[applause] i've spoken a lot today about families, the shots i have taken and will continue to take. and that caused me to think about my own family, especially my father who died unexpectedly when i was heading off to israel in the wake of the october 7 terrorist attack. right before i was heading to the war zone, i decided to call him. it ended up being my final call to him. he said, "dolly, i'm so proud of you. but keep your goddamn head down." that was my father. but i'm sorry, dad, i can't keep my head down. because you taught me you don't keep your head down, you charge into the necessary fights. and as you always said, when the go

i think doing those quickly afters good thing for new york recovery. itre would not have been possibe if they hadn't already proven yes, w we can have a block closd off for pedestrians and we can repurpose a space in the world is not going to fall apart. longer term challenge is you can't just sort of take away traffic on a wide roadbed and declare this to be an open street. you need programming going for the city and other levels of government just sort of known to do this and people being paid to advocate for transit and going to run the trains pretty frequently and so there are many idiosyncratic legacies and may be too easy to say if we were the political capital of the problems being solved. the 1966 transit strike was important and first time there was no transit and showed how important transit was to the city and if we hadn't had that strike arguably, we would not have created the mta and eventually refunded the transit system, but that of course, the transit strike was mike quill's strike and head of the transport worker's's union in a much mo

very bad for you because it will move the traffic from new york and manhattan, south of 60th street,have means, to the pollution shifting away and into northern new jersey and the outer boroughs, leading to more smog and cancer-causing pollution into those areas. what the judge is said to new york is, you want to go ahead with this, fine, but you owe us a plan to explain to new york and the outer boroughs, like the bronx or staten island or northern new jersey, explanations of what you will do to deal with all this smog blooming in. the lawsuits are still ongoing. we have bipartisan legislation we are working on in the house with new jersey and new york members of congress, who say not only is this not the right time to jack up taxes on hard- working families like electricians or firefighters or nurses or uber drivers who bear the brunt of these costs, but it will hurt the environment in order new jersey. maybe go through parts of nicer new york, but not for hard- pressed families living in jersey and the outer boroughs of new york city. >> finally, congressman, the fpa added new dro

thomas recently wrote a book called new york new york it's a wonderful history of new york. he talks about cycles of order and disorder. at some point new york feels more orderly. people get a little tired of that. important point and it snaps back. people are tired of the disorder and what order again. to the importance of order, criminal justice, focus on our ability to open up pedestrian plazas, subway ridership and its impact on all the issues you write about. >> the third major lesson that i took away from writing the book is as hard as it is to get new yorkers to experiment with anything, it's much harder if they don't feel a basic sense of public safety and public order again you have no prayer of doing congestion pricing when people are afraid to write on the subway. the argument more people dying cars that is true. if you are thinking about that decision do i get on the subway and risk having something unpleasant happen or do i get in the car almost certainly have a perfectly pleasants ride. these are the decisions people make on a day-to-day basis if you do not fee

they said yesterday, we're going to new york city today, wow, you are telling us you are coming to new york. so many people here, they can't all run, it costs 4.5 billion per year to house them and feed them and who knows how much it is costing there. >> ainsley: seeing in chicago, boston and now in new york city and this has been a week since donald trump was inaugurated and yesterday two men in the u.s. were arrested in denver, approximately 1130,000 pills seized with fentanyl, cocaine, meth, think of lives being saved. telling gangs you are not welcome here, take your gangs to another country. rapists are getting arrested, people charged with domestic violence, criminals who had plans to do what they did to joslyn nungaray down in texas or laken riley down in georgia. lives are being saved. sam olsen, ice field officer says trump is bringing organizations together to arrest the worst of the worst. listen. >> it's been amazing so far the support we've been getting this is unprecedented whole of government approach we're experiencing. along with ice, enforcement and homeland security

i have been proud as a member of the new york delegation a just a proud new yorker to file an ethicsnt against alvin bragg. the corrupt process, the jury selection process. [applause] think about this. it is so corrupt that in the jury selection process, the jurors were asked, do you follow any social media accounts of resident donald j trump did if any of them said yes they were not allowed to serve on the jury they were not asked that about joe biden. they jury shopped and then they illegally judge shopped. the fact that this is a judge that donated to joe biden, it is corrupt. corrupt to the core. on top of that, the judge's direct family members are some of the chief fundraisers for radical democrats like adam schiff. fundraising off of this illegal loss there court case going after president donald j trump. we must save our country at the ballot box this november. it will be the american people that save the constitution and save this country and fight back [applause] i will tell you, this is part of the reason why recently usc president trump gaining in poll after poll. he is a

and erie county, which is buffalo in new york. i share that because it reflects the relatively conservative new york legislator, even though they are democrats, for the most part in the assembly in the senate, they are not insensitive to the fact that there are those three kids under five living in a situation that raises real concerns for them about whether new york's children should be living that way and, i agree very much with the change in the law with respect to the state central registry. but i think new york is not as -- we are, in many ways, purple as opposed to blue. the loud city of new york is very, very blue, but as a states, we are not. one thing i want to say about anonymous reporting, i have one concern about eliminating anonymous reporting and i realize the response might be confidential reporting, but there are not a few victims of sexual abuse in their homes who call the state central registry because they are in the bathroom, they are freaking out, they are worried about their siblings and themselves, and they

how our new york. i have a message for the mainstream media and i can say this as a born and raised new yorker. new york is trump country. wow. it is to be here in the icon madison square garden. president trump has been talking about this rally for years. what a way to kick off the final week of the most epic campaign to save. every election, we say, is the most important in our lifetime. but this one really is. no matter where you go, whether it's in new york city, upstate new york, or in any of the swing states, people understand there is so much at stake. and it is we the people when we vote for president donald j. trump, we the people will say, america. just look at the that kamala harris and joe biden have brought to our nation and have brought right here to new york. the border crisis. illegals swarming our streets taking billions of. our hard earned taxpayer dollars. all because kamala harris is joe biden's open border czar. she owns border crisis. she created it or the inflation? the highest ra

i think it has been a tremendous setback for new york and the new york court system. this is a case that alvin bragg did not want to bring. he thought it was, from what i read and what i hear a gentleman from a law firm came in and acted as a district attorney and that gentleman from what i heard , it was very inappropriate, somebody involved with my political opponent. part of the records we are talking about, i just noticed where i was falsifying business records. the falsification of business records, as they say, it was a legal expense in the book so everyone could see them. legal fees or legal expense were put down by legal expense by accountants. they weren't put down by me, they were put down by accountants. i didn't call them construction, concrete work. i didn't call them electrical work. they were called a legal fee or legal expense a legal expense and for this i got indicted. it is incredible actually. now, if you look, my attorney alluded to it, the top legal scholars and legal pundits in this country, the ones that are quotedll the time on television that

i think it's an embarrassment to new york. new york has a lot of problems. this is a great embarrassment. i believe is and other cases brought, the doj is very much inlved in this ce, because that is the political opponent they are talking about. the doj is very involved. a gentleman sitting therfrom the doj, he was also involved with the new york state attorney generacase. he went from there to here, wen around and did what he had to do, got them to move on me, but in the meantimi won the electionn massive landslide and the people of this country understand what has gone on. this has been a weapization of government. they cl lawfare. it has never happen in our country before. i was treatednfrly. thank you very much. judge merchan: thank you mr. trump. mr. trump you appear before this cour today to colu this criminal proceeding by the imposition of sentence. although i have kethe unusual step of informing you in vae of my inclinations, before imposing sentence i believe it is important for you, as well as those observing these proceedings to understand my re
