Tonight, in the final debate of his decades in power or desperately pursuing it, you will hear from Andrew Cuomo the same arrogance, the same entitlement, the same excuses for a broken status quo he's long maintained.

New Yorkers are ready for change.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

Most patients have mild symptoms for seven to 10 days, which can include fever, sore throat, painful mouth sores that blister and a rash on the hands and feet, the CDC said. HFMD is very contagious and can spread when people come into contact with droplets from a person sneezing, coughing or talking; objects and surfaces that have virus particles; fluid from blisters; and feces, according to the CDC. "While most cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease are mild, the virus spreads easily in group environments like schools and day cares," Dr. Bruce Randolph, SCHD director and health officer, said in a press release. "Parents should keep sick children home until they are fever-free, feeling well, and any mouth sores or blisters have improved."

NEWSONE didn't stop at Chicago. He named the targets: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Detroit, Atlanta, Baltimore, Washington, D.C.-the "enemy cities" in his political theater. And each has the same ingredients: neglected housing stock, redlined blocks, crumbling public housing, and distressed multifamily portfolios. Visible vulnerability: migrants bused in and warehoused in shelters, unhoused encampments, Black and Brown neighborhoods starved of investment for decades. Financial appetite: developers and investment funds circling like vultures, salivating over "value-add" opportunities. And political cover: an endless loop of rhetoric branding these cities as "lawless," "unsafe," and ripe for a federal "blitz." Chicago's South Shore raid shows the mechanics. In New York, it could mean targeting migrant-heavy hotels converted to shelters. In Los Angeles, encampments under freeways or motels in South Central. In Detroit or Baltimore,

"I went ballistic," said one longtime tenant of a Crown Heights building where power was cut, owing to to Pinnacle's $10,350 in unpaid bills. "We have tenants here that are very sick, in their 80s and 90s, that need the ambulance to come and take them up and down the steps."
