New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday said “you’d have to be blind” to think calls to further calls to investigate the coronavirus deaths linked to state nursing homes amid the pandemic are “not political.”
placeholderCuomo, during a press conference Monday, said he “wouldn’t do an investigation” into the nursing home deaths during the coronavirus pandemic in the state of New York.
“I wouldn’t do an investigation whether or not it’s political, everybody can make that decision for themselves,” Cuomo said. “I think you’d have to be blind to realize it’s not political.”
He went on to say, “Just look at where it comes from and look at the sources and look at their political affiliations and look at who wrote the letter in Congress and look at what publications raise it and what media outward networks raise it.”

He added: “It’s kind of incredible.”
NEW YORK TIMES ACCUSED OF GOING SOFT ON CUOMO OVER NY NURSING HOME CONTROVERSY
Cuomo has been insisting that the thousands of nursing home deaths had nothing to do with his March 25 order that required nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients who were medically stable without testing them, claiming that the deaths were caused by infected staff members who spread the virus.
CUOMO TAKES HEAT OVER INTERNAL NURSING HOME REPORT
A report released last month backs up his claims, but experts have questioned the report’s methods.
The report, released by New York State, said that 80 percent of the 310 nursing homes in the state that took coronavirus patients already had cases before Cuomo issued his order.
Cuomo has blamed “dirty politics” for the accusations he has faced over his order, which he eventually rescinded on May 10. He said it was a “political conspiracy that the deaths in nursing homes were preventable.”
Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., who is a leader of a House subcommittee on the COVID crisis, said in a letter to Cuomo last month that “[b]lame-shifting, name-calling and half-baked data manipulations will not make the facts or the questions they raise go away.”
Cuomo spokesman Rich Azzopardi responded, saying: “We’re used to Republicans denying science but now they are screeching about time, space and dates on a calendar to distract from the federal government’s many, many, embarrassing failures. No one is buying it.”
Meanwhile, Cuomo on Monday urged the public to “look at the basic facts on where New York is versus other states.”
“You look at where New York is as a percentage of nursing home deaths,” he said. “It’s all the way at the bottom of the list of states.”
“So I don’t think anyone knows what’s political, what’s not political,” He continued. “Everyone can make their own decisions.”
Cuomo went on to note that experts could “sensibly” investigate the coronavirus deaths in nursing homes in the state, and said that “would not be political at all,” and would be “trusted” by Democrats, Republicans and independents.

Cuomo is fine with abortion any time for any reason including infanticide.
Those babies have NO CHOICE but death. Cuomo is fine with NO POLICE so murders, rapes, looting and property destruction can continue. Cuomo purposely let the elderly and others die and made money off Medicare when they did.
Cuomo’s biggest priority is NO POLICE and NO GUNS! Legal gun owners need to be DISARMED beacuse he suddenly “cares” about the children.

He must be investigated and prosecuted for the mass murder of the elderly. NY is in debt up to it’s eyeball, so he decided to get rid of the elderly and pocket their Social Security. You formulated it just perfect. Right on! Otherwise nobody in their right mind will be able to explain this move. Trump built the hospital in Central Park and sent the military medical ship with the thousands empty ICU. Why didn’t Cuomo and DeBlasio sent these suffering sick people there? Lock them up!

…except for one thing….he’s now begging the NY elite who fled the state to come back….even offering to “cook a dinner “for them. He’s one sick jerk.

Governor Cuomo, the merchant of death, rejects independent investigation to hide the blood on his hands. Both Cuomo and de Blasio are insidious human beings if they are human at all. It is a reality that both these men, using the term loosely, are Grim Reapers who sowed malevolence on its citizenry and law enforcement from which New York state and city reaped death, homicides, chaos, civil insurrection, and relentless violence.
This seditionist plot the Democrats conjured, serves one determination, to cause the downfall of the Republic in its entirety.

…I object to one thing….Neither Cuomo or De BLAH Blah are “human beings.” More along the lines of a Hitler hybrid.

Hi, ladywarrior, I thought I’d quantified the human being aspect by stating if they’re human at all. Indeed, Cuomo’s ridding the state of the infirm, the elderly, mirrors that of Hitler’s T-4 program. I hope you and yours are well, take care, ladywarrior.

ps Check your state for legislation that aims to protect certain private property rights by prohibiting certain entities from adopting measures that come from the United Nations. We have one in Alabama to prohibit Agenda 21 policies; it doesn’t have a lot of teeth, but it isn’t zero, either.

We know it’s political, Fredo’s dumber brother. You murdered thousands of citizens to panic the country, destroy the economy and blame it on President Trump. We also know that’s the real reason you won’t allow an investigation.

More tough talk from a Republican, “Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., who is a leader of a House subcommittee on
the COVID crisis, said in a letter to Cuomo last month that “[b]lame-shifting, name-calling and half-baked data manipulations will not make the facts or the questions they raise go away.” Wow, I am sure Cuomo is shaking. We all no he has no worries with the media that will bury this story to protect his agenda. How long have we been hearing tough talk Republican rhetoric on most everything corrupt from the Dems? NOTHING! NADA! ZIP! ZERO! When are we going to see a perp walk with a dem being led away in hand cuffs? NEVER! Hope I am wrong so badly but nothing going to happen to corrupt politicians. They protect each other.

I thought an independent investigation meant Cuomo can’t block it.

IF Coumo wasn’t guilty of offing more than 6,000 seniors (and possibly more than that) he’d welcome and investigation to clear him.
I think he did it to get rid of millions of seniors in his state collecting their pensions…..because they weren’t going to be able to pay them anyway.
