A controller is a senior finance position that oversees most of the accounting operations within an organization

What I love most about this is that it doesn't feel like a campaign ad. It genuinely feels like Mamdani is lending his platform to Shakira to tell her story as an average American experiencing life in ways we can relate to and it happens to highlight issues that need to be protected and/or expanded

It's no surprise that Cuomo is out of touch with the average NYC resident. As governor of NY, the only touching he was doing was of the inappropriate variety

No but really, the selling point of a government job was that it was stable, has good benefits and clear promotion criteria. It wasn't high paying sure, but you could feasibly retire without worrying too much back in the day

Independently or as confused Russian citizens?

Thanks for including this. I realized I couldn't edit, but this is an important piece. Not just that he *can* promote Cannon, but because of his constant praise, it seems likely he would.

Yes, the argument is that Trump hired Cannon to her job. When he was on trial for stealing the classified documents, Cannon ruled that he was illegally charged. Trump is running for President and if he wins, he can promote her. So basically it *looks* bad for her to be on this case
