Faced with a rise in the number of homelessness in New York City shelters and seemingly more visible homeless on the city’s streets, Mayor Bill de Blasio unveiled a plan to hire more lawyers to help tenants avoid unjust evictions.

Gerben noted that “there is a fair-use defense in trademark law” that protects parodies, but also said “there may be a little bit of a stronger case for Mr. Trump”, if De Blasio is using “Make America Fair Again” to promote his own policies.

“It upsets me that he hasn’t done a town-hall meeting”, Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer, told The New York Post on Wednesday. “He’ll be leaving town once again when his public approval ratings are in free fall”, said Titone, who supports Clinton.

There are more than 57,000 people in city homeless shelters, an increase from when de Blasio took office in January 2014.

“It is a critical issue for both parties’ presidential candidates to address, and we are going to invite both sides to communicate their views to the voters, said Geri Prado, executive director of The Progressive Agenda Committee, which de Blasio founded”.

Richard Flanagan, a College of Staten Island political-science professor, pointed out that de Blasio is probably anticipating a primary challenge in two years, when he’s expected to run for re-election.

KATHY WILLENS/AP Yogi made famous the line ‘It ain’t over ’til it’s over.’ De Blasio apologized for misquoting the Yankees legend. “Who wants to go to Dyker Heights or Bay Ridge and get yelled at?”

“I’m sorry I’ve misquoted Yogi and I apologize”, he said.
