Yesterday, white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside Gracie Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. Such hate has no place in New York City. It is an affront to our city’s values and the unity that defines who we are.
What followed was even more disturbing. Violence at a protest is never acceptable. The attempt to use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal, it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are.
I want to thank the brave men and women of the NYPD who acted quickly to keep New Yorkers safe. Our officers ran toward danger without hesitation, demonstrating once again the courage and dedication it takes to protect this city every single day.
My administration is closely monitoring the situation and I remain in close contact with our Police Commissioner.
💔🇮🇷 Minab school attack survivor recalls deadly strike that killed her brother and their teacher-mother
"When he [the brother] heard this sound, he said, 'I want to go save my mother.' He went up. They hit again, and he was martyred too... I miss them so much. I'm glad they are martyred and I want to follow in their footsteps. May the wrath of God consume America and Israel," she said, describing the moments the missiles struck.
Some countries have begun mediation efforts. Let's be clear: we are committed to lasting peace in the region yet we have no hesitation in defending our nation's dignity & sovereignty. Mediation should address those who underestimated the Iranian people and ignited this conflict
I’m voting NO on Trump and Netanyahu’s war in Iran.
The American people do not support Donald Trump dragging the United States into yet another endless war in the Middle East, and neither do I.
Netanyahu is the extremist who killed 75,000 in Gaza.
The extremist who said invading Iraq would create "enormous positive reverberations."
The extremist who has pushed U.S. presidents to go to war with Iran for decades.
Finally, he found a President who said yes.
Tragic.
By attacking on Iran Netanyahu has attempted to divert international attention away from Gaza. International media is focused on Iran now which gives Netanyahu space to quietly go ahead with his genocidal agenda in Gaza and West Bank.
Netanyahu's demonic personal ambitions have plunged Palestine and rest of ME into worst tragedy of human history.
My heartfelt condolences to the government and the people of Iran on the martyrdom of the Supreme Leader, His Eminence Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
This is a significant moment in the history of Iran as such a loss carries deep emotional, political, and national implications. During the period of mourning, I stand in solidarity with the Iranian nation and extend my sympathies to all those who are grieving.
I reaffirm the importance of stability, peace, and mutual respect among nations, particularly in our region.
May Allah Almighty grant eternal peace and blessings to the departed soul and provide the courage, resilience, and steadfastness to the Iranian nation in facing this profound and irreparable loss.
