There’s Only One Reason Democrats Are Turning On Cuomo, And It Isn’t A Noble One

What's most striking is that de Blasio's call to 'revoke the governor's emergency powers' comes after nearly an entire year of Cuomo publicly wielding his power to destroy his own state.

<some snippets from the article>

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is calling for the state legislature to revoke Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s emergency powers, joining nine Democrats as well as the state’s Republicans in doing so. “The State Legislature,” his Sunday night statement reads, “must immediately revoke the governor’s emergency powers that overrule local control.” Great idea, mayor. But why now?

But what about spending months lying and blaming others for 15,000 deaths in vulnerable elderly care facilities? Was that not enough to immediately end emergency authorities when it was exposed and then admitted? While it’s perfectly natural for reasons to pile up over time, gaining significance in the mind as gathering evidence establishes a pattern of behavior, thousands of dead citizens should alone be reason enough for censure.

What’s most striking is that de Blasio’s call to “revoke the governor’s emergency powers” comes after nearly an entire year of Cuomo publicly wielding his power to destroy his own state, closing schools, banning businesses, shuttering churches, prosecuting religion, and allowing rioters to run roughshod over citizens and police. So after all that, the abuse of power that cannot — will not — be tolerated is sexual harassment having nothing to do with those emergency powers? Is that the line we’re drawing here? Would the crushing of New York be OK if not for this latest revelation?

Of course, de Blasio and friends think those extraconstitutional abuses of COVID power were toward a noble cause. Indeed, the mayor is guilty of the same abuses, even letting his long feud with the governor once again spill into national headlines last year as the two fought over turf and other minor aspects in their individual plans to fight COVID by destroying New York.

Corporate Media Gave Less Than A Minute To Cuomo’s Fatal Nursing Home Policy In 2020

Corporate media outlets devoted less than a minute of airtime to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s fatal nursing home policy that killed thousands in 2020, despite the fact that some outlets including The Federalist began to raise questions about the directive early in the pandemic.

At the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis, many leftist networks, late-night hosts, and Democratic journalists praised Cuomo for his “remarkable show of leadership” in his state and for writing an “absolutely fantastic” book about his response. CNN, MSNBC, ABC’s “The View,” CBS, and others were quick to fawn over Cuomo’s virus updates and call for masking and lockdowns in the name of keeping people safe and healthy.

While the New York Post and other outlets began to question the fatal March nursing home directive by Cuomo in April of 2020, ABC’s “World News Tonight,” the “CBS Evening News,” and “NBC Nightly News” featured conversations and coverage of the governor more than 400 times between March 1 and Dec. 31. According to the Media Research Center, only two of those stories, totaling 51 seconds of airtime, mentioned Cuomo’s deadly nursing home policy.

Now, as multiple sexual assault allegations have surfaced and Cuomo’s administration has admitted covering up thousands of COVID deaths as a result of his policies, corporate media outlets are trying to walk back their months of praise. CNN is just one of the many legacy media outlets that suddenly decided to virtue signal and claim it is pivoting its coverage of the Democrat.
