So glad Yeonsoo Go is home.
But she should've never been taken.
A 20-year-old student with no record was detained by ICE after doing everything right.
This isn't justice nor public safety. This is a clear example of ICE overreach and why real oversight and reform can't wait.

This evening I joined elected colleagues, community members, and the family of Detective First Grade Didarul Islam for a vigil held at the 47 Precinct.
Det. Islam died a hero in service to our city. We owe him more than words. His courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Absolutely heartbreaking news out of Midtown. One officer dead and five civilians.
There are no words.
The situation is now contained thanks to our @nypdnews.bsky.social officers. But this brazen attack on regular New Yorkers just trying to finish out a Monday in the office is horrifying.

I grew up at West Side Kids.
For all 29 years of my life, it's been a constant on 84th. No matter where I was headed, seeing it on the corner always reminded me of my childhood.
It is a heartbreaking loss to the UWS community to see this staple closing.
