Get Me a Crying Towel

 

Chancellor David Banks can’t seem to get out of his own way. He is under investigation as are so many others in Mayor Adams’ administration. He gets married to the Deputy Mayor, Sheila Wright this past weekend, who is also being federally investigated.

 

And now, although he offered to resign his position, effective December 31, Mayor Adams has decided to accelerate that date to October 16 when Melissa Aviles-Ramos is now going to take over.

Banks feels this is Adams making a “Hail Mary” pass to save his own postion. The brutal backroom maneuvering comes as the indicted Adams, besieged by federal investigations aimed at himself and his top officials, appears to be working to maintain the trust of Governor Kathy Hochul and keep his job.

Seems right. But Adams has the right to do this.

Rather than accept his fate, Banks is crying to anyone who will listen to how unjust he is being treated by Mayor Adams. And how he is being disrespected.

As opposed to the people, the taxpayers and the CHILDREN of the City of New York he supposed to be working for.

Stop the tears, David, take your pension and just go away.
