“he was such a great criminal. I pardon him” trumpolini …
NY is lucky to have her Sadly the men before her are so sad to learn that these fellows could not handle the power. Like I said NY is lucky to have her.
Sadly the 3 consecutive NYS Governors have committed actions above the law, Spitzer, Paterson and Cuomo. For Paterson, it’s not even his own term and the illicit actions committed by him didn’t allow him to run for a term of his own.
Rob Bentley of Alabama (2011-2017) and Jim Guy Tucker of Arkansas (1992-1996) both forced to resign due to being accused for illicit actions. Kay Ivey took over and secured a term of her own in 2018 and Mike Huckabee took over in 1996 and elected to 2 terms of his own on 1998 and 2002 (Arkansas has a two terms for life limitation).
She’ll be kicked out probably by a man in the next elections
In Australia we’d call that doing a Bradbury. Winning an Olympic gold medal because all the opposition fell over.
Not wrong. Wondering why he wasn’t in Tokyo🤣😂🤣🇦🇺
lol
@Jesse Caple He fell over getting on the plane.
@Colin Connelly 🤣😂😏
Brilliant survey of the patriarchy
We are witnessing the syphilitic flowering of patriarchy. Just in the last few weeks, A Cardinal, A Prince and NY Gov, all brought down due to abhorrent sexual behavior.
@Artstrology Sounds like the beginning of a joke… A very sick joke.
A Cardinal, a Prince, and a NY Gov walk into a bar…
If you whine about something long enough, you too can play the victim!
@Gheorge Muresan Update: The victims are not playing, and neither are their allies. Crawl back into the hole, is the best advice I can give, the syphilitic flowering of the patriarchy is upon us. It is Your Doom.
@Artstrology lol @ NPC projections
I’m just glad Rachel is acknowledging Cuomo isn’t perfect after covering for him for MONTHS
I hope you had an EXCELLENT VACATION, Rachel 😊❤🙏👍
Could have been a lot longer. I think we deserve her taking a longer vacation
These days, it’s like a *Niagara* of Watergates. Corruption everywhere.
You must ask Don the Con !
We are in the process of removing all of the old white guys who felt they had the privilege of not only having there way with women in the workplace but also any other rules that kept them from getting whatever their ID wanted to possess or control.
And yes, we will need a movement as strong and swift as the Mighty Niagara to finish the job!
@B Tiger Don’t ask him any questions, he’ll tell you only lies.
A long history of corruption! The American way.
That was how Trump was elected !
in summary you have some very sick and/or depraved Men in NY politics, maybe even US politics? After all a country who can elect Trump as president has some serious internal issues!!
@CuriousNerdKitteh lol
Every country has those. Italy, the Netherlands, England are some that have depraved men who abuse power. Stop turning it into a nation issue.
We just need to let all the ladies lead for a while. Like 2 hundred years…
How about saying the truth – that anyone anywhere in the world on any level who has power over someone is capable of this behavior.
Thank goodness it is not always the case.
Trump wasn’t nearly as bad as he was shown on media.. you have all been believing a lie… remember you wanted CUOMO AS PRESIDENT? So much for you being brainwashed.
Last woman standing? Mind boggling. Thanks for putting this in perspective.
No one can “connect the dots” quite like Rachel. I also love the way she emphasizes “profoundly pornographic” at 3:22 plus how she wraps everything up at 11:28
Agree. Rachel is a great anchor.
True word smithing at it’s best. She’s so great and logical.
She’s certainly not got the problem of having a lot of hard acts follow.
LOL
Thanks for the laugh!
You got that right, lol!!
I listened four times, trying to connect the dots… then once again the next day. How sickeningly dreadful. Nobody without background awareness would believe this ghastly.saga as a movie script.
another nice one , rachel. let s hope kathy hochul brings the spine for the governorship
Rachel ,your final statement said it all, what a catalogue of unpleasant damaging behaviour, but it seems it takes this degree of damage and reprehensible behaviour for a woman to be given the job .
Hopefully she chooses a woman to be Lt. Gov.
The men can’t keep it in their pants.
cant wait to see what crimes she gets up to …. lol
Thats simply asinine
I would like these so called “men” to spend a week at Rikers Island, showering with the rest of the convicts… soap dropping at least twice a day.
It’s sad that so many “men” feel they have to behave badly against women, to feel manly themselves.
Because they usually get away with it completely. Like Bret Kavinaugh.
@Val Zee and trump
💯 your comment is so accurate
Just came here for the TDS
And I wonder why government is broken? Power Corrupts.
And that’s without mentioning unrelated NY scandals like Anthony Wiener’s “photo shoot”.
“Most people can endure adversity; if you want to test someone’s character, give them power.”
Yeap !!
