Karen Hinton, Ex-Cuomo Aide, Corroborates Lindsey Boylan's Account of Governor's Bullying

In an op-ed published in the New York Daily News, Hinton described Cuomo as a "bully" who exercised "total control," and made disparaging comments toward her.

Hinton's statements came on the same day that former Cuomo aide Lindsey Boylan accused the governor of sexually harassing her and amid additional accusations that Cuomo bullies and harasses those he disagrees with....

Hinton also said that Cuomo belittled her previous experience working for Mike Espy, who later became a Democratic Mississippi congressman.

"He told me I had only worked for a 'Black man from a small town in Mississippi' and, therefore, wasn't qualified to lead the public affairs office for him," she wrote.

The democrats don’t suddenly care about “me too” and mass murder in old folks homes. This is a democrat party internal power struggle.

No different than Stalin and Trotsky fighting for control of the Bolshevik party after Lenin died.

First it was mass murder. Then they throw in sexual assault. And now it’s racist comments too!

Is the smart money on getting rid of Cuomo to free up the path for Hillary to become Harris' VP (once doddering Biden gets put out to pasture)? Or is it for someone else?

I agree - the democrats are themselves colluding against him only now in unison and by design. Whatever may have happened in the past is only now being exposed by plan.

With any luck, this squashes his political career.

Doesn’t matter. ABC, NBC and CBS are not covering it so it really didn’t happen.

Why am I reminded of the Rush parody of Rush doing Bill Clinton calling Bob Torricelli to tell him it's over.

If you've never heard it, it's a classic Rush doing Bill Clinton.

Are you kidding? It is hard to find a major news organization NOT covering Boylan’s accusations.

The knives are out...

Clearly, Gov Cuomo got his sexual thrills exercising his political power over subordinates.

Cuomo considered a perk of his elected office.....what he knew was inappropriate behavior toward women.

Boylan seriously underestimates Cuomo.

She says only that Cuomo created a culture within his administration where sexual harassment and bullying is so pervasive that it is not only condoned but expected.

Women considered this an affirmation that he liked you, that you must be doing something right.

Then the inner monster lets loose....Cuomo lowers the boom.....using intimidation to silence these women.

And if they dared speak up, they would face consequences.

Ask Biden aide Tara Read.

Coumo has become too big an embarrassment for such a hateful little man. If you don’t believe he is a hateful little man name one magnanimous act that he has performed.

No doubt, but that’s not why this is happening. He could be the nicest guy in the world. This is a cynical power struggle inside the Democratic Party.

IMO, the truly radical leftists believe that in the nursing home deaths’ scandal, they have a big enough weapon to take Cuomo down. But to be sure, they’ll hit him with everything they can.

However... The Lt. Governor, Kathy Hochul, does not seem to be the sort of outright Commie the leftists would want as Governor. Possibly she’s considered weak and easily brushed aside?
