120 - Sex Pest Steve and Handsy Andy

With the election looming large over Rensselaer County, Sex Pest Steve is helping out his pals by handing out contracts to donors. While at the national level Dems abandon child care in their reconciliation bill, Capital District parents are unable to find spots for their own kids. Handsy Andy is being charged for a groping incident, but apparently is too important to be perp walked. With a wave of strikes around the country, it’s time for a sober evaluation of the state of labor today. And Ryan from The Office is selling ponchos.
