Instead, he urged people to solely resort to the \u201cfacts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to make sure people have all the facts, the facts, the information. This past year, there is a toxic political environment and everything gets politicized,\u201d Cuomo stated. \u201cThere is political spin and then there are facts. Two very different things, and I just want to be sure people have facts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This came amid growing calls for his resignation after one of his top aides admitted his administration willingly covered up data of nursing home deaths.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/gop-resolution-demands-boycott-of-beijing-olympics\/\">GOP Resolution Demands Boycott Of Beijing Olympics<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2181178,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/dzm0ugdauank9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/GettyImages-1213725764-675x437.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"Gov.
