| From 2018: The Buffalo Billion Trial Exposes Cuomo's Corruption |
| 2020-03-26 |
| When you hear Cuomo complaining about the lack of ventilators, face masks, and othe COVID equipment, just think about how much medical equipment New York could have bought with the, uh, postage and handling from the "Buffalo Billion". Bottom line: Andrew Cuomo set out to spend taxpayer billions in the name of economic development, outside the normal controls on state spending. Many of the contracts then went to enrich his donors in familiar "pay to play" fashion ‐ and at least two of his closest associates took the opportunity to line their own pockets. And when the feds moved in with indictments, Cuomo promised reforms that he then never took and stood in the way of other efforts to make sure it didn’t happen again. |

| #1 The states are supposed to be prepared. The fed is supposed to support. New York did not prepare, now he is blaming the Fed. Just wrong. |
