Politics

NYC politics: where incompetence meets corruption and they both run for office promising to fix the subway. We cover City Hall’s latest disasters, Albany’s ongoing war against downstate, and the spectacular delusions of politicians who think they can solve housing, homelessness, and transit with “task forces” and “blue ribbon panels.” From mayors who bike to Park Slope gyms while police motorcades follow to city council members representing districts they can’t afford to live in, we document democracy’s slow-motion car crash with unflinching humor and zero faith in reform. Vote early, vote often, vote cynically.
