Billionaire John Catsimatidis threatens to close Gristedes chain if socialist Zohran Mamdani elected NYC mayor
“Will Mamdani run the supermarkets with union help? When people start shoplifting, will he even have cops arrest them,” Catsimatidis pondered.

This is what happens when policy is made in response to loudmouths with moral outrage instead of facts. #EBikes aren't what's killing two people a week in #BikeNYC
Out for a run and had an Escalade fly by me at 50mph and it’s still wild that we’ve had this statewide panic about kids on e-bikes while it remains totally legal and accepted for kids to drive the equivalent of Sherman tanks!

I just passed a news stand, and noted a half dozen NYTimes, maybe ten NYDaily News, and a foot and a half high stack of NY Posts. This explains in part the screaming you hear in every borough about communists running for public office.

Trump announced today, seemingly at random, that he is cancelling fed funding for Gateway Tunnel, a tunnel for intercity & commuter trains under the Hudson River.
The motivation for the cancellation—which is likely to be contested—appears to be purely the president’s hatred of Sen Schumer.

Illegal parking everywhere is the main reason NYC's bike lanes/network always feels so half-assed #bikenyc
Our office released a new study highlighting rampant illegal parking across Downtown Brooklyn. Vehicles block sidewalks, crosswalks, bike lanes & loading zones - making it more dangerous for New Yorkers to get around the neighborhood.
