Gov. Andrew Cuomo Finally Resigns
« on: August 10, 2021, 02:17:01 PM »
...in 14 days.

It would appear that there was another issue in 2014 that might've been the tipping point, unrelated to groping or ass-grabbing.

Cuomo called the Obama White House, railing on about U.S. attorney Preet Bharara, who was investigating corruption in New York. Some legal experts call that an impeachable offense all by itself.

I thought Andrew Cuomo was not going to resign.

Cuomo May Still Face Impeachment to Keep Him From Running

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who resigned Tuesday in the aftermath of multiple sexual-harassment allegations, may still face impeachment if only to keep him from running for office again.

The state Assembly Judiciary Committee, which has been considering whether it had enough evidence to proceed with impeachment of the three-term Democrat, is scheduled to meet on Aug. 16 to discuss “what, if any, role there is anymore,” committee member David Weprin, a Democrat, said in an interview.

On Monday, committee Chairman Charles Lavine said an impeachment would be “moot” if Cuomo were to resign before their investigation drew to a close. “But, there would be the opportunity in the court of impeachment to prohibit him from ever occupying statewide office,” he had said.

Cuomo announced his resignation a day after committee members pledged to soon wrap up their five-month investigation of Cuomo. In addition to the harassment claims, lawmakers were considering whether the Cuomo administration covered up Covid-19 nursing-home deaths, provided relatives with virus testing before it was widely available, mishandled construction of the Mario Cuomo Bridge and misused public resources for a $5 million leadership book.

Andrew Cuomo may face impeachment even if he resigns.

Andrew Cuomo may face impeachment even if he resigns.

Don't hold your breath waiting for his impeachment. I think they're just gonna let him go, change the locks in the governor's office, and bring in the moving vans.

Yeah, may he now vanish into obscurity...  with maybe an ambush-vid every year, catching him doing something stupid and mundane.

That's all I ever wanted.

Realistic about him never being charged with crimes.  He's gone.  Now for Newsome.

New York ethics board revokes approval of Cuomo book deal

Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo may lose his $5.1 million book deal after a state ethics board on Tuesday revoked approval for him to publish the work.

In a 12-1 vote, the state's Joint Commission on Public Ethics revoked its previous approval of Cuomo's book, claiming that state government staffers and resources were improperly used in preparing it. Cuomo must now reapply for the board's approval.

According to The Hill, Cuomo published his book "American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the Covid-19 Pandemic," prior to his resignation amid allegations of sexual misconduct.

Cuomo's spokesperson Rich Azzopardi responded to JCOPE's decision to rescind its approval in a statement to local news station WABC, saying the board doesn't have that kind of authority.

Looks like Andrew Cuomo's book deal could be out.

There is some reason the Democrats are dead set on getting rid of Cuomo.
