-
With much of the Cuomo scandals past the "new allegations" phase and now well into the "legal development" phase, the pace of news out of Cuomoland has slowed dramatically. Still, we're seeing references to Governor Cuomo's COVID nursing home deaths scandals pop up in interesting places, such as this aside in an opinion piece that mainly argues in favor of Eric Adams becoming the next mayor of New York City:
Scandals show Cuo’s good for ‘nothing’
“Cuomo’s Inner Circle Raised Money for Aide Who Was Convicted of Bribery.”
That’s a New York Times headline about how Gov. Cuomo’s associates and sister Madeline raised money to help Joseph Percoco, convicted of taking $300,000 in bribes from firms with business before state authorities.
Cuomo claimed he knew nothing, nothing about helping Percoco, whom he once called a brother. Earlier, he said he knew nothing, nothing about how his family got preferential COVID testing. Still earlier, he said he knew nothing, nothing about the state’s deadly order forcing nursing homes to accept COVID-positive patients.

Sgt. Schultz was portrayed by John Banner, who gave the catch phrase a life that has extended decades beyond his performance.
