True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing.

Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter.

Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧡

Trump ramps up federal crackdown in D.C. Despite falling crime rates.

While Trump claims that crime is "totally out of control" in Washington to justify a possible takeover of the nation's capital, crime has dropped dramatically in the city, with violent crime down 26% from last year. www.axios.com/local/washin...

The third leading cause of cancer deaths. It used to be 4th when my father died of it in 2008. Absolutely monstrous to shut mRNA research down.

I believe one of the new mRNA vaccines was expected to treat colon cancer, and another had the potential to keep pancreatic cancer from recurring. That’s what they’re taking away.

Mike Johnson-I'm not going to allow a vote on the Epstein Files.

Texas Democrats-We're not going to allow a vote on redistricting.

Republicans are only clutching their pearls on one of these.
Odd, right?

Cuts to Data Collection May Erode Reliability of Economic Statistics

Powell stressed today that the Fed's decisions will be based on how the economic data performs in coming months.
One problem: That data may be becoming less reliable.

Bove misled lawmakers about his actions in NYC mayor case, evidence suggests The details from a whistleblower complaint emerged hours before a final vote on Bove’s nomination to a federal judgeship.

Emil Bove misled lawmakers in his confirmation hearings for a federal judgeship when he denied targeting prosecutors who refused to go along with his dismissal of corruption charges against New York Mayor Eric Adams.

Gazans are starving. Here’s what lack of food does to the human body. Children suffering under severe food shortages can face lifelong consequences.

More than 2 million people in Gaza β€” including some 1 million children β€” face desperate and worsening hunger.

Doctors and nutrition experts say the children who survive the lack of nourishment are often face a lifetime of health woes.

It didn't get 1/100th the attention of what happened in NYC, but in Reno today, a gunman opened fire in the valet parking area of a big casino. He killed three people and injured three others, including a cop. This happens every day in America, red and blue.

It's not the city. It's the guns.

EPSTEIN SAGA LATEST: Even halfway around the world, Trump hasn’t escaped questions about the Jeffrey Epstein drama that has consumed Washington in recent weeks. Asked at his Scotland presser about an incident where Trump reportedly threw the late financier out of Mar-a-Lago, he told reporters: β€œFor years I wouldn't talk to Jeffrey Epstein. He did something that was inappropriate. He hired help and I said β€˜Don't ever do that again.’ He stole people that worked for me and I said β€˜Don’t ever do that again.’ And he did it again and I threw him out of the place … and that was it. I’m glad I did.”

It’s never what the person did - it’s what the person did to Trump.

Phone Calls Are a Lifeline in Prison, But They Are Expensive A recent decision from the FCC will keep jail and prison phone calls more costly for at least the next couple years.

PJP contributors react to a recent decision by the FCC to delay a new rule that would have made phone calls more affordable.

I have said this ad nauseam - govt does things the private sector can’t or won’t do. Much of that falls into the health research bucket. His own daughter benefited from it but refuses to acknowledge it. This absolutism is literally killing people.

Not to mention the fact that POTUS tried to trick the media on the cost of renovations and embarrass the fed chair. But he’s too smart and called him out on the fallacy. (Plus the staff who prepped POTUS with this crap…)
