Massive ‘F–K Cuomo and de Blasio” Message Painted on Williamsburg Street

Brooklynites spelled out how they really feel about the New York City mayor and New York governor with a massive street mural over the weekend.

Attendees of a Williamsburg block-party fed up with the elected officials painted “F–k Cuomo and de Blasio” in huge block letters across the blacktop of North 15th Street, the New York Post reported.

The vulgar message was painted on the block between Wythe Avenue and Banker Street around 1 a.m. Saturday, according to the newspaper.

An attendee of the block party told the Post that the party doubled as a “small business owner protest” and that people cheered the mural.

The message’s yellow lettering is similar to the “Black Lives Matter” murals that City Hall has commissioned on streets in each borough in the wake of protests against police brutality.

City workers painted over the profanity less than 24 hours after it went up, the Post reported.

locals should set up a gofundme and hire a team / machine to paint that truth each time the city covers it up. much like how the lic waterfront residents hired a security crew. id donate to that.

do it all around the city in different locations like banksy / wheres waldo. deblasio is on another level of incompetence. at least cuomo knows to admit wrong on occasion and invite wealthy taxpayers back.

This mural is just as legal as the one in front of Trump Tower. No idea why it was painted over. Oh wait; yes I do… Freedom of speech only exists if it’s the speech the powers that be want to hear.

Ridgewood mother and daughter arrested for attacking woman over parking spot: NYPD

A Ridgewood mother and daughter were arrested Monday after they ambushed a young Black woman who tried to park her car in a spot in front of their apartment building that they frequently cordon off with garbage cans and traffic cones.

A family friend was standing at the northeast corner of Onderdonk Avenue and Putnam Avenue at around 7:30 p.m. when the 21-year-old Jada McPherson tried to park her car in the spot. The man placed a garbage can in her way. She drove off and circled the block multiple times. She tried to pull into the same spot one more time, but the man tried to stop her again. McPherson got out of her car to confront him, and an argument ensued.
