Former Aide to Gov. Cuomo Accuses Him of Sexual Harassment

A former aide to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo accused him of sexual harassment on Sunday.
Lindsey Boylan, who worked for the Cuomo administration from 2015 to 2018 and is currently running for Manhattan Borough President, made the accusation on Twitter, writing that the alleged conduct went on “for years” and that “many saw it, and watched.”
“I could never anticipate what to expect: would I be grilled on my work (which was very good) or harassed about my looks. Or would it be both in the same conversation? This was the way for years,” she continued.
On Twitter, Boylan explained why she would not be speaking to the press regarding her accusation.
Earlier this month, Boylan described her experience working for Cuomo as “beyond toxic.”
On Saturday, Boylan asked President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris to reconsider Cuomo as one of the contenders for attorney general.
“There are fewer things more scary than giving this man, who exists without ethics, even more control. I saw how he wielded power for years. He takes advantage of people, including me. I hope @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris don’t do this,” she wrote on Twitter.
A spokesperson for Cuomo denied the allegations.
“There is simply no truth to these claims,” Cuomo’s press secretary, Caitlin Girouard said on Sunday.

Special Counsel continues to beg Judge Chutkan to ‘muzzle Donald Trump’

Special counsel Jack Smith continues to ask U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan to silence former President Donald Trump by any means necessary ahead of an October 16 hearing on a proposed gag order.
Smith’s original request was unsealed last week, prompting Trump to respond on social media platforms and interview, which Smith’s office says bolsters their case to place a gag order on Trump.
In a 22-page filing, senior assistant special counsel Molly Gaston said prosecutors rejected Trump’s claims that their proposed gag order was an attempt to silence him on the campaign trail. Rather, she said, it was an effort to prevent him from trying to make “use of his candidacy as a cover for making prejudicial public statements about this case.”

“[T]here is no legitimate need for the defendant, in the course of his campaign, to attack known witnesses regarding the substance of their anticipated testimony,” Gaston wrote.
“[N]o other criminal defendant would be permitted to issue public statements insinuating that a known witness in his case should be executed,” Gaston wrote. “This defendant should not be, either.”
