[NYPOST] Putting an entirely new spin on the concept of "public campaign finance," 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... is ruthlessly exploiting his official powers to get First Lady Chirlane McCray elected as Brooklyn borough president in 2021‐ with a pretty obvious eye on moving the family back into Gracie Mansion eight years later.
Most despicably, the failed ThriveNYC project (which has already cost taxpayers around $1 billion) is a central part of the scam.
McCray’s ThriveNYC mental-health and wellness podcast just launched ‐ in partnership with a Brooklyn-based cultural nonprofit that took in $1.2 million in city funding in 2019.
For the first show, she brought in recent Yale grad Dante de Blasio (no longer employed by Bill de Blasio’s presidential campaign) to serve as guest co-host.
It’s "All in the Family," de Blasio style. Or maybe the Corleones?
As veteran local pol Sal Albanese tweeted, "This is an obscene use of taxpayer $ for blatant political purpose."
It’s also shameless, since Thrive was plainly intended to showcase McCray’s leadership ‐ but wound up showcasing her inability to manage anything.
By all accounts, the mayor is looking to cash in political chits left and right to install McCray as Brooklyn beep. Hey, someone has to support the family after term limits force him off the public payroll on Jan. 1, 2022.
This cynical abuse is of a piece with the $358,000 security bill footed by taxpayers during Bill’s ridiculous presidential bid ‐ which includes the $490 tab for seven cops to tag along as the mayor watched his beloved Boston Red Sox play the Angels while he was in Los Angeles taping a political podcast shortly before he folded his prez campaign.

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... ’s failed presidential campaign is more than $22,000 in the red because of legal fees related to a federal fundraising probe, new election filings show.
The mayor, who raised $1.4 million during his failed White House run, only has $8,022 left on hand in the federal campaign account ‐ while owing $30,350 to the Washington, DC-based law firm of Trister, Ross, Schadler & Gold for legal services.
The firm billed him for legal work on a Federal Election Commission probe into alleged fundraising violations by his campaign.
Council members Joe Borelli (R-Staten Island) and Robert Holden (D-Queens) said that news of the debt explains why de Blasio didn’t use campaign funds to pay off $358,000 in costs racked up by his NYPD security detail racked on the campaign trail.
[KSL] Should Utah Sen. Willard Mitt Romney, aka Pierre Delecto ...former governor of Massachussetts, the Publican nominee for president in 2012, now Senator from Utah. He is the son of the former governor of Michigan, George Romney, who himself ran for president after saving American Motors from failure, though not permanently. Romney has a record as a successful businessman, heading Bain Capital, and he rescued the 2002 Winter Olympics from the midst of bribery and mismanagement scandals. He is currently a trans Republican and a member in good standing of the Never Trump Party, attempting to assume the mantle of the late John McCain... attempt another shot at the White House ‐ but this time on the independent ticket, with former New York City Mayor Michael Nanny Mike Bloomberg ...former Republican mayor of New York. He tried to take the credit for Rudy Giuliani's actions in the wake of the 9-11 attacks. He was known as Nanny Bloomberg for his war on 32-ounce Slurpees. Nanny is a candidate for the Dem presidential nomination in 2020. He was born on Valentine's day, 1942, which makes him 77.94333 years old, which is pretty ripe. Mike has lots of money, some of which he spends on grass roots organizations pushing for common sense gun laws along the same lines as his common sense Slurpee laws.... as his running mate?

Of course the combination of a fascist Nanny state proponent with a doofus would be a perfect ticket for the globalist graft machine.
If elected you can look forward to federal power punishing the people and ever-expanding wars overseas. We will be starved so that they can start trouble that they have no intention of ending.

"The Bulwark": Oligarch Pierre Omidyar's tool. Meal ticket for 3rd-rate spawn of mid-20c neoconservative publicists (Irving K, Lucianne G).
"The Atlantic": formerly-great long-form journal, now widow-of-Oligarch Steve Jobs's tool and meal ticket for once-admirable, now shilling-for-oligarchs journos.
"The Washington Post": Oligarch Jeff Bezos's tool and meal ticket for 100s of Trump-obsessed journos and corrupt Deep Staters feeding them dezinformatsiya.
"Bloomberg News": Oligarch Mini-Mike B's tool for spreading lies, spin and baksheesh to hournos and congressmen in exchange for endorsements and puff pieces to help him buy the Dem nomination.
Oligarchs 'r' US(A).
What, ultimately, does it mean to say that America today has a "free press"? In what sense?

More fun with Oligarchs 'r' US(A):
GOOG and FB aren't "platforms"; they're media companies that dominate digital ad spend.
And Time magazine has just been bought by the chief email-spam oligarch Marc Benioff.

That’s what author, Maryland business executive and former U.S. Senate candidate Neal Simon wrote in his article he shared with Lee Lonsberry on KSL NewsRadio's show Live Mic.
[BREITBART] AUDIENCE MEMBER: President Trump’s Department of Justice recently got involved in the trial of Roger Stone — a close confidant of Trump’s. This led to four of the federal prosecutors to either withdraw from the case or resign from the department altogether. Many see this as a further abuse of presidential power that challenges our very ideas of what the justice system should be. As president, how will you restore the barriers between the Department of Justice and the Oval Office?
JOE BIDEN: First of all, for years and years I was chairman of the [Senate] Judiciary Committee. I have never, never, never — including when I got elected as a kid at 29-years-old when Nixon was president — this is not an exaggeration that no one, no one has abused that office or weaponized it, flat out weaponized it. And he’s made it real clear that whatever you do, it’s almost like the biblical phrase that whatever you do in my name to help me, you will get pardoned. That’s the message being sent. And the idea that Roger Stone… who is convicted of lying to federal prosecutors and a judge said, “whoa, whoa, whoa, I’m not going to listen to what the Justice Department has to say now, I’m sentencing this guy now to 40 months.” Guarantee you, he’s going to be pardoned… what’s the message about? Don’t worry, do anything illegal for me and you’re okay, I will pardon you. No one has ever weaponized it before like this.
Number one, the Justice Department is not the president’s private lawyer, it’s the people’s lawyer and I will never direct the Justice Department to who they should or should not indict and under what circumstances they should or should not. That is an independent judgment to be made. My son — my deceased son — was the Attorney General of the United States and before that, he was a federal prosecutor in one of the largest office’s in the country in Philadelphia.

Keep him in and rub his senile corrupt face in every pile of shit. He's enjoyed it til now, let him, "Dr. Jill", and his Hoover Snowblower reap ALL the rewards these assholes earned. Make him a historical national laughingstock and hang his rep around Obama's neck. NO sympathy

Isn't that what the Dems' nomination process is all about? Giddes' partner: "That's the Shitshow, Jake" Neil Kinnock's imitator: "That's the Shitshow, Hunny"

I had Bee.
Frank, that's funny.
I don't know who all watched the debate post-game, but there was the required What Do the Kids Think? segment. Set was a relaxed hotel-bar like scene, lady was going about asking the young'ens why they are there and who they support.
Came to one gal and she was like, "I'm here to caucus for one of the candidates."
[BREITBART] CAVUTO: Let’s leave the words aside, whether you like his style or not, tweets or not, or comments or not, he’s delivered the goods for a lot of African-Americans. Does he not with record-low unemployment levels?… You don’t think that’s something that’s constructive?
REP. CLYBURN: No, because it’s not true. I’m saying that the African American unemployment is not the lowest it’s ever been unless you count slavery… We were fully employed during slavery. So, it all depends how you measure this up. "Thanks to our Democrat Masters"

..although the benefits of not working and deriving an income for voting themselves other peoples' money is attractive to numerous sectors of the population regardless of color.

Well, that explains why we have two words there, employment and enslavement. Seems I remember some NBA millionaire saying he was basically a slave...

So he's basically saying that being a slave wasn't so bad. Idiot!

Bingo.
Folks on the right who think that Trump will get substantially more of the black vote because "Jobs!", really don't understand how many in that cohort simply don't think in those terms.
Some may even resent Trump, because improved employment numbers mean that your social worker or benefits tech will be saying: "Darnell. There's plenty of jobs out there now. Why are you still unemployed?"
For normies, work may mean a dignified existence.
For people accustomed to gaming the system, it just means less Free Shit, and more hassle.
Far from applauding Trump, many of them may be cursing him for this state of affairs.

Charger called it. It's not about changing the players, it's about changing the game. Most of those involved in serving the welfare culture don't want that either.

The opinion polls seem to indicate that among the urban Afr-Amer male population, there are many more normies than was previously assumed. Certainly many more than that arrogant little shit, Mini Mike, believes.
It will not take very many of these normies to double Trump's vote tally among Afr-Amers, which would seal his victory in the swing states this fall.
#15
Some may curse him yes, but I think far more don't. Trump hasn't arranged government make work jobs the way Obama did, he improved things so that jobs came to those wanting them. Even if its just 30%, it makes a huge difference vote wise. One thing is certain, the amount of people here in the oilfield admitting to supporting anyone but Trump is tiny. Hard to want to vote for someone who plans openly to kill your job.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
