The Cuomo brothers — and other liberal, privileged men — have finally outdone themselves
NY Post ^ | 8/3/2021 | Maureen Callahan

So, will Chris Cuomo, CNN’s most favored blowhard, report tonight on the bombshell findings into his brother’s long-term sexual predation?

My educated guess: No. Why would he? Cuomo the Younger is but one example of privileged, liberal men, high on their own self-regard, who have really outdone themselves this week.

Look at our disgraced governor Andrew. The deluge of credible accusations leveled against him months ago — truly despicable stuff — wasn’t enough to shame him from office. (Nor were the nursing home deaths he covered up, that’s another scandal.)

No, this self-styled feminist doubled down, seeming to out one of his own family members in claiming that he only kept asking one young staffer about her sexual assault because a family member had been sexually assaulted in high school and this had made him extra-sensitive.

That’s a new low, even for him.

There is no longer any debate as to what Gov. Cuomo did, how he abused his power, and what he truly thinks of women.

If #MeToo is to mean anything, Andrew Cuomo must go.

So too must Chris be ousted from his perch at CNN. As we now know, Chris secretly advised his brother to gut out this scandal, over a series of crisis talks, despite a pronounced conflict of interest.

Not only that — the AG report reveals that Chris, as The Post reported, was also given secret and privileged information from the Executive Branch during the crisis, helped draft at least one of his brother’s denials, and made decisions that impacted employees of the State. These are serious breaches of journalistic ethics.

I know, I know: Chris isn’t really a journalist. He just plays one on TV. But still — how can CNN expect to be taken seriously with this guy still on the air?

I would actually prefer to see Fredo canned. His brother would just be icing on the cake.

More indication of the Soviet-style Deep State Politburo, who has decided that the Cuomo family -- the entire family -- must go.

We have completely become the Soviet Union.

Remember, it’s ATT that’s ultimately paying to keep Chris.

Thanks, Oshkalaboomboom. This story is a real zinger.

Looks like the "Never that Great" Governor will be taken down. What? No Cuomo invitation to the Obama bash at his beachfront (soon to be underwater) mansion?

The kiss of political death.

Liz, even through the fog of a gazillion internet packets, I can clearly see the smirk on your face over this week's news :-) Enjoy.

via Bing “news” search, I get a single page - no groupings of MSM articles. nothing from NYT, WaPo, NPR, BBC, Guardian, MSNBC, CNN or the major US Networks.

taxpayer-funded ABC Australia has weak headline:

“New York Attorney-General’s investigation finds Governor Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women, Cuomo denies it”

Sydney Morning Herald in Australia has even worse:

“Andrew Cuomo’s Trumpian bid to survive his sexual harassment scandal”

CNN expects to be taken seriously? Really? Sure could have surprised me.

I no longer recall who tagged him with “Fredo”, but it hit him in the ten ring. His reaction was priceless.

Most stories credit an unnamed Trump supporter sending Chris into a rage by calling him Fredo to his face but Rush Limbaugh also took credit for it.

We’ll see about that. Don’t buy any expensive champagne to celebrate.
Buy a two liter of Mountain Dew instead to play it safe.

Doing a Google search on Cuomo women brings up a whole bunch of articles from major media in the last 18 hours.

It looks like today is the day the knives really come out.

I live in Spain so their version of champagne, called Cava, goes for as little as 1.5 Euros for a 750ml bottle. We buy the more expensive stuff at 1.95

“Journalistic ethics” ... “conflict of interest”

LOL. Just no. These institutions have aligned interests. sometime deliberate misleading of the public is called for. For our own good.

RHIP.

I hope Cuomo is innocent of the sex crimes he’s charged with but is found guilty anyway, so he can have a minute taste of the injustices he visited on elderly nursing home residents.

I member of my family was sexually assaulted in high school.
I understand what sexual assault is.

My accusers describe acts that do not rise to the level of sexual assault.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo
