So I have the cover story in next month's TNR. I interviewed the heads of police groups; immigration defense attorneys, ex-judges and ex-prosecutors; former DOJ and DHS officials, and the former head of Border Patrol. They're all horrified at what we've seen, and they all fear what's coming.

then why tf is your chanukiah a symbol of lethal US imperialist terror?

Ten years ago we had Buzzfeed, Gawker, and Vice. Now we have no buzz, no gawk, and no vice.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Will Zohran's NYPD also intervene to prevent ICE watch direct actions?

As immigration courthouse ICE arrests have dipped over the past several weeks, seemingly random ICE arrests appear to be on the rise. Attorneys are calling it “a coordinated campaign of race-based stops in largely Hispanic and immigrant neighborhoods in New York City."

“I considered myself a strong person, a resilient person, but I’ve never gone through something like this... Leave your family out of nowhere, the uncertainty of what’s going to happen to you." www.thecity.nyc/2025/11/26/i...

The problem with center-left parties embracing xenophobic politics is that they are a race to the bottom. There is no point at which the racists that you are pandering to will be okay with the level of immigration. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/27/w...

What ICE did to this family is abhorrent. Also, given that the mayor plans to keep the current police commissioner once he is sworn in, she should probably instruct NYPD to stop being so friendly with ICE every time they're seen together. They tried aiding them in Bensonhurst last night too...

Taking a cue from Chicago, community groups have distributed thousands of whistles in recent weeks — a grassroots system people in other cities have adopted to help neighbors sound the alarm.

The code is not complicated. Short bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street. www.thecity.nyc/2025/11/17/i...

Kind of a big deal that @hellgatenyc.com can confirm that NYC First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro used his position to cancel Kehlani's SummerStage concert in order to punish the artist for their political speech on Palestine: hellgatenyc.com/randy-mastro...

Hakeem Jeffries is about to get a primary challenger. @chiosse.bsky.social will reportedly make an announcement about this in the coming weeks.

Finally someone bold enough to ask, is new york ready for a mayor who opposes slavery? www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/u...

NEW: Republicans are targeting the census -- again. This time, they're going after a little-known algorithmic process called “differential privacy” that helps keep census data anonymous. This would impact a number of vulnerable people, immigrants included. read @telliotter.bsky.social:

"Failed mayor who dropped out of the race after accepting a pardon from Donald Trump in exchange for political favors endorses failed mayoral candidate who lost his primary after resigning as governor 4 years ago amidst 13 credible accusation of sexual harassment and a variety of other scandals."

“Mamdani changed how candidates and donors think about what is politically possible,” Feld said. “We’ve seen that siding with Palestine over Israel doesn’t make you radioactive. It shows voters that you’ll stick to your principles.” via Jake Offenhartz @apnews.com

ZOHRAN: “This is disgusting. These are @andrewcuomo’s final moments in public life and he’s choosing to spend them making racist attacks.”

“Some of the candidate polling lately misconstrues AIPAC for the core issue, when it’s really the continued support for arming Israel that has alienated so many Democratic voters,” Feld told @mondoweiss.net

Game on.

'The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) says that more than 500,000 people in the #Gaza Strip are facing catastrophic conditions characterised by "starvation, destitution&death".' Famine confirmed in Gaza City for the first time by UN-backed body www.itv.com/news/2025-08... #Israel

Leading global experts just confirmed what we’ve long known: Gaza is in famine. At least half a million Palestinians are facing starvation, acute malnutrition and death. And it’s likely to spread. The U.S. government is not a bystander to this genocide. We can end it today.

Agentes enmascarados de ICE están sembrando miedo e inseguridad en nuestras comunidades de Washington, D.C. Esta mañana, un agente de ICE apuntó con una pistola taser a un miembro comunitario que se horrorizó al ver cómo secuestraban agresivamente a un miembro de la comunidad. ¡Chinga la migra!

Meet Shakira. Ten years ago, she was living in a shelter with her three kids, working at a non-union hotel. Now she's a member of HTC. Unions are how working people can build a dignified life. But in a city as expensive as ours, they need local government on their side.

People in the United States promoting Gavin Newsom now might want to look at what Sir Keir Starmer in the United Kingdom has done after gaining power. The two men come from the same factory manufacturing supposed 'Centrist moderates'.

I do think it's interesting how The Times ran a breathless story fed to them by a literal neo-Nazi using hacked materials about Mamdani's demographic data on his Columbia application but held back on this one for a bit. Funny what makes the paper when.

Dr. Mimi Syed is an emergency medicine physician who’s been on two medical missions in Gaza working in hospitals that were under Israeli siege and was just denied reentry into Gaza, mere hours before she was scheduled to travel there for a third medical mission.

Bob Clark, VP of marketing for Herr Foods, Inc., said the company was surprised to see it was mentioned in the press. “While we can’t speak to the details of the story,” he said, “we can confirm that our Sour Cream & Onion flavor is money.” www.thecity.nyc/2025/08/21/w...

Anyone besides me wonder how many outlets ACCEPTED the red envelope w/o comment much less alerting the cops?

Israel murdered Anas al-Sharif and his colleagues because genocide can only proceed without witnesses. Western media outlets have failed to condemn the systematic murder of Palestinian journalists, and in the process have become accomplices. mondoweiss.net/2025/08/the-...
