De Blasio’s transition team drops big bucks


When they weren’t gearing up to fight for the poor, members of Bill de Blasio’s transition team were spending like the 1  percent.


Campaign-finance reports released Wednesday show that the team spent $ 277.17 for dinner at Delmonico’s Steak House near Wall Street on Dec. 23; $ 601 for one night at The W hotel in DC on Dec. 12, when de Blasio was visiting President Obama; and $ 1,142 at The St. Regis in Midtown on Dec. 16.


Despite this, they blew through only about half the $ 2 million raised for the transition. De Blasio has $ 988,000 left.
