- New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s office cleared the way on Sunday for an independent attorney with subpoena powers to investigate allegations against him of sexual misconduct.

Cuomo, one of the nation’s most well-known Democratic politicians whose popularity soared during the early months of the pandemic, has been accused by two former aides of sexual misconduct, sparking criticism from fellow Democrats that ranged from calls for his resignation to appeals for an independent investigation into his behavior.

Cuomo said he is often jocular around the office and in public, citing his frequent press conferences that included plenty of banter with members of the media. There were also demands for an independent probe from several other Democrats. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told CNN’s State of the Union that President Joe Biden supported such an investigation. Others, including New York State Senator Alessandra Biaggi and New York City Councilman Carlos Menchaca, went further, echoing Republican calls for Cuomo to resign.

Cuomo has denied wrongdoing in both cases. Reuters could not independently verify the women’s accounts. Attempts to reach both women have been unsuccessful.

Not surprised at all in this country because the core values seem to be money, power and sex as too many scandals everywhere, government officials, politicians, corporate executives, athletes, teachers, etc. Moral and integrity seems to not important any more. It must change...

What a laugher the same AG Cuomo the clown appointed LMFAO

Makes me question whether this is just a ruse to deflect his complicity in the nursing home death rates he created.

Killer Sick Cuomo. Fredo is hiding!

He pissed off someone powerful and now you’ll report on it because you’re told to. You could have done this months ago but you were instructed not to.

This is shaping up to be the Democratic version of Trump/Barr. The State AG of New York should hire a bug time law firm outside the Northeast where the Cuomo crime family has fewer tentacles...
