NEW, from me in @J_Insider: a longtime Rahm Emanuel operative has launched a new PAC aimed at fusing the political operations of two men Zohran Mamdani beat last year—Andrew Cuomo and Scott Stringer—to battle state-level candidates aligned with the mayor


California's priciest bridge is in SoCal and costs $114M - but it's not for cars trib.al/CO69Lsq

If living in NYC and getting coffee from a bodega (which very often is not that good) is your whole personality, things are not going well.



In private, @ZohranKMamdani has shown himself to be “a pragmatic and cunning politician at the height of his powers and unafraid to use them — even if it means delivering a sharp elbow to old friends and compromising his ideological purity as a democratic socialist.” Via @npfandos and @SallyGold nytimes.com/2026/03/16/nyr…

Oh wow @nytimes: this was almost as interesting as when @Gothamist's @BKriegstein did the same story 10 days ago!





extremely disappointing to see Jack go full NIMBY here. this project takes dilapidated public housing and fixes the scars of urban renewal by turning it into a mixed income complex with *more* affordable housing AND a guaranteed brand new home for every current NYCHA tenant

Wonderful to join @NYUDems last night! I hear the priorities of NY-10's youngest voters loud and clear: Affordability in our neighborhoods. ICE off our streets. No more forever wars funded by our taxpayer dollars. This is the agenda I’ll be proud to champion in Congress.

Meet the NYPD officers who say if Zohran Mamdani wins, they're out. Many told me they always thought they'd do 25, 30 years on the force. But not anymore. "It's not worth it," an officer with 20 years on the job told me. thefp.com/p/nypd-cops-i-…

It seems relevant to me whether Mamdani’s wife endorses rape, murder, the taking of hostages…

My partner and I each have to commute from Williamsburg to the upper east side for blue-collar work every day. How can we be expected to get to work without any parking?

New York Democrats would rather make residents lives miserable instead of cutting benefits to illegal aliens

The comments marked yet another instance of the mayor declining to criticize his hand-picked agency heads when they contradict his campaign agenda. nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/03/06/mam…
