Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

It’s a slow pitch at the letters: “Brad Lander is our neighbor. He was looking out for his neighbors. And he was arrested for that. When I rushed to help I was heartened to find most of my opponents there. Men and women who care for the City of New York. But Andrew Cuomo? Where was he?”

“(On the very day the Times wrote that a vote for him would be a vote against public “disorder,” one journalist found Cuomo parked illegally in a Manhattan turn lane and another noted that he has been repeatedly ticketed in recent months for speeding in school zones.)”

Absolutely incredible that we are still getting mainstream denunciations of "trans activists" when the far-right fringe has far more odious views and sits much closer to power.

This is exactly the right tone when privileged people suffer minor or temporary consequences standing up for powerless people. It’s still about the powerless people. ICE is Gestapo trash.

This is an absolutely disgraceful act of corruption by both major parties. It will lead to an incredibly foreseeable set of disasters: best case, unlimited corruption and scamming, worst case a global financial crisis and inevitable federal bailout. Horrifying that 18 Democrats voted for it.

Reporter: Five fellow mayoral candidates came here within 90 minutes of you being arrested and called for your release. What does that say about the tenor of the mayor's race? Lander: Was one of them Andrew Cuomo? Reporter: It was not. Lander: Imagine that!

The answer is in ICE's selection of targets: * Democratic politicians in public * Immigrants attending court hearings, at work, or at schools None of those people will be armed. On the flipside, ICE is scrupulously avoiding raids on cartel affiliates, drug dealing sites, etc. They might be armed.
