Inside political circles, AOC’s aloof style becomes a factor

LEFT GUARD: The battle to own the progressive lane in the 2028 Democratic presidential primary is already brewing, with allies of Bronx Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and California Rep. Ro Khanna launching recruitment efforts seeking to nudge them both into the race. The rival efforts are laying bare the aloof, tight-lipped way AOC’s political team operates behind the scenes as she continues to weigh whether to run for president or Senate. And the recruitment bids are also showing the central role of New York in the early days of the 2028 race. Last week, former NYC-DSA-endorsed Rep. Jamaal Bowman and Democratic strategist Nomiki Konst, two longtime operatives in New York politics, launched “Run Ro,” a new outside group aiming to push Khanna to run for president. And on Monday, progressives including Ravi Sahai, a former 2025 campaign staffer for Mayor Zohran Mamdani, launched “Ready for AOC.” New York City Democratic Socialists of America co-chairs Gustavo Gordillo and Grace Mausser are also behind the pro-AOC effort, two people familiar with the matter said. The move from Bowman and Konst to get behind Khanna — instead of their fellow New Yorker — has bewildered some in the state’s left-leaning political ecosystem. “It’s weird,”

Bunga, Blazers breeze through Tuckahoe to advance to regional finals

CROSS RIVER – Serena Bunga has seen everything on the court in her time with the Millbrook girls volleyball team. Section championships, trips to the state final four and countless victories have been a part of the journey. It had been a while though, 2023 to be exact, since the senior relished in postseason success. She wasn't going to walk away without experiencing the joy of going deep into the postseason just one more time. Following up the team's Section 9 Class C championship the previous week, Millbrook showed its talent and resiliency once again by securing a 3-1 victory over Section 1's Tuckahoe in the New York State subregional at John Jay-Cross River on Wednesday afternoon, November 11. "It's something that we all really want to push towards and go to states again," Bunga said after the win, describing the team's determination. "We just think it's such an amazing feeling because our team is so close-knit. We love being with each other and playing with each other." The Blazers secured an early lead after a back-and-forth opening set and it looked as if the team was on its way to a sweep with a significant lead in the second.

Feta, holiday orders, and going nuts for nuts!

This week I have a hankering for feta so, of course, I’m headed right to Maplebrook Farm Creamery! This green feta diplooks absolutely mouthwatering, and will be a cinch to make once I’ve picked up some White Moustache Greek yogurt and Halal Pastures Farm herbs and garlic. I think I even spy some gorgeous, pink-flecked castelfranco radicchio in the photo of the veggie board to serve it with — and believe it or not, Titusville Farm has that exact kind! It’s an heirloom Italian variety also known as the “Tulip of Winter” or “Winter Rose”, and it’s milder and sweeter than its purple counterparts. Give it a try with your green feta dip. I’ll also be cutting up some Titusville French breakfast radishes, and enormous Madura Farm celery, to pair alongside this creamy spread. As for something salty? There’s the must-try garbanzo bean chips from SAHA Guys! And hey, why not pick up some of their hummus, too, for when your homemade dip runs out?
