.Zohran Kwame Mamdani held a 5:40 am press conference in Astoria Park before polls opened, reflecting on his campaign and all of the NYers who are already up and out at work.

In Midtown, where one of Andrew Cuomo's staffers is holding a parking spot for him in front of the polling site he's soon expected to vote at. Cuomo is registered to vote a few blocks from here, but still driving over.

Janeese has to look at this result and think long and hard about next year's Mayors race. Just sayin

Great article from Colleen Grablick about tenants' rights to air conditioning. TLDR: if the landlord doesn't provide it, they don't have a right. Basically everything built in the last couple decades is going to come with AC. Building more gives people the option to move.

In 2019, I was an NYT reporter who had just finished contributing to the 1619 Project when Breitbart News published an article calling me as a racist and antisemite. The paper’s response was to investigate me and issue disciplinary action. Funny who they listen to!

Our eulogy for Anas al-Sharif: "We convinced ourselves that he would live forever, and imagined his voice announcing not only the last day of this war, but the day Gaza is liberated from siege and Palestine is free." newyorkwarcrimes.com/the-martyr-ana…

The Columbia heights residents chasing ICE out of the community and chanting is, whether you like it or not, a total cultural victory for the IN THIS HOUSE WE BELIEVE signs

Countering Cuomo's made up single mother in a shelter with support from an actual single mother from a shelter that was able to make it out due to a union job >>>>>

Incredible how no D.C. resident had ever been outside until now.
