Reminds me of the Chicagoans that chased the then-House Speaker Dan Rostenkowski down the street for something or another.
He ended up in Club Fed, and naturally, WJC pardoned him.

He claims a shortage of money. But there's paradoxically PLENTY of money to spend on housing/feeding/educating/medically treating ILLEGAL CRIMINAL INVADERS, plenty of money to waste on homeless shelters sneaked overnight into affluent neighborhoods (the better to bring anything above and beyond down to mediocrity across the board, the Commie way), plenty of money to waste on worthless welfare programs, etc.
This guy is an out and out crook, as corrupt and basically dishonest as the day is long. I'm glad I missed his recent visit to my synagogue, because I'm sure I would have spit in his general direction. I heard it was very poorly attended and I'm sure his fake honey toned words fell on a very unbelieving audience.
De Blasio hates America.
Vickie Paladino-— you are a diamond. You cut like one too. A1 baby.
This is what more of the cultural Marxists & their media need! Sustained berating!
That New Yorker shouldn’t have been surprised.The NYPD has known from the start that Wilhelm holds them in absolute contempt.
“——homeless shelters sneaked overnight into affluent neighborhoods——”

Now THAT’S very interesting——what was the reaction of the people in those neighborhoods?

Maybe she's got relatives in the NYPD.
You mean when they found out there would be a homeless shelter SNEAKED into their neighborhood, that they had been LIED TO about it?
From NY1:
"Residents of a Bronx neighborhood say they feel that they have become the victims of a classic bait-and-switch that will result in homeless families living nearby. Bronx Reporter Erin Clarke filed the following report.
Another building is going up along a bustling strip of Broadway in Kingsbridge.
The community was told it would be market-rate housing that would complement a commercial boom in the area.
Then Friday: "The city calls and says, 'We're putting a homeless shelter in there,'" Bronx State Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz said. "That means we were lied to."
The building developer, the Stagg Group, cut a deal with the city as part of the mayor's plan to house homeless people in their neighborhoods of origin instead of hotels and large shelters.
"Why are you picking on certain neighborhoods where they're middle income or lower income?" one local resident said.
Department of Homeless Services officials said there are 359 people from the area in shelters across the city.
Some of them will be among the 81 families who are now scheduled to move in the area next month.
"There's a lot of residents that are homeowners, they're co-op owners here," one local man said. "For some reason, they may feel that a shelter around here may bring down the value of their property."
Apparently, this isn't the first time the Stagg Group pulled this trick.
"It's something that, unfortunately, they've become known for, and it's really very disappointing because they are doing a lot of building in the Bronx," Dinowitz said.
Community leaders in the northeast and west Bronx said they've long been at odds with the Stagg Group for misleading residents.
In a statement to NY1, a Stagg official did not address those accusations, but said the group "...gave very serious consideration to allowing our building to be used to help these families and children. Furthermore, we feel it's the right thing to do."
Not every Kingsbridge resident is against the decision. "I'm very happy that this is a homeless shelter," one woman said. "Homeless people get demonized in the press, and I think that this neighborhood will be friendly to them." [obvious libtard]
Still, there's worry about the impact of moving more families into Kingsbridge.
"You just can't make a decision…and not consider the other ramifications for the community, whether it's the schools, whether it's transportation, whether it's other infrastructure," Dinowitz said.
That issue is among many to be discussed at a public meeting scheduled for July 27."
“Maybe she’s got relatives in the NYPD.” — good thought. That would be one of the few New Yorkers speaking up for the police.
This is a wonderful example of the current state of the nation.
These traitors refuse to answer to Americans, and we’re not making them. They are in power and we can complain, but that’s about it. Even where we are in power, traitors in our ranks bind us.
Looks like the mayor is playing footsies with this Stagg Group.
I guarantee there is a quid pro quo.
The builders here in MA use the 40B threat to get virtually anything that they want.

I’ve been living in Queens since I first moved to New York in 1982. It used to be a solidly Red county for POTUS elections. It’s still a great place to live, but is much more Liberal, as many of the older White people have died off, and have been replaced by Latino and Asian immigrants, who work hard, keep their homes nice, but are not Conservative in their political views, but also not far Left either.
But there’s still plenty of people like Miss Paladino here.
I would LOVE for someone to drop a giant banner down the huge wall that runs along the Grand Central Parkway in the Briarwood-Kew Garden Hills area with a photo of Trump giving a thumbs up, with the caption “honk if you love Queens”.
