It provides more time to implement a new law rather than just slamming the door and prompting huge, depilating expenses.

* Businesses must follow truth-in-advertising laws so they cannot deceive customers about what they are buying.
* Businesses must meet federal safety standards for products so they don't sell dangerous or defective items that hurt people.
* Businesses cannot collude with competitors to fix prices because it unfairly destroys competition and drives up costs for regular people.
* Businesses must pay licensing fees to use copyrighted music, software, or designs so they don't steal and profit from another person's work.
* Food and beverage businesses must pass regular health inspections to ensure they don't serve contaminated food that makes the public sick.
* Businesses must securely store customer credit cards and personal info so that hackers cannot steal identities and commit financial fraud.
* Businesses cannot discriminate based on race, gender, or religion when hiring or serving customers so everyone has equal access to jobs and services.
* Businesses must ensure their premises are physically accessible to people with disabilities so no one is excluded from public commerce.
* Businesses must clearly disclose all interest rates and hidden fees when offering customer financing so buyers aren't trapped in predatory debt.
* Skilled workers like barbers, plumbers, and mechanics must maintain state licenses to prove they won't endanger or defraud the public through bad work.
Major Zohran Mamdani is eliminating lots of regulation that is NOT designed to protect Consumers, Workers, Competitors, Innovators, Local communities or The public health, but has skewed to favor large corporations instead. Or they are indeed intended to protect the citizens, but their implementation was very inefficient. He manages to simplify or eliminate regulation, WITHOUT negative effects on the people who regulations should protect.
The Newsmax article focuses entirely on financial relief for supermarkets, failing to mention significant downsides for the environment, public health, workers, and industry innovators. By delaying the transition away from high-potency hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants from 2027 to 2032, the rule change allows super-pollutants that trap thousands of times more heat than carbon dioxide to leak into the atmosphere for an extra five years, worsening the long-term public health impacts of climate change.
Furthermore, the decision actively punishes domestic manufacturers and innovators who already spent billions of dollars to develop eco-friendly alternatives ahead of the original deadline, leaving their investments stranded while foreign competitors advance.
Finally, changing the rules mid-game creates confusion for HVAC technicians and workers trying to manage inconsistent standards, and because the legal supply of legacy chemicals is still shrinking, the delay could actually trigger severe supply shortages and higher repair bills for local businesses.
Potassium bromate is already banned in the EU, Canada, China, India, and California because of cancer concerns. This would be something that Robert F. Kennedy Jr would ban, if he actually believed in protecting the citizens from harmful chemicals in food.
from being poisoned, and he didn't get it. He's defending deregulation, by saying
that the poor 'small' business New York Pizza will be harmed, if the evil socialist
forces them to stop poisoning consumers. And it isn't even true.
No sign of understanding that this wasn't his best argument ever
and no sign that he will learn anything from being this wrong either.
If these owners of pizza restaurants don't know how to make a pizza without potassium bromide maybe they should consider a career change.
It's like when Domino's famously overhauled its entire core recipe in the US around 2009 to 2010 after publicly admitting their crust "tasted like cardboard", their expansion into Europe required a completely different, long-term operational
and chemical shift.
Here's what Domino's had to do to get Europeans to eat their pizza:
1. Cleaner Ingredients (Regulatory Adjustments): American fast-food dough relies heavily on sugars, artificial dough conditioners, and preservatives to survive long shipping times. Because European Union regulations strictly restrict or ban many
of these chemicals, Domino's had to completely strip down its recipe to a much simpler, cleaner formula.
2. Less Sugar, Lighter Texture (Taste Preferences): European consumers overwhelmingly rejected the heavy, dense, and sweet "cake-like" crusts popular in the United States. To match local continental palates, the company formulated lighter, crispier, and more authentic "Italian-style" thin crusts.
3. Fresh, Local Supply Chains (Logistical Shift): In the U.S., dough is heavily chilled and shipped long distances from centralized factories. Because Europeans expect fresh bread, Domino's had to reinvent its logistics by building local regional hubs
in Europe to deliver fresh, unfrozen dough daily, or by shifting to mixing the dough directly inside the local stores.
Having worked in Italian/Pizzarestaurants for decades I can assure you that undercooked pizza is not as uncommon as you may think.

It will be very easy to attack Paxton on his record of rank corruption.
Exactly the type of opponent that a real populist can use to his advantage.
Even if Talarico loses, it will cost a fortune in attack ads, that takes away from others.
one American 🇺🇸 talking about the problems here
And 2 commie bastards bashing him
These people think it is perfectly fine for muslims to kill over 3000 people in 1 city and then 25 years later literally be running that same city they tried to destroy.
Please explain to me how that makes sense?
Fucking dumb ass Democrats
fulfilling his campaign promises, while serving the Rule of Law and The Constitution.
People are not defined by their religion, but by their actions. If you cared about
The Constitution, you would understand that.
I am not fine with a traitor who attempted a coup, lying his ass off to fool the people into voting for him, while a billionaire is spending hundreds of millions in an illegal bribing campaign, then directly after getting elected starting to misuse his powers, abusing the immunity he got from his political pawns, and doing the exact opposite of everything
he promised and promised not to do.
Trump had used the term "peacefully" or similar just ONE time.
Trump had used the term "Fight" or variations like "fighting" 20 times.
He is just a stupid parrot and him having been there is irrelevant.

The Speaker of the House does not have the constitutional or statutory authority to command, deploy, or decline the National Guard. Because Washington, D.C. is not a state, the D.C. National Guard answers directly to the President, who delegates that command to the Secretary of the Army (Ryan McCarthy) and the Secretary of Defense (Christopher Miller).
Capitol security is managed by the Capitol Police Board, which on January 6th consisted of the Capitol Police Chief, the House Sergeant at Arms, and the Senate Sergeant at Arms. While the House Sergeant at Arms reported to Pelosi, the Senate Sergeant at Arms reported to Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. There is no evidence in the official DoD or Capitol Police logs that a formal request for 10,000 troops was ever submitted to or blocked by Pelosi or McConnell prior to the event.
His claim "I was there, so I know that it's Pelosi's fault!" is BULLSHIT.
He is just parroting the lies of your corrupt partisan media.
But, yes, the calls of Pelosi and Schumer went unanswered for a long time.
According to the official Department of Defense (DoD) logs and congressional investigations, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer called the Pentagon at 3:19 p.m. to frantically demand immediate military backup.
The calls made by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senator Chuck Schumer, and other congressional leaders to the Pentagon were answered, and the Department of Defense (DoD) did eventually act on them. However, there was a 3.5-hour delay between the time the Capitol perimeter was breached and the time the National Guard actually arrived on the scene.
The delay was caused by the following chain of events:
Political Hesitation Over "Optics": Top Army generals delayed approval because they were intensely worried about the political appearance of sending heavily armed, uniform military forces into the U.S. Capitol, fearing it would look like a military coup or escalate the riot.
Paralyzing Bureaucracy: Rather than issuing an immediate command to move, Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy forced the D.C. National Guard to stay on "standby" for over two hours while a rigid, formal tactical operational plan was drafted and routed through the Pentagon chain of command.
Logistical Re-Equipping: The 340 Guardsmen already on the streets of D.C. that morning had been strictly ordered by the Pentagon to remain completely unarmed and handle traffic control. When the crisis hit, these troops had to be recalled to the D.C. Armory, completely re-equipped with riot shields, armor, and gear, and briefed on an entirely new mission before they could deploy.
President Trump did NOT make any calls to order or accelerate the deployment during the attack. The final order to clear the Capitol was pushed forward by Vice President Mike Pence from his secure bunker, and Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller eventually signed the official deployment order at 4:32 p.m., leading to the Guard's arrival at 5:20 p.m.
Basically, it took the National Guard so long to react to an ongoing coup attempt,
because they were afraid that your side would accuse them of a military coup or
that they were forced to create a bloodbath to stop it. What the fuck is their job?

If employers treated their employees fairly, you wouldn't have a need for unions.
--------------------------------------- added after 11 hours
Personally, I'm not a member of a union, because my employer treats its employees fairly. My girlfriend is a member of a union, because her employer treats its employees less fairly.
Most employers in the US treat their employees a lot less fairly than my girlfriend's employer.
Therefore, I encourage American employees to be a member of a union.
It's possible that some American unions suck, or have horrible management. If so, find one that is better, or organize your collective union membership to make it better, or join or organize the creation of a new union.
When other people disrespect your life, livelihood and property.
When do you need unions?
When your employers disrespect your life, livelihood and property.
You are supporting a president who is 'defunding' the 'employer police'.
And you think that employees shouldn't organize their own.
That's asking for employers who disrespect the life, livelihood and property
of employees EVEN MORE.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By the way the slogan 'defund the police' was not about dismantling the police, it was about transferring tasks away from the armed police, including the funds related to those tasks, TOWARDS OTHER specialized public services like mental health responders, social workers, housing support, and crisis intervention teams. The reason is to achieve that many nonviolent social and mental-health crises are handled more safely and effectively by specialized public services, than by armed police trained primarily for enforcement and control.
“If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
Police are trained for enforcement, so when they handle social crises, they may treat them as threats requiring force, instead of care or service problems, which often result in unnecessary escalation, injury, trauma, or death, including cases where autistic children or people in mental-health crises have been shot and/or killed by police.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trump is 'DEFUNDING THE EMPLOYER POLICE'.

- Current condition: Weakened
Department of Justice Civil Rights Division
- Shift away from systemic discrimination and workplace civil-rights enforcement
- Current condition: Politically reshaped in a way critics argue reduces protections
for workers facing discrimination
Federal Railroad Administration
- Deregulatory and industry-friendly policy direction
- Current condition: Weakened on enforcement priorities
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
- Deregulatory and industry-friendly policy direction
- Current condition: Weakened regulatorily
Securities and Exchange Commission
- More business-friendly enforcement priorities
- Reduced emphasis on aggressive corporate accountability
- Current condition: Less aggressive toward corporations and executives

The Trump administration is NOT transferring tasks away from these employee protections towards OTHER services, they are JUST damaged or decimated.

Income from a job is not all about the hourly wage.
It is about the benefits as well. Such as the retirement I am finally able to draw,and the health care .
If employes make themselves valuable to the employer, they will earn a decent wage. If they go in to work with a newspaper and coffee cup and sit on their ass, they don't.
You haven't been around postal workers have you? Laziest bunch of sumbitches that ever drew a breath. and it takes a act of God to fire them. theft, can't fire, come to work dressed like a freak, can't fire them, don't half work, can't fire them. You almost have to kill someone while on the job to even be drug tested, because of the damn union.
You would think he is a billionaire shareholder, instead of low-income working class
who was almost killed by a system that shits on the working class.
in the world, paid for out of people's paychecks to enrich the shareholders of
insurance companies.
By letting employers provide employees health insurance, they have leverage
over their employees, which reduces the negotiation power of employees and
restricts the movement of employees to better jobs.
This reduces the competition of employers for working people, resulting in lower pay
and lesser benefits.
You are just so warped by your system you can't see the forest for the trees. EARN your wage, don't demand it.
Be worth what you get paid, if you willingly don't give a job your best, you don't deserve it.
They have to pay for it somehow and it's not coming out of their profit.
The difference that you don't see, is the difference between you and me.
Using the latest KFF employer benefits data (2025):
Single coverage:
Total annual premium: $9,325
Employee pays ~$1,440 (about 16%)
Employer pays ~ $7,885/year per employee (about 84%)
Family coverage:
Total annual premium: $26,993
Employee pays ~$6,850 (about 25–26%)
Employer pays ~ $20,143/year per employee with family coverage (about 74–75%)
Netherlands (basic insurance):
Average 2025 monthly premium: about €156–€158/month per adult
Annual premium: about €1,870–€1,900/year
Our plan continues, if we switch employer or lose our job.
There are people in the US who are working while having stage 3 cancer,
because they fear getting fired and lose their health insurance.

rather pathetic, he is supposed to support his city and it's people.
“ New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has made a definitive decision. He will not attend the Israel Day Parade on May 31. This single act marks him as the first mayor in 61 years to ever skip this pivotal event.
Yet, there's a crucial distinction he wants you to understand. Mayor Mamdani has confirmed that the city will still provide full security for the parade. All necessary permits will be issued, ensuring the event can proceed safely.”
He’s not stopping the parade and he’s providing full security and proper permits. The parade or one of its forms was started in 1964 to recognize Israel and show support by United States Jews. That’s okay. We have thousands of parades from religious to sexual orientation types. This mayor is a Muslim and such he has every right not to attend the celebration of a state deeply opposed to his ethnicity. HE is the one not going, not the city.
Your comment showed how biased you are against this man because of his religion. That, sir, shows your character.

Celebrating the creation of the state of Israeli has NOTHING to do with that.
Most New Yorkers don't support Israel's Zionism.
That's one of the reasons for why they voted for him.
Major Zohran Mamdani is a progressive Democrat and he is representing democratic, progressive values, which means rejecting Israel's genocide. He is NOT joining a celebration of 'love for Israel', to cuddle the pro-genocide crowd.
By attending that celebration, he would reject all the New Yorkers who do NOT support
the actions of Israel, which is the large majority of Democratic voters and even the large majority of the American people.
U.S.-wide Gallup polling on Israel’s military action in Gaza found:
32% approve
60% disapprove
Zohran Mamdani is doing a terrific job in New York.
He has already solved the $12 billion deficit that he inherited.
He did that, without cutting ANY important services that his people rely on.
He has secured $1.2 billion for the Universal Child Care he promised.
He is going after scummy landlords.
He has fixed 100,000 potholes in his first 100 days.
He is funding public libraries with $31.7 million.
He is supporting small businesses by slashing red tape, reducing fines, and revamping funding.
The city helped mom-and-pop shops avoid more than $6 million in fines and fees through 1,100 advisory visits. This builds on his Executive Order designed to simplify more than 6,000 city regulations and reduce penalty costs.
He launched an $80 million NYC Future Fund, lowering interest rates to 7.5% and reducing minimum loan sizes to
$25,000 to ensure businesses with lower operating revenues can secure funding.
Through Business Express Service Teams (BEST), the city has provided hundreds of
one-on-one consultations and pro bono legal services to help owners bypass bureaucratic hurdles and costly penalties.
If any Republican politician even came close to supporting their constituents like that, you would praise them to high heaven. You can't do that, because none of them are actually supporting their constituents, but they are paying back their wealthy donors for supporting them, by taking from their constituents and giving presents to the wealthy donors.
"is it not a mayors job to unify his city's people"
Yes, fostering unity is part of a mayor's job—but not the core or overriding one.
What part of that is so hard to understand?
Effective mayors do promote cohesion where possible:
After disasters, riots, or tragedies, symbolic leadership and calm messaging help restore order.
Policies that broadly improve quality of life (lower crime, better schools, jobs, clean streets) create organic unity through shared success rather than rhetoric.
Treating residents as citizens under equal rules, rather than pitting groups against each other (by race, class, ideology, or neighborhood).
treating citizens as equals, um,
He is allowing people their thing. He doesn't have to join it.

take em in,let em out to kill again.
I don't want a punitive system, I want a restorative/preventative justice system.
I want criminals to be rehabilitated and suspects to be innocent until proven guilty,
and not to be detained indefinitely because they might commit a crime in the future.
That could indeed cause some harm, but that is the price of freedom.
You accept a much higher price of the 2nd amendment freedom that you care about.
Why then do I not support the pardoning of the capital attackers?
Because it's not restorative/preventative for a president to give a signal that
committing crimes IN HIS NAME is permitted or even rewarded.
The U.S. recidivism rate is around 70%, while Scandinavian countries typically range from 20% to 40%, depending on the country and measurement method.
A system like theirs is more expensive per convict, but the entire system costs far less overall, because dramatically lower recidivism means:
- fewer people in prison
- shorter sentences
- fewer repeat incarcerations
- lower policing and court costs
- fewer social costs from crime
- less criminals = more productive citizens

Your president and his followers are dangerous lunatics.
