Last night there were reports of over 2,000 ventilators provided to the state of New York from the federal government just sitting idling in a warehouse. Tucker Carlson was the only one in the media to mention this report, so there was no confirmation if that was a true story or not. Turns out Carlson was right. Cuomo the failure admitted today that yes, the state of New York is sitting on a stockpile of ventilators sent to the state from the federal government. Despite Cuomo’s constant whining about needed more ventilators for the US epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, Cuomo brushed off questions about why they are sitting idle in a warehouse by claiming “We don’t need them”. What the hell is this? Cuomo and De Blasio need to pay the price for letting New Yorkers die while sitting on a warehouse of ventilators. WHo knows what else De Blasio and Cuomo are hiding sitting a warehouse somewhere in New York.
Fail! Cuomo admits New York has a stockpile of unused ventilators from federal government |

Cuomo responded to a comment from President Donald Trump on Twitter that there were thousands of ventilators in New York not being used.
“Yes, they’re in a stockpile because that’s where they are supposed to be, because we don’t need them yet,” Cuomo said. “We need them for the apex, the apex isn’t here, so we’re gathering them in a stockpile.”
Cuomo’s comments demonstrate there is not an immediate shortage in ventilators in the city, despite alarming reports.
“We don’t need them today, because we’re not at capacity today, that’s why they’re not deployed because they’re not needed,” Cuomo said.
The governor has repeatedly complained that the federal government is not sending enough ventilators to New York.
On Tuesday, Pence said that the federal government had sent 2,000 ventilators to New York and an additional 2,000 more on Wednesday.
