UPDATED STORY: 32BJ SEIU, which represents security workers at shelters, blasts the new City Hall guidance memo, first reported on by Hell Gate, as undercutting sanctuary laws. "This policy is inhumane and contradicts the laws of our city and state." hellgatenyc.com/new-memo-ice...

If the mayor was really serious about protecting New York's immigrants, he probably wouldn't tell ICE the magic words to make our sanctuary policies disappear. hellgatenyc.com/new-memo-ice...

NEW for @hellgatenyc.com: What's the one thing you don't want to do if you want to protect the city's immigrants from the Laken Riley Act? Double down on arrests for low-level offenses. Except that's EXACTLY what Eric Adams & the NYPD's Jessica Tisch are doing. hellgatenyc.com/eric-adams-l...

What does it mean when the publisher of a 15-year-old hyperlocal Brooklyn news site suddenly fires its editor-in-chief and takes the content reins? In the case of Bushwick Daily, it means chaos. An investigation into what's been going on at Bushwick Daily:

As the City stands to lose millions & millions in federal funding for incredibly vital services, I think it's important to note that the mayor is: a) sick, but not too sick to meet with political allies at Gracie Mansion b) probably about to be doubly-indicted c) refusing to criticize the president

WHY is the mayor there? Why is Luigi in front and not in the middle of the group, making Luigi look infinitely cooler? And why hasn't the NYPD caught or at all made any headway in the killing of a migrant teen last week? All good questions to ask but we'll probably never get the answers!

"Whether the oversight hearing will prompt the City Council to take any tangible steps remains to be seen. In the meantime, the NYPD has not specified the release date of its plan to begin complying with the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution." That's a kicker. hellgatenyc.com/nypd-stop-an...
