And just because someone did something in their past, they can do anything.
And it's like, look, man, I believe that once someone has done the time, then they should be, you know, they should.
enter society again and have their rights restored.
But at the same time, you don't put someone in charge of something like Rikers Island just because he was a former felon and it looks good for the photo op because that's all it is.
This is all about what this is like.
Look at how progressive we are.

someone based on competency you're saying that person's better than this other person and we're all the same it's the it's the whole blank slate idea from the left it's a terrible way to run a society but that's what the left wants but that's that's exactly why the left has so many failures when it comes to governing they can't govern at all because they think oh well we'll just put our buddies in charge that happened in the soviet union it happened it happens in china and then they kill all their their friends but like
If I understand correctly, that's the way that most socialist governments work.
They hire their pals because they don't want to go and say, oh, well, competency is important.
This guy that Mamdani hired to run Rikers, he did it because it looks good and it doesn't matter what his life was before.
