New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) blasted “bullying” Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) after a lawmaker said the governor threatened him for criticizing his handling of the nursing home scandal.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) top aide privately told Democratic state lawmakers that they withheld the state’s total count data of the nursing home death toll of COVID-19, out of fear that the true numbers would “be used against us” in a possible investigation by the Trump Justice Department, according to the New York Post latest bombshell report.
In his first public remarks since a scathing report found that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) administration undercounted nursing home deaths by 4,000, the governor on Friday said it didn’t matter how a COVID death was counted in a nursing home or hospital as he sort to continue the blame game on the Trump Administration for the entire investigation.
