The Republicans are the minority in NY Assembly….
They would have 60 days to present their case to the whole New York State legislature…
The chances of this succeeding are close to zero….
State Assembly Republicans are moving to form an impeachment commission “to gather facts and evidence” surrounding Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s “handling and subsequent cover-up of the COVID-19 crisis in nursing homes” across New York, they announced Thursday.
The Assembly Republican Conference next week will introduce a bill to create a bipartisan panel tasked with “examining the state’s method of administration and conduct in all matters relating to nursing homes and long-term care facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Under the resolution, the committee would have a 60-day deadline to conduct its work and submit its findings and recommendations to the legislature on whether to impeach.
The resolution to form the committee would need to be passed by both houses of the Democrat-controlled legislature.
The move comes after The Post exclusively reported how Cuomo’s top aide Melissa DeRosa admitted on a conference call with lawmakers that the Democratic governor’s administration withheld the true death toll of nursing home residents for fear it would be “used against us” by federal prosecutors….

Time for NY Democrats to move on from the Cuomos.
I doubt any Republican in today’s Trump party can win statewide in the Empire State.

Cuomo is polling at 60% or so….
He IS a unforgiving mean spirited man….
The recall won’t go anywhere….
The piece shows the state Democratic Party leader has his back…
GOPer’s are the minority in both legislative body and to cross Cuomo is like Trump, except Cuomo has been around for a LONG Time…
His problem could be the US Atty…..
If NOT?
He’ll make it thru ….
BTW?
He’s in the process of opening the state back up as the infection rates steadily decline….
No one thinks he’s stupid….
