A New York nursing home administrator has reportedly admitted that he and other administrators in the state were “petrified” when Gov. Andrew Cuomo ordered coronavirus patients to be funneled into their facilities last spring.In an exclusive interview with Fox News reportedly set to air Thursday, administrator Michael Kraus said that “many facilities” expressed concern and were “petrified” of what might happen but were even “more petrified of the Department of Health.” He apparently felt the same, because he only tried raising the issue once, but to no avail.“Once it was shot down, I never spoke [about it] again,” he said in the segment set to air on “America Reports” Thursday.

Ah! But the Greater New York Hospital Association which wanted these 'low paying' patients out had given over a million dollars to Sonny's election fund. Did you know that?

There had to be a lot more liberal Democrat politicians and operatives involved in the New York rest home affair where people infected with the very contagious CIVID-19 virus were placed in nursing homes next to elderly and frail people who then caught the virus and died. There is no way that the Governor could have accomplished all that by himself. The Governor’s sexual assault and harassment against liberal Democrat women who were employed by the Governor and in Democrat groups that operated near him were well known in Democrat political circles for a long time. So why are the Democrats now trying to get rid of the Governor now? Could it be to alleviate the need for a nursing home scandal investigation that could very well implicate a lot of powerful New York Democrats?

I doubt WE will ever hear the complete story...the issue became a political tool and nothing good can come from DC managing the narrative...it is enough WE know that a mass extermination happened.. our own holocaust right here in the good ole USA ... a death sentence given to all those poor old folks... and Cuomo was the German Goebel deciding who would live and who would die... President Trump sent the hospital ship to New York...why didn't Cuomo use that space to save these poor folks...

Listening to local ABC N.Y. radio right now and heard another bit of Cuomo's "flirtatiousness": "if I were a dog I would mount you" to one of his female employees. What a charmer. But this IS a diversion, horrendous as it is, because if focus goes to the nursing home scandal, you have to look at N.J., Pa., Michigan etc. where the same exact thing happened.

You ... sir ... are a coward of the first water! You should be ashamed of yourself. No one was asking you to be a Kamikaze pilot against Randy Andy Cuomo but you collapsed like a cheap lawn chair. The LEAST you could have done was separated the COVID people from the non-COVID people. Set up a cordoned off wing or an isolated and closed floor. Even something small would have better than doing absolutely nothing. If the patients had body lice instead of a deadly virus you would have taken stronger precautions. People like you make me sick.

FTA The thing about political bully boys like Cuomo is they seem invincible for their whole career, and then one day they screw up, and everyone who was afraid of them suddenly isn't afraid of them anymore, and everyone turns on them, and it all falls apart fast. Cuomo: Tonto look at all the dam Indians !!! What are we going to do ??? Tonto: What you mean we , Guido ???

The nursing homes did nothing to stop the flow of those infected with CV being returned to the homes. These nursing homes did not object so don't tell me they were startled and appalled with the order. All they had to do was call a news agency and tell them the problem and put the order in the spotlight. They didn't take any action so they are as guilty as Cuomo.

When it comes to gun violence — and specifically, mass shootings — we have become used to a certain pattern of behavior from the other side of the political aisle.For those on the Left, each mass shooting event is but further evidence of a deep-rooted problem within American society. These terrible occurrences are condemned not as individual instances, but as part of a greater problem. A problem which simply must be solved, at any cost. Democrats rush to capitalize on this understandable desire for action by immediately promising to act. The problem, however, is that while not all actions are equal or effective, every action promoted by the Democrats

The United States has always presented a roadblock to the ambitions of globalist oligarchs through its one-two punch of a Constitution that clearly constrains the powers of government while empowering the people and an American culture that prides itself on representing the last, best hope for freedom on the planet. So how do you "reset" America so that it becomes just another socialist country controlled by an elite few? You undermine America's freedoms by undermining her foundations. You go to war with the American people."White supremacy" is the socialists' "yellowcake uranium." It's really that simple.

Harvard University experts will test the system by sending a large balloon 12 miles above the Swedish town of Kiruna and have it drop 2kg of chalk dust into the stratosphere. The aim of the estimated $3 million mission, backed by billionaire Bill Gates, is to have the chalk deflect a portion of the sun's radiation, stop it from hitting the surface, and cool the planet.
