“There’s no middle ground,” told reporters. “There is only one way that we can help working families at this moment," adding that Hochul’s proposal is only $13 a week. “The state should not be in the business of codifying poverty wages.”

Eww. Look who's presiding over the vote to remove from the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Our local #NY11 seditionist, . Targeting a Muslim woman when you represent one of the largest Muslim communities in the US? Genius move, Nicole. #DefeatMalliotakis

Charging or jailing the killers is not enough. Justice is changing the conditions so no-one dies during a traffic stop.
Policing is fundamentally broken. Trading white officers for Black ones was never a solution.
If we're serious about public safety, we'll fund our communities

Trying to appoint pro-prosecutor judges and standing in support of qualified immunity and outrageous police budgets is the opposite of this message. Who is the target audience of this tweet? People with memories shorter than 1 week?
Quote Tweet
My heart breaks for the Nichols family & Memphis community. I'm outraged to see yet another life taken by police brutality in this country.
This system is deeply in need of repair & I stand in solidarity with those demanding better as we work to build a more just nation for all.

all of the reforms failed at the same damn time - black cops, body cameras, multiple cops on the scene, tasers instead of guns- so how is more reform the answer?
#Blacker cops? Even non-deadlier non deadly weapons? ten cops instead of five? HD body cameras? harder convictions?

we’ve spent the last two and a half years debating how defund is unpopular and a flawed slogan or whatever but as it turns out none of the pitiful reforms liberals have proposed and implemented have done a thing. defunding the police is still the only policy to deliver results

🗣️We’re gathered at City Hall to protest the Mayor Eric Adams’ austerity budget and exclusion of immigrants and asylum seekers from the State of the City. Mayor Adams has effectively erased immigrants from his vision for NYC, which is immoral and WRONG!

Tyre Nichols was a photographer. A skateboarder. A father. A son. He was beaten to death by 5 Memphis officers on 1/7, just 100 yds from his mother's house. The cruelty, inhumanity, and brutality of those officers is senseless. My heart is heavy for his loved ones & this country.

Between Israel's occupation and destruction of Palestine's holiest sites, paving over cemeteries, attacks on funerals and its recent invasion of Al Aqsa mosque only to ridicule Muslims and today's killing of Israelis heading to shabbos services, we should never be afraid to pray

As you may know, on 5/29/2020, I was pepper-sprayed & arrested while attending a protest at the Barclays Center.
I am currently suing the NYPD in federal court around this event, but concurrently, a CCRB complaint was filed (not by me) and the process just concluded.

We are sickened by this latest act of horrific police violence. Our hearts go out to Tyre Nichols’ family and the entire Memphis community.
Beyond just holding the officers accountable, we must replace the systems that allow such acts of violence to happen over and over again.

Palestinians may be banned from flying their flag under an apartheid government, but we can still proudly do it at my office. I’m proud to be a Palestinian American and I want the Palestinian people to know that not all Americans support apartheid. No one can erase our existence.

Makes sense to me. Gonna need all those cops to provide security theater for the city when petty crime rates inevitably increase due the cuts to schools, libraries, healthcare, youth services, public colleges, housing, sanitation, and other social programs from the budget. Duh.
Quote Tweet
Eric Adams is proposing a budget for NYC that slashes over $1 billion dollars. Those cuts would come from schools, libraries, healthcare, youth services, public colleges, housing, sanitation, and more.
Meanwhile, the $11 billion NYPD budget would go untouched.

"Bad cops should have immunity from repercussions of their actions! And we must hold them accountable for their actions too!"
-Kathy Hochul, Qualified Immunity Understander.

Speaking to reporters about qualified immunity “I’m going to say this: I don’t support the repeal of that,” Hochul said, adding she still wants to see bad actors face appropriate consequences @GovKathyHochul obviously doesn’t know a thing about QI cityandstateny.com/policy/2023/01

Yesterday over 150 NYCHA tenants from across Coney Island in Brooklyn came together for a meeting on the truth about the privatization of NYCHA and why tenants have to fight back against this attack by the govt, big banks & developers which leads to gentrification & displacement.

People who think that the recent Chief Judge nomination process has harmed our civic institutions, instead of strengthened them, don’t appreciate —or don’t want to admit—how disempowering the old status quo has been for regular New Yorkers.

From the lede: Hochul is the leader of the party, and it's going to be rocky for her!
Instead of: why did Hochul nominate a judge so out-of-step with her party and its base?

This piece on Hochul and the chief judge appointment reads like a crime reporting article. Only taking quotes from the people with the most power, ascribing nefarious intent to anyone not falling in line, and failing entirely to get any other perspective. Typical shit.
Quote Tweet
I am not trying to bash the @nytimes or @luisferre @jessemckinley who I respect a lot and are great, hard-working journalists.
HOWEVER... these articles continue to be written from essentially the first-person perspective of the Governor.

WOW how did I not know about this? There's a team at JSTOR with formerly incarcerated leadership that combs through historical prison newspapers and writes interesting stories about them. You can read them all here. I love this so much.
