New York Assemblyman Ron Kim, who lost an uncle to a likely case of Covid-19 in a nursing home, went public yesterday and accused the governor of threatening his career if he didn’t back off his criticism:
“Gov. Cuomo called me directly on Thursday to threaten my career if I did not cover up for Melissa [DeRosa] and what she said.” https://t.co/hfxb0AmbTx

This from CNN:
Gov. Cuomo called me directly on Thursday to threaten my career if I did not cover up for Melissa [DeRosa] and what she said. He tried to pressure me to issue a statement, and it was a very traumatizing experience,” Kim said. Cuomo proceeded to tell the assemblyman that “we’re in this business together and we don’t cross certain lines and he said I hadn’t seen his wrath and that he can destroy me,” according to Kim.
Kim followed up on “Morning Joe” saying Cuomo “berated” him for 10 minutes:
NY Assemblyman Ron Kim says on @Morning_Joe that when Gov. Cuomo called him he was with his family. “For 10 minutes, he berated me, he yelled at me, he told me that my career would be over…”

This made Janice Dean “sick to [her] stomach”:
I’ve never been more sick to my stomach. I knew @NYGovCuomo was a bully. Now I know he’s truly an awful human being.

This confirms my reporting in December:
“The Cuomo administration had not been cooperative with prosecutors, especially in the early stages of the probe, and for months had not produced documents and other data the Justice Department had requested.” https://t.co/GssGMEYWdN

Someone recently told me that @NYGovCuomo is referred to in Albany as the “Terminator” meaning he can’t be destroyed. Well, I think he’s on his way to “Hasta la vista, baby…”

Meghan McCain also called for Gov. Cuomo’s Resignation: He’s “Completely and Utterly Ghoulish”
CUOMO ADMITS “MISTAKE” IN NURSING HOME DEATHS: Gov. Andrew Cuomo was praised for the way he led New York in the early days of the pandemic, but he’s now defending himself against allegations he tried to cover up COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes—@Sunny and @MeghanMcCain weigh in. pic.twitter.com/5Vyy3qvUU7

McCain then called for Cuomo to “step down,” as no one deserves to die “alone in a nursing home,” pandemic or not. “I think about the way my father died, surrounding by family and love, outside in Sedona, surrounded by hawks and animals, with true dignity,” she concluded. “And then the way it could’ve gone, had he not been famous or, god forbid, died from COVID under Andrew Cuomo’s leadership.”
