Here are Schneiderman's 2 deputies. Pick one.

I hope if he is guilty of any of these assault claims, he will step aside now and let someone else take over. Maybe one of his current Chief Deputies. (Till whenever the legislature agrees on one -- and the Senate is controlled by the R's.)

ON UPDATE: Chris Hayes says that Gov. Cuomo is going to be calling for Schneiderman's resignation.

Resignation and proceed to trial. It's the right thing to do. It also shows that the shithole in the WH need to do the same.
