On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

My Transition Co-chair Lina Khan and First Deputy Mayor Dean Fuleihan joined Starbucks workers on the picket line today because making NYC affordable means an end to unfair labor practices and a living wage for our workers. We are their partners in the fight to live in this city with dignity.

“I knew that if I stayed at Yale, there would be pressure not to bring the Trump administration’s wrath onto Yale. I knew that Yale would try to normalize the situation, escape being in the press, urge us to see the fascists as just politically different, and talk about polarization.”
I study fascism. I’ve already fled America.
On this week’s “More To The Story,” former Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains his recent move to Canada and calls the Trump administration’s takeover of the US government a “coup.”

In the wake of the Trump administration’s announcement that it will overturn the rule which underpins virtually all US climate regulations, a Senate committee has launched an investigation into a suspected lobbying push that led to the move.

From our friends at the @theguardian.com:
Senate committee seeks intel on polluters' efforts to kill critical EPA rule
The "endangerment" finding, which says greenhouse gases harm Americans' health, underpins many regulations.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

As the Trump administration vows to undertake a sweeping crackdown on liberal orgs in the wake of Charlie Kirk's death, the DOJ is now suing two blue states, Maine and Oregon, to attempt to gain access to their full, unredacted voter registration lists.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

The silencing of Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert, not to mention CBS’s editorial bending-of-the-knee, are the most noteworthy and shocking examples of true CENSORSHIP in my lifetime. We are on a slippery slope, folks. And it doesn’t lead to a good place.

Jimmy Kimmel really didn’t even say anything false. It’s objectively true that Republicans were doing all they could to distance themselves from Tyler Robinson, that’s just a fact

Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...
Reinstate Jimmy Kimmel and stop caving to authoritarian censorship!

This Kimmel situation is alarming and more ppl need to take it seriously. Im pleading for "cancel culture is ruining comedy" comedians to literally use their microphones to loudly and repeatedly say how wrong this is

“I Who Have Never Known Men,” an obscure dystopian novel published in 1995, sold 100,000 copies in the U.S. alone in 2024. “I’m not surprised,” Carmen Maria Machado writes. “After all, it’s a book about finding yourself at the end of the world.”
