A series of scandals, including allegations that his administration suppressed the number of deaths from COVID-19 in nursing homes and that he fondled, kissed or was otherwise sexually inappropriate with current and former aides, have backed Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.) into a corner over the past month, and today the torrent of bad press got even worse. 

New York Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie (D) gave approval to lawmakers on the Judiciary committee to begin an investigation that could end in impeachment. 

A series of Republicans and Democrats in Albany have been pressuring the governor to resign, but he has said doing so would be "undemocratic."

As always, Republicans only supporting impeachment against another politician when that politician has a after his name. Trump has done way worse and wasn't touched with a ten feet poll by way more people than her wife, including these same politicians.

Get rid of Cuomo as quickly as possible and for the love of god NY, elect someone who pledges not to take corporate money. Why is this not a national priority yet?

All politicians should be held accountable for their actions with the same standards. You f up, whether you're a Dem or Rep, you ought to pay the consequences. PeriodT.

But history and even more so today with technology, we can literally see that there's a double standard to how politicians are treated depending on if they're Dems or Reps.

The USA SHOULD NOT tolerate these practices in their politics.

he should be impeached I think a lot of us are upset that this is just a win for Republicans when they truly would not care if one of their own was and has been accused of much worse.

I'm from a state neighboring NY and we all been knew that Cuomo's an eternal jackass, so it really made me cringe to see some mainstream outlets fawn over him so hard in 2020. Plus, did they not learn from the president at the time that forming cults of personality around politicians is probably not the smartest bet? And then of course it blew up in their faces.

Hope he gets held accountable. Regardless of how fairly or unfairly other Ds or Rs were treated in the past, there's no excuse not to properly investigate on our next go-around, this time with Cuomo.
