Bloomberg Slams Clinton: She Stabbed NYC In Back

Mayor Says Secretary Of State Committed Double Flip-Flop By Exempting Diplomats From Paying Big Apple Property Taxes

Says $260 Million Already Lost, Sets Bad Precedent For The Future

Mayor Michael Bloomberg said her betrayal has cost the city $260 million in lost tax revenues and counting.
