The photos look pretty tame IMO. It’s just people hanging out on a boat and posing for a picture. His arm is around her in the same way most people do in photos. 

He never needed to develop a real connection to a woman before, probably ever in his life. This is what failsons of Powerful Men (tm) are like.

Thank you for providing what the article didn’t. Even without your contribution of the quote from Blackstone, it made sense to me that if someone or some entity invests literal hundreds of millions of dollars into an enterprise, they’re going to want to have some say in its operation.

It’s like “I have a Black Friend”.

Didn’t you love the bit where he mentioned his family member who was sexually assaulted, as if that means anything.

The ickiest part of his TAPED statement was the constant references to specific individuals and needing to re-victimize those women by continuing to speak their stories as if he was the authority figure. First thing any scumbag consultant would tell someone in his position is to smear the victim...which he had no…

“on November 16, 2020, the Governor hugged Executive Assistant #1 and then reached under her blouse and grabbed her breast” continuing “On multiple occasions in 2019 and 2020, the Governor engaged in close and intimate hugs with Executive Assistant #1 during which he, on occasion, grabbed her butt.”

They saw all the overripe tomatoes and rotten eggs the women were bringing into the auditorium?

This will be extremely helpful in the women he harassed suing the shit out of him, and potentially for whatever agency would handle these complaints in NY to bring similar actions against him.

What surprises me is not that Cuomo’s a creepy harasser; it’s that he’s so bad at it. He comes across like a bumbling teen trying to be “smooth.”

If you’re in the same territory of thinking as Mike Pence, that men can’t be trusted alone with women without something sexual happening, you’ve taken a wrong turn somewhere.

Right? Disgusting and sus as hell.

the Executive Chamber did not report the allegations at the time to the Governor’s Office of Employee Relations (“GOER”), the State agency tasked with conducting harassment investigations for State agencies, and did not otherwise conduct any formal investigation. Instead, the Executive Chamber’s senior staff sought to…

I’ve talked to some people who believe that because they don’t use it in a homophobic way it’s not a slur. As if not directing the word at gay people makes it acceptable and not homophobic. It makes no sense, but Matt Damon seems obtuse enough to believe that. He’s wrong obviously and it doesn’t make it any better.

And he throws his daughter under the bus too.

This has to be the most bizarre incident of career suicide I’ve seen for a while.

“I was only using that word to ask for directions on how not to use it.”

I hate when white men think we’re all as stupid as they are. 

I can almost believe he’s never said it to someone’s face. That’s the my charitable way of reading that statement.
