New York City Mayoral Candidate Bill de Blasio spent time as a left-wing supporter and activist for Nicaragua's ruling Sandinista party at a time when the Reagan administration characterized it as "tyrannical" and "Communist."
He also honeymooned in Cuba in violation of the United States' ban on travel to the Caribbean Communist stronghold,

This is the kind of “person” that thrills the people of NYC.
Won't take long at all, but NYC people demand all of this.
The obvious choice for Obama’s Ambassador to Cuba.
Give that man a Cigar!
Try de blasio for capistal murder. Then hang him.
Another lawless commie the Progressives have put in power.
Buck Sexton
heard it yesterday on Hannity radio show - pretty funny......
A communist nut, natch.
Where are you getting this from?
Lots of questionable scumbags get Federal security clearances, and his elected position as NYC Mayor would qualify him, if he even needed one in the first place
Do you have credible information that he was denied?
Just in case, although I’m sure you’d seen this.
Interesting!
Yes, I knew that from the time of his mayoral candidacy in 2013. The presumption here is that he changed his name for purely political reasons - much better to run in NYC with an Italian name than with a German name - since he had planned a career in leftist NYC electoral politics from a very young age.
Also knew about his trip to Nicaragua in support of the Sandanistas during the Reagan years. But the honeymoon in Cuba is news to me. Color his biography RED.
BTW, the posted article is from sometime last year, because DeB is referenced as a "mayoral candidate."
All I know is, I knew him for what he was...a can of crap best left unopened. I told and told my fellow teachers that he was NOT the savior they sought in reaction to the reign of terror imposed on us by Bloomberg, but they listened to his siren call-—and got royally screwed. He installed a schools chancellor who is a poster girl for Alzheimers and who lacks the wit or the will to effect any effective school reforms. He rammed through a disastrous teacher contract. And the fun has only begun, with Cuomo chiming in to further destroy teaching as a career in NYC.
I didn’t vote for him or his trashy family. I wouldn’t be that upset if he stepped into a manhole and finally met some of those alligators. He is an economy sized imbecile.
He’s far left-wing.
de Blasio:
U.S. Representative Charlie Rangel tapped de Blasio to be his campaign manager for his successful 1994 re-election bid. In 1997, he was appointed to serve as the Regional Director for the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for New York and New Jersey under the administration of President Bill Clinton. As the tri-state region’s highest-ranking HUD official, de Blasio led a small executive staff and took part in outreach to residents of substandard housing. In 1999, he was elected a member of Community School Board 15. He was tapped to serve as campaign manager for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s successful United States Senate bid in 2000.

One more commie democrat... creepy ...
You’re the exception to the rule that New Yorkers never met a communist who didn’t interest them.
