Gov. Kathy Hochul rushed to the microphones Tuesday to reassure New Yorkers following the Brooklyn subway shootings. She should’ve stood in bed.
Out tumbled a jumble of half-thoughts, unfocused and haltingly delivered, underscoring what has been apparent for some time now — which is that New York’s latest accidental governor would be out of her depth in a Buffalo mud puddle.
Which, in a manner of speaking, is where she came from.
Hochul’s horrible day also included news that her handpicked, staunchly defended lieutenant governor, Brian Benjamin, had just been arrested on federal corruption charges. Benjamin would be gone by day’s end, of course, but the matter will linger.

She should’ve stood in bed.Maybe she should have went to the office before making that statement.
“Lower“ translates to “minus”...”lesser” translates to “luminare,” which would sound better in a motto, I believe.
Cuo Bono?
Andrew Cuomo.
He’s running ads here in NY, ya know.
Thanks.
Google says there is no direct antonym.
I’d suggest a special session of the NYS legislature to adopt a new State motto.
Maybe something like “Meh.”
Yeah she should have stayed home painting her toenails or something…her statement was pure political tripe with a dash of hysteria…first time that I have ever heard her speech and I was totally unimpressed…
Excelsior means ever upward.
How about skewer downward.
