The Point

First, Melissa DeRosa, an Albany insider dishes about life at the center of power. Then, we talk more about all those illegal pot shops in New York City with State Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal. 

Talking Points

DeRosa, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's right-hand advisor, spoke about her captivating book "What's Left Unsaid: My Life at the Center of Power, Politics and Crisis."
