A wonderful conversation with the Rev. Dr. @charliebelllive and Dean Patrick Malloy at @StJohnDivineNYC about Fr. Bell’s new book, “Unity, Anglicanism’s Impossibile Dream?”

Had a blast knocking doors with @QueersforKamala and @Broadway4Harris last weekend. On my way to phone bank today. Less than 2 weeks- foot on the gas 🇺🇸

Cardinal Timothy Dolan said he was "doubly disappointed" by the rejection from Kamala Harris of his invitation to the annual Al Smith dinner. But we are triply disappointed that Dolan did not have the courage to stand up to Donald Trump. https://t.co/akJsC6ELHP
This is a sad day for the city, and especially painful for so many Black New Yorkers who put our hope and faith in this Mayor.
We live in the greatest city in the world — and the Mayor must be fully focused on delivering for the millions who call it home. Many like my parents come here in search of opportunity; others like myself are born and raised by this vibrant city. Each New Yorker deserves a Mayor who is dedicated to serving our communities, and who upholds the dignity and integrity this office requires.
We need a leader who is fully focused, without distraction, on the enormous challenges we face — from housing affordability to public safety. A mayor under the weight of a serious indictment can no longer do that — and today I am calling on him to resign.
First and foremost, this is a sad day for New Yorkers. Trust in public institutions — especially City Hall — is essential for our local democracy to function and for our city to flourish. The hardworking people of New York City deserve a city government and leadership they can trust. Right now, they don’t have it.
Mayor Adams, like all New Yorkers, deserves due process, the presumption of innocence, and his day in court. However, it is clear that defending himself against serious federal charges will require a significant amount of the time and attention needed to govern this great city.
The most appropriate path forward is for him to step down so that New York City can get the full focus its leadership demands.
At this urgent moment, the City’s leaders must focus on how we can best enable steady governance so that New York City can move forward and thrive. As the comptroller of the city, I will do everything I can to help ensure this happens.
Let me get this straight: the NYPD opened fire on the subway yesterday in an attempt to stop a man who evaded the $2.90 fare (?), and in the process they ended up shooting him, 2 bystanders, and another cop?

As a traveler, I'm both a proud American and a citizen of the world — and I've got a few thoughts on this coming election.
This election is deeper than partisanship. It's far more than Republican versus Democrat. In the future, big challenges like pandemics, refugees, and climate change will be blind to borders. They'll be everyone's problem and only solved by working together as a family of nations.
The world needs not American isolation, but American leadership. Not the chaos of Trump, but the stability of @KamalaHarris.
Of course, how you vote is your choice. But if you believe, as I do, in the importance of nations working together constructively, the stakes are really high...and the best candidate is clear. Register to vote today at https://t.co/ghTvEdFIEP — and encourage your travelin’ friends to do the same!
We're appalled and deeply saddened by the apparent execution of 6 Israeli hostages by Hamas. All remaining hostages must be freed and Israel's catastrophic war in #Gaza must end. We stand with thousands in Israel, the U.S., and across the world demanding a #CeasefireNOW. The U.S. needs to finally use its leverage to get it done.

We are deeply alarmed by Israel's major military operations in the occupied West Bank. The horrific war in Gaza must be ended, not expanded. The U.S. must finally halt all weapons & military support and apply the pressure needed to secure a #CeasefireNOW.

Real Page has exacerbated the affordability crisis in the American housing market. Their market manipulation and price fixing, is just one of the many anti-trust issues I am working to address, including my bill the 21st Century Anti-Trust Act
