Bloomberg. Former NYC Deputy Mayor.

Attacking one of the City’s largest and most important employers is definitely a strategy, but it’s not a good one.

“We are working together with the governor to introduce New York City’s first ever pied-à-terre tax.

“Ken Griffin owns a penthouse that he bought for over $200M. This is the kind of wealth that is being stored in NYC.”

The Gotham Book Prize was created by @HowieWolf and @ptknitwear founder Bradley Tusk to celebrate the year's best books about New York City. This year's 11 finalists show that you can find great stories everywhere in this city — from our history and industry, to our arts and culture, to our nightlife and even our wildlife. https://t.co/rZAEceQtIy

Congestion pricing is working. A year of data shows traffic is down in the city and surrounding areas, streets are safer, and transit ridership and visits to the business district are up. A big win for New Yorkers. https://t.co/pzZ005YSFn

Thank you, San Francisco.

Two stunning political moments in the past 24 hours: Gov. Cox's eloquent appearance just now...and Bernie Sanders's extraordinary statement yesterday.

A few months ago Bradley Tusk told me he was going to do what he could to prevent underage CitiBike use — and in typical fashion he went to work and built support for change that will save lives. Kudos to all involved. https://t.co/szkmHqbVqD

I have found much to admire in the quality of the campaign @ZohranKMamdani has run, but if he doesn’t understand that many Jews hear violence in calls to globalize the intifada he is missing something very important about our city.

The award said Clutch POY. Last night? @jalenbrunson1 underlined it.

What appointing RFK Jr. to President-Elect Trump’s administration would mean for America’s health and Trump’s own political standing and legacy: https://t.co/7yCv09ANCp

I voted for @KamalaHarris without hesitation. When it comes to policy and personal integrity, the contrast could not be clearer, and I hope undecided voters with a history of supporting candidates in both parties join me. https://t.co/BpMWe9Hx6u

Paris dreamed big for the Olympics. I wrote about what it would mean for New York to do the same — even without the Games — in today’s @NYDailyNews.

Inspired by a trip to the Olympics, @MicahLasher has returned from Paris with some big ideas to make NYC better. https://t.co/9OzipgKGbd

[Errol Louis (@errollouis.bsky.social) @errollouis]

The ⁦@nytimes⁩ has decided to throw up its hands and let New York’s leaders emerge based on the half-truths promoted by politicians rather than the vast trove of reliable information gathered by the paper of record.

What a colossal blunder. https://t.co/CwRuLTdgMt

Sports is the universal language - and if I’m talking football with someone it doesn’t matter if they are a Republican or a Democrat. And once we are in a conversation who knows what other common ground we can find. We just have to begin the conversation.

@TomBevanRCP In 2016 Walz ran 12 points ahead of HRC in a congressional district that Trump won by 15 points. This is a guy who knows how to run and win in tough districts.

The pandemic both revealed and exacerbated the inequities in American health and medicine. This historic gift will begin to address this crisis.

Phenomenal piece.

[Jaclyn Jeffrey-Wilensky @jeffwilen]

We've got a very cool thing up on @Gothamist today - a super-granular map of gun violence in NYC, down to the block level, contextualized by @BKriegstein's tenacious reporting and her painstaking accounting of every New Yorker killed by bullets in 2024. https://t.co/xrToCU6QcX

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

The president is rightfully proud of his record.
But he is dangerously out-of-touch with the concerns people have about his capacitiies moving forward and his standing in this race.
Four years ago at this time, he was 10 points ahead of Trump.
Today, he is six points behind.
