Robert Caro: In my book I documented Robert Moses as a cautionary tale Zohran Mamdani: At long last, I have become Robert Moses from classic biography Don’t Become Robert Moses

Watching this feels like a bunch of Slowpoke memes. Bro, how many news cycles behind are you?

Two months ago, we revived the long-delayed Tremont Avenue busway. This week, it’s up and running. That means 39,000 daily riders on the Bx36 are getting faster, safer, more reliable commutes. www.amny.com/news/bronx-f...

This November, you’ll see five questions on your ballot about making government work faster for New Yorkers. Make sure you’re registered to vote by Oct. 24 and learn what’s on the ballot at nyc.gov/fast.

At this point I'm convinced that you can put a head of lettuce on the Democratic ticket and it will win.

“Boss, love the work, big fan, but I need this Strait of Hormuz thing wrapped by Friday."

RESULT: David Morales, a socialist challenger, has ousted the mayor of Providence David Smiley. Add Providence to NYC, DC, and Ann Arbor as socialist wins in mayoral elections.

It took a lot of blood, sweat and tears but we're finally launching our very first Open Street on Austin Street! @mayor.nyc.gov make our day and drop by unannounced!

The first Austin Street Open Street day is this Sunday, August 30! Come enjoy a better, safer #AustinStreet!

BREAKING: The union of Starbucks workers is officially calling for a boycott of the chain. @sbworkersunited.org has over 12,000 unionized baristas, and they're calling on customers to stop visiting Starbucks until they get a fair union contract.

“Robert Moses’ ideas were bad, but we should definitely perpetuate them” great

This is unforgivable.

The City Council finally got a chance to air their grievances about the Mamdani administration's rollout of the state-level pied-à-terre tax, and the result was as languid as the weather outside. hellgatenyc.com/pied-a-tumbl...

Perfect summation of the antiwoke worldview: trying to destroy democracy is bad, but not nearly as bad as sitting through an HR training

Palantir paid no U.S. federal income tax last year despite recording substantial profits. truthout.org/articles/pal...

Zohran Mamdani is backing a bill to hold Amazon accountable for exploiting delivery drivers. Now Amazon is launching a $5M lobbying blitz — led by Chuck Schumer's daughter — to crush it. Instead of spending millions on lobbying, Amazon should pay and treat its drivers fairly.

This is not a "blow". It is a nothing-burger. This will get appealed and we'll all forget this was something that even happened.

I often think that "this oil crisis will be the one that will wake us up to investing in public transit." But I feel we're more likely to get "you can now run a red light in any direction after stopping".

The Trump administration has agreed to roughly $4 billion in settlements this year to cancel planned offshore wind projects, including a $1.22 billion deal with German utility RWE announced Thursday, with billions more in projects still at risk

NEW: New York City Council member Christopher Marte allegedly directed at least one government staffer to raise money for his campaign and a super PAC that has supported him politically, according to a whistleblower complaint that raises legal concerns. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

A third detainee died after being held at Delaney Hall, according to Rep. Rob Menendez (D-NJ). www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/08/04/t...

We probably need to ban cars until we figure out why this keeps happening.

I have negative faith that this will lead to anything good. They're probably just gonna pass more unfunded laws. As an institution, the council is completely broken.

ANOTHER death in ICE custody, this time at the controversial Delaney Hall facility. This makes 54 deaths since Trump took office; 1 every 8 days in 2026. His mother says he was denied adequate medical care for chronic conditions, a common accusation ICE has strenuously denied.

I love how when one of these things "breaks containment", the others all of a sudden start doing the same thing. Have any of the Chinese ones ever "broken containment"?

This is why I can never truly hate the @nypost.com . This goes so hard.

I definitely think there's something wrong with how often we're doing charter revisions for what should be legislation changes. But at the same time, the fact that ppl keep voting to remove powers from the council is proof that the council broken as a democratic institution.

One thing I notice though: every story I read about bike lanes tends to be illustrated with a photo of a white person in neon cycling gear and a helmet when a lot of the folks it actually helps are day laborers on cheap bikes and working folks on share bikes

LATEST: Oil surges to $100 a barrel after Iran-backed Houthi rebels attack tankers in the Red Sea, threatening an energy bottleneck in another key waterway.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

I wonder how much of this is because Americans can now buy byds from China via Canada 🤔

I'm currently reading The Jakarta Method. Given what I've read so far, and what's going on in DC with this new NSPM-7, it's pretty clear to me now that Socialism is when Democracy.

Well, I guess that's happening. Funny cuz it was blocked by the council last year.

How can you possibly believe this and at the same time be the party's leader in the Senate? Idk how the writing could be clearer.
