We must note that all the condemnation of Tucker Carlson platforming Nick Fuentes has been about anti-Semitism and there has been an alarming and revealing silence around his anti-Black racism and white supremacy. When the head of the Heritage Foundation apologized, he only cited anti-Semitism.

“By requesting permission from the court to appeal this decision, Mayor Eric Adams is once again prioritizing bureaucratic delay over the urgent needs of families facing eviction and homelessness,” said Robert Desir, staff attorney at @legalaidnyc.bsky.social.
It's been roughly two years since the administration was due to implement the laws, which would make rental vouchers available to more people living outside of shelters and increase the income eligibility threshold for CityFHEPS, among other reforms. bit.ly/3HTBzU1

True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing.

Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter.

Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧵

The other day I was trying to find some old things I'd written and discovered that one my Yanni review from the NYT, one of my faves (and @joshgoldfein.bsky.social 's fave!), got quoted in a dissertation! I'm proud. Thanks Leanne Fetterley, I hope you got a job somewhere

Once again, friends, DO NOT RANK Cuomo on your mayoral ballot. Instead, #RankTheSlate - @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, @bradlander.bsky.social, @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social, and @zellnor.bsky.social -- and add @jessicaramosqns.bsky.social to fill out your five. NO CUOMO - NEVER CUOMO.

But what happens to unsheltered people after they are hospitalized? It's a revolving door back to the street. @governor.ny.gov, @leaderasc.bsky.social, and Speaker Heastie can solve this by requiring that people be connected to housing and wrap-around services. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/inter...

Thank you @cmsandynurse.bsky.social for being a champion and fighting alongside homeless advocates for more public bathrooms. Everyone should be #Free2Pee.
Today we are voting to make NYC flush with public toilets!

Thank you to my colleagues and to the #FreetoPee Coalition of advocates that turned out this morning in support of my bathroom bill Int. 694 going to a vote in a couple hours!
