FTA:
So sorry we had to lock you up — please accept these parting gifts as an expression of our hope, it won’t happen again!
Mayor Bill de Blasio’s latest soft-on-crime initiative has workers stationed on Rikers Island presenting newly released jailbirds with free transit passes and two $25 debit cards each, The Post has learned.
Plans even call for the addition of prepaid, “burner”-style cellphones and drawstring bags for the ex-inmates to carry their swag, a source familiar with the program said.
Law enforcement officials were outraged over the swag bags.
Soft on crime, no bail money needed, buying votes, yup that’s Mayor Big Bird.
I’m waiting for his presser on the latest stabbings of people of the Jewish faith.
How is he going to explain it away?
