On Tuesday, New York Attorney General Letitia James released a report indicating that New York governor Andrew Cuomo had, in fact, sexually harassed multiple women and retaliated against at least one person who came forward. Cuomo immediately went into damage control mode, releasing a bizarre statement video showing pictures of him hugging and kissing all sorts of people, as if that makes it any better. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what needs to happen now.

Yesterday, the New York attorney general's office released a report showing that they believe New York governor Andrew Cuomo did in fact, sexually harass multiple women. He broke federal law and state law by doing this. And of course broke the law by retaliating against at least one of these individuals. Shortly after this was announced, Andrew Cuomo released a video defending himself by essentially trying to tell us that, hey, he's just a gropey guy and he never meant any harm by it and oh, by the way, he does it to literally everyone he comes in contact with. Take a look at just some of the video that Andrew Cuomo had put out. This is ridiculous. Here it is.

So you can't be a harasser if you harass everyone, is, is that really the argument that you want to go with their Cuomo? Because I don't think that's the stellar defense that you think it is. Um, in fact it really just makes you come across as even more of a creep. And then he tried to blame it of course on, hey, I'm an Italian-American, this is what we do. You're really just trying to make an entire ethnicity look bad with that at that point. That, that is an idiotic argument here, but that's what Cuomo decided to go with. And here's the thing, folks, those videos were put together in rather short time. I mean, again, this came out not long after the, you know, final report from the New York attorney general's office came out. So this tells me that they had already put this together. They were preparing for this. You don't just randomly have all of those pictures on hand. Somebody spent a hell of a lot of time putting that together, finding all these photos of Cuomo, kissing and awkwardly touching pretty much every individual as he admits there, he comes in contact with, even people on the street he says. What about the retaliation though? Because, cause they, they also did say you broke the law with that.

So, you know, you didn't really address that fact. Point is, Cuomo should have been forced to resign months ago. But Democrats, as usual wanted to drag their feet, let it all play out. Trust the process. And here we are with basically confirmation from Letitia James' office saying yep. Based on what we've done with this investigation that has been going on for months, we can confirm these things. Cuomo needs to step down immediately. Instead of putting out a defense for his behavior, that video should have been his resignation to the country telling us that he's sorry, he won't do it anymore and we'll never hear from him again. That's what should have happened in that instance. But it didn't. He is going to ride this thing out because like so many other politicians that get embroiled in scandals days, he still legitimately believes he can wait this out. That is what he is thinking, folks. We have to put the pressure on him to resign. We have to let him know that he doesn't have a supporter left in this country. And if he decides to stay those New York Democrats need to let him know we're gonna impeach and remove you and bar you from holding public office here in the future. Your career is over, kiss it goodbye like you've apparently kissed everything else in this country.
