Hate to break it to you but Murphy will roll over this guy. What's his name again? For one thing, his attack ads are pitiful. I don't even like Murphy because he's a corpo Dem but I guess Repubs can barely hate him for that.

Voters are angry at Biden for not being left enough. All the spending he's proposed are popular across the board and he's letting a couple of corpo corruptos hold back his agenda. Failing on minimum wage, immigration reform, these are the real reasons Biden is low on the polls.

Republicans will be lucky to survive the next 2 years in any level. They all seems to be still stuck on Trump's ass or whatever smelly hole he's spewing crap out of.

Tyranny? Don't you have a Jan 6 reunion to attend?

BTW, I heard AOC has helped donate 5 million dollars to a state where a lot of folks want her dead. She must be such a real bitch huh?

I didn't realize the VNA has that kind of power. Does that mean the developers have to put this project on hold? I was hoping to see this work get started. That building is currently an eye sore.

It's a frivolous lawsuit. A waste of money x2. VNA is gonna hire attorneys along with the city using tax dollars collected from VNA members.

Fulop is giving out abatements any more. We should be thankful for the ratables. But no. This is why we can't have nice things.

I noticed the nice lamp post that was in front of BattatavCafe is gone. Why isn?t the VNA using these resources to actually fix up and beautify their neighborhood? Do they do anything besides oppose every single development? Let?s not forget how their corrupt board went behind its own community?s back and opened up a secret back channel with the city to modify zoning in certain areas.

This group is wasting money on attorneys and frivolous lawsuits to stop one single extra story being built. Ridiculous

The biggest irony is that, in the immediate aftermath of the reval results, a TON of residents from The Village were aghast over the increase in tax levies for the residents of the area. You would think that promoting additional development and (and, thus, ratables) would be high on their list of priorities so that the tax burden is distributed among more people and, in turn, that tax levies (and the inevitable tax increase that will happen in the next few years) can be better absorbed.hl
Some people want their cake, and eat it too.

In case you just woke up. This city has been rapidly developing for 30 yrs and it has not helped tax increases much.

Laughable hearing the democrats worrying about voter suppression when they are endorsing mail-in voting process. Looking at the primary numbers for rejected ballots, it is a certainty that more registered voters will be disenfranchised through this process, than in previous years.

For the volume of ballots to be counted, there are just to many opportunities for mial-in process failure, starting with voter error completing the ballot. Much of it will be a human error, but some will be outright illegal like this lazy mail carrier.

And yet, the biggest issue will be Republicans trying to keep people from voting, with its supporters always being silent about it. From Abbott in TX only allowing one drop location for a county of five million, to them trying not to county anything that arrives after Election day, even if postmarked beforehand, due to them purposefully slowing down mail delivery.

Just hypocritical scum.

If you dont see an uptick in crime there is something wrong with you. The left (deblasio) has set back NYC for decades. The suburbs are booming!. You are blind.

Here we are 3 months later and this dystopian amount of crime and looting I kept hearing about where is it? I still see right wingers on FB posting that our cities are burning and only Trump can save us.

I've ridden over 120 miles through NYC the last 4 weekends (from the Heights) - throughout Queens/Brooklyn/Manhattan and haven't seen anything out of the ordinary, well during a pandemic, besides a depressingly long line at a food bank. Which was very sad.

The city, and country, are going to suffer if we don't get some serious stimulus passed - which the Fed is saying we need to go big on, and so are major Wall Street firms. Maybe we should tone down the rhetoric and get things done for everyone instead of falling prey to conservative propaganda.
