Lawmakers Commit to Leisurely, Lengthy Impeachment Investigation of Andrew Cuomo
[BREITBART] The New York State Assembly’s judiciary committee announced on Tuesday that its investigation of Governor Andrew Sonny Cuomo’s behavior could take "months."The New York State Assembly Judiciary Committee Chair, Long Island Democrat Charles Lavine, said its investigation of embattled New York Governor Andrew Cuomo could take "months, rather than weeks" to "assess whether there’s evidence that the governor has engaged in conduct that justifies articles of impeachment."

"Given the breadth and seriousness of the issues under investigation, we expect that the timing will be in terms of months rather than weeks," Lavine explained during an audio broadcast of a judiciary committee meeting streamed Tuesday.

The committee’s investigation was authorized on March 11. "The reports of accusations concerning the governor are serious," New York Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie said at the time. "The committee will have the authority to interview witnesses, subpoena documents and evaluate evidence, as is allowed by the New York State Constitution."

Judiciary committee attorney Greg Andres acknowledged that the public may not get their answers before the results of New York State Attorney General Letitia James’ misconduct investigation into allegations of sexual harassment. "I think it’s more of a recognition that there’s a parallel process happening.," he said. "We don’t have control over that process, when that report would come out or not. And we won’t necessarily gear our investigation solely on the timing of that report. I think we want to be aware of it, to the extent possible."

Cuomo is facing allegations of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior toward women and has been accused of attempting to inhibit the investigation led by New York State Attorney General Letitia James. Yet even that issue may be dwarfed by the governor’s alleged mishandling and subsequent cover-up of nursing homes deaths during the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic.

#2 Like Gary Hart, better to get canceled for the girl than the late night phone call to Grenada. The girl is a harmless foible everybody can understand, the call, not so much.
