Dear Editor,
I read with interest your rebuttal to a recent editorial regarding view points on Pres. Biden. It reminded me of Jack Webb, “Just the Facts Ma’am”, and the demographic of seniors who reside in Brookhaven Town. Now in all fairness, Howard didn't defend former President Trump, who he couldn't name, but called him Biden opponent, who is around the same age as Biden so to speak! So, I suspect a little bias on his part in defending one side, but not the other. We now live in a world where feelings are hurt so quickly, and yet, freedom of the press in the South Shore Press is just that, you report the facts as you see them, and, you allowed an editorial this day in the shade as the expression goes. By the way, I'm a lifelong resident and senior living in Mastic, as well, and due to Bidenomics, we are all suffering in someway, either at the gas pump, grocery shopping, etc., Under Pres. Trump gas was affordable, inflation was under control, and we were energy independent for the first time in 75 years. So, with every negative story, there should be a positive response as well.
Mastic, New York

In a remarkable demonstration of community engagement and environmental stewardship, the Town of Smithtown recently hosted a highly successful Earth Day Hazardous Household Waste event. This achievement, led by the Town's Department of Environment and Waterways (DEW) and Municipal Services Facility (MSF), was a testament to the commitment of 604 households across the Township, who together safely disposed of over 20 tons of hazardous waste.
The event was a testament to the proactive efforts of Smithtown residents in tackling crucial environmental issues. By responsibly collecting items such as mercury, waste oil-based paints, gasoline, pesticides, and other harmful substances, we prevented their entry into regular waste streams, thereby safeguarding public health and the environment.
Michael P. Engelmann, P.G., Solid Waste Coordinator for the Town of Smithtown, emphasized the significance of such initiatives.
"As we celebrate Earth Day, there is no greater impact that residents can have on protecting our local environment than responsibly disposing of potentially hazardous chemicals and products," said Engelmann. This sentiment underscores the town's commitment to promoting sustainable practices and ensuring the well-being of its residents.
The success of the hazardous waste
collection event was made possible through a collaborative effort involving various stakeholders. Employees from the Smithtown Municipal Services Facility, Public Safety Fire Marshalls, DEW staff, and partnering organizations like Reworld (formerly known as Covanta), who provided recycling services, worked seamlessly to facilitate the safe and efficient handling of hazardous materials.
One notable aspect of the event was the residents' proactive recycling of hazardous items. Reworld provided $5 Home Depot gift cards to over 130 participants who recycled lithiumion batteries, propane tanks, and mercury-containing devices. This initiative incentivized responsible recycling, rewarding participants for their efforts in protecting the environment and their health, and highlighted the community's commitment to sustainable practices.
Looking forward, Smithtown residents are urged to continue their environmental stewardship journey through the upcoming Household Hazardous Waste collection events.
Mark your calendars for July 14th, 2024, and October 5th, 2024. These events are crucial opportunities for residents to dispose of hazardous materials safely and contribute to a cleaner and healthier community environment.
Beyond hazardous waste initiatives, Smithtown residents are encouraged to take advantage
of other environmentally friendly services. The Town Recycling Center, located at 85 Old Northport Road and open from [9 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday], provides free electronic waste disposal services. This includes computers, printers, TVs, monitors, automotive and household batteries, promoting responsible recycling practices and reducing electronic waste in landfills.
Moreover, residents can reap the rewards of their sustainable practices with free mulch available at the Smithtown Municipal Services Facility. This initiative supports sustainable landscaping practices, reduces waste, and rewards your efforts in preserving our environment.
The collaborative efforts witnessed during the Earth Day event underscore the proactive approach Smithtown residents and authorities took to address environmental challenges. By promoting responsible waste disposal, recycling, and sustainable practices, the community of Smithtown reaffirms its commitment to environmental responsibility and public health. The safe disposal of over 20 tons of hazardous waste prevents these harmful substances from entering our regular waste streams, safeguarding our public health and the environment. Such initiatives protect natural resources and foster a sense of collective responsibility in preserving the planet for future generations.

Fresh from a fact-finding trip to the southern border, a coalition of New York county executives fired off a letter to President Biden imploring him to do something about the flood of migrants coming to their communities.
“We write to urgently call for action to address the migrant crisis that continues to unfold at the southern border of the United States,” wrote the president of the New York Association of Counties, Daniel P. McCoy, the Albany County executive.
“Our delegation met with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers and U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) agents and saw and heard accounts of drug and human smuggling, gaps in physical border barriers, the nightly dangers of the ‘war zone’ of illegal crossings, the unknown number of individuals who escape capture every day and night, the lack of modern technology and equipment, and the Sisyphean efforts of USBP to protect our border communities,” the association wrote.
The group, which includes
Suffolk County Executive Edward Romaine and Nassau County’s Bruce Blakeman, offered a 10-point plan to deal with the crisis. “It’s well past time for the president to step up and resolve this crisis,” Romaine said. “The number of illegal immigrants he is allowing to come over the border is hard to believe, but the delegation saw it firsthand, and it is appalling.”
The executives implored Biden to “Secure the border by using every emergency power at your disposal.”
The situation is “dire,” they said, and the unknown origins and whereabouts of the thousands of migrants that crossed into the U.S. represent a “major national security risk.” They were advised that the illegal crossings they visited were controlled by criminal cartels.
The letter references FBI Director Christopher Wray's testimony before Congress that "We are seeing a wide array of very dangerous threats that emanate from the border," including drug trafficking. "The FBI alone seized enough fentanyl in the last two years to kill 270 million people," Wray said. He also mentioned that “some of the overseas facilitators
of the smuggling network have ISIS ties that we're very concerned about.”
The association also called for legislation to increase border patrol staffing, invest in technology (they still use old black-and-white cameras on the border), increase the number of immigration judges to process cases faster, and locate a specialized unit on the southern border to expedite hearings using retired federal judges, magistrates, law clerks, and former assistant attorney generals. They pleaded for changes to the asylum process and for Biden to resolve the lack of communication and coordination among federal agencies regarding vital information such as
background checks and healthcare.
They also asked the president to prioritize putting "badges on the border" rather than behind computers. “Contract agencies can be better utilized for administrative work, both at hardening centers and customs processing centers, to allow USBP to focus on securing the border.”
According to the executives, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the border patrol’s Shelter and Services Program (SSP) must allow counties in New York that are experiencing migrant influxes to apply for funding through their programs.
“SSP funding would help New
York localities provide supportive services, such as housing, to vulnerable migrants,” they wrote.
“It is evident that the current immigration system is failing to effectively deter illegal entry into the United States,” the association of counties letter concluded.
“Without consequences for illegal entry, the flow of migrants will not stop. Policies must be implemented to ensure that consequences are enforced consistently and uniformly across both our southern and northern borders.”
The county executives join New York Mayor Eric Adams who also pleaded for federal help in stopping the flow of immigrants into the state. Adams, who has attempted to relocate aliens into suburban communities, estimated that the migrants will cost the city upwards of $12 billion over the next two years and infamously said the migrant crisis will “destroy” the city. The situation is steeped in irony since Progressive politicians such as Adams at first invited the aliens through their sanctuary policies and now are aghast over the ramifications of the massive human surge.
Murder charges have been lodged against two of the suspects arrested in the Babylon Body Parts case, which caused an uproar when they were originally set free back in March with no bail. This time, District Attorney Raymond Tierney will make sure they stay behind bars as they await trial on the upgraded charges.
Arrested for second-degree murder were Alexis Nieves, 33, and Jeffrey Mackey, 38. They were occupants of an Amityville home where evidence of the gruesome dismemberment of Malcolm Brown, 53, and Donna R. Conneely, 59, both of Yonkers, took place, according to Tierney.
Police were alerted to the murders after a group of children walking to school encountered body parts allegedly disposed of by the suspects in Babylon’s Southards Pond Park. Additional remains were located a few days later in a wooded area of Bethpage State Park.
Two other suspects were implicated in the body parts case, but are not yet facing new charges: Steven Brown, 44, a cousin of victim Malcolm Brown, and Amanda Wallace, 40, who was already in jail for breaking the terms of her cashless bail agreement by getting arrested for shoplifting. Addressing the media at a Monday press conference, Tierney said that both the victims and the suspects were involved in a robbery in Copiague together a few days prior to the murder and that there was drug activity in the Amityville home. "It
takes time to build a case," Tierney said, explaining the delay between when the suspects were arrested for the dismemberment charges and the murders. "We only have one opportunity to get it right."
The case led to a public spat between Gov. Kathy Hochul and Tierney, who chastised the governor for supporting bail laws that permitted the suspects to walk free after being charged with felony counts of first-degree hindering prosecution, concealment of a human corpse, and tampering with physical evidence by concealing or destroying it. Hochul shot back, saying the suspects would not have been released had the district attorney leveled murder charges right out of the gate. Tierney scoffed at that notion, stating that though he had evidence of the dismemberment, he still needed time to build a solid murder case.
Suffolk officials from both sides of the political aisle called for the crimes charged against the four suspects to be added to the list of offenses that require bail.
Republicans took it a step further by calling on Hochul and her Democrat colleagues in the state legislature to scrap the cashless bail system altogether and start over. Their proposal would have given the judge in the case, District
Court Justice Edward Hennessey, the discretion to hold the suspects while Tierney built his murder case.
Tierney reported that at the time of the prior arrests,
substantial evidence against the four defendants was uncovered, including human remains, meat cleavers, butcher knives, and significant amounts of blood at the Amityville house, in addition to video surveillance.
At first, he shied away from the podium, a young boy at a press conference called by the Suffolk Police to ask the public for help in finding those responsible for murdering his father. He had a group of steely eyed detectives behind him, and with some encouragement from his grandmother, seven-year-old Kyrie Long got up on a chair and said what was boiling up inside him.
“I feel sad, bad, and angry,” the little boy said to the cameras and the gaggle of reporters before him. “I want someone to find the person who did this.” Kyrie told of the day in Ronkonkoma two years ago when a car pulled up and the people inside shot his dad. He said he heard the gunshots and looked out the window. “I realized it was him,” he said of his fallen father.
“They don’t have their daddy anymore,” Long’s mother, Theresa Sexton said. “If anyone knows something, please say
something, if not for me but for his sons. They are hurting really bad.” Sexton described her son as a loving father who took his kids everywhere. “Someone, anyone, if you care one bit, they need answers; they need closure,” Sexton appealed. “If you have a heart, do the right thing and bring these people to justice.
Terry Long, 32, went out to warm up his car to take Kyrie and his brother, Zashawn, to school. A four-door sedan pulled up, according to police, and he was shot dead. The case grew cold, and as part of National
Crime Victims Week, the police displayed pictures of the car used in the shooting hoping someone would recognize it. Deputy Police Commissioner Kevin Catalina led the press conference backed by a half dozen detectives and another deputy, Belinda AlvarezGroneman. “Victims of crimes never forget,” Catalina said. “You can see it on their faces,” he said of Long’s family.
A few digits of the get-away car’s license plate were visible, but detectives said they couldn’t make a match on the BMW. “We hope to get people talking,” Catalina said, “generate some new leads.” A $5,000 reward was posted by Suffolk County Crime Stoppers and anyone with information is encouraged to call 800-220TIPS. As part of Crime Victims Week, the police are releasing information on unsolved crimes across Suffolk, including mug shots of a suspect who fired a gun in a road rage incident and a man who was indicted for a violent gang assault and kidnapping of a 15-year old.
Dozens of passengers getting off a bus in front of Macy's in Hampton Bays caused a Social Media stir among many families fearing they were illegal immigrants. The rawnerve issue has communities on tenterhooks as President Joe Biden’s open border policy is bringing millions of undocumented aliens into the country under a Democrat election strategy to change the nation’s demographics in their favor.
The drop-offs were quickly driven away in private vehicles, leaving many on social media to speculate who they were and where they were going.
“This is insane! I heard that this was the third bus. I catch a lot of them hanging out and walking around in my woods,” said Facebook user Julia Elizabeth.
“This is crazy! So glad I am moving out of NY,” posted Christina Thompson.
One theory is they are part of the seasonal wave of workers who come to the Hamptons every year to work on farms and service the tourist trade. Others expressed concerns they were among the 170,000-plus immigrants staged in New York City who Mayor Eric Adams is attempting to relocate to the suburbs. The mayor has stated that Biden’s migrant influx “will destroy” the city, leaving residents worrying that the problem is coming to their doorstep.
“Keep an eye out in your Hometown and get in touch with your local police and officials,” Thomas O’Connor posted on Facebook. “I wouldn’t doubt they are being sent from Mayor Adams. Long Island is not a Sanctuary. He called for this problem so if you see it -report it and
send them back to Mayor Adams.”
“The individuals were all picked up in private vehicles within a few minutes. None of these individuals are loitering around Hampton Bays,” said Southampton Councilwoman Cyndi McNamara. “We do not know where they came from or where they were going. What we do know is that every spring, local businesses hire H-2B visa workers to fill seasonal jobs. The Town of Southampton is not ‘bringing people in,’ nor are we aware of any other municipality sending people here.”
Southampton Town Police were called to the scene, but the bus and its passengers had already departed.
The Suffolk County Legislature inflamed the migrant controversy last May when it voted to hire special counsel to advise them on options to deal with the issue. Mayor Adams
sued them, along with Riverhead Town, and the controversy seemed to simmer down after the litigation was dropped. “Suffolk County is not a sanctuary county, and we will not allow it to become one,” McCaffrey said. “The Suffolk County Legislature will do everything in its power,
If you happened to buy a used car from ABB Auto World in Brookhaven, you very well may have bought a vehicle with a lot more miles on it than you thought.
That’s because Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney announced that the ABB Auto World President and a Salesperson were indicted on defrauding charges. The two are accused of rolling back the odometer on used cars in order to fraudulently pump up the price on unsuspecting customers.
“Fraudulent business practices such as tampering with vehicle odometers and inflating prices undermines trust in the marketplace which has a devastating impact on honest
local business owners, and causes consumers to purchase vehicles at artificially inflated prices,” said District Attorney Tierney.
A criminal investigation led to the arrest of the two ABB Auto World employees: 27-year-old Ashley Duff and 58-year-old Ginger Snipes. Both live in Shirley. They were indicted for Scheme to Defraud in the First Degree and Conspiracy in the Fifth Degree. Both women are out on bail, because under New York State bail reform laws, the charges do not allow judges and prosecutors to do so.
Prosecutors were tipped off the alleged odometer scheme when at least 12 victims contacted police to express concerns that mileage on their cars were tampered with.
The Suffolk County Police then
The Gilgo murder investigation shifted to the desolate woods of Manorville and Calverton last week as investigators fanned out looking for new clues to the 14-year-old case that terrified Long Island.
Using cadaver-sniffing dogs, detectives worked through the weekend searching for remains that may be associated with the victims, whose murders came to light after police found a dozen bodies in the thick brush off Ocean Parkway near Babylon’s Gilgo Beach. Dismembered remains of two of the victims had previously turned up in Manorville, with police apparently hoping to find more.
Making the case a priority after taking office in 2022, District Attorney Raymond Tierney pieced together clues that led to the arrest of Massapequa architect Rex A. Heuermann, who’s awaiting trial in four of the murders. Tierney, who created a special Gilgo Task Force consisting of the FBI, Suffolk,
New York City and state police, Sheriff department staff, and his own investigators to break the case, promised to try Heuermann himself.
While Tierney declined to comment on the ongoing investigation, sources confirmed that the search is related to the Gilgo case. Crime specialists also scoured the site of two cold case murders in North Sea, with Southampton Town Police also on the scene. Tripped up by modern DNA techniques more than 20 years later, Manorville carpenter John Bittrolff was convicted of the crimes in 2017. A third murder, possibly linked to Bittrolff, who is appealing his convictions, remains unsolved.
With 20 law enforcement vehicles posted up at the Manorville Firehouse, the search team comprised more than a dozen K-9 units. The targeted area is massive, made up of hundreds of acres in the Central Pine Barrens region.
contacted the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office. The investigation then expanded to include the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB).
“We are pleased that NICB had the opportunity to provide support. Individuals that prey on unsuspecting consumers by rolling back vehicle odometers to increase their profit will not be tolerated and those responsible will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law,” said Kevin Gallagher, Regional Director of the Northeast Region of the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB).
Law enforcement believes ABB Auto World Inc. purposely purchased high mileage vehicles from car auctions, some with over
200,000 miles documented on their odometers, and then had the odometers rolled back to show lower mileages.
The vehicles would then allegedly be advertised for sale by the two defendants on Facebook Marketplace. Sales paperwork was allegedly fraudulently created with false mileage and presented to the victims as authentic. This resulted in ABB Auto World Inc. charging thousands of dollars more for each vehicle than what the vehicles were worth.

the pendency of the case. Duff is due back in court on May 30, 2024.
Sipes, a saleswoman at ABB Auto World Inc., was arraigned on the indictment before Acting Supreme Court Justice Karen M. Wilutis, who released Sipes on her own recognizance during the pendency of the case. Sipes is due back in court on May 30, 2024.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant District Attorneys James Bartens and Adriana Noyola of the Financial Crimes Bureau, and the investigation was conducted by Detectives Randy Edwards and Kevin Braithwaite of the Suffolk County Police Department’s District Attorney Squad.
Looking to make it easier for local fire departments and ambulance services to recruit and retain volunteers, Suffolk officials called on the state legislature to pass a package of bills to benefit first responders.
“Our volunteer first responders are the heart of our communities and deserve to be supported as they save lives and protect our homes and businesses every day,” said Suffolk Executive Edward Romaine, who was a part of a group of officials rallying for the measures in Dix Hills. They focused on legislation to assist first responders with mental health issues, fund vital equipment, and provide tax credits and other financial security initiatives to attract more volunteers.
“As a 37-year member of the Volunteer Fire Service, and still quite active as a Fire Chaplain and Team Leader in Suffolk County Emergency Services, I personally thank you for your recognition of the important role that we in fire and rescue continue to play in the
protection of life and property in Suffolk County,” Joseph McCarthy told the officials. He thanked Assembly members Steve Stern and Joseph DeStefano for carrying the bills in Albany.
“You cannot put a price tag on what our volunteer firefighters and ambulance cost because their services are invaluable,” Stern said. “But if we had to, l can say with certainty that we would not be able to afford it. Therefore, we must do everything we can to maintain this vital part of our emergency infrastructure.”
“The bottom line is we would be less safe if we didn’t have the dedicated men and women who volunteer to protect us day in and day out,” DeStefano said. “When the alarm rings, no matter the time, no matter the weather, they answer the call.”
One of the bills would create a First Responder PTSD peer-to-peer program, modeled after the Dwyer Program for Veterans. Another would provide state funding for local departments to purchase gear and other equipment the volunteers need to do their job.
In a bustling event at Longwood Junior High School, Supervisor Dan Panico and Councilman Michael Loguercio engaged with nearly 100 students, heralding a crucial endeavor in civic education: the Seal of Civic Readiness program.
This innovative initiative is not just another program. It pivotally recognizes students' profound grasp of civic knowledge, skills, mindsets, and experiences. The seal is more than a badge of honor on their high school transcripts and diplomas. It's emblematic of their dedication to participatory government, civic responsibility, and fundamental civic values.
The Seal of Civic Readiness is not easily earned. It's a symbol and testament to the rich
tapestry of civic engagement and scholarship. To attain this distinguished seal, students must fulfill the rigorous requirements for a New York State local or Regents diploma and amass six points, with a minimum of two points in Civic Knowledge and two in Civic Participation.
One of the significant pathways for students to accrue points is through completing a middle school or high school Capstone project, offering them hands-on experiences in real-world civic endeavors. These projects serve as catalysts for deepening their understanding and commitment
to civic engagement.
The Seal of Civic Readiness program's focus on civic education is a beacon of hope in today's politically charged climate. With civic literacy and engagement playing a pivotal role in shaping responsible citizens, initiatives like this not only recognize academic achievements but also foster a generation that is ready to navigate and contribute meaningfully to civic life.
For those eager to embark on a transformative journey of civic excellence, we invite you to explore the Seal of Civic Readiness program further. Visit www.nysed.gov/curriculuminstruction/seal-civic-readiness to discover the depths of civic knowledge and engagement that await you.

Protecting the headwaters of the Nissequogue River, which meanders north on its way to the Long Island Sound, is Blydenburgh Park, a 627-acre preserve in Smithtown offering visitors panoramic views of Stump Pond, miles of trails, and a wide array of cultural and recreational activities.
The pond was born of a dam created in 1798 when Isaac Blydenburgh, along with his cousins Joshua Smith II and Caleb Smith II, stopped up the headwaters of the river to power a grist mill. The pond’s name derives from the tree stumps protruding through the water on what were previously the riverbanks.
A boardwalk through swampland in the southwest region of the park affords hikers a 5.7-mile loop trail around the entire pond. They can also visit the Blydenburgh Farm and New Mill Historic District, the 19thcentury settlement established by the Blydenburgh family. The historic milling center includes the 1798 New Mill, the 1802 Miller's House, the circa 1860 Farm Cottage, outbuildings, and the circa 1820 Blydenburgh Farmhouse. It is protected through the Suffolk County
Historic Trust and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The center illustrates much of the farm-to-mill-tomarket cycle of the pre-industrial American economy and is the
only group of indigenous farm and mill buildings in close proximity to each other in public hands anywhere on Long Island.
A descendant of the original settlers was former Suffolk Legislator and state Supreme Court Justice Donald R. Blydenburgh. The park is also featured through the Long Island Greenbelt Trail Conference.
RV and tent sites are available for campers at the Suffolk County park from April 1 to November 11. Freshwater fishing is permitted from sunrise to sunset along the shoreline or from a rowboat, kayak, or canoe. You can also get a rowboat rental from mid-May to Labor Day; personal kayaks and canoes may also be launched from the rowboat rental
area or by the Historic District. Horseback riders can ride or trailer their mounts to utilize an extensive bridle path system and practice ring. Trailer parking is available via the north entrance. The park is also a great place for picnicking, and there is also a dog run for pet owners.
For his Eagle Scout project, Jacob Gaio from Troop 888 in Smithtown created a hand-drawn map of the park and installed numbered trail marker posts with QR Codes that enable anyone with a smartphone to download the map and find their location. The map is available for free from the Avenza Maps app. For more information about hikes and tours call (631) 360-0753 or visit http://www.ligreenbelt.org/.
Suffolk’s beleaguered Department of Social Services will have a new commissioner under the Romaine administration, a former Nassau County social services veteran who pledges to bring a “new era” to the agency.
John Imhof, 79, of Bethpage, guided the Nassau department for 13 years before stepping down in 2019. He has 40 years in the mental health field and will oversee the nearly 1,000 employees who provide services to Suffolk residents in need.
“John Imhof is exactly what this department needs right now,” County Executive Edward Romaine said. “He's a consummate professional with decades of experience. Changes need to be made, and John Imhof has the track record and know how to make sure social services
better serves the public.”
Romaine pledged to revamp the department in the wake of the death of Thomas Valva, a young boy who shared a class with his grandson. Reports of abuse by the boy’s father and fiance flooded into the Child Protective Services (CPS) office, a branch of social services, but were not acted upon. Thomas died after being forced to sleep in an unheated garage on a night when temperatures dropped to 19 degrees.
Upon taking office, the county executive said he found a department in disarray with extraordinary wait times for essential services and a pressing need for new leadership. Its past director, Frances Pierre, stepped down on the eve of a special grand jury report initiated by District Attorney Raymond Tierney to find out what

went wrong in the Valva case. Suffolk’s top officials, including all 18 county legislators, signed a letter to Gov. Kathy Hochul asking her to support changes in state law that will make it easier to investigate child abuse claims.
Subject to legislative approval, Imhof will have a five-year term and earn $193,626 yearly. He will be joined by Anne Oh, formerly with the district attorney’s office, as chief counsel. Also part of the Social Services leadership team is Sylvia Diaz, a Romaine deputy executive.
Romaine said he is committed to providing the department with additional staff and other resources, including counseling and training. “The public deserves a government that functions properly and where children such as Thomas Valva don’t fall through the cracks,” Romaine noted.

Brookhaven, a place of unparalleled beauty with its lush greenery and natural charm, owes much of its preserved splendor to the unwavering efforts of the Division of Land Management (DLM). The DLM's pivotal role in managing Brookhaven's Open Space Acquisition Program ensures that the town's natural heritage, a source of immense pride, remains protected and accessible for future generations.
At the heart of DLM's responsibilities is managing properties acquired, donated, or dedicated for open space. This includes overseeing the properties integrated into the Town's Nature Preserve system, a vast network of [specific number] preserves that serve as havens for wildlife, recreational spaces for residents, and vital ecological buffers against urban sprawl. DLM's role in managing these preserves involves [specific tasks], which are crucial for maintaining their ecological balance and ensuring their accessibility to the public.
The DLM's approach to acquiring lands for conservation is strategic and multifaceted. It involves a rigorous process of identifying priority properties based on specific criteria in collaboration with various stakeholders, including the
the Town Board, the Open Space Committee, Suffolk County, New York State, and organizations like The Nature Conservancy and Peconic Land Trust. Through these partnerships, DLM navigates legal complexities, conducts environmental assessments, and negotiates acquisitions to ensure the preservation of ecologically significant areas.
Brookhaven's Land Acquisition & Management Policy underscores the crucial role of preserving farmland and undeveloped land in maintaining the town's environmental, ecological, hydrological, geological, scenic, recreational, and historical integrity. This policy encompasses various conservation strategies such as purchasing fee titles, acquiring development rights, and promoting the clustering of development. These efforts align with the town's vision of enhancing residents' quality of life by preserving natural habitats and ensuring sustainable land use practices.
The Town Board of Brookhaven recognizes that the preservation of these natural areas is not merely an environmental concern but a fundamental governmental function that directly benefits residents. By protecting and managing these lands, the town not only conserves biodiversity but also provides residents
with invaluable benefits. These include opportunities for outdoor recreation, access to scenic vistas, protection of historical and cultural heritage, and the assurance of clean and potable groundwater sources.
For the residents of Brookhaven, the impact of DLM's work is not just a concept, but a tangible and profound reality. The availability of well-managed open spaces translates into numerous benefits that enhance their quality of life. Families enjoy recreational activities such as hiking, birdwatching, and picnics in preserved natural settings. Access to green spaces promotes physical activity, mental well-being, and a stronger sense of community among residents, making Brookhaven a truly special place to live.

As part of National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, the Suffolk County Police Department put out an all points bulletin for information that will lead to the capture and arrest of Josue Zepeda Padilla, who is wanted for an MS13 gang assault.
Police stated Zepeda Padilla was one of seven people indicted for the robbery, kidnapping and gang assault of a 15-year-old boy that occurred on January 6th.
According to cops, the group of gang members lured the teen to the Huntington train station where they beat him, forced him into a vehicle, and took him to Pilgrim Psychiatric Center in Brentwood. While there, law enforcement stated the young
There’s an old saying that “What you do speaks so loudly I cannot hear what you say.” This certainly rings true for Conservatives and Republicans who consider voting for Robert Kennedy Jr. over President Donald J. Trump and President Joseph Biden.
I went to a recent event where RFK was the headline speaker. The purpose of the event was “non-political” in nature. He was there to share his thoughts on medical freedom during the COVID lockdowns. There were also plenty of die-hard supporters of his candidacy for Commander in Chief.
I was happy to share with folks at the event that there was a massive difference between RFK’s rhetoric and his hard core liberal record.
RFK is no conservative.
He will siphon votes from President Trump. A vote for RFK can help President Biden serve another four years in the White House. RFK can actually serve as the catalyst for our long and painful national nightmare to continue with “Crooked Joe” as President for another term.
Let’s look at the facts. RFK is more in tune with the beliefs and principles of President Biden, radical progressives, The Squad, and left wing lunatics who favor open borders, higher taxes, and big government spending. Here are specifics:
RFK supports raising taxes on every American family and a tax rate of 70%. If Bidenomics is crushing families with record high inflation, you just wait at how much it will cost to fill up your tank, buy groceries, and pay rent if RFK is in charge.
He wants to eliminate fossil fuels and impose a carbon tax and once said oil executives should get the death sentence. So much for liberals being tolerant of ideas that differ with their own.
Kennedy wants to expand the Green New Deal and supports the leftist Paris Climate Accords. If you like AOC, you’ll love RFK.
Kennedy called antisemite Louis Farrakhan “a truly great partner” but called the NRA a terrorist organization. Let that sink in for any of you who are angered at pro-terrorist protests on college campuses that are calling for the death of Israel.
Kennedy doesn’t back our
fighting men and women in uniform and accused the Pentagon of contaminating our country. Can you imagine how soldiers will want to follow this weak kneed Commander in Chief?
Good people can disagree without being disagreeable. I recently went on NY1 and was asked if an RFK candidacy hurts President Trump. I did share that it was despicable that the Biden administration was not providing him Secret Service protection, especially since his father and uncle died at the hands of assassins. The more voices and choices voters have, the better.
While I appreciate RFK running and his stance on the jab and use of Ivermectin, that does not mean we turn a blind eye to his left wing policies and beliefs that will lead to further erosion of the American Dream.
President Trump will put America First, secure the border, crush cartels, invest resources here at home, get the economy moving in the right direction, reduce inflation, restore and respect law and order, and send President Biden right back to where he belongs: his basement.
Look no further than the
reaction President Trump is receiving on the streets of New York City when he visits bodegas and construction sites. Blue collar workers, people of all races, colors, and creeds treat him like the rock star that he is, in a city where 68% of voters are registered Democrats.
This is why it is so critically important that Conservatives and Republicans can’t be fooled by RFK’s radical rhetoric.
If President Trump is energizing
Democrats in New York City, imagine what he can do against President Biden in the race for the White House in the People’s Republic of New York?
President Trump will need every vote he can get if he is to become the first Republican since Ronald Reagan to win here.
A vote for liberal RFK is a vote for President Biden. Don’t take my word for it. Just look at his record, most certainly not his rhetoric.

Criminals that support Hamas who are terrorizing Jewish students on college campuses.
That’s how the New York State Conservative Party describes proPalestinian protestors on college campuses here in New York and across the country.
Students and agitators have even set up tent encampments on the campus of Columbia University. That Ivy League school announced it was shifting to remote classes for the remainder of the spring semester. Rabbis at some schools warned Jewish students at some schools to remain off campus for their personal safety.
“The Conservative Party strongly supports the right to protest, but what’s happening at Columbia, NYU, and on other
college campuses is beyond the pale. These are not peaceful protests; they’re criminal takeovers of property that are disrupting the academic life of thousands. They’re also clearly orchestrated to intimidate Jewish students. Threatening groups of Americans and seizing property is anarchy,
not protest, and it must come with a penalty. This unbridled wokeism — egged on by irresponsible, leftist professors — cannot be tolerated. Clear the campuses now,” said New York State Conservative Chairman Gerard Kassar.
Public backlash against schools like Columbia for not cracking down on protestors has been swift and severe. New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who attended Columbia on a scholarship, posted a statement to Twitter saying he will no longer donate to his alma mater.
“I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country. I am no longer confident that Columbia can protect its students and staff and I am not comfortable supporting the university until corrective action is taken,” said Kraft.

Doing little to reduce the cost of living, stanch the surge of illegal immigrants into New York, or stop the wave of crime sweeping over the state, Gov. Kathy Hochul’s poll numbers have tanked, with a plurality of voters saying she is out of touch with the citizenry and their quality of life is getting worse.
According to a recently released Siena College Research Institute poll, only 41% of New Yorkers view the governor favorably, down from 45% when residents were polled in January. Her job approval rate also tanked, down from 52% to 48%.
A majority of voters say Hochul is hard working, and pluralities think she is honest and is not corrupt, while voters are closely divided on whether she is effective or a strong leader, the research institute concluded.
Nearly half of voters, 49%, identify the cost of living in New York as one of their top two issues for the governor and legislature to address, with 29% calling it the top issue. The recent influx of migrants, crime, and affordable housing are New Yorkers’ next three top issues.
“After recording her best favorability and job approval ratings in nearly a year last month, Hochul saw both fall by net eight points this
month, with her favorability rating slipping back into negative territory, where it spent most of 2023,” Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg said. “Whether it was her budget proposals, her efforts on issues of importance to voters, or perhaps the recent attention-grabbing special election in Queens and Nassau, both Hochul’s favorability and job approval ratings fell the most with downstate suburban voters and Democrats.”
“Another potential factor affecting how voters see Hochul is that a majority, 56%, continue to say that the quality of life in New York is getting worse, compared to only 14% who think it’s getting better, and 25% who say it’s staying about the same,” Greenberg said. “More than two-thirds of Republicans and independents think the quality of life in New York is getting worse, as do a plurality, 42%, of Democrats.”
“The good news for the Governor is that a strong majority of voters –including a majority of independents and a small plurality of Republicans – think she is hard-working, and 49% say she is not corrupt – although Republicans are closely divided,” Greenberg said. “A plurality of all voters and a majority of Democrats also think Hochul is honest. While Democrats think she is an effective and strong leader, overall voters are
closely divided.” Greenberg added: “A plurality of voters, including a majority of Republicans and a plurality of independents, think Hochul is out of touch with average New Yorkers. Even Democrats are closely divided.”
Running in an overwhelmingly Democrat Blue State, Hochul won a close election over Republican
Lee Zeldin in 2022. Her policies have shifted dramatically to the left from when she served in Congress representing her Buffalo community.
The poll was conducted February 12-14 among 806 registered voters.

A recent Siena College Poll, conducted from April 15-17 among 806 NYS Registered Voters, has sparked controversy due to its questionable methodology and potential biases. The poll's findings, which suggest a majority of New Yorkers view the ongoing Trump trial as legitimate, fail to accurately represent the diverse opinions within the state. This raises concerns about the potential misrepresentation of New Yorkers' views, which could significantly impact our understanding of the political landscape.
The poll, which included 517 respondents contacted via a dual frame (landline and cell phone) mode and 289 drawn from a proprietary online panel (Lucid), has been criticized for its sampling methods. By relying on a combination of landline calls, cell phone interviews initiated via text, and online surveys, the poll may have inadvertently skewed results and failed to capture a genuinely representative sample of New Yorkers. This underscores the need for more accurate and representative polling methods.
Of the 806 respondents, 60% indicated they are paying attention to Trump's trial. However, the poll's
assertion that 54% consider the trial legitimate while 30% view it as a "witch hunt" appears suspect, especially considering the diverse political landscape in New York.
Furthermore, the poll's reported favorability ratings for President Trump at 37-59% and President Biden at 45-52% and 45-55% for favorability and job approval, respectively, raise questions about the sample's political composition and potential biases. For instance, the poll's reliance on a proprietary online panel (Lucid) could have introduced a bias towards more tech-savvy individuals, potentially skewing the results in favor of President Biden.
While a standard statistical
measure, the margin of error of +/- 4.1 percentage points-a range within which the true value is likely to fall-may not fully account for the inherent biases introduced by the polling methods used. Critics argue that the poll fails to provide a nuanced and accurate portrayal of New Yorkers' sentiments regarding the Trump trial and political figures in general.
In light of these concerns, it is crucial to approach the poll's findings with caution and recognize the limitations of its methodology. By doing so, we can better understand the true diversity of opinions among New York voters, rather than relying solely on the poll's potentially biased representation.
Governor Kathy Hochul's recent announcement of the $60 million Green Resiliency Grant (GRG) program has sparked discussions about the initiative's potential positive impact, raising hopes about its alignment with a broader environmental agenda. This program, if implemented effectively, could significantly bolster our environmental resilience, offering a beacon of hope in these challenging times. However, it's essential to consider the political context in which the program was introduced, including the Governor's recent election and the wider political climate, which could influence the program's implementation and impact.
Critics argue that while environmental initiatives are essential, the GRG program is more about furthering Hochul's political goals than addressing urgent ecological needs. They point out that the program's objectives, terms like "green streets" and "cleaner air," are seen as politically charged rather than focusing solely on environmental conservation. They also raise significant concerns about the program's potential to be used for political gain rather than for their intended purpose of promoting environmental resilience, a worry that demands our attention.
One of the primary concerns is the substantial financial commitment involved, with $60 million allocated in this inaugural round. Questions about fiscal responsibility arise, especially when considering New York State's significant investments in water infrastructure in recent years. Critics question whether this new program represents an efficient use of taxpayer funds or if it's more about political optics.
However, proponents argue that the program's focus on environmental resilience and allocating funds to disadvantaged communities could bring significant environmental and social benefits.
EFC President and CEO Maureen A. Coleman's comments about the program's necessity raise further questions. While she emphasized upgrading infrastructure for resilience, critics argue that such statements may be part of a narrative to justify the program rather than objectively assessing its impact.
Similarly, Department of Environmental Conservation Interim Commissioner Sean Mahar's positive outlook on the program's benefits for flood-prone communities is met with skepticism. Critics question whether the program's benefits will genuinely reach the intended communities or if political considerations will overshadow them.
While commendable, the program's focus on disadvantaged communities also faces scrutiny. While the requirement for 35% of funds to benefit underprivileged communities aligns with specific standards, critics argue that political motivations may overshadow genuine environmental concerns in allocating these resources.
While laudable, New York's increasing investments in water infrastructure are also being scrutinized in light of the introduction of the GRG program. Some question whether the state's approach is becoming more about political gestures than effective environmental stewardship. However, the GRG program could complement these investments by focusing on ecological resilience and community benefits, thereby
enhancing the overall effectiveness of New York's environmental initiatives.
As the GRG program unfolds, stakeholders will play a crucial and empowering role in closely
monitoring its implementation. Their vigilance will ensure transparency, accountability, and a genuine focus on environmental needs, underlining the importance of their contribution to effective
and responsible environmental policies. Their active participation is not just appreciated, but it is also vital for the success of this program and the future of our environment, a role that cannot be overstated.
President Joe Biden signed a $95 billion foreign aid package, spending billions of tax dollars on other countries sparked intense debate and criticism from those who preferred the money be spent on American soil. The bill, among other provisions, allocates funds for humanitarian aid, economic development, and security assistance to various countries.
"I can't support this bill ultimately because it gives money to Gaza, it gives money for the NGOs that are trafficking illegal immigrants, and it does nothing, zero, to stop the invasion at our southern border. That's got to be our priority," Senator Ted Cruz remarked, highlighting key concerns that have resonated with many Americans.
North Carolina Senator Ted Budd's words resonate with the urgency of the situation: "From the Middle East to Europe to the IndoPacific, weakness from President Biden has allowed chaos to spread across this globe. But right here at home, we are facing a crisis of our own. Most notably, the worst border crisis in American history. The truth is that the consequences of our border crisis affect our
citizens the most. So, as we again debate foreign aid and foreign spending, I will repeat what I have said throughout the process: We must secure our own border before we help other countries protect theirs. In order to be a strong nation, we first have to have a strong border here at home."
"So, when I oppose this package, it won't be because I oppose helping our friends and our allies."
The legislation, which includes regulations targeting TikTok and addresses various global challenges, has faced scrutiny for its perceived neglect of critical issues within the United States.
For instance, it allocates significant funds to address climate change, a global challenge with domestic

Six words perfectly summed up the dangerous idiocy and raging antisemitism taking place on college campuses across the country when a now viral clip of an anti-Israeli protester explained why she was there.
“I wish I was more educated,” said a clueless female student at NYU when asked why she is taking a proPalestinian position that calls for the eradication of Israel.
Ma’am, the entire country wishes that for you and other spoiled, radical progressives who instead of earning a well rounded education, spend their days shutting down colleges like Columbia, wreaking havoc on campus, and spewing hatred of Jews.
implications. The ongoing crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, marked by a surge in illegal crossings and humanitarian challenges, has been a focal point of criticism against the bill's priorities.
Critics argue that while foreign aid and global tech regulation are necessary, the bill needs to address urgent domestic matters. However, proponents of the bill point out that the foreign aid provisions can help stabilize regions, thereby reducing the potential for conflicts that could impact U.S. national security. Calls for more substantial action and resources to tackle border security and immigration reform have been growing louder, underscoring the divide in priorities between policymakers and specific segments of the public. Despite the criticism, the aid package includes significant funds for key allies and regions of strategic importance. Notably, Israel is set to receive $2 billion in aid, a testament to the enduring U.S.-Israel partnership in the face of regional challenges.
The signing of the $95 billion foreign aid bill is a significant moment in U.S. foreign policy and reflects the ongoing tensions and debates within the political landscape.
Yes, many students like the one who went viral have zero idea what they are protesting about. They’re angry for the sake of being angry, so hungry for a cause and purpose they will lock arms with pro-Hamas terrorists who angrily and boldly chant "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free."
Some of these students have zero clue that this chant calls for the eradication of Israel so that Palestine can occupy land from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea.
These children protesting received one too many participation trophies growing up. They suck their thumbs in the fetal position when their feelings are hurt, and stop at nothing to invent perceived personal struggles in order to perpetuate a permanent feeling of victimization just to find something to be angry about.
The powder keg of antisemitism in the academic world was sparked at that Ivy League school, and quickly spread to other corners of the country.
Here’s what is frightening about so many of these pro-terrorist antisemites protesting on college campuses: they mean what they chant. Remember the old saying: when someone shows you who they are: believe it.
In years past “they” were afraid to say the quiet part out loud: they despise people like me just because I am Jewish, they want to see Israel wiped off the map, and long for Hamas to control a massive Palestinian state.
One of the reasons why they are emboldened in their brazen antisemitism is because “The Squad” and other radicals that hijacked the Democratic Party amplify their antiIsrael voices.
Look no further than AOC blasting Columbia and the NYPD for Columbia making "the horrific decision to mobilize NYPD on their own students."
Shockingly Ilhan Omar, whose
own daughter was arrested at Columbia, didn’t condemn those supporting Hamas, but rather took aim at House Speaker Mike Johnson for visiting the Ivy League school because in her words he was there to "stir up, really, more anger and hate, and endanger the lives of young people."
Rashida Tlaib doubled down on her Israeli hate by crazily criticizing colleges for cracking down on proHamas protestors who are calling for the end of “Israel’s genocide.”
We cannot sit idly by and while these protests try to destroy democracy, our ideals, our way of life, and the State of Israel.
You don’t placate a bully and expect them to stop pounding you. It’s time we hit back hard and call them out for who “they” really are and what they stand for.
They are antisemitic bigots who must be held accountable every time they open their mouths.
Many nations, religious groups, and political leaders were silent and complicit during World War II when Nazi Germany killed millions of Jews.
We must never repeat the mistake of appeasement when it comes to the protests of today. It cannot and must not lead to violence against Jews and Israel in the days, weeks, months, and years to come.

In a legal battle that has not only captured but also shaken the nation's attention, the entrance of retired Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz into the arena carries a weight that cannot be ignored. Dershowitz has leveled grave accusations against New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office, alleging a profound violation of voters' rights in their prosecution of former President Donald Trump. His pointed criticisms echo concerns and alarm bells about fairness, justice, and the potential misuse of legal processes for political gain, framing the issue as an immediate and direct threat to democracy.
Dershowitz's comments coincide with the commencement of President Trump's criminal trial in Manhattan. The core of the case revolves around allegations that Trump engaged in a criminal conspiracy to influence the 2016 presidential election through non-disclosure payments, commonly referred to as "hush money."
In response to Assistant District Attorney Matthew Colangelo's characterization of the payments as part of a broader conspiracy, Dershowitz vehemently contested the claims, asserting that the prosecution represents a disturbing misuse of legal mechanisms. He argued that such actions undermine voters' fundamental rights and pose a significant threat to democratic processes, branding it as "election fraud, pure and simple."
Central to Dershowitz's critique is the allegation that the charges against Trump have been inflated unjustly, transitioning from misdemeanors to felonies based on what he perceives as an invalid legal foundation.
According to Dershowitz, this legal maneuvering reflects an overreach of state authority into federal statutes, thus skewing the balance of legal fairness and perpetuating a threat to democracy.
President Trump, accompanied by his attorney Todd Blanche, voiced similar sentiments, decrying the trial as an act of "very unfair"
election interference. Blanche emphasized Trump's innocence and criticized the prosecution's decision to pursue the case, casting doubt on its motivations and timing.
Dershowitz's stance, backed by other legal luminaries such as Harvey Kushner of Long Island University, carries significant weight. Kushner, a respected voice in the legal community, views the prosecution as a politically motivated attack
aimed at undermining Trump's campaign efforts.
His characterization of the district attorney's actions as 'weaponized' underscores the broader concern among legal scholars regarding the impartiality and integrity of the legal process and its potential impact on democratic principles.
As the trial unfolds, public sentiment is not just a passive observer but a crucial factor in the perceived fairness of the
proceedings in New York. A recent Rasmussen poll revealed a significant level of skepticism about the likelihood of Trump receiving a fair trial. This sentiment underscores the high stakes not only for Trump but also for the principles of justice and democratic governance at the heart of this contentious legal battle, emphasizing the public's role in shaping the outcome.
The clash between legal authorities, political figures, and public opinion sets the stage for a landmark trial transcending individual personalities. It delves into fundamental questions about the rule of law, the limits of prosecutorial power, and safeguarding democratic norms in the face of partisan contention. Alan Dershowitz's outspoken defense of legal principles amid this tumultuous legal saga underscores the enduring importance of legal integrity in a charged political landscape. It serves as a stark reminder that any attempt to interfere with voters' rights poses a direct and immediate threat to the very fabric of our democracy.
The United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has made a groundbreaking move that could reshape employment practices. It has issued a Final Rule that effectively bans the use of most post-employment non-compete agreements, a decision that is set to take effect 120 days after its forthcoming publication in the Federal Register. This rule represents a significant shift in labor regulations and has already ignited intense debate and legal challenges.
The Final Rule, a measure designed to protect workers' rights and promote fair competition, has a broad scope. It effectively prohibits businesses from entering into or enforcing noncompete clauses with their workers, regardless of their position or salary. However, exceptions are made for certain agreements related to the sale of businesses. The overarching goal of this rule is to enhance job mobility and empower workers to pursue better opportunities without undue restrictions.
This regulatory change has its challenges. Legal challenges, including lawsuits filed by entities such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, seek to delay or invalidate the Final Rule before it comes into force. These challenges underscore the complexity and contentious nature of altering established employment practices.
At the heart of the Final Rule is the FTC's stance against unfair competition practices outlined
in Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act. By targeting noncompete clauses, the FTC aims to create a more level playing field and prevent employers from unreasonably limiting workers' career options after leaving their jobs. The rule also mandates businesses to inform affected workers about the unenforceability of existing non-compete agreements.
The Final Rule's implications extend beyond legal compliance for businesses. It reflects a broader shift in attitudes toward labor practices and the balance between protecting business interests and workers' rights. As companies prepare for the rule's implementation, legal experts stress the importance of reviewing existing contracts and exploring alternative strategies for safeguarding proprietary information and trade secrets, providing a sense of security in the face of change.
While the Final Rule represents a significant step toward promoting fairness in the job market, its ultimate impact is not yet set in stone. It hinges on ongoing legal battles and regulatory responses, which demand the attention and involvement of all stakeholders. The coming months will likely witness heated debates and negotiations as we collectively navigate the complexities of this regulatory transformation.
As the clock ticks toward the Effective Date of the Final Rule, businesses, policymakers, and legal advisors face a critical juncture in shaping the future of employment practices in the United States. The rule's potential ramifications underscore the need for
A recent judicial breakthrough has illuminated a concerning nexus between the Biden White House and the investigation into the Mara-Lago raid, signaling potential ramifications for legal fairness and democratic principles. The unearthing of previously redacted documents by Judge Aileen Cannon sheds light on the intricate web of interactions among key government entities, casting doubts on claims of impartiality in high-profile legal pursuits.
The unredacted documents, unveiled in a recent court order, provide a glimpse into behindthe-scenes communications and collaborations involving the White House, the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). These revelations challenge the narrative of legal independence and raise serious questions about the potential weaponization of justice against former President Donald Trump and his associates.
One of the most striking revelations pertains to the Biden administration's
and DOJ's active involvement in crafting a criminal case against Trump for alleged mishandling of classified documents. The timeline of these interactions, predating official referrals and public announcements, underscores concerns about the politicization of legal processes.
The term' threat to democracy' takes on a new resonance in this context, underscoring how the manipulation of government agencies for political purposes can erode the bedrock principles of democratic governance.
The unredacted documents hint at a deliberate effort to target Trump, casting serious doubts on the fairness and objectivity of the investigative and legal apparatus.
The role of NARA also comes under scrutiny, with internal emails revealing discussions and exchanges related to Trump's records and potential legal actions. Such revelations question government operations' transparency and underscore the urgent need for robust checks and balances to prevent undue influence in legal proceedings, a need that cannot be overstated in these troubling times.
Furthermore, the involvement of the Department of Energy (DOE) in post-indictment actions, such as retroactively terminating security clearances, adds complexity to the narrative. These developments underscore the broader challenges of navigating legal accountability within a political landscape where partisan interests can intersect with judicial processes.
The actions of Judge Cannon in unearthing these unredacted documents stand as a testament to the importance of transparency and accountability within the justice system. They underscore the pivotal role of an independent judiciary in safeguarding legal integrity and upholding democratic values.
As the implications of these revelations ripple through legal and political circles, they serve as a stark reminder to reassess the equilibrium between governmental powers, legal autonomy, and democratic norms. The public's vigilance and demand for transparency remain vital in addressing concerns about potential abuses of power and preserving the foundational tenets of democracy.
“If we look to western Long Island, there are a lot of lessons that should be applied to us—how a lot of mistakes were made regarding water,” environmentalist John Turner was saying.
Turner was speaking about farwestern Long Island—Brooklyn— and how it blew its underground water supply more than a century ago.
Brooklyn then tried to tap into the aquifers under the Pine Barrens of Suffolk County for potable water but was rebuffed. So, it needed to look for water from reservoirs built upstate.
These days, the 2.6 million residents of Suffolk and Nassau Counties won’t be able to tap into those reservoirs if they blow their underground water supply because they’re functioning at their maximum, notes Turner. “Suffolk and Nassau will not be able to turn to New York City simply because there’s just not excess or surplus water that the city could provide to those two counties because of the water supply needs of New York City. Plus the cost of trying to interconnect, even if there were excess capacity, would be costprohibitive,” he said last week.
Thus, he emphasizes, it’s critical we preserve the water supply we have—the aquifers below our feet—our “sole source” of potable water.
Turner is senior conservation policy advocate at Seatuck Environmental Association in Islip and former legislative director of the New York Legislative Commission on Water Resources Needs of New York State and Long Island. He is also former director of Brookhaven Town’s Division of Environmental Protection.
He has been a leader in the effort to have wastewater purified and returned to the underground water table on Long Island rather than it being discharged into surrounding bays, the Atlantic Ocean and Long Island Sound—as most sewer systems on Long Island do.
Nassau County is 85 percent sewered and as a result of its releasing wastewater in this way, “the uppermost expression of the aquifer system” in Nassau has “dropped considerably,” notes Turner. Hempstead Lake now “is Hempstead Pond.”
What Turner has been warning about is not new.
Dr. Jeffrey A. Kroessler, a
historian and professor and chief librarian at John Jay College in Manhattan, wrote and lectured about the Brooklyn and Long Island water story years ago. He lived in Sunnyside, Queens and died in 2023. In 2011, in the “Long Island History Journal,” published by Stony Brook University, there was an extensive article by Kroessler titled “Brooklyn’s Thirst, Long Island’s Water: Consolidation, Local Control, And The Aquifer.”
“In the 1850s…Brooklyn tapped ponds and streams on the south side of Queens County, and in the 1880s dug wells for additional supply,” he related.
“This lowered the water table and caused problems for farmers and oystermen, many of whom sued… for damages. Ultimately, salt water seeped into some wells from overpumping. By 1896, Brooklyn’s system had reached its limit.”
“Brooklyn had to find additional sources for its increasing population,” said Kroessler. “Wary of those intentions, as early as 1884 the supervisors of Suffolk County resolved to oppose ‘the enactment of any measure which, under the plea of supplying water to…Brookyn, may presently or
prospectively take from any part of Suffolk County water needed for the use of its own population.’”
That legislation was enacted by the Suffolk County Board of Supervisors.
Brooklyn “was casting a covetous eye on the Pine Barrens in Suffolk County.”
“As one writer explained in 1899,” related Kroessler, “In considering the subject of the water supply of Long Island, we must first of all leave out the idea that we receive water from any other source than which falls directly from the sky.” Kroessler said: “The aquifer, therefore, can only be replenished by rainfall filtered through many layers of sand and soil. That slow process accounts for Long Island’s particularly fine water, but also points to the vulnerability of that limited resource.”
The action by the Suffolk County Board of Supervisors was buttressed by New York State. As Kroessler wrote, “Governor Levi P. Morton…signed a law sponsored by Assemblyman Carll S. Burr of Commack that prevented Brooklyn from drawing off Suffolk’s water without the approval of a majority of the county supervisors.”
Meanwhile, New York City “built a new system of reservoirs and aqueducts to deliver water from the Catskills” and “Brooklyn’s old water system was transferred to the City of New York.”
“Only in 1993 did the state legislature pass the Pine Barrens Protection Act to conserve the valuable and irreplaceable resource” as “Suffolk approached the limit of its precious water supply, just as Brooklyn had a century before. But while Brooklyn could look to additional water from New York’s system,” concluded Kroessler in his “Long Island History Journal” article, “Suffolk has no option other than reforming its own practices and policies.”
That is truer than ever today.
Turner is excited about the Suffolk County Water Quality Restoration Act proposed to be on the November election ballot providing for county funding for “projects for the reuse of treated effluent”—notably for utilization on golf courses, sod farms and similar sites—to help preserve the quantity in the underground water table in Suffolk. Turner says it “behooves all levels of government to focus on water reuse.”
My mother died in 2022 and named me as beneficiary of her IRA. I was told that I was required to take distributions for 2023 and 2024 and that I may owe penalties and interest for failing to take RMD’s (required minimum distributions). Is that true?
Since your mother died after December 31, 2019, your distribution rules are governed by the SECURE ACT. You are considered a designated beneficiary of an inherited IRA and the 10-year rule applies.
Under the 10-year rule, you must withdraw all funds from the IRA by the 10th year following your mother’s death, which would be December 31, 2032. This means you no longer have the option to stretch the distributions out over your lifetime. Also, under the initial SECURE ACT provisions you are required to take your RMD each year of the 10-year period and failure to take RMD’s would result in penalties and interest to you.

There was a ton of speculation around the league when talking about who the Giants and Jets would be selecting in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
The Giants led the rumor mill for most of the past month, with many insiders having the GMen selecting a new signal caller. They have committed to Daniel Jones but did what ESPN called "extensive work" looking into quarterbacks leading up to the draft. Sitting in a position where it seemed the top three QBs would be off the board that left names like Michael Penix, Bo Nix and JJ McCarthy all swirling around Big Blue. Fans seemed torn on replacing Jones and his massive contract also seemed to stand in the way.
When the Giants were on the clock everyone in the league was on the edge of their seats, because what New York would do would change the course of draft night. Instead of a QB, New York selected Malik Nabers. Nabers is not just a non QB but he is a serious weapon for Jones and you can see the Giants new found commitment to their well paid gunslinger.
In almost any other draft Nabers would have been the #1 wide receiver taken off the board. He has all the makings of a true top WR and a #1 option for the #1 pick. His yards after catch ability is as good as anyone in this draft and he's been compared to Tyreek Hill. Nabers is an A pick for the Giants who's offense needed a jolt after losing Bakley in the offseason and he fits that explosive bill perfectly.
The Jets finished the season with a top ranked defense and they went all in on an aging quarterback a couple of years ago, so the consensus was they would take an offensive player. But, the question was who?
Many analysts pointed to getting Rodgers another pass catcher. Even that had some dissenting opinions though as many WR names were thrown around, but the fans seemed to want tight end Brock Bowers.
Bowers has been favorably compared to some of the best pass catchers in the NFL and Aaron Rodgers has shown through his long career that he enjoys throwing to agile, pass catching tight ends.
With all that said, New York pivoted away from getting Rodgers some weapons to work with and instead went with someone who
could protect their often injured aging QB when they selected Olu Fashanu.
Fashanu is a big, physical lineman from Penn State. He has all the metrics of being a star in this league with a very highest ceiling. With elite size and athletic ability it's easy to project greatness from him.
What he is missing is great hands and some footwork that left some draft critics mocking him further down the list. The Jets have plenty to work with and with the right coaching they could have that o-line anchor they have been needing.
This is a solid B pick that can swing to an A with some tweaking, but can also fall to a C if that coaching
doesn't take.
The Jets also got some draft capital with the pick because they traded down one pick with the Vikings. Minnesota traded the No. 11 overall pick, a 2024 fourth-round pick and a 2024 fifth-round pick to the Jets for their No. 10 and No. 203 overall picks.
Long Island was all smiles when they heard these memorable words on Friday night. "With the 79th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft the Indianapolis Colts select offensive tackle Matt Goncalves." Those words will now be forever entrenched into Long Island sports lore as the Suffolk native goes to the NFL.
The 6 foot 6, 330 pound tackle out of Pitt seemed to be the Colts target all along. Indianapolis traded up from the 82nd pick to the 79th, giving Arizona a 6th rounder to get their man. Goncalves is likely going to be a swing lineman for the Colts next season. He has experience at both tackle spots, playing 11 games
at left tackle and 13 at right tackle, but can also move to the inside in the NFL. The Colts see him as an elite pass protector after he allowed just three sacks in 900 pass block attempts in college. And in fact,
North Babylon continues to climb the rankings and this week they received a full team effort in adding one to the win column.
Starting pitcher Tim Camier and closer Chris Stumpf combined to throw a no-hitter in a 3-0 win over Centereach.
Camier had six strikeouts in the game as he was effectively wild allowing six walks, but no one crossed the plate in his 5 1/3 innings. He notched his second win of the season and now has 10 K's in those two wins. Chris Stumpf retired all five batters he faced as he shut the door on the game, adding two strikeouts. Stumpf came into a pressure situation as he walked into a two runners on jam, in the bottom sixth inning, but came away
ByTomBartonPrograms could only dream of weeks like the Stony Brook Women's Lacrosse team has this week. As a team the Sea Wolves secured their back to back Coastal Athletic League regular season championship. Stony Brook is 14-2 and 8-0 in conference, putting any chance of anyone catching them out of reach. This team has also won nine games in a row and are 9-1 at LaValle Stadium.
It wasn't just team accolades this week though as the Wolves also had Avery Hines win the IWLCA National Co-Defensive Player of the Week. For Hines it's the second time in the last three weeks that she has
clean as he induced two ground ball outs. Earlier in the week Stumpf surpassed Billy Meslin (Class of 2000) as the program leader in saves, since comprehensive stats leaders was established in 2000.
In the victory Justin Dumeng drove in the go-ahead run, while Stumpf also was big with the bat going 2-for-4 with a triple and two runs scored. Tommy Morton added a 2-for-3 effort with a RBI.
all three of those sacks came as a freshman, he didn't give up one since then.
Goncalves could get a chance to start at guard right away with Indy's young and improving offense, but should be there for good once they allow starter Fries walk after the 2025 contract. Goncalves missed most of last season due to an injury but scouts raved about the tape he was able to show when healthy and many believed if he was healthy he could have been as high as a first round pick. He becomes the 10th starter from Pitt's 2021 ACC Championship team to be drafted and the Manorville native assured his team that he is ready. “They won’t regret picking me, I promise you,” he said after being selected.
won the award. This week also saw Ellie Masera win the CAA player of the week award. For Masera it has been an awards filled week. She was named one of the 25 nominees for the prestigious Tewaaraton Award. That award is the equivalent of lacrosse's version of the Heisman Trophy. The Tewaaraton Award is presented annually to the best NCAA men's and women's lacrosse players of the season.
The Sea Wolves begin postseason play in the CAA semifinals beginning May 2nd at LaValle Stadium.
Hunter Colagrande has been outstanding all season long but he was nearly perfect this week when he shut down Hampton Bays. The Kingsmen went on to win the game 3-0 and remain in first place, but the real story was Colagrande.
Not only did Colagrande pitch a no hitter in the effort but he only walked one batter all game. Over the complete game he struck out 14 as he baffled Hampton Bays all day. What's even more eye popping is this is Colagrande's second no no of the season and this brought him up to a Suffolk County leading five wins on the season. He has struck out eight or more batters in all five outings so far and his overall season statistics seem almost unbelievable. His numbers read like a video game. 30 innings pitched with 49 strikeouts. He has allowed just seven hits in those starts and just seven walks. That brings his WHIP to a tidy 0.35 and his ERA is an absolutely perfect 0.00.
Michael Cooper and Vincenzo Buffolino each had a two-out RBI extra-base hit in the win and King's Park will try to hold onto first place as they take on Hampton Bays two more times this week with Colagrande expected to start next week when the Kingsmen travel to Islip.
There is a new man in charge of the Shoreham-Wading River School District's Athletic Department. The district has named Eric Bramoff as the new Director of Health, Physical Education, Athletics and Nurses effective July 1. Mr. Bramoff will be taking over for current Athletic Director Mr. Mark Passamonte, who has held the position for the past decade but will be retiring after the year.
Mr. Bramoff's resume is extensive and impressive. He has New York State professional certifications in school district leadership, physical education, K-12. He is affiliated with numerous professional organizations including as a Section
XI policy committee member, a Section XI seeding committee member, a National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association member and a New York State Public High School Athletic Association member.
Mr. Bramoff joins the district after he was Director of Athletics for Oyster Bay-East Norwich Central School District. Before that he was the Director of Athletics in the Sag Harbor Union Free School District and the Bridgehampton School District. He earned a certificate of advanced study in educational administration from LeMoyne College, a masters in instructional technology from AIU Online and a bachelor of physical education, SUNY Cortland.

Vegas baby, Vegas! Those words that were made famous by Vince Vaughn in Swingers now have a totally different meaning for Westhampton's own Dylan Laube. That's because Laube was drafted by the Las Vegas Raiders this weekend and his NFL dream has become a reality.
Laube seems like the perfect fit for the Raiders as a pass catching threat out of the backfield, and really he is THE pass catching threat at running back in this draft class. Laube received the 3rd best grade among RBs in this class by Pro Football Focus and that was low according to many scouts. Laube is a low to the ground runner, who has tremendous balance and quick feet. The Raiders are a team that have traditionally used versatile running backs and head coach Antonio Pierce is no exception. The Westhampton Beach
“We look forward to Mr. Bramoff’s leadership and progressive ideas in building on the many successes of our current athletic program,” Superintendent Gerard Poole said. “Mr. Bramoff will continue to move us in the positive direction of our health and physical education programs to ensure our students have the support systems needed to succeed.”
Earlier this week Shoreham Wading River secured a postseason baseball berth with a 7-1 win over Center Moriches. After missing the postseason last season Gordon Votruba got the win as the starting pitcher with 7 strikeouts, 0 walks and 0 earned runs. Joe Leo and Aiden Reilly added two RBIs each.

High School product led the FCS in all-purpose yards in 2022 (194.3) and 2023 (209.5). He ended with 43 total touchdowns in just 46 games played in his college career. He displayed these skills in every game, but he once had 295 receiving yards in a single game, showing what a threat he can be at the next level.
Laube has had comps of Austin Ekeler and Darren Sproles for his great hands and elusiveness. The Raider fan base were immediately energized and many were quick to point out his special teams pedigree as well. He was named CAA Special Teams Player of the Year. He is the first player to be drafted from the University of New Hampshire since defensive tackle Jared Smith in 2013 and despite being from a small school he has big aspirations with the Raiders. Laube said "I can't wait to get to camp, to get to Vegas, to win games and win a Super Bowl. I am so freakin' excited."
As they battle for first place the Port Jefferson Royals were looking for some pitching and they received it in a big way this week. Port Jefferson sits at 6-4 overall and 5-2 in league play. They have been led by
some excellent offense in recent games but against Amityville on Monday they watched a brilliant pitching performance.
Senior Kyle Erickson took the hill and fired a no hitter. The fire baller struck out nine batters across the effort and
Miller Place junior Nick Frusco threw a remarkable no hitter in their win against Sayville this week. The junior lefty hurler led the Panthers to a 6-0 win in dominant fashion. Frusco didn't just throw a no hitter because what might be as impressive is that he struck out 16 batters over the outing. Sayville has had an excellent season of their own as they came into the game in first place with a 10-1 record but their bats didn't stand a chance against Frusco in this one, where he only threw 92 pitches.
Frusco now has three games this season where he has struck out 10 or more batters as the fireballer led the Panthers to
even added a double, three RBIs and two runs scored as the Royals beat up on Amityville 12-0. This was Erickson's longest outing of the season as he has come out of the bullpen this year as well as starting. Head Coach Jesse Rosen said "Kyle was locked in on the mound for seven innings, in a dominating, and memorable performance. In true team fashion Kyle was quick to show his appreciation to his team’s defense as an important factor in this accomplishment. Exciting stuff for Kyle, and Port Jefferson Baseball."
Port Jefferson has now won two games in a row by the score of 25-2 and they have scored 45 runs in their last four games. The Royals have a long break before taking on Amityville once again next week. With just four games remaining on the schedule they will need to keep scoring to take the lead in league play.

As Draft Day 2024 closed in, one thing was pretty certain in the betting market, that Caleb Williams would be chosen as the first overall pick by the Chicago Bears.
Williams had long been speculated to be the top selection this season, even going back two seasons when he won the Heisman Trophy. The Bears made any doubts of who they would choose to be their new signal caller obsolete when they dealt their former first round pick Justin Fields away this off season to the Pittsburgh Steelers. So, when draft day was upon us and we saw a -1000000 next to Williams name to be called first, there was little suspense. And yes, that is six zeros.
The drama of the betting market didn't end there though because Williams has been
tied to Chicago for so long he has already moved markets for the upcoming season. Will the Chicago Bears win the NFC North this year is receiving the most bets on the board.
The Bears are listed at +350 to take down the North, with nearly 1/3 of all bets coming in on them. They are also getting plenty of action on making the playoffs in year one of the new look offense. They are listed at -125 to get into the postseason.
These are all team goals though, and you can argue the Bears additions of players like Keenan Allen, Swift and others propelled some of that action.
One look at Caleb William's player prop bets will tell another story. Williams is not only the most bet player on the board to win the NFL MVP award this coming season, but it's being reported that he is getting four times as much action as any other player.

2. The location for the proposed acquisition is at St. George Drive, Shirley, New York, further identified as SCTM No. 0200-983.2006.00-028.000.
3. No negative environmental effect would be engendered by the project.

Copies of the determination and findings will be forwarded upon written request without cost.
