New Orleans' Democratic mayor now says she WILL pay back nearly $30,000 in city cash she blew on first-class flights - days after it's revealed she is living rent-free in luxury $3,000-a-month taxpayer-funded apartment

People get what they vote for...

Good and hard.

[teeman8r]

it is all about the struggle.

[Vigilanteman]

$30,000 to a professional grifter is like $3 to somebody who has to EARN it like me.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Rent free or free to her with the taxpayers picking up the tab? I’m guessing the latter.

[Allegra]

'As the mother of a young child whom I live for, I am going to protect myself by any reasonable means in order to ensure I am there to see her grow into the strong woman I am raising her to be.

By teaching her that victimhood crap?

What an entitled beeyotch.

[Tommy Revolts]

Living large. Good job New Orleans.

The sad part is that there are always going to be those who are okay with the corruption because it's a member of their “team” that is benefiting. For them, that's all that counts. Obama is the shining example of that attitude.

[crusty old prospector]

I went there to visit my son last week. It is a dark place. Filthy.

[dfwgator]

LaToya… ugh.

Where's Jermaine and Tito?

[MGunny]

Black Democrat Party politicians are probably the worst because no one has the courage to call them out for being among the most corrupt!

[17th Miss Regt]

It is a dark place.

Well, Ray Nagin did call it a "chocolate city".

[dfwgator]

Well, Ray Nagin did call it a "chocolate city".

And the suburbs aren't "vanilla" anymore.

[crusty old prospector]

I did see a lot of chocolate.

[SERKIT]

The Chocolate Mayor from the Chocolate City is enjoying her delicious chocolate. She’s untouchable and will do whatever she wants as the Chocolate Queen. Any critics are rassssissss.

[digger48]

"It's good to be the King Queen"

[ridesthemiles]

WHY does the city OWN A LUXURY APARTMENT???

[JBW1949]

Now that’s a fact...

You could see the wheels starting to fall off not long after he took office...Trump gave us a short break and showed the way things should be...Then “the trash” crooked it’s way back...

[Romulus]

The apartment is in the upper Pontalba building, one of the two historic 1850 red brick apartment buildings flanking Jackson Square. The city owns the whole building, leasing out most of the space, but retaining a single apartment for official hospitality use. Previous mayors have not used it as a crash pad. The $3,000 rent is probably half what the unit would get in the private market, given the location and prestige of the address. Latoya is term limited as mayor, and probably has no path to higher office in Louisiana, so she’s getting while the getting is good. She will need a national Democratic administration to take care of her in the future, if it can overlook her hopeless incompetence and self-dealing.

[Vaduz]

LaToya Cantrell = Parasite

never a shortage of them

[RummyChick]

another black person must be gunning for her position...knives are out over her misdeeds including photos of her residing in the apartment
