    And hey @PeteButtigieg, try to not be so smug when you just got your ass kicked. You know how we form a winning coalition to beat Trump? With a true multi-racial coalition of working Americans: something @BernieSanders has proven he can do + you haven’t. Dude, show some humility

    I did a rent freeze and almost 2 million hard-working New Yorkers benefited. @ZohranKMamdani wants to do a rent freeze. You know who doesn’t want to do a rent freeze? @andrewcuomo, and he thinks he can trick us into forgetting that.
    Today, I am proud to announce that I will be proposing “Zohran’s law," a law that will keep the rich out of New York’s affordable housing. @ZohranKMamdani : you say freeze the rent. But for who? Rich people like you? Hardworking, working class New Yorkers are being pushed from

    Donald Trump will have to go through a lot of us first if he wants to arrest @ZohranKMamdani. We New Yorkers will put a human shield around him if we need to. No one gets to intimidate us.
    My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

    I demand the @thetimes pull down this story immediately. It is an absolute violation of journalistic ethics. The truth is I fully support @ZohranKMamdani and believe his vision is both necessary and achievable.
    I want to be 100% clear: The story in the Times of London is entirely false and fabricated. It was just brought to my attention and I’m appalled. I never spoke to that reporter and never said those things. Those quotes aren’t mine, don’t reflect my views. thetimes.com/us/american-po…

    I deeply respect @ewarren. Our nation + our party are better + more progressive because of her leadership. Now our progressive movement needs her more than ever. Senator, if the shoe was on the other foot @BernieSanders would have endorsed you already. Please join us!

    I'm standing with @BernieSanders because he stands w/ working families & always has. Bernie is the candidate to take Trump on & take him down. I'm proud to endorse a true progressive leader who will fight for working New Yorkers & families across the country.
    Mayor @BilldeBlasio knows that the only way we can defeat Trump is by uniting people from all backgrounds around an agenda that speaks to working families. I’m proud to have the support of a mayor fighting every day to improve the lives of New Yorkers. cnn.com/2020/02/14/pol…

    We've reduced stop-and-frisk by 97% in New York City and crime has gone down significantly. Not everyone knows that. Please share.

    Funny, I thought you would have proposed a law like this during your TEN YEARS as Governor, if it was so important to you. Or is possibly motivated by the fact that you’re TOTALLY LOSING to @ZohranKMamdani??
    Funny, I thought you only liked living rent-free when someone else is paying for it. 50+ million views later, as @ZohranKMamdani Rentgate continues, many questions remain: why did you tell the NYT and Vital City that you were moving out but never do it? Did your wealthy parents

    Replying to @BilldeBlasio
    I told the President-elect something a lot of people don’t know, and that is that there are 900 Muslim members of the NYPD protecting us all

    No, @JoeBiden, most Americans really DON’T like the status quo. Shouting out that you oppose change + you disdain the “revolutionary” idea that working people deserve a better America - well, THAT’S not the way to beat Trump. @BernieSanders will see you on the playing field Tues

    Let’s be clear: @andrewcuomo didn’t “pass” Pre-K for All, he tried to kill it.
    Let’s be clear- I passed universal pre-K when you were still living off your parents, @ZohranKMamdani, which you still are. I proposed universal 3K, as well as expanding free child care options, back in March. But while I have you…you’ve been ducking questions left and right

    As the guy who actually ended the Stop + Frisk policy + settled the lawsuit + sent Bloomberg’s police commissioner packing, let me answer that question: YES, stop and frisk was racist! And @MikeBloomberg stood by it til last year. If he weren’t running for Pres, no apology
