Kathy Hochul wants people to 'believe in their government again'
[NYPOST] The Empire State’s newly minted chief executive, Gov. Kathy Hochul, told New Yorkers that she wants them to "believe in government again" as she officially grabbed the reins of the state bureaucracy after a wave of scandals forced former Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo
...Dem dynastic governor of Noo Yawk, the son and heir of the late Mario Cuoma and formerly married to a Kennedy. Acclaimed for his leadership during the COVID epidemic, he managed the nation's highest corpse count while successfully hiding the returns and writing a book praising himself. Among the nation's horniest politicians, he has about a dozen allegations of sexual harrassment and groping against him.

from office.Hochul, a Buffalo Democrat, takes over a state government that has been battered by the months of tumult that eventually resulted in Cuomo’s ouster, suffered a staff exodus at the Health Department as it attempts to battle the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic and a "crisis" in the state’s flailing tenant rescue program, which she vowed to get on track.

"I want people to believe in their government again," she said Tuesday during the short presser that followed her ceremonial swearing-in at the historic Red Room in the state Capitol.

"It’s important that people have faith," she continued. "Our strength comes from the faith and the confidence of the people who put us in these offices and I take that very seriously."

The looming wave of evictions from the pandemic is among the most immediate challenges facing Hochul, as the state’s federally funded tenant and landlord rescue program remains mired by delays, a glitchy computer system and a failure to get the word out about the effort.

#10 Of old was the priesthood profound:
Odd noises, dark nights, sacred ground
In the depths of a grove.
Now they'll plunder your trove
In broad daylight with nary a sound.
