HANNAH BLEAU

New York Democrats, in a rare reprimand of Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), are demanding that the Democrat leader be stripped of his emergency coronavirus powers in response to his administration’s coverup of coronavirus nursing home death data.

Cuomo, who has generally enjoyed unmitigated praise from the establishment media and fellow Democrats throughout the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, is facing backlash from Democrat state senators following an admission from Melissa DeRosa, New York’s secretary to the governor, who privately admitted that the administration covered up nursing home death data over fears of a federal probe under the Trump administration.

Fourteen lawmakers prepared a statement, asserting that it is now clear that “the expanded emergency powers granted to the Governor are no longer appropriate.”

“Without exception, the New York State Constitution calls for the Legislature to govern as a co-equal branch of government,” the lawmakers wrote”:

While COVID-19 has tested the limits of our people and state –– and, early during the pandemic, required the government to restructure decision making to render rapid, necessary public health judgments –– it is clear that the expanded emergency powers granted to the Governor are no longer appropriate.

“While the executive’s authority to issue directives is due to expire on April 30, we urge the Senate to advance and adopt a repeal as expeditiously as possible,” they said.

The state senators include Sens. Alessandra Biaggi, Jabari Brisport, Samra Brouk, Jeremy Cooney, Andrew Gounardes, Robert Jackson, John C. Liu, John Mannion, Rachel May, Elijah Reichlin-Melnick, Gustavo Rivera, Julia Salazar, James Sanders, and James Skoufis,” per PIX11.

Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins (D-Yonkers) also issued a warning to the governor, cautioning that lawmakers will be “discussing next steps as a conference.”

“Crucial information should never be withheld from entities that are empowered to pursue oversight,” Stewart-Cousins said.

The statement follows the New York Post’s Thursday report revealing the private call between DeRosa and state lawmakers, wherein she admitted that the administration withheld nursing home data over concerns of a federal investigation.

“Because then we were in a position where we weren’t sure if what we were going to give to the Department of Justice, or what we give to you guys, what we start saying, was going to be used against us while we weren’t sure if there was going to be an investigation,” she told lawmakers, apologizing for the awkward position the administration’s actions put the lawmakers in.

“So we do apologize. I do understand the position that you were put in. I know that it is not fair,” she acknowledged. “It was not our intention to put you in that political position with the Republicans.”

The revelation prompted backlash from prominent New York lawmakers as well, including Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Lee Zeldin (R-NY), both of whom called for a Department of Justice investigation.

“Governor Cuomo, the Secretary to the Governor, and his senior team must be prosecuted immediately – both by the Attorney General of New York State and the U.S. Department of Justice,” Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) said in a statement.

“DOJ needs to immediately open an Obstruction of Justice investigation into Gov Cuomo & his admin,” Zeldin said Thursday evening.

Over 9,000 recovering coronavirus patients were sent to New York nursing homes and long-term care facilities following the Cuomo administration’s controversial March 25 directive requiring the facilities to accept such patients, according to the AP. Coronavirus-related deaths in New York nursing homes and long-term care facilities is nearing 15,000, “up from the 8,500 previously disclosed,” the outlet added.

Last month, New York Attorney General Letitia James released a damning report revealing that “a larger number of nursing home residents died from COVID-19 than the New York State Department of Health’s (DOH) published nursing home data reflected and may have been undercounted by as much as 50 percent.” Cuomo initially dismissed the reports. The bottom line, he said, is that “people died.”

“But we’re below the national average in the number of deaths in nursing homes. But who cares? Thirty-three [percent], 28 [percent], died in a hospital, died in a nursing home,” he said in response. “They died.”

Trump lawyer interrupted by laughter in senate

President Trump's defense lawyer Michael van der Veen argument against having witnesses at former President Donald Trump's second impeachment trial was interrupted by laughter from some of the Senators.

#TrumpImpeachment #CNN #News

После того, как Сенат проголосовал за вызов свидетелей, должно состояться голосование по вызову определенных свидетелей. Если большинство сенаторов проголосует за вызов этих свидетелей, ход разбирательства изменится: возможно, сенаторы сделают перерыв, чтобы вызвать свидетелей. После того, как свидетели будут вызваны, Сенат должен будет определить новый порядок проведения разбирательства

Vladimir Putin opponent Alexei Navalny's arrest has sparked unprecedented street protests in Russia.

With the Kremlin determined to crack down, Russian police have been targeting opposition activists across the country, as far away as Vladivostok, 4,000 miles east of Moscow.

An online video shows Vladivostok protester Gennady Shulga in a headlock over his dog's food bowl as Russian police interrogate him in his home.

The BBC travelled to meet Shulga, who said he believes the video was leaked to 'show people what the authorities can do'.

PBS NewsHour anchor and managing editor Judy Woodruff speaks with Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., on Feb. 13 while Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial is in recess after the senate voted 55-45 to subpoena witnesses.

Blumenthal said he thinks the case made against Trump is already done, but that witnesses like Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, who released a statement about a phone call between Trump and Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. during the Jan. 6 attack, is worth hearing from. Blumenthal said all witnesses must be explicitly relevant to the case.

He added that Republican cooperation is key to continuing a fair trial while simultaneously doing their duties, like voting on legislation for COVID-19 relief and confirming members to the Biden administration.

WATCH: Sen. Merkley speaks about how Senate should handle impeachment witnesses

Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., speaks with PBS NewsHour anchor and managing editor Judy Woodruff on Feb. 13 about how senators might call witnesses in the impeachment trial for former President Donald Trump, who is charged with inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

"It shouldn't be an unlimited number [of witnesses]. That's designed to be a political circus," Merkley said, sharing his personal preference. "Each side should get to call on an equal number of individuals to provide light and illumination on what exactly happened that day."

The Senate voted 55-45 to move forward with calling witnesses in the trial, but then moved to closing statements without a motion for further witnesses or evidence. Ultimately, the Senate will vote on whether to convict Trump on a charge of inciting an insurrection for his role in the Capitol attack.

Trump was impeached by the House in January, while he was still in office.

Lead House impeachment manager Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., delivers closing arguments in the second impeachment trial for former President Donald Trump, who is charged with inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Raskin refutes arguments that the former president’s actions after the attack are not relevant to the article of impeachment brought against him.

“If you run over and try to put out the flames, if you get lots of water and ... you call for help, a court could infer that you didn't intend for the fire to be lit in the first place,” Raskin said. “But if, on the other hand, when the fire erupts, you go and you pour more fuel on it, you stand by and you watch it gleefully, any reasonable person will infer that you not only intended the fire to start, but that … you intended to continue to keep the fire going.”

House impeachment managers and former President Donald Trump’s defense team offered their final arguments in the impeachment trial on Feb. 13. The Senate will vote on whether to convict Trump on a charge of inciting the Capitol attack. Trump was impeached by the House in January, while he was still in office.

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., spoke Feb. 13 as House impeachment managers and former President Donald Trump’s defense team offered their final cases in Trump’s second impeachment trial. The Senate will vote on whether to convict Trump on a charge of inciting an insurrection for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Trump was impeached by the House in January, while he was still in office.

Raskin said the House managers have proven that Trump’s conduct prior to the insurrection makes him culpable for inciting it, but if anyone has doubts they should look at Trump’s reaction to the violence. He said Trump clearly did not “spring into action” and even “delighted” in the violence the insurrectionists committed in his honor.

Trump was “nowhere to be found” while the Capitol was under attack, Raskin said. He added, “That desertion of duty was central to his incitement of insurrection and inextricable from it.”

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., spoke Feb. 13 as House impeachment managers and former President Donald Trump’s defense team offered their final cases in Trump’s second impeachment trial. The Senate will vote on whether to convict Trump on a charge of inciting an insurrection for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Trump was impeached by the House in January, while he was still in office.

Raskin said it is ‘plainly wrong’ to ignore Trump’s conduct during the Capitol attack and that it is central to his incitement of the insurrection, contrary to what Trump’s defense argued. Raskin called Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler’s, R-Wash., statement about a phone call between Trump and Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., “decisive evidence.” In a statement she said Trump told McCarthy “I guess these people are more upset about the election than you are” during a phone call on which McCarthy asked Trump to help stop the attack that was at the time underway.

Raskin debated the suggestion by Trump’s defense and a number of Republicans that the impeachment a result of “cancel culture,” and noted that many GOP lawmakers at Trump’s side attempted to “cancel” Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., for voting to impeach Trump, but the GOP stood up for her by voting to keep her in her position as Republican National Conference chair 145-61. “Who says you can’t stand up to bullies?” he asked, adding that Cheney is a hero for standing up for the truth.

Raskin said the House managers have presented clear evidence that Trump is guilty of inciting the insurrection, and with Beutler’s statement, “It is now clear beyond doubt that Trump supported the actions of the mob.”
