Call it Cuomoception, because we have scandal upon scandal on this 25th episode of THE 25TH HOUR!
* De Blasio continues to calibrate the long lines at vaccine sites, revel in the reopening of middle schools, but also lost his Education Chancellor and NYPD Chief of Department (not that it seems many people mind).
* Cuomo - what are we going to do with you? The Governor who seemed to soar to new heights in the beginning flew too high near the sun, and is now experiencing an Icarus-level downward slope following two sexual misconduct claims from former aides.
* Biden marked the US' surpassing of 500k deaths with silence, but tried sparking hope with the passage of 50 million first-time dosages and the FDA's approval of Johnson & Johnson's one-shot vaccine.
* The House passed the COVID relief bill and the Equality Act, so now the ball's in the Senate's court, with the handicap of the $15 minimum wage bill getting shot down by the Parliamentarian (don't worry, we explain all of that!).
