@JohnDiLillo
People lose debates, especially vs. Trump, when they’re bad at improv. Hillary in 2016 was too rehearsed and civil to respond to his barrage of attacks like the “you’d be in jail” line. But Biden last week wasn’t even capable of reacting coherently. Harris could be different.
NEW:

“I’m a member of Congress! You’re cutting me off,” Williams said.
“Only when you say something that’s not true,”
@jimsciutto
responded.
This morning:
@RepWilliams
says he will take pay during a government shutdown, adding “I’m not independently wealthy.”
#NY22
He says the pain suffered by federal workers is “real,” but that furloughed government employees shouldn’t expect “a huge amount of sympathy.”

Folks - some personal news…
I’m going to college.
I know, that’s a lot. But it’s also really exciting. I’m looking forward to attending

Folks, it’s been 21 months since my last chemo and I am still cancer-free! 💚
Just 3 more months and I get a free sub. (That’s not true, but wouldn’t it be great if it was? Oh well...)
Some great news: I’m incredibly proud of my brother who, after graduating high school in June, will be heading to InclusiveU in the fall!
So excited to see Mark on campus at

My brother is my hero. This weekend, Mark Radel made history.
He’s the first student with Down syndrome in the Mohawk Valley to graduate with a high school diploma. Ever. It took a lot of hard work and determination. My story for

Folks - some personal news…
I have cancer.
I know, that’s a lot. But it is Hodgkin’s lymphoma which is highly TREATABLE and CURABLE; they expect to have me back at 100% in just 6 months! I start my treatment journey tomorrow and wanted to let you all know what’s going on:
Hello all - finished day 1 of chemo. Feeling good. Staying at hospital overnight; heading home tmrw in the early afternoon. Only got some minor ribbing from the docs for the lucky Red Sox shirt I got from my time at Mass General… gotta bring SU gear next time.
@SyracuseU
Folks - some personal news…
I beat cancer.
Yes, it definitely was a lot, but I sincerely could not have done it without all of you. Here are just a few of my many thanks, thoughts, and hopes for the future.

Hard to believe it’s been three years since the doctors at Mass General in Boston told me I had stage 4 cancer.
Today, I’m in remission and feeling great. But I’m still thinking about and praying for every kid who gets devastating news like this.
FIRST ON
@WKTV
: Moments after her primetime speech, I spoke to
@EliseStefanik
on the convention floor in Milwaukee.
“I always work every day to give my district a seat at the highest level and I take my issues right to the top with President Trump,” she told me.
#NY21
BREAKING: In Syracuse,
@POTUS
name-checks
@RepWilliams
for calling the CHIPS Act “corporate welfare.” Once the Micron plan was announced for CNY, Williams came out in favor of the law.
@CitrusTVNews
“I guess they won’t be joining us today to celebrate,” Biden jokes.

As a political nerd, I’ve been so excited to meet all of the amazing reporters here in Milwaukee, but top of the list by far has been CNN legend

I’m coming home to “where the news comes first!”
Thrilled to be working as a reporter for

NEW: I can confirm
@POTUS
will be returning to CNY on the 25th. 🚨
A source familiar with the planning tells
@CitrusTVNews
a plan for Biden to visit the
@SyracuseU
campus is in the works as part of the Micron announcement.
Scoop: Micron will be next to get giant check from federal govt as part of effort to make semiconductors in US.
Biden scheduled to go to Syracuse region on April 25 as part of announcement.
Micron grant will be $6.1 billion.

Chemo treatment
#3
! As with every movie franchise, the third one is always the best.
This’ll be 3 of 12 total infusions meaning I’m 25% of the way there! Thanks for all the love and support.
It’s
@claudiatenney
’s birthday and I can’t think of any other reasons to celebrate…
Oh yeah, I just finished my 12th and final chemotherapy treatment! With any luck, this will mark the end of my 5 month cancer battle. Thank you all for your support!! 💚
@ShimonPro
A heartbreaking story incredibly well told. Excellent work. Please keep it up - this is what true accountability journalism is all about. And tell the families we stand with them and they are forever in our hearts.
It’s almost here, folks.
One month from today, if my scans are clear and my doctors give the OK, I’ll be finished with my cancer treatments. I’m feeling excited & optimistic to put this chapter of my life behind me. Thank you all for your support! (Me and my AP Gov. teacher) 💚

“Words matter and there is no doubt that anyone, my opponent included, who screamed ‘stop the steal’ or spent time undermining the integrity of our election should take a long look at themselves in the mirror.”
@Acyn
Not a great point. There’s an obvious difference between interviewing a former president/GOP front runner who makes misogynistic comments when answering a journalistic question vs. keeping under contract a morning show anchor who makes them repeatedly.
EXCLUSIVE: Oneida Co. Exec.
@AJPicenteJr
, one of the highest-ranking elected Republicans in
#NY22

@RepWilliams
comments on the Proctor shooting.
He says the Congressman is “not familiar with the community.”
“You need to do your homework a little bit.”
@CitrusTVNews
Duly noted: the race for

is up in the air as one county’s canvassing process for absentee ballots confounds the court.
It’s certainly been an eventful day in the battle between
@ABrindisiNY
and
@claudiatenney
! If anything else happens, I’ll keep you Post-It.
ONE-ON-ONE: I challenged
@RepWilliams
on the bipartisan border deal which he opposes and calls the “Biden re-election bill.” He says it “would not stop the crisis.”
#NY22
My follow-up: “You think having an open border would help
@JoeBiden
get re-elected?”
@CitrusTVNews
Just out of surgery. Port placed, meaning no more cords hanging out of my arm. RIP, RoboArm!
Now time to begin chemo

Chemo

of 12 down today which brings us to 58.333333% completed, but who’s counting?
Plus had an awesome visit from my friend,

! I wore my

hat for the special occasion.

#8
of 12 today - my grandma came with us this time! And I was so excited to have her with us that I didn’t even think about how contradictory it is to wear a Villanova shirt with a Syracuse hat. Whoops!
2/3s of the way there!! 💚
Folks… we’ve made it to chemo 6 of 12! These past few months feel like they’ve flown by. Let’s hope the next couple months do the same. Thanks for all the support. 💚💚
Alexa dropped by for chemo
#9
of 12 - a very welcome visitor for sure. I have been feeling a lot better this time around and I was asking myself why that could possibly be? Hmm, while I figure it out, enjoy this cute picture of us.
We’re 3/4 of the way done, folks!
Received word yesterday from Golisano Hospital - there were two rooms in the cancer wing that didn’t have sleeper sofas for parents… that has changed. Thanks to the donations you made to the

Fund, brand new ones were just ordered for these rooms to help families! 💚

Center today for a routine check-up - it’s been 9 months since my last chemo treatment and I’m feeling great!
Forever grateful to the amazing doctors & nurses here and to all of you for your continued support! 💚
Chemo
#5
of 12 today. Now according to one famous Christmas song, I was supposed to get 5 golden rings upon arrival today. Haven’t found them yet. I didn’t get days 1-4 either which I’m honestly fine with b/c most of the gifts in that song involve various assortments of poultry.
Today, we lost someone very special. My grandma, Terry Snyder, passed away peacefully and surrounded by loved ones.
I truly believe she’s been reunited with my grandpa, Don - but I’ll miss her wisdom and razor-sharp wit. Thoughts and prayers for our family are appreciated. 🤍
Wow.

Here’s my super speedy update on this incredibly close race:
Five years ago today, I met my childhood heroes
@iMovers
when I helped bring them to Utica for

. I grew up watching their show & jamming out to their music. They were so kind and fun in-person. Hope to see them in concert again soon, once I kick cancer to the curb.
Learned that it is
