After #Nixon left office, his #AG #JohnMitchell was convicted of crimes relating to the reelection. He was imprisoned and disbarred. Nixon never got in trouble.

You work for a 34 x felon who never spent a day in jail. Ever wonder what’s going to happen you?

Three cheers for MIT. When the White House tried to buy obedience with funding strings...MIT said, “Hell No!” Merit over mandates. Freedom over control. Finally...an institution with the guts to tell power where to shove its politics.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

With Eric Adams out of the race, Cuomo's gaining ground, pulling 33% support from NYC voters, per a new Quinnipiac poll. That compares to the 23% he pulled last month when Adams was still in.

Regardless, Cuomo remains well behind Mamdani, who's got 46% support, per the new poll.
