This is the All Local morning update.
New York City's Department of Transportation is installing public cabinets to charge e-bike batteries. The chair of the MTA says most riders are now using OMNY tap-to-pay. And new data says prison sexual abuse is being investigated faster
Today's Update Journal delivers a full buffet of stories — and like any good buffet, you're not sure how these dishes ended up next to each other, but somehow it works. We kick things off with a genuine MTA miracle — yes, you read that right — as the Mamdani proposal inches from pipe dream to possible reality, proving that sometimes transit justice does show up fashionably late. Then we pivot to the funeral for America's last penny. It lived a long life, annoyed generations of cashiers, and bought absolutely nothing since 1968. Meanwhile, cable news has entered its “let's just try something new and hope the ratings gods are kind” era. MSNBC has officially rebranded itself as MS NOW — because apparently someone in corporate stood up during a meeting and said, “What if… hear me out… we change the name?” And finally, The Last Word reminds us that as we march toward Thanksgiving, the real stories aren't in the headlines — they're at the table. The kitchen table, the folding table, the “we never use this except for holidays” table — all of them. Because nothing brings people together like a feast, a good laugh, and a family member quietly judging the mashed potatoes.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Friday, a man with a gun was killed in a shootout with the NYPD after he pointed his weapon at a man in an apartment building elevator and a deli worker and threatened to shoot up a hospital. A Long Island man who allegedly smashed up and slashed the tires of nearly a dozen police cruisers parked outside the NYPD's newest station house was busted after he nearly backed into cops on his tail –and then promptly cut loose in court, cops and prosecutors said.And in Chicago, The Rev. Jesse Jackson, who has been receiving around-the-clock care at home, has been hospitalized with a rare neurological disorder, according to his Chicago-based organization.

Thanks Nachum! The 2025-2026 Winter season is only a few weeks old, but already all leagues have seen dynamite matchups and jaw-dropping comebacks. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, varsity hockey sees two shocking third period comebacks, JV Hockey's defending champs open up with a statement W, Varsity Basketball's top teams trade wins and losses on the week and familiar faces atop both divisions in the first few weeks of JV Basketball. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I'm Elliot Weiselberg. We start off in Varsity hockey, where three upsets were thwarted by furious third-period action. Tuesday night saw TABC and Ohr Yisroel meet up in Teaneck. A close game throughout, Ohr Yisroel found themselves up 3-1 as action ran into the third, before the defending conference champions found their groove, scoring 4 goals to grab the 5-3 victory and stay undefeated atop the West. The Flatbush Falcons saw that and decided to up the ante the very next night. The Falcons found themselves down 4-0 to their rivals, the Magen David Warriors heading into the third period, before Flatbush poured in 6 goals in the first 5 minutes of the final stanza, squeezing past the Warriors 6-5 for their first win of the season. Finally, a comeback that was not to be. Defending runner-up HANC took a 5-1 lead into the final minute of the 2nd period on YDE, but the Thunder would blitz the Hurricanes, netting 3 goals in 32 seconds to end the middle period down only 5-4. HANC would regain their balance in the third for a 7-5 victory, and now sit at 2-0 atop the East. Moving over to JV Hockey, TABC has surged their way to the top of the league at 3-0. YDE gave last year's runner-ups a battle in Teaneck on Thursday night, but, ultimately, the Storm prevailed 5-2 and followed that win up with a trip to Brooklyn and a decisive win over Flatbush last night. In other action, DRS kicked off their title defense with a blanking of that same Flatbush team and now sit tight for their next week as they prepare for HAFTR next Monday night and SAR next Thursday, both on the road. Varsity Basketball saw plenty of action this week, and very little clarity as to who should be at the top. Frisch and DRS started out the week barely squeezing by MTA and YDE, respectively, both 4 point victories. Frisch would follow that up with a 62-48 loss to TABC in the first battle of the Route-4 Rivalry, behind Akiva Borgen's 19 point night for the Storm. TABC would follow that with a 45-36 loss to DRS, while Frisch would rebound with a 73-66 victory over Flatbush. The flux left the door open for Magen David and Ramaz both of whom would take advantage, Ramaz with a 19 point win over MTA and Magen David with a 50-43 win over TABC, both now leading their respective divisions at 3-0 Meanwhile in JV basketball, DRS dropped Westchester and YDE with two 70-point showings, while Flatbush has also jumped out to 2-0, but needed to survive a 51-49 contest with North Shore in order to maintain perfection. DRS will meet up with North Shore tonight while Flatbush will host HANC. Out West, SAR has opened their season at 2-0 taking wins over MTA and Kushner. And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I'm Elliot Weiselberg.
The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to block lower court rulings requiring full food aid payments during the government shutdown, as some tri-state residents begin receiving November SNAP benefits. Meanwhile, the Senate has taken its first step toward ending the shutdown after a divided procedural vote on compromise funding legislation. Also, the MTA is expanding automated bus lane enforcement to four more routes in Brooklyn and the Bronx, with warnings beginning Monday.
If it feels like we've been here before—it's because we have. Day 38 of the government shutdown has Congress stuck in the political version of Groundhog Day, where everyone swears this time they'll fix it, only to hit “repeat” like a Netflix user who fell asleep on episode one. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi is officially stepping off the stage—for real this time. It's the political equivalent of your favorite performer announcing their farewell tour… again. But this one might actually stick, since she's earned enough standing ovations to rival Broadway's finest. Back here in New York, the post-election mood feels like the confetti never showed up. “The Statue That Never Was” takes center stage for why Curtis Sliwa didn't drop out—a project that went from “visionary tribute” to “budget whoopsie” faster than you can say “city permit pending.” Over at City Hall, Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is still workshopping his hit single, “Safety, But Make It Community.” Picture it: subway outreach teams, health workers in vacant storefronts, and a whole new agency devoted to making you feel warm and fuzzy on your morning commute—assuming the MTA cooperates and your train ever arrives. It's bold, it's ambitious, and it's one bad PowerPoint transition away from a TED Talk. Finally, as the credits roll on this week's political chaos, we close with something rare: gratitude. It doesn't trend, it doesn't go viral, and it definitely doesn't filibuster—but it still changes everything. In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Friday, Republican U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik is expected to announce a run for New York governor, according to two people familiar with her plans.New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani made a triumphant trip to Puerto Rico for an annual summit that brings New York politicians and lobbyists to sunny San Juan for strategy meetings, workshops and boozy confabs.And in Washington, a former Justice Department employee who threw a sandwich at a federal agent during President Donald Trump's law enforcement surge in Washington was found not guilty of assault in the latest legal rebuke of the federal intervention.
Governor Kathy Hochul is urging SUNY students to volunteer at food pantries as the federal shutdown nears 40 days and threatens food aid for millions of New Yorkers. Meanwhile, ICE is recruiting NYPD officers through social media ads promising higher pay and up to $50,000 in bonuses. Also, more New York City buses will start using cameras Monday to ticket drivers who block lanes, part of the MTA's push for faster, safer service. Plus, in this week's transit segment, a closer look at Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani's bus plan and how controversy around the planned Gateway tunnels may have helped Mikie Sherrill win the New Jersey governor's race.
We know who we're fighting... but what are we fighting for? Today, I will discuss this vital question with James Lindsey. James has probably done more than anyone else to help the layman understand the origins of wokeness. As we fight this battle, we must have a coherent idea of where we are going and what we want at the end of all the fighting. Is it our current system with minor adjustments, or is it something entirely new? Let's ask James.SPONSOR: True ClassicTheir perfectly balanced fit, feel, and price ensure guys look and feel their best.

A 13-year Australian study has just dropped — and its findings are shaking the medical world. Children on ADHD medication reported lower quality of life than those who weren’t medicated. In this eye-opening episode, Justin unpacks why the “gold standard” research behind ADHD treatment might have been flawed all along — and what this means for families trying to do what’s best for their kids. This one might make you rethink everything you’ve been told. KEY POINTS The shocking new Deakin University study on ADHD medication and child wellbeing. Why “the gold standard” MTA study may have misled the world for decades. How peer review can fail — and how Big Pharma shapes the story. What long-term follow-ups reveal about medication outcomes. Why your child isn’t the problem — and what really needs to change instead. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Your child doesn’t have a problem.

New York City street vendors are calling on the city council to pass legislation that would remove limits on the number of licenses issued by the city. Meanwhile, more than 160,000 New Jerseyans have already cast their ballot in the hotly contested race for governor. And finally, mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani wants transit ambassadors to handle mental health calls instead of the NYPD.
There is a possibility for a shake-up to the Warrant of Fitness system. The government's opened consultation on a new proposal - with the first WOF for new light vehicles lasting 4 years. Cars between 4 and 10 years old would only need a check every 2 years, while those over 10 would remain on annual inspection. CEO of MTA Lee Marshall told Mike Hosking that there has been mixed feedback so far. 'As for the recommendations made; mixed views. But, we'll ultimately rely on what members tell us.'

Dr. Ryan Sultan is a Board Certified Adult and Child Psychiatrist, researcher and Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. He is also in private practice with expertise in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD. One in six American boys is now diagnosed with ADHD. In France, it's one in 200. American children are diagnosed with ADHD at rates 30 times higher than other Western nations. We consume 80% of the world's ADHD stimulants despite being 4% of the population.There's no blood test, no brain scan, no biological evidence this "disorder" actually exists - just subjective checklists and lines of questioning. In this essential episode, Dr. McFillin challenges the validity and reliability of ADHD diagnosis, and what unfolds is a stunning revelation about how 7 million children ended up on amphetamines.

Translation: American psychiatry created diagnostic criteria that captures the most kids. This isn't discovering disease - it's widening the net.The 20-Fold Difference They Can't Explain: The article acknowledges a "20-fold greater prevalence of childhood hyperactivity in North America compared with England" in 1970s studies. Their explanation? Different diagnostic practices, not different children. So they're admitting the "disease" depends entirely on who's doing the diagnosing.The Admission Hidden in Plain Sight: The authors state that differences in prevalence "reflect differences in diagnostic practice rather than true differences in behavior." They're literally admitting ADHD prevalence is about diagnostic opinion, not biological reality.Even establishment researchers like Faraone admit that ADHD prevalence varies 20-fold based on diagnostic criteria used, not actual differences in children's behavior. They acknowledge it's diagnostic practice, not disease prevalence, that creates these massive variations. This 2003 paper proves psychiatry has known for decades that ADHD rates are artificially inflated by American diagnostic criteria.The Irony: This paper, trying to prove ADHD is universal, actually proves it's a diagnostic construct that changes based on which manual you use. That's not how real diseases work.

Tony Carbonetti, former Chief of Staff to Mayor Giuliani, joins Sid live in-studio to talk about the current political climate in New York City. He analyzes the mayoral race, expressing his belief that Andrew Cuomo has a chance to win if voter turnout surpasses 1.4 million, and suggests Curtis Sliwa should drop out to improve Cuomo's odds against frontrunner Zohran Mamdani. Carbonetti emphasizes the importance of focusing on public safety and the risks of becoming a progressive city. He also touches on his loyalty to long-time friend Giuliani and critiques MTA policies.

We're closing out the week inside The Update Journal. Former FBI Director James Comey's now the one facing questions — and this time, he's not the one asking them. We'll break down the charges and the irony behind them. Then, in Episode 3 of the Mets Playoff Chase Diary, the Amazins' season continues to hang by a thread — and that thread's starting to fray. And in The Last Word, as the leaves fall and the air turns crisp, a reminder that change doesn't have to be loud to be beautiful — though try telling that to a New Yorker with a leaf blower.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Friday, The 13-year-old boy gunned down outside a Queens Dunkin' Donuts this week was slain over a gang beef, police claimed— as they identified a fellow teenager as the suspected killer.Grand Central Terminal experienced a brief blackout that left some MTA workers trapped in an elevator and thousands of others left to navigate the cavernous halls with the glow of their cellphones.And in Washington, James Comey was charged with lying to Congress in a criminal case filed days after President Trump appeared to urge his attorney general to prosecute the former FBI director and other perceived political enemies.

In this episode we speak with three runners from Team Abbott — a community of runners who have faced serious health challenges but didn't let those challenges define them! [powerpress] About Our Guests Elizabeth Pehota (Boston, MA): Three days out from running the 2022 Berlin Marathon, Elizabeth Pehota experienced a feeling of pins and needles in her hands, feet and thighs, and an unnatural resistance while running. Soon after, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a chronic, unpredictable disease of the central nervous system. As someone who shares her daily life on social media, Elizabeth, @healthy_cheers on Instagram, only recently opened up about her diagnosis, but has already formed relationships with other MS patients around the world. Elizabeth is an Abbott World Marathon Major Six Star Finisher and received her seventh star in Sydney. Ed Barnes (Douglas, MA): Ed was born with a congenital heart condition and at age 15 he started to experience frequent dizziness - to the point of nearly passing out - leading him to undergo open heart surgery to receive an Abbott artificial aortic heart valve. This year, after completing the Boston Marathon, Ed became the first person with an artificial heart valve to finish all seven Abbott World Marathon Majors. Mary Tawney Suarez (Fullerton, CA): Just before the pandemic, Mary started experiencing seizures and was diagnosed with Epilepsy and a brain cyst. One year later, she started experiencing back pain and numbness in her legs, which was revealed to be the degeneration of the cerebral and lower part of her spine. Despite these obstacles, Mary has continued running, and just finished the Berlin Marathon. [box] Links Mentioned in This Episode Run Coaching. Work with an expert MTA running Coach.

Breht speaks with veteran organizer, revolutionary strategist, and author Eric Mann. In this wide-ranging conversation, Mann reflects on his decades of struggle; from his early work with SNCC and SDS, through his involvement with the Weather Underground and his time as a political prisoner, to his rank-and-file organizing as a UAW autoworker. Along the way, Mann wrestles with the realities of repression and counterinsurgency, the need for disciplined cadre and a Black-led united front against imperialism, and the history of the Marxist Left in the 60's and 70's in the USA as told through his personal experiences. His story is both a living history of the U.S. Left and a revolutionary call for commitment and organization for a new generation of revolutionaries. More Biography of Eric Mann: Eric Mann (born December 4, 1942) is a civil rights, anti-war, labor, and environmental organizer. He has worked with the Congress of Racial Equality, Newark Community Union Project, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), the Black Panther Party, the United Automobile Workers (including eight years on auto assembly lines) and the New Directions Movement. He was also active as a leader of SDS faction the Weathermen, which later became the militant left-wing organization Weather Underground. He was arrested in September 1969 for participation in a direct action against the Harvard Center for International Affairs and sentenced to two years in prison on charges of conspiracy to commit murder after two bullets were fired through a window of the Cambridge police headquarters on November 8, 1969. He was instrumental in the movement that helped to keep a General Motors assembly plant in Van Nuys, California open for ten years. Mann has been credited for helping to shape the environmental justice movement in the U.S. He founded the Labor/Community Strategy Center in Los Angeles, California and has been its director for 25 years. In addition, Mann is founder and co-chair of the Bus Riders Union, which sued the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority for what it called “transit racism”, resulting in a precedent-setting civil rights lawsuit, Labor Community Strategy Center et al. v. MTA. Mann is the author of books published by Beacon Press, Harper & Row and the University of California, which include Taking on General Motors; The Seven Components of Transformative Organizing Theory; and Playbook for Progressives: 16 Qualities of the Successful Organizer. He is known for his theory of transformative organizing and leadership of political movements and is acknowledged by many as an veteran organizer on the communist left. ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/
