This shows how much he understands NYC. There really is an absurd budget dance every few years with the NYPL funding. Budget is cut, hours open get reduced, then sometimes restored during election years. And all for a relative drop in the bucket.

What statements? In a media environment where he has been so caricatured and lied about, it's really unfair to refer to his "statements" without being specific. And he is very explicit in what he wants to do to combat antisemitism.

I suffered through the article and she actually said "But things like immigration, where I feel like we’re spending a lot of money to ship people back to countries and they’re taxpayers and they’re members of our community and constitutional rights are being violated — that’s a mess."

You end with: "There is also the fact that most people no longer seem to believe in a happy future,” the pope wrote. Aw, Your Holiness, is that really a fact? It really feels like things are starting to get a little better, and may be on path to get a lot better. Have faith." 2015, eh?

Living in a household where Univision is pretty much always on, I have noticed a shift in the last few weeks, at least on the nightly news broadcast. Daily stories of immigrants living in fear. Huge tone shift from before and just after the election.

Just today I happened upon channel 1650, CinePast, on Samsung. They were showing the original Nosferatu. Right now they're showing the original Phantom of the Opera. They had an ad in German for schnitzels!

Not sure if you read the interview, but Bowman was specifically answering a question about Lawler and Torres as potential candidates for governor. Not originating the comparison.

Not sure if you read the NYC comptroller report I linked to. It disaggregates the contribution of undocumented immigrants. And immigrants come here without the Texas buses btw. My life is much richer because of the immigrants around me. And I live near a migrant shelter. But you do you.
