“#Good riddance to Andy King and his bogus ‘racism’ defense<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Charging \u201cracism\u201d is the last defense of at least one scoundrel: That\u2019s what City Councilman Andy King charged as the council voted 48-2 Monday to expel him for repeated sexual harassment and ill treatment of staffers.<\/p>\n

Never mind that his accusers\/victims were overwhelmingly black women, nor that the council is majority non-white.<\/p>\n

The Ethics Committee also found he had taken a $2,000 kickback after giving a staff member a bonus and failed to pay a $15,000 fine imposed last year after a prior ethics investigation (he\u2019s undergone three). In the #MeToo era, King was too much of a toxic presence for Speaker Corey Johnson & Co.<\/p>\n

The Bronx Democrat only looks the fool as he tries to wrap himself in his blackness, making a mockery of the claims by true victims of bigotry.<\/p>\n

Council staff inform us that \u201capp<\/a>ropriate authorities\u201d have been informed of King\u2019s possible crimes. We doubt the \u201cracism\u201d defense will help him there, either.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
