Andrew Cuomo: Nah, I Don't See the Need for an Independent View of My Decision to Kill Thousands and Thousands of Elderly People By Forcing Nursing Homes to Take Coronavirus Patients
These nursing homes did not have isolation wards and did not have any capacity to keep coronavirus to specific places.
So the wholes of the nursing homes were soon infected, and thousands of people died needlessly.
Or perhaps... this was always the intention?
Well, Andrew Cuomo says there's no need to investigate why he ordered this murderously terrible decision.
He's looked into his actions, and he's given himself a clean bill of health.

Cuomo says he doesn't see the need for an independent review of the state's handling of COVID-19 in nursing homes.
This will actually be enough for almost half the country. A Democrat said something, and therefore it is racist to question it.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday said "you'd have to be blind" to think calls to further calls to investigate the coronavirus deaths linked to state nursing homes amid the pandemic are "not political."
Cuomo, during a press conference Monday, said he "wouldn't do an investigation" into the nursing home deaths during the coronavirus pandemic in the state of New York.
"I wouldn't do an investigation whether or not it's political, everybody can make that decision for themselves," Cuomo said. "I think you'd have to be blind to realize it's not political."
We don't need independent investigations into political wrongdoing, because each person can decide for himself what happened?
Does this rule protect Republicans, too, or just leftwing corporatist Democrats?
...
Cuomo has been insisting that the thousands of nursing home deaths had nothing to do with his March 25 order that required nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients who were medically stable without testing them, claiming that the deaths were caused by infected staff members who spread the virus.
A report released last month backs up his claims, but experts have questioned the report's methods.
A report Cuomo ordered and which was conducted by his political hacks, they mean. Thus the refusal of an outside investigation.
Unrelated: Kamala Harris' twitter account has unfollowed Joe Biden's account.
Does this mean anything?
