I’m old enough to remember that Chuck Schumer once spent years relentlessly fighting for a cause. I can clearly recall him using every leverage point at his disposal and employing a few dirty tricks. Unfortunately, that fight was against a bike lane on his street, right in front of Prospect Park.

The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.

For no particular reason tonight I’m reminded that Chuck Schumer runs all of his decision-making through an imaginary Republican family that lives in a LI suburb where 1.1% of the residents are Black, 97% live in a SFH they own, and 3% are under the poverty line www.newyorker.com/magazine/200...

this is correct. the democrats regularly have more heat for the left wing of their party than they do the GOP.

Hi @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social! If you vote for this horrible deal, I will spend the next 4 years making sure you are both primaried and retired from the US Senate.

Senator did you ever get to the bottom of what was happening with the drones

….but as one Bills’ championship window closes it looks like another one’s opens? 🕶️

I would love to be proven wrong but that creaking noise you are hearing might be the Bills’ championship window starting to close

The New York Times is the latest outlet to make an embarrassing apples-and-oranges error when catastrophizing over enrollment declines. This compares district + charter enrollment in 2020 to district-only enrollment in 2025, and as a result a lie was printed in the newspaper

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Pope said 6-7

Cuomo should’ve been impeached and he should’ve faced drumbeat media and civic leader pressure to drop out of the mayoral race but hopefully this will be strike 3, although it is a favorable map for him

Remember the rules as the 2026 campaigns kick off—you’re way out of line to question whether this paper’s straight-news coverage is on the level and even more out of line to think it has any impact on meta-coverage or the electorate, it’s all very normal, just carry on

The teams ranked, 1-30, as the off-season gets going -- meaning Schwarber is not a Phillie, Alonso isn't a Met, etc. Where do they start, and what do they need? --> www.mlb.com/news/where-e...

“For example, Nassau County and Suffolk County on Long Island permitted just 5 and 3 homes per 1,000 residents, respectively, [between 2017 and 2021].” Good luck with your campaign Nassau County!

8 months of running for mayor under so much scrutiny and not a single outlet thought to attempt to answer the question: hey what might happen if a guy who resigned amid numerous credible accusations of sexual misconduct wins and is back in office with hundreds of female subordinates?

Same shot about an hour later

The first major failure of the Mamdani administration

The town where Sherwood Anderson grew up and the model for the fictional Winesburg, Ohio

Oh jeez…..

Time for another look at the headwinds that “bitter clingers” and “deplorables” will create for the Democratic Party in 2026 and beyond!

Post you from a different era 1995, fresh off the boat

Politicians like Cuomo are a relic of the past. (Did I want to title this one “Don’t Let The Door Hit You On The Way Out”? Yes, I did.) www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/o...

Yeah, I can see the case for paying the mayor more but I just want to remind everyone that our previous $300,000/year police chief resigned for allegedly repeatedly forcibly sodomizing a subordinate in his office during work hours as part of an OT fraud scheme that bumped her pay to $425,000

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Rich Azzopardi don’t be an asshole even just one time challenge (impossible)

Federal immigration authorities are trying to poach New York City police officers with social media ads that suggest the NYPD doesn't respect them or their families. https://gothamist.com/news/ice-targets-nypd-officers-with-ads-claiming-the-agency-offers-respect

Trump take the freaking Farmers’ Almanac

Another pedestrian murdered by a car that should have been booted, impounded, and auctioned, but in this case probably wasn’t because it’s a commercial vehicle and/or has out of state plates howsmydrivingny.nyc/cysy6fs8

Scoop from my colleague @c-sommerfeldt.bsky.social. NYPD Commissioner Tisch got about 4 hours notice from the Trump admin of last month’s ICE raid along Canal St., putting city in tough spot with sanctuary law. She directed cops to steer clear of the raid. www.nydailynews.com/2025/11/06/n...

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Bail reform not only made New York more just, it also literally made it safer. Too bad our elected leaders, public safety officials, and the overwhelming majority of the press are so deeply invested in a narrative entirely divorced from empirical reality. hellgatenyc.com/bail-reform-...

Graphic design is Maud Maron’s passion* * also transphobia and putting people in jail for long stretches of time for low-level offenses

ICYMI: _the_ flagship university of the apocryphal “students are fleeing the Northeast for southern universities where they can be safe and something viewpoint diversity*” movement is opening a branch campus in…. New York, New York * some restrictions may apply www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/n...

America’s oldest continuously published newspaper has reported a lot of absurd untruths but I don’t think any have been as absurd as this one 8 years of this nonsense ahead of us, jfc

It’s funny that this piece doesn’t mention “Cats’s” promise to leave New York and close Gristedes, reported 120 days ago in the….New York Post

I have to admit that I was completely wrong about this, I thought he’d be doing questionable things right up to the final buzzer, not hitting the exits early

Wait until they hear about Jamaal Bowman’s 430-lb bench press

Thank you, New York City. Together we made history. Now let’s get to work. transition2025.com

if you see anyone expressing shock that a candidate who exudes warmth and authenticity and wants to improve the quality of life for working class people won over a rapist whose entire campaign was "that guys a terrorist" that's not a smart person. you don't have to listen to that person anymore.

Just going to keep reminding everyone that Mayor Mamdani doesn’t have the power to do this; mayoral control is in the hands of the state legislature, where 100% of Republicans and a similar number of the Democratic delegation from outside NYC support it

we can chalk it up to youth and inexperience but the biggest mistake the mamdani campaign made was winning by 8.8% and not 1.5%, which is the margin needed for the media to say it’s a total mandate

lmao

We’ve got our first Realtor (lol) blockbusting in the 10463/10471 and leaving permanent digital footprints, what a world

Absolutely enormous Dorm Room Mamas energy here

If Citarelli or Cuomo had won Cohn would have been calling for the Democratic Party to self-disband It’s important to stop pretending that the media environment is neutral in any way and that pundits like this are criticizing in good faith. They actively do not want Democrats to succeed

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.
