Publisher to Pay Cuomo $5 Million for COVID Book Flop
'Luv Guv' inked multimillion-dollar deal while covering up nursing home deaths
Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D., N.Y.) will make $5 million for a book he wrote about his leadership during the coronavirus pandemic, while his administration hid the true number of nursing home deaths in the state.
Crown Publishing Group will pay Cuomo $5.12 million for American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic, according to his office. The New York governor was paid $3.12 million of that sum for the book in 2020, according to tax filings, of which he contributed $500,000 to charity and $1 million to a trust for his daughters. The remaining $2 million will be paid to him over the next two years.
Cuomo is under investigation by the New York attorney general's office for falsifying the number of coronavirus deaths in nursing homes in the state. An initial report by Attorney General Letitia James said the governor's administration undercounted the deaths by over 50 percent by hiding how many nursing home residents died in hospitals. According to the New York Times, Cuomo's aides also intervened on multiple occasions to obscure the true number of coronavirus deaths, stalling data from reaching state health officials and legislators.
The governor faced calls for his resignation in March in the wake of sexual harassment allegations. At least four women have now accused Cuomo of sexual impropriety, with one of them accusing him of groping her in the governor's mansion. He allegedly asked another when alone in his office if she "had ever been with an older man." He promised to "fully cooperate" with a review by the state attorney general's office into the matter and apologized for his behavior, but has rebuffed calls to resign.
Cuomo's book, which was published in October, has sold around 45,000 copies. In it, he claims criticism of his state's nursing home death toll was a "lie" concocted by "Trump people" and Fox News.
LIKE ANY LAWYER, BIDEN HAS SPENT HIS POLITCAL LIFE LYING AND GAMING IT TO PUT IT IN HIS POCKET. THAT IS WHY THE CRIMINALS ON WALL STREET LOVE THEIR BOY SO MUCH!
Biden Backed by $174 Mil in 'Dark Money'
Thu Mar 18, 2021
Democrats and their media keep talking about the influence of big money. And they know exactly what they're talking about because the big money is always on their side. And the money is often unseen. It creeps through cracks and pours through indirectly. Government money fuels their community groups. And then there's the vast river of dark money out of Silicon Valley and Wall Street that swings the country their way.
Where did the dark money go in 2020? This is just a small part of the big picture.
Of donations and spending reported to the FEC, liberal groups directed more than $514 million in dark money into the 2020 election, overshadowing around $200 million that boosted Republicans.
Anonymous donors poured record amounts of money into groups backing President Joe Biden in the 2020 contest, leaving the public without a full accounting of who helped him win the White House.
Biden’s presidential bid attracted around $174 million in support from anonymous donors, more than six times the $25.2 million in dark money contributions and spending boosting President Donald Trump’s unsuccessful re-election effort.
Of course, this turns into a pitch for HR-1's pitch to kill free elections and turn America into California. Anyone who isn't suffering from a short memory though remembers that campaign finance reform is how we got into this mess. Instead of taking money out of politics, it poured a lot more money into it while shifting the center of power over to an ideological monopoly that helped push the country much further leftward.
If HR-1 were to become a nightmarish reality, you know that the power to determine elections would shift even further leftward, and more money than ever would pour into its political coffers.
The Left never dismantles its own power. It only strengthens it.
BLOG EDITOR: LAWYERS SHOULD BE BARRED FROM ELECTIVE OFFICE. ALL OF THEM ARE PARASITIC GAMERS OF THE LAW AND AMERICA'S GREATEST THREAT. JUST LOOK AT THE CRIMES OF JOE BIDEN AND HIS PARAISTE BRIBES SUCKING LAWYER SON HUNTER, AND PARASITE LAWYER BROTHER.
Andrew Cuomo revealed to be a complete pig
For today's gross-out news, take a look at the latest from New York's once-vaunted, highly feted, Emmy award-winning Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
Here's New York Post report:
The first woman to publicly accuse Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment claimed he once boorishly joked that he would “mount” her if he were a dog, a new report said.
Lindsey Boylan, a former aide to the governor, revealed Cuomo’s creepy remark in a lengthy interview with The New Yorker‘s Ronan Farrow, telling him that Cuomo made the gross joke in 2018 after a meeting at the Governor’s mansion.
Boylan, 36, who is one of seven women to lodge accusations of sexual misconduct against the governor, said he made the comment after Cuomo’s dog — a German Shepherd mix named Captain — jumped up and down near her.
Eeew. Who thinks like that? If a dog is jumping on someone, you get the dog off, and say 'sorry' to the person targeted. You don't cheer the dog with doggy-style sex allusions, pop off about it as the first thing that comes out of your mouth, and then imagine the woman involved isn't going to be throwing up inside. Nobody normal makes that kind of talk. Only a pig with a filthy way of thinking does.
And that's Cuomo to a tee, he's comfortable with that with no problem expressing it. Small wonder he now claims he had no idea he was offending people with his kind of talk as his defense. He apparently did it so often he was unable to recognize how disgusting he was.
So if there are any doubt that Cuomo was a bigtime sex harasser of the very grossest sort, the same sort of guy as one of Kamala Harris's top aides, Larry Wallace, whose sex harassing was so disgusting, it forced the state of California to make a $400,000 payout to a young employee he repeatedly forced to crawl under his desk to "fix" his computer so he could leer at her underwear, there's little room left for doubt. This is the world of pigville.
These new revelations remove all doubt that Cuomo was a grotesque abuser of female employees while living it up in a position of power and accolates. They reveal his arrogance, given that these incidents happened in the post-me too age.
Worse still, they were often done in public, right in front of people, with no expectation of any censure or consequences. People knew.
Everyone knew. And as in the case of Harvey Weinstein, another one taken down by Ronan Farrow, just as Cuomo is now being exposed by him, everyone in those charmed circles was all cuchy-coo and air-kisses with him. Oprah, Hillary Clinton, and other celebs from the big-name Hollywood circles knew and they turned their heads until they couldn't. Then they pretended to be shocked. But they knew very well and said nothing while Weinstein was powerful.
It's the same deal with Cuomo. So many people around him knew all about his bad behavior and not one of them stepped in front of him to stop it, or filed a complaint, or otherwise tried to make the old goat behave as a civilized human being in public for just a few minutes. That's where the real disgrace is. People knew because Cuomo never tried to hide his bad behavior.
Now, it seems Cuomo is dispensible, what with the need to protect other Democratic favorites among the governors from the same decision Cuomo made to put COVID patients in nursing homes. Taking him down on the easily seen, easily verified charges of unprofessional piggishness, the sort of thing that would get any office drone fired, seems to be the order of the day. If Cuomo's accusers in government and political class want to go that route, it behooves them to reveal all the people who knew about him and did nothing.
Joe Biden, the very definition of an empty suit
Joe Biden has always been an empty suit, for all of his 39 years in Congress, then eight as vice president.
He demeaned himself at the Clarence Thomas hearings in 1991 where he revealed his inner cruel nature. How he was ever elected again after that does not speak well for his constituents. He is a lifelong prevaricator, plagiarist and groper of female children. He has apparently sexually assaulted an adult woman as well. And we’ve all heard the stories of how he liked to swim nude in the presence of female secret security agents when he was VP. In short, the guy is a jerk, a poseur. He is also, and has always been a racist of the worst kind, the type who believes it is justified.
Throughout his years in Congress, he has seen to it that both his primary and extended family members have become rich by less than above-board means. His son Hunter is a case in point. The list of events showing Hunter’s unethical path to wealth is legion. If a son of Trump’s had been as corrupt as Hunter, we would never hear the end of it. And as Robert Gates has commented, “Joe Biden has been wrong on every foreign policy issue for forty years.”
And yet, with all this baggage, this is the man the Democratic Party has chosen as their presidential candidate to defeat President Trump! They’ve chosen very poorly as time will most certainly reveal.
This campaign season, for all the hysterical vitriol displayed by the left, is nothing if not amusing as well. Reading and watching the panicked leftists who fear a Biden-Trump debate so much they are advising they be cancelled is entertaining for they seem to think we don’t see through their oh-so-disingenuous arguments. They know as well as those on the right do that Biden is failing fast. That his rapacious wife has not called a halt to his campaign is proof that she does not love the man; she sees him as the avenue to her own exalted place in the power structure of D.C. She is a sort of comic book Lady Macbeth.
As the days pass and we see the short glimpses of Biden in his lovely patioed basement, we see a man lost in the fog of dementia, who loses his train of thought in the middle of sentences. He often has no idea where he is or to whom he is speaking. He is quick to anger if asked a question he does not like or cannot answer. He has so far acquitted himself as a man perhaps the least qualified, tempermentally and intellectually, to be president. He has embraced Bernie Sanders’ socialist platform as his own, balked at condemning the BLM and Antifa violence that has razed numerous democrat-run cities throughout the nation. He is wobbly on defunding the police which means he is afraid to speak out against the demands of the rioters. He is a coward.
He has even announced he will not attend the Democrat convention in Milwaukee. Any bets on whether or not he will debate the president? Chances are he will bow out of that commitment as well. His handlers are surely acutely aware of his obvious limitations by now. Even a high-tech ear piece would not help Joe. Directions and corrections in his ear would only confuse him further.
What is the Democrat party to do? Well, everything they are doing. They have an orchestrated strategy that is being implemented daily. Every leftist appearing on television and writing at the NYT, WaPo, and throughout the online media are doing everything in their power to convince the American people that the U.S. is irredeemably racist, a despicable lie.
They drone on and on about how Trump has handled the covid pandemic poorly, another an outright lie. He has been on top of it from the outset. (Would Biden have banned flights from China? Not a chance; he’s owned by China.)
They are spreading the fear that Trump will refuse to leave the White House if he loses, a ridiculous notion even from them. They are working hard to convince every American that the coming election will not be legitimate.
Mail-in-voting is one way to ensure that. They plan on votes not being counted by Jan. 20 so that Morticia Pelosi can be named temporary president. Can any of us imagine that nightmare? That two months would give them time to cheat/fix the results to their satisfaction or even to replace Biden, if he were to be declared the winner, based on the 25th Amendment.
The Democrats are up to no good, of that we can all be certain. They have never accepted Trump’s 2016 victory and, as a result, have behaved poorly ever since, wholly without class or grace. All the divisiveness has come from their refusal to acknowledge their candidate lost. The pathetic Carl Bernstein, forever trying to relive his role in Watergate, is demanding the Republicans remove Trump from office now! What does that tell us? That even Carl knows Biden cannot win. The question is, will Biden remain the candidate until November 3rd? We shall see. If he chooses Heels-up Kamala Harris as his running mate and Trump airs the clip of her accusing Biden of being a racist, theirs will be an ever-imploding exercise in futility. That would be a self-inflicted wound but fascinating – and grim in all its ramifications.
The Democrat party has devolved into a gang of thugs, as the hearing with Attorney General Bill Barr proved beyond a reasonable doubt. There is not one with the courage to speak up and admit that the party is broken into bits of dross, illegitimate due to their embrace of socialism. Everything they support is in opposition to the Constitution: illegal immigration, open borders, anti-law enforcement, anti-military, pro-violence in our streets, hatred of both the First and Second Amendments. They are prepared to lie, cheat and steal to gain power and implement their plan to destroy the middle class and turn the U.S. into Venezuela.
And they believe that Joe Biden is going to take them where they want to go! It is not only Joe Biden who is an empty suit. The Democratic Party has relinquished any and all legitimacy it once had. Why and for what? Because their criminally corrupt candidate lost in 2016, a D.C. outsider won, and they have been in the throes of an enraged tantrum ever since. How else would they have ended up with empty-suit Biden as their candidate? Karma?
“Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
― William Shakespeare, Macbeth
Exec of #MeToo Group That Covered for Biden’s Sex Abuse Heads His Gender Policy Council
Believe all women… except those who accuse powerful Democrats.
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
When Hollywood wanted to divert attention from its sexual abuse of women, it created Time’s Up and staffed it with political hacks from the Obama administration.
Time’s Up was built as a rival to the decentralized social media #MeToo movement. Replacing social media outrage driven by random people with a formal organization funded by Hollywood capital and controlled by the Democrat non-profit sector could prevent another Weinstein mess.
Despite being backed by Hollywood millionaires, the organization’s legal defense fund launched what became the largest fundraiser on GoFundMe: totaling almost $25 million. But critics pointed out that Time’s Up’s money was mostly going to salaries, rather than to victims.
There was even more outrage when Time’s Up Now co-sponsored a retreat at a spa filled with agents from CAA: a powerful talent agency backing Time’s Up which had been accused of covering up Weinstein's crimes. Rose McGowan, a key #MeToo figure, tweeted, “Times Up A vile PR stunt, a front for evil CAA & other human traffickers like Weinstein.”
In 2019, Lisa Borders, the CEO of Time's Up, was forced to resign when her son, a formerly homeless yoga instructor, was accused of groping one of his clients during a "healing" session. Borders explained that she was resigning because she wanted to defend her son, but still got paid $591,000 for half a year’s work as part of a “severance agreement” with the group.
Borders was replaced by Tina Tchen, Michelle Obama’s former chief of staff, who spent 2020 tanking what was left of the little credibility that the Obama/Hollywood front group still had.
Oprah Winfrey had helped launch #TimesUp with a Golden Globes speech declaring, “Their time is up” and she also hosted an interview with Time’s Up leaders on CBS: whose former CEO, Les Moonves, had been TV’s own version of Harvey Weinstein. The Time's Up celebs that Oprah interviewed, Shonda Rimes, and Natalie Portman, had not been assaulted by Harvey Weinstein. Or anyone. (McGowan also rightly blasted Portman's theatrics.)
But when a documentary about the women alleging that they had been raped by Russell Simmons, a celebrity hip-hop producer who was also a pal of racist Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, was close to release, Oprah Winfrey pulled out, under pressure from Simmons.
Time’s Up not only joined Oprah in refusing to support the victims, but allegedly started a whispering campaign to sabotage the documentary. A Hollywood Reporter investigation tied together Tina Chen and the role of former Obama consoligere Valerie Jarrett, and noted that, “$2.9 million of Time's Up gross receipts in 2018 came from three undisclosed donors.”
But the complete collapse of Time’s Up came when Tara Reade accused Joe Biden of sexual assault. Reade had initially reached out to people at Time's Up only to be told that the organization legally couldn't support her because Biden was a political candidate. President Trump was also a political candidate, but that hadn’t stopped Time’s Up from attacking him.
The same organization that recently put out a statement by Tina Tchen headlined, “Donald Trump Must Be Removed From Office”, claimed that it couldn’t speak out against Biden for legal reasons. The legal reasons were a joke, but the political ones were there for everyone to see.
Tchen managed to praise Biden for having the right response to the allegations. This wasn’t surprising as Time’s Up was populated by former Obama people, and in a glaring conflict of interest, its public relations were being handled by Biden advisor Anita Dunn. Beyond being Biden’s “decision-making authority”, Dunn had also provided advice to Harvey Weinstein.
“I actually cried a little because I felt really betrayed,” Reade had said. “They never told me that their public relations was run by Anita Dunn. I found out in real-time reading Ryan’s article. I gave them so much personal information and they say they didn’t give it to Biden. But come on. They said they had firewalls or something.”
Time’s Up said lots of things. But then it did very different things.
The Chief Strategy and Policy Officer for Time’s Up, Jennifer Klein, maxed out her donations to Biden. Klein, a former Obama and Clinton vet, has now been appointed by Biden as the co-chair of Biden’s new White House Gender Policy Council, alongside Julissa Reynoso, Jill Biden’s Chief of Staff, an Obama ambassador, and a Paul and Daisy Soros Fellow.
The White House Gender Policy Council is tasked in Biden’s executive order with, among a multitude of other things, combatting “sexual harassment”. The Council is expected to throw out policies by former Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos that protected the due process rights of students who had been accused of sexual misconduct on college campuses.
Had Biden faced the same lack of due process as the average college student, he would have been immediately found guilty. But Time’s Up insisted that there was no organization that existed to try Biden. Instead it would be up to the voters to pass judgement on his “character”. That was a convenient rationalization for refusing to stand with the women accusing Biden.
Now Klein, who was donating to the abuser, will head up Biden’s program to protect women. Except of course those women who might decide to come forward and accuse her boss.
Time’s Up had always existed to silence actual victims on behalf of influential Democrats. It was a partnership between Hollywood and Obama operatives. Rolling executives of Time’s Up into Biden programs just makes the arrangement public.
Klein combined her time at Time’s Up with serving as co-chair of the Women and Families Policy Committee for the campaign of an accused sexual abuser. Now the Biden campaign elevated her campaign role to an administration role. And, in an interview with Ms. Magazine, Tina Tchen touted Klein as “an expert on both domestic and global gender issues”.
“The policy of this administration is that every individual, every student is entitled to a fair education — free of sexual violence — and that all involved have access to a fair process,” Klein argued.
Fair process and due process are not the same thing. A due process protects the rights of the accused while a fair process is in the eye of the beholder. Equity dispenses with due process and replaces it with bias that is only ‘fair’ if you believe that society is fundamentally unfair.
Of course we already know the outcome.
Tina Tchen had already tweeted that due process rules for accused abusers on campus are wrong and the National Women's Law Center, which administers the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund, had sued to stop student accusers from being cross-examined after an accusation.
The Biden administration will move to ban cross-examination of campus accusers, but when Reade accused Biden of sexual assault, she was cross-examined and then smeared in the media, while Biden was hardly ever asked about any of the allegations of sexual misconduct.
That’s the ‘fair’ standard of Time’s Up in action.
Accuse a random student and you have the right to be believed without being cross-examined, but if you accuse Biden, you have the right to be cross-examined without ever being believed.
Believe Reade or don’t, Biden’s inappropriate conduct with women has been captured on video. It’s not hard to find photos and video clips of him inappropriately touching women and girls. That might be one reason he chose to rename the White House Council on Women and Girls that Tina Tchen had headed for Obama to the White House Gender Policy Council headed by Klein.
The existence of women and girls is routinely denied by lefties who insist on using euphemisms like “menustrators” (She the People), “chest-feeders” (NHS), and “people with vaginas” (Planned Parenthood) and by Biden, one of whose first moves was to effectively eliminate women’s sports. Now women have also been erased from the Council on Women and Girls.
BILL CLINTON: SERIAL RAPIST!
Why is no one helping or caring about all these women? Who Hillary Viciously went after.
The hypocrisy right now on the left is utterly stunning me.
Bill Clinton-12 women on record telling their stories of him sex-ually assa-ulting them starting back in college!
Imagine all the women who still have never told their stories about him?

The Last 3 Dem Governors of New York Sexually Harassed Women
For 20 years, Democrat sexual predators have run the state of New York.
Fri Mar 19, 2021
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
For 20 years, Democrat sexual predators have run the state of New York.
For 13 years, the terms of the last three Democrat governors, sexual harassers have held down the office. And for 20 years, Democrat attorney generals who were sexual predators ruled.
It’s quite an achievement for a national and state party that claims to protect women.
"There is a disrespect for women that this administration chronically exemplifies. After the #MeToo movement, they did absolutely nothing when it came to sexual harassment," Governor Cuomo ranted about President Trump during the Kavanaugh nomination.
That was the same year that Cuomo had halted an investigation into Manhattan DA Cy Vance’s mishandling of the Weinstein case back in 2015, six days after Cuomo got a $25,000 check from the law firm that had represented Weinstein in 2015, which had donated $10,000 to Vance.
Vance's office had also asked a judge to reduce Jeffrey Epstein's sex offender status so low that he wouldn't be listed as a sex offender. "Can Cyrus Vance, Jr., Nail Trump?" the New Yorker recently asked. Better ask Harvey Weistein and Jeffrey Epstein about Vance’s track record.
Governor Cuomo has pivoted from condemning President Trump’s “disrespect for women” to accusing his female accusers of secretly working for Trump. The #IStandWithCuomo hashtag is being used to spread claims that Cuomo is being taken down to help President Trump.
If there’s anyone who knows how to really respect women, it’s Cuomo.
But it’s hard to complain about Cuomo sexually harassing and groping women. Let alone be surprised that Cuomo kept up the great tradition of his predecessors.
David Paterson, Cuomo's blind black predecessor, whom he ousted by digging up dirt, revealed at a press conference that he began to have an affair after his wife cheated on him. Paterson admitted to the affair, though denied having a child out of wedlock, to avoid being blackmailed.
"I think we have a marriage like many Americans, maybe even like many of you," Paterson told reporters. Considering he was addressing the media, he was probably right.
After denying that he had affairs with anyone on his staff, he eventually admitted to sleeping with a number of women, including his director of community affairs. He later reached a settlement to head off a sexual harassment lawsuit from his chief of staff whom he had allegedly hired while having an affair with her and then fired after breaking up with her.
Paterson also faced accusations of witness tampering when he called the girlfriend of a top aide after she filed a police report accusing his aide of choking her and throwing her against a mirror.
All of this was a refreshing change from his predecessor, Governor Eliot Spitzer who had picked Patterson as his Lieutenant Governor. Spitzer was forced to resign when he was caught patronizing prostitutes and allegedly used campaign funds to cover the hotel bills.
So the obvious next step was a job at CNN where his show never took off.
In what seems to be a troubling pattern with New York Democrats, one of Spitzer's prostitutes claimed that he liked choking her. The prostitute then claimed that she was pimped out by the Manhattan DA's office a few years before it was trying to keep Epstein off the sex offender list.
Spitzer had started out as the Attorney General of New York back in 1998, Cuomo took over from him in 2006, and Eric Schneiderman succeeded Cuomo in 2010.
Attorney General Eric Schneiderman was forced to resign after multiple women accused him of choking and assaulting them. One of the accusers said that Schneiderman, a progressive Democrats, kept calling her his, “brown slave”. Another claimed he had declared, “I am the law”.
Sexual predators have held the office of the Attorney General of New York for 20 years from 1998 to Schneiderman’s resignation until 2018. The current officeholder is a woman.
It’s a hell of a record.
Governor Cuomo claimed that the Trump administration “chronically exemplifies” a “disrespect for women”, but it’s New York Democrats who can’t seem to stop preying on women.
All of the New York Democrat abusers were professional feminists.
“A year before Roe v. Wade, I graduated from high school, went to Washington DC, and got a job working in an abortion clinic. I learned an important lesson at a young age. If a woman does not have the right to control her own body, she is not truly equal. She is not truly free,” Schneiderman had tweeted, while he was choking women and telling them they were slaves.
On MSNBC, Eliot Spitzer claimed that he was a feminist with a record of "devout dedication to women’s rights, on the issues of choice", and urged voters to “look at the totality of my record,” and not just the parts that allegedly involved taking away a women’s choice to breathe.
"James says I’m a feminist and she’s right," Cuomo had once boasted at a Planned Parenthood event, referring to the Attorney General now investigating him for sexual harassment. "God told me I was a feminist."
Governor Cuomo had created the Women’s Equality Party as his own platform, and had read a speech attacking President Trump, in which he declared, “As a New Yorker, I am a Muslim. I am a Jew. I am Black. I am gay. I am a woman seeking to control her body. We are one New York.”
Cuomo then went on to blame Jews for the pandemic while preventing women from being able to control their bodies with his meaty hands.
All part of the track record of the “national leader in the fight against sexual harassment.”
Democrat sexual predators were able to get away with their deranged behavior because they pretended to be feminists, and feminist leaders, celebrities, and the media were happy to help.
Planned Parenthood alone has provided cover for numerous Democrat sexual predators.
But New York is still something special. If Cuomo is toppled by his own #MeToo moment, that will mean that the last three Democrat governors were forced out of politics due to scandals.
It will also mean that three Democrat AGs were actually career sexual predators.
The media will carefully avoid connecting these dots because they peel back the mask and reveal the true face of their own political movement and the political faction at the top.
The Democrats don’t protect women. Like Bill Clinton and Joe Biden, they prey on them.
Nolte: Andrew Cuomo Under Federal Investigation for VIP Coronavirus Testing Scandal
The far-left New York Times reports that disgraced Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) is currently under federal investigation over credible allegations that he gave friends, family, and supporters special access to coronavirus testing.
“Federal prosecutors have been looking into whether Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo’s administration granted special access to rapid coronavirus test results for the governor’s family and other influential people, according to two people with knowledge of the discussions,” writes the left-wing Times.
Cuomo is already under federal investigation over the credible claim that he lied about all the nursing home deaths caused by his sinister and disastrous policy that forced nursing homes to accept patients infected with the coronavirus. Not only are the elderly the most vulnerable to the China virus; most nursing homes are just not set up to contain a viral infection.
On top of lying about instituting this deadly policy (for more than a year, the media allowed Cuomo to blame then-President Trump), Cuomo also reportedly lied about the death count. Many believe he did so to ensure his book deal, which paid him some five million dollars, would go through. The book, laughably, was all about him bragging about how well he handled the coronavirus.
But now the Times reports that on top of the nursing home investigation, the feds have expanded their investigation into “questions surrounding a priority testing program that benefited Mr. Cuomo’s close family members, including his brother, Chris Cuomo, in the early weeks of the pandemic.”
The Times adds, “The governor’s office has not disputed that the governor’s family and others received priority access to testing in the pandemic’s early weeks” and “lasted far longer than previously known, through at least last month[.]”
Good God.
So, basically, here’s what happened and why it matters…
Early last year, if you recall, New York was the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, and during these crucial early days, testing resources were scarce as everyone tried to get a handle on this thing. Nevertheless, and the governor does not deny any of this, Cuomo utilized these scarce and vital resources to not only test his friends and family and the influential but to allow them to be tested at home by some of the top people in his Health Department.
So Cuomo sent vital personnel to the homes of the Chosen Few to administer the tests and then used city services to rush the tests to the lab where the tests were bumped to the head of the line.
The biggest sin in all this, at least in my opinion, is that the Chosen Few’s test results remained anonymous, which means they were not used to help the people of New York by way of contact tracing and the like.
Here’s how I laid out the scandal back in March, which is also a scandal that involves CNNLOL’s Chris Cuomo, the governor’s little brother. The Times explains:
Chris Cuomo and his family were tested several times in the pandemic’s early phase by a high-ranking health official who traveled to their Long Island home to take samples, which were then rushed by the state police to the Wadsworth laboratory in Albany.
…
Officials are barred by state law from using their position to obtain “privileges or exemptions” for themselves or others, or even trying to do so. An impeachment inquiry into Mr. Cuomo, run by the State Assembly, has also begun considering the access the governor’s family received to testing.
“Priority testing by definition means that discretion was involved, and both the executive chamber and the Department of Health had discretion to decide who needed to be tested first,” said Mr. Abramowitz, the lawyer for Mr. Cuomo.
Fredo also, while infected with the China virus, broke every quarantine rule there was to head out to the Hamptons, and did so while pretending to be quarantined on his failing CNNLOL TV show.
As we all know and as has been well-documented, the American justice system protects Democrats and persecutes Republicans, so let’s not hold our breath that there will be any accountability.
