#NYC - Eric Adams says many Gen Z voters who back his NYC mayoral rival Mamdani are ‘nasty, radicalized and hate our country’

> New York Mayor Eric Adams did not mince his words about his disapproval of what he called the large number of “nasty” Gen Z voters supporting Zhoran Mamdani, the democratic socialist candidate leading the race for NYC mayor.

> “I have never witnessed a more mean and angry and nasty electoral season — and not all of Zohran’s voters are, but a substantial number of them,” Adams, 65, told the New York Post about his 33-year-old opponent’s following in an interview published Saturday.

> “You know, when you sit in a restaurant with a family, a family restaurant, children are there, and you’re sitting down with your loved ones and family, and someone is yelling out, ‘F you!’ Cursing!” independent.co.uk/news/world/a #EricAdams #GenZ #ZhoranMamdani #NewYorkCity

The Independent · Eric Adams says many Gen Z voters who back his NYC mayoral rival Mamdani are ‘nasty, radicalized and hate our country’By Erin Keller

Although it looks like a painting, this record cover art for Thelonious Monk's amazing album Underground was not painted but photographed. The photograph was created by Steve Horn & Norman Griner and was shot at their studio, located in a townhouse off Third Avenue in New York City.

The cover features Thelonious Monk portrayed as a French Resistance fighter during World War II, a concept inspired by his friend and patroness, Pannonica de Koenigswarter, who had served in the resistance and appear to be in the background. The set was built and furnished for the photo shoot, and the final image includes props such as a gagged Nazi officer, a cow, hand grenades, liquors or wine bottles, a telephone, binoculars, fruits and cheese, explosives and a more for you to find here.

The #NYPD Is Teaching America How to Track Everyone Every Day Forever

Wherever you go in #NYC, there’s a good chance the #police are #tracking you. Enter the subway system, for instance, & your #identity, #banking information & #location trickle into city databases.

Walk down the street & you’re likely to be recorded by one of thousands of security cameras, some belonging to the NYPD, others connected or available to the dept's databases.
