MTA going up to $3 because the city keeps raising the NYPD budget every year, when they could be adding more infrastructure to MTA.

It could be the best train systems in the world if that was where our money went.

Every time the NYPD goes on strike, crime in the city actually goes down.

Had a very depressing convo about Bukele with a man from Ecuador, which is currently being terrorized by cartels. He hoped for a Bukele for Ecuador and said: you can have rights or you can have safety. I said there’s no safety without rights. He disagreed. He’s in NYPD.

Cop cities being built didn't ruffle nearly enough feathers. The IDF training our city law enforcement did not ruffle nearly enough feathers. NYPD having bases in other countries did not ruffle nearly enough feathers. The writing stays on the wall.

That congratulatory phone call Mamdani took from Obama after his primary win resulted in Mamdani deleting (I've heard) what might've been the most accurate and inspiring post by a politician ever.

As predicted, conforming nicely to party mandate. They all do.

Every year the NYPD shows off their skills of standing around, threatening Black people who are celebrating and escalating

Do we need a helicopter hovering just above four story apartments?
Do we really already need noise complaints? It’s 9:30. Leave people to their celebration

Three cops slammed an 18-year-old to the ground, pulled his hair, and knelt on his head for riding a Citi Bike "in a reckless manner," in Alphabet City yesterday.

NYPD claimed the rider ran a red light, but CCTV footage doesn't show him doing that. nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/08/29/s...

#DefundTheNYPD "Off-leash hours in Central Park are from 6:00 am–9:00 am and 9:00 pm–1:00 am."
Two NYPD cars rolled up in Central Park at 9:01am, with their lights on, to yell about dogs being off leash.

Good work, boys. Keeping the city safe. Do get fucked while you’re here.

In one June 2020 post on X, Mamdani wrote: “We don’t need an investigation to know that the NYPD is racist, anti-queer & a major threat to public safety. What we need is to #DefundTheNYPD.”

He says he's changed his position. Yes, candidates can change. They can also be politically expedient.

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch did not inform her counterpart at the Department of Transportation that police would begin issuing criminal summonses to cyclists for a wide range of low-level traffic infractions — a willful lack of communication that watchdogs called "concerning."

The city has yet again shown its inability to care for the people it detains.

Holding New Yorkers in custody for petty crimes of poverty, without sufficient regard for their well-being, isn’t public safety.

We mourn those who lost their lives and fight to prevent future tragedy.
2 men die in NYPD custody after arrests for unlicensed pedicab and shoplifting food, officials say
The deaths come as Commissioner Jessica Tisch ramps up low-level crime arrests despite criticism that they criminalize poverty.

How fast, distracted, and reckless was this NYPD officer driving? How do you just “flip” your van? A job perk of being a cop is zero accountability for reckless and dangerous driving. And we are paying for the damages, the first responder cleanup, and the time off.

5 people have lost their lives in NYPD custody this year, 12 last year. Most were arrested for low-level offenses.

The systemic failures harming people in custody go beyond the shores of Rikers, and these deaths need to be investigated with the same mandate as on the island.
With 5 deaths in NYPD custody this year, public defenders ask who's policing the police?
The Legal Aid Society says an independent agency should automatically investigate any death in NYPD custody — because none do now.

Rare prosecutor growth of spine, admitting NYPD lied that the protestor against the genocide in Gaza was the aggressor in the situation as he was being pulled by Egyptian government officials into the embassy where they beat him with a chain & choked him with his own keffiyeh, to arrest him for it
Assault charges dismissed against man who said he was beaten inside Egyptian Mission building in NYC
Prosecutors said the evidence didn't support the police department’s contention that Yasin El Sammak was the aggressor.
