Blasio's probes -- Times' William Rashbaum, J. David Goodman and William Neuman: "[H]istorians have been hard-pressed to find a mayor who, along with his administration and inner circle, was ever the subject of as many simultaneous investigations - conducted by as many different agencies - as Mayor Bill de Blasio now faces. 'I can't recall any other sort of perfect storm like this, coming from all those different angles,' said Daniel Czitrom, a professor of history at Mount Holyoke College and the author of 'New York Exposed: The Gilded Age Police Scandal That Launched the Progressive Era.' In recent weeks, no fewer than five separate inquiries - involving at least six different federal, state and local law enforcement and regulatory agencies - have come to light. Four of these investigations are focused on possible violations of criminal law." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d4170be9c9029c9b9f5df826e1549f1da0871ef59365b7fa7a -- "Controversial de Blasio criminal referral followed official's pattern," by POLITICO New York's Bill Mahoney: http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d4a30c8745631ca2232eb37f71d02f030b05fc6cb6d6006c47 DEFENSE -- Swarmed by reporters, mayor calls it 'legal and appropriate' -- POLITICO New York's Laura Nahmias: De Blasio, who avoided reporters' questions Wednesday, was swarmed by reporters on Thursday outside the Stella and Charles Guttman Community College, after an unrelated event. ... De Blasio himself has not been named in a subpoena, he told ABC7 reporter Dave Evans. "You were not subpoenaed?" Evans asked. "I was not," de Blasio replied. De Blasio didn't directly answer a follow-up question about whether the investigation gives off an unseemly appearance. "Again I'm very, very comfortable that everything we've done is legal and appropriate, and we're going to fully cooperate," he said as he climbed into his SUV. http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d41d7d8f78aaea747ee54d9300af077d62444369998c3aeac9 TABS -- Daily News: "Bratton to mom-&-pop shops: "DROP DEAD: Commish thumbs nose at small businesses victimized by 'selective enforcement' of broken windows policy" -- Post: "Alzheimer's played for laughs: GIPPER FLICK FURY: Hollywood comedy to mock Reagan" -- SEE THEM: http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d4dcffc6f74db971cfefd6f917b0638f03ea7d1929106167c5 -- amNY: "DRINK UP!

"Our business is seasonal. We ramp up and down for the summits and do not stay in a steady state in staffing," Brown told POLITICO's Joe Pompeo. "If you ask any live event company, staffing is an accordion model of gaining and retracting." Brown referred us to Casey Baltes, TBLM's general manager, for specifics about staffing levels and the state of the business, in which The New York Times made a low seven-figure investment in 2014, but Baltes didn't respond. (Nor did Maloney.) When we profiled TBLM last year (http://politi.co/23bmdZB), the company said Women in the World, which also has summits in Delhi and London, "has been consistently profitable since its inception" in 2009. -- "Introducing the 2016 Nation Student Journalism Conference: Bringing Together the Next Generation of Independent Journalists": For the first time [on June 3], The Nation ... is bringing together the next generation of independent journalists to learn more about social movements, their historic and contemporary impact on electoral politics, and how journalists can better cover them."

Charles Schumer has a massive fundraising advantage over his opponent, having brought in almost 900 times as much in contributions as Republican Wendy Long ... Long loaned her campaign $30,200, bringing her total campaign debt to $312,746. Without accounting for this debt, she has $24,822 in the bank to Schumer's $26.1 million. http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d4a7c383a31a0eaf3b6e65ebdb8108faf5a41fb0bdab338177 INTERNAL DOCUMENTS -- How City Hall tried stopping horse carriages -- NY1's Josh Robin: "[N]ew documents NY1 obtained under the Freedom of Information Law are shedding light on how the administration angled to end the industry. Supporters of the proposed ban cast it as a moral mission for the animals, not real estate. However, a presentation from the anti-carriage group NYCLASS argues if electric cars replace carriage horses, the 'business structure would generate higher revenues for both owners and the city.' Emails also show the executive director of NYCLASS emailed top de Blasio officials, trying to influence legislation. Around this time, the mayor and his group Campaign for One New York received tens of thousands of dollars from those aiming to ban carriages." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d438cd14c84cdd892ad94f0f49fd58b2ac78f7829ad1648194 MEET THE SYRACUSE EX-COP AND STATE INVESTIGATOR WHO WORKED 26 HOURS IN A DAY - Syracuse Post-Standard's John O'Brien: "It was an impossible day for Syracuse police Sgt. Tom Connellan: Nov. 17, 2014. He worked 26 hours that day. That's according to payroll documents he submitted to the city and state. Connellan claimed he was working two jobs simultaneously that day, according to payroll records. His shift as the police department spokesman was 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., according to the records. The same day, he said he worked as an ATM inspector for the state Department of Financial Services in the exact same hours, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., according to time sheets he submitted to the agency." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d41d58d6bae393aa9697c2829558f8b638a02e74199c596bc7 SKELOS ASKS JUDGE TO GO EASY ON PENSION - Gannett's Jon Campbell: "Attorneys for former state Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos says the convicted lawmaker shouldn't face a major fine just because he will still collect a $95,832-a-year public pension. U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara's office is seeking a $500,000 fine against Skelos, a Nassau County Republican, as a way to balance out his lucrative, taxpayer-funded retirement benefits, which he will continue to receive despite his conviction last year. In a court filing Wednesday, Skelos' attorneys G. Robert Gage and Joseph Evans argued that such a fine would "undermine" the state constitution, which doesn't allow a judge to strip pension benefits promised to public employees who entered the state retirement system before 2011."http://lohud.us/1T8cPQV REAL ESTATE - "Port to do 'some sort' of World Trade Center PATH Hub ceremony in May," by POLITICO New York's Dana Rubinstein: "The Port Authority plans to finally celebrate the Santiago Calatrava-designed World Trade Center PATH Hub - the white, arched-steel colossus that the Port was not originally inclined to publicly celebrate at all. 'We are hoping for a ceremony of some sort in May in connection with the board meeting,' said John Degnan, the Port Authority's chairman, following a board meeting Thursday. The next board meeting is scheduled for May 26. That there is a celebration at all represents something of a victory for the World Trade Center staff, who were said to be unhappy when authority executive director Pat Foye dubbed the hub a 'symbol of excess' and put the kibosh on any commemoration of the roughly $4 billion, vastly over budget, behind-schedule project."http://politi.co/24nJ06W -"NYU Langone Opening New Facility With Nearly 390K-SF Lease," by Commercial Observer's Liam La Guerre: "NYU Langone Medical Center has signed a 30-year, triple-net lease for Columbia Property Trust's entire 25-story building at 222 East 41st Street, the landlord announced today. The hospital will open a new facility in the 389,522-square-foot office property between Second Avenue and Tunnel Exit Street at the end of the year, following the October expiration of law firm Jones Day's 353,541-square-foot lease. (Jones Day is moving to 4 Brookfield Place, as CO previously reported). The medical center will occupy the lobby, common areas and the parking garage in addition to all 25 floors. There will be a combination of medical offices and ambulatory care facilities in the building. NYU Langone's main medical campus is located between First Avenue and the FDR Drive from East 30th to East 33rd Streets." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=66d7c47f9ea007d42bb2c3030604ccfa6b9b92d919821087bc43c52dda0b900b MOCK 2017 -- At Columbia's School of International Public Affairs last night, lecturer Karine Jean-Pierre -- who worked for President Obama, Martin O'Malley, Letitia James and Bill Thompson -- had students present campaign strategies for four potential 2017 mayoral candidates.
