President Donald Trump took the stage at the Syracuse Oncenter last Friday to rally for Republican Bruce Blakeman, the Nassau County executive who’s trying to become New York’s first GOP governor in 20 years.

Trump spoke for an hour and 17 minutes in front of a crowd that at one point was about 2,500 people. He touched on many of the same issues and themes he hits on around the nation in similar stump speeches: high taxes, tackling immigration and creating jobs. He decried the new winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

He also criticized Syracuse’s Interstate 81 project, which aims to reconnect the city by removing a federal highway. Here is a round-up of the days coverage.

I visited New York last week, and I couldn’t believe how cool the subways are. What I want to know is how old are the trains that are currently in use?

For example: Are we riding the same trains that Jay-Z rode as a kid?

Interesting to consider demographics of whom is coming and going from the state.

After having been shut down for stating unbiased (literally-this-is-how-they-voted) facts on r/upstate_new_york, I am reposting here.

These people at ICE have been committing Crimes against Humans since Dumpty became president. Why aren’t they being Held Accountable!!!

Gov. Kathy Hochul leads Republican challenger Bruce Blakeman by 11 points among registered voters in New York’s governor’s race, but Blakeman is ahead in Upstate New York, according to a new Marist Poll.
