Today we discuss New York City Mayor Eric Adams’s decision to seek the involuntary commitment of mentally ill street and subway people. How did we get to this point, and why, and will this help? And is the Senate’s vote to enshrine gay marriage into federal law a landmark—and in what way? Give a listen.

    yeah, it is just a working class republican who was convicted of sedition.  Commentary has no interest in explaining how and when organizing 1st amendment protected protest activity becomes sedition.

    On dealing with homelessness in NYC and unsafe shelters, you have to do obvious things like isolate and punish people who cause problems in the shelters. And of course, get people off the streets.  But you need the people to vote for decent, honest and competent politicians.  Currently that is not possible because the election system is rigged.  Do reporting on the extent to which political parties work to get out the vote.
