NY Lawmakers Will Suspend Impeachment Probe After Andrew Cuomo Resigns
Breitbart ^ | 13Aug | Caplan

Posted on 08/13/2021 2:17:55 PM PDT by qaz123

A top New York state Assembly lawmaker announced Friday that the impeachment investigation against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) will be suspended following his resignation.

“After consulting with Chair Lavine and my majority colleagues, the Assembly will suspend its impeachment investigation upon the governor’s resignation taking effect on August 25,” New York State Speaker Carl Heastie said in a statement. “There are two reasons for this decision. First, the purpose of the Assembly Judiciary Committee’s impeachment investigation was to determine whether Governor Cuomo should remain in office. The governor’s resignation answers that directive. Second, we have been advised by Chair Lavine – with the assistance of counsel – of the belief that the constitution does not authorize the legislature to impeach and remove an elected official who is no longer in office (see attached memo).”

There's literally no level of depravity, criminality or corruption a Democrat CAN'T get away with, these days. If they want you, they'll get you.

But if they don't, you might be passed over or cast aside, but you will NEVER be held accountable for your actions.

He will never be held to account for the 1000s that were murdered.

You mean like Congressional Democrats suspended the impeachment proceedings against President Trump once he left office?

There may not be an impeachment investigation under the circumstances. Okay. But there will be investigations into possible criminality just the same. Won't there???

Wow! What a surprise, especially since the Democrats own the State Assembly and State Senate. The same group of people gave him his emergency Covid powers, and should be hanging with him for the nursery home deaths.

Well, for one this is the state of NY, not the feds.

Cuomo doesn’t have over 75 million supporters like President Trump does.

Cuomo didn’t shut down their criminal enterprise for 4 years like President Trump did.

Cuomo didn’t beat them at their own game and at every turn.

Shall I go on?

The two cannot be compared in any way, shape or form.

America does shrug, unless you’re one of the thousands of family members of the people he murdered.

Uhhhhh.......Yes. Absolutely. 100%. Correct.

He was removed for a reason other than grabbing their thighs. A reason we’ll never really know.

Only way they go after him is if he doesn’t keep his mouth shut. If he starts raising sand about this, that or the other, then he might be in trouble. But at that point he just might end up in Ft Marcy Park.

"But at that point he just might end up in Ft. Marcy Park."

Once he moves out of the Governor's Mansion, he may end up living with his mother, in his brother Fredo's basement, or with one of his sisters. Instead of Ft. Marcy Park, it would be appropriate if his body was found hanging from the roof of the nursing home that suffered the most deaths from his evil pogrom.

A retroactive license to kill.

I would love to be as wrong as can be. But for now, it would appear so.
