Public safety has always been the North Star of this administration. Keeping our city safe is not just about crime stats — it is also about how people are feeling. And New Yorkers have strong feelings about illegal mopeds and scooters, especially when they are driving the wrong way down streets, on sidewalks, or in the dark without any lights, and when they are modified to increase noise and disturb neighborhoods.

The rise of the moped era has terrorized many of our pedestrians. Seniors and older adults are afraid of being run down right on their own block. Parents are afraid their children can be injured by someone popping a wheelie. And everyday residents dread that sound as they hear it approaching.

But sometimes the use of these illegal vehicles is more than a danger or a nuisance, sometimes it is criminals. Criminals often use illegal mopeds and ghost vehicles to ride around and snatch cell phones, jewelry, and wallets from New Yorkers, or worse, to flee after committing a shooting, robbery, or another violent crime.

Our administration will not tolerate crime or riders who think the rules do not apply to them; that is why we have been taking action on this issue since day one. And as summer starts and more of these vehicles are out, we have ramped up enforcement all over the city, leading to us to confiscate and impound more than 100,000 of these vehicles since 2022. That’s…

This National Gun Violence Awareness Month, where we honor and remember victims of gun crimes, our administration is making good on our promise to eradicate gun violence. From day one, we have worked to create safer streets, safer subways, and a safer city for all New York families.

We have listened to our communities and our neighbors and deployed resources where they are needed most. The numbers are in, and it is clear we are delivering a safer city for residents of the five boroughs. Thanks to our upstream and downstream investments, New York City has seen record low shootings and homicides in 2025 already. Last month, we set the record for the fewest number of shooting incidents and homicides for the month of May in recorded history. And those massive declines in May led to New York City seeing the lowest number of shootings and homicides in recorded history for the first five months of the year.

But this is no accident, it is the result of our administration’s clear and continuing focus on eradicating gun violence in New York City. Since the beginning of this year alone, the NYPD…

This Saturday, June 21st, with support from Stand With Crypto, blockchain education platform BronxCrypto and VTATV will host a free public workshop “Bronx Votes Crypto.” The event will focus on technology literacy, blockchain and digital asset education, and legislation to regulate the technology moving through Congress. To be held at the historic Westchester Square Library in the Bronx, the event can be accessed from anywhere through the metaverse here.

Julio Barrios, founder of BronxCrypto, said, “this event is about education, advocacy, and community empowerment — making sure the Bronx isn’t left out of the future of entrepreneurship, technology, and finance. We want our family and neighbors to not only understand crypto and its potential, but to have a voice in advocating for consumer protections and clear rules to govern it. With the CLARITY Act and the GENIUS Act, Congress is making important steps forward and everyone from Senator Schumer to Ritchie Torres to AOC must support these bills. We need all hands on deck. Let’s position the Bronx as a leader in blockchain knowledge and innovation.”

“The Bronx is voting crypto,” Barrios continued

Attendees will learn about key legislative efforts shaping the future of digital finance, including the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act, and policy developments under the Trump administration. The workshop aims to help residents understand how emerging technology intersects with economic opportunity and activism and advocacy.

The event will feature guest speakers JayConnects, Stu Kwan, Apollo, among others. In addition to informative programming, participants can look forward to crypto giveaways, NFT drops, and refreshments.

The first ten attendees will receive bonus merchandise and double the crypto drop.

The American League Central has emerged as one of baseball’s most competitive divisions in 2025, with four teams separated by just 8.5 games as of early June. The Kansas City Royals find themselves in fourth place with a 34-32 record, trailing the division-leading Detroit Tigers by 8.5 games.

While this positioning might suggest disappointment, the Royals remain firmly in the wild card conversation, sitting just 1.5 games out of a playoff spot.

Their season represents a complex mix of pitching excellence and offensive struggles that defines their competitiveness within a surprisingly deep division.

Current Division Landscape

The AL Central standings reveal a division where three teams hover around .500 while the Tigers have separated themselves as the clear frontrunner. Detroit’s 44-25 record (.638 winning percentage) represents the best mark in the division by a significant margin.

The Twins, Guardians, and Royals occupy the middle tier with remarkably similar records, each posting win percentages between .516 and .540. Meanwhile, the White Sox continue their historically poor campaign with a 21-43 record, on pace for another disastrous season following their 121-loss 2024 campaign.

This four-team race for playoff positioning has created an environment where every series carries significant implications for postseason hopes.

Offensive Production Comparison

Kansas City’s offensive struggles represent their most significant challenge in 2025, as they rank fourth in the division with just 3.41 runs per…
