Andrew Cuomo's eldercide was worse
[NYPOST] Although Gov. Cuomo’s "sexual misconduct and egregious mishandling of COVID-19 are both heinous," it shouldn’t be "controversial to assert killing the elderly through incompetence" is more "depraved," writes Robert Schmad at the Washington Examiner. Yet the media are "flipping the moral weight of the two wrongs." New calls for Cuomo’s resignation after the state attorney general’s report barely mention his nursing-home scandals. Still, at least he is facing "some kind of reckoning."

FROM THE LEFT: CHRIS CUOMO MUST GO, TOO
New York AG Letitia James released "a bombshell report Tuesday detailing multiple instances of sexual harassment" by Gov. Cuomo, yet, observes MSNBC columnist Laura Bassett, James also notes that "CNN
...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for...
anchor Chris Cuomo, the governor’s brother, was part of a small team of advisers who helped him respond to the allegations." Chris even went "so far as to draft a statement" for Andrew in February. The governor "should resign immediately or be impeached," but his brother, too, "should resign from covering politics or be fired." After all, "it’s extremely inappropriate and unethical for a journalist to advise and craft the statements of a politician, regardless of family relation." The two men have both "amassed massive power and influence, while betraying public trust." Both "must go."

#5 A full, honest investigation of the nursing home scandal might reveal things that the Dems do not want revealed. The suspicion is that it's so bad they are willing to throw one of their stars under the bus so they can sweep the bigger scandal under the rug while nobody's looking.

#6 I'm thinking Cuomo better have damn good security if he continues with his refusal to take the fall. Biden might look like a doddering old fool but he and his handlers are not playing tiddlywinks.

#7 I recently read speculation that the Democratic Establishment is going after Governor Cuomo to keep him from running for president in 2024. Does that sound realistic?
