Ex-Mayor Bill de Blasio announces new girlfriend on eve of Valentine’s Day

Former Mayor Bill de Blasio revealed Thursday that he is in a new romantic relationship — with a raven-haired progressive pundit decades his junior, who shares his lefty views and his desire to “cuddle.”

The 63-year-old Democrat is romantically involved with liberal activist Nomiki Konst, 41, and plans to spend Valentine’s Day snuggling with her and sipping wine.

“Nomi and I have started a really lovely relationship, just in time for Valentine’s Day. We’ve known each other for a long time and are very kindred souls,” he texted The Post — adding a red heart emoji.

“We’re going to cuddle up and watch romantic movies and drink Greek wine, in honor of Nomi’s heritage,” he said of their plans for the lover’s holiday.

Konst is known for her work on the progressive news commentary show “The Young Turks.”

She once interviewed the former Mayor and his now estranged wife, New York’s former First Lady Chirlane McCray for the program’s YouTube channel.

She was also a national co-chair on Barack Obama’s presidential re-election campaign in 2012.

She also announced an intention to run for Arizona’s 2nd congressional district that year, but withdrew before the primaries.

In 2016, Konst was a national surrogate for Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign and also served on the Democratic National Convention’s platform committee.

De Blasio separated from his wife, Chirlane McCray, in 2023 but said they had no intention of divorcing. Both were seen together at an A-list event in March, despite the former Mayor’s active dating life.

At the time, he had been seen making out with one woman, and allegedly taking out another who was still married — but he appears to have dropped both for Konst.

In a startling revelation, a recent report found that former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s wife, Chirlane McCray, oversaw nearly $900 million in taxpayer funds without recording how the money was spent.

The funds were allocated primarily through the former First Lady’s “ThriveNYC” mental health initiative— a program launched to address the city’s mental health and homelessness crisis.

The revelations came during a city council meeting where legislators noted the program’s slow response times. During the meeting, it was discovered that the disgustingly large amount of money spent on the Thrive program produced no actual benefits.

The program initially had a budget of $250 million per year but has seen disappointing numbers regarding the number of people it has impacted.

As Politico reported, only 570 of the estimated 12-15,000 mothers who experience postpartum depression have been helped. Of the 78,000 newborn deliveries New York City sees annually, just 28,560 of those new mothers have been screened, and only 570 women diagnosed with the condition were reached by the program.

McCray appears not to have kept a single receipt and cannot account for what she spent the $900 million on. Still, Thrive director Susan Herman claimed the program will now cost $1 billion every four years.

Queens Councilman Robert Holden told the New York Post that New York City residents have not seen a single improvement regarding the ongoing homelessness crisis on the city’s streets and its subway system.

( Sounds like a USAID SCAM.)

However, audits and investigations into the program revealed a lack of transparency, with many expenditures unaccounted for and little oversight into how the money was being spent.
