Democrat Mayor Insists First Class Airfare Necessary for Her 'Safety'
"Here in New Orleans. The Democrat mayor in New Orleans is refusing, refusing saying she's not going to reimburse the city. The 29,000 in change dollars that she spent upgrading her flights to first or business class because it's all for her safety. Apparently, as a black woman, she can't fly coach because that would not be safe. I kid do not. This is actually what she said. Which is why I say we're at that tipping point, right? Evan entitlement. But let me back up. So her name is latoya. Cantrell, and she's the mayor there in New Orleans, and she told reporters last week she was just not going to pay it back. She's not paying a lot of money, right? There was some $18,000 first class trip to France over the summer, which was just for some sort of ceremony to design some renew min of an agreement that they had with some little seaside tongue. Am I supposed to go right in the summer, especially when you book an $18,000 ticket on taxpayers dime? Anyway, she's not paying it back and she's telling the local media this, according to the New Orleans advocate and times paper down there, I'm going to quote now from WWL, one of the stations, all expenses incurred doing business on behalf of the city of New Orleans will not be reimbursed to the city of New Orleans. That may be seen as kind of a problem, especially given that the city of New Orleans actually has a policy for this. Employees are required to purchase, I'm going to quote here the lowest airfare available. This is according to the policy, which WWL dug up, employees who choose an upgrade from code to economy or business class flights are solely responsible to policy says for the difference in cost. Any reconciliation of travel expenses that result in overpayment by the city would require that the employee reimbursed the city within 20 business days, but she can't do it because

Mayor LaToya Cantrell Says She Won’t Repay $30,000 in Travel Expenses
"So the mayor of New Orleans is a Democrat. It's a woman named not to assume her gender. Latoya cantrell. And so officials are trying to determine if the mayor has to repay almost $30,000 in taxpayer money. For trips that she took to France and Switzerland. Now. I never understood when these mayors. So I've got to go to Ireland or these governors have to go to, why do you have to go to Ireland for? The governor of my state, we had to go to Ireland. I'm like, really? Because his last name's Murphy. So I'm like, okay, was this a family to go see the place of your birth? Or is this really, how are you helping the state by traveling to Ireland? I don't understand. What couldn't be done over a Zoom call? I was curious. But so they used their power and privilege. And of course, they travel and we pay for it. So she's had a bunch of brushes with some ethics problems in the past. And so she's saying that she's not going to repay the money. She took this summer, she went from Washington dulles. To Switzerland. Now, I'm sure their flights leave in Louisiana. But I'm sure she probably didn't want to transfer. She wanted to fly from New Orleans to JFK. Or Washington dulles, and so she, I don't know how she got there. But anyway. So she refuses to refund the money. And technically, she's supposed to refund the money because she flew first class. So during a press conference, she was asked about this. Listen to her response because there's more to this. Listen to her response. All expenses and car doing business on behalf of the city of New Orleans will not be reimbursed to the city of new Orleans. One thing is clear. I do my job and I will continue to do it with distinction with dignity and integrity every step of the way.
