The Cuomo brothers and other liberal, privileged men have finally outdone themselves – New York Post

So, will Chris Cuomo, CNNs most favored blowhard, report tonight on the bombshell findings into his brothers long-term sexual predation?

My educated guess: No. Why would he? He didnt last night, he wont tonight, and he never will, no matter how his brother goes down.

Cuomo the Younger is but one example of privileged, liberal men, high on their own self-regard, who have really outdone themselves this week.

Lets look at our disgraced governor Andrew. The deluge of credible accusations leveled against him months ago truly despicable stuff wasnt enough to shame him from office. (Nor were the nursing home deaths he covered up, but thats another story.)

No, this self-styled feminist doubled down, seeming to out one of his own family members in telling the attorney generals independent investigators that he only kept asking one young staffer about her sexual assault because a very close family member had been sexually assaulted in high school and this had made him extra-sensitive.

A new low, even for him.

There is no longer any debate as to what Gov. Cuomo did, how he abused his power, and what he truly thinks of women.

If #MeToo is to mean anything, Andrew Cuomo must go.

So too must Chris be ousted from his perch at CNN. As we now know, Chris secretly advised his brother to gut out this scandal, over a series of crisis talks, despite a pronounced conflict of interest.

Not only that the AG report reveals that Chris was also given secret and privileged information from the Executive Branch during the crisis, helped draft at least one of his brothers denials, and made decisions that impacted employees of the State. These are serious breaches of journalistic ethics.

I know, I know: Chris isnt really a journalist. He just plays one on TV. But still how can CNN expect to be taken seriously with this guy still on the air?

Remember, it was Chris who told his audience, with his usual soupon of smugness, that he couldnt cover the governors scandal because they were brothers. This, despite Chris hosting his brother near-nightly at the height of the pandemic.

If logic has no place in Chris Cuomos ethical code, how can he be trusted to deliver the news?

And lets not forget Chris faking his re-entry from the basement, where hed been isolating with COVID, even though hed been breaking quarantine all over the Hamptons like the entitled, virtue-signaling hypocrite he is.

But this was Tuesday, and the news cycle can give you whiplash. Perhaps the Cuomos were hoping reports of President Obamas massive, 500-guest birthday blowout at his $12 million Marthas Vineyard estate this weekend, with 200 servers on hand, might become the next focus of public outrage.

After all, as one set of rules for me, another for thee goes, this was pretty egregious stuff.

But Obama, in an unusual show of humility, reconsidered. Hes reportedly scaling way down. Perhaps this howl from a local worker resonated:

His birthday party is insane, one of Obamas caterers told The Post on Monday. His bash is a nightmare to pull off this time of year on the tiny island especially due to the lack of labor due to the coronavirus. What is he thinking?

Obama was probably thinking that super-spreader events are only for Trumpers and that he, of course, was doing it right. But if theres one thing weve learned about Obama in his brief time since leaving office, its that he cares more about wealth, celebrity and Netflix deals than lending his halo effect to any substantial, non-profit-making post-presidential work.

Alas.

And this brings us to Matt Damon, last week the subject of glowing profiles as the savior of movies for grown-ups. So confident is Damon in his greatness that he told the UK Sunday Times that, up until a few months ago, he often tossed around what he called the f-word for homosexual until his daughter told him it was wrong.

Matt Damon, 50 years old, raging liberal and self-identified intellectual one who preaches to us all on climate change while flying private, or the importance of public schools while sending his kids to private ones expects us to believe that he didnt know the meaning and weight of this word?

It gets even better. After massive backlash online Damons new movie, in which he plays an American oil rigger in MAGA drag, already a bomb he issued a statement claiming that he never, ever, ever used the f-slur. Ever.

Heres the thing: If Matt Damon had never said that word or told that story, if the UK Sunday Times got it wrong or made it up, Matt Damon would be suing that paper for millions in libel damages and not for nothing, libel laws in the UK are harder on the press than they are here.

If Damon had a case, youd better believe hed make it.

But hes not. Instead, Damon is running to Variety and after reading this fantasy version of events, you have to wonder why any publication would dare give it their imprimatur.

During a recent interview, I recalled a discussion I had with my daughter where I attempted to contextualize for her the progress that has been made though by no means completed since I was growing up in Boston and, as a child, heard the word f-g used on the street before I knew what it even referred to, Damon said in part. I have never called anyone f-t in my personal life and this conversation with my daughter was not a personal awakening.

If you believe that, Chris Cuomo has a story tonight hed rather not tell you.
