Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

Have a Happy…

Many thanks 🙏🙏 to Emely Rumble. I'm so heartened that my novel, "Exit Tickets," spoke to her. As for me, Emely's "Bibliotherapy in the Bronx" should be required reading in obtaining a Master's in Urban Education. 💙🖋️📚 #booksky #ExitTickets #UrbanFiction www.instagram.com/p/DRaDfTUDsF...

As a rent-stabilized tenant here in Manhattan and a big Mamdani booster, this is what I was afraid might happen... Adams is the absolute worst; he's undoubtedly pocketing some big-landlord cash on his way out the door. citylimits.org/as-mayor-ada...

Venezuela better be on guard, what with the Epstein story due to peak Tue and Wed; I’m afraid the dog will be wagged by a desperate Trump.

Fully deserved.

Where’s that DC pizza parlor shotgun guy when we need him…? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Doesn't sound that "radical" to me... 🤷‍♂️

11 years and 17 drafts--count 'em!--later, my novel, "Exit Tickets," is ready for prime literary time. Available in hardback and as an e-book Nov 18. Publishers Weekly, in an 'Editor's Pick' review, called it a "powerful, realistic portrayal of life in the American public education system." 📚💙 🖋️📚

Tonight was a very bad night.

Ugh. The new hateful eight…

Love this!

Not sure, though, that “deep reflection” is in Trump’s wheelhouse…

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

Mamdani: My friends, we have toppled a political dynasty. I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life. But let tonight be the final time I utter his name.

Has the corrupt, sexual-harassing, fear-mongering, Islamophobic bully packed up and gotten on his plane to Florida yet…? 😁 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

StuyTown, baby! 💪🏼🗽

WE DID IT! WE DID IT! WE DID IT!

😁 Trump really must want Zohran to win… 🤗

💀 Happy Day of the Dead 💀

Wow… Let’s hope these latest two polls are accurate. A double-digit win — maybe even by 15 percentage points or more — along with clearing the 50% mark, would be truly amazing. "Mamdani Holds Onto Strong Lead in 2 New Polls Ahead of Election Day" www.nytimes.com/2025/10/30/n...

It was, indeed, an incredibly heartfelt and powerful speech. “Mamdani’s Speech About Being Muslim Resonates Beyond New York City” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/n...

👏🏻💪🏼 🗽 Zohran for Mayor! 🗽

Nice! Lookin' spiffy... patch.com/new-york/eas...

Good one. 🗽Zohran for Mayor!🗽

Mamdani will be working hand-in-glove with Tish James. They’ll make a great team to help protect our city from Trump’s ICE/CBP/etc goons.

Great to catch up with @chrislhayes.bsky.social. Watch our conversation on tonight at 8pm on @msnbc.com.

Yesss! 👏 This lot is only about 13 or 14 blocks uptown from where we live on 20th St near the East River. *More parks/public waterfront, less parking lots!* nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/10/28/f...
