The lives of the Israeli hostages and lives of Palestinians in Gaza are and have always been linked. This is why we have been calling for a hostage deal and ceasefire from the start.

Netanyahu will not agree to a ceasefire deal unless he is forced to. There will be no ceasefire, there will be no hostage deal, until the U.S. refuses to send more bombs. Everyone desperate for this to end must demand an arms embargo now: #NotAnotherBomb.

The crisis at Rikers remains dire. Under Mayor Eric Adams, the lack of transparency has gotten so bad that the New York City Council has to propose laws requiring the DOC to publicly report the deaths and serious injuries of incarcerated people at Rikers. #ShutRikers nydailynews.com/2024/09/04/cou…

Wild, even if not surprising. NYPD under Eric Adams has reverted to Giuliani & Bloomberg-era lawlessness & skyrocketing stop-and-frisks. They don't care what courts say as long as mayor lets them get away with abuse, brutality & *literal* murder (eg Win Rozario).

A timely reminder that the *last* time Deputy Mayor Phil Banks III was tangled up in a federal criminal investigation, the court evidence included this really spectacular photo album of his trip to Israel paid for by people later convicted of bribery. hellgatenyc.com/evidentiary-ph…

Appears to be the first time a federal investigation has raided a Police Commissioner since at least WWII. Last time I can find a PC directly tied up in a criminal probe was the bribery/bookie scandal sank Bill O'Dwyer's mayorality and his commissioner, Bill O'Brien.

“For some of the schools, migrants coming here has been a godsend because we’ve lost many kids. Some schools were threatened with whether we’re going to be able to keep the doors open.” To ensure our schools stay open, we must repeal the 60-day rule. nytimes.com/2024/09/05/nyr…

DCPI is NYPD's press/PR dept (aka propaganda shop) - they have a ridiculously high budget & at least *86* staff... Sheppard's the head. This is how a top cop talks to a reporter. Imagine how emboldened cops in NYC are when they yell at, humiliate & brutalize everyday NYers.

Bic pic on today's FBI raids on Eric Adams officials: All are current/former NYPD or personally linked to current/former NYPD... - Commish Caban + 3 unnamed NYPD - Former NYPD (& still involved in dept): Dep Mayor Phil Banks, Tim Pearson - Others are family/linked to Phil Banks

Good reminder of why Eric Adams creating Dep Mayor position for Banks to oversee NYPD never should've happened. Message was corruption is fine & Blue protects Blue. Pearson, Maddrey, Molina scandals & now Caban + others is pattern of dangerous cop corruption enabled by cop mayor

It’s taken almost five years for the NYPD to stop obstructing the NYC CCRB from prosecuting Lt. Rivera for killing #AllanFeliz. Now, Mayor Eric Adams & Edward A. Caban must listen to the Feliz Family and their supporters and #FireJonathanRiver buff.ly/4cT7Xj8

This Eric Adams NYPD corruption scandal keeps growing. FBI actions on NYPD Commish, Dep Mayor who oversees NYPD, other cops, former cops, & fam of cops. Side note: James McCarthy is known for brutality against protesters & pepper-sprayed himself at a protest earlier this year.

The mayor insists that he regularly reminds his appointees to “follow the law.” It never seems to occur to Hizzoner that it might be better to hire aides who don’t need a daily reminder not to commit crimes. My take in ⁦New York Magazine⁩ nymag.com/intelligencer/…

"Increasingly fascist press office of the NYPD... do not consider themselves taxpayer-funded servants of the people of Gotham, they are thin-skinned propagandists who spend their days lashing out at reporters on X." Uhm, this is NY Post ed board. nypost.com/2024/09/06/opi…

‘Fuck you Adams. No cop city in Queens. This means war.’ Massive banners dropped sometime recently declaring war against the mayor following plans announced in May to launch a ‘cop city’ training facility in College Point, Queens (More on that: citylimits.org/2024/07/09/opi…)

"The problem isn’t the commissioner but the mayor who picked him & the rest of these dubious characters in the first place. The fish stinks from the head." Calls for Caban's resignation are fine, but Eric Adams isn't fit to be mayor.
