“I agree with Gov. Cuomo,” de Blasio said after his speech to the US Conference of Mayors.“I interpret his remarks to say that an extremist attitude that continues the reality of violence in our communities or an extremist attitude that denies the rights of women does not represent the people of New York state's views,” he said. He urged mayors to follow NY’s lead in tackling “crippling inequality”...he described his own agenda of universal pre-K, paid sick leave and other social programs and wants other leaders to join him in lobbying Congress for more funds. “It’s time to stop shortchanging our cities. We know what’s best for our own people,” he asserted.

The race wars are on the verge of failure. Let the class wars begin!
Fearless-prediction-you-heard-it here-first-dep't: If Hillary doesn't run, DeBlasio will run for the WH...shaded of John Vliet Lindsay..who also couldn't clean the snow filled streets ( albeit that was Queens)..I figure he'll have been in City Hall less than 2 years..not really long enough to screw up the city..so he'll run..
Lindsay's slogan: "It's the second toughest job in America"
Liberalism, in a nutshell.
Hmmmm. Let’s see. The notion of “ideological purity.” Where have we heard that before?
Anybody who is not a Marxist is an extremist.
Pray America is Waking
“We know what’s best for our own people,”
God that’s a relief. I didn’t think anyone knew.
Well put.
Class war is exactly what this is, although somehow there are certain groups of the upper class who are exempt. This would include wealthy leftwing media people and sports stars, Dem political figures such as Obama, the heads of tech companies that support the Dems, etc. So you can get a pass from class warfare if you can prove your left-wing political credentials.
De Blabio's got that 73% win tattooed on his chest, painted on his bedroom celing, and laser-engraved on his wife's behind.
Yup---lock-stepping Dem party loyalty not seen since 1940's era Europe.
Have you seen this one?
The little schmuck Cuomo is going after James O’Keefe in the style of the IRS hitting conservative groups.
It’s about to get very ugly for conservatives in New York City & in the Upstate.
There will be “knockout” assaults on people in the streets or on the subway against people who appear to be “ringhtwing”. Those who commit these atrocities are now offically empowered to do so.
Political flash mobs will be texted into existence to attack businesses or organizations thought to be supporting conservatism. Again, they will be perceived as merely doing the will of the mayor and of the governor of New York.
Farfetched? Remember that Mayor “Che” De Blasio is a big fan of the Sandinistas. One of their hallmarks during Dannie Ortega’s dictatorship was the “turbas divinas” or divine mobs who carried out these kinds of assaults against the perceived enemies of the regime.
Meanwhile, as this starts to happen, NYC will degenerate into a devil’s s***hole of corruption & violence that will surpass the worst days of the seventies.
And when people start to flee, watch for a punitive “exit tax” to be imposed, as in Cuba in the early Castro days.
“We know what’s best for our own people,” he asserted.”
Fine. Use your own money to pay for it instead of a Federal handout.
Nice insights.
Bingo!
