CNN’s Chris Cuomo put the fake in fake news with a staged video showing him emerge from his basement after ‘completing’ his coronavirus quarantine. The truth is that the younger brother of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo broke quarantine days earlier, exposing the public (and his son) to the deadly virus that infected him. A wounded warrior who contributes to FOX News took the CNN anchor to task by slamming him on Twitter. This Retired Marine was not impressed with Cuomo’s clearly staged video.

Chris Cuomo’s Coronavirus Diagnosis

Cuomo continued broadcasting his show while he was recovering from coronavirus. The CNN anchor made it appear that he was isolated in his basement as his body battled COVID-19.

In reality, he not only left his basement but he also went outside his home with his wife, children, and another woman and headed to a property in the Hamptons. When he was confronted by someone who recognized him, Cuomo lost his temper. As if to punctuate the incident, Cuomo then ranted about the Hamptons incident again later on the radio. 

BACKSTORY: Chris Cuomo And George Stephanopoulos Break Quarantine, Expose Public To Coronavirus

The CNN anchor, who has been compared to Fredo Corleone in “The Godfather,” put the public at risk by leaving his home.

His older brother has had a heavy hand with forcing New Yorkers to stay home, especially if they have tested positive, but that didn’t matter to the Cuomos. But younger brother Chris didn’t feel the rules should apply to him.

And Governor Cuomo still has yet to address the issue of his younger brother violating his orders. 

In his staged video of Chris emerging from his basement, Cuomo claimed he had been dreaming for weeks about leaving the basement following a COVID-19 diagnosis.

It was more than a dream as Cuomo had not only left the basement, but he also left his home while he was recovering. He was soliciting attention and pity from his viewers.

That video is below.

But Cuomo’s video emerging from the basement would not go unanswered. The tweet below from Wounded Warrior Johnny Jones is going to leave a mark!

FOX’s Retired Marine Calls Out CNN’s Chris Cuomo

Staff Sergeant Johnny (Joey) Jones (Ret.) served in both Iraq and Afghanistan. The Marine lost both of his legs above the knee when he stepped on an IED in Afghanistan in 2010. He also sustained severe damage to both wrists and right forearm. 

The Retired Marine joined FOX News as a contributor in July 2019. And this Fox News contributor didn’t take too kindly to the CNN host’s drama-seeking video of his quarantine exit Monday.

As a Wounded Warrior, he had no patience for Cuomo’s pity party.

After sacrificing so much for our country, Staff Sgt. Jones didn’t have any fanfare when he left Walter Reed. Unlike Cuomo, he wasn’t seeking attention and didn’t violate any orders.

Jones retweeted Cuomo’s video with a comment about returning to Walter Reed and staging a video with a prepared script as the CNN host did. 

The mainstream media is unlikely to ask Governor Andrew Cuomo about his brother’s staged video and how he violated the stay at home order. The rules don’t apply to the Cuomos and the media won’t hold them accountable. 

Good on Johnny Jones for calling him out. And God bless you for your service and sacrifice.
