I'm obsessed with the evolving story of Eric Adams' aide's sour cream & onion failed bribe... & the hilariously BAD explanations (first it was "chinese culture" & now supposedly a birthday gift 🙈🤣 ). The reporter's bday is reportedly in Nov! nypost.com/2025/08/22/u...
Exclusive | Ex-Adams adviser Winnie Greco claims cash-stuffed chip bag she gave to NYC reporter was ‘birthday gift’
Greco, when reached by The Post heading to her car in the Bronx, launched into a baffling explanation for giving cash to giving the bag to The City reporter Katie Honan.

This is deeply authoritarian. The regime is now arresting a former City Council president for organizing a protest against ICE.
This morning, federal agents arrested & search homes of multiple people who were protesting against ICE arrests in Spokane on June. This is a photo from the father of one of the protesters

Today marks 9 YEARS since Delrawn Small was gunned down by NYPD Wayne Isaacs.
It's also Win Rozario's bday, also killed by NYPD. Win should've been celebrating 21 today.
Cops still haven't been fired (discipline reviews "ongoing"?! 🤬)

Police violence is out of control and cops still have way too much unchecked power but NYS court upholding #repeal50a is a helpful thing in the context of Trump trying to erase all evidence of police violence.
Yesterday, the Trump admin deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct.
In New York, however, the state's highest court handed down two victories for police transparency. It held that pre-reform and "unsubstantiated" complaints are both subject to disclosure.

Tim Pearson, who wielded power in/wrt NYPD while he was part of Eric Adams' admin even tho he was no longer technically NYPD. Also accused of sexual misconduct (with at least 4 lawsuits pending related to that). Long-time crony of Eric Adams (Pearson was Adams' CO at NYPD).

If accurate, this promises to be even more of a mess than if Hochul just removed Adams (which she should).
NY1 reports that Hochul is looking to introduce "legal sanctions" on Mayor Eric Adams that would limit his power, rather than removing him from office. The sanctions would probably require approval from the state Legislature and City Council & could drive him to resign. ny1.com/nyc/all-boro...
Sources: Hochul considering 'legal sanctions' on Mayor Adams
The governor is expected to unveil the details soon.
