Also Indian point used to raise the temperature of the hudson by a degree or so. If a water based thermal network uses a river based heat pump, you are technically pulling the heat from the nuclear power plant and placing it in tbe district heating system! Reopen Indian point!

Technically possible? Certainly! You could even place them on the same spots as current natural gas power plants.

However any risk of a meltdown would mean placing it away from the city center. My vote is to place the offshore.

Looks like most places in nyc get around this by having the fire escape external stairs in the back. Is that still legal?

Having dealt with pita fire safety issues, its a lot of money, but it might save a life. Data doesn't always beat clear thinking here.

We should not be working with a country that invades sovereign nations and starts a war that murders children.

Working with them on science means that we are fine with the state invading others. You have to make a whole country suffer when it's leaders are starting wars.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.

I really admire Cory Booker! Especially his support of nuclear power.

It's amazing to see any politician fight right now, it's the motivation america needs!

But I have to ask, if he wasn't speaking, what would the senate being doing right now? Can they pass ANY legislation?

I agree. We gotta have standards. The standard is that citizens vote, make it easier to become a citizen but don't throw all the rules out the window.

Would have been nice if @schumer.senate.gov used his last bit of leverage with the trump admin...

I agree public university funding is more important that private university funding, but making this about that instead of an attack on free speech and science... I went there on full need-based financial aid. It's all bad.

Someone is shooting at you with guns and you had some grenades and tossed them over so they could pull the pin and throw them back at you

Are you kidding? We've been showing up to town halls in republican districts, protesting at tesla dealerships, and all we ask is senators fight with us instead of folding like cowards.

I've been a more moderate Democrat that was very happy with biden but the dems are useless now

This is all Schumer's fault, he orchestrated this to provide air cover to senators in swing states.

New York needs to go all out and take down @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

They did the calculation but let make them know they are bad at math.

How senators are voting on a bill to avert a government shutdown The Senate is voting on a measure to extend federal funding through September. See how your lawmaker voted.

When pro-cloture Senators are up:

2030
Gillibrand (NY)
King (ME)

2028
Cortez Masto (NV)
Fetterman (PA)
Hassan (NH)
Schatz (HI)
Schumer (NY)

2026
Peters (MI) not running
Shaheen (NH) not running

...evidently one has to protect one's post-office livelihood

The dems are useless. We need to take down @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

The time came to stand up for our rights and they blew it, while their own residents are getting kidnapped by ICE.

I can't believe schumer and gillibrand. They just handed the keys to the trump admin with zero fight.

Really @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social ??? Sending this out when you are supporting trumps agenda?

They have nothing left to fight with. This is it. They better make some demands and hold their ground and play hardball or things are about to get a hell of a lot worse. Deportations for people legally protesting. Jailing opposition. Welcome to New Russia.

The GOP’s CR is a total abdication of Congress’ duty. It hands power to Trump & Musk to continue to destroy our government and slash vital programs while they enrich themselves.

Democrats must FIGHT BACK, not roll over. The Senate must vote NO on cloture.

This is the worst take I've seen from you, almost as bad as your state climate take.

We can't handle a government shutdown because we don't have the political capital? The CR damages DC schools so you want to support it? We should have just won elections? Elon is firing everyone amyway?

It's funny thinking back to the argument that Dems couldn't get rid of the filibuster when they were in power because they'd miss it once the GOP was in power.
