Yes. And
I don’t think a lot of pundits understand how damn much political capital Cuomo has among NYC voters-ESPECIALLY senior citizens. Who vote much more reliably than the youngs.
A huge, huge, huge amount of political capital. For being upfront about covid. For taking charge.
A lot of us New Yorkers were absofuckinglutely pissed at our Senator, @SenGillibrand, for being knives out for Franken.
We also see the recall attempts on Governor Newsom, and it’s hard to not question how much of the Cuomo narrative is just political ratfuckery, which we are very well acquainted with in NY.
If he broke the law, he needs to go.
But he deserves due process.
I’d like to tell you a little story about the 2010 NY gov race.
Involves ratfuckery. Who from? Roger Stone and his ***insurrection date****, Manhattan Madame Kristin Davis.
2010 gov race
NY is a blue state
We always vote for Democratic governors. Why...because the majority of the state’s population = Democratic voters.
So. How could a Republican ever win the governorship?
Only with ratfuckery
Enter Roger Stone and his friends. Robert Mercer. Caputo.
Remember, @HillaryClinton was our Senator.
What those goons did in 2010 NY gov race ratfucked attempt is literally the exact playbook those *SAME GOONS* ran for Trump and won with in 2016.
So, we’ve seen a fuckton of ratfuckery, and, we tend to “know it when we see it”
I live in a building that is what is called a Naturally Occurring Retirement Community. My building is chock full of olds.
I’ve lived in this building for nearly 2 decades. I know most of my...
... neighbors.
Most still love Cuomo.
Many credit him for their still being alive. All the olds I know in my building are now vaccinated.
...
Good luck ratfucking that political capital.
They know he’s an asshole.
They don’t care that he’s an asshole.
He’s an effective asshole, and he’s theirs.
P.S. I still believe Schneiderman deserved due process

Did Trump & Bannon talk about Jan 6, before Jan 6?
We know @BorisEP and Bannon spoke about Jan 6 before Jan 6, and Boris was working for Trump at the time. Receipt in reply.
I always find it interesting when people try to claim transgender people are a new phenomenon when other cultures have had culturally accepted forms of trans individuals for *centuries*
For example, in Albania: gq.com/story/burrnesh…
India, note how colonizers tried to end third gender culture:
