Full Title: N.Y. Gov. Cuomo blocks some federal judges from officiating at weddings — because they might be Trump nominees

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has vetoed a noncontroversial bipartisan bill that would have allowed all federal judges to officiate weddings in the state because some might have been nominated to the bench by President Donald Trump.

"I cannot in good conscience support legislation that would authorize such actions by federal judges who are appointed by this federal administration," Cuomo's veto message stated.

"President Trump does not embody who we are as New Yorkers," the Democratic governor added Friday. "The cornerstones that built our great state are diversity, tolerance and inclusion. Based on these reasons, I must veto this bill."

So because I don’t like President Trump; YOU can’t get married ...

The Governor is a small man in a big man’s job

What a fool and coward he is, yet, New Yorkers can’t stop electing him to stay in office. Sort of the Angela Merkel of New York State.

“The cornerstones that built our great state are diversity, tolerance and inclusion.”

Silly me. I could have sworn it was industry, high finance, entrepreneurialism, international trade and victory in some great battles in the Revolutionary War.

It’s long past time to jettison the old, worn out, and anachronistic moniker “The Empire State.” I heartily endorse “The Diversity, Tolerance and Inclusion State.”

There are a lot of psychiatrists in New York. Andy should find one.

I’d endorse that too, as long as Little Andy would keep his people from infesting other states. Seeing a NY license plate sickens me.

How did this little bitch ever come up with the idea that he determines “..what we, as New Yorkers, stand for.”? President Trump was a New Yorker long before this putz was even born. I think we’ve been calling the wrong Cuomo, Fredo.

Isn’t Cuomo the one who celebrated Trump leaving the state of New York for Florida? Low IQ individual.

Fascism and insanity run in the family. Just look at the father Mario, who openly denied that the Mafia existed, that it was just a plot to “defame Italians”. Wonder how much they gave to his campaigns.

Gov. Andrew. Little Mussolini with half the charisma and just a nasty son of a bitch as a person. Wonder how much Mafia he got for his campaigns.

Chris Cuomo. A Fascist thug with a microphone. One day someone is going to shove that mike up his ass and CNN will be broadcasting his show from inside his bowels. That might be worth listening to. He could do his imitation of Swallowswell “I didn’t do that” fart”, in the key of F
Flatulence).

What a “famia”. Mussolini could really have used them back in the good old days of invasions, torture and mass murder (sorta like the Mafia’s New York in the past).

These politicians need to take their ‘personal spats’ with each other off the table and do their jobs!

Nadler hates Trump for business deals he preventd as well....these are men fighting back at each other on taxpayer money and using their positions of power in Government to bear on each other.....

This has got to stop! Take their hits from the past and get on with Governing this country!

I guess I am one of those license plates that sickens you. You sound as bad as Cuomo.
There are 2.6 million registered Republicans in NYS. That’s a lot more than some other states. Yet we are dismissed and made to feel unwelcome in our own home state.

NO, NO and NO :)

Assimilation and earned acceptance are some of the cornerstones.

Not his leftist mantra

Those Indians on Manhatten Island got a better deal than the Cleavland Indians did for Cory Kluber last week!

Felt the same way living in California, we kind of get lumped in with the Dems - retired and moved back home to Texas after 30 years, first thing I did was register my Jeep for the Texas plates.

Tolerance and inclusion doesn’t apply to Trump, his supporters, or judges who were nominated by him.
