- She oversaw the state's reaction to an omicron COVID winter, signed new gun control and abortion rights legislation, and achieved an agreement with lawmakers to modify the state's contentious bail changes.
- Hochul "was never even elected Governor, New Yorkers aren't her apostles, she is not the mother of the state's counties, and the people want to be in charge of their own government again." Zeldin said in a fiery statement announcing his participation in the discussion.
- "I hope the moderators address rising crime, cashless bail and other pro-criminal laws," Zeldin said in a statement.
- "I'll win," Hochul predicted.

Quick Glance: Good-by, Benjamin: the lieutenant governor has resigned.
- Who, if anyone, is scrutinizing bad Senate member things, demanding both giver and receiver to certify to no conflicts of interest?
- Was it approved by Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins?
- Did Comptroller Tom DiNapoli give his approval?
- (We're told no, because the Legislature deprived his office of that responsibility.) Is Attorney General Tish James certifying that everything is in order?
- And, after reading about Benjamin's problems in the media, did James or anybody else look into it further?
- And why was Hochul so supportive of him only six days ago?
- And why did Stewart-Cousins give him the Senate presidency just four days ago?
