Fox news ^ | 04/18/2022 | Hanna Panreck

Disgraced ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo, D-N.Y., wrote in a Monday column for the New York Daily News that New York Lt. Gov. Brian Benjamin's resignation and indictment "raises troubling questions."

Cuomo, who resigned as governor in August 2021 following several sexual misconduct allegations, said that his administration "reformed the insidious pork-barrel member-item process" after several scandals. Benjamin was forced to resign last week over federal charges of bribery and other offenses.

The same way Governor Eliot Spitzer resigned for frequenting prostitutes, and Governor David Paterson who had been Sptizer’s Lt. Governor, ended his plans to run for election because of witness tampering in a domestic abuse case involving one of his top aides, and for lying under oath to the Commission on Public Integrity about five free World Series tickets he had accepted as a gift. Where there’s a Democrat Governor & Lt. Governor of New York State, there’s a shit load of corruption.
