Cuomo faces calls for investigation on his last day in office

EASTERN TODAY THAT THE LOOK AT YOUR HEADLINES. AINSLEY: THANK YOU TODAY MARKS NEW YORK GOVERNOR ANDREW CUOMO'S LAST DAY IN OFFICE BUT FAMILY MEMBERS OF THOSE LOST UNDER HIS COAT 19 POLICIES ARE CALLING ON THE INCOMING A ADMINISTRATION TO HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE. STEVE: JANICE DEAN LOST HER IN-LAWS OF COVID-19 IN NEW YORK NURSING HOME FACILITIES IS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST OUTSPOKEN VOICES TRYING TO HOLD THE GOVERNOR ACCOUNTABLE. NEW YORK DEMOCRAT IS ONLY MEN RON KIM LOST HIS UNCLE TO COVID-19 IN A NURSING HOME AS WELL, THEY BOTH JOIN US NOW TO REACT, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE YOU BOTH HAVE BEEN AT THE FOREFRONT OF DEMANDING MORE FROM ACCOUNTABILITY ON ALL FRONTS FOR ALMOST GOVERNOR CUOMO I SEE THOSE WORDS, WHAT YOUR REACTION. >> SOME RELIEF, THE SPOTLIGHT THAT HE LOVES SO MUCH IS FINALLY DIMMING UNLESS HE GOES OVER TO CNN AND HAS A SHOW WITH HIS BROTHER WHICH IS VERY POSSIBLE. BUT HE IS LEAVING, WE THINK AND WE HOPE HE CAN CHECK OUT ANY TIME THAT HE LIKES BUT I DON'T THINK HE EVER WANTS TO LEAVE. I WILL CONTINUE TO RAISE MY VOICE LIKE I KNOW MY FRIEND RON KIMBALL TO HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE THERE ARE SEVERAL INVESTIGATIONS NOT ONLY INTO NURSING HOMES BUT STATE RESOURCES, FRIENDS AND FAMILY COVID TEST WHEN NURSING HOMES COULD NOT GET ANY. HE HAD A $5.1 MILLION BOOK STILL AND GAVE IMMUNITY TO NURSING HOMES AFTER THE MARCH 25 ORDER SO KATHY HOCHUL HAS A MESS THAT IS LEFT BEHIND. AINSLEY: ASSEMBLYMAN HOW ARE YOU FEELING. >> I SHARE HER SENTIMENT AND I FEEL RELIEVED THAT THE DAY IS FINALLY HERE AND NO LONGER IN A POSITION OF POWER TO ABUSE WOMEN WORKERS, LAWMAKERS AND REPORTERS, JOURNALISTS, YOU NAME IT, THIS IS A MAN THAT WAS GOING TO SAY AND DO ANYTHING TO DODGE ACCOUNTABILITY. AND TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST HE IS LEAVING ALBANY ON A VERY SOFT LANDING, THIS IS A GRACIOUS EXIT HE HAS NOT ADMITTED TO DOING ANYTHING AT ALL WHEN HE GETS TO LEAVE ALBANY, THAT'S WHY I SEE A STRONG ABOUT CONTINUING THE IMPEACHMENT PROCESS SO WE CAN GET A FULL ACCOUNT OF WHAT HE DID WRONG SO WE DON'T REPEAT THOSE MISTAKES MOVING FORWARD. STEVE: AS WE LOOK AT THE U-HAUL THAT IS TAKING HIS STUFF OUT OF THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION, IF HE HAS NOT IMPEACHED, HE CAN ALWAYS RUN FOR OFFICE AGAIN, CUNNINGHAM. >> THAT IS 100% CORRECT PEOPLE MISTAKE THE INTENT OF IMPEACHMENT, IMPEACHMENT MEANS NOT JUST THE PHYSICAL REMOVAL OF ANDREW CUOMO, THE MAN HIMSELF BUT THE REMOVAL OF HIS CRIMINAL ACTS AND HIS WRONGDOINGS IN SEEKING PUBLIC OFFICE, THAT IS OUR CONSTITUTION MANDATE TO PURSUING IMPEACHMENT WHEN WE SEE CRIMINAL MISCONDUCT BY EXECUTIVE OFFICE. BRIAN: I'M SURE YOU SAW HE HELD A 30 MINUTE PRESS CONFERENCE YESTERDAY ABOUT HENRI AND BASKING IN HIS LAST MOMENT MUCH LIKE HE DID DURING COVID PUTTING ON A PERFORMANCE THAT WON HIM AN EMMY AWARD AND HE STILL ACTING YESTERDAY, YOUR REACTION TO THAT AND YOU MENTIONED LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR HOGLE ARE YOU HOPEFUL SHE WILL REJECT SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THE GOVERNOR HAS DONE. >> I'M NOT HOPEFUL SHE STILL KEEPING HOWARD ZUCKER ON BOARD WHO WAS AND IS THE HEALTH COMMISSIONER AND HELPED AUTHOR THE MARCH 20 FOR THE ORDER SHE SAID SHE WILL GET RID OF ALL THE PEOPLE THAT COULD BE POSSIBLY INDICATED WITH HIS GOVERNOR BUT SHE HASN'T GOTTEN RID OF HOWARD ZUCKER, SEE THE GOVERNOR YESTERDAY RAMBLE ON ABOUT STORMS I HAVE TO SAY WAS A LITTLE BIT IRONIC BECAUSE THEY MADE FUN OF ME FOR BEING THE WEATHER PERSON INTO SEE HIM SAY THESE WEATHER MAPS ARE VERY COMPLICATED, IT'S A DANGEROUS STORM OBVIOUSLY AND I WANT PEOPLE TO BE SAFE BUT QUITE INCREDIBLE THAT THE LAST THING HE IS TALKING ABOUT IS A TROPICAL SYSTEM IN NEW YORK. AINSLEY: ASSEMBLYWOMAN CAN YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT DO YOU HAVE THE POWER TO TELL THEM THAT YOU NEED TO CLEAN HOUSE WHEN IT COMES TO THESE INDIVIDUALS WHO MADE THESE DECISIONS. >> ABSOLUTELY NO MOMENT THAT THE GOVERNOR ANNOUNCED I WAS OUT THERE WITH JANICE AND OTHERS TO MAKE SURE THE LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR IS FULLY VETTED WE HAVE THE TENDENCY IN THE COUNTRY AND STATE TO ALWAYS CALL FOR UNITY AND EMBRACE EVERYONE WITHOUT REALLY VENTING THE NEXT PERSON OF POWER. IT IS OUR DUTY TO DO SO WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT SHE'S SETTING UP THE RIGHT PROTOCOLS, DAY ONE TO ROOT OUT THE TOXIC AND ABUSIVE NATURE LIKE PLACES LIKE ALBANY IT'S GOOD THAT SHE'S OUT THERE TALKING ABOUT COLLABORATION AND BUILDING PARTNERSHIPS, I WANT THAT DESPERATELY AND I WANTED TO SUCCEED BUT WE NEED TO SEE A LOT MORE TO TRULY BELIEVE THAT SHE'S THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THIS POSITION SPEAK. STEVE: LATER TODAY HE'LL BE FORMER
