Today's Big Stories

1. New York health officials urge caution with 'tridemic'

Public health officials in New York are urging people to take precautions this winter amid a "tridemic" of illnesses: COVID-19, the flu and respiratory syncytial virus, known as RSV. 

Those precautions include many of the suggestions that had been issued even before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic ahead of every flu season: Wash your hands, sneeze and cough into the crook of your arm and stay home if you are sick. 

2. Report: Classified items found at Trump storage unit in Fla.

Lawyers for former President Donald Trump found at least two items marked as classified during a recent search of a storage unit in West Palm Beach, Florida, and have provided them to the FBI, according to a report from The Washington Post.

The Post, citing anonymous sources, reported that the items were discovered by an outside team brought in by Trump's representatives to search his other properties for any additional classified materials. The nature of the classified materials was not immediately clear, but the storage unit in which they were found had been used to hold items from an office in northern Virginia used by Trump staffers after he left office, the newspaper said.

3.  Andrea Stewart-Cousins re-elected New York Senate Democratic leader

A decade ago, Democrats in the state Senate in New York were in the political wilderness. Its leadership was scarred by scandal. A faction of Democratic lawmakers sided with Republicans. A Democratic governor showed little interest in helping them win a majority. 

At the time, the party turned to Yonkers state Sen. Andrea Stewart-Cousins to lead them. Ten years later, Democrats hold a large majority that was nearly impervious to the down-ballot troubles faced by the party this election cycle and could potentially keep its supermajority. 

4. Adams chides critics, media for 'sensationalism' over new mental illness policy

As pushback mounts over Mayor Eric Adams’ new plan to involuntarily hospitalize some New Yorkers in severe mental crisis, Adams this morning looked to clarify what he considered misconceptions about the strategy.

During an interview on “Mornings On 1,” Adams said the directive is far more limited in scope than what he described as media “sensationalism.”

5. Reports: Aaron Judge staying with Yankees, signing 9-year deal

Aaron Judge is reportedly staying in pinstripes.

The reigning AL MVP has reached an agreement with the Yankees on a nine-year, $360 million contract, according to multiple published reports.

6. Mayor Eric Adams fined over rat infestation at his own house

Mayor Eric Adams is such an enemy of rats that he once called a press conference to demonstrate a contraption for drowning them in poison. Now Adams finds himself contesting a $300 fine issued by his own administration over a rat infestation at a building he owns in Brooklyn.

Adams was issued a summons by the city health department on May 10 after a health inspector spotted “fresh rat droppings” at his townhouse on Lafayette Avenue in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, the Associated Press reported, citing a New York Times report.

7. Greek Orthodox church at World Trade Center reopens at last

More than two decades after a tiny Greek Orthodox church in lower Manhattan was destroyed by the falling south tower of the World Trade Center, that church's far grander replacement opened to the public this week in an elevated park overlooking the rebuilt trade center's memorial plaza.

The new St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine hosted its first liturgy service on Tuesday to mark the Feast of St. Nicholas, and is preparing to welcome visitors of all faiths who want to remember the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
