NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio said during an interview on “Morning Joe” on Thursday that he believed NY Assemblyman Ron Kim and his accusations that Gov. Andrew Cuomo threatened him in an effort to keep him from investigating the state’s response to the coronavirus, especially as it relates to deaths in nursing homes:
Wow. Mayor Bill de Blasio is on MSNBC saying he believes Ron Kim and Governor Cuomo is a bully.
“That’s classic Andrew Cuomo. A lot of people in New York State have received those phone calls.”— Emma G. Fitzsimmons (@emmagf) February 18, 2021
No wonder the state is in such awful shape as the U.S. Senate Majority leader hates the governor who hates NYC’s mayor:
One New Yorker who will be (privately) happy to see Cuomo in the barrel: Charles E. Schumer, who's eager to see any/all left-wing heat at home aimed in another direction

"I believe Ron Kim 100%."
