Schumer and Gillibrand call for Cuomo's resignation in wake of AG report
CNN
Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday faced mounting pressure from Democrats, including New York's two US senators, to resign in the wake of a report that found he sexually harassed multiple women.
The investigation conducted by New York Attorney General Letitia James' office found that Cuomo engaged in "unwelcome and nonconsensual touching," and made comments of a "suggestive" sexual nature. The report detailed the allegations of 11 women claiming harassment. Cuomo's conduct violated multiple federal and state laws, James said. Cuomo, however, has continued to insist he did nothing wrong and made no indication in remarks on Tuesday that he will step down.The US began pulling military equipment and additional personnel out of Niger on Friday after waiting months for the ruling military junta to approve US military flights into the country, two sources familiar with the matter said Saturday, ahead of a September 15 withdrawal deadline agreed to by the two countries.
The judge who oversaw Donald Trump’s criminal hush money trial in New York on Friday informed the former president’s defense team and prosecutors with the Manhattan district attorney’s office that a comment was posted on the New York State Unified Court Systems’ public Facebook page last week by a poster who claimed to be a cousin of a juror, saying that Trump would be convicted.
