Facing massive political pressure for his sexual improprieties, sexual harassment allegations, abuses of power and generally creepy conduct in office; in other words – he’s a Democrat; today New York Governor Andrew announced his resignation.
NEW YORK (AP) — Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced his resignation Tuesday over a barrage of sexual harassment allegations in a fall from grace a year after he was widely hailed nationally for his detailed daily briefings and leadership during some of the darkest days of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a televised address, the 63-year-old Democrat emphatically denied intentionally showing any disrespect toward women but said that fighting back against what he called the “politically motivated” attack on him would subject the state to months of turmoil, and “I cannot be the cause of that.” “The best way I can help now is if I step aside and let government get back to governing,” Cuomo said.
The creepy idol for the leftist political media continued to proclaim his innocence and called the charges of his sexual misconduct “a distraction” keeping him from the duties of his office. However, a previous state investigation showed Cuomo consistently forced kisses upon his female staff; groped their breasts and buttocks and repeatedly touched them inappropriately.
When complaints were made against him, the governors office retaliated and the investigators said Cuomo created a work environment “rife with fear and intimidation.”
Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul, a 62-year-old fellow Democrat and ideological traveler with support from the progressive NY tribe of socialists, will become the state’s 57th governor and the first woman to hold the job.
Bet Hillary’s Really. Jealous. of the (former) Lt. Gov.
The Lindell presentation offered the position that registration rolls were maxxed out based on the 2010 census.
Remember the cash from the widow of Moscow’s mayor, Yelena Baturina, to Hunters Rosemont Seneca?
The money was promptly funneled to BAK USA, a tablet manufacturer that was located in Buffalo, NY.
BAK made tables for ES&S voter roll systems.
Hmmm….
Part of the Buffalo Billion$$$

Oh look, Lt. Governor Hochul knows all about it:
https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/governor-cuomo-announces-completion-expansion-bak-usa-western-ny
…
“Bak USA’s expanded headquarters is another sign that Buffalo is embracing the 21st century economy as a hub for innovation and technology,” said Lieutenant Governor Hochul. “It also stands as an example of Governor Cuomo’s overall economic strategy, which is to create jobs by removing barriers for start-ups and leverage new investment through public-private partnerships. As someone who has visited Bak USA and seen first-hand all they have to offer, I am grateful for their commitment to Western New York and excited that they have reached this important milestone.”…
Who’s in line after the Lt.Governor?
Kathy Hochul is cut from the same cloth as Big Bird. Another Marxist lunatic. Except she’s now controlling the whole state, not just The Rotten Apple.
NY has gone from disastrous to apocalyptic. Exactly what one would expect.
They obviously wanted him gone, for reasons other than groping staff. The currently installed president gropes children and they don’t care about that, obviously, so this guy could have gone on forever if not for these other unknown transgressions.
They wanted him gone, and when he refused to leave, they broke out the groping charges. It’s likely that NSA intercepts of his staff and others and their complaints about him were used to fabricate the means to force him out. He held out for the State AG’s public clearance on any charges, then resigned.
I don’t like the guy, but he’s gone for reasons other than what is being publicly stated. We don’t know exactly what those are.
Agreed, I would look closely at the part The Working Families Party played in his departure… This Lefty party is powerful in NY State and owns NYC… It will be interesting who their Governor candidate will be next cycle, Cynthia Nixon again, or some other LGTBQ Marxist. But to your point, there is more then meets the eye here…
Spot on regarding the WFP.
Exactly! That is why New Yorkers across the state better start waking up! Cynthia Nixon? Give me a break!
watch Ag Letitia James black, female and approved by the left.
And aligned closely with WFP…
That’s exactly what I was thinking. He faithfully carried the Left’s water, crushed New York with Covid-19 restrictions, dutifully executed the nursing home residents, but they’re obviously done with him now. The Left has no loyalty whatsoever; everyone is a tool them, to be discarded when no longer needed.
Yes, but this couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.
Commies gotta commie. Socialism is now too “moderate” for the ProgreSSive Left aka democRat Bolsheviks.
Maybe they want him in the Whitehouse. I’m only half joking.
I have often wondered what he actually did to piss them off. Groping staff is sadly normal for powerful men in office. I know Mr. Pence gets a lot of hate here, some for very good reason, but one has to admit he is the smartest man in the room. Sexual harassment, real or imagined, is to modern politicians like tax crimes were to organized crime in days passed. What did he do that actually pissed them off? Surely not killing seniors, the hard left always supports killing people. Who did he rip off? Whose ass didn’t he kiss? Sadly we’ll never know the real reason for his dismissal. Now he is doomed to the horrible fate of being a fabulously wealthy guy for the rest of his days! I’m sure he’ll cry over his (literally) hand-squeezed orange juice and egg-white omelette every morning that he was never president while he basks in the glow of being fabulously wealthy for the rest of his life.
Its a “progressive” thing! Install as many of them as Governors around the country suddenly you have a more in your face transformation taking place then mere optics of a presidential election. Local and state levels is just as important in the culture wars. Like you said, he may not be liked for obvious reasons, but his resignation was definitely about other motivating factors from the power brokers not aligned with the Democratic party.
Sometimes the simplest answer is the best one. The Left/Marxist/ Commie Dems wanted him out so that he could be replaced with one of their own.
I heard someone say that 5 years from now we will be begging to get Killer Cuomo back.
Sick as that sounds, it’s probably true.
Clay Travis joked on Tucker last night that it is entirely possible that Schumer will be replaced by AOC and Pelosi by Cory Bush!
Yeah it’s hilarious and all, but clearly just a Left on Left power struggle. And sure I love seeing Nipples fall from winning Grammy’s for fake spoken word books about a COVID response that utterly killed his state and the elderly to becoming a jobless bum BUT with the Left only the worst subhuman wins so something worse will come of it.
As SD says, they’re all Communist sexual predators so them outing him with the likes of Clinton and digit rapist Bribed-en as leaders of the party is just them deciding they want him gone for some awful reason.
Prosobiec’s theory is he and Newsome are both being outed because they were in the way of Kamel 2024
I mean in what way? They have to rig an election for her regardless of who is involved so I don’t quite get that.
But yeah, even the completely braindead libs (one in particular I know) see that it was very overhyped and had some ulterious motive behind the push.
I think he is a MeToo nightmare but all Dems are. It’s a party of frustrated beta soys looking for power to get unearned wierdo sex
Now take his corrupt father’s name off the Tappan Zee Bridge ?
Please
Wish I still had a boat on the Hudson. Would head up to the bridge with several cans of red spray paint.
New York has the government it deserves.
Maybe not. Maybe NY has the government that got installed by cheating democrats?
EXACTLY! Please don’t paint all of us with the same brush. There are millions of loyal supporters of our President Trump in NY state.
Our votes have been stolen that’s all.
No we all do. Or. I sure as heck didn’t vote for Cuomo or this lt gov now soon to be gov. All
Lefties and all corrupt to the core.
No we all do not
The purpose of the AG announcing “no criminal charges” was to ensure he could resign knowing he would face no criminal penalties. In essence, the Government Party paved the road for him.
He should have been arrested immediately.
But Cuomo was supposed to be our next President!!
So was Avenatti.
So was Hillary… so was Biden!
It’s not 2024 yet, they’ve still got time to rehabilitate him and make voters forget he’s an animal
Between jabs and masks and lockdowns, many Democrats won’t even care by then…making their vote that much easier to steal via the mail
Forget resignation, what about prosecution for him and his staff, what about Fredo’s termination at CNN, what about accountability for all the media who have enabled him and last, get his damn name off the Tappan Zee immediately… I would also look closer at the real reason for his removal, since when has predatory behavior been an issue for the Democrats in the past…
If only we had a Justice dept.
They do, it’s just hostile to you.
Bridge to far.
The biggest factor for me was the unnecessary deaths of thousands of senior citizens, but MSM say nothing about it. Maybe Wolfe and Whitmire are protected class
ANOTHER USEFUL IDIOT BITES THE DUST.
Is he going because of a “scandal he would never recover from”, or is this just a convenient excuse to bail out now in preparation for a bigger part in the democrat’s plans at the federal level. Sweep it all under the rug now so there is time for the dust to settle before the dems have no choice but to deal with Biden’s cognitive decline? This is a good time to remember what Sundance reminds us of from time to time, that everything the dems do is by design. They are, if nothing else, organized when it comes to planning their future intents.
The Communists are merely consolidating their power. Isn’t this what Sundance is saying?
He reminds us from time to time that nothing happens by coincidence in the dem party. Every action they take is the result of a deliberate act that may, or may not seem apparent to the rest of us at the time. Cuomo’s resignation was thought out in advance, and it included people outside of the governor’s immediate sphere of influence in making the decision on how to handle the governor’s latest round of negative publicity.
They didn’t want Killer Cuomo as a replacement for the drooling idiot currently occupying the WH.
Interesting how this exactly mirrors what can happen to old Joe Biden with his own improprieties and him having a female successor.
Yet, the idiot called for Cuomo’s resignation. Lol
Andrew is a particularly vindictive and vain man. If they try to erase him his only vengeance will be to uncover where the bodies are buried and make no mistake Andrew knows where they are and who put them there. He has no power anymore and that may be his only recourse to save what he believes is a great legacy. Please Letitia, overplay your hand!
Letitia has her own backers. Who are they?
And who is Cathy Hochul?
Buffalo native, SU grad like Biden, at SU at an interesting time.
When faculty had ETH leaders…Urban designers of urban renewal projects everywhere. Formerly at Cornell under the see eye eh? dean.
ETH…same place Klaus Schwab got his degree.
“I did not have sexual relations with….” Oops, wrong idiot 🙂
How many times did he say “government?” We the People are the government.., not some body that governs.
Cuomo is just the first of the Wrongdoers about to go down. There will be other nefarious begin to unravel as we go along day by day.
From your mouth to Gods ear.
Cuomo carried their water and they let him drown in it. Guess he learned he isn’t such a big player after all.
I want to see Fredo interview him post resignation. No doubt a family weekend in the Hamptons is in order.
He doesnt own a home! LOL
Fredo owns a home in the Hamptons, don’t know about Guido.
The unraveling is beginning. The tremendous loss of credibility in the media is how it begins. Every tyranny ends historically with the media going down first.
I’m gonna enjoy the next 6 months.
Don’t know if you watched Mike Lindell’s symposium today, but he mentioned at least 20 times how the FAKE NEWS is the enemy of the people. He made Trump look like a choir boy.
So “Me too” (at least in NY) is officially more offensive than the killing of all of the elderly in the nursing homes.

Rofl, that didn’t age well.
About as well as CNN and others hyping Michael Avenatti as a promising presidential candidate.
Yep. Remember it well 😉
CNN, Mainstream Media’s Worshipping of Michael Avenatti
254 — That’s how many times Michael Avenatti, the celebrity lawyer who represented porn star Stormy Daniels, was featured on major TV networks in one year, according to Newsbusters.

Caution! Tina drops f-bomb (so what else is new) 😉
Love it, lol.
Obama clearing the decks of potential rivals. What Cuomo did is typical for a Democrat, and none of this is new or previously unknown. But Team Obama can’t allow any potential 2024 rivals to remain standing.
At first I thought “Dare one hope The Dike is spouting water?”
Then I read this piece on Revolver:
Leon Black’s mistress spills the beans about Epstein relationship…
And realized, Naw, the AristoPervs have it locked down.
Just like in 18th Century France, Just like 19th Century Russia they rape, pillage, abuse, terrorize as they please.
They continued till they were killed.
Seems unlikely we will rise to that solution.
Sad. Our forefathers were made of stronger stuff.
We lack the will to defend our young people from a deadly injections, and our Children from choking gags!
Pathetic.

Ninth gov of NYS to resign.
Won’t be the last. This is Soviet-style politics
Haven’t read all the comments yet, but when do they start addressing the thousands and thousands of elderly he stuffed away in contaminated nursing homes to wither and die?
THAT is more important to me than groping other Democrat women…they ALL do it and the women LIKE it
Or is this the “tradeoff”?
How about signing the abortion up to birth bill??
Obama bday party. A perfect setting for an undocumented deal to be finalized between a Cuomo rep and Obama. Resign now and don’t reveal that you locked down ny state to hurt trumps re election chances, in exchange for 50 million crypto currency or some hunter art.
Click on the tweet for the full thread of Glenn’s tweets.
The mayors of the major cities don’t pay any attention to the fact that the lifeblood of their cities are the people that come their cities to work. Beyond incomprehensible.
So I’m thinking soon we’ll have two Cuomo on CNN but not to fear. The women working there aren’t worth molesting, not even Don Lemon,
ROTFL
So the rapist mass murderer gave two weeks’ notice?
Lolz
Looks like brother Chris might be next. Not sure which brother I despise the most, both are slime.
https://nypost.com/2021/08/10/now-chris-cuomo-must-go-too/
That would be a good thing. Frodo says family first, job second. Both will be gone soon.
Just checking. If Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul is the first woman to hold the job, is she a woman or a trans-woman? Because, I’m told, trans-women are women.
I hope a reporter asks this question.
Gregg Kelly at NewsMax doing an interesting breakdown of the Cumo “harassment “ charges.
What happened to “when I want you to touch me I’ll let you know.” smh!
Worked perfectly when I’ve used it.
Tony Navarrete has resigned from the Arizona State Senate after being arrested on charges related to sexual contact with a minor.
I’ve seen a rumor that Kathy Hochul is Nancy Pelosi’s stepsister. Cannot confirm or deny it, but one youtube video saying it was taken down, so maybe that’s a clue.
I want to re-watch his resignation speech in slow motion so I can really relish it some more!
(not advised)… try overlaying the sound of the speech,
with the current vp (laughing in the background)….?
fwiw
I do not know
” in other words – he’s a Democrat.” ????
Meanwhile, Biden, an actual rapist, gets a total pass.
Under CDC, he can’t get served eviction papers.
First we had Creepy Porn Lawyer. Now we have Creepy Porn Governor.

Unhappy Ending: Wisconsin Democrat Ron Kind Announces Retirement
Scandal-ridden Wisconsin Democrat Rep. Ron Kind announced his retirement on Tuesday after staying silent for months on a seedy massage parlor that advertises on illicit sites and from which he accepted tens of thousands of dollars in rent.
ttps://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/08/10/unhappy-ending-wisconsin-democrat-ron-kind-announces-retirement/
Yeah, a distraction alright… perhaps from mounting evidence supporting claims against him that he intentionally murdered the elderly in nursing homes across “his” state with his reckless, fraudulent, and criminal COVID (+flu) response policy? Who knows?
Team Obama 1, Team Clinton 0
It is my opinion that the Marxist left is going after the old greedy and corrupt democrats. Joe Biden is Kamala’s pathway to the Oval Office. Pelosi and Schumer next.
“subject the state to months of turmoil, and “I cannot be the cause of that.””
So, political turmoil is bad for Democrats, but killing thousands with their policies is OK?
Another Emmy award!
Resign? No way, he should stand trial and let the truth come out.
Even though what’s next will obviously be worse as the Leftist monster behind this ousting emerges from the shadows, I still love the joy posts of the Conservatives getting a well deserved happy news moment.
It’s funny
And you have to wonder if it’s also a way for a Left on Left jab at CNN too since this is a twofer. You damage CNN as well getting Nipples. So the other news stations maybe pushed it to get the last bit of CNN’s fleeing audience
Still, the new old saying “when my enemy gets my enemy that day the news is my friend”
And in summary: LOLOLOLOLOLOL Bah bye
Tucker Carlson had a report on cutthroat New York politics and why Cuomo was really ousted
Tucker Carlson said on his show that Cuomo’s resignation had a lot to do with the crazy marxist New York state Attorney General Letitia James who wants to be Governor herself. She pressured Cuomo to resign to clear the way for her own run for Governor. Watch for Lititia James to declare her candidacy.
