BACK AT APPLE FARM AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED--VAN LEEWEN ICE CREAM
CURRENTLY HOT ON LOCAL SOCIAL MEDIA
***The school candidates forum at the Episcopal church (St. Augustine) was very well attended; lots of chatter--and positive adjectives---thoughtful candidates, well moderated by Croton Community Coalition, etc. You should have no problem finding this across multiple village pages, forums, etc. Do your own diligence.
***Bots, bots, everywhere a facebook bot....no further comment necessary.
***Jacob Day apparently had a recent kickoff that was very well attended. Lots of positive Day chatter.
***Summerfest chatter. Lots of excitement about warmer days and Summerfest. Talk about honoring former mayor Greg Schmidt as a future Grand Marshall in the parade....
***Lots of anti Hasan Pike Chatter; not going to bother with any of it; you'll find this easily across multiple pages, media, etc.
***Few attempts, at least locally, to defend the SPLC. Not going to bother with any of it. It's out of our hands.

MINNESOTA LAWMAKERS DEMAND RECORDS AFTER REP ILHAN OMAR SKIPS FRAUD HEARING
THIS WEEK'S 250TH ANNIVERSARY--WHERE HISTORY LIVES--INSTALLMENT---TOWN OF CORTLANDT---IS CROTON'S VAN CORTLANDT MANOR!
Van Cortlandt Manor, is a 175-acre National Historic Landmark site, owned by the not-for-profit education organization.
The first Van Cortlandt in America, Oloff, came to New Amsterdam in 1638 as an employee of the Dutch West India Company. When the Company permitted independent businesses, he left the Company and began a career as a merchant, achieving both wealth and prominence as a merchant and politician. After the English took control of New York, he became an alderman and deputy Mayor. In 1642, he married Annette Lookermanns, the daughter of a well-to-do Dutch merchant. Their children married into other large Hudson Valley landholders' families and soon the Van Cortlandt family was connected by marriage with most of the eminent New York families of the time. Oloff's oldest son, Stephanus, pursued careers in business and politics concurrently. He, too, married well. His wife was Gertruyd Schuyler. Among his political accomplishments, he held the position of Mayor of New York and Chief Justice of the New York Provincial Supreme Court, the latter being one of the highest honors being accorded to a colonial.

IN THE NEWS---HARVARD STUDENTS REVOLT OVER NEW GRADING POLICTY THEY CALL "RACIST"
Some Harvard students have launched a petition urging the university to abandon plans to pursue grading reform, calling it "racist."
"This petition calls on Harvard to reject the proposed grading policy, arguing that it is not merely flawed but racially harmful in effect," a petition on Change.org started by Angelina Agostini, a freshman at Harvard College, reads.
"We center racism as a core concern, contending that although the policy is framed as neutral ‘differentiation,’ it functions as a system of ranking and sorting that mirrors and reinforces existing racial and socioeconomic hierarchies," the petition reads. ..."READ MORE AT Harvard students revolt over new grading policy they call 'racist'
