I have no sympathy for either of the Cuomo brothers, but I believe the ex-governor is being treated unfairly. It seems that his property, the $5.1 million he was authorized to receive while governor, now is being taken by the vote of an administrative agency. I am not aware that Cuomo had a hearing or had any opportunity to object to this decision. Thus, it seems his property has been taken without due process. I don’t see Cuomo simply rolling over and paying the money to the State. I do wonder how Cuomo likes the feeling of being canceled and driven into the wilderness by those who heaped praise on him until it no longer was politically expedient?

Yeah right. Like the Rodham Brothers returning money from selling pardons.

I see a lawsuit forthcoming on this one.
As much as I despise Cuomo, I think he has a good case to not pay this money back. Yup.
You write a book, you take the earnings from the book, irrespective of if you are governor or not.

He used state resources and state paid staffers to help write the book on state taxpayer time
How is that legal or ethical?

Don’t let them fool you, that book was written by Staff on State Time and the Editors did the rest. It is all a ruse, and, frankly, I think the $5 Million should go to all of the families who lost loved ones due to Prince Andrew’s despicable and criminal behavior.

I agree. They approved the book deal and now they want to rescind it.
I despise him with a vengeance, but this has got to be a joke.

I think A.C. is a murderer...
But he wrote a book...
Why should the state demand his book money??

The panel found Cuomo’s book proceeds should be turned over to state Attorney General Letitia James... James would determine to whom the profits would be distributed. I smell a Rat.

Isn’t one of Trumps people being prosecuted for using a company car, which Trump provided for him for work?
Odd how all of this happens in a corrupt state in the SDNY
