Two people in custody after 'suspicious devices' found outside NYC mayor's official residence The anti-Islam protest was led by right-wing influencer Jake Lang. It's not clear whether New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani was in Gracie Mansion at the time.

Happy to know that our Mayor and First Lady are safe, but horrified that there was such a disturbing threat of violence outside their residence.

Vile displays of Islamophobia will never be tolerated in our city.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

🆘DON’T KILL 🐶TENNESSEE

Her owner didn’t take her outside or on walks as she said she’s ’s too big (65 lb) 🤬 she’d never been in a car. They had the police bring her to ACC where she arrived understandably scared

The shelter is a scary place for a dog that’s never been out

Oh yes, I meant ACC should always have a video for a dog At Risk. I realize — I learned —that volunteers often aren’t given access to very scared dogs, the ones that might need them most. And sadly, that likely makes sense most times

Final call for Pancake 🥞 Read his bio, he has made great improvements: wiggly, young & beautiful, good on a leash. Loves toys. Need to hurry, he is under kill command:

OMG, they should have put that video out days ago. Save Pancake!

Juno was reclaimed by her owner. Not great, but better than death.

@mayor.nyc.gov

First 7 days of March, 10 dogs killed that we know of, 4 there fewer than 17 days

@thescoopnewyork.com knows, an Animal Welfare Caucus is a sham if it doesn’t stop the killing. Shelter Animal Rescue Act #SARA would mandate dogs 2B killed are offered to a qualified rescue org first

🆘DON’T KILL 🐶 PANCAKE

He’s a big scared stray, and they don’t get many chances there. Even when they start to seek comfort for the handlers they trust.

Need to act fast, no video means he’s a target for a fast killing 💔

Give ❤️ get big ❤️

🆘 DON’T KILL 🐶TRITON

He came in underweight & terrified. Darted by the police he came to at ACC understandably scared. They are doing absolutely nothing to help him, just speeding him to his death

This beautiful boy needs an experienced hero foster now
