Description

For this week's review of November 15-21, 2020, THE 25TH HOUR brings you up to speed on what's happening with NYC school and business closures, Cuomo's continued COVID-fame tour, and Trump still being in hiding after losing the Presidential election to Biden.

With infection rates continuing to rise in NYC, de Blasio made a seemingly last-second decision to close city schools before closing businesses, leaving parents, kids, and teachers holding the proverbial bag, but the Mayor promised that businesses were next to be on the chopping block by December 1st. Cuomo promised to sue the Trump administration if a vaccine isn't equitably distributed to New Yorkers, and is also set to receive an International Emmy for his daily COVID press briefings. Biden is performing underground guerilla transition work while Trump's administration refuses to accept reality and ascertain Biden as the victor of the election. It's been a while since we saw Trump out and about, but he has been working tirelessly in the background to undermine state election certifications.

A reminder that TODAY at 5PM, THE 25TH HOUR is posting its interview with former ACLU President and Professor Emerita of NYLS, Nadine Strossen! Don't miss your chance to listen about how your First Amendment rights fare in the Pandemic Era.
