Allegedly cleared of coronavirus by the CDC, CNN PrimeTime Chris Cuomo took his “official” first steps out on Monday his basement quarantine in weeks. Or at least that was what he and CNN wanted you to believe. You see, this “official” release came over a week after Cuomo was caught outside, with his wife and kids on Easter Sunday and berated the 65-year-old cyclist who called him out. Cuomo even admitted to the altercation during his April 13 radio show which resulted in a police report filed against him.

For weeks now, Cuomo has been exploiting his diagnosis to blast President Trump’s response to the crisis. But according to an April 14 New York Post report, Cuomo had not been trying to keep people safe. On the same SiriusXM show when he complained about his job at CNN, Cuomo whined that it kept him from acting aggressively towards people who called him out on his nonsense, citing an altercation with a “jackass loser fat-tire biker” to make his point.

Following that report, the cyclist came forward with the story of how he saw Cuomo and his family flouting social distancing guidelines on Easter Sunday (April 12) when he was supposedly in quarantine. After inquiring about why Cuomo was out of quarantine when he was sick, the CNN host started to yell at the man (something a person with a lung infection shouldn’t be doing).

It’s worth noting that the April 13 and 14 recordings of Cuomo’s radio show were never put out to listen on demand.
