President Donald Trump says he will slash New York City funding if Zohran Mamdani wins. The city’s budget for fiscal year 2026 includes more than $7 billion in federal funds.

As the beloved Amazin's open a crucial homestead, we took a subway ride to Citi Field with a man on whose arm depends everything. The ride, at least, was no big deal for this veteran commuter.

Monday night’s one hour rainfall in NYC ranked 2nd…Only behind Ida. That this happened without a tropical system is significant and shows our new reality. The top 3 wettest one hour rainfalls for NYC in the past 156 years have all happened in the past four years.

Other big difference is fall-off between rounds. 140k other ballots did not choose Adams or Garcia (about 90k with Wiley as their last choice.)
This time, just 50k.

Yeah it’s election season. Yeah it’s budget season. But the real question on New Yorker’s mind is how will @benmax.bsky.social and @spectrumnewsny1.bsky.social’s Off Topic/On Politics resolve their shared use of the same open license intro and outro music for their podcasts?

Who is writing these skeets? They must be very funny and also deeply in tune with the city budget.
The New York City Charter has 79 chapters—not one of them says you can’t get a boba tea and chill in City Hall Park on your lunch break. Coincidence? We think not.

NEW: Just days after Trump administration officials said they would suspend funding to NYC used to house and assist migrants, FEMA revoked $80 million in payments that had already cleared.

Got to catch up on FAQ NYC yesterday and this is a great ep on the current state of play in the upcoming NYC election season.
Sally Goldenberg, the senior New York Editor at Politico, joins the FAQ NYC hosts to talk about the embattled mayor’s health news and much more, including why Andrew Cuomo remains the non-candidate to beat.

A note on the 1st part: City capital is a mess from a transparency standpoint. There’s a lot that could be done on that front, but tying it directly to a technical appropriation structure would significantly limit flexibility of funds and likely to have unintended consequences w/o charter changes.

Peek the @nycibo.bsky.social shoutout in the Comptroller’s press release on the prelim budget. There’s been a bit of a Kansas City shuffle on the costs of asylum seekers. You can read more at ibo.nyc.gov.
