Breaking News: Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York halted a congestion pricing plan, which would charge motorists to enter Manhattan, just weeks before it was to go into effect.
And the start of a very lucrative career on the right wing talk circuit, where she will performatively lament the end of bipartisanship due to woke, and get all the think tank dollars.
The US is really remarkable in its commitment to the ethos of "better things are not possible, and even if they are, we won't allow them."
Hochul was for this plan mere weeks ago, but someone must have reminded her that doing good things isn't in her job description.
If we respond to this appropriately this will end her career. Problem: we just re-elected her by default, and she isn’t up for re-election until 2026. New York has a serious problem where we just keep electing people who suck and are obviously the wrong people to elect
