I’d rather be playing with the baby or on my bike. I oversee the largest utility building electrification program in the US. We should build more homes, here, there, everywhere. Yes, I watched that Knicks game.

Deportations actually _increase_ housing prices because they shrink the construction industry.
The reduction in new houses being built swamps effects from lower demand

Literally pollution for the hell of it. Costs more, utilities and regulators don't want it, more people will die early deaths and get asthma.
The Trump admin seems set to force two Colorado coal plants to stay open past their planned closure this year, even as the costs of keeping an aging, unnecessary Michigan coal plant running through the summer top $80M. Are more must-run orders coming?

Trump’s DOE may soon force more coal plants to stay open
Colorado coal plants are likely to face DOE orders to keep running past planned closure dates, even as the costs of keeping an old Michigan plant open…

I got real mad at the Senate dems caving last night. So I signed up for stuff: Rep Your Block info session for County Committee, added the next @opennewyork.org meeting to my calendar and RSVP’d to a climate protest to keep myself accountable for showing up.

Palladino in for Juric for Atalanta. I thought Palladino’s Fiorentina last year was fun, ran hard and was dangerous. Of course it helps to have Kean. Kneejerk reactions are silly, but I think this is better than slogging along with Juric. m.tuttoatalanta.com/primo-piano/...
TA - E' finita l'avventura di Juric a Bergamo: Palladino sarà il nuovo allenatore. Oggi l’annuncio ufficiale
Dopo il tracollo col Sassuolo, i Percassi hanno deciso per l’esonero del tecnico croato. L’ex Monza e Fiorentina pronto a subentrare: firma attesa in mattinata.

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.

Atalanta hasn’t won a Serie A game since 9/21. They are 0-5-2 and have scored 4 goals in those 7, with back to back losses to Cremonese and Sassuolo but ties with the two best teams they played, Milan and Juve. Minus Retegui, this is basically the team that finished third last year. #sad

1st year coach concedes he’s made the team worse: "The coach always bears responsibility, for better or worse. It disturbs me emotionally to see players who used to perform well and now have slipped again."

Every dollar spent on NESE would be better spent weatherizing buildings and deploying heat pumps and related building electrification tech in NYC and on LI.
Oh, and building it is not consistent with the CLCPA after another judge already ruled that DEC is violating the law. Lawsuits coming?

The state Department of Environmental Conservation on Friday approved a key water-quality permit for a natural-gas pipeline that would extend about 17 miles in New York waters — after rejecting the proposal three times since 2018.

State Permits Trump-Backed Natural Gas Pipeline in New York Waters
The Williams pipeline would span 17 miles near the Rockaways and Staten Island. The state had rejected the project three times previously.

My team worked on alternatives to NESE half a decade ago. Stunning to see Hochul just slip it in through. $B charged to New Yorkers …
don't even have to wait to vote stefanik
Unbelievable betrayal of New Yorkers as @governor.ny.gov caves to Trump's drill baby drill agenda in approving the NESE fracked gas pipeline.
I hope she's ready for a lot of rage because that is what's coming.

No question. Even at staff/managerial levels, both my wife and I are interested in public service. Roughly lateral moves imply taking salary cuts of ~30%. We’ve talked about it and built it into our family plan, but it’s real.
it’s not only a recipe for corruption, it’s a talent issue - we lose a ton of talented folks who would do fantastic work in public service to the private sector because of the salary delta, which most people don’t have family money to make up for
these are important jobs that should pay well

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up

I think this is true and also applies to state and local government.
I have long argued that the single best thing you could do to improve the functioning of the US government is double the salaries of everyone working on Capitol Hill. Serving Congress shouldn’t involve poverty wages in DC. You could attract a much wider set of perspectives netting a better result.

Under Mayor Mamdani, New York will soon skip the step of widening bike lanes and instead turn major avenues into bike streets.
NYC’s first triple wide bike lane??

Given opponent (OLM is 2nd in Ligue 1) and situation, Atalanta played their best full game of the season. Certainly their best start to a match. Dominated first 15’ and earned the pen that CDK couldn’t finish. Flagged after that but controlled middle of the field and created space and chances.

While we wait for election night results, let’s look at the NBA standings. Seven or eight games into the NBA season, I think there’s a decent chance that the top 10 in each conference will be the playoffs and play-in teams. Prove me wrong, Celts, Jazz and Grizz. Early sorting!

Cuomo championed and won another prize environmentalist wish-list items including closure of the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant in the Hudson Valley and blocking gas pipelines. 6/

Andrew Cuomo being driven around at low speeds in a white Bronco seems fitting for this great respecter of women. Where did he even find a white Bronco in NYC?

Voted early on Saturday. I got a little emotional at the ballot proposals. It was a thrill to vote directly for more housing and more affordable housing. Thank you to everyone who got us here. And let’s do it again. So vote yes on all of those ballot measures, NYC.
