we don't have a covid crisis in new york. we have a leader crisis in new york. putting aside what we know is a gross deprivation of liberty which will be challenged in court, this new normal mandate will be another stake in the heart of a city struggling to survive. this is the reality of life in new york city after de blasio's rain of terror. vaccine passports will only have more new yorkers abandoning the state. in tennessee they are going on with their lives. ditto with texas, florida. covid cases are going up, but the governors of red states america know that mandates, threats and restrictions they kill the patient, meaning their state's economy and their children's future. they also know the government's refusal to recognize the protections that millions and millions of americans already have from natural immunity shows that this is not about science. this is about power and about control. biden may not understand the dynamics in play, but the stark contrast between life in a free state and life in a covid captive state, biden's political ventriloquist get

what will new york state be in the future? no one can tell us, because it depends on what we do now. our actions will determine our future. we must keep people in businesses thriving in this state, crime must be controlled, and we have to be smart about it. no governor in the nation has passed more progressive measures than i have, but i disagree with some people in my own party who called to defund the police. i believe it is misguided, i believe it is dangerous. gun violence and crime are savaging inner cities. look at new york city, the majority of victims are poor, black and brown. reforming police must be the goal, ending discrimination by the police, ending the unnecessary use of force, and then building back trust and respect between the police and the community they serve, that's the real answer. and that is easier said than done, but it's also the truth and the right way forward. our state's economic competitiveness is vital. demonizing business is against our collective self-interest. taking actions that cause busine

the new york ag. do you expect charges against cuomo and his team? >> hard to know but there is certainly a possibility. i guess two competing principles. criminal cases are never the same as they appear on paper. we don't usually see the prosecution memos or reports. they can be distorting in terms of how strong a case would actual hang together but at the same time in this report there is ample corroboration, there is retaliatory conduct, there's independent witnesses that saw victims that had been completely shaken up by the creepy nature and behavior of this man. so i do think there is a possibility of charging some fairly low-grade but consequential charges such as forcible touching, based on the accounts and the corroboration. elizabeth: we hear you. the criminal cases have a high bar. it has to be beyond a reasonable doubt but there is a lot of evidence here. congresswoman, retaliation against accusers, bullying, that seems to have legs. your take on that. the state attorney general's office fi

zack: zack from new york 1. you mentioned that it corroborated a lot of what the witness testimony was when you spoke with -- the investigation. when you interviewed governor cuomo, did he admit to or deny the majority of what was said here? ms. clark: there was a combination. there are some incidents that he admitted to, but had a different interpretation of, and there were other things that he denied or said he didn't recall. reporter: can you speak a little bit more about that? wnyc. can you speak a little bit more about what that conversation, that 11 hour conversation was like the other week? ms. clark: i can't recount all 11 hours of it. as i said, there were certain things. like he admitted that he asked ms. bennett whether she had been involved with older men. he denied touching the state trooper, although he said he might've kissed her at an event. and there were certain things that he turned around and said that, for example, executive assistant number one, that he did hug her repeatedly, but claimed s

bill comrade de blasio is now demanding in new york city that the people of new york city follow his strictnd new covid-19 guidelines who are they risk losing their freedom. that their freedom will be taken away. pay close attention to what he says. >> the delta has changed the game. unless we want to run the risk of going back to restrictions and having their freedom taken away and people losing their jobs again, it's really clear we have to do. here's a clear message. we are saying, you want to enjoy great restaurants? amen. do you want to go to movie theaters? go to thenj gym? that's great and we want all that pretty got to get vaccinated. you want to work in those places coming up to get vaccinated for the goodndtt in the health of everyone around you. it's not that tough to do. >> sean: he says you're going to risk losing your freedom. that's kind of strange because his measure takes away everybody's freedom. by the way, comrade de blasio, our rights actually come from god, the creator of everything, not from you, comrade bill de blasio. apparently bill thinkss he knows best. he

new york governor andrew cuomo has announced he is resigning. >> and i love new york and i love you, and everything i have ever done has been motivated by that love. i would never want to be unhelpful in any way. i think that given the circumstances, the best way i can help now some if i step aside and let government get back to governing. >> his resignation takes effect in 14 days. that announcement comes exactly a week after the new york attorney general released her report that alleges he sexually harassed 11 women. the governor though is still defiant. he says the most serious allegations have no credible factual basis in that report, and we're getting some reactions now as you would expect. the white house says that the governor's resignation is what president biden has called and advocated for, and new york mayor big de blasio issued a statement. here is part of it. make no mistake, this is the result of survivors bravely telling their stories. it was past time for andrew cuomo to resign, and it is good for -- it is for the good of all of new york. and the state's two senators

even in new york she is not a household name. here is new york magazine writer ben jacobs. good to see you. thanks for joining us on this simple question, who is kathy hochul. give us her story. >> kathy hochul comes out of buffalo, which already makes her unique in new york. no governor has come from buffalo since grover cleveland. she is a long time local politician who rose up in 2011 to win a special election that no one expected democrats to when at the midpoint of barack obama's political fortunes. in 2014 she was picked by cuomo to be his running mate because he needed someone who was popular in western new york, but not someone he viewed as inherently politically threatening to him. now the longest serving lieutenant governor right now in the united states as cuomo's number two focusing on economic development, traveling the state without playing a key role in actually everything cuomo was doing, which is a net plus and a net minus at this point. >> i'm hearing the first test for the lieutenant governor lb whether or not she advises the assembly to pursue or continu

owns the new york's journal. the type of news that had started with the penny press is carrying over into the 1870s, '80s, '90s and eventually will culminate in this great mac we sometimes called yellow journalism, which is this. of sensationalism in some newspapers, right? headlines get bigger and splash year. newspapers use more illustrations, right? the idea again is to draw in more people, , draw in more readers, keep them coming back so that we can then charge a more for our advertising. nellie bly gets a meeting with john and she tells him her ideas. ideas. we need to write about these dirty conditions in our cities. we need to write about the poor and how they are treated. i want to cover these stories. he says i'll tell you what, you cover a story about black wells island, which was the insane asylum that was a very scary place to be, and i'll give you a job. she takes the challenge and she fakes insanity, which to be fair wasn't entirely difficult to do at the time, right? especially for a woman. for a w

eric adams will be the next mayor of new york city. i think you bring a new philosophy and competence to the position which can give new york city residents hope for the future. and finally, thank you, thank you for the honor of serving as governor of new york. thank you for allowing me to represent you. thank you for empowering me to fight for you. thank you for trusting me through covid, thank you for making new york state the progressive capital of the nation. thank you for vindicating e. b. white's words often quoted by my father, god rest his soul when he said, quote new yorkers to , the nation. -- new york is to the nation what the white church spire is to the village the visible , symbol of aspiration and faith, the white plume saying the way is up. thank you for the honor of serving you and never forget always stay new york top smart, , united, disciplined and loving. it's the essence of what makes new yorkers so special. god bless you. announcer: kathy hochul was sworn in as the 57th governor of new york. she replaces governor

they are killing new york. when i thought he resigned today, you know what i said, the entire democratic party new york, all of albany, they should all resign. they have destroyed what is a once great state, and it has to be rebuilt. i'm sorry but i love new york and i am disgusted with what they have done. beyond the horrible stuff they did with the old folks home. that was criminal as it was. but they have done on every issue is criminal. >> at the beginning of this year they got a $12.5 billion monopoly funny money payment sent to them from d.c. they should be able to brag about how they're balancing their budget. actually the budget that was passed at the end of march, the beginning of april, not only jacked up spending without money but they spent over $2 billion on a new fund for people who aren't even legal in the country. in order to help pay for that, the increased taxes on many new yorkers to the highest income tax rate. >> laura: everyone is going to leave. i have to point this out quickly. something
