Governor Kathy Hochul (D-NY) hammered President Donald Trump's involvement in the upcoming New York City mayoral race on Friday, telling Politico's Jeff Coltin, We are not f*cking selling out this city. Hochul's statement comes after news broke that Trump reportedly offered two candidates in the race incumbent NYC Mayor Eric Adams and Republican challenger Curtis Sliwa jobs in his administration with the hope that a two-candidate race might boost the chances of Independent candidate Andrew Cuomo.

"If we refuse to fight for our democracy, then we're doomed to lose it," Hochul told Rachel Maddow. "We don't want our democracy lost. And that's why I'm sick and tired of fighting these battles with my hands tied behind my back because we have an independent redistricting commission."

Governor Kathy Hochul emphasized the importance of the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, aiming to reduce shootings while securing federal support for gun safety.

"If we don't increase our capacity over the next decade we will see rolling blackouts," Hochul said.

"Entrenched systems of power, both politically and economically, now dictate how public goods, public dollars fund our public goods. I call that trickle-down-economics, lite."

If one is convicted of an existing crime, e.g. harassment or menacing, and the individual convicted was wearing a mask, that there'd be some penalty enhancer during sentencing.
