Excuse me, but Mayor DimBlasio has already declared the existence of Silver’s “integrity” so what’s the problem?

I bet he will sing too, and I look forward to hearing it with great interest. Someone with his kind of power will have things to say on more than just unknown, behind-the-scenes kinds of people.

It must be serious when some of the top fishwrap says you (Cuomo) are in trouble.

Some insiders are saying that Cuomo’s closure of the Moreland Commission was a trick. He didn’t want to be seen as taking down a fellow Dem, so he closed down the commission and put the Feds on the case instead. Supposedly, his public resistance to Bharara was all an act, and he privately encouraged him to go after Silver.

Because of the way politicians behave in New York, many people find this highly credible. Cuomo may have even put the Post up to attacking him, because he knows it rallies his base.

Let’s wait and see what he says when the plea bargaining begins. It should get very interesting.

Isn’t this a great story? Love Goodwin.

I’m hoping this flood will rise to drown Cuomo.

I would bet Cuomo will get dragged into this investigation and found to be part of this corruption.

I just read his indictment. He made $121 K annually as a Democra Speaker of the New York House, but “earned” $6 million in “referral fees” as a lawyer.
The indictment says that the prosecutors contacted all clients he “referred” to another firm to receive a “referral fee.” The supposed clients told investigators that they didnt know who this man was and that he never contacted them. The indictment also claims a similar scheme with a real estate law firm. The indictment says that the 6 million actually came from bribes for “favors” and through mail fraud.

This is going to be a hard one for this corrupt politician to beat

One day, they will say the same about Obama. Everyone knew he was a foreigner. Everyone knew he was a Communist. Everyone did nothing about it.

These corrupt State governments are like the Mafia with the authority to tax.

Should we just call Cuomo Number 10?

I posted a link to this article on facebook (all my siblings live in New York City) with the comment, “What’s wrong with Kansas?”

The big-picture question is, why is the Obama administration pursuing this. Are they really interested in the welfare of the people of New York, or is this all about taking down Cuomo as a power broker to boost the influence of the Chicago Obamafia?

Preet was mentioned on the list to be the new AG for the nation. This bulldog instinct is why he wasn’t selected.
