Funny how he has been convicted by Democrats without a trial. This brings the Cavanaugh hearings to mind. Turns out he did nothing provable. Turns out his decisions are constitutionally based. Innocent untill proven guilty.

The Democrats want him to resign. To bad he is a Democrat. If he was Republican his peers would fight for justice, not throw him under the bus. Innocent until proven guilty.

I don't have any idea about his guilt or innocence but I do think he simply can not govern until it is resolved...if ever.
That alone should encourage him to step down...at least take a leave...
The covid/nursing home fiasco hovers overhead as well.

Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand Call for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to Resign

New York governor has said he won’t resign, vowing to continue to lead the state

ALBANY, N.Y.—Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand joined 16 Democratic members of the state’s House delegation in calling for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to step down amid mounting accusations of sexual harassment and investigations into his handling of Covid-19 deaths in nursing homes.

Mr. Cuomo, a Democrat, said earlier Friday that he wouldn’t resign and that it was reckless to cast judgment on him before investigations had been completed.

The week marked a stunningly rapid turn for Mr. Cuomo, who just months ago was hailed for leading one of the hardest-hit states through the pandemic. It ended with Mr. Cuomo abandoned by just about every prominent member of his own party in a Democratic state.

More than 130 state lawmakers, including state Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, have said Mr. Cuomo should leave office.

Mr. Cuomo said he would try to ignore his critics and focus on his governmental work, which includes completing a $193 billion state budget that is due March 31. The third-term Democrat again denied he has inappropriately touched anybody and apologized if any of his remarks made people uncomfortable.

“New Yorkers know me. Wait for the facts,” Mr. Cuomo said Friday. “An opinion without facts is irresponsible. I’m going to focus on my job because we have real challenges.”

Mr. Cuomo’s vow to continue to lead the state capped a week in which a fourth aide accused him of inappropriate behavior, a complaint that his office referred to the Albany Police Department. The state Assembly opened an impeachment investigation into the misconduct allegations as well as his handling of Covid-19 in the state’s nursing homes.

State Attorney General Letitia James is overseeing an investigation of the accusations.

A person familiar with the governor’s thinking this week said Mr. Cuomo, 63 years old, appreciates the gravity of the situation but feels frustrated that he is unable to publicly counter his accusers and critics.

Hank Sheinkopf, a Democratic political consultant who has also worked with Mr. Cuomo, said he didn’t expect him to resign.

“If he were to say he weren’t running for a fourth term, it will alleviate some pressure,” said Mr. Sheinkopf, who hasn’t spoken with Mr. Cuomo recently. “But he probably won’t do that: When in his life has he given control away?”

Mr. Cuomo’s stance in countering the allegations has moved between denials to apologies for actions that made people uncomfortable.

The week left the governor politically isolated. Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, a Democrat from the Bronx, said Thursday that the chamber’s judiciary committee would conduct its own review of the allegations against Mr. Cuomo.

As of Friday, 35 Republican and eight Democratic members of the 150-seat Assembly have said they support impeaching the governor, according to a whip count maintained by Assemblyman Kieran Lalor, a Republican from Dutchess County who backs the effort.

An additional 37 members have called for the governor’s resignation, and still more say he should step aside and let Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, take charge, according to Mr. Lalor’s tally and public statements.

Lindsey Boylan, a former economic adviser to the governor, was the first former aide to accuse him of sexual harassment. After she made the claim on Twitter in December, at least six former employees said they got calls from the governor’s office to find out if they had heard from her or to try to discredit her. Some of the recipients of the calls said the outreach felt like acts of intimidation.

The latest accuser complained that Mr. Cuomo touched her inappropriately during an encounter last year at the Executive Mansion. State officials referred the woman’s allegation to the Albany Police Department on Wednesday, though a police spokesman said she hasn’t filed a formal complaint. On Friday, Mr. Cuomo said he “did not do what has been alleged, period.”

Another former aide, Ana Liss, 35 years old, said Mr. Cuomo asked if she had a boyfriend and once kissed her hand when she rose from her desk in 2014. The governor said he sometimes engages in workplace banter with his aides, and said he is sorry if his behavior made anyone uncomfortable.

Several lawmakers have said the allegations as well as criticism over the state’s reluctance to release nursing home death data have made it impossible for Mr. Cuomo to continue to serve as governor. Federal prosecutors have requested data about nursing home deaths and are interested in the production of a July Health Department report about how Covid-19 affected those facilities, the Journal has reported.

“Due to the multiple, credible sexual harassment and misconduct allegations, it is clear that Governor Cuomo has lost the confidence of his governing partners and the people of New York. Governor Cuomo should resign,” Mr. Schumer and Ms. Gillibrand said in a joint statement on Friday.

Mr. Cuomo has a long-time relationship with President Joe Biden, who has not addressed the matter. White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Friday declined to say if Mr. Cuomo should resign.

“The president believes that every woman who has come forward—there have now been six, I believe, who have come forward—deserves to have her voice heard, should be treated with respect and should be able to tell her story,” she said, adding that the president supports the investigation into the governor.

Mr. Cuomo said Friday that many of the resignation calls were politically motivated. New York state Democratic Chairman Jay Jacobs spoke to the governor on Thursday, and said Mr. Cuomo was taken aback by the number of resignation calls.

“He’s viewing these allegations from a different angle, if you will. I don’t think he sees it the same way that others see it. So, that has surprised him,” Mr. Jacobs said.

All seams like a convenient distraction from killing the elderly in a depraved TDS maneuver.
"Nothing to see here just another Pepe la pew"
"Quick, get under the carpet Cuomo before they uncover our real depravity"

Not quite so #metoo

And the pos had a direct hand in people’s deaths.......let’s just ignore that

Et tu Chucky?

Another knife thrust into the dicktator.🗡💔😭

Robert, that one word stands out to me . Allegations.

Is he entitled to due process when so many who would work with him want him out? That is, can he effectively govern with all this going on? Thankfully he is not my governor.

I don’t think anyone is ignoring anything Z.

I want him out but it’s not my choice. If only we heals everyone to the same standard.

THE N.Y STATE Cro Magnon govenoR is T.O.A.S.T.

His forehead has DEEPER RUTS
THAN THE GRAND CANYON

Not properly reporting or under reporting deaths caused by covid is not what I would call having a direct hand in the deaths.

And ignores much larger versions of the exact same thing at the national level. Both bad.

Not too long ago the only concern people had with him was the nursing home death camps.
And the mainstream media skirted around the issue and refused to directly call him out.

Now we're building towards double digit accusers claiming he's not only a murdering thug, but also a perv.
So finally the media is mentioning his name in mixed company.

He deserves due process, but he should have been publicly called to task from the start.

And was. It just snowballed like everything/everyone else. The press the press the press.

Who is ultimately in charge of the nursing homes in NY State?

Hint: It's the governor.

Hint 2: Cuomo is the governor.


Related question:
Why would Cuomo misrepresent the numbers?

Hint: See first question.

Lesson to be leaned: A politician and his bureaucrats should not be in charge of the care of anyone, especially the elderly and infirmed.

Opinion
Can Andrew Cuomo Continue to Lead?
The governor has lost his political allies and the public’s confidence.

By The NYT Editorial Board
Few political families have had more of an impact on New York politics than the Cuomos. Father and firstborn son both had public service woven deep in their DNA, and both developed a reputation for toughness in service of the common good and their own political ambitions.

When we endorsed Andrew Cuomo for another term as governor in 2018, we noted that he was “strategic and at times bullying in his use of power, driven and maddeningly evasive.” Supporters and critics, we wrote, agree that Mr. Cuomo is “a formidable political animal.”

There is a lot Mr. Cuomo can be proud of. The governor used his considerable political talents to great effect. He persuaded the State Legislature to legalize same-sex marriage, pass strong gun-control legislation and raise the minimum wage, and he saw New York through several crises, from Superstorm Sandy in 2012 to the coronavirus pandemic. Few people understand how to make government work as Mr. Cuomo does.

But those same traits translated into a ruthlessness and power that Mr. Cuomo failed to control. Several female staffers have come forward with accounts of sexual misconduct and harassment. These allegations are under investigation by New York Attorney General Letitia James and the State Assembly. Mr. Cuomo says he is confident that investigations will clear his name.

Undergirding these specific accusations is the widespread description of his administration by many former aides as a toxic workplace in which Mr. Cuomo and others ruled by fear and emotional abuse — and drew women whom Mr. Cuomo saw as attractive closer into his orbit, actively encouraging them to wear heels and dress in tightfitting clothing whenever he was around. In New York politics, Mr. Cuomo’s bullying style was an open secret. But the public caught only a glimpse of the dangers of Mr. Cuomo’s behavior recently.

It is always preferable to let official investigations run their course, to establish evidence from accusation. If crimes were committed, they should be fairly adjudicated. But the question of the governor’s continued fitness for office is about more than a criminal matter, with different standards.

The reality is that Mr. Cuomo has now lost the support of his party and his governing partners. The Democrats who control the State Legislature appear willing to impeach him, to say nothing of the Republicans. New York’s congressional delegation and city leaders, key to his base, have called on him to resign.

Voters, who returned him easily to office, will not have their say until the next election, should he decide to run for re-election.

The governor has jeopardized the public’s trust at the worst possible moment. The state is facing the hard and urgent task of vaccinating millions of people and recovering from a pandemic that has killed nearly 50,000 of its residents, sickened hundreds of thousands more and devastated the economy.

Mr. Cuomo, unsurprisingly to anyone who knows him, brushed off calls to step down and railed against what he called “cancel culture.” Asked whether he had a consensual relationship with any of the women who have come forward, Mr. Cuomo dodged: “I have not had a sexual relationship that was inappropriate. Period.”

What the governor failed to grasp during his news conference on Friday was that he owes the public a far more robust explanation for the slew of credible harassment complaints against him, as well as an articulation of why the public should give him their trust.

At this point, it is hard to see how Mr. Cuomo can continue to do the public’s important business without political allies or public confidence.
