Had an older guy pull out in front of me today (in left lane, I was in right) and then suddenly cut in front of me missing my bumper by an inch. He stops in the road, gets out and accuses me of tailgating him. Buddy, time to turn in the license.
Voted in Victor today. They asked for my license. I love Ontario Co. Now if we could just build a wall and keep these Monroe Co Liberals from moving down here!
Today regular gas in Rochester at the corner of S Clinton & S Goodman is $3.99/gal. Over $4.25 everywhere else in the area. Don’t tell me station operators aren’t taking advantage of the public. I’m sure the first guy isn’t taking a loss.
The top 50% of NYS taxpayers (those making more than $35,000 adjusted gross income) pay 99.8% of NYS income taxes. The $100 energy credit cost each of those taxpayers an avg $182.98 to fund the $1 billion program. Robin Hood Hochul thanks you.

This is Dr. Joel Abraham. You might recognize him from Kathy Hochul’s latest campaign ad, “Wrecking Ball.”
Dr. Abraham is affiliated with Vassar Brothers Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, NY.
Let's take a look at how much taxpayer-funded revenue and government assistance his hospital receives.
- $453 MILLION in estimated annual Medicare and Medicaid revenue.
- $65 MILLION in allowed claims through New York State’s Empire Plan in 2023.
- $63.6 MILLION in federal COVID-19 relief funding.
- $3.75 MILLION in New York State capital grant awards.
ALSO...
69% of Vassar Brothers Medical Center's hospital admissions involve Medicare or Medicaid patients.
I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the hospital ranks in the BOTTOM 2% NATIONWIDE for emergency department visit times and 133rd out of 140 hospitals in New York State, making it the 8th slowest in the state.
Meanwhile...
- Susan Browning, President of Vassar Brothers Medical Center, receives $1.2 MILLION in annual compensation.
- Michael Dowling, former CEO of Northwell Health, received nearly $6 MILLION in annual compensation.
- Dr. John Murphy, former President and CEO of Nuvance Health, received over $5 MILLION in annual compensation.
So, while Dr. Abraham appears in Kathy Hochul’s campaign ad warning New Yorkers about Medicaid cuts, the hospital he’s affiliated with collects hundreds of millions annually through government-funded healthcare programs, its executives take home MILLIONS in compensation, and its emergency department ranks among the slowest in the state and nation...
Maybe @KathyHochul is the problem, not the solution?

New York's Kathy Hochul ranked worst governor in US as part of scathing new study trib.al/YRL6Nm2
After decades of Democrat rule, NYers live in the:
Highest taxed state
Highest Medicaid spending
Highest spending per capita
Highest spending per student with below avg results.
Worst tax competitiveness in nation
But still vote Blue because “Orangeman bad” 🤦🏻♂️
Insanity
We need the list. Would be very interesting to see if a Sheriff who has been very vocal about the lack of accountability in Albany will cross party lines and endorse her over Letitia. There are 55 elected Sheriff’s in NY. Which ones like the status quo?
Leaving ROC in the morning back to Aruba on @JetBlue Sad that @joey_frascati won’t be there this time to take a pic of takeoff. But hope you’re enjoying time with family in Italy, Joey!

🚨 JUST IN: Angel mom of Sheridan Gorman just BLEW UP on NY Gov. Kathy Hochul on national TV after Hochul claimed her state doesn't give sanctuary to illegal aliens
"She's a LIAR. It's LAUGHABLE...she's on camera saying how they will PROSECUTE the police if they call ICE!"
"Such a LIE. She should be ASHAMED of herself!"
She lost her DAUGHTER in Chicago. And New York's laws do the EXACT SAME THING
NY punishes police for going after criminal aliens and aids and abets those very criminals.
So the SAME THING that happened to Gorman can happen in New York, and Hochul knows it
NY should stop voting for this BS!
The people most impacted by the criminal justice system already have jobs. They’re called cops.

Kathy Hochul's High Taxes, Rising Utility Rates and plan for $4,000 a Year in Higher Electric, Heating and Gas Bills. It's insane.
In Nassau County, I cut property taxes by $150 million to keep money where it belongs: in your pocket.
As Governor, I will eliminate income taxes on your first $100,000 of income, slash utility bills in half, and deliver real property tax relief to make New York affordable.

Recent documentary on Rochester. Best in NYS at being the worse! Keep voting Blue! Maybe we can take the national title! Great job @CityRochesterNY

New York is at a crossroads. We cannot keep going down the same road and expect things to get better.
That’s why today I crossed the aisle and announced my endorsement of Bruce Blakeman for Governor.
We did it at Middle Village Bagels, because let’s be honest, it’s one of the best bagel spots in the state.
I’ll also be helping lead Democrats for Blakeman. I’ve been a Democrat my entire life, but party loyalty comes second to New York. This is about where our state is headed and whether we’re willing to change course before it’s too late.

After driving up electric bills 50% and hiking utility rates 48 times, Kathy Hochul’s one-time utility rebate checks are an insult.
New Yorkers don’t need another election-year gimmick. They need real relief.
When I am Governor, I will cut utility bills in half and make New York affordable.
