Gov. Hochul kicks off campaign: 'You don't want to mess with the bad-ass women of New York'

I'm low-key impressed by Kathy Hochul's speech , she seems really down-to-earth, you know? Her focus on unity and expanding child tax credits is something we can all get behind . I think it's great that she's pushing back against Trump's policies too - we need more leaders like her in politics . And honestly, who wouldn't want to mess with the "bad-ass women of New York" ? I'm not sure about Delgado's chances though, but hey, at least he's giving Hochul a run for her money .

I'm low-key stoked about Kathy Hochul's re-election campaign ! She's literally taking on Trump's policies, which is, like, totally needed in my opinion . I love that she's emphasizing unity and promising a better future for all New Yorkers . Expanding child tax credits and banning cellphones in schools are some of the initiatives I'm most excited about . And let's be real, her budget proposal is on point - no income tax hike = yes, please!

omg i cant believe lt gov antonio delgado is still trying to challenge kathy hochul she was so strong and confident on stage, it's hard to imagine anyone beating her in the primary but idk about the GOP convention next week... i heard bruce blakeman is getting a lot of support from the party leaders that would make his chances of winning really high anyway, i'm all for Hochul taking on trump's policies and expanding child tax credits she seems like a really good governor and i think new yorkers should give her another term

I just remembered I need to water my succulent ... been there for like, months. Anyway, speaking of politics, have you guys ever noticed how hard it is to get politicians to actually follow through on their promises? Like Hochul seems super committed to some stuff, but we've seen this before, right? And don't even get me started on the whole "you mess with the bad-ass women of New York" thing... I mean, I kinda love it, but also can we talk about how empowering that phrase is for actual women who are doing awesome things? Not just politicians trying to flex their muscles

omg i still cant get over this quote lol her confidence is everything i mean dont get me wrong delgado did bring up some legit points about taxing the rich but Hochul has been all about giving back to the community and making NY a better place for everyone. she's got that #badass vibe down pat btw

I'm so glad we've got Kathy Hochul back in office , but you know what they say, she's still gonna have to deal with those Trump-style policies . I mean, remember when he was first elected? It felt like the end of the world, and now we're just trying to stay afloat . Anyway, it's good that Hochul is promising to take on some of those issues, but let's be real, it's gonna be an uphill battle .

I'm also kinda surprised Delgado didn't get more votes, I mean, he was pretty popular among the left-wing crowd . But hey, at least he's not giving up and is still out there trying to make a difference. And can we talk about Blakeman for a sec? He sounds like a total conservative dude , but who knows, maybe he'll surprise us.

You know what would've been cool though? If Hochul had just kept it real and said "listen, I'm not gonna promise you everything, because that's just not how politics works ". But nope, she went with the whole "unify" vibe, which is nice and all, but sometimes you just gotta tell it like it is .
