In January, our administration inherited a $12 billion budget deficit — a fiscal crisis greater than the Great Recession.
Today I am proud to announce that our balanced budget has cleared the final step and passed the New York City Council.
We balanced the budget by taxing the rich and making government more efficient. We did not balance this budget on the backs of working people, and we never will.
Every year that follows will build on these principles: Honest budgeting. Fiscal discipline. Transparent government. And an unwavering belief that working people deserve a government that delivers for them every day.
@johnacquilano@BobLonsberry But please someday take one step off your high horse and stop being a moron and falling for the division that the media is pushing. Americans need to unify.
@hessyy95@BobLonsberry I can assure you’re not old enough to even know when this Palestine issue even started
you’re probably one of those guys that wants reparations for the slaves too…and there wasn’t a single black person alive during the slave era
genocide??? go get a cup of coffee you dope
@johnacquilano@BobLonsberry I can read a history book. The Israel Palestine conflict stems from the Balfour Pact. Kids are hungry here, people lack healthcare, yet you focus on a conflict halfway across the world. No living ex-slaves remain, so no interest in reparations. America First.
@hessyy95@BobLonsberry You completely missed the plot.
Democrats and Muslims are terrorizing Jewish Americans in the largest Jewish community in greater Rochester.
My grandparents lived right around the corner on Runnymede Ct. Thankfully they are not around to witness this atrocity.
The Supreme Court has allowed TPS for Haitians to end, putting families in Springfield and communities across the country at risk of being sent back to a country in chaos. Congress can and should extend these protections.
Powerful: Bills veteran CB Darius Slay says he does NOT allow his teammates or fans to call him by his legal first name Darius.
Slay only allows people to call him "Slay" or "Big Play Slay".
His legal name is to be spoken only by family ❤️
Give Mandami credit. He is doing exactly what he said he would do when elected. He is turning New York into a socialist/communist anti American city by getting “politicians” like Darializa Avila Chevalier elected. Here is just a sampling of things Chevalier has said, tweeted or done. (This is not an onion article. These are all facts)
Founded a group at Columbia with the express goal of overthrowing western society
Called all white women ugly colonizers while criticizing interracial relationships
Wishes she could wipe her ass with a the American flag
Waved a Hamas flag the day after October 7th attacks
Wants no borders
Wants to abolish the police
Wants to abolish prisons
Against all deportations. Clarified that even if a non citizen murders or rapes somebody deportation is immoral
Said all of the United States is on stolen Native American land
Things she has not done in her career. Had a job.
On the brightside though at least she never said America deserved 9/11. (At least that we are aware of yet) Unfortunately the other candidate Mamdani endorsed Aber Kawas did say that. And got elected. In NYC. What a world
I can't afford to go to a World Cup game. Yet all these fans from 3rd world countries are flying over, staying in jacked up overpriced hotels, and then spending $5k per ticket. Are we all being told lies? Is America poor or is it just me?
@MSV81794143@Simondagrump@13WHAM Did you read the article where it said that he had things in the way of fire exits and things hanging from sprinkler lines?
“including guitars hanging from the sprinkler system, the use of extension cords and items stored near fire exits and stairwells.”
@hessyy95@Simondagrump@13WHAM Are you making up worst case scenarios or was that the actual problem and why they shut him down?? Do you know the facts??
Bobby Youst, owner of Whiskeys Upper Deck at the Port of Rochester, says the city unfairly targeted his business after officials shut it down early Saturday while hundreds of people were inside, citing over code violations from a pop-up inspection just days prior.

@Simondagrump@13WHAM Fire exits being blocked is an immediate jeopardy to life. Frankly if his fire exits were blocked he deserved to be shut down. Google the Iroquois theater fire
@hessyy95@13WHAM I agree and I heard of three or four minor violations that were repaired w/in a few hours and certainly not warranted to shut a business down .
I mean , isn’t there usually an inspection then violations exposed and the owner has X amount of days to make the repairs ?
People who use the term neo-con are mostly ignoramuses. They’ve no idea of the history of the word or its meaning. A neo-con was a Democrat who rejected the leftwing extremism and pacifism of their party and became mostly conservative Republicans who backed Ronald Reagan. Their intellectuals played an important role in helping to defeat the Soviet Union.
For the Neanderthals who keep throwing around the term because they’re looking to create a pejorative to smear people who they’re incapable of substantively engaging, you’re proving to be good little Marxist propagandists like Bernie Sanders.
