True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing. Also true: @andrewcuomo presided over the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stab housing. And killed NY’s program helping people move out of shelter. Moral clarity: Andrew, time to move out. 🧵 x.com/andrewcuomo/st…

Somewhere last night in New York City, a single mother and her children slept at a homeless shelter because you, assemblyman @ZohranKMamdani are occupying her rent controlled apartment. You grew up rich and married an even wealthier woman. You’ve had weddings on 3 continents.

Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it. (Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.)

ONE YEAR ‼️ BxD delegates at the @alaa2325 sectoral bargaining convention. A one year contract is a key demand in our ongoing contract negotiations, so we’ll align with our ALAA siblings whose contracts expire in 2025 and our salaries don’t fall behind. Solidarity forever ❤️‍🔥✊

A lot of people who would rightly lose their minds if Trump sent the National Guard into the New York subway seem fine with a Democratic governor doing it. And that's a big chunk of what's wrong with politics here.

Hubert Davis is a players coach. It’s so genuine

New column: the way @UNC_Basketball played against Duke, and the way the entire day unfolded--from Chapel Hill to far-flung other corners of the world--was a nice reminder of why Carolina basketball matters. goheels.com/news/2024/2/3/…

This is Carolina Basketball. 📺 es.pn/47tNHSk

OH-SO SAVY!! 👑 With the second overall pick in the @NWSL Draft, defender Savy King will join @wearebayfc for its inaugural season! #GoHeels x #NWSLDraft
