New York City's First Lady wears jeans to funeral. While thousands of present and former members of the New York City Police Department have recently displayed their displeasure and anger at Mayor Bill de Blasio by turning their collective backs on him, the mayor fired back by referring to those officers as "disrespectful," but made no mention of his wife sporting denim blue jeans to the funeral of assassinated Detective Wenjian Liu this past Sunday.

As reported by The Washington Post on Jan. 5, 2015, accompanied by his ever present Police Commissioner Bill Bratton, the city's mayor Bill de Blasio (born: Warren Wilhelm, Jr.) verbally opened fired at the numerous members of the NYPD who have turned their backs on him in recent appearances. As De Blasio stated, the offending officers were "disrespectful to the families involved.

“There is breaking news that 2 NYPD cops were shot in the Bronx a little while ago. Evidently non life threatening injuries. They pulled a car over, the driver drove off, then the car crashed. Diver got out shot at the cops and ran. Perp is still at large.”

Has DeBlasio’s son’s location at the time that this cop shooting went down been determined? /sarc

She’s about as classless and clueless as Moochie when it comes to appropriate dress. And what’s with Loretta Lynch’s outfit? Who wants to see her rolls of fat? That’s disgusting. Why do they insist on wearing tight fitting clothes that do not flatter their bodies?

He was raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts according to his Wikipedia entry. Cambridge, cops and “acted stupidly.” From where in the past have I heard that? (sarc.)

I beg pardon! Ghetto rats get to dress in whatever color suits their mood! Racist!

Her call-sign should be “Bone-in-Nose De Blasio!”

I don't think she is clueless. She showed a lack of respect on purpose.

And there’re not even dressy! OMG! I was about to cut her a bit of slack if she had worn a pair of dark, tailored designer jeans with tasteful shoes or boots. They look like something she picked out of the laundry basket that she schlepped around the house in all week. As First Lady of NYC, she shouldn’t even own a pair of jeans that look like that! That’s disgraceful!

“My New Yorker grandmother and aunts are spinning in their graves.”

Yes, yes they are. Family story, years ago when I was a kid there was a funeral. People were traveling from various places and evidently there was some complaining about who was where, when, etc. on the part of the older folks.

My brother overheard one elderly aunt say to another: at least you don’t have to worry about [jocon’s mom] she’ll have those kids here on time and dressed correctly.

As a New Yorker she’d’ve died to do otherwise.

I’m just surprised she didn’t wear a kimono or geisha outfit.

That wife is dressed in such poor taste for a funeral and certainly not appropriate for a mayor’s wife! Such disrespect for the police, the city of New York and her husband.

I find it ironic that people are criticizing the mayor and his "wife" for showing disrespect... then praising the union who used the funeral to make a political statement. No mention in the article or most of the news about this cops service, tenure or good deeds in his lifetime, but a lot about this. If the family didn't want the shill at their funeral, they would have asked him to stay away, they didn't.

Don't mistake my disgust with this as support for this leftist mayor. This funeral was supposed to be about the man who died, a tribute to his life. All party's involved should be ashamed of themselves.

Looks like he picked this one up at the projects. He’s the mayor for crying out loud, that’s the best he can do?

She sure didn’t show any respect. Reminds me of Mooch & how she dressed for certain functions where more respect should have been shown.
