De Blasio Violated The Rules By Making Cops Help His Daughter Move
[Hot Air] Hey, did you hear that New York City Mayor (and 2020 presidential candidate) Bill de Blasio’s daughter Chiara got herself a new place to live in the Big Apple? She’s taken up residence with her parents at Gracie Mansion. Good for her. The real estate market there is a real bear. But if you didn’t hear about it, that might be because she moved out in the dead of night. And she had plenty of help with the move, coming in the form of some of Hizzoner’s personal security detail from the NYPD.

As you might imagine, dispatching some of New York’s finest to go carry your daughter’s couch up to her new room is not only frowned upon but is strictly barred under New York ethical conduct rules. The New York Daily News explains.

Both the Mayor and the police have an explanation for why this happened, neither of which looks terribly convincing. De Blasio is saying that it’s not a violation because the cops "volunteered" to do it. First of all, even if that’s true, when your boss also happens to be the Mayor (and in charge of the police) and "suggests" his daughter needs some help, are you inclined to say no? And even if they cheerfully volunteered to do so without being asked, as explained in the excerpt above, you can’t use a city resource (the police, in this case) for a non-city purpose. They also saved money by not having to pay movers, so that could be considered a "private gain."

#1 The motive is vety simple.

You conquer your enemy and subject them to servitude
Just like when Hillary made Marines serve coffee and when Pelosi made the airforce her personal air taxi.

They purposely do this for nepharious reasons to those who protect the Constitution or enforce our lawd that they hate.

#3 In most non-blue controlled cities, this would be enough to kick him out of office.
