Andrew Cuomo's campaign pays for sex-harass lawyer despite his claims
[NYPOST] Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo
...Dem dynastic governor of Noo Yawk, the son and heir of the late Mario Cuoma and formerly married to a Kennedy. Acclaimed for his leadership during the COVID epidemic, he managed the nation's highest corpse count while successfully hiding the returns and writing a book praising himself.

used campaign cash to pay nearly $285,000 in bills from the lawyer defending him against sexual harassment allegations, according to documents filed Friday — despite publicly claiming he wasn’t doing so last month.

"Andrew Cuomo for New York" had earlier paid Glavin’s firm, Glavin PLLC, $111,774 on May 3, according to the filing, which says the spending was for "professional services."

Cuomo hired Glavin as the sexual harassment scandal against him mounted, and she spoke in defense of him when the New York Times

During the June 2 news conference that followed the revelation Cuomo sold his 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...
memoir for $5.1 million, the three-term Democrat defended his decision to have taxpayers pay his legal bills in connection with separate probes into his handling of nursing homes amid the pandemic.
