Several hundred NYSEG customers are without power late Friday morning, mostly in the Towns of Ithaca, Dryden, Danby, and Newfield, hours after heavy winds and rain swept across the area. Remember to treat any traffic lights that are out as an ALL-WAY STOP.

It may well be worse now than in the past, but this is extremely typical. I’ve had clients detained by ICE, and it’s like they fall into a black hole. Getting in touch with people in state or federal prison, or even county jail, is easier by an order of magnitude.
They are disappearing people. Listen to this. Nightmare. (And the longer they stay the more money core civic makes)

According to Howard Lutnick, Donald Trump's favorability has fallen by 150% since January.
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

It’s important to remember that fossil fuel proponents aren’t just creating a climate crisis threatening the livable atmosphere, they’re also pushing a more expensive form of energy than what is available with renewables.

President Trump says that checks for $1,776 each are going out to nearly 1.5 million servicemembers. I have questions.

+ When did Congress approve such a plan?
+ Where is the money coming from?
+ How is it non-taxable? Did Congress vote to do that?
I'm sure there must be specific bill text.

We crunched the numbers for weeks and wouldn't ya know it? It came out to exactly $1,776.

The hypocrisy of the networks carrying this speech but turning down far more substantive speeches from Biden and Obama is off the charts.

There was zero news in this speech which merited primetime coverage by broadcasters. Absolutely zero.
