Despicable

While I’m glad Commissioner Tisch let Ricky Patel (Special Agent in Charge at HSI) know that she’s not happy with their raids, I’m disturbed by footage of NYPD officers clearing the way for ICE vehicles. It’s a violation of our sanctuary city law to facilitate deportations. x.com/emmagf/statu...

The scene now at Lafayette and Howard, diagonal to the ICE garage which activists remain camped out in front of on both sides of the building.

Confirmed: Earlier this morning a photog overheard agents inside the parking garage say “dismissed,” believed to be calling off their planned mass raid. A source tells me they had planned for *hundreds* of agents to flood Canal St. They got flooded instead.

NYC Strong , it’s an immigrant city and 🧊isn’t welcome here.

Good Bye Eric! You could have been such an amazing mayor if you had made everyday Nyers your priority.

BIG NEW YORKERS AGAINST ICE rally at 6 pm, Thursday, 9/25 at Foley Square in NYC, friends! Please do come through! If you've never been to a rally, why not start here? It's 2025 and it's time. We all gotta stand up for all of us.

Choose your fighter.

Your pal @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social at the West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn. Genuinely hard to take a bad picture of this dude. That's the @nywfp.bsky.social float behind him - follow them and let's make this man mayor and get him the progressive caucus he needs to get things done, NYC!

The vibes were fantastic. #ZcavengerHunt cc @sabahm.bsky.social

Couple of awesome Mamdani folks including @sabahm.bsky.social at 1 Center Street on the #ZcavengerHunt!

Wouldn’t it be amazing to see @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social take up the teahuvah offered here and actually interview the plurality of Jewish New Yorkers who support @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social? Bend the Arc used to work with Greenblatt. This would be interesting.

What if we told you no 1 knows *exactly* what’s in NYC’s $116B budget other than #EricAdams & his budget office? That’s by design & Adams has been using it to cut services & hide NYPD overspending since day 1. Watch our convo w/ @cmalexaaviles.bsky.social on why tran$parency matters. #CareNotCuts

As a candidate Eric Adams promised to dedicate 1% of the city budget to NYC parks. As mayor he screwed over the parks department and the workers that run it for 3 years straight. Adam Ganser from @ny4p.bsky.social on how we can win back the green spaces NYers deserve. #EricAdams #CareNotCuts

Time to raise some taxes on NY’s very richest.

¡Neoyorquinos! ¡El día de las elecciones es el martes 24 de junio! Estamos aquí para decirle a nuestra comunidad: ¡No clasifiquen a Andrew Cuomo! Se postula para representar a los ricos, no a la gente de Nueva York. #AndrewCuomo @maketheroadny.bsky.social @dreamnyc.bsky.social @nychange.bsky.social

"What Brad did was engage in that very moment of courage. He showed us what leadership can look like. And for that, he was arrested."

The routine arresting of elected officials opposing government action is a hallmark of fascism, and it is happening before our very eyes. @bradlander.bsky.social must be released immediately

Release @bradlander.bsky.social He is among the best of us and shows up for folks of his city day in and day out even when not on the clock.

As for so many across this country, Bernie Sanders has been the single most influential political figure in my life. As Mayor, I will strive to live up to his example by fighting for the working class every day and hopefully make Brooklyn’s own proud.

My husband showed up to the @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social canvas he leads this morning expecting to see the 30 people who had signed up. THERE WERE EIGHTY people. On a rainy Saturday. I HATE THIS HOPE IM FEELING.

So much bad with Cuomo

We're now 8 points away from sending Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs.

He's scared.

You think your rent is too damn high right now? A pac for Cuomo is literally raking in money from real estate bros, they will make sure as Mayor he raises the rent and only works for them. Don’t Rank Cuomo! Great work @nyersagainstcuomo.bsky.social

Andrew Cuomo doesn’t ride the MTA like most New Yorkers, so he will never have to experience the impact of his failed policies.

Like I said, I was, for a time, this guys staff who oversaw housing. He doesn’t care and he isn’t smart.

"[Andrew Cuomo] was driven from office for his illegal activities." From the new 'We're Not Kidding', actor/activist Cynthia Nixon & @mehdirhasan.bsky.social recount former NY gov. Cuomo's multiple scandals that made him resign in 2021. Watch the full conversation: zeteo.com/p/ice-is-a-t...

I so appreciated the opportunity to chat with @andyostroy.bsky.social on why the monster that is Andrew Cuomo cannot be our mayor. Please listen in and share. ✊✊✊✊

13 women. THIRTEEN women. If allegations of sexual harassment or groping by THIRTEEN women isn’t a dealbreaker for you, your moral compass is completely shattered. #HellNoCuomo

You know what story has not been printed about the NYC Mayor’s race? How many powerful people are afraid of Andrew Cuomo. They do not want him back, but they are also receiving indirect threats regularly. I wonder why no journalist has said anything about this?

Democrats say no to Cuomo! We are proud to join a coalition of nearly 200 Democratic leaders—state and city legislators, District Leaders, County Committee members, and Democratic clubs—in urging our party leaders to oppose Cuomo’s self-centered bid for rehabilitation. bit.ly/nocuomodems

During today's brief hearing, Judge Furman made remarks and rulings that may shape Mahmoud Khalil's case over his arrest and detention. * Filings will be unsealed, with parties' consent. * Khalil can have two privileged calls with counsel. * Judge is skeptical of govt's jurisdiction args.

He’s really trying to lean into reaping the worst labels and choosing the worst positions.

“By hiring an anti-trans official for a crucial campaign finance role, Cuomo is signaling that trans rights are negotiable to him,” said Tyler Hack, a trans rights activist & ED of the Christopher Street Project. “The only takeaway we can make from that is that it's not an accident.” t.co/a3Jjrot7Sx

“a green card is a privilege!” No. A green card grants legal status as a permanent resident. The slippery slope to “citizenship is a privilege!” is right there. Don’t give an inch.

Why filling five slots on your ballot is as important as not ranking Eric or Andrew. Don’t rank either one of them and use ur values and dreams to pick 5 that you envision a NYC thriving under. Also thank you @lindseyboylan.bsky.social for the RCV primer.

📣We're calling on @govkathyhochul.bsky.social & state legislators to protect immigrant communities by passing the New York for All Act! #NY4All Sign the petition to demand real protections from policies targeting immigrants. Over 500 NYers added their name, will you? win.newmode.net/ny4allpetition

Yanking a U.S. Permanent Resident away from his 8-months pregnant wife and disappearing him so that even his lawyer can’t find him is straight up tyranny

There is a real, genuine 1st Amendment crisis in the United States right now. The government is openly retaliating against anyone with a viewpoint it doesn't like: Pro-Palestinian protesters, law schools teaching Black History, pro-immigration public service loan forgiveness seekers.

Targeting and abducting a legal U.S. resident for political speech is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. Mahmoud Khalil should be home with his wife. Trump and Musk want to see what they can get away with. That’s why we can’t be quiet in the face of their power grab.

Fun, kinda like his boss and Jersey.

If you think folks will stand by and let Cuomo claw his way back to power, you are mistaken. Everyday he and his supporters will be reminded about how he is an abuser, a murderer and unfit to to be Mayor of NYC. Bruh go back to Westchester.
