Three Months After Taking Office, Zohran Mamdani Declares NYC is in a ‘Budget Crisis’ and Seeks a Bailout From the State (VIDEO)

 This commie Shitbag can't blame his predecessor but like Obama he probably will

Screencap of Twitter/X video.

New York City’s new Democratic Socialist (communist) Mayor Zohran Mamdani is already running out of other people’s money.

Just three months after being sworn in and a campaign full of promises of free this and free that, Mamdani has declared that the city is in a ‘budget crisis’ which he claims is of historic magnitude.

He says that the city needs new forms of revenue, which translates roughly to new taxes, and he wants a bailout from the state.

This is just astounding.

New York City has an annual budget of approximately $120 billion. That’s not enough? He can’t make things work with that kind of money?

NBC News in New York reports:

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Council Speaker Julie Menin are urging the State to approve a budget that will help fund the multi-billion budget gap that the city is facing — while supporting the State in extending its final budget deadline to June.

Mamdani and Menin appeared Tuesday in the City Hall rotunda to announce a new agreement to lobby for a $1 billion tax rollback and more State aid.

“New York City faces a budget crisis of historic magnitude,” Mamdani said Tuesday during a joint press conference. “We’ve inherited a deficit larger than any since the Great Recession. Years of mismanagement and chronic under budgeting, alongside a structural imbalance between what New York City sends to the State and what we receive in return, have taken a toll. We cannot close this deficit with savings alone. We need new revenue. And we need a structural reset in our relationship with the State. That is the only way to meet our legal obligation to pass a balanced budget and to do so without imposing a financial burden into the backs of working people.”…

On Tuesday, Mamdani voiced support behind extending the State’s budget deadline from this upcoming Friday to June 12 “because the crisis of this scale cannot be solved without State action.”

What a stark contrast from Mamdani’s campaign promises. Where’s all the free stuff? Where are the lower rents?

It’s almost like none of that was even possible in the first place.

Good luck, New York. You’ll need it.

WATCH: Rep. Jasmine Crockett Declares ‘I Am One of the 535 Most Powerful People’ in America While Whining About ‘Disrespect’ Toward Black Women, Demands Regular Americans Need to Know Their Place

 Here is a Racist Dumbass that does not know when to shut her mouth.  She could have  place in Hell and it would not bother me a bit. She is out soon so that is great

Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett unleashed an unhinged and egotistical rant on national television Tuesday, insisting she is one of the “535 most powerful people in this country” and complaining that everyday Americans are showing her “disrespect” by failing to treat her as an untouchable elite.

Crockett made the comments during an appearance on “The Sherri Show,” hosted by Sherri Shepherd, while discussing criticism of Black women in Congress.

“Some people are just like, ‘Oh, but you’re a congresswoman.’ I’m a Black woman first,” Crockett declared.

The soon-to-be former politician added, “So, the level of disrespect that is continuously lobbed against us as Black women, for me, I’m like, wait a minute now. I am one of the 535 most powerful people in this country!”

Crockett went on to demand that everyday Americans know their place beneath her.

“And for some reason you think we’re on the same level, but you’re going to disrespect me? Like, it’s not going to happen!” Crockett asserted.

WATCH:

The interview has drawn swift backlash and criticism on social media, with commenters explaining that members of Congress are public servants elected by the American people, not royalty above reproach.

Crockett’s latest outburst comes at a particularly awkward time, because in March, she was decisively defeated in the Democrat primary for U.S. Senate in Texas by state Rep. James Talarico.

The stunning loss ended her bid to move up from the House, leaving her as a lame-duck congresswoman heading into the final months of her term.

Crockett, a former public defender and civil rights attorney, first won election to Congress in a 2023 special election for Texas’s 30th District following the retirement of longtime Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson.

The loudmouth representative quickly gained national attention for her combative style in House hearings, most notably her viral exchanges with then-Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and other Republicans during Judiciary Committee proceedings.

WATCH:

Crockett has consistently forced race and gender into every political dispute she has.

Thankfully, we won’t have to listen to her for much longer.
