Who's up and who's down this week?

A state Supreme Court justice dismissed the charges against Rensselaer County District Attorney Joseph Abelove for allegedly lying to a grand jury and mishandling the investigation of a shooting of an unarmed black man. Abelove did not miss an opportunity to paint the case against him as a political maneuver or relish in former Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s fate, calling the the case a “political hit” by the “now disgraced” Schneiderman, who’s got “legal problems of his own.”

Fourteen years after Rep. Yvette Clarke narrowly lost her primary bid against an established incumbent, Clarke is now being challenged by a young, progressive insurgent – and he’s garnering national support. The New York Times endorsed Clarke’s challenger, activist Adem Bunkeddeko, in the primary race. An endorsement from the Times isn’t too shabby for a first-time candidate.

JCOPE, the state ethics board, cleared the former Cuomo aide of charges of sexual harassment and assault. But Cuomo's gubernatorial opponents have said J-NOPE, accusing the commission of corruption because its executive director used to be acting counsel to – you guessed it – Cuomo. But for now Hoyt, who isn't new to sexual misconduct scandals, can sit back and enjoy the ruling.

Political organizers, take notes. Jones from the Community Service Society and Raskin from the Riders Alliance teamed up to get New York City to fund half-priced MetroCards for low-income New Yorkers. And now it’s funded in the budget to the tune of $106 million, over de Blasio’s initial objections. Unlike the mayor, Jones and Raskin, knew a millionaire’s tax had a snowball’s chance in a summer subway tunnel, and worked to earned the support of this very publication, tons of advocacy groups, and 94 percent of the City Council.

Perez Williams entered the Democratic congressional primary less than two weeks before petitioning. She was the favorite of the national Democratic Party, but she had little local support, which had already gone to primary rival Dana Balter. In fact, Perez Williams almost didn’t it onto the ballot since nearly 2,000 of her petition signatures were thrown out. But all that is yesterday’s news. A new poll from Siena College shows Perez Williams with a decisive 13-point lead over Balter despite the late start and initial setbacks.

In case there was any question about this, Pam taught us all a lesson: Stealing $25,000 in FEMA funds, then pillaging a children’s charity, and then spending those ill-gotten gains on pretty underwear and vacations … that’s a no-no. The former Brooklyn assemblywoman pleaded guilty to the crimes and now faces up to 30 years in prison. We hope it’s somehow worth it Pam, but that would be one heck of a brassiere.

When Siena College posted its latest gubernatorial poll, Cynthia Nixon put out a campaign press release asserting that Gov. Andrew Cuomo “did not expand his lead by a statistically significant margin from Siena’s last poll in April.” Marcus Molinaro tried to change the subject by rolling out a few campaign staffing announcements. But the biggest news was unavoidable – the incumbent enjoys a 19-point lead over Molinaro with general election voters and a 35-point lead over Nixon among Democrats.

Sure, maybe city workers shouldn't use city-owned vehicles for personal business. But it does sting when the mayor does the exact same thing while Salamone got served a $1,000 fine. Salamone, a city driver, got the fine for taking pit stops at the gym in his city-owned truck during his breaks. De Blasio, meanwhile, frequently rides to his Park Slope gym in a police caravan. Tale of two cities indeed.

Nobody digs up oppo like an upstart congressional campaign fueled by beer. Primary challenger Suraj Patel put the venerable Upper East Side congresswoman on the defensive this week, asking her about the time she wore a Muslim burqa on the House floor, her photo-op with a problematic Filipino official and Maloney’s repeated skepticism on the safety of vaccines. Patel’s proving to be more than just a pushover, making Maloney focus more on campaigning and less on pandas.

Schneiderman may be gone, but his replacement, Barbara Underwood, is no slump when it comes to taking on the president. In an attention-grabbing move, the new state attorney general filed a lawsuit to shut down the Trump Foundation and bar the president – and his children Don Jr., Eric and Ivanka – from serving on nonprofit organizations. Plus, Michael Cohen might flip on Trump like a IHOb burger on the 4th of July.
