Inbox: @MaketheRoadNY condemns Gov. Cuomo& #39;s "disastrous" budget. Worth reading these in detail:

And what the budget does to immigrants--many of whom are doing those "essential" jobs in the pandemic

In conclusion, disaster authoritarianism isn& #39;t limited to Republicans. Cuomo has forced through a wish list of conservative policies and doesn& #39;t even have the cover of the IDC holding the Republicans in power in the state senate.

This is not only not separate from his daily image-burnishing press conferences--this is *why he holds those press conferences.* so that he has the poll numbers and ratings to do what he wants.
