I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

I’m calling on my fellow public servants - Democratic and Republican - to reject the influence of AI and Big Tech spending in our politics and elections.   Americans deserve full confidence that our federal government focuses on their safety, not on companies' profit margins.

Every $1000 you invested in Tesla 6-years ago would be worth over $15,000 today. So when you hear Tesla is "crashing", that's people talking about the short-term day-to-day variation in the price - not the reality over time. There's no vehicle on the planet that's safer or more capable.

In high school, my teachers taught us to investigate source material. Where information came from, who was telling it, who they were telling it to. Not all information is created equal. Anyway, it took me a while to realize that level of analysis, fundamental in my life, is not widely taught.

Richest 1% of Britons owns more wealth than the bottom 70% of the population combined. 50 richest families hold more wealth than the poorest half of the population combined. The concentration of wealth in fewer hands has not provided the necessary economic stimulus. Need redistribution.

There's a sickness in our society. I watch the arrested rapists scroll by in my feed every day. I think back to Trump's "grab them by the pussy" a decade ago. The children of that time saw that person get revered by the country - elected president twice. That's what they learned. He is a cancer.

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.

Netherlands: "Even years after infection, the situation remains hopeless for many post-COVID patients" A new study found just 12% of post-COVID patients had largely recovered 3 years after infection. Two-thirds were still unable to work or were working fewer hours due to ongoing symptoms.
A screenshot of a Dutch news article from NU.nl, written by healthcare and education reporter Kim Einder, dated 29 Sep 2026 at 18:06.
The bold white headline text overlaid on the main photograph reads: "Even years after infection, the situation remains hopeless for many post-COVID patients."
The photo shows a female patient undergoing a cardiopulmonary exercise test in a medical clinic. She is sitting slightly reclined while operating a stationary exercise bicycle ergometer. She is wearing light blue leggings, a white vest over a dark long-sleeve shirt, a pulse oximeter clip on her finger, and a blue medical mask structure over her mouth and nose connected to an airflow tube. To the right, a healthcare worker's hands are visible holding a clipboard with a data sheet.

229 new affordable homes are coming to the Bronx.

We just broke ground on Sol on Park:
• 80 homes for current NYCHA residents
• 69 homes for formerly homeless seniors
• 79 homes for low- and middle-income seniors
• 8,000 sq. ft. of community space, including a health and wellness center 

This is what’s possible when we invest in NYCHA and use the power of government to build a City where New Yorkers come first.
