When I came into office, there had been 24 credit downgrades and 20 years of unbalanced budgets.
I’m proud to say that under my administration, we’ve achieved eight consecutive balanced budgets and 12 consecutive credit rating upgrades.

It's strange how Democratic Socialists - who are being denounced by both parties - turned major deficits into balanced budgets in both New York and Seattle.
BREAKING: In Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson's new proposed city budget being released Tuesday, there is no projected deficit through 2030. Given the state of the projected deficit over the past many years, this is quite an achievement.

Really wish people would stop talking about the problem with Science under Trump as “budget cuts”.
No. Budgets are set deliberatively by elected members of congress. Budgets haven’t been cut.
What’s happening are *purges* and *censorship*.

Having a confusing time at the “Bigger Paychecks, Smaller Household Budgets” rally
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

Top tips on how to do budgets right
New, from me: I am dorky enough to actually read (ok, skim) budgets, and have never seen anything like Trump’s, which has converted a formal and professional document into a propagandistic screed to justify draconian cuts.
Lets take a look. 🧵

The news media thinks “defund the police” is some form of gotcha but the truth is that police budgets are way too high and teachers’ salaries are way too low.

I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader.
We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash.
ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to.
The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty.

🚨 FLASHBACK: 2011 🚨
In 2011, Congressional Republicans cut their budgets to reduce government spending. 💰✂️
Now, under the Trump Administration’s efforts to reduce spending, who in Congress is willing to do their part again?
Will they cut their budgets or keep spending YOUR tax dollars on waste?

if only there had been a movement and momentum several years ago to downsize police budgets, clear out the white supremacists and de-militarize local law enforcement
The elephant in the room is that mayors and governors across the country have very good reason to question the loyalty and allegiances of the state and local police forces and that’s one of the impediments to doing anything about the current occupations

Most! And the annual NYC municipal budget ($125B) is larger than not just some state budgets but the vast majority of state budgets! bsky.app/profile/most...
Even many governors do not have the same degree of power as the Mayor of NYC.
I think it's good that Mamdani is Just Doing Stuff but more people gotta realize that it is not a matter of Will or motivation or whatever but because the NYC Mayor, as an office, is one of the uniquely powerful individual offices you can hold in the United States (seriously)

"First responders" needs to be abolished from style guides because its purpose is to smuggle cops into a category that includes EMTs and firefighters.
The phrase is deliberate copaganda that allows abusers to borrow an aura of respectability from other groups.
