I've probably photographed Brad Lander more than any other elected in NYC because the dude shows up. He's everywhere, he's incredibly accessible, and he genuinely loves New Yorkers. You can literally go up and talk to him whenever he shows up. Go ahead, try it!

Today is the 4 year anniversary of our first union victory! Since then, we've won over 650 union elections.
It's been 4 years without a contract, and 4 years of union busting. That's why we're on day 26 of our national ULP strike - and we won't back down.

It’s time their voices are heard at the same volume as CEOs earning millions.

I don't remember Mallrats that well but this feels like a good theory.
this is pretty good but it still does not touch upon my crackpot theory about MALLRATS, which is that it's structured like a shakespeare comedy www.theringer.com/2025/11/24/m...
