That’s revenue that’s gone that pays for cops, firefighters, teachers, sanitation workers, it’s gone," de Blasio said. "And there’s no way I’m going to get it back.”

Notice who he thinks the money belongs to.

Is sleepy joe going to run on the promise that if he’s elected he will plunge the country into even more debt to bail out LA, NYC, Chicago? Seems like a pretty bad platform to run on. LOL

To hell with NYC. They elected the incompetent communist so let them suffer. Not sure why my money should bail those smug arrogant a..holes out. I’ve never found a group of people more self satisfied and with a higher opinion of themselves with less reason to be than New Yorkers.

Help the illegals become legal citizens; teach them a trade and then help them find a job.

Handouts don’t work.

Drop dead Blasio.

This is a shakedown.

This reminds me of an exgirlfriend asking me for money. I gave her some even though it was a lot for me. Then she kept asking me for more. I said no. She left.

Be careful what you wish for: Many of those libtard voters will flee to your state and turn it into the next libtard utopia — oh wait, you live in CO. Too late.

You know why states that are run by democrats are billions in the red? Obviously they mismanage the taxpayer money by using it to buy votes with giveaway programs but if you notice, most of the politicians and their cronies are all very wealthy. I surmise they got wealthy and continue to get wealthier by looting via kickbacks and monetary diversions from the large pools of taxpayer money they allocate to fund their useless, unworkable and unconditional programs. Kalifornia, NY, Illinois, Virginia, Oregon, Washington and a few other states NEED to be audited by someone other than their State’s Treasury’s office before any federal bailout money is wasted on them. I suspect the criminals in the state houses will just loot it too!

If there is going to be a bailout — and I am not saying there should be — there needs to be a lot of conditions: 20% reduction in non-essential workforce or equivalent cost reduction through wage and benefit concessions; 10% budget reduction for all non-essential departments and agencies; repeal of the no-bail laws; repeal of all sanctuary laws and policies; denial of all social-welfare benefits to ILLEGAL aliens; moratorium on the dumping of homeless people in update communities, etc. Oh, and DiBlasio can’t use his gas sucking motorcade to travel from the Mayor’s mansion to Queens to go to the gym.

NYC will continue to do what NYC does until they are forced to deal with their problems rather than get bailouts from others. As long as they can get others to cover for their incompetence, they will never change. Let them hit rock bottom. Force them to live in the real world. Maybe, just maybe, they will toss out the leftist grifters and put someone in charge that isn’t a woke moron.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has claimed that his city requires $7.5 billion in federal aid to get back on track...

Suck it up buttercup, tighten your belt and stand up.
