Purchase Canned Cat Food for Seniors in Our Community From Kiso’s Amazon List

With the cost of everything going up, I’m glad Kiso’s Pet Pantry is providing food for senior’s pets in Bay Ridge.
Kiso’s shared that they are low on canned cat food for this weekend and they posted their Amazon list if anyone is interested in donating food: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1ETEQZNTUG7UQ

April 28, 2026Inna Vernikov Asked Why There is No Way to Contact The NYC Antisemitism Task Force

Mayor Mandami appointed Phylisa Wisdom as the Executive Director of The Taskforce to Combat Antisemitism on February 2nd.
On April 22nd, Phylisa Wisdom would not provide Councilwoman Inna Vernikov a way for her to be contacted. Is this a real taskforce? Listen to the video:
Zohran Mamdani’s Task Force to Combat Antisemitism:
— The Persian Jewess (@persianjewess) April 28, 2026
No Phone Number
No Email Address
No Website
No Social Media Presence
Led by a Self-Hating Jew
It’s an absolute farce built to exist on paper while doing nothing to protect Jews in NYC. pic.twitter.com/FhTGzfHYHt
Why didn’t Phylisa Wisdom provide her email address or phone number to the Councilwoman? She obviously doesn’t care and isn’t taking action against antisemitism.

How come Kayla Santosuosso isn’t carrying a five million dollar check into Telecommunications High School? How come Alexa Aviles isn’t bringing five million to New Utrecht High School?

Assemblyman Lester Chang shared that a woman was assaulted on 60th Street and 7th Avenue. He said that the block was poorly lit because a lot of people don’t have lights outside their home.

April 25, 2026Xaverian High School Will Break Grounds For Their New Wing

Xaverian High School is expanding and adding an exploration and innovation center. They are breaking ground this Spring and expect the new wing to be ready in 2027.

This new twenty-six million dollar wing will be for new classrooms, a science lab, a fabrication lab and a rooftop terrace. The chapel will also be moved into the new wing. Sixth graders to twelfth graders will use the new wing.
If you recall, the residents off MacKay Place were not happy about a giant cross that was going to be added to the expansion. On the recent photos, I don’t see the cross. Have they changed their plans?
