HOCHUL CONFIRMS talks to lure 2nd big chipmaker to CNY: ‘Micron will always be the first child…’ https://t.co/YZi7HKHFmY

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

Not happening.

[Bryan Lesswing @BryanLesswing]

An absurd & gross attack.
- Subway crime is at a 16-year low
- NYPD just reported the fewest shootings & murders through the first 9 months of a year in recorded history
- Violent crime hit a 10-year high under Blakeman
- He attacks the Gov for deploying Nat'l Guard at subway (!)

[Bernadette Hogan @bern_hogan]

GOP candidate for governor @NassauExec took the LIRR into Penn, rode the E to 53rd Street 7th Avenue where the fatal subway shooting happened this weekend.

Blakeman blames opponent @KathyHochul: says she should add more cops to platforms—though Hochul added more & split $ w city

Had a great time joining @CaseyJBortnick and @wfbor to break down the Governor's debate earlier this week.

Thanks to @TimW518 and @CapitalTonight for having me on.

La Nova would certainly be a... provocative... answer.

[Jon Campbell @JonCampbellNY]

I would actually be fascinated to see how Hochul would answer this Q.

If she says anything other than NYC, people there would riot. If she doesn't say Buffalo (which, truly, has my favorite pizza in the world), she offends her hometown. No easy way out.

[Bryan Lesswing @BryanLesswing]

Ranch.

[Jon Campbell @JonCampbellNY]

What is the true taste of Upstate New York? Wrong answers only.

Great Range foliage on the way up to Big Slide earlier today.

[Nantucket Current @ACKCurrent]

The nor’easter lashing Nantucket with wind and rain this weekend has uncovered the remains of a shipwreck along the island’s south shore.

The fragment is likely from the 19th century schooner Warren Sawyer, a wooden ship that wrecked near Miacomet Beach on December 22, 1884.

[Matthew Cappucci @MatthewCappucci]

The National Weather Service in Buffalo, New York oversees marine forecasts for the entire U.S. side of what, since 1641, has been known as Lake Ontario.

But the National Weather Service can't say "Lake Ontario" anymore – per President Trump's Executive Order 14422, it's Lake America or nothing.

Today, the Buffalo office got a bit... creative... in referring to "our eastern Great Lake."

No directives were broken. The lake was never named.

Buffalo vs. The World

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

Its early but 17-0 isnt out of the question

This morning, the Huson Highlands are deep in reflect.

Where cloud and land intersect.

But here I'm allotted only so many characters.

To share by verse and parameter.

So I will let no further minute pass; to instead gaze and inspect.

[Bryan Lesswing @BryanLesswing]

Digging deeper into the #s, @KathyHochul is crushing Blakeman on the issues NYers care about most:

- Housing
- Affordability
- Public safety

And that's after months of Blakeman ads. The Hochul campaign hasn't even hit the airwaves yet with their massive cash advantage.

.@KathyHochul saw the path early.

Historic gains up-and-down the ballot this past year don't happen by accident.

With record fundraising and smart leadership by Hochul campaign, @nydems are in the strongest position yet to keep flipping red-to-blue.

That's A LOT of eggs for pancakes topped with New York State maple syrup 🍁

[Bernadette Hogan @bern_hogan]

"None of the companies admitted wrongdoing under the settlements. But to settle the states’ claims, Cal-Maine, Versova and Hickman’s will collectively be on the hook for $3.3 million and 53 million eggs."
