As New York baked under another summer heat wave, parts of the Riverdale neighborhood in the Bronx, home to a large Jewish community, lost power after Con Edison shut off electricity to protect its equipment.
Con Edison announced the outages Thursday, saying it temporarily cut power to some customers in Riverdale to reduce strain on the electrical grid and speed up service restoration. The utility directed affected residents to report outages and seek relief at city cooling centers.
The outages left parts of Riverdale sweating without air conditioning during a dangerous citywide heat wave. The timing also puts intense pressure on Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
The Democratic Socialist ran on promises to protect ordinary New Yorkers, but a neighborhood-wide shutdown like this directly undercuts that message. As the Bronx neighborhood lost power, preparations continued across town for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden.
The couple is set to marry Friday after hosting a rehearsal dinner Thursday night at the arena’s Infosys Theater. About 1,000 guests are expected to attend the wedding, with the reception scheduled to continue into the early hours of Saturday.
Earlier Friday, Mamdani urged New Yorkers to set their thermostats to 78 degrees, turn off unused lights and electronics, and reduce electricity use as the city faced high demand during the heatwave.

“Ha! Ha! Stupid Jews! I wish I could see their faces!”
The Democrat Platform 2026.
They will vote for it again, just like for Mamdani
I have nothing against Taylor Swift or Travis Kelce, but I’ll bet they won’t be required to keep the air conditioning at 78° in MSG for their events.
The wedding must go on.
***The Democrat Platform 2026.***
The communists have so indoctrinated the public that they no longer need the Jew vote. Sadly, Jews will still vote for the likes of Mamdani.
I do not understand why this wedding (?) is taking place in Madison Square Garden. I’ve read that they are going to have 1000 guests. Madison Square Garden holds more than 19,000 people. There are plenty of venues that are very nice that hold 1000 for dinner.
Do either of these people actually need more publicity than they already get.
The Democrats are becoming the DEMON RAT party!
"They", who?
Jewish western Riverdale voted ~60% for Cuomo/Sliwa and ~35% for Mamdani.
becoming?
You would think the NY Jews would have learned their lesson from WWII to now but still they elect a politician who hates them and demonstrates that every day.
how did they split between Cuomo/Sliwa?
I think it’s 1,000 “guests” and 19,000 servants and staff.
If not enough power can be diverted from orphanages and hospitals to keep the backup on, servants can wave ostrich feathers to keep the couple cool.
Ha, the train left the station on that when “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart” by Elton John and Kiki Dee was on the cassette in the dashboard player in your Pontiac.
At the link, scroll up to the six green precincts in the NW corner of the Bronx to see the exact breakdown.
so 95% of their vote went to the two commies?
Annndddd.... the rest of America doesn’t care about NYC.
Yep they don’t need the Jewish vote but they will still get it.
Might explain why there was a holocaust. There, I’ve said it again.
