If you believe this is happening in schools, you’re a fucking idiot.

Most of my Schoharie County neighbors, you voted for this. I feel bad for those with diesel vehicles. Donnie did warn me if I voted for Kamala gas prices would soar and darn it, he was RIGHT!!
Gas prices across New York are averaging $4.38 a gallon today, and the North Country is paying some of the highest prices in the state.
The real gut punch is coming this winter. Home heating oil is already running well above last year's prices here, and for a typical household that could mean over a thousand dollars extra just to stay warm.
This is a rural cost of living crisis, and it's going to hit working families just above the income cutoff for HEAP and LIHEAP the hardest. We need an immediate boost in LIHEAP funding, and a real plan to get it to families before winter hits.

For those keeping count, Trump has now promised:
- $5000 if Rs win in November
- $5000 from DOGE
- $2000 in tariff dividends
- $1000 in "savings" from expired ACA subsidies
And delivered NONE of it.
While you can't afford your groceries, he's taunting you with $13,000 in empty promises.

BREAKING: During his speech today, Donald Trump recounted helping save Titanic victims: “I saved more people than anybody, many people, the best people. I said, ‘Turn left, Captain. Very simple. Very easy.’ He didn’t listen. I know icebergs. Nobody knows icebergs better than me.”

Breaking News: A whistle-blower at the U.S. Postal Service said Trump officials were defying court orders with a “secretive, rushed” effort affecting voting by mail. nyti.ms/460WZa8

A whistleblower is warning of a “catastrophic failure” in our mail-ballot system—all because Trump is turning USPS into a voter suppression machine.
Vote-by-mail is safe and secure. Trump himself voted by mail just last month.
He knows he’s failing the American people, so he’s doing everything he can to rig the midterms.

15yrs ago today Tropical Storm Irene produced significant impacts across eastern NY & western New England with record setting rainfall & flooding. What do you remember from Irene? Visit weather.gov/safety/flood for flood safety.
ALT The graphic was created by the NWS in Albany, NY for the 15th Anniversary of Tropical Storm Irene that occurred on August 28th 2011. Text includes, “Irene was the first tropical system to impact the entire Albany county warning and hydrological service areas since Floyd, September 16-17, 1999. 3 to 12 inches of rain fell August 27-29, 2011 with isolated 18 inches in the eastern Catskills. Devastating flash flooding occurred in the Schoharie Valley, eastern Catskills and southern Vermont due to wet antecedent conditions and intense hourly rainfall rates. In the Albany hydro service area, 13 river gauges had record floods.” Pictures show the radar image when the heaviest rainfall was over eastern New York and western New England and the path that Hurricane then Tropical Storm Irene took. Several other pictures show flooding across eastern New York and the Schoharie Creek at Gilboa Dam new record for the flood stage (Major) at this site (1137.73 feet).
