26 Federal Plaza is not a courthouse. It's an abduction trap—and a makeshift jail where asylum seekers are held for days in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions on the 10th floor. @nycpa and I are demanding an investigation into whether this de facto jail violates zoning laws.
Brad Lander and Jumaane Williams are calling on the Buildings and Fire commissioners to see if a makeshift jail inside 26 Federal Plaza is up to the city’s standards. DOB says it doesn’t have the authority to do that. thecity.nyc/2025/07/23/26-…
"It’s important, too, to remember what would be happening if the roles were reversed. Had Mamdani lost to Cuomo by 12 points, the entire Democratic Establishment...would have automatically backed Cuomo & blasted apart the socialist assemblyman for attempting a third-party bid..."

I fear too many people are drawing this conclusion. Zohran entirely reshaped the electorate. The vast majority of his #1 voters (cross-endorsements, WFP/DREAM) also ranked other non-Cuomo candidates. Had Mamdani not run at all, many of "his" voters don't turn out to begin with.
Only 5.1% of ballots were exhausted after 11 rounds! I think we can completely put to bed the (frankly insulting and condescending) idea that voters somehow can’t understand how to do Ranked Choice Voting.
🧵 The data you have all been waiting for! The NYC mayoral primary WITHOUT batch elimination (and some early analysis) 1) Zohran's first round (469,642) would have been enough to win against Cuomo's final round (443,229)
It's official: 54% of Democratic primary voters Don’t Rank Cuomo. DREAM worked. dreamfornyc.com/release-final-…

Andrew Cuomo is out here literally blaming Jews for losing the New York election. He does not care about Jewish safety. He's using antisemitism as a smokescreen for his own political gain. We won't be divided.

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends. But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month. See you soon, NYC.

Mamdani has been asked more times about a phrase he hasn't said than Cuomo has been asked about the women he sexually harassed.
the time you hauled “don’t vote for the homo” signs with your truck?
🚨 JUST IN: The man who built the ICE-tracking app just dared Trump’s entire administration to come for him. “Go ahead. Demonize me. Demonize the app. It’s called the First Amendment, look it up.” That’s the energy. You don’t need a badge or a bench to defend the Constitution,…

I joined Andrew Cuomo’s social media team - here’s a documentary about a day at the office
Andrew Cuomo eliminated over 200,000 units of public housing.
Met with @NY1 in Brooklyn today outside of Genesis Homes, an affordable housing development I opened in 1992 —home to 150 families, half of whom were previously homeless
HEY NOW! @melissadderosa @RichAzzopardi @ShontellSmith @KevinElkinsNY YOU GON LET HIM TALK ABOUT Y’ALL LIKE THAT?!?! Well, yes. Of course you are. 😏😏😏
Cuomo derides "all the geniuses" who "said I was way ahead for the entire campaign." It was polling - initially paid for and released by his allies - followed by his team who insisted he was "way ahead" and vigorously disputed any notion to the contrary. ny1.com/nyc/all-boroug…

I haven't seen/read all the relaunch interviews but seems like few Qs for Cuomo on the role the scandals played in his primary loss, most discussion on the type of campaign he ran. But they are connected, & he partly ran the type of campaign he did because of the scandals.
