De Blasio ‘getting back at us’ by not plowing: UES residents

It really is a tale of two cities — this time with the tony Upper East Side getting the shaft!

Huge swaths of the UES had been not been plowed by early Tuesday evening, according to the city’s own map of snow-plower activity.

“He is trying to get us back. He is very divisive and political,” said writer and life-long Upper East Side mom Molly Jong Fast of Mayor de Blasio.

“By not plowing the Upper East Side, he is saying, ‘I’m not one of them.’ But we have everyone in this area on the Upper East Side. We have rich people, middle class people, and housing projects. We have it all.”

Maybe it’s just because Hannity lives on the UES.

Sound like he’s a graduate of the Jarrett School for Political Payback.

If DeBlasio was a Republican, reporters would find the one elderly person who died of a stroke when the ambulances were delayed by unplowed streets, and call DeBlasio a murderer.

Thanks for posting this, I’m laughing evilly! We notice he plowed east east of first, which includes the Gracie Mansion area.

Welcome to communism, NYC!

A good Fascist knows, if you want to start a ‘scandal’ that will get the attention of the greatest number of idiots, include the emotion of Envy.

If all the millionaires left NYC, it would some sort of post-apocalyptic hell hole. The parasites wouldn’t be able to survive.

IIRC, Sean lives on Lon-Giland.

New York is really doing its darndest to drive out its taxpaying citizens. It’s unfortunate, because too many of them vote for this crud and then are surprised when they get it and its not some academic game where they get to speechify and play radical like they’re still in college, but it doesn’t really affect them. Cuomo and Blasio are going to play for real, and that will drive these wanna-be radicals into other states for them to start their same old crud, because they never connect the dots or at least won’t ever admit that this is what their politics lead to when someone really means it for a change.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the least. I didn’t see the particular streets, but the Upper East Side has a few mega-rich streets and then the rest ranges from glass boxes from the 70s and 80s now lived in by young recent-grad upwardly mobile roommates working downtown, to miscellaneous modest buildings with working class Hispanics and struggling knowledge workers. So de Blasio’s zeal to punish may not work out well for him.

I wonder how many of the people quoted in that story voted for the dick?

““DeBlasio is trying to hurt the more wealthy people by ignoring us but there’s no logic to that,” Cisse said.”

Left wing elitists are morons. They think that the Marxist crocodile won’t eat them. You leftist idiots got what you wanted - a commie radical. Deal with it. Maybe you can hire right wing death squads to create political balance. I hear there’s contras in Nicaragua looking for work. Dial 911-OPENBORDERS.

If you missed the SciFi episode of either “Night Gallery” or a similar show (perhaps “Tales from the Dark Side),in the 80’s or 90’s., then you don’t remember the story “RED SNOW”.

Well now you do!

RED MAYOR!
RED SNOW!
RED SNOW JOB!

Communist payback is a bitch and you are now DeBlasio’s “BITCH”.
