Seven Factions of NYC Politics by Michael Lange
It’s too bad the Republican faction is given an honorable mention, but the article overall is fairly informative and comprehensive.
Shoplifting hit another record high! No media other than NY Post is covering it.

Governor Hochul proposed a $227B FY2024 budget!
A breakdown by Times Union. Read the Executive Budget. Past Executive and Enacted New York State budgets. In FY2016 under Governor Cuomo, the State’s spending was $140 billion! Don’t pay more for worse service and lack of attention!!!
