In naming our comedy show @andersleehere wasn’t wrong he was just right too early.

I was at @BrooklynPaper when Rob Ford's crack-smoking vid dropped, and then-Borough President Eric Adams gave us an interview where he said he wanted Ford to meet with the youth of Brooklyn, to serve as a "symbol" of recovery from crisis. And he dispensed this unforgettable quote
Canada agglomerated its major cities in the 1990s and 2000s, officially incorporating suburbs and exurbs into the urban centers. The result was the rise of Rob and Doug Ford in Toronto.

If we create and tolerate a situation where it is dangerous to ride your bike, then only reckless people will ride their bikes, creating an impression that bike-riders are all reckless assholes. If we build a bike-friendly city, with protected and safe lanes, it’s different!
The uncomfortable truth is that a lot of bike-riders (never gonna say “cyclists” sry) are stupid, reckless and annoying but the best way to mitigate that is by setting clearer and more reasonable expectations.

Instead of bringing the CURB Act to a hearing, Council Member Oswald Feliz is shooting videos with MAGA Council Member Inna Vernikov. ICYMI: Inna was arrested for bringing a gun to a college campus to intimidate students protesting for a Free Palestine. She also called Mayor Mamdani a ‘terrorist lover’ for simply being Muslim. @OswaldFeliz whose side are you on?

Is Mayor Mamdani at a crossroads between his progressive vision and a conservative police force? In an era where retaining Commissioner Tisch has frustrated his base, a deep look at history suggests a way forward. Anders J. Lee (@andersleehere) examines the legacy of reformer Charles Gain and the appointment of Sheriff Edwin Raymond to argue that true change is still possible. Could this be the moment to challenge the NYPD's power? READ: geesemag.com/articles/zohran…

Great article on who Zohran could replace Tisch with and the history of left leaning mayors trying to improve the police.
Gonna have to be that one guy who keeps plugging the same thing until it's finally time for replace Tisch. There is exactly one NY law enforcement executive who has NYPD rank and file experience and a left police reform vision and that is Edwin Raymond. geesemag.com/articles/zohran…

“Les gens ont les intentions les plus incroyables à mon égard, il y en a même un qui veut me pisser dessus. Je ne vais pas lui demander de s’excuser, ça m’a l’air au-delà de ses moyens, mais au moins, je lui demande, engagez-vous à ne pas le faire !”

Interesting element of the NYC Police/ICE cooperation issue is that the NYPD doesn’t really have a formal process for determining if the badges of federal agents are real or not and have mistakenly arrested a number of Black ICE officers for impersonation.

In an attempt to distance themselves from the excesses of “woke 1” many people here abandoned useful terms like “rape culture” that accurately described real phenomena. After Elon bought Twitter some used the opportunity to indulge their grievances over the woke era by following an influx of pro-rape accounts and social groups. Rape culture never went away but too many stopped caring for social convenience.

“Voting for melenchon is like voting for Europe to commit suicide”
melenchon is worse than le pen on ukraine, and he would nuke the entire EU economy by essentially defaulting on france’s debt at a time when russia’s potentially looking to invade. electing melenchon is tantamount to continental suicide, so yeah, i would choose the lesser evil
