THIS IS AN ABSURDITY; IT'S ALSO NEW YORK – AT 11:18 A.M. ET:  New York's hard-left mayor, Castroite and amateur Sandinista Bill de Blasio, has huffed and puffed in searching for a new schools chief, and the guy he came up with is a beaut.  From Conservative Treehouse:   

According to the New York Daily News, New York Mayor Bill De Blasio has hired Miami Dade’s former school head Alberto Carvalho to be the New York School Chancellor. This will NOT end well.  New York parents likely have no idea who their mayor just hired.

In 2013 an investigation into the Miami-Dade School Police Department (M-DSPD) uncovered several police officers, and School Resource Officers, admitting to breaking the law because they were instructed to do so by M-DSPD Police Chief Charles Hurley.  During the investigation, Chief Hurley admitted to giving the police officers instructions to hide criminal conduct by students, because of specific demands by School Superintendent Alberto Carvalho.

Alberto Carvalho is a very well connected political figure among Democrats.  [Carvalho also has a zipper problem] It was Carvalho’s program to use the police to inflate statistical improvements in schools that eventually led to neighboring Broward County doing the same thing in 2013.  Those policies directly led to the recent school shooting in Parkland.

COMMENT:  He's also an illegal immigrant who later became legal.  Who can ask for anything more?

This is so typical of Bill de Blasio, who is to the left of Bernie Sanders.

But, ultimately, I blame the Republicans.  Rudy Giuliani proved that a Republican can be elected mayor of New York, and he became a great mayor.  Ever since Rudy, though, the Republican Party of New York has retreated to its traditional loser status.  It barely ran a mayoral campaign when de Blasio was elected once, and then again.  Why bother?  These elections are so difficult, and not nearly as much fun as an annual dinner.

Come back, Rudy.

In the meantime, we will watch The New York Times cover up for the new schools chancellor.
