I weigh Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral win against NYPD’s surveillance muscle and ask whether a progressive platform can work with Jessica Tisch’s hard-data approach. Then we react to another GTA 6 delay and debate whether a $20,000 home robot is help or a privacy hazard.

• mandate from a three-way race and decision to keep Jessica Tisch
• scope of NYPD surveillance and post‑9/11 legacy
• warrants, oversight, and data retention limits as safeguards
• protests, campus security, and public trust
• civilian response units for non‑police calls
• GTA 6 delay to November 2026 and fan fatigue
• home robot costs, capabilities, and privacy trade‑offs
