Nothing and no one should stand between New Yorkers and their right to vote — least of all the government.
 Early voting is happening now through November 1. Election Day is November 3. See you at the polls!

Congrats to Lula in Brazil! Fuck you, fascists!

There are concentration camps in the USA. These monsters must be defeated and prosecuted.

Trump’s DOJ sued California, threatened election officials with jail time, and staged arrests in the final days before the midterm elections. Legal experts say the lawsuit will go nowhere, but the goal was never to win in court. @readthebigpicture.bsky.social explains what the goal actually is.

Saturday is the last day you can register to vote. Go to vote.nyc to register and learn about what's on your ballot.

Elon is losing his mind. 🍿

They’re not alleging fraud or misconduct. They’re preemptively suing to block certification based on an outcome they haven’t accepted yet. It’s no longer a hypothetical talking point. The Justice Department is officially Trump’s election interference machine.

Grifting at every opportunity.

The GOP is capitalizing on their anger.

These NYCHA residents have fought to reopen their senior center for 25 years. Today, we're delivering — along with a renovated community center, child care center and modernized apartments for 5,000 residents.

Bless the little heart on this post if you’re grateful to Dr. Abdul for standing up to this Christian Nationalist troll.

Early voting is surging across the country and the numbers are looking good. Debates are being dominated. Fundraising records are being broken. And millions showed up at No Kings rallies this weekend to make their voices heard. Less than three weeks until Election Day. Let’s keep up the pace!

Calling this response shameful feels too kind. How does the sitting vice president not know about this? These are the people you serve. This is your administration’s war. It’s your job to know what it’s costing Americans, from the families burying their soldiers to everyone paying more at the pump.

Yes.

Navigating changes to Medicaid and SNAP shouldn't mean navigating a maze to get help. Today, we're launching HART, a new outreach team helping New Yorkers keep their health coverage, food benefits and get support on everything from housing assistance to eviction prevention.

Korean Community Services keeps our seniors healthy and cared for in the city they love. We worked with Council Member Linda Lee and NYC Council to secure $12 million in funding for programs serving aging New Yorkers — and this week we had the chance to serve a few free meals ourselves.

The federal government tried to turn our public servants into deportation agents and force New York City to carry out ICE’s cruel agenda. Today, a federal court rejected that effort and upheld our laws. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

This year alone, New Yorkers have reported more than 188,000 incidents of domestic violence. That's 780 incidents every day. Countless others go unreported. If you or someone you love needs help, call 1-800-621-HOPE or visit on.nyc.gov/hotlinechat.

Rules for thee, not for JD?

Congratulations to the NAACP New York State Conference on 90 years of organizing, mobilizing and fighting for a more just world.

The horse carriage industry is coming to an end in New York City. Our administration will make sure workers and owners are protected and the horses are safe.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Any nation that live streams executions is a shithole country.

Look outside. Do you see snow? No?  Well, you will soon. You might also see $30/hr more in your pocket if you become an emergency snow shoveler.  Registration begins Saturday, September 19th. Sign up by November 30th for access to paid orientation and expedited payment processing.

@elquijoteart.bsky.social This one is good.

Proud to announce that New York City has registered a record 4,200 New Yorkers in our doula care program.  Pregnancy and childbirth are life-changing moments. No one should be forced to navigate them alone.

Bush didn't hit 32 percent approval until he left office. Trump is already there, three months before the midterms. The last time we saw numbers like these, Democrats won both chambers of Congress. Let's make sure they do.

This is outrageous. A free press cannot function under constant threats and retaliation from the government. Reporters must be free to hold those in power accountable — without fear of retribution. The assault on the free press must end!

No new data centers until we have federal guardrails.

For over a year, Canada has worked intensively and in good faith with the United States to negotiate a new comprehensive trade deal. We have been pragmatic, patient, and persistent. Our goal has always been to get the best deal for Canadians, never a deal at any price or on any time frame.

By targeting Fauci, Senate Republicans are trying to transfer guilt from those who downplayed or misrepresented the pandemic, @davidfrum.bsky.social argues.

Affordability doesn't come from just decreasing costs, but increasing opportunity for working people. The city's Economic Development Corporation is at the heart of this work. Today, I proudly appointed Tony Shorris as President and CEO and Lina Khan as Chair of the EDC.

Aren’t these officially war crimes?

President Donald Trump released a trove of documents during a primetime address to the nation that allies had hyped as a smoking gun that would prove his long-debunked allegations of mass voter fraud. https://to.pbs.org/3T3zREQ

"I said it to Trump in the first administration, and I will say it again. The grand bargain of a democracy is that anyone can run for office and everyone accepts the outcome," says Sue Gordon. "The greatest threat to America is that we stop believing in ourselves." https://to.pbs.org/4wGHAXG

"They bought it because this is the publicly available information," says Gabe Sterling of the Georgia Secretary of State's office. "They can't change a vote. They can't change a tally. They can't take your vote away. None of that works." https://to.pbs.org/4prRIRG
