New York State Assemblyman Ron Kim – who said Gov. Andrew Cuomo threatened to ruin his career for speaking out against his mishandling of the nursing home crisis during the coronavirus pandemic – is now calling for Cuomo to face impeachment.

"Cuomo abused his powers to hide life and death information from the Department of Justice that prevented lawmakers from legislating – like fully repealing corporate immunity for nursing homes. That is an impeachable offense," Kim wrote on Twitter on Monday.

"The only way to protect the integrity of the co-equal branch of the state government, AKA the 'People's House,' is to start impeachment," he wrote in another tweet.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, who has long had a tense relationship with Cuomo, called for a full investigation into coronavirus nursing home deaths on Monday.

"I have not spoken to [Cuomo]. No, I do not accept his explanation," de Blasio said during a press conference. "There needs to be a full investigation ... we need to get the whole truth and make sure nothing like this ever happens ever again."

Governor Newsom is going to have to jump to Cuomo’s defense here. Because if Cuomo can be impeached and charged for his criminal actions vis-a-vis nursing homes and COVID-19, then Newsom can too. And several other governors with similar policies.

I’ve been calling for their indictment for months for tens of thousands of cases of criminally negligent homicide. That’s looking more and more possible every day!

Nothing is going to happen to Cooomo. Its already been posted 25 times that Cruz’s poodle is going to take the wrap for this, being the real mastermind.

Yes, impeachable, but also criminal.

Cuomo needs to be convicted in a court of law and given the maximum punishment possible.
