Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…

Thrilled to see PSC Executive Council member @DrSusanLK appointed by @NYCMayor to the Commission on Government Efficiency. Dr. Kang’s decades-long impact on helping to lead political reforms in New York and her academic credentials make her an excellent choice for COGE.

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed. Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.

South Korea’s push to hold a constitutional referendum alongside the June 3 local elections is gaining momentum — but faces a key hurdle: opposition resistance. Can Seoul pull it off? koreaherald.com/article/1069…

No one profits more off foreign labor than Dana White
NEW: UFC is having a massive year with a $7.7 billion Paramount deal and a $60 million fight on the White House lawn. But while CEO Dana White makes millions, fans get skyrocketing ticket prices and fighters are locked into exploitative contracts. It's a $23 billion monopoly.

한동훈 전 대표, 80년대 살아보신 분이 현대사도 잘 모르시는 것 같네요. 80년대 미 정부가 독재정권을 방관해 비판했던 진보진영? 틀렸습니다. 80년대 미국은 본인들의 이익에 따라 전두환 독재정권을 묵인, 승인, 비호했죠. 그게 핵심인데, 무슨 헛소리를 하시는건지. 지금 미국은 여전히 자신들의 이익, 패권을 위해 타국의 주권을 폭력을 동원해 뺏고 국제법을 명백히 어기고 있습니다. 미국은 예나 지금이나 자국의 패권을 위해 횡포를 부리고 있습니다. 올해 들어서는 군사력을 쓰겠다는 제국주의적 발상을 실행하고 있고요. 윤석열이 저지른 국가폭력(=계엄)도 눈치만 보고 말리지도 못했으면서,트럼프의 만행에도 눈치보기 하는 겁니까. 비굴하기 짝이 없습니다.

🟢 Drop Site contributor Andreína Chávez joined Democracy Now! this morning from Caracas to discuss the Venezuelan response and perspective on the U.S. operation. Chávez said President Nicolás Maduro was “kidnapped,” not lawfully seized, in a clear violation of international law and Venezuelan sovereignty. She rejected U.S. claims of negotiations with Caracas, saying Vice President Delcy Rodríguez has instead urged citizens to fight and resist “imperialist aggression.” Chávez reported hearing explosions and military aircraft around 2 a.m., confirming that at least seven locations across Caracas were attacked. She rejected U.S. portrayals of Venezuela as a “drug cartel state,” saying there is no credible evidence to support the claim. Venezuelan government officials, including Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López and Interior Minister Doddo Cavejo, have called for calm, resistance, and trust in the Venezuelan government, denying any negotiations with the U.S. @AChavezAlava | @democracynow
