Black text on a white page that reads as follows: 

Too often, homeless New Yorkers cycle from our hospitals to our streets — making it harder to continue treatment and find long-term stability. 

The City's Bridge to Home program in Manhattan ends the cycle by providing a safe place for New Yorkers to live while they receive medical care, apply to jobs, and find an apartment. The program has been a massive success.

Today, we’re expanding Bridge to Home to Brooklyn and Queens, so more New Yorkers get the help they need.

How are they this bad at politics? It’s absurd. Plus you have MAGA goober Tiffany calling out Crowley for not even having a public events page while @francescahongwi.bsky.social is out there busting her ass to get him elected. It’s almost like he’s trying to spike the election here.

25 years ago, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people, including 2,753 New Yorkers. As we remember that terrible day, let us also remember the first responders, office workers and strangers who ran toward danger to help each other.

Glenna Milberg has done a wonderful service for journalism students on how not to conduct an interview. Btw of the 5 ways a nation state can commit the legal definition of genocide, Israel has been documented to have done 4.

THREAD. Contrary to what you are being told, 40 years of polling have established that shifting money away from police/prisons toward social services is one of the most popular public policies among *all* political demographics. But it's not just that, it goes way deeper.

Greg, this is the type of political subgenius that you're echoing. Governor Tony Evers, who chose his heir like a King of Olde, telling 40+% of the party to piss right off. He wants people to volunteer for his heir and to expect nothing in return. I didn't back Hong but this arrogance is deadly.

The good vibes that are reverberating in America are, if anything, because the DSA is forcing America to acknowledge the left exists and Zohran achieving complete cultural victory in NYC. Everyone sees that shit and says, “hey, maybe socialism actually is based. I want that.”
