@jumaane.bsky.social and Marcela Mitaynes told folks at the rally to call @governor.ny.gov to tell her to support the NY for All bill that would prevent local agencies from coordinating with ICE. Call her, y'all! 518-474-8390!

Good for you, Peanut! #Bears

Huge TY to @hels.bsky.social for her review and recommendation of Bong in Crown Heights! The food was great, service as well, look forward to returning soon. And yes we turned the whole fish over…and devoured it! Proof below.

Kimmel’s writing staff doesn’t seem cowed by the events of the past week. @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social

If you want to understand this Trump administration's rampant corruption ... you have to go back to Eric Adams, and how they made the case against him disappear. I got a bunch of new details on this deep dive for @nytimes.com ... www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/o...

He is correct, and I am glad someone is saying it. forward.com/fast-forward...

So f’n funny! Perfect delivery. TY for this @itsthebrandi.bsky.social and @wesburdine.bsky.social for posting it! Also, well worth it to read through the replies to this post. My timeline has been missing some good old fashion Glory Hole content, appreciate it Smitten Kitten!

"No hate, no fear! Immigrants are welcome here!" Absolutely massive crowd at the New Yorkers Against ICE march. Blocks long!

It's not fascist to call fascists fascist. It's not "dehumanizing" to say that terrorizing entire groups of people - which ICE does - is evil. No executive order can change these facts. However, people *can* mess things up for fascists by standing up for community and truth. Like this.

NYers are surrounding 26 Fed Plaza right now with clear demands: 🧊Get #ICEOutOfNY & release all immigrants detained at 26 Federal Plaza; 🪖No federal troops in NYC; 🦋Pass #NY4All & the NYC Trust Act. It’s time for our leaders to take action to protect ALL New Yorkers, including immigrants.

Great remarks at tonight’s ICE OUT OF NEW YORK rally by AM’s @votejgr.bsky.social @tonysimone.bsky.social and Marcela Mitaynes, who urged us to call Gov Hochul to support the New York for All Act. @jumaane.bsky.social also spoke powerfully about the need to get ICE out of NYC. @thenyic.bsky.social

Hard to see but the amazing @bradlander.bsky.social is speaking now. @maketheroadny.bsky.social @jfrejnyc.bsky.social @thenyic.bsky.social

The person holding this sign was wearing a Zohran baseball cap!

ICE OUT OF NYC!! @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @jumaane.bsky.social

Crowd is building here at Foley square as we stand up for our friends and neighbors and against Ice in our city. Come on down! @gregpak.net @bradlander.bsky.social @thenyic.bsky.social @nycprogressives.bsky.social @jfrejnyc.bsky.social

New: While a 29-year-old detainee with severe mental illness was on the brink of death in his Rikers Island cell last month, a medical staffer stood outside his cell door spraying air freshener, according to a Board of Correction report obtained by @thecity.nyc www.thecity.nyc/2025/09/25/r...

This is today, friends! 6 pm, Foley Square!

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Thread from @bradlander.bsky.social about the latest act of violence by ICE agent targeting a woman after her husband was detained. Disgraceful and disgusting behavior by these goons.

This is a horror. If this makes you sick, come to the New Yorkers Against ICE rally TONIGHT at 6 pm at Foley Square!

CHOTINER: So You created us right GOD: Yes CHOTINER: In Your image GOD: Yes CHOTINER: And sometimes we do bad things GOD: Oh Yes CHOTINER: And then you send plagues and floods GOD: OK I think I see where you are going with this

I'm not sure what's going on, but this year's freshman class is giving me ... what was that word ... hope? They're energized and excited, they're doing the reading and doing it well, they're asking great questions and offering smart answers too. Is this just me or are others seeing it?

Jaw dropping interview by @ichotiner.bsky.social with Cass Sunstein. Please read it all the way to the end. “But, despite his busyness, he came to the book party” is just about the funniest comment/follow up to an insane anecdote I’ve ever read. Still laughing about that line.

UK tabs: 🇬🇧

As I was saying…

to me, the “column” is less a form than an opportunity (and a challenge). you’re telling me i have as much space as i’d like to make an argument about anything i’d like to an audience inclined to pay close attention? well let’s see if they’ll read 2000 words on democratic legitimacy. (gift link)

Dolan has always been terrible

Whats amazing about him is he has absolutely ZERO juice in the Vatican, among US Bishops and little influence here in NY. He’s an absurd right winger, out of touch with his own parishioners. His true calling? A Fox News troll.

A #RoshHashanah custom is eating apple slices dipped in honey. The sweet nourishment of apples & honey signifies healing and optimism. The hope that the new year will be sweet. "George", an apple harvester from NYs Cahoon Farms is optimistic about his new UFW contract. #WeFeedYou

Sorry to break it to you all but THE Rapture already came in 1981 thanks to our savior Debbie Harry and Blondie. IYKYK

Playlist from last nights amazing Pulp show at Red Rocks. Jarvis Cocker puts on quite a show.

Somewhere in Hell Qaddafi smiles knowing his will never again be seen as the most demented speech in UN General Assembly history.

Red Rocks! What’s up? Waiting for Pulp to go on. My first time at Red Rocks and 1st time seeing Pulp. Jen is a veteran of both.

Seems like Man City could use a really creative midfielder like Jack Grealish. Just sayin. I know it’s petty, but I really enjoy watching Pep suffer. Negative/conservative tactics by both teams makes 1-1 feel right.

What a goal by Arsenal! As @erinnyc75.bsky.social said, a tie would be a great result for Liverpool. Donnarumma went for quite a stroll on that!

Too late Dan Goldman, Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer. The @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social train has left the station. Carl Heastie and Yvette Clarke took the last two seats.

Media execs have fallen prey to a propaganda and harassment campaign that has completely divorced them from what people actually want right now. Both their insular information environments (group chats, podcasts) and ambient noise (Twitter reactionaries) have put them in a very stupid bubble.

No one should get violent threats. But if you’re gonna change your vote because of it, you should resign. I’Ve been getting violent threats all week and not only do I have no intention of shutting up, I think it’s evidence that we need to say it louder

Haven’t mentioned this in far too long. We at EVLovesNYC are on the frontlines against food insecurity here in NYC. This administrations cuts are already being felt. Our line gets ever longer. People have told me their food stamps have been cut. Donate what you can

That West Brom Captain looks like he’s seen some things! Anyone on here know who he is and how old? @meninblazers.bsky.social @richjolly.bsky.social @bethlindop.bsky.social @rogbennett.bsky.social

Amazing

fun exchange!

This is a @bradlander.bsky.social appreciation post. That’s all for now. @nyccomptroller.bsky.social

It was very telling that for three days, none of the major TV anchors would have me on air one-on-one to talk about my firing from the Washington Post over Charlie Kirk. The first offers were from Black media, independent media, Substackers, and podcasters.

“We’re gonna keep showing up till they stop abducting our neighbors” - @bradlander.bsky.social echoing his words @jfrejnyc.bsky.social gala once more after his arrest today. Great clip

Lander does this shit when he's not even running for anything. The realest possible one
