Democrats set out to study young men. Here are their findings. https://t.co/cUIqDQw0KF

GOP offices have a staffing problem, not enough folks who work in them understand sports. Cultural gap with most Americans.

[Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur]

A phenomenal moment in the Senate.

Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta.

Smith denies it.

Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury.

Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland.

Watch the whole thing:

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

The Talmud teaches that anyone who sustains one soul, has sustained an entire world. For generations, Jewish New Yorkers have sustained our city. Today, we are launching the first-ever municipal Strategy to Combat Antisemitism.

Together, we will ensure Jewish New Yorkers are safe and celebrated. We will invest in their protection, their history, and their future.

Our safety and our thriving are tied together.

Lmao bears

[Monica Klein @MonicaCKlein]

This is completely false.

Being a leftist means taking big shots. And making them.

New York City has spent one-third of this year under a Flash Flood Emergency activation.

Today, we are preparing for a nor’easter that could bring heavy rain and coastal flooding.

I brought together commissioners and senior leaders from more than a dozen City agencies and departments at City Hall to coordinate a whole-of-government response to protect our neighborhoods.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

New Yorkers, a storm is arriving today.

Don't travel if you don't have to. Never drive or walk through floodwater.

Call 911 if you are in danger, and report nonemergency issues to 311.

Look out for one another and stay safe.

DoorDash reportedly spent $1.4 million trying to stop Mamdani from becoming NYC Mayor, only for him to win and force them to pay $131.5 million for underpaying 264,000 delivery workers

That's around 100 times what they spent against him

Last night I planted an olive tree at Gracie Mansion with Palestinian families from Gaza. 

May peace be our future.

Never been to the opera before?
Now’s your chance. We’re giving away 70,000 free tickets to the @MetOpera at the iconic Lincoln Center. Go to https://t.co/LpKzEcL0V5 to enter the lottery. There’s not a bad seat in the house.

I went to college in western mass.

[Pedro Sánchez @sanchezcastejon]

Today, @NYCMayor and I discussed a shared challenge: building an economy for the many.

Spain is showing that another economic model is possible. More jobs. Better wages. Less inequality.

Social justice is not the enemy of economic growth.

[Micheál Martin @MichealMartinTD]

Great to spend time with New York’s Mayor Mamdani today.

Between riding the subway and calling bingo at the New York Irish Center, we had a warm and thought provoking conversation on the enduring relationship between Ireland and this city.

[Ed Miliband @Ed_Miliband]

It was great to meet @NYCMayor this week.

Progressive parties are so much stronger when we learn from and stand with each other - from the cost of living to climate action to peace in Israel and Palestine.

NEW POLL> Mayor Mamdani has the highest state-wide favorability rating of any elected official in New York.

[Joe Anuta @joeanuta]

When Hochul's 46-43 opinion rating is taken into account (along with those of AOC and Bruce Blakeman), a new Quinnipiac poll shows @NYCMayor with the highest approval ratings of any elected in the state

[Today in Yacht Rock @in_yacht]

Steely Dan’s sixth studio album, “Aja”, was released on this day in 1977. The album reached platinum in three months, won a Grammy for Best-Engineered Non-Classical Recording, and is the band’s highest-selling album. All seven tracks are certified yacht rock.

America is free only when the media is competitive, independent, and accountable to the people.

This merger strikes a chilling blow against that freedom — and hands even more power to billionaires like David Ellison to decide what Americans see and hear, all while lifting scrutiny off the federal leaders who pushed it through. I am grateful to Attorney General Tish James for the protections she secured for workers.

This decision is a shameful monument to corruption and a betrayal that the American people won't soon forget.
