    @ProfD yes, new york state doesn't have term limits for legislators or the governor though some have been trying to implement that. Hochul herself tried in 2022 to get term limits for governor/lietenant governor/comptroller/attorney general but these positions are like thrones and many don't like the idea of them being term limited. new york city has term limits for mayor + city council

    Coming Soon July 9 moon closest to south pole in its orbit around the earth, runs low. First commercial outdoor theater in the U.S.A. in Mount Vernon Gardens New York City 1800. From "historical info 1" link below: [ In 1800, though, chef-turned-theatre manager, Joseph Corre, opened the first *commercial* outdoor theatre on the northwest corner of Leonard Street and Broadway in New York City. It was called The Theatre at Mount Vernon Gardens and was situated within Corre’s private outdoor park and tavern. ...The performance advertised for the first evening was entitled Miss in Her Teens; or the Medley of Lovers. Playing the leading roles were some of New York’s top performers, including Joseph Jefferson I and Lewis Hallam, Jr., both on loan from the nearby Park Theatre–which was on summer hiatus. ] historical info 1 https://www.hhhistory.com/2018/07/mount-vernon-gardens-outdoor-theatre.html historical info 2 https://daytoninmanhattan.blogspot.com/2017/10/the-lost-white-conduit-house-broadway.html 2022 examples https://newyorktheater.me/2022/07/08/outdoor-theater-in-new-york-city/ Leonard and Broadway, where it was located , on Google Maps today [ 40.716949, -74.004211 ] https://maps.app.goo.gl/G4uXo9WMMjV1hWY46 10 Full Moon , called a buck cause male deer antlers were in full bloom 11 Pluto Moon conjunction RM WORK CALENDAR what do I think of what is commonly called A.I. ?

    @Pioneer1 Because it is possible. You seem to think Mamdani doesn't fit New York city or NY State or the USA but the USA has a long history of socialism in parts. And more importantly, MAmdani has an engaged voting group. No not the whole city. I didn't say Mamdani will win, but MAmdani can win. We will see how the numbers play out. well I argue, he can explain a plan that can provide more money into new york city, it can't be taxing the rich cause he doesn't control that, the governor or state legislature of new york state does and the legislature will never agree to his tax desires nor will the governor be able to because so many cities in new york state will be against, but the mayor does have powers and i think if he focuses on what mayors can do and proposes a radical agenda, he can convince and win it. But he has to be daring in that way and based on his legislation in the new york state assembly he isn't as daring or radical as some suggest. @ProfD That was three terms of bloomberg.Bloomberg let the NYPD be unpunished for their inefficiency, and he was a huge advocate for the real estate industry of the city. Those two things gave bloomberg huge voting supports. NY city has a high end real estate market but people forget how many mid to low end realtors are in the city full of black folk/women/asians/muslims and bloomberg aided all of them in their agenda against rentors. The NYPD loved that he simply didn't demand better of the NYPD whenever they operated poorly. And they voted for bloomberg as a block. The fact that bloomberg also employed many in the private media industry in the city helped. BUT, the rentors of the city hated bloomberg, the people the NYPD abused and got away with abusing hated bloomberg. The public media sector , independent, also had issue with bloomberg. So with his third term up, a huge energy for someone who would freeze the rents/tell the NYPD to clean up their act/support the public sector bureaucracies of the city existed and de blasio, former agent for mayor dinkins was the most aligned candidate to that set. But, de blasio automatically became enemy to the nypd who hate any mayor calls the nypd wrong. the real estate industry , high + low end, hated the rent freeze. and the private sector didn't like the lack of energy for private sector activity so...adams came in. Pro NYPD to the core. supports the real estate industry, and in that, supports what I call the black financial aristocrats of the city who are more in the number than ever before. He did his city of yes thing which is a huge rezoning plan that is massive. that gave the real estate industry the ability to slot buildings in every space in the city, will allow for more mixed used buildings to save the skyscrapers from being money pits. But, really isn't addressing the lack of jobs or industry in the city. Which is where mamdani has strength. Mamdani 's base are the just turned adults who are in a city devoid of jobs, devoid of opportunity, and with ever increasing cost of living. The reality is, even if Mamdani losses, his movement will win in four years with the way the city is being managed. It isn't the fault of anyone past 1980 but many of the big cities in the usa are mismanaged but they have been mismanaged since the 1950s. NYC used to have every single industry, used to be a hub for all things, then came the mid 1900s and the white suburban movement and the business flight. Those two things were mismanaged by nyc and the other big cities in the usa. So much so that by the 1970s the usa economy couldn't survive being based on gold and had to use its own debt as a currency based on its militaristic power to finance itself, and it worked but it is not 2025. I restate, MAmdani's campaign isn't about the issues that propelled de blasio. Mamdani's campaign is about a legacy of poor fiscal capitalistic management that has come to bite not only nyc but the greater usa, it is just that nyc is ahead of the curve. the usa wouldn't allow black workers into unions or wouldn't allow unions and allowed firms to flee the country than deal with unions, then allowed regions of the country, suburbs, to live like leeches on cities , who were allowed to be the dumping ground for all the non white folk as well as all the former towns folk as the countries industrial labor base was moved over seas for cheap labor. And now the robot worker era is coming and people already don't have a job but the global financial system means that markets are based on global standings so the rent in the cities can keep rising even if the populace in citiies is more and more unemployed. Even Hochul, the governor, tried to make a paycheck go out to all new yorkers and yet so many disliked the idea on all sides. why? the labor outlook isn't good. The only reason can be the fear some have that the usa will have to now give monthly paychecks to keep the system of fiscal capitalism afloat. But did and does not the usa hinder the native american community from owning businesses on reservations? did and does not the usa hinder black towns/ or regions in cities from owning a business? did and does not the usa hinder many women from equal wages when they are doing the same job? The USA through its military scenario before commonly called world war 2 or strength after said war, has always been able to maintain an internally inequal fiscal capitalistic system, but now in 2025 with the most powerful military, its internal system needs adjustment and the flexibility to change as needed doesn't have a simple legal pathway through. The constitution wasn't built with modern usa in mind. It was built assuming only white men would be able to have a full life in the usa and all others had part lives as the behest of white men. It was built assuming the usa would never be in the business of supporting economies of foreign countries as a side strategy to keep intersoveriegn agreements/arrangements. It was built assuming the usa would never have an immigration policy that allows an open door for the world's fiscal poor. so, Mamdani can win, but most of what he says he wants to do,he has no way. He has to adjust his goals, cause if he doesn't adjust his goals and he wins, he will join AOC + Obama and I find both of them make voters less interested.When you look at obama's exit, the people who voted eight years ago were not enthused. I argue the bronx has become worse voting wise since AOC. so...

    Moments with Mani said I have a question for any black man who reads this: You guys have a tendency to talk about possibly falling in love with a white woman or making statements like “not all white women are racist”. My question to you is, do you believe white women will go out of their way to defend you and show the world that you’re a good man to their racist/ignorant counterparts? I’m not throwing shots, I’ve been commonly seeing black men pedestalize white women while downplaying black women over anti black stereotypes for the past few years and now I have questions… https://www.tumblr.com/momentswithmani/788197731691839488/i-have-a-question-for-any-black-man-who-reads?source=share MY ANSWER I will be blunt, no black man I know of offline , whom I have talked to, ever talked to me saying they will possibly fall in love with a white woman or said not all white women are racist. I have heard black men offline say not all white people are racist. So offline I haven't been privy to the tendencies you have. As online communication is mostly strangers but with a larger populace it can not be compared to offline. but in my online life among many male black artist I have not read the tendencies you describe. Now to answer your question. I have no experience with a white woman at any level of intimate and only as distant colleagues. So I have never been in a position to warrant or need a white woman to defend or present me to the greater white populace. having said that, I have seen in NYC, not all of the USA, just NYC, various individuals from one type of a race defend another individual from another type of the same race from a larger populace. I have seen a jew defend a muslim against those in the jewish community suggesting said muslim is anti jewish. I have seen a white man defend a black man from claims from many in the white community that said black man is bad. What is my point to conclude my answer. I have no reason based on my personal life or what I have seen to believe a white women will defend a black man's character from various in the white populace claiming otherwise. Is it possible for a white woman to defend a black man? yes. It is positively probable a white woman will defend a black man's character, something to bet on, something common? no and I argue never. My black environment offline or online luckily doesn't have a large number of black people who are whitephiles.

At nearly 900 pages, the legislation is a sprawling collection of tax breaks, spending cuts and other Republican priorities, including new money for national defense and deportations. Democrats united against the legislation, but were powerless to stop it as long as Republicans stayed united. The Senate passed the bill, with Vice President JD Vance casting the tiebreaking vote. The House passed an earlier iteration of the bill in May with just one vote to spare. It passed the final version 218-214. Here's the latest on what's in the bill and when some of its provisions go into effect. Republicans say the bill is crucial because there would be a massive tax increase after December when tax breaks from Trump's first term expire. The legislation contains about $4.5 trillion in tax cuts. The existing tax rates and brackets would become permanent under the bill, solidifying the tax cuts approved in Trump's first term. It temporarily would add new tax deductions on tip, overtime and auto loans. There's also a $6,000 deduction for older adults who earn no more than $75,000 a year, a nod to his pledge to end taxes on Social Security benefits. It would boost the $2,000 child tax credit to $2,200. Millions of families at lower income levels would not get the full credit. A cap on state and local deductions, called SALT, would quadruple to $40,000 for five years. It's a provision important to New York and other high tax states, though the House wanted it to last for 10 years. There are scores of business-related tax cuts, including allowing businesses to immediately write off 100% of the cost of equipment and research. Proponents say this will boost economic growth. The wealthiest households would see a $12,000 increase from the legislation, and the bill would cost the poorest people $1,600 a year, mainly due to reductions in Medicaid and food aid, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office analysis of the House's version. The bill would provide some $350 billion for Trump's border and national security agenda, including for the U.S.-Mexico border wall and for 100,000 migrant detention facility beds, as he aims to fulfill his promise of the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history. Money would go for hiring 10,000 new Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, with $10,000 signing bonuses and a surge of Border Patrol officers, as well. The goal is to deport some 1 million people per year. To help pay for it, immigrants would face various new fees, including when seeking asylum protections. For the Pentagon, the bill would provide billions for ship building, munitions systems, and quality of life measures for servicemen and women, as well as $25 billion for the development of the Golden Dome missile defense system. The Defense Department would have $1 billion for border security. To help partly offset the lost tax revenue and new spending, Republicans aim to cut back on Medicaid and food assistance for people below the poverty line. Republicans argue they are trying to rightsize the safety net programs for the population they were initially designed to serve, mainly pregnant women, the disabled and children, and root out what they describe as waste, fraud and abuse. The package includes new 80-hour-a-month work requirements for many adults receiving Medicaid and food stamps, including older people up to age 65. Parents of children 14 and older would have to meet the program’s work requirements. There's also a proposed new $35 co-payment that can be charged to patients using Medicaid services. More than 71 million people rely on Medicaid, which expanded under Obama's Affordable Care Act, and 40 million use the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Most already work, according to analysts. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that 11.8 million more Americans would become uninsured by 2034 if the bill became law and 3 million more would not qualify for food stamps, also known as SNAP benefits. Republicans are looking to have states pick up some of the cost for SNAP benefits. Currently, the federal government funds all benefit costs. Under the bill, states beginning in 2028 will be required to contribute a set percentage of those costs if their payment error rate exceeds 6%. Payment errors include both underpayments and overpayments. But the Senate bill temporarily delays the start date of that cost-sharing for states with the highest SNAP error rates. Alaska has the highest error rate in the nation at nearly 25%, according to Department of Agriculture data. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, had fought for the exception. She was a decisive vote in getting the bill through the Senate. Republicans are proposing to dramatically roll back tax breaks designed to boost clean energy projects fueled by renewable sources such as energy and wind. The tax breaks were a central component of President Joe Biden's 2022 landmark bill focused on addressing climate change and lowering health care costs. Democratic Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden went so far as to call the GOP provisions a “death sentence for America’s wind and solar industries and an inevitable hike in utility bills.” A tax break for people who buy new or used electric vehicles would expire on Sept. 30 of this year, instead of at the end of 2032 under current law. Meanwhile, a tax credit for the production of critical materials will be expanded to include metallurgical coal used in steelmaking. A number of extra provisions reflect other GOP priorities. The bill creates a new children's savings program, called Trump Accounts, with a potential $1,000 deposit from the Treasury. The Senate provided $40 million to establish Trump’s long-sought “National Garden of American Heroes.” There's a new excise tax on university endowments and a new tax on remittances, or transfers of money that people in the U.S. send abroad. The tax is equal to 1% of the transfer. A $200 tax on gun silencers and short-barreled rifles and shotguns was eliminated. One provision bars for one year Medicaid payments to family planning providers that provide abortions, namely Planned Parenthood. Another section expands the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act, a hard-fought provision from GOP Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri, for those impacted by nuclear development and testing. Billions would go for the Artemis moon mission and for the exploration of Mars, while $88 million is earmarked for a pandemic response accountability committee. Additionally, a provision would increase the nation's debt limit, by $5 trillion, to allow continued borrowing to pay already accrued bills. The Senate overwhelmingly revolted against a proposal meant to deter states from regulating artificial intelligence. Republican governors across the country asked for the moratorium to be removed and the Senate voted to do so with a resounding 99-1 vote. A provision was thrown in at the final hours that will provide $10 billion annually to rural hospitals for five years, or $50 billion in total. The Senate bill had originally provided $25 billion for the program, but that number was upped to win over holdout GOP senators and a coalition of House Republicans warning that reduced Medicaid provider taxes would hurt rural hospitals. The amended bill also stripped out a new tax on wind and solar projects that use a certain percentage of components from China. Altogether, the Congressional Budget Office projects that the bill would increase federal deficits over the next 10 years by nearly $3.3 trillion from 2025 to 2034. Or not, depending on how one does the math. Senate Republicans are proposing a unique strategy of not counting the existing tax breaks as a new cost because those breaks are already “current policy.” Republican senators say the Senate Budget Committee chairman has the authority to set the baseline for the preferred approach. Under the alternative Senate GOP view, the bill would reduce deficits by almost half a trillion dollars over the coming decade, the CBO said. Democrats say this is “magic math” that obscures the true costs of the tax breaks. Some nonpartisan groups worried about the country's fiscal trajectory are siding with Democrats in that regard. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget says Senate Republicans were employing an “accounting gimmick that would make Enron executives blush.” URL https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/whats-in-trumps-big-bill-that-passed-congress-and-will-soon-become-law/ar-AA1HVdHv?ocid=BingNewsSerp

In the case of diddy it is happening again. Brian J Howard I think Ann's point is that if these women had been white the legal system , media would had approached diddy stronger in all earnest, and I concur. When I think of that video, I can't imagine a black man hitting a white woman like diddy hit the woman in the video and the legal system not going really hard on him Ann-Michelle Thurmond I wonder your ideas about the lawyers for the government, did they overreach? Racketeering + sex trafficking are pretty strong allegations, if they would had focused on assault, wouldn't this case be over long ago. Ann-Michelle Thurmond right, but i argue overreach is a serious injustice to the woman. a video exist of this man beating her. that is assault. jail time case closed. at least in my simple eyes. but, the lawyers aren't thinking about simple straight forward justice, the lawyers want to put their great grand kids through college, and have an inheritance for them. For that you make huge allegations knowing fully well they will not stick but both sets of lawyers will get paid by diddy . It is the same with weinstein. cosby, depp, et cetera. I think women should speak against the lawyers for the various women. These men have abused women but I doubt they are the heads of a branch of camorra. Wouldn't women wants these men in jail for what they did to women than not in jail but on hard times financially from all the legal fees and excommunicado in their industries? Maybe women want it all, jail + the debt+the excommunicado, but I argue jail teaches the best lesson over debt + excommunicado. What say you ann?

    A Contest With Prizes - Best Fake Scam My Entry I really love your artwork. But I don't know if you have the courage to be a daring artist. I have been hired by collecttrumpcards to get artist of quality and daring to help finance the Presidents causes through 2026 /2027/2028 Trump digital trading cards. If your card garners enough wealth for the presidents fight to free the American people from the shackles of immigrant agents trying to fill the government or traitors of the usa who have forgotten the hard work of their forebears who built the land of the free, you will get a trip to Mar A Lago and be one of the few who learns of the presidents plans to continue leadership after January 20th 2029.

    someone asked Sinners - Evil Cannot happen without your consent...true or false the following is my reply Well... as a writer... when I look at Coogler + Peele, the two most commercially successful black writer-directors in the last twenty years [commercial success defined as profit earned from films, not creative assessment] both make one and done films, no sequels. Both don't go into deep public analysis of their films, let audiences make assessment videos. Both tell stories dealing with the black experience having global implications but from a personal space. They remind me of August wilson's plays where the outer world is present, potent but the plays setting is a small black space. Get Out- Black man taking white woman to see her clan. US-Black family on a vacation to country house Nope- Black siblings on a ranch Sinners- Black blues joint in the south Booth Peele + Coogler's movies have aspects of spirituality[ The sunken place, the doppelganger, the horse whisperer, Hoodoo] . Religion by name is a spirituality tied to a book. Spirituality is anything involving the spirit of a person , regardless of whether that involvement is technological [ psychological tools, cloning], a skill[communicating to nonhumans, horses or aliens] , a specific tradition passed down[ hoodoo] When I think of Within our gates from oscar micheaux [ written and directed] blood of jesus from spencer williams [ written and directed] Ceddo + Emitai from Ousmane Sembene [ written and directed] Daughters of the Dust from julie dash [ written and directed] The reality is most Black writer-directors tend to make historical fictions or historical dramas [Malcolm/Boyz in the hood/Black girl/Superfly/dead presidents/down in the delta(I can't believe maya angelou didn't edit or manipulate it) or similar]. But the works of Peele + Coogler follow the least traveled road of said list of artist using worlds with fantasy elements.[ may it be science fiction or spiritual heritage] And that harkens back to the classic Black descended of enslaved storytelling or heritages from before the war between the states, championed by Zora Neale Hurston. Now to answer the question you asked "Evil Cannot happen without your consent" in the context of the film sinners. Well, one thing , we don't know how the white vampires were made? The film doesn't go into in great detail nor does it need to. All we know is the lead white vampire is old, their are rules. But as the black twins prove, the goodness of ones actions is not bounded to humanity. Vampires can be good as his twin proves at the end, if you define goodness by non verbal actions and not race[whether race is defined as a categorization or ranking or order based on religion/language/gender/blood lineage/phenotype or appearance/age/philosophical adherence/ or other determinant]. To restate Vampires are not inherently evil in the film, thus their entry into a place can not be deemed welcoming evil, if you take the whole story into account. In parallel, in the film humans are not inherently good. And the KKK are not coming with the consent of the juke joint. So from my point of view, in the film itself, your question is not answered. And what is the contrapositive to your question. Good can happen with your consent? Well define good. Are humans good while vampires evil? is goodness defined by non verbal action. but can't one action be deemed good or evil based on its specifics. OR about the opposite. Good cannot happen without your consent? again define good and in my view Coogler isn't offering viewpoints but not being ironclad in opinions. Steinfeld some say is yella, some say is white, by one drop is black, but their is a long heritage of blacks in the usa who are visibly white ala Charles W. Chesnutt. Away from writing.... Your posiiton as a black christian, i find thought provoking. I am not christian, but my views on black christianity are various. If I have one wish for black christians, it is for black christians to accept the many branches of black christianity, which I don't think black christians tend to do. But to your question, Evil Cannot happen without your consent, I think based on your definitions, the answer is yes. For me, away from writing, the first question for me is always elements in the question. What is good? what is evil? what is consent? I comprehend positivity or negativity. I know what can be mostly positive or mostly negative, but nothing in my mind is all negative or all positive. and for me what people refer to as good is a supposed all positive, or evil is a supposed all negative. And I prefer to use the word grant over consent. What is granted is complicated. Sometimes one is granting things absent their knowledge or awareness, the raising of children proves this. Philosophically or spiritually, I can only answer your question, Evil Cannot happen without your consent, once it is restructured with more definition to what is evil or what is consent. If you ask me, Vampires cannot interact to non vampires absent non vampirical grant? I will say no because Vampires I define as any creature that absorbs leechlike from another. Do the gnomes who suck souls require grants? Do the succubi require grants? I don't think so to either. Some types of Vampires do but not all. If you ask me, those with negative intent cannot happen absent anothers grant? I will say not usually. Negative intent can be from many and rarely requires the targets permission. If you ask me, can human blood craving Vampires enter the home of others absent a grant? I say both. historically from ancient times, some of said vampires have been blockaded from entering the homes of others , not all but some, arguably many.
