Report: Andrew Cuomo Attempting to Cut Deal to Avoid Impeachment
Breitbart ^ | 08/09/2021 | Joshua Kaplan

Posted on 08/09/2021 1:08:50 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) is reportedly seeking a deal with state lawmakers to avoid being impeached over a bombshell report on myriad sexual harassment allegations.

The report comes one day after Melissa DeRosa, a top aide to Cuomo, announced her resignation. In February, the New York Post reported that DeRosa admitted to lawmakers that her team withheld the number of coronavirus deaths in New York’s nursing homes to protect the Cuomo administration’s from an investigation by then-President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice.

This is what his strategy has been all along.

He can put lots of his attackers in very hot water BUT if they offer him a soft enough landing he’s gone.

The Clinton Crime Family (outside of NYS) have been a “fail army” since Monica and I’m hoping Cuomo will continue the tradition.

Cuomo has done an excellent job of changing the subject away from killing nursing home residents.

You mean the media has done an excellent job.

“Andy the mobster is in the house.”

I know real mobsters, and Andy ain’t no mobster.

He’s Spider serving the coffee.

He’s a punk-arsed, red-diaper, golden-spoon, failed lawyer, petty political tyrant who rode in on his corrupt daddy’s wings. Just like Hillary, he’s also been a miserable failure at every job he’s ever had.

I wonder if he loses his pension or any benefits if he's impeached.

Anyone know?

It looks as if the people of New York got the Governor they deserve. They knew that he was a son of a bitch before they elected him.

It’s really nice down there, except for the NY State Gooberment.

I’d be happy to live in the general Finger Lakes area if it weren’t for The State.

The Iroquois Confederacy seemed to like the area....

It's been a team effort. Soon those dead nursing home residents will never have died, and will be ready to vote for Democrats.

To the Left, grabbing butts is way more important than murder.

Interesting. According to wiki the vote to convict must be 2/3rds. The “court” consists of the Senate minus the Majority Leader plus 7 judges he appointed. That’s 69 total, so 2/3rd would be 46. If we assume all Rs will vote in favor, he needs to hold 27 of the remining 49 or 55%, which seems unlikely at this point but not impossible.

If I was a R senator in NYS I’d vote not to convict. Let the Dems deal with him.

He’s a Dem, so he’s a shoo-in. Shoe-in?

Easy fellas. Horseheads is about the only place left in NY that I would ever think of living in again. Very MAGA country. I even graduated high school there.
