This weekend I was proud to celebrate Lunar New Year in Manhattanโ€™s Chinatown & at Brooklynโ€™s Annual Lantern Festival.

It was a privilege to join families & my colleagues in government to celebrate the year of the fire horse!

Wishing everyone a happy and prosperous new year. Gong Hei Fat Choi! ๐Ÿงง๐Ÿด

I was privileged to join the Greater NY Chamber of Commerce for our annual Black History Month Awards Ceremony at the close of last month.

At least, per their email, it was a "Columbia residential building." So I think an apartment not a dorm. However, to your point, I do not explicitly know and have seen conflicting information.

At 6:30am this morning, ICE agents entered a Columbia dorm and detained student Ellie Aghayeva without a judicial warrant.

This should outrage and alarm all of us.

We must stand up for our community and demand accountability against ICE agents illegally abducting our neighbors. This must end.

Four years ago, Russia launched its full scale invasion of Ukraine. The toll has been staggering.

Yesterday, I joined the Heart & Valor Foundation and received artwork from a six year old Ukrainian girl. Her drawing captured both the cost of war and her countryโ€™s strength.

On February 12, I celebrated my 30th birthday ๐ŸŽ‰ ๐Ÿฅณ.

It was made even more special as I was able to celebrate alongside our Correction Officers at the NYC Correction Department Desi Society Gala.

It was an honor to celebrate my 30th surrounded by the men and women I am proud to serve each day.

I was privileged to attend a roundtable discussion with Natan Sharansly hosted by the Combat Antisemitism Movement.

I was also honored to be able to meet with nova Survivor, Natalia Sanandaji and discuss ways that we can continue to root out and combat antisemitism across both our City and State.

The very day after Holocaust remembrance day. No one should live in fear because of their identity or faith.

Praying for the safety of all involved.

๐Ÿ“ขBright and early with @nynurses.bsky.social on the UWS as they demand a fair contract, safe staffing, and strong patient care.

After months of delays and retaliation, nurses across the city took a stand.

Proud to be with them as the strike kicked off. New York stands with our nurses. ๐Ÿฉบ๐Ÿ’ช

I stand with our NY Nurses!

Nurses have spent months trying to reach a fair agreement and instead faced stalling and retaliation.

We must all stand with New York State Nurses Association as they demand safe staffing, quality patient care, and fair pay and benefits.

Why is Iran facing its biggest protests in years? Iranians are taking to the streets as a growing movement of civic unrest threatens a fragile stability

Iran is not "facing" protests.

Iran IS protesting.

These article titles are basically manufacturing consent.

Treating it as if the protests are a problem and not the voice of the people who ARE Iran.

Go Iranians! ๐Ÿ’ช
