Hey, at least no one's going to be talking about affordability for a week or two, right? #epsteinfiles

ProPublica could not find evidence Trump ever lived at either of the two Florida properties he claimed as principal residences in the 1990s.

Legal documents and other records from the period give his address as Trump Tower in Manhattan.

As the FBI’s deputy director, Bongino receives some of the country’s most sensitive secrets, including the President’s Daily Brief.

His ascent to that position without passing a standard bureau background check is unprecedented, insiders say.

Corruption. That's Adams' legacy.

Many NYC civil servants woke up thankful that Adams 2.0 lost last night and hopeful for an end to the cronyism, corruption, and ego driven leadership of the last few years. Those of us that have seen it from the insight are hoping that Mamdani cleans house.

They then recruited deputies to join and those that did benefitted.The female that's always with him?Less than 2 yrs on and promoted to Lt. Another who violated an OP on duty? Now chief.Dozens of stories like this.Complaints to DOI and COIB?Squashed by an old friend from NYPD who oversees complaints

Guardians, Latino Officers Association... It was one big let's hook our boys up racket. Look at the scandal plagued administration and it's all members. Jeffries, Sheppard l,Miranda. Miranda even had the president of the association he founded transfered to the Sheriff's office to scam OT.

If the Bally's deal goes through, watch Adams be appointed Trump's special envoy for all things NYC, essentially forcing Mamdani to treat him as the guy whose ring and policies have to be carried out to get funding and other friendly moves. And let's see how many of his appointees he demands stay..

Let's not forget that Trump will get $150 million if the Bally's deal goes through. Eric Adams trades the will of the people for the Feds dropping his case. For that, Trump gets $150 mil.

Then again, no change will come until the current crop of dinosaur Dems goes away. Truth be told, one party is beholden to billionaires, the other to corporations. Both benefit from heafty donations, post-office jobs, and insider tips.

Eventually, a Democrat President will benefit from all the power granted to the office by the current court. Curious if the court has considered that.

Will you endorse Mamdani?
September 9, 2025 at 11:11 PM
And the NY Democrats have a choice - follow the will of the people or show that they never cared about them in the first place. Ignoring Mamdani will be consequential for those that chose the latter.

You can deny a bunch of stuff, but prices at stores are felt by all, including his followers. That can't be denied.

Mayor Adams’ connection to this NYPD unit has been so close, former officials said, that he was given private access to a live feed of the unit’s body-worn cameras.

He recently chose one of the team’s leaders to be deputy mayor of public safety.
