joining me now new york state

you used to work for governor
cuomo and you've been open about
feeling uncomfortable around him
even after you left the job.

who came forward.
it took an incredible amount of
courage to report their

was really what most of us knew
to be true, that the governor
has fostered and upheld a toxic
work environment that is harmful
to women.
his staff has perpetuated this
toxic environment.

all know is there were
violations of both...
