Governor's Executive Orders Impacting Statutes of Limitation
At the outset of the pandemic, Cuomo issued an executive order stating that "any specific time limit for the commencement, filing, or service of any legal action, notice, motion, or other process or proceeding" would be "tolled" from March 28, 2020 to April 19, 2020. Exec. Order 202.8, N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 9, §8.202.8.

He proceeded to issue a series of extensions, ultimately extending the tolling period to Nov. 3, 2020 for a grand total of 228 days. Exec. Order 202.67, N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 9, §8.202.67.

Your own link says it is a case by case basis.

This is the typical Rx argument when you've made your mind up. My opinion is calling this "lawfare" is stupid anti-American propaganda because you are saying our courts are not courts of justice but only political fodder. This s a bad side of Trump in that his narcissism and bad actions are covered by making us look like a failed nation. My look as a non-lawyer at the case against Trump shows it to be for massive amounts of money and easily fit the criteria. The things you are saying have not convinced me otherwise. He had his day in court and was found guilty. If at some point he is able to appeal and they find a reason he is not guilty then that is the system doing what it is supposed to do.

Or maybe, hang with me here, the incumbent leaders of most countries were blamed for the global inflation. Also, just because the votes flipped in a binary choice, doesn’t mean the nation moved to the right. We don’t get a spectrum of perceived legitimate choices at the top of the ballot. It’s black and white.

I guess it’s good that MAGA is feeling glib. The Capitol should be safe for four years.

We are not on some huge MAGA movement. The above may be true, but I don't think its the driving factor.

Trump won because we were lied to about the Presidents condition for years now (though most of us seen the writing on the wall very clearly). When the polls told them that the people were not electing him again, they shifted the nomination to a very poor candidate (who was run off in a previous primary and had approval ratings from 28%-38%) and spent 100s of millions trying to convince Americans that she was somehow a stronger leader than the person they already knew. Americans didn't buy it. Just a massive political blunder that simply trumped all the issues combined.

I think it was the debate performance, not the polls.

Ah yes, the ‘most countries’ rationalization.

Feels a touch glib.🧐. Couldn’t have anything to do with the US , just a worldwide phenomenon.

It’s not sour grapes. This has been a story for the last year. As was said long ago, it’s the economy, stupid.

It is a worldwide phenomenon, but I never said it had nothing to do with the US. My point was it’s not a given that Rob’s “hard truths” were the reason.

Inflation has helped decide elections worldwide. Here's what that means for the midterms.

Inflation helped fuel government turnover across the world, some experts said.

The world's hatred of inflation means we could see a global power shakeup next year

High inflation could motivate voters across the globe to vote out government leaders in power.

Uncertainty is the winner and incumbents the losers so far in a year of high-stakes global elections

Discontented, economically squeezed voters have turned against sitting governments on both right and left during many of the dozens of elections held this year, as global power blocs shift and political certainties crumble.

Look at Trump's priorities. This video made 1 year ago is Trump here on an anti-transgender tirade. He offers not one word of help for children having gender issues. He thinks the problem is caused by teachers and doctors wanting to get rich. Children having issues with IDing with his or her own gender is one of the worse things that can happen to them. At least try giving them mental health care. I suspect, though, most Trump supporters would like such kids to just kill themselves. Those kids are Satanic freaks.

Trump's top priority should be bringing peace to Ukraine and the Mideast to greatly reduce the threat of nuclear war. Next should be the illegal immigrant problem and bringing down inflated prices. Let states worry about transgender issues.

And yet, despite mostly winning, the party of sore losers cannot comprehend that they ran a horrible candidate in the Arizona senate race so "iT MuST BE chEaTinG." I'm sick of this anti-American crap.

I’ve been wrong about them setting cities on fire..so far. Thanks for pointing it out. If you’re keeping score, I’ve been right about basically everything else. We’ll see.
 
According to unofficial election results, Oklahomans cast 1,564,573 ballots for president this year. That's nearly 4,000 more votes than were cast in the previous presidential election.

Oklahoma saw a net increase of more than 141,023 voters since Jan. 14 and 29,056 since September., reaching almost 2.5 million Oklahomans who were eligible to vote.

so even using only this years added registration #s...we had 4,000 more votes but had over 141,000 new registrations?!...quite perplexing

I'm in no way saying any Dem could think of winning red@$$ oklahoma, duh...but the #s are quite interesting...why would over 100,000 register to not vote...

Easier to register than it is to vote maybe? Not sure but you can register within a few minutes but to vote it takes longer to fill it out and then drive to turn it in. Its not a good excuse but the only thing i can think of atm

Not by abandoning Ukraine or supporting Russia.

With tariffs..?

Well, then I'm sure America and very maybe Trump has the willpower to try to make the war go on as long as possible to benefit the military industrial complex. Okay, if it works to keep nuclear war from breaking out. Over 200 billion has gone to the Ukraine War. If in years to come the war aid goes over $1 trillion and no nuclear weapons are detonated, it will be worth it. $1 trillion won't go to maintain the infrastructure, but at least it will still be there with none of distroyed by nuclear war. While the Afghanistan War is much different from the Ukraine War, no nukes happened during that 20 yearlong war.

No, tariff happy Trump was one reason why I didn't vote for him. But just maybe he'll catch on to the reason why so many people voted for him was due to being tired of putting up with inflated prices. But if Trump's tariffs bring on inflation look for at least 1 side of Congress at midterm to switch to Democrat. All America knows to do with its political problems is to repeat the wash, rinse and repeat cycle.

Pretty sure I've related these two things on here before. China is watching our response and if we back out on supporting Ukraine will almost definitely invade Taiwan. You personally might not care, but it's not in our best interests to have to choose between protecting Taiwan or giving it up to China.
If China takes Taiwan, one of their biggest struggles technology wise would be solved. They'd then feed that back to Russia, Iran, and every other country we've put export restrictions on.

For your concern about nuclear war. I'm sure the Phillipines, Japan, Australia, Germany, England, France etc etc wouldn't feel very good if we fully back out of the world stage. That's how you get more nuclear proliferation. Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons via treaty with Russia and the guarantee of no future invasion... taught the world a lesson, never give up nukes.
