Heywood, Andrew Cuomo rose to power thanks in part due to his time as NY state Attorney General.

That was when he sued Intel Corp. and turned what should have been a federal case into a state case.

Seeing that the cards were stacked against them, Intel settled with the state and participated in Cuomo's little pet project in Albany, the 450nm consortium with IBM, Samsung, and GlobalFoundries. My cousin was a part of that project.

In 2015, Intel and Samsung leave the consortium. It's not clear just how successful that consortium was, but we do know that America is now falling behind in the semi fab race.

The only one who benefitted from the consortium was Cuomo himself. And he did it using the same strongarm tactics that he is using today as Dicktator.

So yeah, I know exactly how the Dicktator works. The NY state Attorney General's office is nothing more than a political tool for the governor.
