CNN was talking to Manu about the bill and had to cut away to Andys soliloquy

There is some irony there with him taking to Spitzer when he was AG and now he has been taken down by Tish James as AG (she’s a badass, btw)

Jen is time limited due to POTUS speech and she's still late and you just know she and KJP and Kate Bedingfield are word for word workshopping their reply to the inevitable Cuomo question

Re: Twitter - I’ve started reporting false news tweets regarding covid misinformation as “it’s abusive or harmful” and then I pick “encouraging self harm or suicide”. Since Twitter doesn’t have a misinformation flag that seems like a fair work around. Appreciate this, every time I go in to report, I just get angry that misinformation still isn’t an option after all this time.

Dr Fauci is meeting with Tik Tok influencers today and will continue to meet with influencers throughout August.
He's working with schools to have covid vaccines required for sports physicals.

Jen, basically: the American people are worried about clean drinking water and safe bridges, they're not spending a ton of time fretting over Andrew Cuomo

Imagine representing a state where crumbling infrastructure just killed 100 people and voting against an infrastructure improvement and investment bill The actual infrastructure that keeps our biggest city from going under water FAILED 2 days ago and Sasse still couldn’t be bothered to vote for this. I wish I was surprised he didn’t, but I’m more surprised that Fischer followed through with one of her talking points. (This is me assuming they voted the same way as with cloture.)

Holy shit I came straight here when I saw cuomo resigned. MH and I literally had a conversation yesterday about how he’d never step down voluntarily.
Tbh I feel Kathy Hochul will do very well in the role. She’s a Buffalo girl and people around here, even though they are heavily R in my area (blue in the city and near universities), are generally ok with her. I think she’ll have more support in the entire state than Cuomo ever had.

Appreciate this, every time I go in to report, I just get angry that misinformation still isn’t an option after all this time. I’ve been screaming about since the deep fake videos of Pelosi and the photoshopped pictures of Obama with horrible foreign leaders. Like why isn’t “this image is not real” not a reporting option??
