I’LL SUPPORT THIS, SO LONG AS THE MAYOR HAS TO SPEND AN HOUR IN THE STOCKS IN CENTRAL PARK FOR EVERY HOUR THE POWER GOES OUT ON HIS WATCH: NYC Mayor Suggests ConEd Takeover After Heat Forces Shutdown.

OPEN THREAD: Play nice.
Six men were arrested on Monday night as Hong Kong police began hunting down the mob responsible for an unprecedented rampage at a train station in the northern town of Yuen Long that left 45 people injured the night before.
Sources told the Post more than 100 men in white T-shirts were involved in Sunday night’s bloody violence, including members of the notorious 14K and Wo Shing Wo triad gangs. The city’s embattled police force came under heavy fire for turning up too late to stop the shocking attacks on anti-government protesters, journalists and passers-by at the station, as well as terrified passengers on trains.
The six men – arrested for unlawful assembly – were aged 24-54. Some of them had triad backgrounds, while others were drivers, hawkers, renovation workers or unemployed.
The triads are an open secret, not a real secret. They can be held accountable if there’s the will. But they’re operating at the behest of the PRC government, which they expect will protect them.

SPARTACUS ROARS: Cory Booker Would Never Punch Trump, That Fat Old Body-Shamer.
Let’s take a moment to imagine any Republican going on national TV and saying something like this about a Democratic POTUS. And let’s take another moment to contemplate the amusing idea of Cory Booker possessing testosterone.
Anyway, Booker would never punch Trump. That would be beneath him. But what’s wrong with getting a round of applause from a liberal NYC audience, and a warm, friendly smile from Seth Meyers, for talking about punching Donald Trump?
Plus, Trump is old and out of shape. What does Booker look like, a body-shamer?
Meyers is a good little Democrat and teed that right up for him, and Booker still botched it. Fortunately for him, nobody watches late-night TV anymore.
