The Morning Report - 2/12/21 [J.J. Sefton]

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and the despicable travesty of this "impeachment" trial of our deposed President Trump continues, made all the more despicable by the fact that a number of RINOs are willingly, eagerly and even gleefully giving this pornographic display a fig leaf of respectability by considering "evidence" that's about as believable as Iranian Photoshopped missiles and "kids in cages." I'm looking directly at the cocaine-distended bird proboscis of Lisa "the Alaskan Snow Blower" Murkowski. When Joe Miller defeated her in a primary, that should've been the end of her. But nepotism, and corrupt political machines run deep even in Alaska and sadly we're all made to suffer for it. In any case, no one is watching this debasement, even some that are actually in the chamber, who are chewing gum and power napping as the Democrats bloviate. There's a full complement of links for those keen on the proceedings.

But the top story today is the admission from an underling of Andrew "Angel of Death" Cuomo that Trump was such a heartless, evil, white supremacist, science-denying, insurrectionist Nazi Klansman that reporting the real number of nursing home deaths in the state - all of which were Cuomo's fault - might not help the cause of getting rid of OrangeManBad.

In a recorded call with state Democrat lawmakers, DeRosa said Cuomo's team feared a federal investigation in the context of former President Donald Trump's highlighting of coronavirus-related deaths in New York's nursing homes. This fear motivated Cuomo's government to suppress the statistics against requests for such information from the state's government and citizens' organizations.

Cuomo's team prioritized political protection over transparency with New York's citizens, assessed Assemblyman Ron Kim (D-Queens), who partook in the conference call.

"They had to first make sure that the state was protected against federal investigation." Kim told the New York Post. He said DeRosa's remarks sounded "like they admitted that they were trying to dodge having any incriminating evidence that might put the administration or the [Health Department] in further trouble with the Department of Justice. That's how I understand their reasoning of why they were unable to share, in real time, the data."

DeRosa apologized to state Democrats for negative political consequences resulting from revelations of the Cuomo's government's negligence and obfuscation. She said, "So we do apologize. I do understand the position that you were put in. I know that it is not fair. It was not our intention to put you in that political position with the Republicans."

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) called for an obstruction of justice investigation into Cuomo and New York's executive branch...

... Left-wing and partisan Democrat news media outlets regularly praised Cuomo's conduct as governor in the context of the coronavirus outbreak, with many framing Cuomo's approach towards combating COVID-19 as evidence of presidential capabilities. Despite framing the spread of COVID-19 as a "crisis," Cuomo wrote a book, American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic, during his time heading New York's public health strategy.

Along with this local Democrat yokel rightfully calling out Cuomo, New York's AG Letitia James, herself a rabid Leftist and a Trump hater, seemingly has the knives out for the Angel of Death. These people do not do anything that remotely resembles an unbiased carrying out of duties, so I assume something Machiavellian is under the surface here. Cuomo must either be a liability or a threat in some way to the current junta. Regardless, he and his entire family are the perfect blending of hubris, ineptitude and corruption. Recall it was Andrew Cuomo in his capacity as Clinton's HUD secretary who played a major role in the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac debacle, fueled by the enforcement of the Community Reinvestment Act, that directly led to the 2008 financial crisis. This time, though, it was his insistence on nursing homes accepting residents infected with the Chinese Lung AIDS, and effectively unleashing a biological weapon that killed at least 8,000 stable if not healthy old folks. And that number is only a guess because this megalomaniac and his flunkies still refuse to release the real numbers while all the time blaming PIEOTUS Trump for their own failings - Failings that have cost the lives of thousands. Meanwhile, the state's economy has been decimated, schools are closed and crime is out of control. But hey, Andrew Cuomo won an Emmy Award!

Meanwhile, the CDC is talking about masks, double masks and triple masks, the DC Junta is threatening to blockade Florida while opening the southern border to let foreigners infected with the Chinese virus and the jihad virus just waltz right in, and the Big Brother Billionaire Soys Club has now muzzled James O'Keefe and Project Veritas along with Jim Hoft, Wayne Allen Root and Pam Geller.

If borrowing another couple trillion dollars means the whole thing collapses that much sooner, I say bring it on.

Have a nice weekend.
