not only is she admitting nothing illegal occurred, not only would this also imply the men were victims, but she’s basically gonna make it illegal to have drunk sex. making any potential regretted hookup at a party rape lmao

“People think they have better odds playing the lottery than making it in their own life. What does that say about the country we live in?”
That they are constantly lied to and suck at math
Theo Von: “Do you think the American Dream is still alive?”
Zohran Mamdani: “It feels like you have to luck out in some big way. In many ways I feel like it’s why a lot of people play the lottery. For many it feels like their only chance.

Is it a good sign when the state starts taking about "closing loopholes" ~12 hours into taking over a criminal investigation?
Choosing to have a drink is not consent, and it’s never a license for sexual assault.
New York law should reflect that.
I support closing the voluntary intoxication loophole and will work with the Legislature to get it done.
Community note
There is no law in New York saying choosing to drink means consenting to sex.
Current New York law says voluntary intoxication does not invalidate an individual's ability to give consent, as it does not meet the state's standard of "mentally incapacitated".

“I will not comment on a Facebook post.” It’s her post!
Reporter: "Attorney General, on your Facebook page three days ago, you wrote, ‘What this young woman has been forced to endure is horrific and unacceptable. I'm holding her in my heart and in my prayers. To her and to all survivors, you're not alone. We stand with you.’ Why did you affirm her allegations as fact without doing your own fact-finding investigation? And to the governor, why did you appoint an official who made a public statement affirming those allegations as fact as someone who's supposed to be doing an investigation?”
New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D): “I will answer that. I have every confidence in our Attorney General to do what she has always done. Look at the facts, examine the record, and draw the proper conclusions. That's exactly what's going to happen in this case. Attorney General, please.”
New York Attorney General Letitia James: “I will not comment on a Facebook post.”
Great question!

I'm legitimately concerned about the future of our society, in particular our justice system, as social media's ability to whip up not just mobs, but something closer to flash-cults seems to be accelerating. It's not a left vs right issue, either.

This is glorious. I needed this. I think a lot of people needed this. We need radical optimism for the future, a rejection of the modernist sophistry that dominated for nearly a hundred years, that there was no objective truth or beauty.
The statue of Prometheus is finally finished.
It was cast in Paris, crossed the Atlantic, and was assembled at Starbase. It took us 100 days to go from nothing to this.
People of the West, we have lived through an era devoid of dreams, devoid of destiny.
But the time has come to reclaim our dream of antiquity.
In a few months, we will start building a new city. It will be the most magnificent city in all of history.
After all, the great dream of the West has always been to rebuild Rome.
Come walk beside us in this endeavor. The world is waiting.

Letitia James uses Facebook to publicly assert the guilt of the parties she's tasked with neutrally investigating, yet she finds it beneath her to answer press questions about that post since its "just Facebook."
Pick a lane lady.

Furthermore, both of these previous statements by Gov Kathy Hochul appear to be predicated on the guilt of the Cornell 7 and the notion that Jane Doe was a victim of a horrifying culture of rape. Can Hochul therefore marshal an investigation that is impartial?

Can AG James Remain Impartial?
Gov. Kathy Hochul has appointed NY AG Letitia James to take over the Cornell alleged rape case. Hochul said this would “ensure that the matter is fully and thoroughly investigated without conflict or bias.”
And yet 3 days ago James issued the statement below, which made evident she believed the 7 men were guilty.
Is it possible for James to remain impartial having already declared the following?
“What this young woman has been forced to endure is horrific and unacceptable. I’m holding her in my heart and in my prayers,” James said.
“To her, and to all survivors: you’re not alone. We stand with you.”
If the woman is a “survivor” in James’ eyes, that means she was raped.
What this young woman has been forced to endure is horrific and unacceptable. I’m holding her in my heart and in my prayers.
To her, and to all survivors: you’re not alone. We stand with you.

The Facebook post was a comment. If you're at the point where people can't ask you about stuff you've said maybe politics is not for you.
