Dear Andrew Cuomo: Go away. Just go away.

You may be nominally a Democrat, but your underlying nature is that of a perv and predator.  And your ego is almost as big as Cheeto's.

Andrew Cuomo files a complaint against Letitia James for her sexual harassment report

Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is asking the state's Supreme Court to investigate New York Attorney General Letitia James for publishing a report claiming he sexually assaulted multiple women during his tenure.

Cuomo claims James manipulated the investigation in order to pursue her own run for governor, failed to appoint independent legal travails.investigators to the case and omitted crucial evidence from her report released last August.

*You* complaining about someone else's behavior?  Really?

Maybe you hoped that it would distract from your ongoing legal travails.

Accuser sues former New York Gov. Cuomo for sexual harassment and discrimination

One of the first women to accuse former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment filed a federal lawsuit against him this week.

Charlotte Bennett, a one-time staffer for Cuomo, is suing him for sexual harassment and discrimination.

Bennett has previously spoken publicly about her time working for the former governor as a briefer between 2019 and 2020. In her suit filed Wednesday, Bennett claims that Cuomo made sexual comments about her appearance, gave her "humiliating and demeaning tasks" and asked her invasive and unwanted questions about her romantic and sexual relationships, as well as her history as a sexual assault survivor.

This may be the most craven example of your bad behavior, but at least you are consistent in your cravenness.

The Moreland Commission: What Happened?

New York, December 5, 2014—Advocates of government ethics reform cheered in 2013 when New York Governor Andrew Cuomo created the Commission to Investigate Public Corruption, popularly known as the Moreland Commission. Less than a year later, however, Cuomo abruptly shut down the commission, setting off an ongoing controversy.

Columbia Law School professors Richard Briffault and Tim Wu joined Moreland Commission special counsel Janos Marton Nov. 17 for a postmortem examining what happened and how best to clean up government in the future. Briffault served as a member of the commission, named for a 1907 law granting governors authority to investigate state bodies, while Wu made ethics reform a centerpiece of his recent campaign to become New York’s lieutenant governor.

[snip]

The commission issued around 300 subpoenas, which ran into stonewalling from legislators who many speculated were planning to wait out the commission’s projected 18 to 24 month life span. The New York Times later reported that Cuomo’s office had interfered with the commission’s work, prompting a federal investigation from U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara ’93.

Mr. Cuomo, unless you are volunteering to become Cheeto's cellmate, no one wants to hear from you (and since I don't believe that a prison cell has built that can take that much ego, that's probably not going to happen),

Dear NY Assembly: When Cuomo leaves office, suspend your impeachment investigation...

 ...but don't do so even one moment before then.

New York lawmakers suspend Cuomo impeachment investigation

New York state lawmakers will halt the impeachment investigation against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who resigned this week and will leave office on August 25, state Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie announced on Friday afternoon.

In a statement, Heastie said Cuomo's resignation effectively eliminated the central question of the probe -- "whether Governor Cuomo should remain in office" -- and that Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Lavine advised him, with the guidance of counsel, that the state constitution "does not authorize the legislature to impeach and remove an elected official who is no longer in office."

Cuomo and Navarette are out

Navarette's (alleged) bad behavior was a bit of a surprise, but Cuomo's?

The specifics were surprising, but the badness was not a surprise, not to anyone paying attention.

First, Navarette.

State Sen. Tony Navarrete resigns; denies child sex crime accusations

Arizona state Senator Tony Navarrete has announced his resignation from public office on Tuesday following accusations of sexual conduct with a child and molestation of a minor. 

Elected to office in 2016 and rumored as a potential candidate for state treasurer next year, Navarrete was considered a rising star in Democratic politics. But that quickly unraveled after his arrest Thursday night on numerous allegations of child sex abuse that date back to 2017. Hours after issuing his resignation, Navarrete released a statement denying the allegations against him:

The AZ Lege's website has already been updated to reflect his resignation -

Cuomo's exit has been coming for a long time.

First up, the immediate issue of the sexual harassment allegations.

Andrew Cuomo's downfall sends a striking message

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is stepping down from office. The politician who was willing to fight every scandal that plagued his tenure finally met a challenge he couldn't outmaneuver. After the nation's most prominent Democrats -- from President Joe Biden to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer -- called on him to leave his post in the wake of New York Attorney General Letitia James' devastating report into allegations of sexual harassment, Cuomo finally conceded.

While Cuomo called the investigation into his alleged misconduct "politically motivated" and maintained his innocence, he also said that a monthlong struggle to remain in office would harm New York State, that he would "never want to be unhelpful in any way," and agreed to leave his post in 14 days.

The women who he harassed seem to have opinions of him that are different than his opinion of himself.

Women who accused Gov. Cuomo of sexual harassment speak out after resignation

In the wake of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's resignation, several of the women who accused him of sexual misconduct are speaking out.

Lindsey Boylan — whose February account of alleged sexual harassment by Cuomo ignited new calls for the governor to resign — tweeted, "From the beginning, I simply asked that the Governor stop his abusive behavior."

"It became abundantly clear he was unable to do that, instead attacking and blaming victims until the end. It is a tragedy that so many stood by and watched these abuses happen," Boylan wrote.

Of course, Cuomo has a long history of bad behavior.

New York Governor Cuomo's office intervened in corruption probe: NY Times

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s office meddled with a commission he created to root out corruption in state politics, pushing back whenever it focused on groups tied to Cuomo, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.

The commission that Cuomo established in July 2013 to investigate violations of campaign finance laws and other matters was hobbled almost from the start by demands from the governor’s office, despite a public promise of independence, the Times said.

Within a year, it was disbanded by Cuomo, who had initially indicated it would operate for about 18 months.

Of course2, one of the targets of Cuomo's ire wonders if Cuomo may be up to something with his delay in leaving office.

Former US Attorney Preet Bharara wonders if 'mischief' afoot in Andrew Cuomo waiting 14 days to resign

A former federal prosecutor said he was surprised New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who faces allegations of sexual harassment, intends to wait two weeks to resign and hopes there is nothing "nefarious" in the works.

Preet Bharara, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York from 2009-2017, said he sees no reason why Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul shouldn't take over almost immediately.

One of the differences between Republicans and Democrats is that while Republicans are gleefully pointing fingers right now, they would excuse the same behaviors from a Republican.

Witness their attitude toward Trump.

Democrats are horrified by this behavior, no matter the partisan affiliation of the person (s) engaging in it and will call it out, no matter what.
