For the past year, we’ve been haunting courtrooms, chasing transcripts & hanging around political clubhouses to investigate the machinations of NY’s broken judicial system. How do judges become judges in NYC? And how is it harming regular New Yorkers? Read all about it at our beautiful new website!
The Case File - Judges
In 2008, Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens famously described New York’s method of selecting judges for its higher trial courts as “stupid.” We concur, your honor! In New York’s unique system, c...

NYC’s paper of record has spoken
The mayor, governor, City Council speaker, and other New York officials past and present agree: It is wrong, and not funny at all, and perhaps a crime, to throw snowballs at New York's Finest. hellgatenyc.com/nypd-officer...
Terrific interview with @bradlander.bsky.social by the @hellgatenyc.com gang, including @maxrn.bsky.social and @k80way.bsky.social (subscribe to their reliably entertaining podcast!) With a funny reference to the time Lander accidentally put a Twitter/X link in a Bluesky post 👀

Last days of VICE coded (derogatory)
Lmao what (from today's Breaker newsletter)
this is a fantastic and honest piece that lays out a path for Zohran that, hypothetically, avoids the failures of de Blasio
So much has already been said about how a Mayor Zohran should orient himself towards the NYPD and yet here I am in @thedriftmag.com saying more
Best journalistic piece I've read so far on how Zohran should aim to govern the NYPD. The thesis is simple: Don't attempt to appease opposing parties and end up pleasing neither; define a position and stick to it. The piece's careful recounting of de Blasio's record backs this thesis up.

This was an awesome experience because people did not band together in an inspiring display of solidarity they mostly made jokes and acted annoying
I can't count how many times I've been in a train that stalled out between stations—but I can say with confidence that Sunday night was the first time I've ever had to hop on a "rescue train" with 230 other cranky straphangers.
