So the president took a dementia test, and then they administered an MRI. Where’s the media on this?

For the third time since I took office, we're funding above the required pension payment — creating a $75M reserve fund for expected costs of adjusting to the Social Security Wage Base.

With this fix in effect, we’re protecting taxpayers and state workers from future shortfalls

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts?

Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

@smith.senate.gov: "I think [Mike Lee] was sort of stunned to be coming face to face with somebody who was really calling him out on his bullshit... The way that people like Mike Lee and others on the right take advantage of the worst kind of human tragedy and political violence... is unacceptable."

Cuomo quietly passed a law shielded nursing home corporations and their CEOs from COVID victims families' lawsuits - as his political machine raked in $2 million from the hospital/nursing home lobby.

Now, voters may reward him by making him their mayor.
“They Can’t Hold The Nursing Homes Responsible”
Across New York state, Cuomo’s nursing home liability shield has caused a legal chilling effect, reducing a deterrent to corporate wrongdoing.

A lawmaker and her husband were murdered. A senator and his wife nearly killed.
The suspect had a hit list.
And what did we do?
We blamed each other. We justified. We spun.

Political violence isn’t coming—it’s here. And we’re normalizing it.
