Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo may be out of office, but his legal troubles aren’t over just yet.

"The attorney general's report was designed to be a political firecracker on an explosive topic."

“Do you think it would be good or bad for our democracy if the events that took place at the capitol on January sixth happened after every election?”

The Assembly dropped the probe on Friday after advice from attorneys that it wouldn’t be legal to impeach Cuomo after he’s left office

“I’ve been in this business long enough to know that it’s not in the purview of the New York State governor to dictate to the New York State Assembly."

The investigation brought down the governor less than a year after he won an Emmy Award for his famous coronavirus briefings.

“There is a lot there. You know, we didn’t just investigate sexual misconduct allegations like the Attorney General. We have investigations in several other areas that are pending."

“You want to make sure things are right, but also done in an expeditious manner. And, you know, I believe that this is going to be dealt with in weeks.”

“There has been no open-minded fact-finding in this case.”

“It was the right thing to do. The governor needs to be held accountable.”
