NYC - as usual, if you see ICE - including at the airports… text a photo and details to the hotline. Save this number to your phone! Reporting these two goons being paid to stand around, live from JFK
if Zohran can make it to 6 clubs in one night I can probably try to make it to at least 1 and stay til at least midnight
Last week, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social said Cuomo’s jacket should show all his Trump billionaire donors like sponsor logos. So I built a website that does exactly that! votecuomo.com
Deeply ashamed of @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social for going on WNYC and suggesting he may be a "supporter of global jihad" and declining to answer whether she thinks he's a support of Hamas

I'm in touch with a source in Cuomo's camp. They're all screaming and turning back into rats. Not looking good so far

NEW: Gov. Hochul announces that the state is dedicating $50 million for legal assistance for immigrants like those who may be targeted by ICE when leaving the federal courthouse
A reporter from The City had overheard one agent say to another minutes before Lander’s arrest, “Do you want to arrest the Comptroller?”

The Working Families Party — which just days ago ranked Jessica Ramos as its No. 5 pick as part of an anti-Cuomo slate — calls her Cuomo endorsement "sad" and "desperate."
The party won't immediately say, tho, whether it's removing Ramos from its slate. www.nydailynews.com/2025/06/06/j...
Less than 48 hours after saying she wished New Yorkers cared about women getting harassed, State Senator Jessica Ramos is set to appear at a campaign event with Andrew Cuomo and announce she is endorsing him.
Incredible Eric Adams anecdote from @nymag.com's Zohran piece. nymag.com/intelligence...
I'm a 76% match with Zohran Mamdani on the Meet Your Mayor quiz! Find your own match, powered by @thecity.nyc and @gothamist.com: projects.thecity.nyc/meet-your-ma...

This is truly wild… looks like maybe the Secretary of Energy assigned a lucrative contract to his unqualified buddies from Colorado??
Useful new resource - The Impact Map, a visualization of how federal funding cuts affect communities. Love how it integrates different kinds of data, including personal testimonials submitted by fed workers as well as links to news articles, etc theimpactproject.org/the-impact-m...
Marine Le Pen banned from running for office for 5 years and gets 4 year prison sentence in embezzlement case. Love a country where politicians aren’t immune to basic accountability www.france24.com/en/live-news...
From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement.
Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”
In a total betrayal of their constituents and our democracy, 10 Democrats just voted with Senate Republicans to give Trump and Musk a blank check to continue their coup. @schumer.senate.gov led Democrats to this total surrender. We need strong leadership, not cowards who cave at any GOP pressure.
1. BREAKING
Cloture has been invoked on the continuing resolution, which means that a government shutdown will be avoided, as the final vote will only require a simple majority.
The vote was 62-38.
10 members of the Democratic caucus voted YES on invoking cloture.
List in post below.
JUST IN: The Senate voted to advance a spending bill to fund the government through Sept. 30, narrowly avoiding a government shutdown. The vote exposed a deep rift among Democrats.

Good morning and a hearty fuck you to @gavinnewsom.bsky.social for waking up, deciding to host Charlie Kirk on his podcast debut, and throwing trans people under the bus to chase clout
"Developing a device that could treat severe bleeding. It seems to have caught the committee’s attention for using the words “victims” — as in gunshot victims — and “trauma.” Creating biosensors to detect infectious diseases. The grant appears to have been tagged for the repeated use of “POC,” an acronym often used for “people of color” but in this context meaning “point of care” — that is, the place where people receive medical treatment — and “barrier,” referring to a part of the biosensor itself. Designing eye-tracking technology for diagnosing and treating concussions. It appears to have gotten flagged for referencing “traumatic” brain injuries and the “status,” meaning the condition, of patients."
ProPublica looked into science grants that Ted Cruz's team flagged as "radical" and "neo-Marxist" and, uh.
This would be good comedy if it didn't matter so much www.propublica.org/article/ted-...
