Gov. Andrew Cuomo remains firm on keeping the job “the people of New York have elected him to serve.”
He wasn’t going to cave after Attorney General Letitia James released a scathing 165-page investigative report detailing his “sexually predatory” and “toxic bullying” behavior targeting young women and political opponents in his administrative orbit. One of the 11 young female alleged victims indelicately summed up the governor’s behavior as “sleazy and creepy” in the extreme.
Many in Cuomo’s own party have said the governor ought to resign his office. If Cuomo is thinking of resigning, he must be doing it poolside -- at the politician’s mansion in Albany -- where he was photographed hunkering down this week. He wasn’t alone.
The governor was photographed with an unidentified (but shapely) blonde sharing the poolside experience. No doubt his public relations team viewed the photograph as an unfortunate distraction that couldn’t have come at a worse time. Impeachment proceedings against the politician are heating up, along with the endless session, now dragging into its sixth month, of the New York State Assembly.
One of the 150-member assembly claimed that Cuomo’s removal was “inevitable,” asserting that 80 assembly members support impeachment, going beyond the 76 votes required for a simple majority.
Cuomo is entitled to due process, but his opponents appear to be in a hurry to speed up his removal. They are appealing to the court of public opinion, which is what really counts in turning the protracted wheels of justice. This is a domain where they rule as the masters at manipulating a compliant media. Why wait for the matter to be voted on?

Unless he’s forcibly removed from the governorship, Cuomo isn’t going anywhere.
Like most states, the CONVICTION requires a 2/3 majority of the senate and they even add 7 judges to the mix.
I have not heard a single word from any demonRAT NY Senator about the upcoming trial.
Like so many impeachments the House brings charges, but the Senate doesn't reach a 2/3 majority.
Sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Hanging tough? BS...He’s just making a further a** of himself.
His sticking around makes sense if one looks at his situation strictly from his viewpoint.
He literally has nowhere to go if he resigns in disgrace. His entire life has been to climb as high as possible up the political ladder and then get rich as a lobbyist...he has no useful skills, like plumbing, working on cars, typing, etc. He simply becomes an over-aged trust-fund kid, living off of what his dad raked in.
But if he can get through this, perhaps people, or enough people, start to forget it ever happened and he has a chance of getting back to his life destiny (as he sees it), or at least close to doing so.
The dems would never agree to take him out of office unless they had someone MUCH WORSE to replace him!
“ Unless he’s forcibly removed from the governorship, Cuomo isn’t going anywhere.”
*************
Agree. I’m betting that a year from now he will be sitting right where he is; behind the governor’s desk….
Coming from Lemon, THAT'S sexual harassment!
Andrew needs to stay off of private planes—and you do not want to get on the same airplane as this guy!
The Deep State motto—gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette.
They have a woman to replace him. That’s what this is all about. Kathy will do the job!!
Example, William Jefferson Clinton is on the flight log of Epstein's plane multiple times for flights to Lolita Island and it's overlooked! He wasn't going there to get cookie ingredients for his Mrs!!!!!!
Why Coumo? Why now? Why not Mr Clinton?
Mistress Kamala wants him out of the way.
All the Obamunists view Killer Cuomo as unworthy and want him eliminated. That AG woman is garbage and fulfilling the playbook.
Let Killer Cuomo bleed out and take every Rat he can with him.
I’m no cuomo fan. But isn’t it conflict of interest that this AG doing investigation wants his job?
All kinds of conflicts, real and potential.
Means nothing even as Killer Cuomo sent thousands to their deaths.
What matters is the trigger is pulled. Mistress Kamala and the Obamunists say Killer Cuomo needs to be removed from the political field.
Remember, only a year ago, the Rat Media was fawning over this guy. Fawning over him even as he was killing seniors by the thousands.
They all knew.
Like the "New Kids on the Block"?
According to DOJ,he did nothing wrong in nursing homes. Laughable.
If Handy Andy gets booted, the Lt.Governor automatically takes his place.
They want him replaced by a woman...whom will do the bidding of the party. A simple strategy move.
I know that. I’m talking about the next election 2022.
