"Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday he was calling for a full investigation into Con Edison following a blackout in Brooklyn late Sunday night, stating there should be an “examination” as to whether the city needs a “new entity” to provide electricity going forward.
More than 53,000 customers in New York City didn’t have power Sunday night, the tail end of a weekend-long heat wave where temperatures were still above 90 degrees as of 9 p.m. The bulk of those power outages were in southeast Brooklyn, where Con Ed said more than 33,000 customers were without power as part of a “preemptive move” by the utility to “take those customers in southeast Brooklyn out of service in order to protect vital equipment and to help restore power as soon as possible.”"*

"BURLINGTON, VERMONT — Get ready to feel the Bern again. A movement to draft Bernie Sanders to run for president in 2020 is launching today, with the aim of building an organizational structure so the Vermont Senator can start campaigning at a moment’s notice.
“We have two goals,” Rich Pelletier, one of the four main organizers of Organizing For Bernie, tells Rolling Stone. “One, we want to show the support is there. The second is to begin to do the organizing that is going to need to happen for him to hit the ground running, by the time he announces — if he announces.”"*

A calling from a 5-2-0 area code who's this where you call from? It's me this time. I got when you said 502 I was like I'm sure that's me. no no 5-2-0. That's me. today yeah I'm a libertarian and I called in today to talk over Emma. no not really it's Valerie from Arizona I talked to Emma yesterday. Yeah wow, look at that. Yeah, I have nothing to do, that's some luck. well, I called in before he even announced he opened up the phones today. gotcha. well done. Announcing that he had just done it. I wanted to offer a fun vocabulary word since it's the fun half and it's casual Friday. And I think you'll like it. it's repugnance instead of republicans it's r-e-p-u-g-n-i-c-a-n-s. All the kids love it. It's very popular. Totally going to happen. I like that. I think back to the day when I did radio. I was on a real kick to mispronounce things because I found it to be. I remember listening to Rush Limbaugh and he would refer to the school as a school. And he had a couple other you got demon craps and stuff like that. Well, he wouldn't do that. I mean that's what maybe Mark Levin does. But Limbaugh would just choose specific words to just pronounce weirdly. and I was like I couldn't understand why he did that. and then I started pronouncing bill first who was the senate majority leader at that time after the Terri Schiavo thing where he was he diagnosed Terri Schiavo who was on a basically a respirator and was in a vegetative state as being you know able to be resuscitated. and so I started to refer to him as bill freist. and as it was just like sort of like some vague notion about christ. like the scroll thing never really like for you know I think for limbo it was like he was against public schools. so he called school. and one day my sister knew somebody who worked for amy goodman. and and and I know a little bit from back in those days. and but my sister knew somebody who worked for amy goodman at the time and apparently she came in one day into work and said why does sam cedar pronounce it a bill for christ. and I realize that's why you do that because when you mispronounce things in some way it sticks in people's craw a little bit.

"ALBANY — There's no easy path for New York to win a legal fight with the U.S. Census Bureau over its narrow loss of a Congressional seat, but Gov. Andrew Cuomo said this week he's looking at “legal options” nevertheless.
New York's governor didn't spell out what legal actions he is considering, but said he thinks New York's loss of a seat could be chalked up to a “minor” counting mistake in the 2020 census.
A census expert estimated Monday that if the census had counted just 89 more people in New York, it could have kept 27 House seats, assuming all other state totals remained the same.
“Do I think it was accurate to within 89? No.” Cuomo told reporters at a Tuesday press conference. "And we’re looking at legal options. Because when you’re talking about 89. That could be a minor mistake in counting.”"
