Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

"I'm willing to find common ground with fascists so long as a small number of drivers aren't charged $9 to bring their cars into the densest, most transit-rich city in the country" is a terrible look for Democrats.
Today I sent a letter to President Trump urging his Administration to reexamine New York’s congestion pricing scheme.
Congestion pricing is a disaster for New Jersey commuters and must receive the close look it deserves from the federal government.

If the @nyc-dot.bsky.social doesn't like this, is worried about it slowing down safety projects, then they should aggressively back Intro 1138 for universal daylighting in NYC. If universal daylighting is the law, a whole lot of curb space isn't technically "parking" anymore. @jehiah.cz
