11 years ago I saw Andrew Cuomo's corruption up close. He hasn't changed, and that's why he's the wrong person to lead New York City. Let me take you back to when Cuomo weaponized an anti-corruption to protect his friends & investigate his enemies: open.substack.com/pub/janosmarto…

Crazy, but that's how it goes Millions of people living as foes Maybe it's not too late To learn how to love and forget how to hate
🖤 😢 LONDON (AP) — Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath singer and godfather of heavy metal, dies at 76 just weeks after farewell show.
Just absurd. A huge chunk of the workers who built the Empire State Building were Irish immigrants or the sons of immigrants, and Mohawk "skywalkers" from Quebec played a key role in erecting the building (and many other skyscrapers). They weren't "illegal," but that's because…
EMTs might be the most underpaid people in New York City
NYC EMT pay is a disgrace. City Hall should do what’s right amny.com/editorial/nyc-…
The police were never defunded. Enough with this nonsense.
Jessica Tisch strongly praises Mayor Eric Adams for pulling New York City out of the "defund abyss" and giving NYPD the resources it needs. She's speaking with the mayor at an event about subway surfing and highlighting 200 rescues made through a drone program.
“The bottom line is that crime is falling in the U.S. led by the largest one-year percentage point decline in murder ever recorded. If that sentence sounds familiar it’s because it’s basically identical to what I wrote last year about our crime trends.” open.substack.com/pub/jasher/p/a…
NYPD Detectives Endowment Association President Scott Munro told the daily news that the lawsuits against the Adams administration including the one where it is being alleged promotions were being sold “aren’t important to his members”. Every detective we talk to is furious
Strong staycation destination for this reason.
great paradox of nyc is that it’s full of workaholics but you can only truly enjoy it if you’re a little unemployed
Good move treating the NY Post as the unserious right-wing tabloid it is. They're obviously going to spend the next 4 years trying to destroy him regardless of what he says or does.
.@ZohranKMamdani has suggestions for the headline writers at the @nypost, because what takes the sting out of a headline like writing them yourself?
.@1199seiu has voted to endorse Dem mayoral candidate @ZohranKMamdani in the Nov. general election. The union, under its prev leadership, endorsed Cuomo in the primary
Why are you fighting back against releasing what your administration and DOJ knows about Epstein? Release the unedited video and the files. Bring it to light. That should clear everything up.
Forgive my language but this story is complete and utter bullshit. The WSJ should be ashamed for publishing it. Where is this letter? Would you be shocked to learn they never showed it to us before publishing it? Does anyone honestly believe this sounds like Donald Trump?
1. BREAKING On April 24, @elonmusk's Neuralink falsely self-certified as a "small disadvantaged business" on a federal filing, a designation that qualifies the company for preferential treatment as part of a racial and ethnic diversity initiative.

The scene, minutes before it happened!
Real reason I am a fan of @ZohranKMamdani. Months ago was invited by a S Islander who was hosting candidates on a back yard platform. While Z was speaking I leaned back my 215lb wide body splintered plastic chair to bits & hit ground. Z stopped speaking leaped off to help me up
Great news on massive homicide decrease coming out of Philly, on the heels of great news out of Baltimore. Data across the country is validating what some of us said during the 21-22 crime spike - that disruption from COVID was the driving cause, not "criminal justice reforms."
This is truly remarkable. We aren't likely to see another huge decrease this year, but we are still making good progress.
Matcha is actually way better for your health than coffee, and you don't crash every 2 hours. I encourage people to convert.
If you consume: - Labubu - Matchas - Dubai chocolate You need help. You’re being mercilessly wirejacked by the slop machine and you are helplessly falling prey to it.

“Climate change is one of the most pressing issues facing New Yorkers, and it’s hitting working-class communities the hardest,” 👏👏👏 -@ZohranKMamdani spox Local Law 97, our “Green New Deal” law, creates good jobs, reduces pollution & cuts utility bills via energy efficiency.😎
This is the industry that Trump's budget is trying to dismantle. It will only be our country's loss if they succeed, the rest of the world is moving forward.
More solar power has been installed since about the middle of 2023 than in the entire history of solar energy that came before.
