CNN says it was 'inappropriate' for Chris Cuomo to participate in strategy sessions advising brother on sexual harassment allegations

CNN anchor Chris Cuomo advised his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, on how to respond to sexual harassment allegations — a breach of traditional journalistic ethics that the news network described as "inappropriate."
The Washington Post, which broke the news Thursday afternoon, reported that Cuomo encouraged his brother against resigning during strategy sessions with the governor's communications team and lawyers. Several prominent Democratic lawmakers have encouraged the governor to resign in light of multiple allegations of sexual harassment. Gov. Cuomo apologized in early March for "making anyone feel uncomfortable," but maintained he "never touched anyone inappropriately."
Oregon authorities are investigating a shooting by a Border Patrol agent in Portland that wounded two people federal authorities say are tied to a violent international gang – an incident that renewed questions about the Trump administration’s handling of its immigration crackdown in the city and across the US.

Mutual distrust between federal and state authorities derailed plans for a joint FBI and state criminal investigation into Wednesday’s shooting of a Minneapolis woman by an ICE officer, leading to the highly unusual move by the Justice Department to block state investigators from participating in the probe.

Vice President JD Vance’s claim Thursday that an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis is “protected by absolute immunity” drew immediate pushback from experts who said the legal landscape around a potential prosecution is far more complicated.
