When a radical leftist steps into power, the result is never pretty—and New York City just got an unfiltered taste of that disaster in the making. Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect who proudly wears his far-left credentials like a badge of honor, has openly admitted he doesn’t have a single clue how to pay for his wildly irresponsible promise to make buses free across the city. That’s right—he wants to shove a $700 million price tag onto taxpayers without offering a workable plan. Instead of accountability, we get the usual leftist song and dance: “It’s not about how we do it, but that we do it.”
This kind of reckless governing isn’t new to Democrat-run cities, but Mamdani takes cluelessness to a whole new level. When pressed on funding, his fallback was to raise the corporate tax. Problem? The state’s own Democrat governor has already shot that idea down. So Mamdani’s big plan for “free” public transit boils down to vaporware—empty promises backed by nothing but wishful thinking. And the media, of course, couldn’t bring themselves to ask these critical questions until after the far-left candidate was safely elected. This is how political corruption works: shovel nonsense to the voters, then kick funding questions down the road.
What’s truly frightening isn’t just the lies—it’s the vision Niagra Falls liberals like Mamdani have for New York: turning it into a full-time homeless encampment on wheels, attracting crime and decay until buses become rolling shelters for the city’s growing derelict population. Free transit isn’t freedom—it’s enabling chaos. And the people who cheer for this nonsense? The affluent, left-wing elites who live far from the blight, buying virtue with other people’s money while the rest of us suffer the consequences.
This disgraceful display also reveals the fundamental flaw in the progressive mindset: they treat budgets like abstract concepts untethered from reality. Mamdani’s attitude—spend first, pay later—proves they’re out of touch with how the real world works. You don’t just decide to fund multi-million-dollar programs on a whim and expect someone else to foot the bill. Yet here we are, with leftists pushing fairy tales while the city crumbles beneath them.
Meanwhile, the broken hearts of hardcore Democrats run deep. No matter how badly their cities deteriorate, these voters cling to the party line because their hatred for Trump and everything “normal” blinds them to reality. They ignore the wreckage because in their distorted world, urban decay “sticks it” to conservatives, no matter the cost to everyday people. But how long before even the most loyal leftists wake up to the disaster their heroes have created? Or will they just keep turning the other cheek as New York’s transit system, and the city itself, descend into chaos?
