No they don’t care. Imagine if a Republican governor were to have done this. Can you imagine the media outrage that would follow?

#Death-by-Cuomo

Just imagine the body count if we had President HilLIARy

The ‘good news’ (?) is that most likely no patriot would still be alive to worry about it

[ ...note the date... ]

New York state faces $6.1 billion budget hole next year: officials

By Bernadette Hogan and Carl Campanile

NY Post | November 22, 2019

Gov. Cuomo faces a growing budget mess as officials projected a shocking $6.1 billion hole in the state’s finances next year.

The figure was provided by the state Division of Budget in its mid-year budget report, which was released weeks after its legally mandated due date.

That tallies up to roughly 6 percent of the state’s $102 billion budget for its agencies and operations.

More than half of the gap — $4 billion — is linked to a dramatic rise in the state’s Medicaid costs.

In an effort to patch the hole, Cuomo is considering slashing payments to hospitals and nursing homes in the current budget and perhaps next year.

Fedzilla changed its regs to allow facilities to refuse returns if necessary.

Cuomo ordered them sent back despite the leeway Fedzilla gave.

There’s a lot that needs investigating. Why were cases sent Upstate, for example?

The press won’t cover it simply because he is a Democrat! His policies has only been to give himself POWER. Hail with the people of the state of NY.

If anyone wants a small scale example to investigate, check out Steuben County in Upstate NY.

Cuomo is responsible for thousands of deaths due to his political stupidity. New Yorkers voted him into office, now live with it.

= = = =

Agree, completely!

Imagine if this were Pataki....the media outrage.

Speaking of Pataki.....where is HE calling out this horrid Gov Cuomo?

(Let me guess...being a Bushie about it?)

The ONLY recent news I saw Pataki mentioned in is for stories about rebuilding NY....nothing about this nursing home tragedy.

Oh....and, I also saw this....

The Cuomo team in New York does not come to the table with clean hands. Whether through incompetence, or with malicious aforethought, these patients, many of whom were still contagious, were sent to facilities that had neither the means not the inclination to keep them segregated with suitable precautions in place until certain the contagious stage was past.

I know, hindsight is 20-20. But there was plenty of historical precedent, and it was roundly ignored.

Governor DeSantis FL, refused to do what Cuomo was doing, he was harassed and criticized for not releasing sick Seniors into nursing homes. They thought he was a murderer for not protecting a huge vulnerable population. Now, who protected the most vulnerable?

It’s been known since almost day one that the elderly were particularly vulnerable to this. Pretty much every state locked down the nursing homes, I’m pretty sure that was part of the federal guidelines. It is so obvious that letting carriers in there is a recipe for disaster that this almost must have been intentional!

All this sounds sarcastic I mean that the left believe this literally.

They died in service to the cause, no need to cover it, just move on. Besides, they don’t want to take time away from the latest manufactured Trump comments.
