Comrade Bill De Blasio-Wilhelm shifting funds away from NYPD (defunding?)

After a week of rioting in New York City (and really all around the state), Comrade Bill de Blasio aka Warren Wilhelm Jr. has announced that he is “shifting funds away” from the NYPD. In other words, De Blasio is “defunding” the NYPD, though the amount of defunding is unknown. Instead, Communist De Blasio is shifting funds to support local youth groups. This should work out well. All I can say about this is, suck it New York City. You re-elected this communist TWICE. Vote Democrat communist, this is the result. Until to learn otherwise, your city will burn.

“We will be moving funding from the NYPD to youth initiatives and social services,” Hizzoner vowed, calling it part of “deeper reforms” to tackle the “profound disparities” in the city.

It was not clear how much funding was being switched or which groups would receive the extra help. Hizzoner said the “details will be worked out in the budget process in the weeks ahead.”

De Blasio vowed that it would be done “in a way that we are certain continues to ensure that this city will be safe.”

The mayor also announced that street vendor enforcement will “no longer be the responsibility of the NYPD,” and will instead be handled by a civilian agency. He did not clarify which agency.
