Dear New York, at the very least, please give wonderful Democratic Socialist Mamdani a massive landslide victory so that he has a mandate.

For New Yorkers who work the night shift, it can be nearly impossible to participate in political life of our city.

So tonight weโ€™re bringing this campaign to them โ€” starting with taxi drivers waiting at LaGuardia.

"Talking" about health care later isn't going to do anything for people whose premiums are doubling or even quadrupling.

Prices are getting locked in. "Talking" about this LATER is TOO LATE.

Citing Trump Order on โ€œBiological Truth,โ€ VA Makes It Harder for Male Veterans With Breast Cancer to Get Coverage A Department of Veterans Affairs memo obtained by ProPublica erects new roadblocks to care for veterans with the rare but deadly cancer. The agency cites no new science but relies on an executive orde...

Citing a Trump executive order banning "gender ideology," the VA is withholding coverage and treatment for male veterans with breast cancer, an increasing condition among veterans exposed to toxic chemicals during service. 100 male veterans a year are diagnosed with breast cancer.

A mother of 8 was deported within 24 hours of reporting sexual harassment by an ICE contracto

She was following the rules & going through the process to get her green card

Someone working on behalf of ICE abused her.

She spoke out and was kicked out of the country.

Itโ€™s retaliation & itโ€™s wrong

ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out wearing masks in unmarked cars with no uniforms or identification as law enforcement to abduct people, protesters keep dumping pounds of glitter on them so that everyone can tell they're ICE for days afterwards.

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. Thatโ€™s why theyโ€™re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

The word โ€œantifaโ€ isnโ€™t new.

It was coined in the 1920โ€™s after a group of Italian anti-fascists began organizing to counter the growing fascism in Italy.

It was submitted for consideration by one of Merriam-Websterโ€™s lexicographers in 1955.

Iโ€™m proud to continue this more than 100 year tradition.

weโ€™ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what theyโ€™re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

Key Analyst Says U.S. is โ€˜Going Brokeโ€™ Under Trump JPMorganโ€™s David Kelly cited Trumpโ€™s tariffs as a reason the U.S. debt could balloon further.

#ETTD

JPMorganโ€™s David Kelly warns the U.S. is edging toward insolvency under Trump. Tariffs behave like a stealth tax, inflating prices, swelling deficits, and ballooning interest costs, shredding the fantasy that duties would pay down debt.
