Embattled New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio deployed tax-payer funded municipal workers to “fix” his ‘Black Lives Matter’ mural in front of Trump Tower Monday night; seemingly ignoring the Big Apple’s sudden spike in murders.
“To whoever vandalized our mural on 5th Avenue: nice try. @NYC_DOT has already fixed it. The #BlackLivesMatter movement is more than words, and it can’t be undone,” posted de Blasio on social media.

CHAOS NYC: Rioters Loot Manhattan Stores, De Blasio Describes Situation as ‘Limited Protest Activity’
Rioters smashed windows and looted stores in Manhattan late Sunday night after assembling for citywide protests following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis; a situation Mayor Bill de Blasio described as “limited protest activity.”
“Fox News crews on the scene in SoHo reported hundreds of people stealing from luxury stores – including Chanel and Dior – for hours on Sunday night going into the early hours of Monday morning.

We had a number of stores broken into.”
