Broadway Musicians Announce Strike Authorization

This Follows on the Heels of Actors Equity doing the Same

October 13, 2025 / Manhattan NYC. The American Federation Musicians Local 802 [AFM Local 802] announced that their 1,000 plus membership has authorized a strike against the Broadway League which represents the producers and landlords of Broadway shows. Their contract expired August 31, 2025. Actors Equity, which represents 51,000 actors and stage managers in the entire U.S. [NYC is in the Eastern region], authorized a strike on October 1, 2025 [see short report below] following the expiration of their contract on September 28, 2025. Both unions are asking for pay increases and improved health benefits.

The Broadway League broke box office records last year [2024 - 2025 season] taking in $1.89 billion. The Broadway League represents 41 active theaters in NYC. A few shows would continue to go on, if there were a strike, as a couple of plays are being performed by touring companies, and a couple other plays do not have contracts with the Actors Equity or AFM Local 802. Also, Off Broadway Shows in NYC would continue as they also do not have contracts with the unions. But that said, at least 27 or more of NYC's biggest and most famous theaters, would temporarily close, pending the completion of negotiations.

In spite of box office revenue records, some Broadway Shows lost money, as production costs are also high. The following url will take you to a well done report on the situation.

Governor Hochul Expands Drought Warning in New York State

Climate Change Desiccating NYS Along with the Rest of the Nation

October 8, 2025 / Albany NYS. Drought Conditions in NYS Grow Worse, as Governor Hochul rolls out the current Drought Warning to ten additional counties [1st & 2nd links below].

Drought Warning is the second of the four level warning system, and some believe that some of the counties may soon become captive to a Drought Emergency. If a county is moved from Drought Warning to Drought Emergency water use is mandatorily curtailed. If a county is moved to Drought Disaster, the access to water is even further curtailed [3rd link below].

TV News again fails to Inform. While a great deal of TV News talk regarding climate change has focused on flooding, the real damage thus far comes from hurricanes and high winds [4th link below].

But what's worse, is that TV News continues to fail to inform the American public by looking backward - out of the rearview mirror - as if that's the future ... when it is not. The real climate change disaster is on its way and it's about lack of water, not too much of it [5th link]. If you think inflation is bad now, wait until farmers crops start drying out before harvest time. Pay attention to which TV Network News outlets mislead you, by labeling climate changes, the 'climate hoax', as well as those who promote the use and government subsidies given to the fossil fuel industry.

Trump Administration Appears to Use Government Agency Websites to Disinform about Climate Change

This Appears to be in Exchange for [Quid Pro Quo?] the $445 Million Investment made by Oil & Gas in Trump and the GOP's 2024 Campaigns

Is Trump's Aggressive Stance Toward Venezuela about Drugs or Oil & Gas Profits?

The Trump Administration has been changing the narrative about the real causes of climate change and the real impact of it, ostensibly to please his donors. Most notably there have been changes on the National Institute of Health [NIH] website, denying climate change. It seems highly plausible they are changing the narrative to please Trump and Republican oil and gas campaign funders, who donated almost a half billion to Trump and Republicans' campaigns in 2024 election alone [1st & 2nd links].

It is also believed that Trump's oil and gas campaign funders have been pushing him to aggressively put the screws to Venezuela, in order to impede Venezuela's ability to compete in the global oil and gas markets. Trump's attacks on boats in the Caribbean may have nothing to do with illicit drugs, as the Trump Administration has failed to produce any evidence of such. Republcian Senate Majority Leader, John Thune, continues to provide cover for Trump's lawless actions [7th, 8th & 9th links].

NYC News - Ballot Proposals are a Developer Power Grab that Concentrates Power so It is Easier to Manipulate

https://www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2025/09/council-weakening-housing-proposals-survive-board-elections/408000/

While Governor Hochul parroted the real estate developers' talking point [not plural], stating it's 'to solve the [25 year] affordable housing crisis', her statement was tepid [4th link]. But an outright NO would have been better. But all pols in NYC, NYS and the USA are challenged by the Supreme Court Citizens United decision which essentially allows the super rich billionaires to limitlessly spend to buy pols and elections, so that once in office, the pols will do whatever they want in order to get the funding to get re-elected. That said, Hochul appears to have tried to strike a balance versus press releases I've seen from the real estate industry pushing the changes in their favor.

It's worth noting that the billionaires, real estate developers, and the pols they financially support - including Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo - have been working to solve the affordability crisis in NYC for the past twenty-five years - with something close to ZERO success. To keep letting these same people, keep feeding at the public trough [via public land transfers, tax breaks, cheap financing, government subsidies, favorable zoning changes et al], with no end in sight, makes no sense at all.

Albany NYS News - Governor Hochul's Tepid Statement Supporting NYC Charter Revision Ballot Measures

https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/statement-governor-kathy-hochul-108

Vote No on #2, #3, #4 & #6 if you want to protect yourself, your community and your children from even more NYC Oligarchy money and power grabs by billionaires and real estate developers. Eric Adams has already done enough damage to New Yorkers' ability to exercise their community rights, so don't let him hit us one last time, with this donor power grab, on his way out onto the street.

NYC Mayoral Debates Begin Next Week

And Then There were Three

October 10, 2025 / Manhattan & Queens NYC. The Campaign Finance Board cancelled the NYC Comptroller and the NYC Public Advocate Debates because not enough candidates qualified to meet the threshhold [two]. The good news is that the two Mayoral Debates will continue as scheduled. Thus, on Thursday, October 16, 2025 at 7 pm [WNBC] and on Wednesday , October 22, 2025 at 7 pm [NY1] there will be debates among the three remaining Mayoral candidates - Mamdani, Cuomo and Sliwa.

Bondi's MisUse of the DOJ Breaches her Oath of Office & in her Senate Testimony

Bondi's DOJ Withdrew the Adams Indictment in Spite of DOJ Attorney Protests & Bondi's DOJ Subsequently Indicts Former FBI Director J. Comey & NYS Attorney General L. James on Reportedly Very Weak Charges

October 10, 2025 / NYC & Washington, D.C. Adams Exit & Pam Bondi's Department of Justice [DOJ] Role in it. Incumbent mayor, Eric Adams, dropped out of the race on September 28, 2025, less than two weeks ago. Many believe Adams cut a deal with Trump regarding a obtaining a pardon for his corruption charges in exchange for opening Rikers Island to ICE as a detention center. A pardon had not been given earlier this year, but rather the case was withdrawn [enabling it to be brought up again].

Trump and Adams deny that they cut a deal, just as they denied cutting any sort of deal to withdraw the case earlier this year. It was alleged that Trump's seemingly corrupt Attorney General, Pam Bondi, withdrew the Adams corruption case, in exchange for Adams opening Rikers Island to ICE. Adams signed an Executive Order opening Rikers to ICE, right around the same time that Pam Bondi's Department of Justice withdrew the corruption case against Adams. About a half dozen attorneys, working for Bondi's DOJ, decided to quit the DOJ, rather than withdraw the Eric Adams corruption case. It's nice to know that some DOJ personnel have integrity. But it's not nice to know that they no longer work there.

Rikers was never allowed to be opened, as a lawsuit was filed, and in early September [8th, 2025], an NYS Supreme Court Order declared Eric Adams Executive Order illegal, as it appeared to be part of a Quid pro Quo deal with the Trump Administration [1st link].

Misuse of Department of Justice [aka DOJ]?

Bondi / Trump DOJ Indicts Former FBI Director James Comey & NYS Attorney General Letitia James

As with the Adams corruption case, Bondi appeared to be violating her oath of office, by firing a DOJ attorney who refused to bring suit against former FBI Director James Comey, he because it was believed to be flimsy at best. So Bondi's DOJ hired another former personal Trump attorney, whose specialty is insurance, to file the suit.

The other seemingly 'vengeance' lawsuit brought by Bondi's DOJ was against NYS Attorney General, Letitia James. In this DOJ lawsuit, they alleged James had committed fraud.

Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse wasn't impressed by Bondi's performance in front of the Senate this week. Whitehouse called out Bondi for lying to the Senate Committee in her testimony, when she apparently falsely tried to link him to Jeffrey Epstein. Lying to a Senate Committee is the same transgression for which Bondi's DOJ had just indicted Comey. Here's Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse's statement regarding Bondi's Senate testimony.

Washington, D.C. News - Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse Accuses Bondi of Lying to Senate Committee - the Same Charge for which the Bondi DOJ has Indicted Former FBI Director James Comey

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g4MaIzw4Hk

Republican Senator Majority Leader, John Thune, lead the confirmation of Bondi as Attorney General and Kash Patel as the FBI Director. Generally Thune's Republican dominated Senate appears to have ceded an incredible amount of government / legislative / the people's authority to Donald Trump, by confirming people who appear to be more loyal to Donald Trump, than to executing their duties in accordance with the U.S. Constitution.

Trump / Bondi's Personal Use of Taxpayer Funded Government Institutions. Earlier this year Bondi also reportedly ordered DOJ personnel to scour the Epstein files in search of Trump's name, wherein they reportedly found numerous references. Then Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, appeared to try a bait and switch on the conservative press and their audiences in the American public, to make the issue go away. But they were caught red handed.

It is believed that one of the many contributing reasons for the U.S. government shutdown is that Trump and House Majority Leader Mike Johnson don't want to swear in a recently elected Congressional Democrat, who would enable a bipartisan majority in Congress, to demand the release of the Epstein files. Stay tuned here, because billionaire controlled TV News is failing you by ignoring or burying this story.

NYS Inflation Refund Checks Coming Soon

The refunds will be $150 / $200 or $400 per person depending on income and tax paying related persons status.

Collapse at the Mitchel House in the Bronx

This is Part of an Ongoing Saga of Neglect of an Incredibly Valuable Public Asset - NYCHA - Yes NYCHA - Read on

October 1, 2025 / NYCHA Mitchel House in Mott Haven in the Bronx / News Analysis & Opinion. The value of NYCHA is realized by the billionaires and real estate developers who fund the pols in office, and then turn around and cut deals with the pols to transfer publicly owned NYCHA land to them for pocket change on the dollar, in exchange for what only can be described as something close to an indiscernible public value.

Billionaire TV News fails to recognize NYCHA's intrinsic land value, and in fact constantly aids and abets the wealthy real estate investors by disparaging NYCHA. Thus the NYC public is kept in the dark, ignorant of the real value and potential of all of the incredibly large swaths of prime real estate to which NYCHA holds title. And which could be used to address NYC's affordable housing crisis by building and selling apartments to New Yorkers at prices pegged to the median income in the city, transferrable via a lottery, at sale prices also pegged to median income.

In the photo above or at right, you see the top of the Mitchel House NYCHA complex in Mott Haven in the Bronx. Most of the damage essentially destroyed the chimney which one stood between the far left line of windows and the far left side of the building. As you can see, it was a pretty clean sweep.

But TV News, the well funded pols and the wealthy real estate investors who fund both, seem to look out only for themselves. While making tenants of New Yorkers, byhanding out billions in tax breaks, cheap land and cheap financing to the uber wealthy, thus continuing to transfer wealth to them by taking it from ignorant working class New Yorkers who are kept in the dark.

The photo above or at right was taken a few days ago at the Mitchel House NYCHA complex in the Mott Haven neighborhood of the Bronx. The explosion destroyed a chimney, but that appears to have been a clean break, and the sum total of the damage to the complex, which is fairly negligible given the size of the structure. Nobody was hurt.

In the second photo above or at right, you're looking at the base of the chimney of the Mitchel House NYCA building, which again shows a fairly clean break from the rest of the building, leaving me to guess [completely guess] that little structural damage has been done to the rest of the building. Workmen were working on cleaning up the debris when I took these photos on Sunday 10.5.25.

Trump / Hegseth Preparing to Invade U.S. Cities

Hegseth Tells Top Officers at the Department of War to Quit if They're Uncomfortable with his Plans

Billionaire TV News Coverage of this Important Story is Reminiscent of TV News Coverage of Project 2025 a Year Ago

Tuesday, September 30, 2025 / Washington, D.C.. Hegseth tells U.S. generals if they are uncomfortable with what he and Trump are planning to do, which is to use U.S. cities as a deployment target, they should resign.

We were hard pressed to find much information about this important and very disturbing story on billionaire TV News. Billionaire TV News outlets like Fox and others, are too busy investigating the UN escalator conspiracy to cover important stories like this. Kind of reminds me of their faulty news judgment, when about a year ago, Trump sent the TV News networks off to Ohio to look for the dog and cat eating illegal Haitian immigrants. That looked to me like Trump was making a mockery of TV News, by showing how ridiculous they have become.

Mets Eliminated from the MLB Playoffs - but the Biggest Part of this Story went Unreported by Billionaire TV News

Mets Owner, Billionaire Steve Cohen, was the Founder of a Securities Firm that was Involved in One of the Largest Insider Criminal Cases Against a Hedge Fund in U.S. History. Now Cohen is Vying for a Casino. Should Someone with Cohen's History be Allowed to Operate a Casino in NYC? And is Cohen Competing Fairly for a Casino License?

Sunday, September 28, 2025 / Queens NYC NYS. Mets owner Steve Cohen has been preoccupied vying for a casino license in the CitiField parking lot. This is why Cohen didn't have much time this summer to find a 'black edge' equivalent to win a pennant for the Mets. Now the question is whether Cohen has found some 'black edge' equivalent to use to win a casino license, because someone convinced the board member appointee of former NYC mayoral candidate Jessica Ramos, to change their vote from valiantly advocating against the proposed casino, to voting for it.

U.S. & NYC Economic News Updates

Saturday, September 27, 2025 / U.S.A. Over the past couple of weeks the economic news releases have been a bit troubling.  GDP was revised significantly upward to 3.8% vs 3.3% provided previously, and 3% provided previous to that.  But the growth in output didn't carry along with it any attendant uptick in employment, which is disturbing, assuming the data hasn't been tampered with. 

On the other side of the scale there's inflation, which is showing signs of life again, after falling back nicely since June of 2023.  This could be the costs associated with tariffs finally beginning to show themselves as macro economic data has a lag factor which generally runs 6 - 18 months, which the TV newspeople don't seem to understand.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's Speech Sets New UN Record

A Record for a Walk Out by United Nations Delegates Protesting the Israeli Genocide in Gaza

Friday, September 25, 2025 / United Nations in NYC. Over 100 delegates from 50 nations walked out when Netanyahu stepped to the podium, which reportedly set a record for a UN delegate walk out.

The delegates were protesting Netanyahu's genocidal atrocities in Gaza, where over 67,000 people have been killed, of which more than half [an estimated 70%] have been women and children civilians. Another 170,000 Palestinians have suffered injuries, many of which will be life alterring. And an estimated 500,000 are living under famine conditions in Gaza.

Netanyahu seems inhumanely oblivious to the crimes that he and the Israeli Defense Forces have been committing.

But President Lula also took note of how things have changed. Lula hinted at what is now generally believed around the globe, which is that America can no longer be relied upon to fulfill the outsized role we used to play on the world stage.
