BREAKING: #AlligatorAlcatraz is officially closed 🎉🎉🎉 We've reached a huge milestone in our fight against the mass detention center in the heart of the #Everglades: ICE announced it has removed all detainees from the cruelly named “Alligator Alcatraz,” and DeSantis confirmed it is closed.

It's weird the way the Democratic alleged leadership (Jeffries too) think that the party is a club with rules rather than something the voters choose. It's....undemocratic. But also didn't the voters choose these people because of their policies, not just because of Mandani?

Outside City Hall with @justicecommittee.bsky.social @vocal-ny.bsky.social @drugpolicy.org @housingworksnyc.bsky.social @genderlib.com and more to tell @mayor.nyc.gov: #NoNewCops! #CareNotCops!

BREAKING: days before budget deadline, 70 orgs deliver letter to @mayor.nyc.gov urging him to reverse NYPD expansion, stop broken windows policing, & invest in what really makes NYers safe: housing, healthcare & community-based support. Read: www.justicecommittee.org/post/70orgs-... #CareNotCops

WTF Syracuse! Train your poll workers better. No ICE allowed in poll sites!! Do you want people to be terrified to go vote??!!

Underappreciated but huge: It looks like the decade-long grassroots movement to clean up the corrupt Brooklyn Democratic Party (birthplace of Eric Adams' political career) has won its biggest victory! Kudos to @newkingsdems.bsky.social for starting and leading this fight.

Woot woot! This is huge!

@nyrr.bsky.social NY Road Runners need to stop accepting $$ from @citizensbank.bsky.social as the main sponsor for the NY Marathon until they stop funding immigration detention centers!!

Neighbors picketed on Citizens Bank branches in BK to call them out as the only major bank still financing ICE prisons. Don't be fooled by their PR or their whitewashing sponsorships.This bank funds ICE cruelty with customer deposits. #deicecitizensbank @citizensbank.bsky.social @indivisible.org

Tell @citizensbank.bsky.social to stop funding detention centers that are cruelly and illegally imprisoning our immigrant friends and neighbors!

Elias Irizarry, a January 6 insurrectionist who later pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor offense related to the Capitol attack, has now been appointed to a Pentagon policy position with responsibilities tied to counterterrorism and other sensitive national security matters.

As Josh Greene noted on TikTok: June 8, Donald Trump is traveling to NYC to attend the NBA Finals at Madison Sq Garden. New York has one job to do, boo like hell when Trump is shown on screen. These events are now reserved for billionaire class, the Epstein class… @joshtheprogressive.bsky.social

I just took this action with @foodandwater.bsky.social. Will you join me? act.foodandwaterwatch.org/page/98981/a...

It’s clear that the purpose of this law is to silence protected speech and to give Nassau police cover to conduct arbitrary and biased arrests. Like we said in court today, unjustified and unnecessary no-speech buffer zones violate people’s rights. Nassau’s law cannot stand.

Wall Street’s billionaires hate that Rep. John Larson has defended our earned benefits every time they try to steal or privatize Social Security. Rep. Larson is EXACTLY the kind of Social Security champion we need in Congress! @johnlarsonct.bsky.social

Union hotel housekeepers in New York City will soon make over $100,000 a year. A new contract the union and the owners of nearly 250 hotels would raise wages by more than 50%. If workers ratify the deal it'll mean life-changing money for 27,000 union members and their families.

The right to read is under attack nationwide - and that includes in NY. ⁠ ⁠ That's why we need the Freedom to Read Act: it would address the crisis of book banning by protecting students’ right to read + ensure that school districts have fair, rigorous protocols for evaluating book banning attempts.

Last summer, Malliotakis voted in the dead of night to strip healthcare from millions. Now the GOP want to hand even more $ to ICE & fund Trump's ballroom. It’s ok to change your mind, Nicole! @riseandresist.bsky.social @indivisible.org @bcidbrooklyn.bsky.social @housingworksnyc.bsky.social

Agree. Jeffries does not know what bold is when it comes to an agenda.

If you're wondering if Ross Barkan's plagiarism was limited to NYMag: No, it was not. He's written for @nytimes.com 16 times. I looked at his most recent story, from last summer, about Zohran, clicked on a link in his context paragraph, et voilà. First: Barkan Second: @dankaufman70.bsky.social

You may have read about the woman who gave birth in a Brooklyn courtroom Friday night while waiting to be arraigned. I spoke to an attorney who saw the whole thing, and says it was much worse than has previously been reported, a scene of "complete violence." hellgatenyc.com/birth-in-bro...

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

No one should ever be forced to give birth while shackled or endure labor without any respect for their privacy or basic human dignity. This is a terrible failure by law enforcement and the courts system.

HUGE NEWS: ICE’s courthouse arrests have been STAYED by a New York district judge. That means that ICE will have to stop arresting our immigrant neighbors on the spot when they show up to court at places like 26 Federal Plaza, 290 Broadway, and 201 Varick. (1/2)

I have organized with Lindsey to make sure we didn’t elect Andrew Cuomo as our mayor. I can say from first hand experience that she is one of the most kind, thoughtful, smart, and brave fighters for justice you’ll meet. Council District 3 would be lucky to have her in their corner fighting for them.

Everyone knows the main reason Lindsey is famous and beloved, but let me just add: the two people in Council District 03 whose judgment on both policy and politics I trust most both say her positions on city-level issues and how she navigates local dynamics are why Lindsey's their pick for the seat.

We rewatched the halftime show and the closing is so powerful. Bad Bunny’s final messages during his Super Bowl performance: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” “Together, we are America.”

Stop the GOP’s new voter suppression legislation act.indivisible.org/sign/stop-go...

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl news.wisc.edu/pop-star-bad...
