New York Gov Cuomo Should Resign – Biden

United States President, Joe Biden has said New York Governor, Andrew Cuomo should resign.

Gatekeepers News reports that Biden’s call for Cuomo’s resignation follows a report by New York Attorney General’s office that found that the Governor sexually harassed multiple women.

New York Attorney General, Letitia James on Tuesday, during a press conference, said: “The investigation found that Governor Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed current and former New York State employees by engaging in unwelcome and non-consensual touching and making numerous offensive comments of a suggestive and sexual nature that created a hostile work environment for women.

“The independent investigation found that Governor Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women, many of whom were young women, by engaging in unwanted groping, kisses, hugging and by making inappropriate comments.”

In his reaction, Biden said “I think he should resign. I understand that the state legislature may decide to impeach. I don’t know that for a fact.

The President, during a chat with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, said he’s sure there are “some embraces that were totally innocent, but apparently, the attorney general decided there were things that weren’t.”

White House Press Secretary, Jen Psaki earlier called the sexual harassment allegations against Cuomo “abhorrent.”

“I don’t know that anyone could’ve watched this morning and not found the allegations to be abhorrent. I know I certainly did,” Psaki said when asked about New York Attorney General Letitia James’ investigation.

Gatekeepers News reports that Psaki noted that there have been no conversations on Tuesday between the White House and the governor’s office.

She added that the message from the White House to the women who came forward with their accounts is that “all women who have lived through…this type of experience–whether it is harassment or abuse or in the worst case, assault–deserve to have their voices heard, deserve to be treated with respect and with dignity.”
