No one in the world understands me except for @MichaelLangeNYC
NEW: NY12 – the wealthiest, most educated district in America – is ready to choose its next congressman.
Nine candidates. One seat.
West Side vs. East Side.
A Kennedy heir, a Never-Trumper, and two Albany lawmakers walk into a forum...

Can’t imagine Adams’s name recognition is sky-high in Peekskill but she’s bringing a lot of energy … as she reads out Cait’s campaign website verbatim:
“Cait’s campaign platform says that her top issues include…”

Tish says she’s totally neutral on Trump.
No political opinions, no personal feelings, just calling balls and strikes and dispassionately applying the law.

The most interesting part of Bad Blood is the last third, when Carreyrou abandons his "objective stenographer" perspective and inserts himself directly into the story as one of the main protagonists.
In a way, he's just as subjective and compromised as Fielder and AS.
Did Elizabeth Holmes coming after me and my sources with everything she had and threatening to sue us out of existence bias me? Yes.

Komatireddy clearly wants to return to pre-2019, when prosecutors had virtually unlimited ability to detain accused people pretrial on Rikers for months or even years.
She sees the entire prosecutorial reform movement (bail and discovery reform, more diversion) as a mistake.

It will be interesting to see whether voters agree with her!
At the time, there were some pretty compelling and popular reasons motivating the 2019 reforms.

This is obviously wrong.
With no NYPD crowd-clearing, ICE would not have looked out at the crowd and thought “ah well, guess we’re trapped here.” They would have cleared the crowd themselves.

But the protester, at least, chooses to protest. The Black teenager does not choose to be Black.
My latest on how NYC-DSA deprioritized the criminal legal reform movement, and why none of their other justifications hold up.

Excellent point from @MichaelLangeNYC, there are real downsides to applying “pressure” when you have a losing hand.

Eli and I have different politics, but this is a needed and damning indictment of how the Left dropped the ball on policing in NYC.

Really incredible line of questioning from @TimmyFacciola_ , which captures Lawler's problem in a nutshell.
New York has a competitive congressional race. One of the candidates spoke to us at the New York Editorial Board — see the transcript of our conversation, just posted. It’s not too Cait for the other to say yes to our invitation! nyeditorialboard.substack.co…
