11 years ago I saw Andrew Cuomo's corruption up close. He hasn't changed, and that's why he's the wrong person to lead New York City. Let me take you back to when Cuomo weaponized an anti-corruption to protect his friends & investigate his enemies: https://t.co/nZThFJ61Zq

Massive protests against the Russian-backed government of Hungary, with Peter Magyar absolutely destroying Orban in the polls. If Orban allows a free election, it's over for Putin's puppet.

Cuomo, talking to conservative radio host Sid Rosenberg this morning: "God forbid, another 9/11—can you imagine Mamdani in the seat?" Cuomo asks. "He'd be cheering," Rosenberg says. Cuomo paused and chuckled before saying: "That's another problem."

Incredible how Eric Adams hasn’t been mentioned, but HE’S failed to follow the law and close Rikers. @ZohranKMamdani is right legally, morally, fiscally. It’s time for Rikers to go

100% of ex-politicians who go to prison and get out say they want to work on prison reform. Maybe they should be required to spend time inside while still making laws. https://t.co/t5hTsmJGSR

Mr. Santos, the disgraced congressman from Long Island, lashed out at the warden of the prison where he had been held and suggested he was now free to get Botox.

Democrats need to understand that at a time when the DOJ is increasingly a tool for partisan and ideological politics, they cannot vote to give it more power. That’s why they must oppose the coming Trump crime bill.
Erez Reuveni, a former DOJ lawyer, says a superior ordered him to argue against Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s return by telling a judge he was an MS-13 gang member and terrorist. “That is not factually correct. It is not legally correct. That is-- that is a lie, and I cannot sign my

When we were getting out of the darkest days of the pandemic, I would play “New York Groove” on any jukebox I could find it, through any bartender who’d indulge it. RIP to the great Ace Frehly

Watch for provisions like this in the coming Trump “crime bill” Democrats need to be unified in rejecting legislation that will clearly be weaponized against them
Cruz: Follow the money. Cut off the money. You look at this No Kings rally—there’s considerable evidence that George Soros and his network is behind funding these rallies which may well turn into riots. I've introduced legislation that would allow DOJ to use RICO to prosecute

In New Jersey a bill has been introduced to make sure data centers pay for electricity they use. This power surcharge would go toward modernizing the state’s electric grid.

This is another example of how the Trump administration is utterly unserious about public safety. Remember how they slashed programs for people struggling with addiction and mental health when they roll out their new Crime Bill.
Absolute savage damage done by RIFs this weekend to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, where staffing levels appear to be near 1/3 where they were at the beginning of the year.

Zohran's critics on policing miss that police officers have been quitting in record numbers during *this mayoral administration* The status quo is failing. He's the only candidate serious about officer working conditions.
Interesting dynamic in NYC where Zohran Mamdani is blunting opposition from patrol officers by taking their poor job conditions seriously. https://t.co/dVAf3FxGC7

TEXAS’ TOTAL CRIME RATE IS 20.5% HIGHER THAN NEW YORK’S. IN CASE YOU’RE CONFUSED, THAT MEANS IT’S WORSE.
