As a Lakers fan living in NYC. Let’s fuckin go Knicks!!!!!

Which is the backwards country now, United States?

Last month, NYC Released a Preliminary Racial Equity Plan. This is an exciting commitment The NYC Commission on Racial Equity is hosting townhalls to collect feedback from New Yorkers! Manhattan is tonight. www.eventbrite.com/e/manhattan-...

For the past month education advocates, free speech advocates, and unions have come together to oppose the NYC Council’s “buffer zone bills,” which were designed to empower NYPD to shut down and criminalize free speech. Mayor Mamdani vetoed one of the bills today. www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...

Ramadan ends tonight & I’m getting the usual questions, so lemme clear things up. If anyone says “Eid Mubarak,” to you, here are perfectly good replies: •Eid Kareem! •Khair Mubarak! •Eid Mubarak to you! •I will buy you tacos for Eid!❤️ (OK last one may be apocryphal but I stand by it😅) EID MUBARAK!

I need to raise 3k more today and it is already almost 9 pm. My team is presssssssed.

In a hell of a backtrack, CM Salaam said a few hours after my reporting that he actually supports the “final” version of the legislation he earlier described as a “skeleton” and “not there yet.” Says he’ll vote for them. The legislation he’ll vote for is unchanged from that “skeleton.”

Somebody needs to call Afroman to come to NYC and make diss tracks on all the city council members trying to pass bills to limit our free speech rights.

🚨 IT'S ELECTION DAY 🚨 This is it. Today decides everything. Let's make it count: Knock doors, make calls, talk to your friends, and make sure everyone you know in IL-09 makes their voice heard!

New Yorkers please sign up for a few shifts this week. Enormously helpful! lindsey-boylan-for-city-council.solidarity.tech/lindsey-boyl...

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence. And then he bragged about it on X later.

Four more!!!!!!!!

Some people in NYC have more smoke for kids throwing snowballs than the pedophiles in the Epstein files. 🧐🤨

Making people pay for street parking in this gridlocked city? That could generate $1.3 billion—yes, billion—each year. And unlike taxing the rich, this revenue idea is completely within the City's power to implement. Now we're talking! hellgatenyc.com/feed-the-met...

My friend @cynthianixon.bsky.social knows what it means to fight. She is seen as a North Star in progressive politics for a reason. From her fight for economic justice to advocating for the rights of all New Yorkers, I am beyond humbled to call her my friend and honored to have her support.

This is a huge win for educational equity and academic freedom. Lots of gratitude to those fighting on the front lines in court to reject this racist agenda from the Trump administration. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

After years of watching former Mayor Eric Adams defund and decapitate the Department of Transportation, we were pleasantly surprised by Mayor Zohran Mamdani's "down payment," on ramping up staff and funding for the agency. nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/02/18/w...

Governor Hochul does not support the New York Health Act, but her primary challenger @delgadoforny.bsky.social does (as does @indiab.bsky.social). Along with #NY4All, climate, and of course #TaxTheRich, moving NY towards universal health care is another live issue in the gubernatorial primary.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

I could say many bad true things about the governor's record, but I'll share just one, relevant to this: Hochul got her first 15 minutes of fame as county clerk for refusing to follow state law requiring her to process driver's licenses for undocumented people. She does not care about immigrants.

The Trump administration has declared war on the American people. The death, violence, and terrorism being perpetrated by his administration will only get worse. The Democrats are complicit. We are the only ones who can keep each other safe. These are going to be dark times.

We have a huge opportunity to reshape how NYC schools operate. Instead of focusing on serving a select few, we need a system that is designed to serve the many. The research is clear on this. www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2026...

I’ve known Kamar for many years and he is a great choice to lead our school system. He’s a strong instructional leader, a skilled coalition builder, and someone that is committed to equity and integration. I’m excited to see his leadership unfold as our Chancellor.

Yes! We need bold leadership right now. Lindsey is ready to go.

It was a good day in NYC. The Council passed many good bills, including: • The pro-community land trust Community Opportunity to Purchase Act; • The overdue Street Vendors Licenses for All Act; and • The Safer Sanctuary Act. PS: @council.nyc.gov's account is informative and funny—worth a follow

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov. He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker. This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

I'm searching Getty Images and found some photos credited to the Boston Herald that redact the faces of ICE/federal agents. They don't redact the face of the guy they're arresting. I'm curious about the ethics of doing this. I don't think I've ever seen this on Getty before.

Yikes. (via @steverattner.bsky.social)

It’s an absolute honor to serve on Mayor-elect Mamdani’s transition team. We have lots of work to do, and I couldn’t be more proud to stand alongside many of my education justice comrades to help usher in a new era for NYC government! The work is just getting started!! Let’s go!

Primary Schumer.

Stephen Miller endorses Andrew Cuomo.

Yall aren’t on IG, so here’s a GOTV I did with … @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. No, seriously. Go to zohranfornyc.com/GOTV and let’s get it done.

Live at the Garden with @thekidmero.bsky.social #NewYorkForever

So the World Series MVP is an… immigrant

Fresh off a 2-peat World Series win for the Dodgers and 10 days of travel, it was an absolute privilege to cast my vote (on the WFP line) for our next mayor @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! Inwood early voting site was poppin! Lesssss goooo! #Zohran4NYC #SayNoToCuomo

I'd respect Schumer more if he simply said, "Look, if I vote for & support Mamdani, then we lose immense funding from billionaire donors. I can't take that risk." That way, while still abject cowardice, at least his view is honest. As low as the bar is, I prefer an honest coward to a deceptive one.

Big respect to the Blue Jays. What an amazing series. Some of the best baseball I’ve ever seen. #ILoveLA

Currently on pins and needles because this game is so close and my Dodgers are making me nervous. But holy shit this has been one of the best World Series I’ve ever seen.

Did I just sign up to canvass for the first time ever for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social? Yes. Did my son just meet Mamdani in our hood? Also yes. Did I get to watch a filming of his Until It’s Done videos, too? Yes. New York City is the city it says it is.

Happy Halloween! Remember that every fall, immigrants are among the farmworkers who harvest billions (yes, billions!) of pumpkins so families can carve, decorate, and bake their way through the spooky season 🎃 americasvoicecnn.substack.com/p/dont-ghost...
