I saw this beautiful Red-tailed Hawk while I was running and I had to stop! Got some nice footage! @prospect_park @prospectPark @audubonsociety @BirdBrklyn #KeepBrooklynWild

@wickdchiq Maybe that’s unfair. Not sure Adams cut an increase in budget. Still, this was taking money allocated.

[Dave Firestone @DavidNFirestone]

@wickdchiq The original budget increase was supposed to be 543M and 6K teachers to lower class-size. He cut 421M and 5K teachers to balance the budget. Perhaps it is necessary, but this framing feels unfair. That is exactly what a normie Dem would do. It’s basically what Adams did to NYPL.

@YanniMars @GaryRWard @LastWordOnSpurs 💯 and that’s exactly the opposite of what has happened. Any company that doesn’t focus on their core competencies first, fails in this way.

If we had true high-speed rail, it would take longer to commute from Coney Island to Manhattan than it would to take the Acela from Philadelphia. Imagine how many housing shortages could be solved if Albany and Philadelphia were within an hour’s commute.

Good point 😅

@nyc311 I have… many times. This is still happening all the time.

[Dave Firestone @DavidNFirestone]

@nyc311 @CMShahanaHanif @RitaJosephNYC The flooding between Coney Island Ave. and Ocean Parkway is always terrible. Catch drains never cleared, basements flood. City must meaningfully solve this problem. This is after only .35 inches of rain. East 9th and Ave C.

[Dave Firestone @DavidNFirestone]

From walking around, talking to neighbors, and the Nextdoor app, sounds like they neglected to clear the storm catch basins all over #Brooklyn. Dangerous and irresponsible! Storm season is upon us. @nyc311 @ShahanaFromBK @RitaJosephNYC @NYCMayor

[Dave Firestone @DavidNFirestone]

This City is wildly unserious about flood prevention… Our block and basements flood all the time and somehow the storm drains remain uncleared. @nyc311 @ShahanaFromBK @RitaJosephNYC @NYCSanitation @NYCMayor

A MAJOR CHANGE TO CITY WORKER HEALTHCARE/ CBP on the verge to be announced.

Prepare for a fight rank and file! Even if some union bosses roll over.

Really sick of people acting like Biden losing will be some sort of punishment for him and the democratic elite when the vast majority of pain inflicted will be on marginalized communities
