Watch: Fox’s ‘Let’s Be Real’ Mocks Andrew Cuomo over Sexual Harassment Scandals

Fox’s Let’s Be Real is taking satirical aim at New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s numerous sexual harassment scandals by creating a puppet press conference in which the embattled governor advises women to keep a “safe distance” from him.

In a preview clip of the new show, which debuts Thursday, the puppet version of Gov. Cuomo (D)  explained how the coming warm weather will arouse his lusty appetites as women in New York wear looser, more revealing clothes.

“But I cannot stress enough how that behavior will increase the number of New Yorkers who will be sexually harassed — by me,” he said.

He also advised people to maintain six feet of distance from him in order to “flatten the curve,” and warned of a new “variant” of his predatory techniques.

“I introduced some new moves into my repertoire, which now includes sneaking up behind a woman whom I’m meeting for the first time and whispering ‘cara mia’ into her ear, close enough that her ear feels moist” he said.

Watch below:

In addition to his sexual harassment scandals, Gov. Cuomo is facing mounting accusations that his office hid the true extent of nursing home deaths from COVID-19.

At the height of the pandemic, Cuomo ordered elder care facilities throughout the state to accept coronavirus patients — a move that is believed to have caused the virus to spread rapidly through the state’s elderly population.

This week, the New York Times reported Cuomo’s office hid the state’s nursing home death toll for at least five months and prevented state health officials from releasing the actual figures.

Cuomo effort to 'obscure' COVID-19 nursing home death toll was reportedly 'far greater than previously known'

Brendan Morrow

Aides to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) "repeatedly" overruled state health officials "over a span of at least five months" while allegedly attempting to obscure the state's COVID-19 death toll among nursing home residents, The New York Times reports.

Cuomo is facing a federal investigation over his administration's handling of data concerning how many New York nursing home residents died from COVID-19, which the state's attorney general in January found had been undercounted by "as much as 50 percent." Aides for the governor, the Times reports, were aware of that "since the previous spring."

Their effort to obscure the true death count was "far greater than previously known," the Times also reports, writing that aides "engaged in a sustained effort" to prevent it from being released to the public or the state lawmakers over the course of months.

"A scientific paper, which incorporated the data, was never published," the Times writes. "An audit of the numbers by a top Cuomo aide was finished months before it became publicly known. Two letters, drafted by the Health Department and meant for state legislators, were never sent."

A lawyer for Cuomo's office told the Times that the "chamber was never satisfied that the numbers that they were getting from [the Department of Health] were accurate" and "wanted only to release accurate information." An aide for Cuomo in February privately acknowledged, though, that the administration withheld the data amid concerns it was "going to be used against us."

This is one of several scandals Cuomo is facing, as he's also under investigation over allegations of sexual misconduct and for allegedly using state resources while writing a book about the pandemic. Cuomo has resisted calls to resign despite Democrats calling on him to do so. Read the full report at The New York Times.

Cuomo Aides Hid COVID Nursing-Home Deaths for Months: Report

Zachary Evans

The push by New York governor Andrew Cuomo’s office to obscure the coronavirus death toll in state nursing homes was more widespread than initially thought, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.

Senior aides attempted to prevent the New York State Health Department from releasing the true number of coronavirus victims in nursing homes over at least five months beginning in the spring of 2020, according to interviews and documents reviewed by the Times.

The apparent attempt to obscure the death toll came after Cuomo’s March 25, 2020, executive order mandating that nursing homes admit patients who tested positive for coronavirus. According to an analysis by the Empire Center, an Albany-based think tank, that order may have caused between several hundred to over one thousand additional deaths.

A draft report by the Health Department on coronavirus deaths in nursing homes identified 9,739 victims through the end of May. The draft noted that “approximately 35 percent” of all deaths in the state were among nursing home residents, according to the Times.

However, that draft was not released. The report released to the public claimed that just 21 percent of all coronavirus deaths in New York occurred among nursing home residents. The state only admitted publicly that 6,500 nursing home residents had died of coronavirus as late as August.

During an August legislative hearing on nursing home deaths, New York health commissioner Howard Zucker testified that the state was still attempting to gather accurate data on those deaths.

“When the data comes in,” Zucker said, “then I will be happy to provide that data to you.”

After that hearing, Cuomo adviser Melissa DeRosa asked then-adviser Gareth Rhodes to conduct an audit of the Health Department’s internal numbers, people familiar with the matter told the Times. Rhodes and state health officials completed their initial audit by the end of August, again finding that over 9,000 people died of coronavirus in state nursing homes by the end of May.

However, even after the Health Department sent the audit to the governor’s office in early September, the audit was never approved for release.

Cuomo reportedly asked for another audit of the numbers on October 12, one day before the publication of his book on fighting the pandemic. The book received an advance of over $4 million.

The new audit was completed by the end of October. Zucker wrote a draft letter to the State Assembly speaker, set for release in November, informing that at least 9,835 nursing home residents died of coronavirus by October 30. However, the letter was never sent.

Attorney General Letitia James alleged in a January 2021 report that the state had undercounted nursing home deaths by as much as 50 percent. Immediately following the report, Zucker released data on over 3,000 additional coronavirus deaths among nursing home residents, and published data on more deaths in the following days.

A lawsuit by the Empire Center forced the state to reveal all of its data on coronavirus deaths in nursing homes on February 10.
