Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals.
As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them.
Go Knicks.

This coffee shop in Kyiv opened yesterday, then got hit by a russian air strike just hours later.
Today, they're still open and people in Kyiv are lining up to buy a coffee to support them, stepping over debris and broken glass on the way in.
FYI, the coffee is excellent 🇺🇦

I covered Jason Kidd when he played for the Nets. I know one of his childhood friends. I've been to his house, met his kids, then-wife, and Pilates Instructor. And I have insight from many people who worked with him in his coaching years. This is a great firing.

Imagine Obama saying this in a tan suit.
Trump: Drugs coming by sea meaning coming by water. A lot of people don’t know what I mean by sea. They think I mean vision. I’m talking about sea like the sea.

I used this term daily for years working in a brewery when we ran out of beers or food. It's just a remarkably stupid argument.
Jesse Watters promoted President Donald J. Trump's false claim that '86' was a mob term for murder. Watters used the term in July 2025 to describe people getting canceled by the mainstream media. I provide receipts along with the dictionary definition of the term - 86

Look, was LIV Golf successful? No.
Did it bolster the reputations of everybody involved? Also, no.
But was it fun? Once again, no.
