*ydanis taps mic* we cancel more bike and bus projects in NYC than any other agency in North America.

fuck every single person who voted for this monstrosity

if any of you still have any sort of conscience left it should eat at you for the rest of your lives

kicking millions of people off of health insurance to fund the american gestapo

After a deadly weekend of three car crash deaths, today we're in court fighting Mayor Adams' attempt to rip up safety improvements on Bedford.

The Department of Transportation warns: “The City risks legal liability for knowingly reducing safety on a Vision Zero priority corridor.”

Don't rank Cuomo.

“Mr. Clinton said he was drawn to Mr. Cuomo because ‘We’re both sexual harassers who live in Westchester.’”

Keep spreading the word:

Don't rank Cuomo.

‘Money vs. democracy’: Hanif and supporters accuse Uber of election interference • Brooklyn Paper Rideshare drivers, delivery workers, labor activists and local Democrats rallied May 28 in Kensington with City Council Member Shahana Hanif, who accused Uber

Because @shahanafrombk.bsky.social is standing up for workers and fighting for things like paid sick leave, Uber is backing her opponent with over $129,000 in mail and digital ad spending. If you live in District 39 in Brooklyn, please vote for Shahana Hanif. Let's keep big money out of politics.

WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT is unironically one of the best popular narratives about the way privatization of public services destroys local community

The city will this weekend finally open a new pedestrian path this weekend after delays

Andrew Cuomo won’t talk to the families of nursing home victims.

He won’t ride the subway or take a bus.

He spends most of each week in hiding.

But he will *beg* for a meeting with a 94-year-old right-wing Australian billionaire.

Remember all these suspended projects next time someone in city govt says “vision zero”

An orange and white cat sits impatiently. Making you earn his love

the main thing I've never understood about politics is the misplaced loyalty. did you know that if a person you voted for does something dumb or bad, you can simply opt not to defend them? it is very easy.

be mercurial, like a cat who hasn't been fed in 20 min. make these people earn your love

🚨🚨Calling all North Carolina voters!! Here is a list of every voter that Jefferson Griffin is trying to disenfranchise, please if you are a NC voter check to see if your name is on here, you have 15 days to cure your ballot to make sure your vote counts. thegriffinlist.com/assets/griff...

I blame things on shadowy capitalists from the Isle of Sodor.

We now need the House to act on this. You need to call your Rep, ESPECIALLY if they're GOP. Don't tell me it won't do any good. Don't concede the fight in advance. Just fucjin call their office and leave a quick voice mail saying you want the tariffs gone.

The great part about calling for tangible bills to pass is Adrienne Adams has no response. She can call Intro 909 up for a vote any date.

Cuomo distances himself from the state-run MTA Cuomo's stance also represents a stark departure from his embrace of the system just a few months back.

Yes the sex pest stuff. Yes the nursing home deaths. Yes the sloppy nonstop venality. But I cannot get past this. The up-yours brazen incompetence on core government administration www.politico.com/states/new-y...

"move away from the dominance of small dollar donations" ie ignore the actual base of the party for the suits and donors, everyone should call their Dems demanding the names of whoever wrote this and when those party resignations will be released to the public

Cuomo killed a lot of people's grandparents and then covered it up.

Indivisible or somebody has to hold town halls in absentia, don't let them just ditch this

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Very Serious People:: The military is entirely on Trump's side, they can't wait to crush the country beneath his heel, it's going to be marital law--

Trump Administration Moves to End New York’s Congestion Pricing Tolls President Trump had raised concerns that the new tolling program, the first of its kind in America, was drawing visitors and businesses away from Manhattan.

For some in positions of power, the greatest fear isn't that a major policy might fail, but that it might prove wildly successful. Today's move to halt congestion pricing says nothing about transportation or economics—but everything about the people who oversee them. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/n...

Establishing the President's Make America Healthy Again Commission By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.

This is a manifesto against disability.

This is the language of eugenics.

Do not vote for Andrew Cuomo for mayor.

And I’ll repeat it - removing corrupt politicians is a very good precedent. Democrats should not hesitate.

An elected official should be *above* reproach. Period.

No Constitution No Union

Congressperson John Lewis, whose ‘good trouble’ they love to quote so much, was arrested 45 times in his life. The last was in 2013 protesting for immigrants, during the Obama presidency.
