CLAY: We know that Andrew Cuomo — the Cuomosexual Brigade has diminished, I would say, substantially — is now out of the New York governor’s mansion and immediately upon his departure, his successor announced that they have found 12,000 more covid deaths. As of Monday, Cuomo had reported that 43,400 people died of covid.

The new governor says the actual number is 55,400. She says, “There’s a lot of things that weren’t happening. I’m going to make them happen. We’re releasing more data than had been released before publicly, so people know the nursing home deaths and the hospital deaths are consistent.”

There was a large discrepancy found from people that Cuomo was trying to keep from tallying because he didn’t want to hurt his overall book sales when he got $5 million to write about what a hero he was in responding to covid. And now, by the way, he’s also lost his Emmy. Your reaction as a New Yorker, Buck Sexton.

BUCK: The new governor is not much better than the old governor when you look at the policies.

CLAY: (laughs) Yeah.

BUCK: But I don’t think she’s gonna be groping female state troopers or doing some of the stuff that Cuomo was accused of. But that was by far a lesser issue for me. People hear that and say, “What do you mean?” It’s a lesser issue than the catastrophic decision made to send covid-positive seniors into nursing homes where we still now look at this, and it’s either New York or New Jersey, which everyone has to think of —

CLAY: It’s one conglomerate, yeah.

BUCK: It’s northern New Jersey, the New York metropolitan area. The New York City metropolitan area was the epicenter of the whole covid pandemic in the beginning, the worth per capita death rate of anywhere in the country within — one of the worst in the world, if you were to separate out New York and New Jersey. And think of how obtuse it was, Clay. He got an Emmy! He got a multimillion-dollar book deal!

CLAY: (laughing) I know.

BUCK: The only thing weirder than Cuomosexuals were the Faucisexuals because there were some of them, too. (impression) “Fauci’s so hot, look at him with those glasses.”

CLAY: He said he wanted Brad Pitt to play him.
