Targeting NY Pig Academy

Stop Cop City. This Means War.

On September 15, pigs in Brownsville opened fire on the L train over $2.90. The pigs shot three people over fare evasion. In the following weeks, pigs across the city brutalized and mass arrested anyone who protested against police terrorism.

We’ve all seen the increase of pigs in our communities, the national guard at subway stations, private security firms such as Allied partnering with the MTA. We’ve seen the blueprints for a 300-ft. high jail in Chinatown. We’ve seen an increase in violent sweeps of both street vendors and our homeless neighbors. Now, we’ve seen the announcement of a $225 million dollar copy city in Queens set to break ground in 2026 in College Point. Its purported goal is to consolidate training for 18 city agencies, including the departments of sanitation, homeless services, and children’s services. This facility aims to militarize city government workers against our most vulnerable neighbors and we are the ones paying for it to be built.

This on top of the nypd’s already-bloated budget, a record-breaking $12 Billion in 2025. This on top of the $22 Billion dollars the u.s. has sent to the zionist entity to fund its sadistic genocide in Gaza and its state terrorism in the West Bank, 48, Lebanon and Yemen. This on top of centuries of extraction to fund and pervade ever-expanding empire. Let this small act be a drop in a wave of abolitionist action.

FUCK 12, FUCK THE EMPIRE, SINWAR LIVES, ALL GLORY TO THE RESISTANCE.

Person charged with vandalizing Rep. Adriano Espaillat’s Manhattan office, which displays Israeli hostage posters

Posted on by neversleep

Police have charged [someone] for allegedly vandalizing the Manhattan district office of New York Rep. Adriano Espaillat last month.

Espaillat’s office in Washington Heights was splattered with red paint by two people, in an action similar to other recent incidents of anti-Israel vandalism. The two vandals also used hammers to smash the office’s windows, which displays fliers of Israeli hostages held by Hamas.

The incident took place in the predawn hours of Oct. 8, less than two weeks after the office had been hit with anti-Israel graffiti.

Security footage from the Oct. 8 incident showed two masked individuals carrying out the vandalism. The NYPD told the [news source] that police were still seeking the second individual.

The suspect who was arrested was charged with criminal mischief in the 3rd degree, a felony, along with two misdemeanors – making graffiti and possession of graffiti instruments. Court records showed that [the person] pleaded not guilty and has been released on bail.

The NYPD’s Hate Crimes Task Force had investigated the incident, but there were no hate crimes charges in the arrest report. Espaillat is not Jewish.

Espaillat is a Democrat representing Upper Manhattan and part of the Bronx. He has voted for additional aid to Israel and has spoken out in support of Israeli hostages, security funding for Jewish institutions, and Jewish students at Columbia University.

In the two days before the incident, he shared a message of solidarity with families of those held hostage by Hamas, attended the Oct. 7 memorial ceremony in Central Park, and stopped by a neighborhood commemoration event blocks away from his district office. The office is regularly picketed by small groups of pro-Palestinian protesters.

The New York Democratic Congressional Delegation condemned the vandalism shortly after it occurred, saying it came on a day of “solemn reflection” over the Oct. 7 attacks.

In the defacing of Espaillat’s office two weeks before the Oct. 8 incident, vandals scrawled “F— Israel,” “40k dead,” “genocide lover” and “terrorist” in red paint on the storefront office’s window and door. The graffiti also had an inverted red triangle.

Other pro-Israel New York congressmen have had their offices hit with anti-Israel graffiti since Oct. 7, including Reps. Daniel Goldman and Ritchie Torres, both Democrats, and Republican Rep. Mike Lawler.
