Former New York governor Andrew Cuomo, appeared at God’s Battalion of Prayer Church in Brooklyn, N.Y., Sunday where he defended himself against allegations that he had sexually harassed multiple women. In his first public appearance since his resignation, Cuomo claimed he had been canceled and said that God and “the Good Book” had been guiding him.
“I’ve learned a powerful lesson,” said Cuomo, “and I paid a very high price for learning that lesson. God isn’t finished with me yet. And every day I ask him for his guidance to help me grow and to help me learn.”
New York Attorney General Letitia James, whose office conducted an investigation last year into the allegations against Cuomo, responded to his Sunday message in a statement, saying, “Serial sexual harasser Andrew Cuomo won’t even spare a house of worship from his lies. Even though multiple independent investigations found his victims to be credible, Cuomo continues to blame everyone but himself. Cuomo wasn’t railroaded; he quit so he wouldn’t be impeached. New Yorkers are ready to move forward from this sick, pathetic man.”
