As Prosecutors Look the Other Way Mayoral Candidate Albanese Files the First of Many Lawsuits Against de Blasio
Suit: de Blasio should pay lawyer bills over
corruption probes, not taxpayers (NYP) The suit,
electronically filed on Sunday, alleges that de Blasio and his “underlings”
engaged in “criminal and/or unethical behavior…outside the scope of public
employment and thus should not be covered by the city of New York.” The court papers, obtained by The Post, note
that “the ‘ethically challenged’ de Blasio” broke a February 2017 promise that
no public money would “fund the mayor’s individual compliance” with the
pay-to-play probes — and that he made a “quiet statement” revealing his
about-face “on the Friday ‘getaway day’ before this year’s Fourth of July
weekend.” Other defendants targeted by
the Manhattan Supreme Court suit include top City Hall aide Emma Wolfe, former
de Blasio fund-raiser Ross Offinger and former mayoral consultant Josh Gold,
although court papers suggest there are additional, “as yet unknown
co-conspirators who came under investigation.”
Lead plaintiff and Democratic mayoral challenger Sal Albanese said he
and his fellow plaintiffs — Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa and Staten
Island political activist Frank Morano — plan to unveil the suit at a Monday
news conference outside of the former Tweed Courthouse in Lower Manhattan. Exhibits attached to the filing include
several Post reports, including
a Friday exclusive that revealed the extraordinary influence wielded
by two top de Blasio campaign contributors, one of whom, Jona Rechnitz, has
pleaded guilty to making political donations and paying off law-enforcement
officials in exchange for favorable treatment.
De Blasio has claimed he barely knew either man, yet Rechnitz directly
emailed de Blasio seeking an appointment to help “combat police corruption,”
while the other man, Jeremy Reichberg, reached out to the first deputy mayor’s
chief of staff about a water bill that got reduced from $650,000 to $125,304
due to what officials have said was a faulty meter.

Is the NY Post de Facto Political Editor George Arzt Hurting Fox News Chances to Buy Sky News?
Fox
News lets Bill O'reilly and a lot of other high priced talent go to
clean up their image because in Europe that have more professional in
their Journalism and ethics and morality count. There is a news lawsuit
on Fox News coverage of the Seth Rich story that CNN is pushing. The
Arzt story is not well known and could blind side Fox if a federal judge
in Brooklyn rules that Judge Jacobson lawsuit could go forward.
Jacobson is Suing the Brooklyn machine which Arzt flacks for. The
machine screening panel not only did not approve Judge Jacobson a 23
year judge, somehow the secret person hit that is not supposed to go
public was leaked to the NY Post. There is widespread belief among
NYC's political class that Arzt controls what goes in the post and which
pol that attack.

de Blasio Takes the Money Millions Which May Go to His Lobbyist Consultants Who Ran Campaign for One NY
Why de Blasio's picking pockets to the tune of $2.9
million
(NYP Ed) To hear Mayor de Blasio tell it, he’s in the political fight of his
life, desperately hanging on for his survival — and that’s why he needs another
$2.9 million in taxpayer money. Of
course, the polls and the pundits tell a very different story: The
mayor, despite sinking popularity ratings, is 30-plus percentage points ahead of
Republican challenger Nicole Malliotakis.
And, as important, he’s demanding those millions for the primary season,
where he faces pretty much the Webster’s definition of “minimal opposition.”
But that hasn’t stopped de Blasio from filing a “statement of need” for the full complement in matching funds, claiming he needs the cash to compete effectively.
