Let us now castigate Gov. Cuomo.

How else to celebrate such a history of public service?

She blames pandemic, not lockdowns.

She doesn’t say that outright [that the pandemic
torpedoed the economy, not the lockdown] but, like many articles in the mainstream press over this year, she very carefully crafts her words to avoid the crucial subject of lockdowns as the primary cause of economic disaster. It’s possible that she actually believes this virus is what tanked the world economy on its own but that is a completely unsustainable proposition.

Yes. She has journalistic company with that stupidity.

Is it unkind to call her and her husband dingbats?

It’s a maddening statement, to be sure, as if “economics” is somehow a peripheral concern to the rest of human life and public health. The larger context of the interview reveals the statement to be even more confused. She is somehow under the impression that it is the pandemic and not the lockdowns that are the cause of the economic devastation that includes perhaps 30% of restaurants going under, among many other terrible effects.

Better (as ever) to go with Jesus on the cross: They know not what they do.

Jesuit publication “reflecting the mind of the Vatican since 1850” currently reflects the mind of leftist commentators the nation if not the world over, even to shooting down the U.S. Constitution.

No surprise here.
