“Teachers are very frustrated. They’re competing with @tiktok_us dance videos when they’re supposed to be teaching a math class.” @GovKathyHochul on “bell to bell” cell phone ban set to begin in September. #NBC4NY


Remembering the one rainiest hour in Central Park history:
Just witnessed an incredibly boneheaded, impossibly naïve performance from @NYCMayor Bill de Blasio tonight at the We Love NYC Homecoming concert. Just got home, soaking wet from the show cancelled due to rain and lightning. 1/?
NEW:”An increasingly urgent and dangerous situation.” @danielsgoldman says the detention of immigrants who are here legally — at the MDC in Brooklyn —has escalated. #NBC4NY

Asked about @NYCMayor assertion that @andrewcuomo is dividing anti-Mamdani voters, Cuomo Spox @RichAzzopardi said of Adams and recent polls: “He’s so underwater with New York voters, he should consider growing gills.” #NBC4NY
“This city is at a crossroads.” @UFT President Michael Mulgrew explaining his union’s endorsement of @ZohranKMamdani in the general election after *not* backing anyone in the primary. He is someone who has “clearly broken through to the people of this city.” #NBC4NY

It’s actually not - Jim Walden is suggesting an independent poll take place in mid-October with support of CFB and more While frmr Gov David Paterson suggested that business and civic leaders support a single candidate and have candidates rally behind the others in a month or 2
This is the proposal that @NYGovPaterson55 embraced today that the @andrewcuomo campaign is reviewing. amny.com/news/walden-fr…

First ever sweep for the Blue Jays over the #Yankees in Toronto. It was a disastrous series. And to add injury to insult - Clarke Schmidt left the game with a forearm injury.

Excited to start this new chapter with MSNBC! @MSNBC hollywoodreporter.com/business/busin…
Big news for New Yorkers who care about making our elections more fair and open! A proposal to hold local elections in even years to align with high-turnout presidential contests may be on the ballot in November.

Today, voters made their voices heard, demanding a more affordable, more livable New York City. I hear them loud and clear. @ZohranKMamdani built a formidable grassroots coalition, and I look forward to speaking with him in the days ahead about his ideas on how to ensure a safe,…
SPOTTED at Mamdani’s victory party: Brad Lander, Jumaane Williams, Chi Ossé, JohnLiu, Gustavo Rivera, Jabari Brisport, Antonio Reynoso, Jamaal Bowman, Marcela Mitaynes, Archila + Gripper, Murad Awawdeh, Cynthia Nixon, Patrick Gaspard, Steve Banks and a whole lot more.
As supporters wait for @ZohranKMamdani to speak, cross-endorser @bradlander and activist/actress @CynthiaNixon share an embrace. #NBC4NY
Buoyant atmosphere at @ZohranKMamdani HQ in LIC moments after reports emerged that @andrewcuomo called Mamdani to concede. #NBC4NY
NEW: @andrewcuomo just conceded the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City to @ZohranKMamdani. Cuomo had universal name ID, a $25M PAC backing him and tons of institutional endorsements. Mamdani is a 33-year-old socialist. The magnitude of this can't be overstated.
I WAS WRONG It's not said enough on social media or on this platform. But I was team "we'll see" relative to what early voting numbers meant, uncertain if it would mean a higher turnout than four years ago. Welp we've doubled 2021's early... 👉Turnout is up perhaps significantly
