boylen wholesale. what perhaps i think was most bothersome, and there was a lot, but out of interviewing 179 witnesses, the investigators made a choice not to include what a lot of people had to say. and buried at the end at the page 121 is a sentence that should scare everybody. scare everybody if you are being accused of something, and this is all you get about what people have to say that's good about you. here is what it said. it said a number of former and current executive chamber staff, particularly the senior staff, as well as state troopers with the protection detail denied having witnessed or experienced any conduct by the governor that could be characterized as sexual or otherwise inappropriate. that sentence is buried at the end and of the over 1,000 footnotes, why didn't they cite the transcripts? why didn't they quote from those people? did what those people have to say bear upon any of the allegations that they included? the governor deserved to have a full and balanced report that laid

boylen saying. one of her aides resigned, and did the investigation subpoena the records from the campaign in the same way they subpoenaed the executive chamber and my client for anything and everything having to do with the sexual harassment with lindsay boylan. the complainants needed to be scrutinized just as much as the governor and the chamber, and that didn't happen here. the investigators credited lindsay boylen despite the fact they knew she threatened a witness to get them to change his story, and he did. one thing that has been missing through this is that there was a signal about seven or eight months before ms. boylen made her tweets in december, a signal that she was out for some type of revenge against the governor's office. you see, ms. boylen had ran in a primary against congressman, jerry nadler, and in march of 2020 when covid start the governor issued a executive order that limited the time you could get petitions to be on the ballot, and she felt that was directed at her and she

boylen constituted unlawful retaliation. i will turn it back to mr. kim to say a few words about our findings with respect to the workplace culture within the executive chamber. >> thank you, ms. clark. as set forth in our report, we find that the culture within the executive chamber contributed to the conditions that allowed the governor to sexually harassing conduct to occur and to persist. the culture also informed a way in which the executive chamber responded to allegations of sexual harassment as ms. clark has described through violations of their own policies and through unlawful retaliation. what was the culture? words that witnesses have used repeatedly to describe it include toxic, hostile, abusive. others use words like fear, intimidation, bullying, vindictive. as one senior staffer stated bluntly, as the sexual harassment allegations became public in march of this year in text exchanges with others -- with another in the administration, i quote, hopefully when this is all done, people will realize the culture even outside of the sexual har

. >> sandra: lindsey boylen is planning to sue the governor. five district attorneys in new york are pursuing criminal investigations into his behavior. one accuser telling fox she would take the stand. >> would you testify against governor cuomo? >> i would. i have a definite feeling about the way his response to us women and that he is trying to make excuses for his behavior. the governor is not above the law nor is he above plain decency. so i think it's a disgrace of what he is doing. >> sandra: bryan llenas is live with the latest. >> we're starting to get a timeline for possible impeachment proceedings against governor cuomo. the new york state assembly's judiciary committee has just sent the following to governor cuomo's lawyers. we write to inform you the committee's investigation is nearing completion and assembly will soon consider potential articles of impeachment against your client. accordingly we invite you to provide any additional evidence or written submission you with like the committee to consider before its work concludes. c

boylen and an assistant, and they started sending the memos to reporters. there was also a proposed letter or op-ed drafted by the governor that went through several drafts. the letter attacked ms. boylan for alleged misconduct at work and alleged misconduct with men other than the governor, and that she was funded by far right republicans and supporters of donald trump. although the letter was never published it was read to those outside the executive chamber either to get their advice or sign their names to it and share it with at least one member of the press. the governor was arguing for the release of that letter. he was finally convinced to abandon it by a number of people that thought it was a bad idea in part because of what was in the letter could not be substantiated and shaming a victim was not a good strategy. under the standard the confidential release of internal records to the press and the letter disparaging ms. boylen violated it's own rules. >> the culture within the executive chamber contributed to the conditions that allowed the sexual h

lindsey boylen who had come forward as well. charlotte bennett posting on twitter, resign, very simply. resign. governor cuomo. she had detailed what she says she experienced in a couple of different interviews and we heard from ann clark a short time ago talking about the corroboration of her account. that was basically in realtime the texts and the conversations that she had about those encounters with governor cuomo. he has, of course, repeatedly denied the allegations of misconduct and sexual harassment and there was a specific question about that in the press conference a short time ago, john. as to whether he admitted to or denied any of these allegations. and we were told that it was a combination. some he had a different interpretation of those encounters and others the governor said he didn't remember. >> erica hill starting to build the file of the reactions. important reaction. and it's critical these women were heard in the investigations and heard now that the investigation is out. we're getting some reaction. jenni

do. allegations against andrew cuomo 1st came in march from this woman, a former aid named lindsey boylen, who accused cuomo of making unwelcome advances. that led to more accusations from 11 women and todo. the governor has apologize, but to this day denies his signs of affection or harassment. in my mind, i've never crossed the line with any one. reaction has been swift, including from marianne wang, an attorney for 2 of corals accusers. she said, my clients steal both vindicated and relieved that corman will no longer be in a position of power over any one. a 5 month investigation concluded last week found he created a hostile working environment for women. governor cuomo, sexually arrest multiple women, many of whom were young women by engaging and unwanted groping kisses, hugging and by making inappropriate comments. a top aid stepped down amid accusations her team retaliated against at least one of his accusers and state lawmakers, including democrats, once seen as allies launched impeachment proceedings against him, adding to the already growing cause for chrome of resignation. are

so they have to transition from a business model, whereas extracted from which i can boylen fossil fuel down the ground oil and gas to another one where gas storing c o 2 underground. so there are different ways in which industries can be brought along and can still work within a market economy to, to get that shareholders and those that refuse to transition, i think there's, there's going to come a time very soon when the fossil fuel companies are gonna lose s i she license to, to, to extract fossil fuels, take a look and say enough is enough. we don't want all technology, we want renewables and russia appliances and assemble and they're going to get strive assets, you know, they're gonna have a bunch of stuff on there and they know this and they have to transition. i'm not sure what they say when they're loading the volatility. i mean, just finally, if we did stop using fossil fuels for our cars, if everyone in the world did, i know the huge revolution in the transportation being strategized by the chinese communist party, there's still be the pentagon. and people say the pentagon emi

even, you know, brought forth in court or anything, but other survivors have been smeared lindsey boylen. homo staff has now been, it's been made clear that they released illegally her personnel file and tried to smear her when she came forward about fomo. so it is ramp and how the powerful men are using their resources to silence and suppress and use them. corporate media to do that further in america. what about the bigger picture? is this a me to moment or is this more inter party politics kimmy, this isn't me too. is is a kind of a hash tag. it doesn't have any meaning. rose mcgowan and i have talked about that and she has made it very clear. it seems like we're in a culture right now almost in america where we're holding up politicians or celebrities, they're not celebrities, they work for us. our tax tax dollars paid for them to do their jobs and they should be held to a higher standard. and part of that higher standard is to not sexually assault and sexually harass their own staff and women's career should not. and because they come forward about a powerful man. so the bigger issu

to attack the credibility of the first woman to step forward to accuse him of wrongdoing lindsey boylenation said it agreed with her decision and held themselves accountable for lack of transparency. but adding insult to injury is what roberta kaplan said a few years ago regarding the legal counsel she contributed to the case against security justice brett kavanaugh. what we've learned from me to and times up today is that women should be believed. and that women have no reason, no rational reason to put themselves through this unless what they are saying is true. so she clearly took the opposite point of view when it came to at least one woman accusing governor cuomo of sexual harassment. and a prominent lgbtq advocate president of the human rights campaign also under fire to resign for allegedly providing legal counsel in that same letter to discredit lindsey boylen. >> dana: thank you. >> bill: didn't expect that one, did we? >> dana: not that one. >> bill: great to be with you. many matters to cover at the moment. >> dana: my mom sent me a note said she thinks bill is nice and smart

lindsey boylen is suing him in court and so is brittany commisso. this doesn't go away.ent by this resignation and with it i think the impeachment falls apart in albany. there are more charges coming against him. it is an extraordinary story. talk about pride comes before the fall and think about the way he was during covid and how proud he was of what he did and his leadership book and the art poster he had drawn and all of those elderly people who lost their lives in nursing homes and no remorse for decisions made along those lines. there is a long string that led to what we saw yesterday. >> dana: "new york post" cover is great. at the end of his grope. the other thing i found galling is when he said i was unaware that the lines had been redrawn. he signed legislation that requires everybody who works in the state of new york to have to go through this long sexual harassment training that he signed into law and like i had no idea. >> how galling is that moment when he says i didn't know that the lines had been redrawn. it must be because there is a new generation. wak

. >> cuomo accusing boylen is filing a civil lawsuit against him. there were -- five new york district attorneys are investigating governor cuomo for possible criminal charges. >> for those of you who did not come forward but inspire to and cooperate in a criminal investigation, please reach out to our office. >> none of the accusers have filed criminal complaints, dana. it is very unlikely prosecutors move forward without their cooperation. >> dana: thank you. >> bill: a lot of options the governor could do. step down now. wait for impeachment vote or investigation and hang on and run for reelection. he is up in 2022. on cnn chris cuomo hosts a show every night at 9:00. the clip going back to june of last year that started to put a laser focus on the relationship between these two brothers. >> i hope you are able to appreciate what you did in your state and what it means for the rest of the country now and what it will always means to those who love and care about you the most. i'm wowed by what you did and i'm wowed by how you did it. >> bill: tha
