Crom’s Crommentary: Former NY Gov Cuomo Criticizes DA Alvin Bragg’s Trumped-Up Charges

Mar 27, 2023

Live from Music Row, Monday morning on The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy – broadcast on Nashville’s Talk Radio 98.3 and 1510 WLAC weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. – host Leahy welcomed the original all-star panelist Crom Carmichael to the studio for another edition of Crom’s Crommentary.

CROM CARMICHAEL:

Michael, there’s a very interesting article in The Western Journal about Andrew Cuomo criticizing Alvin Bragg. Have you seen that? On the networks, ABC, NBC, and CBS where the former governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, when he would speak during COVID, which was regularly, the media in this country hung on his every word and they thought he was the most brilliant person on the planet.

Maybe the most brilliant person to ever live on the planet. They treated him with great deference. They thought he would be the next presidential candidate for the Democrat Party. And there weren’t enough nice words that they could come up with about Andrew Cuomo. But Andrew Cuomo is now saying Alvin Bragg, what he’s doing is, I don’t understand.

And then I’m quoting here. I don’t understand why Bragg is putting such emphasis on this case. This law in the state is a misdemeanor. And it has also passed the statute of limitations as a misdemeanor. And so Cuomo is actually coming out criticizing Alvin Bragg. But guess what? The media doesn’t think that Cuomo’s words are worth reporting.

Alvin Bragg now has a terrible problem on his hands because he has set expectations and he realizes that if he tries to fulfill those expectations, there’s a good chance he’ll end up in front of Congress. He’ll have to produce information. And he may end up getting lying before Congress. And if you get another Republican administration, he could be the one who’s in the box.

Listen to today’s show highlights, including this Crommentary:

Aaron Gulbransen: Tennessee House Should Have Introduced a ‘Clean School Choice Bill’

Aaron Gulbransen: Tennessee House Should Have Introduced a ‘Clean School Choice Bill’

Apr 18, 2024

Aaron Gulbransen, executive director of the Tennessee Faith and Freedom Coalition, said the Tennessee House of Representatives should have introduced a “clean” universal school choice bill instead of attaching additional incentives not particularly related to school choice to the bill.

While the governor’s school choice bill in the House includes additional incentives, the Senate’s version solely focuses on the governor’s proposal.

Michael Patrick Leahy, editor-in-chief and CEO of The Tennessee Star, said as a plaintiff in the case seeking to compel the Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) to release the manifesto left behind by the Covenant School shooter, he believes the the full manifesto should be released – not just the “documents in the car” found on the day of the shooting which Metro Legal suggests would satisfy the plaintiffs in the case.

Founder of Tea Party Nation Judson Phillips: 15 Years Later, the Tea Party Movement Was an ‘Abject Failure’

Founder of Tea Party Nation Judson Phillips: 15 Years Later, the Tea Party Movement Was an ‘Abject Failure’

Apr 17, 2024

Judson Phillips, founder of Tea Party Nation, said 15 years after the Tax Day Tea Party, the movement’s effect on fiscal responsibility, limited government, and free markets in federal politics has been “an abject failure.”

“The Tea Party movement was an abject failure. There’s just no other way to put it. Look at where we are today. When the Tea Party movement started, it was triggered by Obama’s $787 billion stimulus package. Today, that’s a rounding error. The deficit was $10 billion when Obama took over in January 2009. Today, it’s $34 trillion. It’s going up by a trillion dollars every hundred days, and that rate is accelerating,” Phillips explained on Monday’s edition of The Michael Patrick Leahy Show.
