If you live in NYC’s District 3, you have the opportunity to send a fierce advocate for justice to the City Council this year, someone who’s demonstrated that she can’t be easily intimidated by oligarchs or powermongers.

The media need to be reporting on the ongoing occupation of Minneapolis, not Trump's lies about a softer approach.
It's warming up here in Minnesota. ICE should be out in full force. The pussies don't like the cold. The protesters don't mind.

The media is moving on, but ICE assaults haven't stopped in Minnesota at all. Resistance by everyday people hasn't lessened either. Bars and churches across Minneapolis have collection points like this for those in need, as if we're the home front in WW2. Except the front is our own neighborhoods.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Leaders of the so-called “pro-life, small government” party who relentlessly warn of tyranny are standing by as masked agents roam the country and brutalize its people. The hypocrisy isn’t surprising — but it’s staggering. Remember this.

Kash Patel stopped FBI agents from investigating Renee Good’s killing because the findings might’ve contradicted their narrative that she was a “domestic terrorist.”
We cannot trust a word coming out of this Admin.
DHS must allow Minnesotan authorities to investigate, NOW.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

Just another rich guy trying to bash Mamdani. Washington Post: New York Post :: California Post : New York Post?
i thought WaPo was abandoning being a local paper. they're just abandoning DC. Not New York.
In a city packed with mighty real estate titans, they are the small ones.
New York landlords say they are at their breaking point as Mayor Zohran Mamdani begins to implement even more aggressive tenant-friendly policies.

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.

I feel the same way about New York. I’ll get a burrito delivered once every couple months out of laziness, but if you’re doing it once a week (or more) I don’t understand why you’re living in the most walkable city in the country.
My scorching hot take is that anybody who values London as a great city for pedestrians should stop using all these companies.

The Citi Bike rate keeps going up, even while most of the bikes remain trapped in the snow, completely unusable.
Bike share is a form of public transit, but the system's private owner, Lyft, isn't stepping up to the plate. New York commuters deserve better.

No one has yet talked in depth about Mamdani's play- as in, a childlike wonder and ceaseless fun and joy. That is rooted in what he learned from his mom about acting, which is pure play. Everything he does is rooted in encouraging US to be more playful, too. It's wonderful.
Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.
