Eric Adams tore into new DA Alvin Bragg Thursday night, criticizing the prosecutor's soft-on-crime approach as crimes continue to plague the Big Apple
'We need to now stop the domestic terror that we're living out every day in these cities,' Adams, 61, told host Rita Cosby Thursday night on The Rita Cosby Show
The former police captain credited the increase to policy changes made by Bragg last month that lighten punishments for armed robbery and burglary
The DA's policies, announced in a memo last month, allow career criminals and repeat offenders back on the streets after committing violent, felony offenses
The mayor said 'there is no appropriate response to [criminals'] bad behavior' thanks to Bragg's policies, which nix prison sentences for all but serious crimes
The new mayor described New York City as 'a failing company' because of skyrocketing crime, and proclaimed 'I’m the new CEO'
The woman, who goes by @shamsiaaaa on TikTok, said that the man was making her uncomfortable by staring at her while she sat on a bench
When he stood up, she got up to leave and walked away, but he followed
As she began filming, he said he would 'knock her out,' 'slit her throat,' and 'knock her f***ing teeth out' What is the gentleman’s accent? I can’t tell.
She said the video was interrupted by an incoming call, but he also threatened to put a bullet in her before finally walking in a different direction
She also said that she didn't know that the was homeless until TikTok commenters said they recognized him as a homeless man who is frequently seen around Union Square, the East Village, and Washington Square Park. So I’m not the only one — he looked to me to be well-groomed, unlike the homeless guy stereotype
According to the newest statistics released by the NYPD, the seven 'major crimes' tracked by the NYPD are up 37.66% year to date
The NYPD data reports a 26.5% increase in rape, a 32.9% increase in robbery, and an 11.5% increase in felony assault, but a 18.8% decrease in murder
[Epoch Times] A Virginia judge on Friday afternoon granted a temporary injunction to seven school districts in Virginia to allow school boards to continue to mandate mask-wearing for students.
One of Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s first executive orders sought to give parents flexibility in whether to allow mask-wearing for their children in education settings. Several school boards, in response, filed a lawsuit in the Arlington Circuit Court on Jan. 24.
Arlington Circuit Court Judge Louise DiMatteo ruled in favor of seven school boards involved in the lawsuit. The judge ruled that Youngkin cannot override the decision of local school boards on mask-wearing under a 2021 state law.
DiMatteo also ruled that she believes the current policies of universal masking are beneficial. You ruled what you believe?
"Keeping rules in place that have been established over the school year helps children, families, and staff understand how they may be impacted during the pandemic. Without a restraining order, children and staff would have to reassess certain health conditions they believe are impacted by a mask policy," she wrote. How about reassessing policy based on the recent reduction in covid cases? Or maybe you don't believe those stories?

Keeping rules in place that have been established over the school year helps children, families, and staff understand how they may be impacted during the pandemic.
Interesting. How does that apply the student rapists' policy?
More on topic, Judge Louse is not only impartial, but making the case that whether a policy is legal or illegal, so long as the school year has started policy cannot be changed.
So say a policy is illegal. Like covering up tranny rapists. Hold that policy until the end of Spring semester?
[NN] The former president and former first lady are said to be frustrated with the slow pace of development at Spotify amid music stars making their exit from the platform amid the "woke" backlash.
The Obamas are now looking at new deals with other companies, according to sources.
As The Daily Mail reported:
The duo’s Higher Ground Audio company signed a three-year deal with Spotify in June 2019, but sources say it can be hard to get a show green-lit at the Swedish music streamer.
Moreover, according to Vanity Fair, the Obamas are more interested in putting forth "young new voices" rather than carrying shows themselves, which first reported rumblings of the couple’s dissatisfaction. because that would require actual work. Lazy bastids
Last week, Spotify caved to the "woke" mob and introduced new rules to crackdown on free speech.

Since David Crosby is trending over demanding that his music be pulled from Spotify, I’d like to point out that he sold his catalog last year and doesn’t own or control his music catalog anymore.

Ketanji Brown Jackson is a potential nominee for the Supreme Court
Her former clerk edited her Wikipedia page to 'paint her in a more favorable light for a liberal audience,' according to a Politico investigation
The anonymous editor was identified by a group of the judge's former law clerks as Matteo Godi who used to clerk for the judge
The user made more than 20 edits to the pages of seven judges seen to be in the running for Biden's nomination
Godi, a Yale Law graduate from Italy, clerked for Jackson from October 2019 to October 2020, according to his LinkedIn
President Biden said he will announce his nominee pick to replace retiring Justice Breyer before the end of February
Godi, who grew up in the Parma region of Italy, attended the Pierson College at Yale before going to law school at the Ivy League school. He completed clerkships with Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and Judge Guido Calabresi of the Second Circuit.
Matteo was a visiting Lecturer at Yale Law School last fall, where he taught a course on Torts and Regulation.
During law school, he worked at NAACP LDF, Equal Justice Under Law, and the D.C. Public Defender Service.
The law clerks told Politico that their former colleague had edited Jackson's Wikipedia page 'as a matter of course' for several years.
The most recent changes to Jackson's page were on January 30 and February 1, and involved two rulings against the Trump administration that were later overturned.
The portion of the Wiki page detailing Jackson's most famous decision - to require former White House counsel Don McGahn to obey a congressional subpoena involving then-President Donald Trump - was altered.
The New York Times noted Jackson's 'slow pace' helped Trump 'run out the clock on the congressional oversight effort' before the 2020 election. Jackson's updated Wikipedia page shifts the blame for the ruling’s timing from Jackson to the D.C. Circuit court.
In the another, user H2rty cut a reference to Jackson's position on an advisory board of 'a Baptist school.'
Both were portions were replaced replaced with: 'Ahead of her confirmation hearing, 'Bloomberg Law' reported that conservative activists were pointing to certain decisions by Jackson that had been reversed on appeal as a 'potential blemish on her record,' in order 'to tarnish her so she won't get picked for the Supreme Court.'
