While the de Blasio administration is at fault, correction leads the pack in government abuse, the problem of city workers raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars in overtime, the tab of which is picked up by the taxpayer has existed for decades (likely longer) with previous administrations.

New York Post

The city’s overtime king has been demoted as part of an ongoing probe into alleged pay abuses at the Department of Transportation.

David Russell, who pulled in $259,705 last year on a base salary of $82,076 working as a supervisor of highway repairers, was demoted to highway repairer, according to the DOT….

Russell’s base salary was increased recently to $92,457 under a new union contract…..

Russell’s “overtime irregularities” are under investigation by an administration that claims it no longer has faith in this individual “working in a supervisory role,” Boss Tweed lives on.

No shame to their gain in particular since this individual is a highway repairer and for some reason, NYC highways and streets continue to look the same. Road repairs in NYC under Bill de Blasio may prove to be the City’s biggest fraud since the Dinkins administration. Same scam different decade.

With frenemies like Sharpton, who needs real enemies? As an aide for New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, Rachel Noerdlinger, who used to run media relations for Al Sharpton’s National Action Network as its vice president, worked to cover up Sharpton’s lies due to concerns about making him look bad. Noerdlinger was chief of staff for de Blasio’s wife before she was pushed to resign from the $170,000 position after months of controversies including her boyfriend being a convicted cop-killer and her own calls for violent retaliation against police arose. New emails released by the Mayor’s office last […]

In January 2015, Rachel Noerdlinger, former chief of staff to Bill de Blasio’s wife, Chirlane McCray, after leaving the de Blasio administration went to work for a lobbyist/PR firm Mercury Public Affairs, whose offices are conveniently located less than two miles from City Hall as the firm’s managing director.

According to her bio, Noerdlinger who supposedly will not be lobbying City Hall, “practices strategic communications, crisis management and public affairs, along with community engagement in electoral politics and business.”

Business as usual. In a March 5, 2015 interview with the Amsterdam News, a Black newspaper, a not bitter, Noerdlinger stated that she continues to work with Sharpton and his National Action Network in addition to “building up the Democratic side of Mercury.”

Her only regret (or so it would seem) was not turning down the job as McCray’s chief of staff. Noerdlinger feels that she would have been far more helpful to the de Blasio administration from the outside. H/t Thee Rant.

It really is amazing that I manage to make it fifty feet from the door of my home to the corner of my street everyday without stepping on all the garbage in New York City. After all, the undertakings of Sharpton’s former director of communications was to control the message and create divert fire away from Commie Bill, all of which have the blessings of the de Blasios and comrades.
