At @ABetterNY, @ScottMStringer not so artfully tries to connect Yang’s criticism of UFT with his spending time in New Paltz during the worst of the pandemic. “He clearly doesn’t understand what so many went through” and implied he doesn’t “show respect” for teachers.

Stringer accuses Yang of trying to “score cheap political points” on criticizing UFT and well... both teams are playing a game right now.

A source says @AndrewYang and @TwuSamuelsen just had lunch together, as the endorsement courtship continues between Yang and the transit workers union.

TWU President John Samuelsen turned some heads with his nice tweet about Yang last week. Would be quite a notable endorsement, since Yang hasn’t picked up any real labor support* yet.

*Yes, Yang was co-endorsed by the Freelancers Union, which is a (very-large!) union-like advocacy group in my understanding, but not an actual labor union.

Which mayoral candidate is spending like a drunken sailor? ... Who's spending big in the Bronx specials? ... and can't say they didn't warn us about pandemic petitioning ... All in the newsletter: bit.ly/3lnDUa7

@AndrewYang

Rev. Sharpton knows show business - so @AndrewYang gets the *first* in-person speaking spot at NAN’s MLK Day celebration.

Yang talks about knocking doors in Georgia with MLK III, who just formally endorsed Yang’s mayoral campaign today.

Side note, this definitely feels like it’s violating some COVID regulations. Does this count as a church service? The seats are less than 6 feet apart for sure, though everyone I see is masked up.
