Lest it be said I only share bad news, here’s something good. An immigration judge in NYC has reopened the case of a 20-year-old Bronx high school student, a Venezuelan migrant that ICE detained and planned to subject to expedited removal. Her decision halts that. www.nydailynews.com/2025/06/16/n...

Incredibly proud to endorse my former colleague Assemblymember @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for Mayor. We fought side by side for debt relief for our taxi drivers. We camped out in the war room together to fight Cuomo’s terrible budget that hurt New Yorkers. I KNOW Zohran will fight for us.

I cannot believe they are evacuating Tehran! That’s like an order to evacuate New York! What is this world coming to?!!

I’m watching the Panama v Guadeloupe Gold Cup game on TV as we speak. It is being played in Los Angeles. And the stadium is almost completely empty. A sport that in the U.S. is highly dependent on Latino audiences is no longer viable. The World Cup cannot come here.

This is legitimately terrifying. Almost 10 million people live within the city limits of Tehran with another almost 7 million additional people in the metro area. There are 8 million people in NYC. How the FUCK would we all be able to "evacuate" with no notice??? THIS IS EVIL. PERIOD.

Just learned from @katiehonan.bsky.social that Andrew Cuomo didn’t show up for his scheduled interview with the New York Editorial Board this morning. (That’s the independent org of veteran journalists trying to fill the gap left by NYT edit board.)

The Atlantic should be ashamed of publishing this nightmare piece from Liz Bruenig, whose callous dismissal of Adriana Smith's dignity is one of the most shocking things I've ever read.

This isn't all of the story, but a surprisingly big part of the "fear" of Mamdani isn't actually that he'll institute full communism, it's that people's friends-and-influence groups will be demoted from their positions of authority

The DOJ is arguing that Harvard doesn't have any evidence that Trump banned student visas to Harvard out of retaliation, which, lol.

What I learned today is that the @nytopinion.nytimes.com doesn’t believe in young people of color in leadership. Time and time again people tout “seniority” and “experience”. 75 years ago, there were no women of color elected in NY. Where is “seniority” or “experience” to come from for us?

Trump just openly endorsed "remigration," the vile goal of white nationalist extremists, and media yawned. On the pod, @willsommer.bsky.social is just fascinating on this idea and on the violent lawlessness and sadism at the core of MAGA. Don't miss this one: newrepublic.com/article/1968...

You could rank the @nywfp.bsky.social slate or the @jfrejnyc.bsky.social one because you love NYC and think we deserve good leadership that cares about working people and justice (and isn't a sex pest). Or you could do it to vex the NYT editorial board. I'm going to do it for both reasons

I had the same reaction. Mamdani is such a threat in their view that they had to essentially reverse their non-endorsement policy. If Cuomo was cruising to victory, I doubt this piece would be written.

The last decade has been disappointing so we should…. elect the guy who was in power for more than half of the last decade & whose spitefulness, incompetence & pettiness is a major reason why that’s the case?? Come ON.

On June 14th, Arthur Folasa Ah Loo, known as Afa, was tragically killed during the No Kings protest in Salt Lake City, UT. 50501 is deeply saddened by this tragedy. If you are able, please consider donating to cover the immediate financial burdens his family faces. gofundme.com/f/help-laura...

More violence based in bullshit that will get people killed. Not fit to lead? He’s not fit to use the White House remote control. This is how you know the fascist birthday parade was a royal clunker and the people in the streets won the weekend.

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

Concussion protocol at protests is important these days. Victims try to tough it out, but their decision-making is impaired. Please understand that the lucid interval of epidural hematoma can range anywhere from 30 minutes to a full day after initial unconsciousness. Learn to spot obtundation.

Sent to me from a source who took this video yesterday who says LAPD pushed an unhoused person walking in the crosswalk. The fall caused the woman’s head to crack open. LAPD dragged and left her bleeding on the sidewalk, providing no medical care. The person a group of onlookers took her to the ER.

How do cop supporters not seen how embarrassingly cowardly they are. Also, the only thing more skittish in an angry crowd than a cop is a horse, and neither of them belong there, and one has my sympathy.
