Cuomo and deblasio aren't responsible for the cabinet level supervision HHS which oversees the cdc, nor the national security council pandemic response team (RIP). You know, those people that were supposed to be doing their jobs at the national level while state and local leaders do theirs.

You mean at the level where national security briefings filter to, rather than those at the state level without those briefings?
Speaking of Hoover...(medium long read, but good)

No, bad news thread. Should be on a need-to-know basis.

"I don't see the problem. Typical liberal media hates trump, set him up with a gotcha question!" -Brian, probably.
To be fair...
The system is probably designed to have a smaller portion of mail in votes relative to a larger number of in person votes. Changing the entire system to mail in without much time for planning the change could likely be problematic.
Just look at what happened to toilet paper when people suddenly stopped shitting in “public” and started shitting at home. The existing retail consumer toilet paper supply couldn’t keep up with demand.
I think toilet paper is a fair comparison to voting in this day and age.

now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about ....
NY, CA, and IL make up 25% of US tax collections. Those three, definitively blue states, could just hit the brakes on revenue collection and the Federal government would have a serious problem. It's like when really wealthy people owe banks money. If you owe $100,000 it's your problem. If you owe $100,000,000 it's the bank's problem
Governor hair gel has been giving daily press briefings for 3 weeks now. The contrast with the cheeto show is astounding. There is a shit ton of mobilization going on right now on like 100 different fronts. Housing, unemployment, ppe distribution.....it's insane.
He's still pretty diplomatic when discussing the whitehouse btw.
The dude is kind of killing it right now. The only reason people have been babbling about cuomo 2020 is because Newsome is actually fixing shit and leaving less of a horror show to cover.

She needs to be the reporter that straight up asks, "What the fuck is wrong with you?" I think she came close...

Works for me?
Finally saw it, she’s a fucking pit bull.
I dunno, I think this woman is just asking the questions any reporter should be asking in this situation.
President has “total authority.”
I knew that “checks and balances” stuff they taught in school was all theory with no practical application. I should’ve aced that civics class.
