What’s the ETA for the patriotic tourists to visit the Supreme Court?

Daily reminder.

Kamala Harris was the right choice.

Mayor Mamdani salts steps alongside two NYC DOT crew members.

NYC has over 100 step streets — many in the hills of the Bronx — and NYC DOT works hard to keep them safe.

Grateful to the crew at the DOT Brush Avenue Yard for walking me through their salting operation as the first snow starts to fall. Public service in action.
