In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

Like he’s just eating a bowl of rice? There’s a drunk driver? How many hours did this take and who was responsible? I am fascinated

On a basic publicity level this is one of the most weird and amateurish things I’ve ever seen a brand do, let alone a politician. It looks awful, barely a step above jibjab
Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

Can't say I can work up any sympathy...

Can't say it isn't deserved...

Can't say the world isn't better off without him...

Guess I've nothing to say.

Prisons are the major industry in Huntsville, and Cooper used to work for the Texas prison system before going to LaSalle -- but this year TDCJ said it wasn't going to use private prisons anymore because they weren't proving cost effective. So I am v curious what would have brought him there!

Executive director the private prison company LaSalle Corrections - a major ICE contractor - died this week in a plane crash while traveling from Huntsville, TX to Louisiana.

This might seem minor but... I'm so curious why he was flying from Huntsville TX (hq of the TX prison system) to Louisiana

Reminder that for Aristotle the only difference between good and bad regimes is the virtue (or lack thereof) of the rulers.

There’s no institutional difference between kingship and tyranny.
The destruction of the East Wing is a reminder that America has violated the only check-and-balance that actually ends up mattering: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-only-c...

Hamburger Helper...

You're still paying stupid prices for the "hamburger"...

Unless, you're just having the Helper without the optional Hamburger... 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Fucking eschew beef. Other proteins are demonstrably healthier anyway.

The cases were “resolved” by Cuomo hounding Bennet for years, at taxpayer’s expense, including with a retaliatory defamation lawsuit that he filed *after* the attorney general found that he had sexually harassed her.
wow. zohran brought one of cuomo’s accusers, charlotte bennett, to the mayoral debate. he asked cuomo what he would say to his 13 accusers of sexual harassment. cuomo said it takes “a certain level of maturity to work in government” and that the cases were resolved anyway. fucking scum.

such an important window into how convictions are obtained in this country, check out the whole thread:
The only witness to testify about Huguley’s death was Boyd’s co-defendant, Quintay Cox. Cox had tried to back out of the plea deal but changed his mind under threat of the electric chair. On the stand, Cox admitted to changing his story once he got the deal.

Earlier this week, ICE grabbed another Russian dissident, in this case a decolonization activist from the Buryat community. If his case goes the way of Artyom Vovchenko and Leonid Melekhin, he could soon be deported and left to rot in a Russian prison. meduza.io/en/brief/202...
