IT'S ON: New York Republicans File Andrew Cuomo Impeachment in State Assembly

On Monday, Republicans in the New York State Assembly announced an impeachment resolution against Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), saying the governor has lost “credibility and trust” and has therefore lost the ability to lead the state during the COVID-19 pandemic. While Republicans only have a minority in both the New York State Assembly and New York State Senate, many Democrats have demanded Cuomo’s resignation, and the governor has refused to step down.

“We’re going to introduce this resolution because we believe the time has come,” State Assembly Minority Leader Will Barclay said in a press conference on Monday. “In order to lead this great state as governor, you need to have credibility and trust … and unfortunately, we feel the governor has lost that and now has an inability to lead.”

“I don’t think I’ve used the term ‘bombshell’ especially this week, any time more in my life, it has been one bombshell after another,” Barclay said, referencing the many scandals Cuomo has faced in the past few weeks.

“We had the AG report come out saying that the governor was underreporting nursing home deaths by as much as 50%,” Barclay said. “We had that secret political meeting where he had his top aides say they weren’t reporting the nursing home deaths because they were worried about a Department of Justice investigation—they were worried about the political fallout.”

Barclay referenced “the bullying and the harassing of sitting members of the state legislature. Then we had five courageous women come forward to talk about their abuse, sexual harassment, and other abuse at the hands of the governor.”

“As you heard the governor say yesterday, I’m not going to resign, if you want to get rid of me, start impeachment,” Barclay said, referencing the governor’s remarks to Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins

Yet another example of the cluelessness on our side.

“IT’S ON” ???

What is “on”?

Pointless Republican futility in support of the Deep State kabuki show?

Instead of the empty bombast of impeachment, why not get every Republican together EVERY day to DEMAND that Cuomo be charged with manslaughter?

EVERY Republican EVERY day DEMANDING that Cuomo be charged with manslaughter. EVERY Republican EVERY day in EVERY district they represent talking to the local media and DEMANDING that Cuomo be charged with manslaughter.

But that will not happen. Why? Because they are part of the show, most likely, or just too stupid to be effective.

Even in NY people overwhelmingly KNOW that Cuomo is guilty of manslaughter. But no, a pointless, futile gesture in support of Deep State kabuki is what these idiots and morons choose.

“Meh. Leave him alone, NY’ers deserve him.”

NY is just like America. A lot of red with pockets of high population density blue. We have Cuomo for the same reason YOU have Biden. So leave Biden alone, you deserve him.
