New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio was incredibly forthcoming with his state-funded discrimination on Thursday when he helped oversee a Black Lives Matter “mural” in front of the Trump Tower and then later announced the city’s ban on all major events except—you guessed it!—Black Lives Matter protests.
“This is political bias through the law, ”Buck Sexton, the host of “The Buck Sexton Show,” said on Friday. “I don’t understand how this can’t be illegal.”
He continued that this is discrimination “with state resources.”
JOE BIDEN IS A POLITICAL COWARD
Sexton was pointing to an interview de Blasio had on CNN where he announced that major parades and festivals would be canceled in the city due to the health risk that the coronavirus still poses. De Blasio—who has been called out for his threats to churches and synagogues about disobeying coronavirus orders--- said, “this is a historic moment of change.”
“We have to respect that,” he said.
Sexton slammed what he saw as an obvious double-standard. He said de Blasio Is essentially saying that these protests “are worth people dying for.”
Sexton pointed out that the disease is still a concern and family spread is another major health threat to the public. The young protester trying to set Saks Fifth Avenue on fire or throw a Molotov cocktail through the window of BVLGARI in Rockefeller Center may not be at high risk for the disease, but his family could be.
“But you have Bill de Blasio taking this moment, when he’s supposed to be a leader on the issue of public health. He’s got eight million people who this complete nincompoop gets to just make these determinations like he’s Caesar or something.”
In the early days of the coronavirus, de Blasio was a lot bolder in his lockdown enforcement and was even criticized of alleged antisemitism when he cracked down on a Hasidic funeral in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, while turning a blind eye to public gatherings in city parks.
Sexton has maintained that Democrats are using the coronavirus lockdown to win politically. They want to stay in lockdown and ban President Trump protests while actively encouraging protests that often result in violence and arson.
“Black Lives Matter has already gone through this whole thing before,” Sexton said. He said as a result of the earlier movement nothing improved.
“Oh, but it’s a historic moment now,” Sexton said. “Yeah, sure it is.”
