.@TishJames says it’s a “deeply disturbing” picture. @NYGovCuomo harassed employees, including groping and kissing. The Governor and his staff violated multiple state and federal laws. “This investigation reveals conduct that corrodes the fabric of our state government…”
— Courtney Gross (@courtneycgross) August 3, 2021
"The investigation found that Gov. Cuomo sexually harassed current, former NY state employees by engaging in unwelcome, non-consensual touching and making numerous offensive comments of a suggestive, sexual nature that created a hostile work environment for women," NY AG says. pic.twitter.com/BOfqho55I8
— MSNBC (@MSNBC) August 3, 2021
On at least one occasion, the investigation found, Cuomo and his senior staff worked to retaliate against a former employee who accused him of wrongdoing. Cuomo was also found to have harassed women outside of government, the investigation found.https://t.co/jZKCAvxPBF

Gov Cuomo sexual harassment report is just yikes.
Gov Cuomo, “Do you like older men? I’m lonely and want to be touched… you look like Daisy Duke… you should get a tattoo on your butt… If you were single, the things I would do to you…” #creep

Gross.
The report by New York AG Letitia James concluded that NY Governor Andrew Cuomo "engaged in conduct constituting sexual harassment under federal & New York state law" & that Cuomo "sexually harassed a number of current & former New York State employees."https://t.co/q38xm7z0el pic.twitter.com/0fjdbA2Peh

Could it be that Andrew Cuomo’s number has finally come up?

Or does it?
And he will face no consequences. https://t.co/wJS9iCwqb1

He very well may not:

Oh.
BREAKING: Andrew Cuomo to announce he's going after assault rifles and taking on the NRA https://t.co/1Rbe9CeEsr
— Anang Mittal अनंग मित्तल (@anangbhai) August 3, 2021
And apparently that will be fine with AG Letitia James.
"I never harassed anyone, I never assaulted anyone, I never abused anyone," Cuomo said in March. "I'm not going to resign."
What now? https://t.co/T5H7zwUStQ
— Henry Rodgers (@henryrodgersdc) August 3, 2021
If he’s not going to be punished, he’s really got no reason to resign, does he?
"… but he's a powerful Democrat, so whaddyagunnado?"

Cuomo isn't stupid…and he isn't resigning. He will follow the Northam plan:
Just sit there, and dare Democrats to do something.
And we all know Democrats won't do anything, any more than the GOP would. pic.twitter.com/5qd0ps0qQD

Guys:
.@TishJames on what is next for Cuomo and her investigation: "We're going to allow the chips to fall where they may"
— John Roberts (@johnrobertsFox) August 3, 2021
"That decision is ultimately up to the governor of the state of New York," AG Tish James says, when asked if Cuomo should resign.
— Josh Dawsey (@jdawsey1) August 3, 2021
In other words, Cuomo will resign when hell freezes over.
Lets go farther:
Cuomo would have to be the dumbest Democrat politician in human history to resign right now.
The track record is clear: the party will circle the wagons, as long as he holds out as long as possible. https://t.co/sZmvlnMbSQ
— Pradheep J. Shanker (@Neoavatara) August 3, 2021
1. Dems will be outraged today!
2. Cuomo will deny everything.
3. Dems will say Cuomo must go!
4. Cuomo will refuse.
5. DEMS RESPONSE??????
6. CUOMO PROFITS. pic.twitter.com/YC6ThkVtfD— Pradheep J. Shanker (@Neoavatara) August 3, 2021
I mean…I could be wrong. But this is the playbook for every Democrat executive since Bill Clinton…so for the last three decades.
Why would I bet against a three decade long winning streak?
— Pradheep J. Shanker (@Neoavatara) August 3, 2021
You can draw a straight line from Bill Clinton to where we are now. 25 years later and we're still paying for that corrupt hillbilly's presidency.
— Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) August 3, 2021
lol he'll be re-elected, write another book and be back on CNN before the year is out.
— Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) August 3, 2021
That book will be called if I did it

That’s right. He’s not sorry about the sexual harassment stuff, and he’s sure as hell not sorry about condemning all those elderly people to their deaths.
Anything on the nursing home deaths, manipulating data, undercounting deaths & suppressing truth while pursuing a $5m book deal (reportedly while using state resources)? Or the special COVID treatment of family & connected allies? Or is this just about the sexual allegations?
— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) August 3, 2021
And about the 12,000 or so people that died as a direct result of his executive order to place covid patients in nursing homes? Can we address that one? https://t.co/Q29TJnWtUg
— Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) August 3, 2021
Maybe AG James will get around to it. You know, once Andrew Cuomo resigns.
