What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

The United States of America's democracy is failing because rich people don't want to work or pay taxes.

And now our entire government apparatus has been co-opted to cover up for rich people raping children for decades.

A large part of MIT's funding is federal money. They're still choosing to stand up to fascism despite the financial trouble it could cause.

Being MIT, I bet they did the math.

MIT rejects federal funding deal with Trump administration

The deal would see universities cap foreign admissions, restrict protests and adopt a binary definition of gender.

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.

All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.

So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!
