Bill de Blasio

Former Mayor of New York City. Love my beautiful family and my amazing city! Proud Brooklynite. Fighting for working people and our democracy. (he/him)

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

This is revolutionary! A forceful and direct challenge to Big Tech and all the damage they have done. Gutsy move by @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

I am simply not prepared to be a bystander when the safety and happiness of our children are at stake.

We will ban social media access for under 16s, and give children their childhoods back.

Bill Ritter loves our city, seeks the truth and epitomizes dignity.
He is everything a journalist should be.
Bill, NYC loves you and we’re with you

$10 million from the man who gave NYC stop and frisk, defended it for years and only apologized when he needed votes for President.
That’s the money behind Micah Lasher

[Michael Lange @MichaelLangeNYC]

The largest single super PAC in NY-12 is not from any Artificial Intelligence group (supporting or opposing Alex Bores), but from former Mayor Michael Bloomberg (supporting Micah Lasher) with $10M

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

Bloomberg tried to buy the Presidency in 2020 and lost.
He tried to buy the Mayoralty for Cuomo in 2025 and lost.
Now he’s trying to buy a House seat.
And he will lose again.

When I suggested taxing the wealthy, the Governor at the time always blocked it.
My how things have changed! @GovKathyHochul is doing the bold thing and the right thing: putting working people first.
A very good day for NYC and ⁦@NYCMayor⁩ https://t.co/f4XSr5xGhh

To all the critics of this plan:
Neither the private sector nor the public sector has solved the growing problem of food deserts.
So kudos to @ZohranKMamdani for not accepting the broken status quo and helping families get affordable food.
That doesn’t sound so radical to me…

No one should have as much power as Sam Altman has right now.
We need to rein him in, so it’s time to #QuitGPT. Act now! @QuitGPT

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

Sid, you really don’t know anything about @ZohranKMamdani. @NYCMayor loves our city and our country, hates all forms of prejudice, opposes political violence and wants to unify us. Which is helluva lot more than I can say for you since you just can’t stop spewing hate.

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

SUCH a smart move by @ZohranKMamdani!
A transcendent plan for affordability and a perfect way to handle Trump.
Right on, Mayor!

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

I had a productive meeting with President Trump this afternoon.

I’m looking forward to building more housing in New York City.

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

A bold and brilliant move by @zohrankwamemamdani!
Exactly the right approach to Trump and a potentially transcendent plan for affordability for New Yorkers.
Right on, @nycmayor! https://t.co/O35rDx51jR

Very proud of @DanteqdeBlasio for taking a stand against ICE. And this father agrees: #AbolishICE

[Dante de Blasio @DanteqdeBlasio]

Just got out of jail for protesting ICE’s violent, authoritarian actions across the country. ICE has no place in NYC #AbolishICE

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

Trump created this crisis so he could emulate Nixon’s 1968 “Southern Strategy” and get Americans to vote in favor of “law and order” in the midterms. Now it’s backfiring. His call to ⁦@GovTimWalz⁩ shows he’s failing and he knows it. #AbolishICE https://t.co/QEfizmsR0U

This is the Kent State moment of the Trump era. #AbolishIce https://t.co/qajzQ7JovE

Take a stand against the “Donroe Doctrine” and for self-determination for Latin America. Join leaders from around world and @ProgIntl for our livestream from Bogotá Saturday, Jan 24 at 6:15pm.

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

Honored to join @ProgIntl at their emergency conference Nuestra América in Bogotá. Trump's ‘Donroe’ Doctrine is an urgent threat to stability of the Americas and self-determination of its peoples. Standing in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Colombia and beyond.

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

None of this would be happening if @ZohranKMamdani hadn’t campaigned on his “impossible” vision for universal childcare.
Deepest thanks @GovKathyHochul @NYCMayor

[Emma G. Fitzsimmons @emmagf]

Big news from Gov. Kathy Hochul on child care. She will announce today that she’s “committing to fully fund the first two years” of Zohran Mamdani’s implementation of free preschool for 2-year-olds:

If just one US soldier dies because of Trump’s illegal actions in Venezuela, he will continue to lose support from the American people AND even many in the MAGA movement will turn against him.

[Lula @LulaOficial]

Os bombardeios em território venezuelano e a captura do seu presidente ultrapassam uma linha inaceitável. Esses atos representam uma afronta gravíssima à soberania da Venezuela e mais um precedente extremamente perigoso para toda a comunidade internacional.

Atacar países, em flagrante violação do direito internacional, é o primeiro passo para um mundo de violência, caos e instabilidade, onde a lei do mais forte prevalece sobre o multilateralismo.

A condenação ao uso da força é consistente com a posição que o Brasil sempre tem adotado em situações recentes em outros países e regiões.

A ação lembra os piores momentos da interferência na política da América Latina e do Caribe e ameaça a preservação da região como zona de paz.

A comunidade internacional, por meio da Organização das Nações Unidas, precisa responder de forma vigorosa a esse episódio. O Brasil condena essas ações e segue à disposição para promover a via do diálogo e da cooperação.

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

Just like he did on affordability, @ZohranKMamdani is teaching a lesson to @TheDemocrats nationally: we need to be the anti-war party again.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

I was briefed this morning on the U.S. military capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, as well as their planned imprisonment in federal custody here in New York City.

Unilaterally attacking a sovereign nation is an act of war and a violation of federal and international law.

This blatant pursuit of regime change doesn’t just affect those abroad, it directly impacts New Yorkers, including tens of thousands of Venezuelans who call this city home. My focus is their safety and the safety of every New Yorker, and my administration will continue to monitor the situation and issue relevant guidance.

[Bill de Blasio @BilldeBlasio]

US intervention NEVER ends well. Millions of Americans still suffer the effects of Vietnam, Iraq and the endless wars. We need to get out of Venezuela NOW.
