Gov. Cuomo and Mayor Dyster were engaged in some small talk over lunch after a grueling five minute meeting over the missing casino revenue, and began discussing their future retirement plans.

“I don’t think I’ll ever retire, but if I do, it will be after eight years in the White House,” declared Gov. Cuomo, “and how about you, Mayor?”

Mayor Dyster said, “I’ve always wanted to buy a motorcycle, and ride like I don’t have a care in the world.”

At that, Cuomo’s face fell and he had a faraway look in his eyes. “You know, my older brother was killed in a horrific motorcycle crash. Under no circumstances should you buy a motorcycle.

“You can have his.”

The governor’s kid brother is CNN anchor Chris Cuomo. Can you imagine the favorable treatment Gov. Cuomo is going to get from little brother Chris on the 24-hour news network when he runs for president? In fact, that’s why their parents had him.

***

Somebody asked Gov. Cuomo if he was going to help all his top aides who fell on their swords for him, serving lengthy prison terms for corruption while he runs for the White House.

“It’s not a fair request,” the governor protested, “they got paid when the state got paid. Why would I ever guarantee their loss?”

***

It was decided, in order to maximize Gov. Cuomo’s presidential campaign fund, every female working on his election staff was to prostitute herself at least one day a week, and donate the proceeds as a campaign contribution.

As one can imagine, most of the women were not very good at being prostitutes, or at least, not as skilled at it as the politician they worked for, and their lack of experience soon was manifested in complaints by the men employing their services. A group of the men went to the governor’s office to demand their money back.

“You know,” laughed the Governor, refusing to see them, “Maybe they want to make up the shortfall to me.”

***

Three new City Council members traveled to Albany to demand that Governor Cuomo address the fact that the state drains tens of millions of dollars from the city of Niagara Falls every year, through its monopoly on parking and food service in Niagara Falls State Park and hydropower from the Power Project. They wanted to tell the governor that some of that money should be used to balance the city’s budget.

“You know,” laughed the Governor, refusing to see them, “Maybe they want to make up the shortfall to me.”

Craig Bucki Stands Out in Race for Supreme Court, Has All the Tools to Be Strong Judge

By tony Farina · September 16, 2026

By Tony Farina I’ve covered many court proceedings and trials in my more than 35 years as a newspaper and television reporter and I want to make the point at the beginning of this story that whether elected or appointed, some judges are fair and honest and many others fall short of the mark. In other words, the word jurist does not convey skill and knowledge of the law; it is just a role that some serve with distinction, and others do not. By definition, a jurist is a person who has expert or thorough knowledge of the law but

Is Niagara Falls Crisis Self-Inflicted? Lots of Questions, Few Answers

By tony Farina · September 15, 2026

By Tony Farina There are certainly many questions swirling around the mayor’s declaration of a state of emergency in Niagara Falls over trash, blight, and deteriorating streets that was declared back on July 20 and has been extended several times since because, according to Mayor Robert Restaino, the City Council refused to approve contractor agreements. But some observers point to depleted staff at City Hall, like in Public Works and Code Enforcement and other departments, as really self-inflicted wounds that are the underlying reasons work is not getting done in the city. Or is there even more to the story,

NIAGARA FALLS BUILT THE MODERN WORLD ON ITS POWER. IT CAN DO IT AGAIN.

The Data Center That Answers Hochul’s Objections There was a time when Niagara Falls did not ask Albany whether it was permitted to prosper. The river was here. That was enough. The town had something Albany couldn’t give it. It used what was here. Water. Power. Work. Jobs. Industry. A future. In 1895, the Adams plant took the river and put it into wire. The current went to Buffalo. It changed the industrial world. Tesla supplied the designs. Westinghouse built the machines. Niagara supplied the falling water. Then industries came. Electrochemical. Electrometallurgical. They came because Niagara offered abundant, inexpensive electricity.

Niagara Falls Has Millions of Tourists But Needs to Find a Way to Capture That Wealth

By tony Farina · September 8, 2026

By Tony Farina The City of Niagara Falls, N.Y., boasts one of the world’s greatest natural wonders that people from around the world come to see, but despite incredible tourism numbers of more than nine million visitors a year, the city of now less than 50,000 people is still pretty darn poor. Niagara Falls does not have a tourism problem; it has a tourism-capture problem, and the distinction should be a starting point for a serious new discussion about the city’s future. And ladies and gentlemen, that discussion needs to start now. The question is no longer whether Niagara Falls
