It’s about to get hot, New York.
Sometimes, too hot.
Don’t let extreme heat sneak up on you this summer. Go to nyc.gov/beattheheat for more information on how to stay cool during heat emergencies.

In January, Zohran Mamdani took action against bankrupt landlord Pinnacle, which was responsible for over 5,000 housing violations.
Thanks to his intervention, Pinnacle's new owners have forgiven millions in tenants' back rent.
This is what governing for the people looks like.

Pay close attention. Embedded in this insane war bill is the Save America act. Trump wants billions for his military industrial cronies while stealing the election at the same time.

New US strikes on Iran.
Reportedly Iran has already started firing back, too.
If this turns into all-out war again, I fear that we’re going to find out that Iran is better prepared this time. I hope I’m wrong.
