City Hall
Tension between the NYPD and minority neighborhoods is just as bad under Bloomberg as it was under Giuliani. [Lucy McKeon]
Bloomberg decided to support Scott Brown after the Massachusetts senator said he would oppose an NRA-sponsored piece of legislation. [Henry Goldman]
A Bloomberg spokesman wouldn't say whether the advocacy for more financial regulation by Brown's opponent, Elizabeth Warren, influenced his decision. [Justin Sink]
"In this sense, Bloomberg’s support for Brown isn’t really a sign of how independent he is as much as it is an indicator of how far removed Warren is from where most elite Democrats are on Wall Street issues." [Steve Kornacki]
"The first systematic look at the New York police department's response to Occupy Wall Street protests paints a damning picture of an out-of-control and aggressive organization that routinely acted beyond its powers." [Chitrangada Choudhury]

Andrew "Cesare" Cuomo arranges a "STROM" and everybody goes back to "WORK"
He has mastered the POWER of "The Gods" and we use lightning bolts to flex his muscles so beware all you who oppose him.
He is truly the "1984" Governor and maybe a "President"
So watch out TU and NYT you could be "NEXT"
