Some aides told The Journal they saw the conversations as attempts to intimidate them. One said a caller encouraged them to give information that could discredit Boylan.

“Cuomo's aides were planning how exactly to discredit Lindsey Boylan starting from the moment that she tweeted,” Ronan Farrow, who spoke to Boylan for The New Yorker,The New Yorker report alleged Cuomo’s senior aide Melissa DeRosa, Azzopardi and the governor's former secretary, Steven M. Cohen, were part of the effort to"squash" her tweets.

Farrow said Boylan's account shows “a pattern of the governor weaponizing any available information through his aides and through intermediaries in New York politics and getting those claims into the press.”

I just hope there will be a lawful investigation on this case against Gov Cuomo. I have a weird feeling why these women just came out in the open after many years of being QUIET. Is there 'SOMEONE' PUSHING THEM TO FILE THIS CASE

He has to go. Force him out& be done w/ it. The longer he’s there, the more he hurts the Dems bc he gives Repubs a perfect pre-fabricated attack to target. Everything else they hit us on is wrong, usually totally false,but this would be a Dem scandal Repubs were dying for.

Fair point. But one could also conclude that some “media” is out there pushing to discredit Cuomo under the disguise of reporting.

cbcDougDirks It's strange that these accusations just happened to appear after Trump left office. Given the animosity between the 2 it wouldn't surprise me to find out this is some kind of retribution. I'm reserving judgement until the investigations are complete.

Que lo ivestigen esto parece una trampa

I want the truth before he goes anywhere. I still smell a rat connected to Trump and his friends somehow so he can get out of his legal battles and if that is true. I have no time for it

Wait for the facts
