 And welcome back to news on I'm Miranda Khan right before the break. We were talking about the state of the economy You probably have noticed if you got into the grocery store the gas station and now we're expecting this new report To let us know whether or not that one trillion dollar infrastructure bill again This was a bipartisan effort is actually going to lead to more inflation Joining us now to discuss this and much more our back our guest Melissa Armo and Pastor Brian Gibson Thank you both for sticking around so pastor I want to give you adequate time to respond to what Melissa had to say and Steven Moore had to say How does the state of the economy look for you? moving forward Well, I think we're going to see massive inflation and if this bill's passed it's so Aggregious and and gigantic it's going to be paid for with generations to come We were talking earlier about about the moratorium on evictions And if you just look at that and look at the homeowners look at the landowners the people many of the middle class aren't necessarily all Upper-class people that are using these Properties for retirement properties that they're building some a future for themselves Just allowing people to stay there for free rent free It is observed and if you drive around America anywhere there are help wanted posters On every corner people are paying people to come in and to just apply for a job I thought about becoming a professional interviewer, right? I can go from day to day a lot of these places are paying two or three hundred bucks an Interview if you'll just come in an interview so that there's something the scripture says if you don't work You shouldn't eat and I believe that every American listen. I'm a church pastor I've done every job you could do in the church Every American should have to work as a receptionist in a church and have to file through people who are asking for benevolence Asking for help because what you'll discover there's a lot of good people that have fallen on hard times that need real help But typically over 80% of the people knocking on the church door to give me something for free are coming with the con To buy drugs to do something That you wouldn't want to spend your money on the same is true with these government programs And it's time for us to wake up. We've already done maybe permanent damage, but maybe we can minimize it at this point Well for the viewers that are watching this at home, we'd always love to know your thoughts on this Maybe you're being impacted by this. I mean, obviously this is a story that affects millions of Americans. Let us know You can do so by finding me at real more and a con hashtag share your voice Want to switch gears here as we mentioned earlier at the top of the show the majority of state assembly members are reportedly Preparing to start impeachment proceedings against New York governor Andrew Cuomo But even more significant to the situation of the people he's clung to basically throughout the scandal Even they appear to be abandoning him. We talked about it a little bit the other day Melissa when we had you on the show because you live in New York City With this latest information And now again, he's facing four potentially criminal charges from district attorneys after reviewing case evidence What do you think the odds are that he's going to be impeached? My guess is they're probably going to start impeachment proceedings at some point next week I don't think they're gonna wait long on this it may not be this week today's Thursday But he really has no allies left even in his own party And I think again it's political suicide at this point to side with him because we're in a me-too movement and you want to believe the women and I Think women have put up the things that he's accused of doing some of this groping and the touching I think for a long long time women have put up with men's behavior with that and not brought it up and Not that women ever should have put it put up with that type of behavior But in today's day and age women are speaking out and whether or not there's criminal charges Leticia Jane she didn't put criminal charges against him. They're not pursuing it I don't not sure why she's not pursuing it But they're leaving it up to the individual local boroughs to see if there's any evidence there and they may in fact pursue it The Manhattan da is asked for the the information that she investigated about pursuing some of the cases That's going to be a long process for him a costly process But I think the most important takeaway from this whatever happens to him whether he steps down whether he's impeached whether he's not impeached I think this is the end of governor Cuomo's political career Pastor do you agree with that assessment because I mean it it doesn't look good When you're being eaten by your own so to speak Sure, I think I saw there were 11 new allegations One of them was by a female state trooper that was on his detail claiming that he inappropriately touched your stomach and Maybe some other things and if you see a guy has gotten that calloused as to think that he can cross the line even with Someone that's an leo With with sexual harassment. You have a man that that really has went a long way I don't like to hang anyone until they're they're absolutely proven guilty, but let's say this you have enough allegations There's the old adage where there's that much smoke. There's probably some fire So we see the democrats now looking at what was their golden boy in the early onset of the virus Last year they're talking about a potential future president. This guy is the new messiah now We see him taking a very quick crash and burn. So yeah, I believe the impeachment proceedings are coming quickly I don't believe that he'll step down if you look at his character his demeanor The kind of man that he that he is but I think it would be in his best interest at this time to get out of the way But he won't do it No, he's gonna go down He's gonna go down swinging with everything he's got because he knows that this is the end of his political career He won't be able to run again for governor and when he won't be able to get the backing of the democrats He won't be able to run for president He is going down with everything he's got and that's one of the reasons why his brother Who's a cnn anchor isn't going to touch it either I mean, they're just going to lay low until they figure out what the next steps are I want to get to uh his brother in just a moment, but melissa you were talking about this You know being political suicide uh to be associated with him right now But there are new details that have emerged about one of Cuomo's top aides who happens to be a woman Melissa dorosa allegedly helping him bury the sexual harassment allegations So a new report claims that she played a very key role And the personnel file of one accuser an attempt to discredit her This was also found as an unlawful retaliation by the attorney general I want to get your thoughts on this because one of the things that I thought was kind of odd Is that and I'm not saying that some of these women were were apprehensive or scared But generally speaking if these allegations are true Odds are other people were aware of it and nobody said anything So I'm always a little suspect to say why now And what could happen to this aid of his if this is proven to be true? I don't know if she did anything that actually was illegal. It was unethical If she was hiding what was happening or putting pressure on these women to keep quiet Again, I don't know if she actually broke any laws But when you when you're that powerful again, he's been the governor for almost 10 years now going on 10 years You have a lot of allies. He didn't get to this place. Think about his history. Think about his father And again, we just talked about his brother on on national television every single night When you don't get to this place without powerful allies, there are people that know things about him that may Step forward if if they're really going to take him down Whether or not she'll flip and she'll admit to some of these things to support some of these cases If there are going to have criminal charges, I don't know But again, I don't know. I'm not an attorney if she actually did anything illegal I think it was the unethical though I do want to talk about his brother in the short time that we have remaining So according to report the investigation also found that he was involved in emails and text messages with the governor's strategy team Obviously, we've all seen the clips where he's praised his brother and his handling of coven Then all of a sudden has come out and said, you know, I can't talk about my brother and what's going on Because it'd be a conflict of interest faster What do you see the future holding for him chris Cuomo? Well, I think we see that that he was even helping craft statements for his brother through some of the communications out there It's obvious. He's in his brother's corner. He's not going to sell out his blood blood is thicker than water And as far as taking Cuomo as a serious Journalist in any shape form or fashion. I think that ship sailed a long time ago Um, we've seen the protection these men have had up to this point even with the nursing home fiasco Being covered up with the loss of life and I'll tell you that thing was criminal I think the the people in in high places. They're powerful friends made that go away So I think both the governor needs to go away and I think his brother Needs to step down and get out of the way too. He's biased. He can't be trusted He especially doesn't need to speak on this topic. He tried to whitewash it for a long time But now um, it's become obvious that it is what it is Well, so I'm going to have you respond to that coming up after the break I also speaking of cnn want to talk about cnn and other mainstream media outlets avoiding what was considered a top story On this very show Why didn't they cover it and here's a little hint it has to do with covet We're going to discuss that and more coming up in this edition of news on also We're going to share your voice when it comes to those new guidelines being issued by the cdc What do you think about all this? That's all coming up. We'll be right back
