I am deeply saddened by the death of a New Yorker in City custody at a jail on Rikers Island early this morning. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones as they grieve this loss.
We do not yet know the cause of death, but we do know that too many New Yorkers have died on Rikers Island. The Department of Correction and its oversight partners will investigate the circumstances surrounding his death.
Our administration is fully committed to the critical work of creating better conditions in our city’s jail system and closing Rikers Island as quickly as possible.
Democratic Socialists of America extends our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Dolly Parton, a hero of the working-class and an inspiration to us all.
10-1 outspent.

The same employment protection he has spent his career blocking other Americans from having.

Mamdani announces $122 million to hire 1,000 more teachers in 2027. This must be why they say socialism is so horrible. Tax dollars go to the schools instead of endless foreign wars.

THIS IS SO WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ELECT POLITICIANS THAT AREN'T BOUGHT OUT!
Last night also demonstrates the problems with AOC’s don’t rock the boat strategy. Since she has refused to endorse against sitting members, she is on the sidelines of a movement that she herself helped to kick off and logically should be leading. Missing the entire Dem Tea Party at the federal level because the once insurgent is now a de facto incumbent protector.
