De Blasio calls Trump’s claims of stolen hospital supplies ‘insulting’
NY Post ^ | 3/30/20 | Julia Marsh

Posted on 03/30/2020 8:02:25 AM PDT by conservative98

Mayor Bill de Blasio said he was outraged by President Donald Trump’s suggestion that medical supplies are being stolen by staff at New York City hospitals.

“It’s insulting, it’s outrageous, it’s incredibly insensitive to people right now who are giving their all,” de Blasio said on NY1 Monday morning.

At a White House coronavirus briefing Sunday Trump said he didn’t understand the surging demand for masks at city hospitals.

“Something is going on, and you ought to look into it as reporters. Are they going out the back door?” Trump asked.

“I don’t even know where he’s getting that information,” de Blasio said.

“It’s not true and it’s the wrong thing for him to do and he should just get back to work,” de Blasio fumed.

Last week, an executive at NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital said there had been a theft of medical gear— before discovering the supplies on-premises. There have been other, scattered reports about missing and stolen supplies.

“Insulting but accurate.”

But in the meantime their side is free to slander President Trump all they want. Even calling him a murderer or a Traitor.

Bill de Blasio is not his real name. He and his wife stole $850 million.

Where has $850m gone? Bill de Blasio’s wife can’t account for staggering amount of taxpayer money that the NY Mayor gave her for mental health project

ER Nurse at Miami Valley, Dayton,OH says,

I have 3 nurses in my family. They verify that this is true. They think the nighttime cleaning crews are the main perps. The thefts stopped after the supplies were locked up where only nurses could access them.

He has daddy issues. ---- Though originally named Warren Wilhelm Jr., he was called "Bill" or "Billy" growing up.[18] His father became a heavy drinker and his parents divorced when he was seven.[15] Bill and his brother Donald were then raised by Maria and her extended family. Of his early childhood, de Blasio said, "my mother and father broke up very early on in the time I came along, and I was brought up by my mother's family—that's the bottom line—the de Blasio family."[18] His father committed suicide while suffering from incurable lung cancer when Bill was 18.[19]

She tossed it around all over the place, in return for politial good will and favors.

It's small change compared to Andy Cuomo, who did the same thing with $56 billion he "disappeared" from HUD when he was Secretary in the Clinton Administration. He didn't keep it either, but doled it out to all the inner city political leaders and "ministers" in ghettos nationwide, greasing the skids for his failed presidential run.

They loot the public coffers to spread "good will" amongst their political coconspirators.

DeBlobbio is not up to the mayor's job. His public resources are second only to the president’s
and he has the trained manpower to mobilize them. He's just not smart enough to use them.

Probably needs his wife needs to tell him what to do (cackle).

THE ODD COUPLE---BLOBBIO DESCRIBES HIS WIFE AS HIS "NUMBER ONE ADVISOR"

Insider buzz is that Blobbio is ruled by his wife---that the two work hand in hand to make public policy decisions.

He even had his winning Mayoral numbers tattooed on his wife's ***.

Was in line buying groceries and overheard a young woman on her cell phone (obviously a nurse) making the same claim.

I abhor his politics, but in a perverse way, I love to see Cuomo mentioned as a presidential candidate .....

B/c Mayor DeBlasio hungers for the job, was measured for it, and found to have several brain cells short of what's needed.

DeBlobbio must be sick with jealousy----he had the same opportunity----to get on TV 24/7 and hawk himself-----but DeBlobbio screwed up.

Blob's (cough) No 1 adviser, his wife, must be paying the price.

That wasnt nice to put her own political ambitions ahead of her husband's.

Nope, nobody would steal valuable medical supplies in New York.

Mmmmmmm......does DeBlobbio know?

Chinese corporations operating in America are not eligible for the upcoming trillion-dollar bailout.

The Chinese own the iconic NYC Waldorf Astoria Hotel......among other US holdings.

Yesterday the President noted one hospital in NYC that normally uses 15k face masks in a particular period of time had used 300k.

So, was deBlobbo asked about that?

Look, Trump has been running hotels in New York City. If there is shrinkage, he would be able to sniff it out pretty quickly.

I remember in the early 80s hospital scrub suits briefly became a hot fashion item. They disappeared from hospitals faster than you could imagine. Anyone who tells you masks are not being stolen will tell you there is no voter fraud, illegal immigrants commit fewer crimes than US citizens, and global warming will cause human extinction.

Mayr Di Blasio says it’s not his job as Mayor to figure out why medical supplies in his city are missing. His job, as Mayor of New York, is to rag on about Trump. The rest of the country isn’t doing enough for New York. Why does New York get only 1 hospital ship, when they need both? Why does New York get only 2 army hospitals, when army hospitals are being deployed to other cities? Why does New York only get 4,000 ventilators out of the national stockpile of 10,000, when they need 30,000? Everybody else can just f-off and die because New York’s needs are absolute.

VIDEO Dead bodies are loaded into refrigerated trucks outside New York hospitals after 98 people died in seven HOURS -

NY city’s death toll up to 776 and cases to 33,786 - as Mayor de Blasio warns people may be fined $500 for not staying home.

The video (at web site) shows medical staff loading a pallet of bodies into a truck at Brooklyn Hospital in Fort Greene

A nurse in Manhattan also shared a photograph of bodies in a refrigerated truck at a different hospital

33,700 people in New York City have tested positive and 776 people have died.

NYC is the epicenter of the virus in America; there are 142,000 cases across the country and 2,500 have died

City officials said this is the biggest deployment of makeshift morgues since the September 11, 2001, attacks

There are also field hospitals popping up in Central Park and in luxury hotels like the Plaza and St Regis

The USNS Comfort, a Navy hospital ship, will dock at New York Harbor on Monday bringing 1,000 beds

Trump said on Sunday that if 200,000 or fewer died from the virus, he would have done a ‘good job’

He has extended social distancing guidelines until the end of April after consulting disease experts

Coronavirus symptoms: what are they and should you see a doctor?

Horrifying footage has emerged of dead bodies being loaded onto a refrigerated truck with a forklift outside Brooklyn Hospital in New York City where 776 people have died from coronavirus and 33,000 have been infected.

The video - which was taken by a bystander from their car - shows the bodies being loaded onto a vehicle. It surfaced within hours of a nurse sharing a harrowing photograph of bodies that had been piled into a refrigerated truck to be taken away from a different hospital.

There are makeshift morgues and hospitals popping up all over New York City, the epicenter of the virus in the US, including one in Central Park.

As of Monday morning, there were 142,000 cases of coronavirus in the US and 2,500 people had died.

New York City is expecting its ‘peak’ in the next few weeks and there is a frantic race against time to prepare the already inundated hospital system for it when it comes.

While it is the epicenter now, experts including the White House’s most authoritative voice on the subject - Dr. Anthony Fauci - say other cities will soon experience similarly distressing outbreaks.

New Orleans is expected to be the next hotspot - it currently has 1,350 cases and 73 deaths - but Fauci said on Monday he was also worried about Detroit and Los Angeles.

BLASIO IS INSULTING TO EVERYONE’S INTELLIGENCE. HE DECLARED NYC AND CUOMO MADE THE STATE SANCTUARIES AND EVERY ILLEGAL ALIEN EITHER WENT L.A. OR NYC. NOW NYC AND L.A. RESIDENTS WITH FINANCIAL MEANS ARE HEADING EAST OR SOUTH SPREADING THE VIRUS. BOTH OF THESE PROGRESSIVE CLOWNS NEED RECALL OR BE PROSECUTED.
