Mayor Bill de Blasio, who has just three months left in office, is quietly banishing a statue of Founding Father Thomas Jefferson from City Hall’s council chambers — where it has resided for the past 187 years, The Post has learned.
The city’s Public Design Commission — comprised of mayoral appointees — has listed “the long term loan” of the 1833 bronze cast of the Declaration of Independence author to the New-York Historical Society on its “consent” agenda for Monday.
The consent designation means the historic statue’s removal is not scheduled for public debate. The 11-member design commission will vote on de Blasio’s Jefferson exile after reviewing public comments, a City Hall spokesman said.

In NY? He’ll win hands down... IMHO...
“Win” in the communist definition.
Making room for a statue of Lenin or Marx.
The Balkinization of the U.S. continues! Left unchecked, it will end in the destruction of our republic.
"Unless the LORD builds the house, They labor in vain who build it." - Psalm 127:1
Maybe Che will replace that nasty old Jefferson
Not if NY follows suit and does a forensic audit of the 2020 election. Exposing the fraud and cleaning up the elections will almost insure that people like DeBlasio will never win an election again.
Why is the Democrat Party Cabal (DPC) doing all this stuff piecemeal and in dragged-out, slow motion? Why don't all Democrat politicians just campaign around the country and tell the American people that all references to, statues of, and basically anything having to do with our Founding Fathers (e.g., the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution) are hereby permanently "Canceled," removed, and banished from the U.S. for all eternity. Deep down, that's what the DPC desires, so why not just come out and say it?
Then the Founding Fathers can be completely replaced with the writings of, references to, and glorious images of Karl Marx, Uncle Bernie, Engels, Aunt Elizabeth, Vladimir Lenin, Ilhan Omar, and Mao Zedong. The DPC's socialist/Communist takeover of the United States will then be complete (making George Soros extremely happy).
Not sure what his problem is. Jefferson was good to his slaves.
Except for the whole being a slave part.
The son of a bitch.
When this history erasure started after Nimrata Randhawa got it rolling, I said they would go after the founders, even before Trump did.
Got laughed at, just like Trump did.
Now?

DeBlassio may ask “the little woman” for suggestions on a new statue.
She might suggest someone like that Olympic weight tosser, the grouchy faced black woman with blue lipstick who turned her back while patriotic American songs were being played.
Did you miss when ALL of our elected AND appointed ripped up the Constitution on Usurpation Day?
Founding father statue out
Drug addled violent felon in
It’s dead, Jim.
Good call. This is cultural cleansing. Start with Lee and Davis end with Washington and finally Lincoln.
So what of Columbus Circle? Surely that can’t stand with these woke fools in charge?
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell, 1984
