I was in Madison Square Garden to witness the Rangers win the Stanley Cup in 1996. I was at Shea Stadium in 1969 and in 1986 to see the Mets win the World Series. I have been blessed beyond words to see sports magic happen live. What I witnessed on Wednesday night from the back row of the Garden was miraculous….absolute magic that will live in my heart forever. To be able to share that with my two sons and daughter in law was beyond beautiful because I was able to watch them experience something I have known in my soul since my 11th birthday on October 16th 1969. Everything is possible. Dream big. Never give up hope. Believe in the impossible and make it happen.
Go Knicks.
You are a team for the ages.
🚨BREAKING: A manager at a local diner asked ICE agents for a warrant before they searched a private areas of the business… and their response… slamming him to the ground, and putting a knee in his back, leaving him injured.
Because apparently exercising your constitutional rights is now being treated like obstruction.
According to witnesses, ICE agents were chasing someone who ran into the restaurant after a traffic stop. The manager reportedly told them they could not just storm through the kitchen without judicial authorization.
Because the Fourth Amendment is still a thing… even though ICE agents keep pretending it isn’t.
Law enforcement cannot just search private areas of a business because they feel like it. A kitchen, in a restaurant, is not a public space.
When agents do not have consent, exigent circumstances, or a valid warrant signed by a judge… then managers have every right to question that search.
That is literally how constitutional protections work.
And the fact that the manager was injured, after asserting those rights, should outrage everyone.
Rights either apply to everyone… or they are not rights at all.
I want to thank Senator John Cornyn for his years representing our state.
We don’t agree on everything, but we both still believe in public service.
To Senator Cornyn’s supporters: you have a place in our campaign.
MIN: Do you know how much new energy China put online last year?
BURGUM: Intermittent or base load?
MIN: All energy. 543 GW. How much was renewable? 434 GW.
BURGUM: But only when the wind is blowing and sun is shining
MIN: Meanwhile, the US put up 53 GW of new energy last year -- less than 10% of China. You're clear bias against renewables is harming our national security.
NYPD Captain Wilson making political statements in uniform to members of the public, knowingly on camera, denigrating @NYCMayor, saying he’s “nonsense” and “expendable” and “not my mayor.”
Is this @NYPDPC’s influence?
Joe Biden inherited an out of control pandemic from Trump that made it unsafe to go out in public, quickly got it under control, then presided over a historically strong job market and rising wages. His economic stewardship was the envy of the world. Trump on the other hand is now poised to leave his successor a flaming bag for the second time.
