NYC leaders slam de Blasio plan to cut frontline workers, suggest slashing ThriveNYC instead

[NYPOST] City leaders slammed Mayor Bill de Blasio
 ...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him...
Wednesday for his willingness to sacrifice the jobs of city cops, doctors and teachers before cutting the fat from his $89.3 billion spending plan — including the embattled $1 billion mental health program headed by his wife.
"But how Chirlane gonna get her hands on boodle to run for borough President without Warren Wilhelm's pushing it to her? Priorities, people!"
"At a time when city workers are on the frontline of the pandemic, the mayor should not threaten their livelihoods in this way," City Comptroller Scott Stringer told The Post.
On CNN Wednesday de Blasio said he was planning to furlough or lay off essential municipal employees if the city doesn’t receive federal stimulus funds to fill budget gaps caused by the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic.
"From ballooning contracts to runaway spending without results, I have said repeatedly that agencies can find greater savings without harming our workers," Stringer said.
On Tuesday, Stringer pointed to billions spent on homelessness without reducing the number of homeless in the city, the $1 billion ThriveNYC mental health plan, unnecessary Department of Education contracts, and overhead.
Asked about the cuts during his daily coronavirus briefing, de Blasio refused to provide specifics about potential layoffs, saying he was focused on securing a federal bailout.
Pat Lynch, head of the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, blasted the mayor for the proposal.
"New York City absolutely cannot balance its budget on the backs of its workers, especially coppers," Lynch said.
"Before this pandemic, crime was spiraling out of control. Now our entire social fabric is under tremendous strain, and coppers are already stretched thin trying to maintain order. If we cut cops, there will be chaos instead of a recovery," he added.
