The billings are for security detail’s travel expenses. The mayor’s security detail goes where the mayor goes. I missed the part where it says the mayor of NYC is forbidden to leave the city.

If this was a trip for legitimate business or recreation, nobody would be saying anything. Instead it was trips to be with his mistress. If his name were Bill Clinton and he was racking up expenses related to his extramarital affairs, you'd be very angry about this. Oh wait, Clinton did that while Governor and probably while President and many of us were angry.

The Mayor of New York is entitled to make private trips, and is entitled to security while he does so. But legitimate, aboveboard expenses would be billed to the mayor’s normal security account. Billing them to the loft board and the board that was supposed to help the disabled was obviously an attempt to hide them from public scrutiny. I think Rudy’s toast. The combination of the appearance of financial wrongdoing plus sexual trysts in the Hamptons will be irresistible to the MSM.
