Reporters who covered him didn't ask Cuomo questions so much as swoon in his presence. The people who pass out Emmys gave him an award just for holding press conferences. Over on CNN , Jeff Zucker handed the governor a recurring spot on his little brother's TV show. For a moment, Andrew Cuomo was THE man, a steely mixture of Abraham Lincoln and Paulie Walnuts who was just what America needed in a crisis. These days, no one seems to like Andrew Cuomo anymore. He's been "#MeToo-ed" for saying naughty things to women. Even Andrew Cuomo's former friends are treating him like Harvey Weinstein. At this point, it's hard to imagine that Andrew Cuomo will be … [Read more...] about Tucker Carlson: Lockdowns are killing our children, and everyone knows it — including teachers’ unions

David Shor on Why Trump Was Good for the GOP and How Dems Can Win in 2022
He made America’s representative institutions greatly biased in favor of Republicans. Photo-Illustration: Intelligencer Photo: REUTERS/Yuri Gripas In the United States, every season is campaign season. Four months after America last went to the polls, Democrats are still refining their autopsies of the 2020 race and already governing with an eye toward the 2022 midterms. Meanwhile, on the other side of the aisle, Republicans are trying to figure out just how firm Donald Trump’s grip on their party really is — and debating whether that grip should be stronger or weaker.

The initial plan in early January was to provide approximately 340 National Guard troops to support the city government during protests expected to take place on Jan. 6, the day that the Senate was expected to certify the election.

Authorities also had to consider the security of Biden’s upcoming inauguration, prompting an additional deployment. Law enforcement officials and members of the National Guard set up security perimeters ahead of President Joe Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 16, 2021 in Washington, D.C. (Kaylee Greenlee – Daily Caller News Foundation) Fifty days later, officials have offered mixed … [Read more...] about The National Guard Has Been In DC For 50 Days, And It’s Still Unclear When Troops Can Return Home

Transcript as follows: CARLSON: Things change fast, but it’s our job to keep track. It wasn’t so long ago that our taste-making class had decided that Andrew Cuomo of New York was the single greatest governor in American history.
