O Albany -- isn't the governance of New York as corrupt and unresponsive as any other state's?

California's Democratic Party seems to be equally full of unprincipled careerists and industry-captured lackeys as New York's but with far fewer outright saboteurs and Republican collaborators. And a higher level of basic competence. I would trade in a heartbeat!

There are almost 1000 people infected in NY prisons (staff and people incarcerated). These numbers are only going to get worse, and yet Gov. Cuomo hasn't given a single reprieve or commutation, even though he has the absolute authority to do it. He is responsible for this. https://t.co/XxDDWRvWi5

Of the $10.1 billion in spending cuts Andrew Cuomo will foist on New York, more than $8 billion will be for aid-to-localities. What does this mean? Everything. Public schools, mass transit, social services. The stuff New Yorkers need a budget for.

I know Cuomo is still a goblin, but I can't lie, I love it when it attacks McConnell and Republicans over holding back COVID funding to New York, bringing up that we pay out way more federal money than comes in, year and year out And he reminded that we always fund hurricanes and floods and disasters (rightfully) but now that we need the money, as the hardest hit state, now there's all this bullshit. Glad that someone is actually standing up and fucking saying it.

Is the governor aware that the Hamptons is still New York? These folks have not actually left New York, a thing the governor, without evidence, keeps claiming will happen. https://t.co/HWikkHzsDd

A Ronan Farrow story on Cuomo's questionable tactics against Preet Bharara had been put up on The New Yorker website this morning:

Update: hours after the publication of this story, Andrew Cuomo announced his resignation, saying it will be effective in 14 days.

Fuuuuuck Ronan Farrow. Can we be rid of him too now?

I have a strange respect for him now that I've learned his favorite snack is sardines with cottage cheese.

That's not respect, that's catharsis.

I have to hand it to him though. His instinct for self-promotion as displayed in that tweet is keen.

o. nate, Tuesday, 10 August 2021 19:38 (two years ago) link

I can't stand watching Ronan talk when he's interviewed, but I'm glad he's done some hard work shining a light on horrible people.

Also, lol @ dunking on a writer for self-promotion on Twitter in 2021. C'mon, that's 98% of the timeline.

I meant specifically the implication that his article led directly to Cuomo's resignation.

o. nate, Tuesday, 10 August 2021 19:55 (two years ago) link

I could imagine Cuomo lying low for a few years, getting married, loudly acknowledging how much he learned from his mistakes, and running for office again.

o. nate, Tuesday, 10 August 2021 19:56 (two years ago) link

Oh, haha, I didn't catch that implication at first, but yes that is telling.

Weird detail jumping out at my from that Ronan Farrow article, sorry. Lady who served as the Moreland Commission’s chief of investigations was also Michael Avenatti's lawyer at one point.
