Bloomberg was criticized for saying he was for gay marriage...but with a caveat. He will not fight for civil rights until it is convenient for him to do so. Image
As he is doing with the presidency, Bloomberg bought his way into his mayor position by touting his endorsement from former governor, Rudy Guiliani...

Bloomberg supported Scott Brown (MA Republican) against Liz Warren because Scott opposed a ban on automatic weapons. Bloomberg claimed the bill would have caused "chaos" & "This guy has saved a lot of lives in New York City" because of opposing it.

From the horse's own mouth

Somebody brought up Bloomberg's connection to Epstein and when I searched for articles, this Vanity Fair one came up ===> nymag.com/intelligencer/…

I mean, are they really trying to sell us that Mike was just there for the plane??? Image
Amy dropped this so I want to put it into the thread too. As we know, Mike likes to play both sides of the duopoly.

This article was just funny to me. Of course the edibles are kicking in so that could be why 😁 but she does have a point. People are going to do what they are going to do. ImageImage
Bloomberg believes that more Blacks need to be stopped 😒

Here is some more audio of Bloomberg describing Stop & Frisk. He explains there are more cops in certain areas because that "is where all the crime is".

The time Bloomberg was against the "illegal" Transit Workers' Union striking for better pay and conditions, he bought a bike and taunted that the Union Leaders need "cooler heads"

Here is a transcript on the Dem Now's story on it: democracynow.org/2005/12/21/may… Image
It was considered "illegal" because of the Taylor Law which was passed because of the 1966 Transit Strike.
Here is an ad from 2013 in support of the Community Safety Act denouncing Bloomberg's support of stop and frisk after he vetoed the bill trying to rein the policy in. Image
The veto was later overridden by the NY City Council but Bloomberg claimed the bill, which pushed to eliminate discriminatory policing, was dangerous and made the community less safe.

He was well vetted in 2010. We didn't want him then but now they will fawn all over him...
