In his final year as Mayor, Eric Adams and his hand-picked Rent Guidelines Board delivered one last blow to struggling rent-stabilized tenants.
New Yorkers are desperate for city government that lowers costs instead of raising rents. Change is coming.

The vote came after Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic mayoral nomination in part on his promise to install a board that will freeze the rent next year for stabilized apartments.

Watching the Democratic Party establishment fight Zohran Mamdani harder than they’ve fought the GOP and this administration—which have established literal secret police and concentration camps—is something to behold.
Hakeem Jeffries on Mamdani: "'Globalizing the intifada' by way of example is not an acceptable phrasing. He's gonna have to clarify his position on that as he moves forward."

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

<div class="field field-field-text"><p style="margin-bottom:11px">A Michigan court has dismissed all charges against seven students who participated in pro-Palestinian protests last year.</p>
<p>The group of students were arrested last year after participating in protests against Israel’s war on Gaza broke out at campuses across the country. They faced felony charges of resisting and obstructing police at the University of Michigan and misdemeanor charges of trespassing. They had pleaded not guilty to all the charges.</p>
<p>Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel dropped all charges against the students. While she said she said she stood by her decision to seek felony charges in a statement, she criticized Ann Arbor Judge Cedric Simpson for delays to the case and critics who accused her of bias against Muslims and Arab Americans, she said that she no longer believes “these cases to be a prudent use of my department’s resources, and, as such, I have decided to dismiss the cases.”</p>
