Cuomo Blames ‘Politics,’ Fails to Address Nursing Home Cover-Up Admission
New York Post ^ | February 15, 2021 | Carl Campanile and Bruce GoldingFebruary 15, 2021

Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday tried to dig himself out of the biggest hole of his career by blaming politics for the controversy engulfing his administration following The Post’s revelation that his top aide admitted withholding data about nursing home deaths amid a federal probe.

During a virtual news conference at which he declined to take a question from The Post, Cuomo claimed that “there’s nothing to investigate” regarding the cover-up to which Secretary to the Governor Melissa DeRosa confessed during a video conference call with Democratic lawmakers last week.

Cuomo never directly addressed DeRosa’s recorded remarks in which she admitted “we froze” over whether to come clean to the Legislature — or the public — about nursing home deaths in the face of a Justice Department inquiry.

If you’re stupid, don’t ask for an executive job.

It was political. Cuomo should be hanged in public.

The man is a psychopathic, neurotic, obsessive, controlling abuser who is only concerned with his fiefdom. His “subjects” be damned. He is omnipotent and shall not be challenged. He needs to be arrested for 15,000 counts of criminally negligent homicide.

Only now, when it can’t corroborate Trump’s claims regarding Cuomo’s mishandling of COVID, does the truth come out. They sat on this until it couldn’t help Trump. They ran with the story that it was Trumps fault until now. The same with the Lincoln project and it will be the same with election fraud, and the same with Pelosi’s involvement in the breach of the Capitol.

Its always been out in the open. Still is. "Never let a crisis go to waste" - Rahm Emanuel.

If you are lazy and abusive, you govern with crisis driven policies and laws. You brag about it to the world despots and control thugs who do the same.

Welcome to the great reset methodology.

Politics is your department, buddy.

If there’s a problem there, it’s on your shoulders.

Many things went wrong during the procedural phase. (Who wouldn’t know sending an infected patient in close quarters would spread disease?). My persons of interest are the medical professionals that denied treatment -CDC, NIH, Fauci, etc. that could have prevented hospitalizations.

In a corrupt blue state surrounded by corrupt blue minnions he claims “politics”. We as a nation will never recover unless we punish those who break the law. Without laws we are no longer a nation.
