Anyone remember the "How Many Stops Act" (HMSA) reporting bill

As cities across the country see declines in violent crime, I'm sincerely glad it includes NYC

But I have to reflect back 4 or 5 years ago when candidate @ericadamsfornyc lied to families, saying he would support HMSA

The carpetbagger suburbanite disgraced ex-governor running for mayor of a city in which he does not live does not know the difference between rent controlled and rent stabilized. Mamdani lives in a rent stabilized apartment.

Worth pointing out very bluntly that Andrew Cuomo is now running a campaign to appeal to a bunch of brain-worms infected right wingers. He's speaking their language directly. Who did Rich and Melissa hire to run this account exactly? They won't say.

BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered ICE to comply with a prior settlement requiring immigration agents to enforce New Yorkers’ right to release instead of needlessly detaining people.

ICE is not above the law, and immigrants have rights that must be upheld and respected.

These House Dems are having an AIPAC-funded smiling vacation in a country currently bombing and starving millions of people with weapons they voted to send to that country.

Truly sickening. Stomach-churning. Ghouls.

one of the greatest humiliations of rule by these fascists is that, despite having total and complete control over the entire system of american government, the only thing they know how to do is ask for the manager because they're too stupid to understand that they *are the manager*

What to Do if You're Stopped by Immigration Officers - NYCLU

No matter your immigration status, you have rights when you interact with immigration agents or the police.

Agreed. If you want to vanish it from your own searches, type “-ai” when searching and you won’t see it.

#movieswatchedtoday: SHOCK WAVES (BD) and THE WAR OF THE WORLDS (1953) (4K)

A somehow underrated element of the mayoral race is how Sliwa, Adams and Cuomo are all very blatantly corrupt, and so far the worst scandal the press could dig up on Mamdani is that he attempted to identify himself correctly on an application for a spot at a school to which he didn't get accepted.

After horse collapses and dies in Hell's Kitchen, advocates rally for law banning carriage horses in NYC Supporters of a carriage horse named Lady that collapsed and died in Hell's Kitchen held a rally across the from the stable where she lived.

This needs to happen. There's long been no reason to continue this backward and cruel practice. No more horse carriages in NYC.

ICE and BOP Deny Lawmakers Access to MDC Brooklyn Amid Reports of Inhumane Conditions - NYCLU

BREAKING: Today, three members of New York's Congressional delegation were denied entry to Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) where immigrant detainees are being held, despite their constitutional oversight authority.

This denial raises grave questions of what MDC is trying to hide.

FEMA Employees Reassigned to ICE Probationary employees who had been on paid leave were told to report to ICE within seven days or lose their jobs. It could signal problems with ICE recruitment.

SCOOP: The Prospect has discovered that FEMA probationary employees who had been on paid leave were told to report to ICE within seven days or lose their jobs. It could signal problems with ICE recruitment. From @ddayen.bsky.social:

Yes, of course it’s “younger Americans.” Not all the tourist from Canada and Europe who don’t think visiting Las Vegas is worth 2 weeks in ICE detention.

A “Zohran Mamdani” account now exists on X that posts continuous anti-Israel content, mixing the factual with occasional antisemitic material.

Its more inflammatory posts have been signal-boosted by pro-Israel accounts as supposedly coming from the NYC mayoral candidate @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.

US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’ Exclusive: Andrea Velez and Adrian Martinez recount their capture by immigration officers and its effects on their lives

Remember this has nothing to do with deporting the criminal element among immigrants. It has to do with creating an all powerful secret police whose primary mission is to send fear into even US citizens so they will not protest anymore.

Cuomo Rolls Out Public Safety Plan That Would Expand Controversial NYPD Unit The former governor’s proposal aims to add 5,000 new NYPD officers, including growing the Strategic Response Group that his rival Zohran Mamdani has criticized for violating New Yorkers’ First Amendme...

For years, the SRG has been deployed to suppress New Yorkers’ right to protest, using their militarized equipment and tactics to attack protesters with impunity.

No more. New Yorkers deserve better than a violent police force eager to violate their rights. The SRG must be disbanded.

Eastport school scrutinized amid nationwide book ban spike The New York Civil Liberties Union is monitoring the Eastport-South Manor Central School District’s decision to declare 14 books obsolete, raising concerns

Nationwide, book bans are on the rise: In just a year they tripled from 3,362 to 10,046.

NY schools are no exception. Last July, a Suffolk Co. school district disposed of 14 titles - including The Bluest Eye, Fahrenheit 451, and Black Boy - without explanation. We're keeping an eye on the district.

On an average weekday more people use the NYC metro system (3,625,326) then live in Iowa (3,241,488)

New Haven bars workers from spending city funds on Avelo while it flies ICE deportation charters Avelo accounted for 94.64 percent of Tweed New Haven's commercial traffic between May 2024 and April 2025.

While Avelo is the main airline using the New Haven airport, New Haven officials have vowed not to support the airline as long as it continues flying Trump/GOP/Ice kidnap victims.

CURB the NYPD’s Abuse of Protesters Please take action!

The NYPD's SRG is a notoriously violent unit with a bloated budget, biased training, and a well-documented pattern of brutalizing New Yorkers exercising their right to protest.

The CURB Act would end the SRG’s deployment at protests and ban the unit’s most aggressive tactics. Take action now:
