I recently said that a Bronx scene reminded me of the castle in Tres Riches Heures, stark towers and a surreal sky. Someone balked, until I explained. But the idea compels me to urge you to read Don DeLillo’s painterly short story, The Angel Esmeralda—the medieval in the Bronx.

All year, Zohran screamed about the “threat posed to New Yorkers” of Ackman and Cuomo being aligned with Trump. Then he gave the top position in his administration to al-Qaeda’s lawyer, and nobody said a word.

Monday #Compline Ant: "O Lord our God unwearied is your love for us"; Psalm 86 (Poor man's prayers in trouble); Reading: 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10; Gospel Canticle: Luke 2:29-32 🙏🛐

Rose hips under a stormy sky. #snow #Scotland

#Compline "Protect us, Lord, as we stay awake; watch over us as we sleep, that awake, we may keep watch with Christ, and asleep, rest in His peace. Amen." 🙏🛐

Seems pretty clear—affluent, Bryn Mawr-educated “socialist” Cea Weaver seems ready to strip blue-collar NYers of the right to own modest homes. She reminds me of sophomoric who would dish socialist politics at department wine-and-cheese parties with favorite professors!

It gets worse: Cea Weaver: - Says NYC should use public schools as “sites of resistance” - Calls on PTAs to act as part of “networks of defense” - Urges tenant associations to organize as “networks of defense” https://t.co/fvzGLFTRFV

You do realize a hearing isn’t policy, right? It’s what you announce when you don’t have one.

Zohran Mamdani’s father—a Columbia professor—believes: - The Allies and Nazis had the same goal - Lincoln inspired Hitler - White people are oppressors, America is evil - BLM is the resistance This is the worldview that shaped Zohran.

Does Mamdani’s new protocol for appointments require deletion of prior social media accounts? Cea Weaver appears to have deleted hers on January 1, 2026. @ceaweaver

I said it before: Mayor Zohran Mamdani does not have federal security clearance. When asked directly by a reporter, he initially danced around the question—then ultimately answered “NO,” confirming he does not have clearance. That means he was not briefed on Nicolás Maduro or any

Today, we head to court to defend our congressional district against Democrats’ latest attempt to gerrymander. They can’t win on merit, debate or policy so they want to connect Staten Island & Manhattan to steal this seat in November’s election & silence the only Republican voice

Let's go back to the good old days with the late, great Mario Lanza (Jan 1921 - Oct 1959) ❤️🎶 https://t.co/K03F0Jsawx

I spent a decade working in progressive politics. They all talk like this behind the scenes. Eventually, I came to the conclusion they were morally unfit to hold any power whatsoever.

The insanity is just beginning…

I believe in transparency. Why is Zohran Mamdani’s connection to Neville Roy Singham being ignored? NYT reports show Singham as a major CCP-linked funder behind groups like Code Pink. We need to know who is really influencing our mayor. Dirty and dangerous. @Maria4Dist6’s post

Goodnight from Joanie Wick, putting a porcelain bean into the Twelfth-tide Cake she’s baking for tomorrow’s feast of misrule. Goodnight from Trudy Hall, making the traditional Ephinany Eve offering to the Soot Sprite in the form of extra applewood logs. Goodnight from Hookland.

Let’s start by “collectivizing” her parent’s house.

🚨TERRIFYING: Zohran Mamdani has ended direct mayoral daily intelligence briefings to the NYPD commissioner, raising serious security concerns for NYC, the world's top txrrorist target. Jessica Tisch had been demoted and is in the same chain of command as garbage collection.

🧵James Madison had something to say about tyrants like this. Here are his words, words he risked his life to think and say. Let's read them so as not to allow the "idiot delusion of the exceptional Now that blocks clear thinking": "Government is instituted to protect property
