A year ago, due to a💥outage #ConEdison installed wires outside 272 BDWY,11211 as a temporary fix. Today, I saw a pedestrian coming out of Marcy Ave train station tripping over the wires that are reaching down into the basement of Dunkin’Donuts.
this is unacceptable.

I first want to thank la comunidad de la Avenida Puerto Rico for alerting me to this matter. It is unconscionable that elected officials were never advised about this action. I also want to thank the Mayor’s office and NYCDOT for responding to my calls.

Praising Hitler and denying the Holocaust is vile, appalling, and must be condemned. Our Administration will continue to stand up against antisemitism and the epidemic of hate.
The whole problem is parents sending kids sick to school with no mask. Teachers aren’t masking either, it’s suicide really.

The US is accusing two Chinese intelligence officers of trying to obstruct a criminal investigation of “a global telecommunications company” based in China, charges consistent with legal action against Huawei bloomberg.com/news/articles/ via .
I’m *not* trying to be rude… but everytime a poll drops that shows Zeldin gaining ground on Hochul, she tweets something just like this.
Maybe that’s part of the issue, this message isn’t resonating with who it needs to. There is a real lack of an affirmative vision here.
Quote Tweet
Lee Zeldin does not stand for democracy. He:
—Texted the Trump White House ideas for overturning the 2020 election
—Voted to throw out 2020 election results
—Opposed an investigation into January 6th
—Accepted Trump’s endorsement
We must reject this extremism in November.
