This morning, an ICE agent murdered a woman in Minneapolis—only the latest horror in a year full of cruelty.
As ICE attacks our neighbors across America, it is an attack on us all. New York stands with immigrants today, and every day that follows.
Real talk: ICE has become a wanton & wayward posse of cowboys, haphazardly tearing apart families and fixated on deporting law-abiding taxpayers waiting for their papers. I struggle to see what any of this has to do with the safety of our nation or the security of our borders...
It is important to note that the police did NOTHING to prevent or stop the mass shooting in Manhattan. We need other strategies than sending SWAT teams after everyone (including the shooter) is already dead.

Me Rudely: Hello?
*Hi. I'm with the Zohran Mamdani campai-"
Me, rudely cutting them off: "I already ranked him first!"
*Thanks! Have a great day*
Me, still rudely: "Aight, you too"
.@ConEdison is asking all customers in NYC to conserve energy. Use air conditioner at highest comfortable temperature. Limit use of appliances during peak hours. Report outages to https://t.co/1D7Sd8doQD or 800-75-CONED (26633). Multilingual & ASL link: https://t.co/EDp1gMOb9U
@BrooklynBubbler@Boenau Your post perfectly demonstrates the point as not just was no one put at safety risk, but no one was even inconvenienced by the actions of cyclists.
@DrDiamondfire Biden wanted to return to the JCPOA, and Harris supported continuing that negotiation, I believe Iran wanted concessions that a new President wouldn't just pull out of the agreement, and *gestures broadly*.
Agree it's stupid.
Remember when Cuomo hated de Blasio so much that he refused to put any effort into the last Census, and then New York came up short by less than a thousand people and lost a whole seat in Congress, which led to the loss of the house & the passage of Trump’s agenda?
Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.
While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.
This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.
Mayoral candidate Brad Lander was cuffed and detained by ICE agents after asking to see a warrant for people who were detained after an immigration hearing. Video from the city comptroller’s press secretary @chloecbristow. She says he’s still being held in 26 Federal Plaza.
"Schools aren't for political stunts." What a fucking stupid thing to say. Its baked into American Colleges and Universities blood to be political. What an ahistorical, moronic thing to say. Free Palestine and protect the brave students of Brooklyn College.
@KathyParkPrice Was commuting from Flatbush to Midtown for 6th grade with my 8th grade sister in 1998. It's normal today, and it was normal 30 years ago.
@InnaVernikov@NYCCCommonSense It has been voluntary in NYC since October 2023. Common sense would say that you take 10 minutes in what, 18 months, to educate your constituents instead of opposing progress.
