Sources at the Mayor's Office saidthe mayor's wife also has at least another six staff who are not named
on the official public roster. Her total workforce numbers 14 with a hefty price tag of $2 million.

McRay's pricey team includes $150,000-a-year senior adviser Dabash Negash (pictured) recruited in April
- at the height of the pandemic, just one week after de Blasio announced a hiring freeze to help close a $7.4 billion budget deficit.

These two commies have city money pouring in......faster than they can find places to hide it.

DeBlob put his wife in charge of four (4) govt-funded agencies that have the most potential for looting

(A) <><> mental health reform (she "forgot" where she put $800 million tax dollars)

(B) <><> coronavirus racial equity agency.....

(C) <><> heads the tax-funded Mayor’s Task Force on Racial Inclusion

(D) <><> Upon taking office, he gave her "The Mayor's Fund for NYC" which receives non-stop tax dollars to
"do-good" for the city (and to finance their political ambitions).

THERE IS NO OVERSIGHT----they can loot and pillage tax dollars at will.

His #one advisor, Mayor de Blasio’s wife says eliminating NYPD would be ‘nirvana, a utopia’
BizPac Review ^ | June 11, 2020 | Jon Dougherty / FR Posted by kevcol

“That would be like a nirvana, a utopia that we are nowhere close to getting to,” McCray noted in a TIME100 Talks discussion. McCray’s comments come after elected leaders in Minneapolis have caved to demands by Left-wing groups to disband that city’s police department in the wake of the death of George Floyd at the hands of a few bad cops last month.

The progressive NYC Mayor and his Black wife were jeered and booed,
told to "get the **** of the stage" at a recent BLM rally.

Really, people. Did the Black woman HAVE to wear an old shirt to the rally
emblazoned with watermelon slices as a reminder black lives didnt matter?

And despots wonder why they end up staring into a basket while a giant blade shimmers above their neck.

The duo were using the Clinton Playbook-——he got in as Mayor——next step presidency for him as she got into the US Senate.....then her turn as president.
Unfortunately, it did not work out the way they planned......snx.

He bombed as a prez candidate-——and she’s been playing hanky panky w/ hundreds of millions of tax dollars on all the “do-good” city committees hubby put her in charge of....w/ no oversight.

Well, (snx) they DO need tons of money for their high-falutin’ ambitions.

BACKSTORY-——he was parading her around the city as he conducted his official duties.

Then Police Commissioner Braxton advised him not to bring her along to a critical cops’ meeting.

The DeB’s were highly insulted.....they could do anything they wanted....and summarily fired the P/C.

Its been downhill ever since......and now this......brought down by BLM.

Where has $850m gone?

Bill de Blasio’s wife can’t account for staggering amount of taxpayer money that the NY Mayor gave her for mental health project!

Chirlane McCray was assigned a $850million budget for her ThriveNYC program!

But records show scheme has failed to keep track of what it spent the money on.

The small amount of data that was collected shows it fell far short of targets.

Despite that, organizers have expanded the budget to $1 billion over five years.
