The Department of Justice has decided not to investigate whether the civil rights of residents in New York’s government-run nursing homes were violated by Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s controversial admission policy related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a letter Friday, the DOJ’s Office of Legislative Affairs told US Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.), ranking member of that House Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis, that New York was off the hook in connection with potential violations of the Civil Rights of Institutionalized Persons Act.
In August, the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division requested information from New York in connection with a March 25, 2020, order from the state Department of Health that required nursing homes to admit “medically stable” COVID-19 patients discharged from hospitals.
It also sought records from Pennsylvania, Michigan and New Jersey, which adopted similar rules that the DOJ said “may have resulted in the deaths of thousands of elderly nursing home residents.”

OK, who didn't see this one coming?
Democratic immunity.
The Department of Just Us.
This is gonna really upset the kids of the nursing home patients that died. Hopefully will be hearing a big noise from them soon.
Talk about killer cults. If that doesn’t describe the dems then I don’t know what does.
It’s not a violation of your rights if the governor uses state powers to murder you. It’s for your own good.
Yes, I shall remember that upon King Cuomo's next edict ....
/sarc
Cuomo is a made man.
"I'm gonna find what the hell just happened here ... this committee is adjourned"
Isn’t it intetesting that, other than Janice Dean who works for FNC, we haven’t heard bupkis from any family of the dead...
I realize that thanks to Cuomo and the legislature families can’t pursue civil or criminal liability for the deaths of their lived ones, but why are they silent?
FWIW, I’m still thinking NYS goised the death toll up, not down.
Every death attributed to CoupFlu in NYS needs to be examined to see if the victim did in fact die of CoupFlu.
Our state isn’t the only thing in need of an audit.
“Talk about killer cults.”
They kill us coming and going.
Would you expect any other outcome? Just like Holder and Lynch they do not go after their own communist/Borg.
Obama’s department of Just Us is back. It actually never left.
Why isn’t this a state crime to be investigated by the NY State Police? Where is the federal jurisdiction??
Of course he does.
More proof of the criminal government by the democrat party and how they only use the law to destroy their enemies.
This is what CWII looks like, folks.
This is just like the Flint water pipe scandal and prosecutions should be brought as they were in that case. But of course the difference is that it was a Republican in that case and a Dem in this case.
Saw it coming a mile down the road, around the corner, over the hill and past the herd of sheeple crossing.
These are blue states. To lefties, killing Grandma is but a small price to pay in the furtherance of Communism. Eggs, omelets, etc.
Same with DOJ’s investigation of NJ, PA. and MI. Hummmm now what do they all have in common?
