If Brown is fanatical on the anti-Slavery side, why aren't people who enslaved, raped and brutalized others fanatical on the pro-slavery side?

It's a sign of how fucked up the country is that images of long lines to vote evoke comments like 'this is so great to see.' It's a sign of colonized imagination.

I've got a woman in my mentions insisting Chuck Schumer doesn't need to speak out about the president's efforts to strip a Democratic congresswoman of her citizenship because "some people in the House already said something." Oh, word? Then no need for the actual leaders to lead here. My bad.

I don't find that video of those young Black people walking back to their campus uplifting or inspiring in the least. It should enrage every person and all of us of a certain age should be embarrassed that they have to do this in 2026.

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

Quantum is poised to become a multi-trillion dollar industry in the next few years. We think New Yorkers should share in that profit. 

That's why we negotiated that New Yorkers get board seats and a 15% stake of intellectual property that comes out of NYU's Quantum Fabrication facility.

Because all New Yorkers should benefit from the economic success of this city.

I always have mixed feelings about these images. Yes, it's inspiring to see these college students committed to democracy, but the fact that they have to do anything remotely difficult to exercise their voting rights is enraging. Taking part in a democracy should be as easy as possible.

27,000 New Yorkers lost their SNAP benefits due to cruel cuts from the federal government. If you’re one of them, NYC is here to help. As of October 1st, you can re-enroll for SNAP benefits. But there are new rules. Call 718-SNAP-NOW or visit nyc.gov/ACCESSHRA for help re-enrolling.

Black text on a white background
“More than 100 elected officials have joined me in calling on parking lot and garage owners across New York City: Don’t give ICE a place to operate. Don’t rent to them. Tell them they’re not welcome.

Last week, ICE agents shot Oscar Belgal in the neck in Marble Hill while his 5-year-old son sat in the car. They had been staging nearby in a private parking lot.

Our city laws keep ICE off public property. Now, we’re calling on private property owners to do the same. One garage on Morton Street already removed ICE vehicles after neighbors spoke out. Every owner has that power.”
