Just six months after he resigned from office in disgrace over sexual harassment allegations, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has appeared to be hinting at a political comeback. The Democrat made a campaign-like stop at a Brooklyn church Sunday, delivering a speech in which he condemned cancel culture." The public appearance, his first since leaving office, came a week after Cuomo's campaign launched a digital and television advertising campaign pushing a similar message: He was driven from office unfairly. Cuomo quoted the Bible several times as he described his travails then went on the offensive to attack the political sharks in Albany who, he said, smelled blood and exploited the situation for political gain.
