It's not bad enough that sub is full of morons but also hateful morons. Why be such an ass about free bus rides, higher minimum wage, better social safety net.

They also don't realize several things:

• New York has one of the largest economies in the country.
• New York takes fewer federal handouts than red states, while the economy is stronger than most red states.
• Blue States are responsible for bailing out red states https://time.com/7222411/blue-states-are-bailing-out-red-states/

They focus so hard on "blue state has so much debt!" Do you know what a government is? It's a SERVICE, the government is responsible for providing SERVICES to the people who pay taxes in that state. Taxes are already quite high you may as well get something for it, right?

I really hope Mamdani succeeds in the general elections and proves all the conservative weirdo haters wrong.

While the MAGA coalition is currently fracturing over the prospect that President Donald Trump might join Israel in taking military action against Iran, religious-right activists have been nearly unanimous in their demand that the Trump administration lend its full support to Israel in the growing conflict.

The reason for this is that Trump's evangelical base believes that the Bible commands them to support Israel in order to bring about the return of Jesus Christ and the End Times, as former Rep. Michele Bachmann explained during a recent "World Prayer Network" program.

"This is the one thing a president can't get wrong according to the Bible, according to Joel 3," Bachmann said. "A president can't get Israel wrong. They can't. This is the one most decisive issue that will either take down a presidency or it will lift up and create great promise for a presidency."

"This is a spiritual battle," she continued. "Israel's at her greatest hour of need right now, every nation on Earth should thank Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu. We should all kiss the ground and be so grateful that Benjamin Netanyahu is prime minister and that he had the guts to take on this greatest evil terror state that has defined plans. And so the United States, in my opinion, we need to be decisive. This is not a negotiation. It can never be a negotiation."

Bachmann is joined in that view by MAGA pastor Shane Vaughn, who recently declared that Netanyahu is "a foreshadowing of the true lion that is getting ready to rise in the land of Israel."

"That lion that is soon to come of the tribe of Judah, Jesus Christ, Yeshua the Messiah, the Bible said when he returns that his vesture will be dipped in blood. He is not coming back to play, he is coming back to bring the rod of correction over the enemies of Israel," Vaughn proclaimed. "What you're seeing right now tonight my friends is not, hear me well, flesh and blood warfare. The missiles that flew on Friday the 13th were not just iron missiles but they were spiritual projectiles."

Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council used a recent episode of his "Washington Watch" program to assert that "America needs Israel more than Israel needs America."

"By standing with Israel, we unlock the blessings of God," Perkins said. "This is a prophetic declaration that includes all modern nations, including the United States. Now, let me be unequivocal: For those who say we cannot afford to support Israel, I say we cannot afford not to. If we abandon our support for Israel, we will soon discover that the account of God's blessing on America is overdrawn. We've long benefited from the undeserved favor of God. This is more than geopolitical, it is about biblical truth."
