Cuomo has dismissed @ZohranKMamdani ideas as overly simplistic and unrealistic. He told CNN he agrees more political involvement among the city’s youngest residents is ultimately a good thing, but he worries idealism might be getting the best of them:

Police in Long Island county granted authority to help arrest and deport migrants under Trump admin agreement

County police from Nassau County, a suburb of New York City on Long Island, have been granted federal authority to help arrest and deport migrants under an agreement with the Trump administration, county officials announced Tuesday.

On Tuesday, a military flight carrying migrants is expected to head to Guantanamo Bay - @priscialva @NatashaBertrand @halbritz

“That was the argument that was used to intern Japanese citizens. It was the denial of citizenship in favor of race: ‘The ability to become American, the ability to assimilate, they just didn’t have it.’”

New DOJ memo outlines the Trump administration’s plans to challenge sanctuary city laws by threatening to prosecute state and local officials who resist the federal immigration crackdown, according to a copy of the document obtained by CNN.

Today the Department of Homeland Security said immigration authorities will be permitted to arrest people and carry out enforcement actions in and near places such as churches and schools, marking a departure from longstanding policy to avoid so-called “sensitive areas.”

.@nycmayor will not say if agrees or disagrees with Trump's executive orders to pardon Jan6 rioters, to withdraw from Paris Agreement or to end birthright citizenship. Adams says executive orders are about "the balance of power" says if he disagrees he'll let Trump know directly

He does say that the city will collaborate with ICE "around criminality."

.@nycmayor, who in recent months said he would work with the Trump administration on immigration enforcement says today that nothing is "going to change" regarding the city's current posture when it comes to working with federal law enforcement, including ICE.

State and local leaders across the country are bracing for a tidal wave of aggressive immigration policies and possible mass deportations that President Donald Trump has vowed to enact in the hours and days following his inauguration Monday.

Days after NYC implementation of congestion pricing, @ChicagosMayor
Brandon Johnson says he’s open to exploring a similar program in Chicago’s Loop. The city has some of the worst traffic congestion along with NYC:

Zapeta-Calil repeatedly told police that he did not remember the incident, the documents show.

“I am very sorry. I didn’t mean to. But I really don’t know. I don’t know what happened, but I’m very sorry for that woman,” Zapeta-Calil told police:

The man accused of killing a woman by setting her on fire on a New York City subway car last month pleaded not guilty to murder charges Tuesday and was ordered held without bail.

President-elect Donald Trump, a Republican, has vowed to kill the program when he takes office, but it’s unclear if he will follow through. The plan had stalled during his first term while it waited on a federal environmental review.

The crime has renewed focus on a set of multilayered and inextricable issues felt almost daily in America’s biggest city: homelessness, crime and the nation’s broken immigration system.

It’s been a week since a woman died in a New York City subway car, allegedly set on fire by a homeless, undocumented man. She has yet to be identified and the man charged with her murder says he doesn’t even remember being there.
