The Gotham Book Prize was created by @HowieWolf and @ptknitwear founder Bradley Tusk to celebrate the year's best books about New York City. This year's 11 finalists show that you can find great stories everywhere in this city — from our history and industry, to our arts and culture, to our nightlife and even our wildlife. mikebloom.bg/4a34nEG

If you're only concerned about antisemitism on the "other side" of the political aisle, then you're not fighting it you're weaponizing it. Be disturbed by Josh Shapiro's vetting by Harris team, but don't forget this. Carlson in White House 2x in 2 weeks?? jewishinsider.com/2026/01/tucker…

Let Powell and the Fed do their jobs. mikebloom.bg/45SmoTC

Congestion pricing is working. A year of data shows traffic is down in the city and surrounding areas, streets are safer, and transit ridership and visits to the business district are up. A big win for New Yorkers. nyti.ms/4spioUt

Thank you, San Francisco.

Two stunning political moments in the past 24 hours: Gov. Cox's eloquent appearance just now...and Bernie Sanders's extraordinary statement yesterday. x.com/SenSanders/sta…

A few months ago Bradley Tusk told me he was going to do what he could to prevent underage CitiBike use — and in typical fashion he went to work and built support for change that will save lives. Kudos to all involved. amny.com/nyc-transit/ag…

I have found much to admire in the quality of the campaign @ZohranKMamdani has run, but if he doesn’t understand that many Jews hear violence in calls to globalize the intifada he is missing something very important about our city.

The award said Clutch POY. Last night? @jalenbrunson1 underlined it.

What appointing RFK Jr. to President-Elect Trump’s administration would mean for America’s health and Trump’s own political standing and legacy: bloombg.org/3O4Xsz2

I voted for @KamalaHarris without hesitation. When it comes to policy and personal integrity, the contrast could not be clearer, and I hope undecided voters with a history of supporting candidates in both parties join me. bloombg.org/4ecs0cX

BREAKING: Tim Walz just spoke at Aliquippa High School’s Football Practice. That Walz can walk into a football practice and communicate like this makes him one of the strongest communicators in the Democratic party. Retweet so all Americans see this.

Paris dreamed big for the Olympics. I wrote about what it would mean for New York to do the same — even without the Games — in today’s @NYDailyNews. nydailynews.com/2024/08/18/new…

Inspired by a trip to the Olympics, @MicahLasher has returned from Paris with some big ideas to make NYC better. nydailynews.com/2024/08/18/new…

The ⁦@nytimes⁩ has decided to throw up its hands and let New York’s leaders emerge based on the half-truths promoted by politicians rather than the vast trove of reliable information gathered by the paper of record. What a colossal blunder. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

Sports is the universal language - and if I’m talking football with someone it doesn’t matter if they are a Republican or a Democrat. And once we are in a conversation who knows what other common ground we can find. We just have to begin the conversation. nytimes.com/2024/08/06/opi…

@TomBevanRCP In 2016 Walz ran 12 points ahead of HRC in a congressional district that Trump won by 15 points. This is a guy who knows how to run and win in tough districts.

The pandemic both revealed and exacerbated the inequities in American health and medicine. This historic gift will begin to address this crisis. washingtonpost.com/education/2024…

Phenomenal piece.
