This week we’re talking about the boat that we cannot believe is still stuck in the Suez Canal, and lots of NY happenings. Cuomo has announced a Covid passport system that is a terrible idea for lots of reasons. A judge in Troy has ruled in favor of a predatory landlord who bullied a tenant out of her home in the middle of a pandemic. The Troy Police Reform and Reinvention Collaborative has released its final report, which says that they have too much stuff to do and would like a basketball court. And finally, NYS is on the verge of finally passing cannabis legalization… with a catch.
