New York–November 14th…Chairman Langworthy issued the following statement in response to this news, first reported by the Times Union, that Governor Cuomo was secretly communicating with JCOPE about the vote to investigate his office for clear violations of state law.

”This smoking gun proves what we have been saying all along, which is that Cuomo and JCOPE have been colluding to ensure he evades prosecution for his crimes. This governor is a thug and a criminal whose tentacles have corrupted every crevice of state government. His new address should be a jail cell, not the governor’s mansion.”
