We should really look to what Brandon Johnson and as well as the Chicago Teachers Union is doing to really use the schools and the city as sites of resistance against the federal incursion. If you're comfortable in your coalition, you're not winning power. If ICE and the National Guard are coming to New York City, ICE is already here, if the National Guard is coming on January 1st, which we know they are, we really have to...
Use our tenant associations and our parent-teacher associations and our public schools as networks of defense in support of Saran's agenda and in support of our neighbors. Okay. So the PTA needs to be first line of defense against ICE. I'm looking forward to that in New York City. That's going to go swimmingly well.
I don't think I'm out of my mind. I think that some of those things are certainly not how I would say things today and are regretful. But I do think my sort of decades of experience fighting for more affordable housing sort of stands on its own. I'm proud to be in this role fighting for stronger tenants rights and I think that for many years people have been locked out of the property market that has produced a lot of systemic and racial inequalities in our system.
They have a scofflaw landlord or someone who's not making repairs and they could pressure, you know, using organizing tactics, they could pressure to the social housing development authority to take over their homes, to buy their homes. In other cases, it might happen through like the legal process. A couple of days ago, one of the most notorious landlords in the city, his name is Ope Shalom, he was arrested because he is treating his tenants so badly.
hundreds of thousands of open code violations.

We can say, hey, you know, you are not maintaining this building, and we are the city of New York. We have an interest in making sure that housing is well maintained, and we're going to take this building away from you. Okay. That's going to be a real hit with the landlords of New York, Mark.
Olemme saaneet jatkuvia tapauksia, joissa jotain toimii säästössä. Se on yksityiskohtainen. Se ei ole meidän, eikä me tiedä, kuka se on. Tämä vain, juuri se sanoi, tarvitsee tutkimusta, kiinnitystä ja keskustelua. Jos sinulla on asioita, joita et voi tunnistaa, se on ongelma, koska se voi olla Suomessa tai Ruotsissa tai kuka tahansa. Mitäkään selkeää fenomenoida, joka saa vaikeuden.
Some of the biggest strategic blunders in human history. The foundation of those blunders were a lack of imagination. The belief that an adversary or whoever could not do something because it had never been done before. The US thought it was safe for those ships in Pearl Harbor because we didn't think that the Japanese could get there, much less have torpedoes that could navigate such a narrow strait and hit these ships until they did.
We never thought in our wildest dreams that terrorists would strike us in the homeland by training for a year to become pilots and then hijacking commercial aircraft and crashing them into buildings. And they did. The thing that always keeps me up at night, something in the human...
What do you think, David, that he should do? If Marco Rubio called you tomorrow and said, what should we do about this, what would you say?
