      The result of centuries of machine politics. A party full of people with tepid porridge for brains there not for their skills or grassroots building but because of who their husband is.

          Okay so there’s this financial disclosure that every NYS employee has to fill out if they earn over ~$111K or are deemed a “policymaker” that list every investment they own. Even if it’s just bog standard pension funds or open market index funds, have to list it every year, and it’s made public.

          Back when he was governor, Cuomo’s every year would list that he owned no investments doubt

    Ah yes I do love the blacks. I am a democrat and totally not a racist. Oh black youth, have you heard of the wondrous invention of the computer?

      It was wild during the East kingdom and West kingdom battles of the 90s seeing all those messenger pigeons flying back and forth. But it was a great time when me and the serfs were playing this banger in the great feuds.

      My father used to be a cheese chopper before the bodega owners brought in the automated guilotene. If only it could be used for something else.

      Tried to extend the autocomplete bit, but my phone is too much of a comrade:

    Once again new york state being a case study on why "vote blue not matter who" is an ineffective strategy.

    You just end up electing fascists who call themselves democrats.

    A self own of your own education curriculum in the state that you govern IF this was remotely close to reality.

    Like there's no reasonable interpretation of this claim that doesn't make you look bad. At worst a racist, at best an incompetent governor.
