Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani taps Lillian Bonsignore as next FDNY commissioner

Grimscale · Saturday at 6:44 AM

So he worked in FDNY for 31 years.

Doing what?

Sure doesn't look like he can run up 12 flights of stairs in a full kit. Actually looks like he'd be lucky to be able to fall out of the truck in a full kit.

Thank goodness she's gay. I was concerned the new administration wasn't divers enough.

What’s the over/under on how long it takes for NYC fire hydrants to be painted rainbow?

The Chief’s revolted against the last unqualified commissioner, so maybe they will again.

I for one am happy to see that the Mamdani administration is proving to be just as gay as I thought it would be. Very, very... very... extremely gay.

I’m a bit surprised actually. His Muslim brothers do not like the gays and I was thinking he might be a bit of a hardliner. However, the Muslims know how to play the game and I’m sure that’s what he’s doing.

He's on a different forum now.

He left this forum, never to come back... (His words, not mine.)

Where did everyone go?

She was a medic, no firefighting experience though.

She's another DEI hire. She's supposedly an experienced medic, but I think more importantly to the leftists is that she's gay and a woman who purposely looks like a guy.

If Mr. Mc Commie Mamdani spray paints her brown, he'll have the trifecta.

Send her to Michael Jackson's doctor and tell them to do the opposite to her skin.

You guys see this shit coming out of NYC????
The NYC Community Opportunity to Purchase Act (COPA) is a new law, passed in December 2025, that gives qualified non-profits and community groups the "first dibs" or right of first refusal to buy certain residential buildings (typically 3+ units) before other private buyers, aiming to preserve and create affordable housing by directing sales to mission-driven organizations. It requires owners to notify the city and these groups of intent to sell, granting them a chance to match offers or buy the property, shifting power to community stakeholders for housing preservation

I did see that but I didn’t think it passed.
The kicker is they then notified the non-profit of what the winning bid is giving them an option to counter bid from what I saw. How can this not be illegal? Or at least that’s what I saw in the one proposed.

Raises all sorts of questions. How many non profits are there that can purchase these properties? What does this tell us about his plan to increase the number of non-profits and manage the city through them?

Money laundering plain simple, tax money to support "needed" non profit, happen to be run by friends family

But wait...it gets worse!

Can he really destroy a city in under a year? He is certainly going to give it the 'ol college try.

This puke wagons inauguration is coming up. I can’t stand to watch it. I wonder if he will swear on the Koran or pull some other tasteless crap stunt.
