.@NYC_DOI finds the Conflicts of Interest Board erred in allowing First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro to remain Madison Square Garden's lawyer while at City Hall without a public waiver.
This comes after we first reported Mastro would remain MSG's lawyer: nydailynews.com/2025/04/14/d…

New Jersey's past of corruption doesn't have to be our future. We can reject corrupt machine politics and elect a new generation of leaders who work for the people. I'm excited to keep notching victories like these for our grassroots pro-democracy movement.

Sharing my @NYDailyNews oped on the importance of local journalism. If we want competitive elections, accountable institutions, and communities that feel seen and heard, we must rebuild the local press that makes democracy real. Welcome your thoughts, and please share with friends. nydailynews.com/2025/12/07/l…

I’m getting inquiries about the even-year ballot proposal in NYC It is advisory, with no effect. The state constitution must be changed, a multi-yr effort including a statewide referendum And “if” Albany acts, it could take any number of forms. Don’t hope and don’t worry

This is a must read for all wannabe mayoral candidates. Besides the hilarious political cuento there’s a historical Nueva Yol that he lived and is around to tell it. Worth the read while we wait for the 7 p.m. debate on @ny1.
