Very proud to have helped build the awesome @NYRenews coalition

“The bill’s passage would be the culmination of several years of activism by groups like NY Renews, a coalition of nearly 200 organizations, which repeatedly rallied in Albany and pushed policymakers to act.”

[John Schwartz @jswatz]

“This is going to change the way every New Yorker lives.” The state will be required to get 70 percent of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030, and shift entirely to carbon-free power a decade later. @jessemckinley @bradplumer https://t.co/9ohyglDpLL

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

This merger is bad for New Yorkers three times over. Thousands of jobs at risk here in the city. Streaming bills going up as competition disappears. And two of America’s most powerful media companies under one roof, deciding what you watch and what you hear.

Today, as Warner Bros. and Paramount shareholders vote, New York City is on record: this merger should be stopped.

HAPPENING NOW - biggest veteran and military family civil disobedience in a generation. 150 people being arrested for demanding an end to the war on Iran. The cost of war is too damn high. @vetsaboutface

Notice they’re all angry white guys

I don’t remember the last time the US Senate, controlled by Republicans, passed a bill on a voice vote without dissent, then the Republican-controlled House essentially told them to F themselves.

Can somebody remind me?

[Marc Weiss @MarcNWeiss]

@equalityAlec Alec, can you lay out — or link to — some of the constraints and demands that would be effective?

@HannahFNYP I was there and he said scourge of antisemitism, not scores

This is the NYC village Parade and it’s definitely one of a kind and fantastic as they’re dancing to Thriller by the late great Michael Jackson! 👇👇👇👇

As a longtime admirer of Patti Smith in all of her many manifestations, I couldn’t be more proud of my daughter Amy’s wonderful, poetic piece about her.

Wow, just wow.

[Amy Weiss-Meyer @AmyWeissMeyer]

I spoke to Patti Smith about her new memoir, Bread of Angels—a book about childhood, fame, marriage, motherhood and so much more that also includes a big revelation about her heritage

Today is a great day to read about Patti Smith. @AmyWeissMeyer's latest: https://t.co/it1Qaw8VRp

Last year, Andrew Cuomo brought in nearly $5 million for "consulting."

We don't know who paid him.

Or who he now owes.

[Zohran Kwame Mamdani @ZohranKMamdani]

In 2023, we won the Build Public Renewables Act — a groundbreaking law empowering NYS to speed up the clean energy transition and lower your bills with publicly-owned power.

Today is the deadline to tell @NYPAenergy we need a plan for 15 GW by 2030. Take urgent action below.

@JAllen_NYC @JCColtin Cuomo and Adams have huge name recognition and many folks are just hearing about Mamdani for the first time now. Remember he was at 1% in primary polls just a few months ago — he has plenty of time between now and November to introduce himself to the city and expand his lead.

[Marc Weiss @MarcNWeiss]

@katie_honan @npfandos @ericadamsfornyc I’m sure Bill Ackman made some very smart investments to accumulate his obscene wealth, but investing in yet another corrupt politician is the opposite of a smart investment.

Adams will either be wiped by Mamdani, or if Adams should win it will be a disaster for everyone.

[Nicholas Fandos @npfandos]

NEW: Real estate giants. DoorDash. Billy Joel. Bill Ackman and 15 other billionaires.

How the superrich and big $$ interests are propping up Andrew Cuomo's run for mayor, and raising questions about why they are giving.

@npfandos “This is a country that believes in second chances," said @SenGillibrand.

Does she believe in second chances for a man who has not only never taken responsibility for his actions but viciously attacks the women he abused? So much for core values.

[Marc Weiss @MarcNWeiss]

Hilarious satirical article by Brian Allen, art critic for @NRO (National Review). Just weeks after catastrophic LA fires, with 2024 the hottest in human history, Allen pulls together all the climate deniers funniest lines.
