Updated
ALBANY Sunday marked the 365th day since the first New Yorker tested positive for the coronavirus, concluding a year defined in large part by the omnipresence of Gov. Andrew Cuomo on television screens throughout the state and nation.
Cuomo seemed poised to spend the day in hiding. And even if he does emerge later in the day, he has made it clear that he will not discuss a New York Times
As of mid-Sunday morning, Cuomo’s schedule listed no public events for that day. If that doesn’t change, it would mark the sixth straight day Cuomo has gone without taking questions from the press. That would be the longest such streak since the pandemic began.

ALBANY A bipartisan chorus is calling for an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, but it remains unclear who would conduct such a probe and how insulated it would be from his administration.

This week we were completely unsurprised to learn that Gov. Andrew Cuomo threatened and bullied a Democratic assemblyman over his nursing home scandal. That assemblyman, Ron Kim, lost an uncle in a nursing home to presumed COVID-19, and is one of several individuals to demand apologies from Cuomo and investigations into what happened. When the two men spoke on the phone recently, Kim said that the governor questioned his integrity and threatened to finish his career if he didn t back off.
That report has given other Cuomo critics an opening to share their own unfortunate encounters with Cuomo. Assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou assembled a list for her Twitter followers. And she says she is working with plenty of material.
