Cuomo Sleeps with the Fishes

In this week's episode, Jacob covers the latest in the culture war for public schools in Virginia. He focuses on a heated discussion in Loudoun County over Virginia's new transgender requirements, current school board member recall efforts, and how it degenerated to this. Eric talks about Ben Shapiro's recent attack on the January 6 protesters and why conservatives should not consider him an ally. For the main topic, they discuss former Governor Andrew Cuomo's resignation over sexual harassment accusations and what it means for New York politics going forward. Should the Right consider this a win? Or is it merely a calculated distraction?
