So Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani Mamdani is using his official NYPD taxpayer funded vehicle to chauffeur around Darializa for Congress from one campaign stop the next. A clear violation of city ethics and rules. Will any reporter ask him about it? katie honan

These claims have been floating around for two days now, and somehow not a single outlet has felt the need to check them against the actual footage. Here is what happened. First, the NYPD was not shutting down a harmless snow day snowball fight. Officers responded after receiving calls about disorderly conduct around the park. Over the loudspeaker, they told people to enjoy themselves and remain inside the park. One officer can clearly be heard encouraging the kids to have fun. They stood back and monitored the situation. Then the snowballs started flying. Not just light powder tossed between friends, but hardened snow and chunks of ice aimed directly at officers. Second, yes, there were kids involved. There were also grown adults in the crowd. Some of them were not calming things down. They were egging it on, urging people to throw ice at uniformed officers. Third, these were not soft, playful snowballs. Many were large, compacted chunks of ice, some the size of a football. Ice like that can break bones and split skin. It did. Officers were hospitalized with facial lacerations. The footage is available for anyone who wants to watch it. When members of the press decline to describe what is plainly visible because it may hurt Mamdani politically, that stops being journalism. It becomes advocacy.

you want to save lives in NYC, start by funding organizations that advocate for people injured or killed by reckless bikers. I’ve been on Amsterdam Ave for five minutes. In that time, I saw three cyclists riding the wrong way and one blowing through a red light. Bike violence is real. And groups like Streetsblog New York City and Transportation Alternatives keep running cover for those who endanger pedestrians and drivers alike. Step one is accountability. Track the injuries and deaths caused by reckless cycling. Right now, that isn’t happening.

Every Orthodox Jew remembers the funerals we couldn’t attend, the loved ones who died alone—because Archive: Governor Andrew Cuomo said so. If you believe anyone in our community actually likes Andrew Cuomo, I’ve got beachfront property in Borough Park to sell you. They meet with him out of fear—fear of his spite, his ego, and his cruelty if he ever claws his way back to power.

I just found more video of the October 8 celebration led by Mamdani-endorsed congressional candidate Darializa for Congress. Speaker after speaker hailed Hamas for the killing, kidnapping, and rape of civilians in Israel. This was NOT A PROTEST. This was an all-out celebration.

The homeless encampments are back. Welcome to the new New York City, where people are left to sleep on frozen sidewalks in 10-degree weather while Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani’s inaction is rebranded as “progressivism” and “compassion.”

My friend, I recorded this video a few weeks ago. In just 20 minutes, I personally witnessed about 30 e-bike violations. It’s the Wild West on our city streets. You can deny reality all you want, but New Yorkers are dealing with it every single day and are fed up.

Darializa for Congress This is the rally that Darializa for Congress led on October 8 celebrating the slaughter of innocent civilians, men, women, and children. She never apologized for it, because she is a bigot and an antisemite.

.Speaker Julie Menin provides a clear, detailed explanation of the school safety bill, noting it would NOT restrict peaceful protest, contrary to the Mayor’s rationale for vetoing it.

On his way to Gracie Mansion, Mayor Eric Adams spotted a family stuck in the road trying to push their car out of traffic. The Mayor and his NYPD detail jumped in to help, and Harlem came alive the way only Harlem can. Watch and enjoy.

Last time you were in charge, you drew red zones around Orthodox neighborhoods, shut our synagogues, and sent in government enforcers. We haven’t forgotten the thousands—young and old—left to suffer alone in New York hospitals, banned from a single visitor because you decided no patient deserved a hand to hold. Some hospitals still follow that cruelty today to some measure. Let’s be real: no Orthodox leader wants you back. They take your meetings out of fear—because they remember how petty, vengeful, and punishing you were as Governor. And they know exactly what you’d do if, God forbid, you ever got power again.
