Andrew Cuomo Took Billionaire Donor’s Private Jet to Sundance Film Festival

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's (D.) office revealed that he flew on a billionaire's private jet to the Sundance Film Festival on Monday for a screening of a documentary about his girlfriend, celebrity chef Sandra Lee.

Cuomo traveled Monday to attend the festival in Park City, Utah, on hedge fund manager Barry Rosenstein’s plane, the New York Times reports. The governor’s office said Rosenstein and his wife, Lizanne, are friends of Cuomo and Lee, and that the trip was not related to Cuomo’s official duties or his campaign.

Cuomo’s spokesman Richard Azzopardi described the Rosensteins as "longtime friends of Sandra and the governor, with no business before the state."

"The value of the trip is being tabulated, and as it was not in his official capacity nor related to the campaign, will not be covered by taxpayers nor by campaign funds," Azzopardi said.

Nothing is too good for Andy, just ask him. Just a shame the plane got off the ground.

 

[Deplorable Me]

If it gets him out of NY is that a bad thing?

I was hoping it landed with the nose vertical. FUAC!

 

[Jezman]

They had to point out it was not political., soooooo it was political related. I am shocked.

 

[GTN]

at least for once he did something we weren’t paying for.

 

[togmaster]

Hope it crashes.

No way he took a bribe or profited from his office. Just so you know I would get fired for taking a free water from a deli I just inspected. It’s considered bribery. I feel a bit um how do I put this oh like there’s a double standard.

which is code for: the Rosensteins will be donating money to The Emperor of New Yorkistans reelection campaign in the near future.

I'm just waiting for his #MeToo sex scandal to break. I mean, he's going to Sundance and all.

Isn’t it illegal for him to accept gifts like that and of that value?

Unfortunately round trip

Public Officers Law §73(5).

No statewide elected official, state officer or employee, member of the legislature or legislative employee shall, directly or indirectly, solicit, accept or receive any gift having a value of seventy-five dollars or more whether in the form of money, service, loan, travel, entertainment, hospitality.

FUAC monkey face will either claim it was less than $75, or he was not elected but rather ordained at birth, or he is exempt since he is beyond reproach by all his friends and serfs, or he will fake a reimbursement at pennies on a dollar.

 

[Acer-m14]

we better see both parties bank statements to see who paid for the fuel ... it better be on FUAC's statement or its a gift ..

 

[Saltwater60]

Isn’t it illegal for him to accept gifts like that and of that value?

Yes it is. I work for the state and that’s the only thing they made me sign off on and agree to HR policy wise. I inspect food establishments and if they offer me A bottled water I decline because of this. They take it really seriously for us at least.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

The more he flies, the greater the chances gravity can solve our problem. Dreams can come true.

 

[Bigfoot]

Andy does what ever Andy wants to do... He knows by now, that nobody has the balls to hold him accountable.

IMO, FUAC is a Hillary Clinton Lite.
