Cuomo is just as dirty or he wouldn’t have these people around him...

I guess that would be just as true for Andrew as it would Mario.

A close relative of mine went to college with cuomo and later worked with him on mario cuomos staff when he was the gov. He left that job because he said Andrew was as corrupt as they come....

I ‘heard’ when I lived in PA that Mario had some mob connections, don’t know, never researched it, but I bet Rudy would know...

Should be able to ride this to Cuomo. I suspect he is every bit as corrupt.

And how about the Schumer... Needs looking into.

Having mob friend and mob connections are two REALLY different things.

I hated pop’s politics but if he ran for pres, people in hi family would have been outed.

My uncles, 2, both dead, were mafiosi, my grandfather was mafioso.

That doesn’t make me mafia. At least as far as you know :)

Seven charged in a pay-to-play plot. Hmmm...”pay-to-play”...has a vaguely familiar ring to it...where have I heard that recently?

Wherever I heard it, I’m sure nobody is above the law and all corrupt politicians enriching themselves through their offices will be held to account.

Please excuse me...I have to go feed the unicorns.

It’s been well known that Coumo is corrupt since the mid 1980s

I talked to reporters working on the story at the NY Post about his shenanigans when he was running H.E.L.P.

His luck is about to run out.

I know where your coming from...my great grand father and grand father was also connected...my half brother’s father’s family was connected...

I agree, having being inside is a lot different than being outside, but we wouldn’t make it off first base...right???

I wonder if I ran for office (which I would NEVER DO), if all the folk in my family involved with or close friends with mafiosi would have been harassed by feds.

That’s enough of a reason right there to not run. I think that was more Cuomo’s reason.

I didn’t condone what they did, but I’m not going to draw attention to my own family and have their offspring humiliated.

Your profile needs to be made into an ongoing thread that we can update.

I, for one, will use it going forward.
