True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing.

Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter.

Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧵

Suffice it to say DoorDashing Dominos pizza is not humanitarian food assistance best practice.

@ndhapple.bsky.social Sorry NYC related ? Has NYPD decided to crack down on food trucks. Several food trucks towed in last few days in sunset park. Strange time to target immigrant run businesses. @brooklynspoke.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social

It's unclear to me why the US Congressmen are not escorted by big armed cops to push through obstacles to them exercising their legal rights, and instead everyone now defers to the guys with no uniforms or badges or name tags to determine what is and is not legal?
In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.
Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

DO NOT RANK CUOMO - make the owners & leadership of the NYT cry
During Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani's whirlwind rise in the New York City mayoral race, he has put forth a wish list of big ideas, including freezing rents for stabilized apartments. The proposals have energized his base, but their ambition could exceed the ability of any mayor to see them through.
Mamdani Has a Thin Legislative Record but Is a Forceful Voice in Albany

as others have pointed out, NYT never saw it as reflecting on US Zionism when an Illinois man stabbed a 6-year-old Palestinian kid, or when a Florida man mistook two Israelis for Palestinians and shot at them, or when a Palestinian student was murdered in Vermont

There are millions of people on the verge of losing their Medicaid coverage, and for many of them, dying themselves, who just saw that reality get a little easier because three Democrats with cancer decided to run for re-election and died in office. Impossible for me to have sympathy in this moment.

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20?

It is very telling that the same people who insist Americans do not understand the word “oligarchy” think that the way to convince people that the economy is good when they think it’s bad is to wave charts of macroeconomic data at them.

George W. Bush was the worst President of the last few generations and it's really not close. what we in the US are (rightly!) up in arms about is that Trump is the worst President for us, specifically - which is a different thing
(Me, a genius) I see no through line with how George W Bush, who legalized torture through illegal means and illegally invaded a country and killed millions of people, is connected to the current moment
