I wonder how many dyed-in-the-wool union cops voted for this commie?
Maybe Union members (white, Hispanic and asian) will begin to abandon the Democrat party now?
No one alive today will ever trust the government
and the DO”J” again. EVER.
I am feeling a minor bit of Schadenfreude for the union leaders. They’ve backed the Leftists for generations and now, when the agenda demands they “sacrifice” for “the glorious cause”, they realize they’ve been thrown under the bus.
What’s a few dead uniforms and some somber music for an hour, when The Glorious Cause is advanced by their
“heroic sacrifices”?
The union rank-and-file better wake up to reality, that they are and have never been anythign else, but pawns of the Left.
As someone who has suffered the consequences, do not fight with New York unions...
“the city’s highest-profile police union official focused his outrage on the mayor.”
The resolution of this problem is easy to see.
DeBlasio will offer the police union more of the taxpayers money, and the police union will take it.
The taxpayer will not be any more safe and secure. The police wont work any harder. The criminal class won’t be held any more accountable.
A walk-through Big Bird De Blasio's chicken coop.
Once served as Public Advocate under the name "Warren Wilhelm."
Personally placed a late-night "fixer" call to the NYPD following the arrest of his political pal, Bishop Orlando Findlayter.
Ordered police department to withhold the bishop’s arrest report.
Has barred the press from a number of speaking engagements.
Snubbed pro-Israel AIPAC--deleted speech from his public schedule.
Insists on taxing the wealthy for pre-K, even though state aid was offered.
Refuses to answer questions he finds inconvenient.

Chalk up another Obama Administration success story.
The Glorious Revolution! The commie lovers wanted the nation to rise up and...and...oops, the unions were supposed to join them la revolucion. Now they are turning on their beloved masters.
Hey De Blasio! It is a long standing and unwritten code of tyrants:
Never, ever, ever screw over the Praetorian Guard.
Idiot!
The business leaders of NYC have to call for the resignation of Bill deBlasio and the repudiation of AL Sharpton.
Their reign of terror has gone on long enough.
Donald Trump, how about leading the charge? The city you save might be your own?
This statement may cost him his job, but it was necessary to declare war. de Blasio will likely fire him, which will result in a whopper of a lawsuit, and from that moment the war will become hot.
Importantly, there are no limits to such a war, and it might even turn into the police ignoring a real threat to de Blasio’s life. Even Roman Caesars were taken down when they threatened their Praetorian Guards.
someone pass the popcorn...
"It's unfortunate that in a time of great tragedy, some would resort to irresponsible, overheated rhetoric that angers and divides people,"
Two words: pot, kettle
