It’s definitely going to be tied up in the courts for quite some time and likely stalled hoping he can just pardon himself from the White House

Maybe, and correct me if I’m wrong, they could just back off policing. In 2017 they did it as a way to ‘punish’ the city but it had the opposite effect. We could police less, use the money for services, and enjoy a greater quality of life

This, every politician in office is salivating on earmarking that money for ‘schools’ and taking the press but in reality trading it for favors

The couple demanded $5000 then $25000. What chaser lawyer took this case on?

And now a small business is gone

Wow, he actually had a company

Sorry about your buddy, no good deed. He has a black eye and the kids went home and ate ravioli like nothing happened

Also fighting a group of kids if you intervene. If you lose you can lose 1v1 but if you get the upper hand 5 more are going to jump in

Indeed, risk going to real jail for hitting a kid and if the kid hits you they get a slap on the wrist. Another downside is you’re seriously injured, a lot of these kids know how to fight and want to, I don’t know how to fight and really don’t want to

Given the great deal on hotels each apartment should cost $8,000 and be in Manhattan

I also thought it was widely reported he was evicted several times and lied about his employment history. Retreading stories like this just gives him ammunition to say the press is just out to get him

In 2014 when he was 26. What 26 year old doesn’t have financial difficulties in nyc. I’m not on the santos train but IMO this is just click bait

I’ve looked in a lot of Manhattan thrift shops like Salvation Army, goodwill and independent guys and found two things. They’re either stripped of anything interesting by resellers or they’re overpriced. Just my experience

That’s true, I would say give them low cost apartments in city housing but I feel that would just be a slap in the face for anyone already on those lists

You or I would need to earn, what, $170k per year on the books to realize the benefit of $132k. Whatever your views are there are people realizing much less and surviving in this city. Where is it all going

Usually twice a month but those magical months when you get 3 checks

Calm down, everyone is just trying to tell you that you fell for it and it doesn’t matter so much anymore

Landlords are surrogate parents for some people

The plan is to let the next politician worry about it after the current one leaves office

There’s so much going on with this guy guess I missed it

But I believe in his mind he thought he could use real money from donors to pay himself back the fake 700k loan. That even if he didn’t win he could net some big money

Edit: I realized not fully reading your comment while driving caused me to summarize exactly what you said, he definitely just wanted the campaign grift

Commenting here for the time stamp, I suspect this guy never loaned his campaign 700k. It was just an excuse to grift a lump sum from contributors

The wait in Mexico policy really was onto something now that you think of it

Do you have an example, I just find it unbelievable and if you had proof it would be cool, so there are child specialists working for 30 years that make less than a brand new hire, Idk about that

It’s simple, what job is maxing 41k when starting salaries are 50
