The video of this incident is just as bad as it sounds. The priest is standing there, not doing anything remotely illegal, and without warning a masked DHS agent on the roof shoots him in the top of his head with a pepper ball.

hey @jalenbrunson1 you have until May 27 to get your petitions in to run independently in the November general election thecity.nyc/2025/01/14/2025-…

Cuomo on the Ballot? Adams as a Republican? Candidates Have Limited Options and Little Time

Jumping into the Democratic primary, running as an independent, switching parties or going with a third party all have their own requirements.

It’s not tough to give credit where it’s due. But at least two NYC TV stations cribbed @THECITYNY story on the drop in honking complaints after congestion pricing pricing— w/ zero mention of our reporting. Give a nod, it’s the right thing to do. thecity.nyc/2025/03/11/traff…

Honking Complaints Plunge 69% Inside Congestion Pricing Zone

In the first two months of the Manhattan vehicle tolls that Trump wants to nix, gripes over blasting horns sunk when compared to 2024.

Still no answer to when we can actually ask the mayor crucial questions in a weekly briefing. (@Fabien_Levy is referring to the shortened workweek @THECITYNY reporters had due to budget issues. We were back to 5 days Jan 1; keep us going thecity.nyc/ways-to-give/)
