he would have to reverse every single one of his positions on NYS/NYC issues, *and* he would have to testify to state legislators who he knows hate him every February to plead for more NYC funding in the state budget I just can't picture it happening

now if you want to start getting into some real weird shit there's this https://www.politico.com/news/2024/09/26/cuomo-mayor-adams-indictment-00181288

ok new press release "I'm giving the mayor a couple days to voluntarily resign before he has to make this any more embarrassing for all of us"

i misunderstood and also didn't realize the gov could pull that particular lever as of earlier today she hadn't said anything worth anything, just kinda the 'let's wait and see' delay stuff because they had a decent relationship

as the kids say, bazinga

STOP THE SAG

I think the public advocate becomes acting mayor

if anyone was wondering (you weren't) this was his crusade in 2009-10

All of his commissioners were resigning one-by-one over the past week, can't say anyone who follows it is surprised. I'm assuming the unsealed charges involve taking/bundling/masking foreign campaign contributions.

I think when hemp was federally legalized it created a completely unregulated side market and the Republicans don't want to revisit it because they don't want to admit they legalized a drug

If anyone was wondering about how the NHLP guy from a couple weeks ago is doing

I'm fine with lifespans and dev times increasing, I consume much less content than 20 years ago and the previous couple consoles seemed to just kinda fly by me without feeling like I got my money's worth.

he probably hasn't slept in two weeks, Lindsey Graham creeping outside his bedroom window tapping on the glass

That is the speculation. He switch from Dem to GOP after being censured for supporting abortion restrictions, but his hypothetical campaign would run to the left of the incumbent mayor. If the GOP sniped this electoral vote at the last minute (it's too late for Maine to match), it'd mean Harris only winning the "blue wall" (WI/MI/PA) swing states would result in a tie (aka a Trump presidency).

Dems breath a sigh of relief

happy birthday @mthor, @EmpressAngel, @CountFrylock, and @Dark_Chii! someone must have been real busy on approximately MLK day

i concur with nameraka, it is his lt. gov after all

NC votes for them separately, that's how they both won because they'd certainly never run on a ticket together.
