Speaking at the West Side Institutional Synagogue, Stringer said Cuomo promised to launch a major effort against rising Jew-hatred, backed by fundraising and public campaigns. Instead, Stringer charged, “he never lifted a finger” and turned the group into “a vehicle for his mayor’s race.”

Stringer, a former city comptroller and Manhattan borough president, also criticized Cuomo’s silence after Hamas’ October 7 terror attacks, calling it a betrayal. “He sold us all a bill of goods in our darkest moment, during our hour of need,” he said.
Quoting the Talmud, Stringer warned congregants to “be careful about the government,” saying Cuomo’s support for the Jewish community is opportunistic.
Cuomo’s campaign responded with a statement from Assemblyman Sam Berger, who defended the former governor’s record and accused Stringer of aligning with anti-Israel forces.
Cuomo continues to hold a strong lead in the polls ahead of the June 24 Democratic primary.

Look who is calling the kettle black…Stringer, Nadler, Schumer…these are the “Jews” who are principally Democrats and use their “Jew”ish background only to serve their democratic values…
I don’t like Stringer but of couse Coumo is a faker. Did we all foregt yeshivagate under Governer Antichos?
Cuomo’s awn Antisemitism radiated when he deliberately targeted the frum community across the sate during Covid. (You’ll find those articles on this very site by doing a search.) Speaking of that, I don’t care who else you vote for, but it’s ASUR GAMUR TO VOTE FOR THAT ELEDERLY MASS MANSLAUGHTERER! His gentrocide signed edicts needlessly killed tens of thousands most vulnerable New Yorkers in nursing homes and brazenly lied about it in Congress. All is info is public record for thise who care to open their eyes.
Cuomo is a lowlife piece of garbage.
I just don’t see how anyone with half brain could vote for Cuomo.
Correct. In his case it a chazakah on the kashrus of Chazir,
All Stringer ever does is whine. Wah, wah, wah. Never an idea as to how to improve things, and in all the years he has been pulling a public paycheck has accomplished zilch for yidden or any other New Yorker. I am not a fan of Cuomo but if the choice came down between Stringer or Cuomo, I would vote for Cuomo. Yes there are plenty of problems in his past, particularly around Covid, but he built the new train station, new LGA, got the 2nd Ave subway underway, saw the new tunnel to GCT from the LIRR and replaced the Tappan Zee Bridge. That is a record of public works’ accomplishment that cannot be dismissed out of hand. Stringer would be like another Abe Beame (yes, I am that old to remember Abe and his shiksa wife), sit around and blame everyone else while the city continues to collapse around him.
Every Yid’s a big tzaddik.
Every Orthodox yid that is, ya big dummy!
Beside the Muslim running for Mayor, Cuomo is the biggest antisemite. It was not long ago. that he went on television and acussed . Chasidim of spreading Covid because they attended funerals, prayed in shuls, not in their homes, attended funerals, kept their Yeshivot open. He hastened the deaths of 15000 nursing home patiwnts by ordering
inside their nursing J I mes. homes.
If you’re reading this comment, and you are in NYC, run for mayor. I can’t do it because I would have to give up my career path (training to be a superhero) but if you’re not spending all day at the gym, you have time to be mayor instead. Normally you might think you’re not qualified, especially since you chose to wear that shirt today, but look who’s running!
As much as I hate cuomo I can jog vote for the Jew boy. He was vocal in his opposition to Isreal and his support for Hamas. His statements about Jews should be read by all. Mr stringer a is a socialist and Jewish anti semite just as Schumer and company are
Cuomo’s mother was born a Jew and Shmad herself. I met her 30 or 40 years ago and she told me this.
Our community leaders support cuomo so I’m with him
Gave up on voting system a while agothey’re all the same, we need a strong monarch
