@CMShahanaHanif OMG

See below for my statement regarding violence in Boro Park last night:

@rebeccaugust @sethmpk Hardly. Show the actual amounts!

@sethmpk @ShahanaFromBK Great thread! Thank you for the investigative reporting.

At this historically shady moment in NYC politics, something EXTRA shady is happening in Brooklyn: A City Council candidate is running against @ShahanaFromBK relying on $$$ from multiple GOP megadonors… while also claiming to be “progressive” 🤔 cityandstateny.com/politics/2024/…

Our family had a great dinner at Miriam last night - a restaurant in Park Slope that was recently vandalized because its owner is Israeli. The despicable graffiti is part of a disturbing spike in antisemitic incidents in New York and beyond. If you’re able, show your support for the Miriam team by stopping in. Sit down for a meal - and stand up against hatred.

Our CM @ShahanaFromBK sends us a mailer stating that she’s “fighting the Trump agenda”. She literally spent 10 months supporting the opt out/uncommitted movement in MI & PA which helped get Trump elected. Stop gaslighting us. #FakeDem

Gov. Hochul to relaunch congestion pricing with $9 base toll, sources say gothamist.com/news/hochul-to… via @gothamist

@ShahanaFromBK Councilmember, To represent us you should know: blaming unidentified powerful scheming people is an all-too-familiar antisemitic trope.

Conservative billionaires are pouring millions into defeating Prop 1—just like they’re trying to take me out of office. I’m standing with my Brooklyn colleagues and our communities to fight back and pass Prop 1. Let’s show them that people power wins over big money!

@joshuarolson @daniela127 Alternate alternate take: calling people names is not always the best take in an argument.

My spicy take is that the people and institutions who made Oct 7th about Palestinian suffering are engaging in modern day Holocaust denial.

@CMShahanaHanif @NYCSanitation What kind of graffiti?

We have been notified by several constituents about a wave of graffiti that hit our community last night. We are in touch with @NYCSanitation about cleaning this up as soon as possible and strongly denounce the vandalism of property in our neighborhoods.

The new Frank Decolvenaere dog run — named for a beloved Bay Ridgeite who was hit by a car and killed while walking his dog in 2020 — transformed an unused stretch of asphalt into a welcoming greenspace for pups and people alike. brooklynpaper.com/bay-ridge-new-…

.@ShahanaFromBK You seriously misrep the “goal” of Congestion Pricing. As the name suggests, it is to dis-incentivize congestion in the downtown core. Rather than exemptions that undermine the goal, find ways to assist that support it (eg fewer auto trips with higher fares).
