Mayor de Blasio publishes op-ed without naming donors who sought favors, slams 'bitter' media

Almost a year and a half after promising to detail a “stunning number of donors” who sought favors and didn’t get them, Mayor de Blasio published an op-ed containing only two new examples.

The op-ed — which does not name a single contributor, not even two he references who have since been arrested in a police corruption case — was published on the website Medium on the Friday ahead of the long Labor Day Weekend.

De Blasio is an unabashed socialist…a former Marxist…and this fact IS relevant. Because Marxists are not credible. To the Marxist, a person is of no more import than a pencil eraser, and truth doesn’t exist. Here’s some truth about De Blasio…he supported communist Nicaragua, even going so far as to break a U.S. embargo to visit the country and help them out. THIS is what happened in De Blasio's adopted marxist country in the decade he lent them support: (see communiststats.com for reference): In one brief decade, Sandinistas killed 3,000 political prisoners... jailed 11,000. And when you extrapolate the numbers toward the populations in the Eastern Bloc, it's easy to see that Nicaragua is just another marxist state without a soul. Prisoners were skinned alive; drawn & quartered; forced to watch wives and daughters sexually assaulted; caged in cubicles less than a square meter; "punished" via electric shock; deprived of food and water....Sandinista’s had their own trail of tears….imprisoning and forcibly relocating 35,000 native Americans. Sandinistas killed 110 strikers for wanting back pay. NONE of this was military-related. Mr. De Blasio has zero credibility. Ignorance is his greatest plea.

DeBlASSio is an unabashed Commie piece of excrement. He is out for himself, his real estate developer donors (who basically dictate what they want him to designate as theirs to develop), illegal criminal invaders, thugs & criminals, and far far down on the list, the good people of NYC. He has no idea of how to run a city, keeping in place destructive policies from Bloombutt. He is a corrupt liar, an incompetent, and a total sleaze. So is the current head of the City Council, Ms. Mark-Viverito. She is NOTHING but a total shill for funneling NYC money to her native Puerto Rico. She is responsible for a terrorist bomber, Oscar Lopez Rivera, who killed people, being in the Puerto Rican Day parade and RODE THE FLOAT WITH HIM! DeBlASSio also marched in that same parade. Haha, he thinks people are as stupid as he is---he kept a distance between himself and the float with the terrorist on it while marching, and that was supposed to reassure people he was not in sympathy with Rivera. There's a reason he is referred to locally as "The DOPE from Park Slope".

He is getting way more campaign contributions than his challengers. Sure, the developers aren't gonna let their boy down, after he is letting them make millions from developing everything in sight, building fake hotels which are immediately converted to homeless shelters (for BIG BUCKS rents from the city), wanting to develop precious park lands, etc. So I am very afraid we are in for another dose of this filthy scumbag. There is too much apathy from voters, and way too many gibsmedats getting all manner of freebies from NYC government.

Apathy, eh? Have a large number of voters in NYC just chosen to not give a damn? I hope that y’all don’t have to endure this pustule for another term.

Thanks for the good thoughts. I am surrounded by tons of Odungo voters, low info voters, illegals, and people who can't be bothered to perform their citizen duties, like vote. This is how we end up with refuse for a mayor like DeBlasio. Although I personally do MY due diligence about candidates and issues, I am in the minority in NYC. The libtards vastly outnumber conservatives. Wave the right freebie or even catchy slogan at them, and they'll do whatever you offer.

It is frightening, for example, to see high school kids singing the lyrics to disgusting songs advocating violence to women or police, and there they are, singing them over and over again. Why? A lot of the reason is, they like the catchy rhythm. I don't even know if they fully process the lyrics, but repeating them over and over again has GOT to have some kind of subliminal influence. That's how a catchy campaign slogan wins over imbeciles like this. They are more attuned to the sound and the rhythm, not the message.
