The arrest of Don Lemon by Trump’s Department of Injustice is an absurdity, even by the abysmal standards of this administration.
Any attack on the freedom of the press is an attack on our Constitution. Only authoritarian brutes, desperate to silence their critics and coverup
At this time of great unrest and instability throughout our nation, the work of public servants like Assembly Member Brian Cunningham to hold the line at the local level and lift up our most vulnerable community members is truly indispensable.
It was my privilege and pleasure to join him for his 2026 State of the District Ceremony. No matter the chaos throughout this country, it is because of Assemblyman Cunningham that New York City’s District 43 remains strong as ever!

Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder was a tragedy, and anyone who says otherwise has no place in public service.
However, I will not pretend to respect the harmful ideologies he proudly held, nor will I honor a man who built a career out of dishonoring Americans like me.
I voted no.
Jimmy Kimmel’s firing was an absurd abuse of power – that’s why I joined with @repfrankpallone to demand an FCC Oversight hearing IMMEDIATELY so we can have an opportunity to hold Chairman Brendan Carr accountable for weaponizing the FCC against free speech and expression.
Trump is hellbent on whitewashing the African American experiences in this country. No matter how many signs or exhibits this administration removes from our nation’s museums or national parks, our history will not be silenced.

As we pause today to remember the lives lost on #September11th – a day that forever changed our city, our nation, and the way we live – join me in honoring the first responders, families, and communities who experienced unimaginable loss.

Wishing all of our city’s students, parents, teachers, and faculty a very happy First Day of School!
Another year, another special West Indian Day Parade alongside our dear friends and neighbors from across the diaspora!
Our cultures and communities are unlike any others, and that is why I am truly blessed to call myself a woman of Caribbean descent.
One Love, everybody!
