It’s worth noting that Mayor Mamdani never tweeted about the 32 year old mother stabbed and murdered outside her office at Bank of America in the summer, didn’t tweet about the man murdered at the 57th street subway stop this weekend or the Hasidic Jew who was followed and stabbed in broad daylight today in the diamond district. But did find time to tweet about Brad Landers foolish PR stunt in Israel. Anyone who cares about the safety of our city should be asking questions.
Today, Brad Lander, rabbis, and other New Yorkers accompanied Palestinian farmers during the olive harvest. For that, they were detained by the Israeli government.
Harvesting olives is not illegal. The occupation is.
I am thankful that Brad has been released. But other New Yorkers remain detained, and they must be released immediately.
The same Israeli government detaining them has committed a horrific genocide against Palestinians, killing more than 74,000 people over the last few years alone.
The detention of these New Yorkers must end. The occupation must end. The genocide must end.

A picture is worth a thousand words. @MicahLasher proudly accepting an endorsement from a congresswoman who has called Israel a “racist state,” repeatedly described the war in Gaza as a genocide, and advocated restricting weapons sales to Israel.
Please support @TheRealCShinkle.

Earlier today, a number of harvesters, accompanied by dozens of individuals, arrived to conduct an uncoordinated olive harvest in an area near Beitar Illit. Harvesting in this area requires a request to be submitted to the relevant authorities in advance of the start of the olive harvest season. This coordination is necessary to ensure the security of the area and maintain public order.
Due to the security risk posed by conducting an uncoordinated harvest near an Israeli community, IDF soldiers, Border Police forces in Judea and Samaria, and officers from the Judea and Samaria District Police arrived at the scene and detained those present.
The landowner was informed that he must coordinate the olive harvest on his plot of land and was provided with the relevant contact information to arrange a harvest at a later date.
It should be emphasized that authorized olive harvests have taken place and continue to take place. To date, approximately 100 coordinated harvests have been conducted across Judea and Samaria, yielding many dozens of tons of produce, with security provided and coordination by the security forces, without any unusual incidents.
In areas designated for coordinated harvesting, only harvesters will be permitted to enter, solely for the purpose of harvesting.
As in previous years, security forces are working to facilitate a safe and orderly olive harvest season, with a firm commitment to enabling harvesting without unusual incidents or interruptions, alongside their ongoing defensive and counterterrorism missions.

This was not about harvesting olives.
It was about harvesting headlines.
Brad Lander’s latest stunt is nothing more than a calculated political provocation.
Lander traveled to a foreign country, deliberately entered a restricted security area, and participated in an unauthorized activity without the required coordination.
What makes this stunt even more outrageous is that his own team contacted Israeli representatives in the United States ahead of his visit and was explicitly informed that proper coordination with the relevant authorities was required.
He chose to ignore those instructions.
At a time of heightened security tensions, Israeli security forces have a responsibility to protect lives, prevent dangerous incidents, and maintain public order.
Had anyone been injured as a result of his reckless political theater, Lander would undoubtedly have been among the first to demand that Israeli authorities intervene and provide protection.
Brad Lander came looking for a confrontation. Now he is pretending to be its victim.

If the VP wants to remain friends with Carlson, an individual who is thoroughly evil and full of hate for our country, for millions of Christians and, of course, Jews, and who is openly and publicly diabolical with his selection of guests and messaging, not to mention has made the most vile personal attacks against our president, then the VP will have to run for the GOP nomination with that anchor around his neck. He will have to defend it over and over again, as will his most vocal supporters. Should he receive the nomination, it will only get worse. But it's up to him.
President Trump made his decision long ago, and publicly condemned Carlson. It's not about loyalty. It's about right versus wrong and on what basis friendships are built. Yes, the VP will be judged, at least in part, by his very close association with Carlson, as all politicians are examined. To be clear, most Americans do not tolerate the kind of shockingly radical and evil views held by Carlson. They certainly do not befriend such people. The likes of Carlson are not new to our politics.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: PM Netanyahu points the finger at Russian and Qatari ops and bots for the ‘settler violence’ blood libel, calls Jews in Israel’s heartland “extraordinary” and “very brave.”
@IsraeliPM @Netanyahu tells C14’s Sophia Tupolev (@sophiatupolev) that ‘settler violence’ is a blood libel and a tool in the “8th front” disinformation war that Israel is fighting, and what he thinks it will take for Israel to overcome it.

For context that’s ($285mm) about a 0.09% weighing of Israeli equities vs. a .3% weighting of Israeli stocks in global markets. @MarkLevineNYC also cited the relative rate of Israel bonds to the city’s pension returns as his excuse for breaking his solemn promise to New Yorkers in cutting Israel bonds, which didn’t stop him from bankrolling a union run real estate fund that yielded low single digits.
The economic relationship between New York City and Israel is deeply important, bringing substantial investment into our city and generating strong returns for our pension funds.
Our funds invest around the world, including more than $285 million in Israel, primarily in equities. Israel remains one of the world’s most dynamic and innovative economies, and those holdings remain an important part of our portfolio. They also make clear that New York City’s pension funds are not engaging in BDS.
I expressed my deep appreciation for the Israel-NYC economic relationship during my campaign for comptroller, and that appreciation remains unchanged. I also pledged to make every investment decision free of politics, based solely on its financial merits and my fiduciary responsibility to 750,000 current and future retirees.
We apply those same principles to Israel Bonds. At present, a number of challenges, including constraints related to a rules change on our short-term investment desk made by the previous comptroller, prevent us from making direct purchases. We continue to evaluate this investment, as we do all potential investments.
Anyone suggesting that this means I am giving up on Israel is trying to turn the ordinary rebalancing and management of a pension portfolio into a political issue. That is simply not the case. Our commitment to investing in Israel remains clear in the hundreds of millions of dollars in Israeli equities that our pension funds continue to hold.
Like many Jewish New Yorkers, my deep personal connection to Israel is a part of who I am. It will not change. As New York City comptroller, I also have a solemn duty to safeguard our city’s pension funds, and I will not shirk that responsibility. I will continue to honor both commitments with integrity.

NYC Comptroller Mark Levine:
“Israel bonds have never missed a payment in 70 years, ever, not once.”
“By the way, we've had no protesting about our investments in Saudi Arabia, our investments in Pakistan or China, only this one little, tiny sliver.”
