Newsmax host Greg Kelly defended embattled New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo after the state attorney general’s office released a report that concluded he had sexually harassed multiple women and broke state and federal law. Attorney General Letitia James did not announce any charges against the Democrat.
Cuomo denied wrongdoing. “That’s just not who I am,” he said.
“Mob mentality has formed yet again around Andrew Cuomo this time,” Kelly told his audience on Tuesday night, before referencing the attorney general’s report.
“Here’s the thing,” said Kelly. “I’m not buying it.”
The host said he’s “not a fan” of Cuomo, “but he’s no sexual predator.”
“What is said about him can be said about a lot of people, actually. And if he goes down, I think a lot of people will be at risk. Isn’t it wild that this guy is suddenly a monster, yet we’ve all seen Joe Biden grab and smell and grope people for years and the left elevated him to the presidency?”
Kelly said he’s skeptical of the report because he’s leery of James, who may have higher political aspirations. After playing a clip of James speaking at a news conference earlier in the day, Kelly said, “You can tell right now. I mean, she’s just overdoing it.”
“I’ve been through the report,” he said. “It’s a couple hundred pages long, but the meat of it? I’m sorry. I don’t think it’s there.”
Kelly noted that one of Cuomo’s accusers said the governor subjected her to unwelcome nonconsensual kissing, touching and comments.
“I didn’t like this as a kid. I was not a kisser when I was eight years old, but people say hello by kissing. You’ve seen it a million times.” As Kelly said this, the network played b-roll of famous people kissing each other hello.
“For centuries, that’s the way it worked,” he claimed.
Kelly did not mention the fact that two of the women in the report said Cuomo kissed them on the lips. In recapping the report, he also omitted the allegations by two women that Cuomo had grabbed their butts, an allegation by another who said Cuomo grabbed her breast, as well as a host of weird and creepy comments Cuomo is accused of making.
“I believe him,” said Kelly. “And I know stuff that happens. I can see a freakin’ witch hunt when it happens and that’s what’s happening here. ”
Kelly added, “There are some things in here that are disturbing maybe, but I think he’s being railroaded.”
I knew there was a reason I quit watching NewsMax. Instincts.

Kelly was accused of rape.
If it ends with burning Cuomo at the stake, who’s to object?
Could be he’s a fellow groper.
I’m sorry. Sometimes the target of a witch hunt really is a witch. Cuomo is scum and deserves everything he’s getting.
His eyes must have been burning for four years with all the witch hunts Trump had to endure.
Well, some on these claims are nonsense, but at least 2 of them are seem valid.
The Rats have decided that Cuomo is a problem, and have decided to unload him.
Rat Hunt, Witch Hunt...
I wouldn’t describe Kelly’s comments as a defense of Cuomo’s character, but possibly a defense of the abandoned legal processes.
His father was the NYC police commissioner and he certainly knew Andrew’s father, Mario. This sounds like politics and a case of returning a favor.
yup- i used to watch him every morning here on Good Morning NY. He was suspended by some chick who had it out for him.
Completely exonerated and returned to his desk. While i don’t agree with his views on cuomo, Kelly had been through the ringer with false accusations of sexual abuse.
But, hypocrisy is mindboggling. There are photos of Biden groping women and credible accusations of credible assault against him and Democrats and the media couldn't give a hoot.
he was suspended after a chick leveled completely false accusations against him i should say.
Well, look, I can see it being a witch hunt too.
They’re wanting to roast Cuomo for being affectionate? These same people were silent when AC was killing seniors.
These same people say nothing about Joe Biden’s smelly obsession and supposedly showering with his daughter....but went ballistic when Donald Trump complimented Ivanka’s looks.
Cuomo is not being targeted for the “hostile workplace”—he is being targeted so he can be taken out. And no one on the left wants to charge him with his real crime of harming seniors during the COVID breakout.
JMHO, vet.
Kelly sorta has a point.
That Cuomo is a perv and a predator is NOT news.
So why is this happening now?
Never interrupt the enemy when they are conducting a democrat witch hunt.
Bingo.
i don’t agree with Kelly on Cumo, but obviously this hits a nerve with him:
Greg Kelly Rape Probe Ends in ‘Total Exoneration’ Letter From Prosecutor
NEW YORK — Manhattan prosecutors closed their two-week rape investigation of Greg Kelly, a local television newscaster and son of the city police commissioner, with an unusual letter clearing him of all criminal conduct.
“The facts established during our investigation do not fit the definitions of sexual assault crimes under New York criminal law,” Martha Bashford, chief of the sex crimes unit in the Manhattan district attorney’s office, wrote in the letter to Andrew Lankler, Kelly’s attorney. “Therefore, no criminal charges are appropriate.”
