New Yorkers will not be content with low hanging fruit, when what's needed is to uproot the tree.

Without an NYPD hiring freeze and a commitment to a just transition away from the current school safety model, I‘ll use my Charter power to prevent the execution of the budget.

There’s something about the absurdity of this situation that cries out for @willmenaker to read about it on @CHAPOTRAPHOUSE: https://t.co/vamFyOfSNT

Laughing out loud, by myself, but very quietly because it's nap time and if the boys wake up ten minutes early I'll be devastated.

@fawfulfan As a former speech therapy kid, this kind of bullshit outrage is insulting.

[Peter Rugh @JohnReedsTomb]

@fawfulfan His childhood stutter leads him to make up stories like the one about getting arrested in South Africa? Ummm, there’s one candidate in this race who was arrested over that issue and doesn’t have to opportunistically brag about it.

Forever this

Say it ain’t so, Dinkins, say it ain’t so. But he also endorsed Bloomberg’s appointment of Cathie Black as school chancellor, @sunraysunray, as did Trump. He and Bloomberg have had a thing for each other for a while.

The only thing we can guarantee from this debate is that @BernieSanders is going to fight for everything he professes.

[Peter Rugh @JohnReedsTomb]

I can’t believe this man still has a job writing this insane, childish gibberish. Am I reading this right? Is Tom Friedman suggesting a Bernie/Bloomberg unity ticket?
