And steven raga may tun for state senator’s seat michael gianaris?

I stand with ICE! They are doing their jobs. ice has been around for a long time and not just this current administration but ones in the past too. I stand with ICE! That being said, this person thinks they are doing something and it is their right too.

Good for Julie! I'm all for this.

Don't forget Julie Won

I see alot of ICE in the street

FYI and friendly reminder no matter what “training” these morons try to teach or “educate” on you cannot legally supersede or Interfere with federal law. Smoke and mirrors. All bullshit.

Shame on him.

I hope y’all get locked up right next to Maduro

so your for illegals killing americans?

What an embarrassment that someone actually voted for these people to represent them. Their job isn't to incite protests, let people decide what they want to do. They mustve forgot they represent Americans in their community and think they are in a 3rd world country. The site is a secret for "community safety" If everyone they are representing (which is what they are supposed to do) agreed with them. there would be no safety issues.

Not because I live in MV, but Middle Village Bagels has the best bagels in NYC and I’ve tried a lot of places. The dough is always spot on, the sandwiches are consistently great, and everything tastes fresh. I wouldn’t mind seeing a few more cream cheese flavors like scallion and bacon, but overall it’s my go to spot and hard to beat.

The article states Middle Village Bagels is not accessible by public transportation🤣🤣 Aren't busses a form of public transportation?
