🚨DREAM JOB ALERT!🚨 hellgatenyc.com/hell-gate-is...

This morning, in federal court, Frank Seddio professed outrage at any suggestion he's conspired to help steal $2 million. “I find it offensive, the kind of allegations that have been made by plaintiffs’ counsel in this matter," he told judge. "I thought I was reading a James Clancy novel!”

My suggested headline for this post was "Get a Load of Elise Stefanik’s Governor-Crash-Out Pants," but my colleagues hate clicks and truth.

Saving this photograph of my mop handle for derisive and devastating use in future online discourse.

Honestly I hope this case never ends, it's amazing. hellgatenyc.com/judges-dont-...

Thanks to an 11th-hour appointment by Mayor Eric Adams, the new head of the agency tasked with investigating police misconduct against civilians is a guy who says civilians should be threatened with perjury to discourage them from complaining about police misconduct. hellgatenyc.com/pat-smith-ch...

BRB draining the Great Lakes to train an AI to use this voice to argue with my enemies.

I'm going through @hellgatenyc.com's predictions for 2025 and it's actually wild how literally every single one of these came true and was 100% realized. hellgatenyc.com/hell-gate-20...

This morning I asked presumptive Council Speaker Julie Menin about Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro's statement to @hellgatenyc.com that he received a call from Menin "urging City Hall to intervene" before he took steps to cancel Kehlani's June Summerstage concert over the artist's support of Palestine:

Aaaahahahaha and now Eric Adams has appointed him to be the interim chair of the entire board.

One of the more insane legal stories I've covered, featuring international investors, $2 million in missing escrow funds, and Brooklyn Democratic Party macher Frank Seddio: hellgatenyc.com/frank-seddio...

In these dark times for news media, sometimes we lose sight of why a healthy society needs journalism in the first place. It’s good when we get notes like these to remind us.

And now a spokesperson for Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has weighed in hellgatenyc.com/nypd-clears-...

NYPD Clears a Path for Federal Agents on Canal Street With Violent Arrests and Pepper Spray An immigration crackdown was scheduled for Saturday afternoon on Canal Street, but was abandoned after demonstrators and vendors caught wind of it.

Oh and at one point, one cop pepper-sprayed another cop. (Around the 12-second mark.)

The NYPD also violently arrested several protesters, pushing them to the ground. Story to come.

Members of the NYPD's Strategic Response Group pepper-sprayed several protesters as they cleared the road for federal immigration officials.

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin. New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Thanksgiving is a time of joy—but it can also be a time when families navigate difficult differences of opinion. The key to steering through these awkward conversations at the Thanksgiving dinner table? *Relentless* message discipline. hellgatenyc.com/difficult-th...

I am trying to stage an intervention and convince Andrew Cuomo that even at this late hour he still has many life options besides the one he is choosing. He could do anything. He could join a cloistered monastic order and never be heard from again! hellgatenyc.com/andrew-m-cuo...

People often ask me when I'm going to write a book. For years, the answer I have given is: "When I find a story consequential enough and gripping enough that it warrants a book-length treatment." Well. hellgatenyc.com/the-only-oli...

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...

Honestly feeling a little emotional about this.

On the occasion of @hellgatenyc.com publishing a revamped, updated, shiny new final FINAL version of the Table of Success, our interactive guide to the Eric Adams cinematic universe, I wrote something trying to pull it all together: What *was* the Adams mayoralty? hellgatenyc.com/what-was-the...

Just saw an NYPD car screaming down the protected bike lane on Parkside, a first for me!

New data shows that the CCRB retroactively doctored public data for more than 10,000 misconduct allegations against NYPD officers. hellgatenyc.com/ccrb-whitewa...

To be sure, @hellgatenyc.com has had our differences with the Cuomo campaign. But when Rich Azzopardi told us this story was Pulitzer material, we took it to heart. As Hell Gate's finance chair, I have signed off on the $75 prize nomination fee. Now we wait. hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo...

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-...

They’re playing We Didn’t Start the Fire at Cuomo HQ.

Catching a vibe…

Riding around talking to voters on a beautiful fall day… I love this city. Even the hateful cranks. Big 25th-Hour-montage feelings over here, you guys.

Making my south down Coney Island Avenue this morning, through Mamdani, Cuomo, and Sliwa territory, talking to voters. You can read those conversations and others my colleagues are having around the city at @hellgatenyc.com!

Where will you be tomorrow night when the NYC election results come in? Perhaps at a bar with your friends. Perhaps at home in the dark, bathed in the faint, unearthly glow of a screen. Wherever you are, @hellgatenyc.com will be by your side. hellgatenyc.com/election-nig...

Hey all! I hope you enjoy this @hellgatenyc.com article on me written by @johnsurico.bsky.social and my 20 years with Streetfilms (and even longer than that.) I got a little emotional from reading all the kind words. @openplans.org @nyc.streetsblog.org hellgatenyc.com/livable-stre...

This story about Melissa DeRosa allegedly threatening Cornell's funding after an undergrad dared to ask her about Cuomo's sexual harassment allegations is not gonna do anything for this crew's reputation as frothing bullies. www.cornellsun.com/article/2025...

Spreading love and light through the universe.

Jake asked Cuomo about his ongoing failure to live up to his father's ethical standards, which I'm sure didn't push any buttons or anything. apnews.com/article/zohr...

Honestly surprised that the Cuomo PACs haven't seized on this shocking traumatic brain injury revelation.

Earlier this month I reported that there was a strange anomaly in public police accountability data that consistently obscured many allegations that cops lied to misconduct investigators. hellgatenyc.com/ccrb-tossing...
