57 incarcerated people graduated from high school at Rikers Island today. Mayor Mamdani didn't just post about it, he showed up and spoke at their graduation. Because real leadership isn't only about punishment. It's about believing people can change.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.
