There were a few cracks at the expense of former governor and one-time presidential hopeful Andrew Cuomo in the capital this week. His former girlfriend Sandra Lee — once tipped as future First Lady — was in D.C. in her new role as the member of the White House Historical Association’s Board Council. And she spent the evening at the landmark at a dinner celebrating a new exhibit. An insider snickered to Page Six: “At least one of them made it to the White House.”

Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo personally altered a state review that lowballed the nursing home COVID-19 death count, emails detailed in a new report show – a revelation that directly contradicts his claims he had nothing to do with it. Emails and congressional documents undercut Cuomo’s defiant assertion during a summer congressional grilling that he never saw or even had any memory of the state Health Department report, the New York Times first reported. “Governor’s edits are attached for your review,” Cuomo’s assistant wrote to the then-governor’s senior staff in June 2020, the Times report states. Cuomo wasn’t sworn in under...

NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo on Monday called out media outlets and “political players” who have downplayed the assassination attempts against former President Donald Trump. Cuomo’s reality check came during his impassioned opening monologue on his eponymously-named show, Cuomo. He said he is bothered by the “reaction and lack of reaction to the second attempt on Trump in the last couple of months” and called out those who say the suspected would-be assassin, Ryan Wesley Routh, “didn’t even shoot.” “What if it was your father?” Cuomo asked. “Or what if it was Kamala Harris or President Biden, God forbid? [Do] you...

Chris Cuomo makes an impassioned apology to President Trump

Gov. Andrew Cuomo allegedly himself “edited” a state report that deflated New York’s COVID-19 death toll in nursing homes — which his top aides pressured health officials into releasing, despite knowing the issue would turn into a “great debacle,” according to the stunning results of an investigation by a US House committee. Cuomo “absolutely” signed off on the disastrous directive early in the pandemic forcing coronavirus patients back into nursing homes — leading to as many as 9,000 excess COVID deaths — the final congressional report and witness testimonies exclusively obtained by The Post show. The House Select Subcommittee on...

A former aide to former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and current Gov. Kathy Hochul was arrested Tuesday morning on charges of violating and conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), visa fraud, alien smuggling, and money laundering conspiracy. The former aide, Linda Sun, is accused of acting on behalf of the People's Republic of China and the Chinese Communist Party, to further their interests in the United States. Her husband, Chris Hu, was also arrested and charged with money laundering conspiracy, as well as conspiracy to commit bank fraud and misuse of means of identification. Sun was...

Disgraced former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is set to testify publicly before Congress for the first time regarding his controversial handling of COVID-19 in nursing homes, which killed thousands of vulnerable seniors. The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic has requested Cuomo’s testimony in a hearing scheduled for Tuesday, September 10, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. in the Rayburn House Office Building.

The former high-ranking aide for Gov. Kathy Hochul who was arrested along with her husband Tuesday acted as a foreign agent for China, according to a bombshell indictment. The 64-page indictment accuses Linda Sun, 41, who was arrested that morning along with her husband, Christopher Hu, 40, of blocking representatives from Taiwan’s governor from visiting the New York governor’s office. She also skewed public statements by unnamed “executive” officials, who appear to be Hochul and former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, toward Chinese-friendly positions. Sun and Hu also laundered kickbacks she received from the People’s Republic of China and Chinese Communist Party...

A former aide to Gov. Kathy Hochul was arrested along with her husband Tuesday morning after their Long Island home was raided by the feds earlier this year, the FBI said. Linda Sun and her husband, Christopher Hu, were arrested on Long Island, the FBI confirmed to The Post. The charges remained under seal. Sun and Hu are set to be arraigned Tuesday afternoon. Law enforcement sources say the arrest was part of a corruption probe unrelated to the governor. Sun was first hired to work in the governor’s office by then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is set to testify next week before a House committee investigating his administration’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic — including an infamous mandate that forced infected patients into nursing homes. The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic announced Tuesday that it was preparing to question the ex-New York governor on Sept. 10 about the “unscientific guidance” that led to the deaths of thousands of senior citizens. “Andrew Cuomo owes answers to the 15,000 families who lost loved ones in New York’s nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Subcommittee Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio)....

You don’t get to insist Donald Trump’s private peccadilloes are a criminal matter while being silent about the corrupt relationships of Kamala Harris, the Clintons, and so many others.Pundit and talk radio host Erick Erickson recently went on a rant about how “both parties have nominated terrible candidates whose supporters have decided to behave terribly to bully people into supporting their terrible candidate.” Erickson makes it known he’s still inclined to vote for Trump, but you’d think any prominent right-wing pundit who publicly expresses doubt about Donald Trump two months before the election would be chalked up as a win...

Former CNN host Chris Cuomo might be no longer employed by one of the country’s premier liberal propagandists, but he’s proving one thing: He can’t handle the truth. And conservative commentator Bill O’Reilly speaking the truth about Vice President Kamala Harris was a case in point.

On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” Biden Surrogate Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) stated that President Joe Biden clearly didn’t have a good performance in Thursday night’s debate and he doesn’t know what President Joe Biden’s “advisers were thinking, having a 9:00 p.m. debate. There are probably not many people who are in their 70s and 80s around him, but he does much better in the day.” Khanna said, “Obviously, the President didn’t have a good night, but he admitted that. And he said, look, I’m old. I don’t know what his advisers were thinking, having a 9:00 p.m. debate. There...

During the online “Overtime” segment of Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) argued that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump and New York Attorney General Letitia James’ (D) case against the former President were bad cases that shouldn’t have been brought and wouldn’t have been brought if they were about anyone other than Trump and if Trump wasn’t a presidential candidate. After host Bill Maher brought up the Bragg case, Cuomo said, “That case, the attorney general’s case in New York, should have never...

CV NEWS FEED // Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, on Tuesday faced a closed-door hearing before the House select subcommittee assigned to investigate government actions taken in response to the outbreak of COVID-19. In March 2020, Cuomo issued an executive order requiring nursing homes in the Empire State to admit COVID-19 patients – despite the compromised health of residents. In a development widely attributed to the governor’s order, nursing homes immediately saw a wave of COVID-19 deaths among the elderly and infirm. A February 2021 report by the Empire Center noted that nursing home COVID-19 deaths in...

In compliance with a congressional subpoena, the disgraced former governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, finally arrived in Washington, DC, on Tuesday to answer for his pandemic actions before the subcommittee tasked with investigating the COVID-19 response. In typical fashion, he opened the hearing with the familiar lies and hackneyed talking points we have been hearing for four years. But unlike his Albany fireside chats in which he pretended to know what he was doing, Tuesday’s statements are now part of the congressional record and made under oath. Cuomo’s comment on the March 25, 2020, directive that sent more than...

"We want to uncover the circumstances that led to this. There has to be some kind of process where this was written up and...

He’s not mincing words. Republican New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu dished Thursday on the current and former governors who “nobody liked” — claiming that Gavin Newsom and Andrew Cuomo are despised by other state leaders. “I gotta be honest, no one cares for Gavin,” Sununu said of the California Democrat during an event at the Reagan Institute Summit on Education in Washington, DC. “Gavin is just a #$@_&. He just is,” he added. “It’s really disappointing.” Sununu, 49, indicated that he used to get along well with Newsom, but now, even Democratic governors can’t stand him.

You enjoy the view.”
