DOJ Probing Andrew Cuomo For Lying To Congress: Report

The Department of Justice, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, has started an investigation into former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for allegedly lying to Congress.

The investigation started around a month ago, and after the Department of Justice dropped a case against Cuomo’s opponent for New York City Mayor, The New York Times reported.

The Department of Justice and FBI spokespeople declined to comment on the alleged investigation, but Rich Azzopardi, a spokesman for Cuomo, said he believes what is happening is “lawfare.:

“We have never been informed of any such matter, so why would someone leak it now?” the attorney said. “The answer is obvious: This is lawfare and election interference plain and simple — something President Trump and his top Department of Justice officials say they are against.”

He said that Cuomo “testified truthfully to the best of his recollection about events from four years earlier, and he offered to address any follow-up questions from the subcommittee — but from the beginning this was all transparently political.”

MSNBC anchor Joe Scarborough said that he believes the investigation assures that Cuomo will be the next mayor of New York City.

“The probe is focused on congressional testimony that Cuomo gave last year. That is according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke to NBC News. Republicans in the House requested the investigation, alleging the former Democratic governor lied to the Oversight Committee when he said he wasn’t involved in reviewing a New York Health Department report on the state’s handling of the Coronavirus pandemic. The investigation comes just one month before the Democratic primary in New York City’s mayoral election,” Scarborough’s co-host, and wife, Mika Brzezinski said.

““This is what I don’t understand. They have to know. This assures Andrew Cuomo of being the next mayor of New York City.,” Scarborough said.

“Like, they have to know they are getting him — like, this is what they kept laughing at Democrats about a year ago. You do understand you’re getting Donald Trump elected president of the United States by putting him on trial. Why don’t they get a crown and put it on Cuomo’s head that says Mr. Mayor?” he said.
