On Sunday, new sexual misconduct allegations were brought forward against New York governor Andrew Cuomo by one of his former advisers.
The serious allegations were made by progressive activist Lindsey Boylan who came forward in a series of tweets.
“Yes, @NYGovCuomo sexually harassed me for years. Many saw it, and watched,” she said. “I could never anticipate what to expect: would I be grilled on my work (which was very good) or harassed about my looks. Or would it be both in the same conversation? This was the way for years.”
“Not knowing what to expect what’s the most upsetting part aside from knowing that no one would do a damn thing even when they saw it. No one. And I *know* I am not the only woman,” she added. “I’m angry to be put in this situation at all. That because I am a woman, I can work hard my whole life to better myself and help others and yet still fall victim as countless women over generations have. Mostly silently. I hate that some men, like @NYGovCuomo abuse their power.”
The allegations come as former Vice President Joe Biden is considering Cuomo as his attorney general pick, assuming Biden takes office in January.
“Cuomo has been asked in recent weeks about his interest in the attorney general spot,” the Associated Press reported. “Just this week, he said in a public radio interview in New York, ‘I have no intention to run for president or vice president, or go to the administration.’ But he said the attorney general job ‘is really critical, especially now.'”
The report that Cuomo may become the United States Attorney General came to a surprise to many considering Cuomo's past.
The New York Times reported:
A three-month examination by The New York Times found that the governor’s office deeply compromised the panel’s work, objecting whenever the commission focused on groups with ties to Mr. Cuomo or on issues that might reflect poorly on him.
Ultimately, Mr. Cuomo abruptly disbanded the commission halfway through what he had indicated would be an 18-month life. And now, as the Democratic governor seeks a second term in November, federal prosecutors are investigating the roles of Mr. Cuomo and his aides in the panel’s shutdown and are pursuing its unfinished business.
Before its demise, Mr. Cuomo’s aides repeatedly pressured the commission, many of whose members and staff thought they had been given a once-in-a-career chance at cleaning up Albany. As a result, the panel’s brief existence — and the writing and editing of its sole creation, a report of its preliminary findings — was marred by infighting, arguments and accusations. Things got so bad that investigators believed a Cuomo appointee was monitoring their communications without their knowledge. Resignations further crippled the commission. In the end, the governor got the Legislature to agree to a package of ethics reforms far less ambitious than those the commission had recommended — a result Mr. Cuomo hailed as proof of the panel’s success.
Future US Attorney General.
He’s a Democrat, which means the woman is lying.
Such allegations are merely resume' enhancers for Democrat/Communists.
Well, in the RAT playbook, Cuomo is the right crook for the job.
Lady, nobody will care about what this turd did to you. He is your better.
Ted Kennedy murdered Mary Jo and was a dem superstar.
Cuomo beat Teddy’s body count with the nursing home thing.
This must have happened when the demon who possesses Cuomo took the day off. They usually don’t let their subjects screw up this badly until they’re done with them.
Russian Disinformation spread by Russian Agent Donald Trump. Just ask Eric Swalwell.
Complaint carefully timed until after the election.
Yep. Sleepy Joe feels a certain comraderie with Baby Doc Cuomo.
She’s a “progressive activist”, which means she will say whatever she thinks will help Socialism.
Ms. Boylan, you let this go on for years and said nothing. So I have to ask, what were you getting out of all this?
He’s accused of murdering thousands of elderly nursing home residents. That’s fine, but,....gasp....someone has #metood him. Now THAT’S serious.
People should remember that Andrew Cuomo was personally responsible for setting off the housing crisis, when he was Attorney General for Bill Clinton.
It was the fair housing act and other such nonsense created by Carter and Clinton that tried to Increase black ownership of houses, by ridiculous government mandates.
It wasn’t working very well because banks would do the normal business of banks, which was to make sure you qualified for a loan before they gave you one.
You know, like you had to have a job and you had to purchase a house within your means...
They invented the new evil term “redlining”, and told the public how evil it was to make sure people could pay back a loan.
So Andrew Cuomo sued the Bank of America for refusing to make bad loans, calling it racist. In front of a liberal judge he got what was then the biggest judgment in history.
The banks then realized they could either not make a bad loan and get sued, or make a bad loan and the Government would guarantee it.
So they made billions in bad loans.
Carter and Clinton created the bomb, Andrew Cuomo lit the fuse.
That's OK, he's a democrat, part of the ruling class..
Nothing to see here, move along.....
Why didn’t she come forward when it was happening? Tired of these man hating shrews always playing the gender card.
Don’t be shocked if she tried to and it was broomed under the carpet until the election passed - like Hunter’s legal problems.
