This @NYMag piece lists many education issues that @NYCMayor has yet to address, but fails to note that his schools chancellor, Kamar Samuels, remains under investigation for violating procurement rules while a Manhattan superintendant and letting his deputy take the fall, raising questions about his ethics and honesty.

No reasonable law enforcement agency would ever fire a hail of bullets into a car that presents no safety threat … with a five-year-old in the backseat.

We need an independent investigation. We need Oscar to be released from custody immediately. And we need ICE to get the hell out of our city.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's office rejected calls from congressional nominee Darializa Avila Chevalier for NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch to step down. "Jessica Tisch is the Police Commissioner and there are no plans to change that," a City Hall spokesperson told Politico.

why is @ZohranKMamdani tearing down solid built buildings and giving public lands to a maga billionaire?

MORE SHAME ON YOU to #NYS Assemblymember #TonySimone scurrying away from his @nycha constituents that refuse demolition and privatization of their homes. He refuses to answer the difference between the strong tenant protections of Section 9 vs the unstable subsidy of section 8. @Acpinky21Cruz and other tenants pursue and press him on the issue. @nycDSA @DavidFBrand @RonLeeReporting @Gregbsmithnyc @gregmocker @lizkimtweets @luisferre @VickuE @emmagf @errollouis @GersonBorrero @Dean_Moses @JCColtin @TweetBenMax @InTheMkts @Jill_Jorgensen @pderienzo @lincolnanderson @digifigs_1 @laylaLawGisiko @midtownsouthnyc @infopobn @fuelgrannie @archpaper @monicamoralestv @HannahFNYP @nick_garber @fuelgrannie @infopobn @kirstentheodos @71northmoore @CCLandUseNY @nycdsa_housing @myceeta @EVANGELIST_SC @OneNycha @HolmesIsaacs @ManhattanBoard4 @SaveSection9 @nycdsa_housing @FecStop13647 @jamudd @profwolff @ChrisLynnHedges @Chrislejohnyc @Chrislejohnyc @VickieforNYC @CMCHRISBANKS42 #mamdani #nycha #KeepPublicHousingPublic #NoDemolition

Question for “Ask the Mayor” @NYCMayor on @WNYC @BrianLehrer — Fulton and Elliott Chelsea residents do not want their homes to be demolished nor privatized bc rents increase and displacement can occur. As a socialist who is supposed to be for the people, why aren’t you listening to them? @digifigs_1 @laylaLawGisiko @FecStop13647 @SaveSection9 @myceeta @fuelgrannie @infopobn #SaveSection9 #Nycha #KeepPublicHousingPublic #NoDemolition

THE SOCIALIST EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES! Even the @NYCMayor’s own @nycDSA who elected him is having an existential crisis about SAVING PUBLIC HOUSING. Unlike our so-called ‘socialist’ mayor, there are many in the #DSA that want to save #NYCHA, the last bastion of genuinely affordable housing left in #nyc. See below for a resolution DSA members will vote on at their November convention to save @Nycha. The resolution has more than required signature threshold to present this resolution, and the plan is to get even more. Take that Zorhan: your housing policies will collapse against the weight of public opinion! @DavidFBrand @RonLeeReporting @Gregbsmithnyc @gregmocker @lizkimtweets @luisferre @VickuE @emmagf @errollouis @GersonBorrero @Dean_Moses @JCColtin @TweetBenMax @InTheMkts @Jill_Jorgensen @pderienzo @lincolnanderson @digifigs_1 @laylaLawGisiko @midtownsouthnyc @infopobn @fuelgrannie @archpaper @monicamoralestv @HannahFNYP @nick_garber @fuelgrannie @infopobn @kirstentheodos @71northmoore @VECambranes @sunnysideyards @CCLandUseNY @nycdsa_housing @myceeta @EVANGELIST_SC @OneNycha @HolmesIsaacs @ManhattanBoard4 @villagedems @CRDCNYC @DIDNYC

Always standing up for tenant rights and my fellow NYCHA residents every one deserves clean, safe and affordable housing, not demolition and we must preserve public housing for our families and hard working New Yorkers. #nycha #savesection9 #affordablehousing #NoDemolition

Generally described by neo-liberals as unlocking value. The phrase is revealing because the value of that land was not locked, it was deliberately unclaimed for the sake of social use. https://t.co/Qk2dM28Nha #publichousing

New: During his first 35 days as mayor, Zohran Mamdani had 145 “private appointment” entries on his government schedules, per records we've obtained.

At least some of those appointments were political in nature, his office confirms. https://t.co/iUK1htwwXZ
