NY City Mayor de Blasio is not changing our expectations about his politics - from the New York Post:
De Blasio appoints wife head of coronavirus racial inequality task force
Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Sunday that he has put First Lady Chirlane McCray in charge of a special coronavirus task force — insisting her work with her embattled ThriveNYC initiative made her perfect for the new job.
McCray will work with Deputy Mayor Phil Thompson in leading a task force on racial inclusion and equity to make sure the Big Apple rebounds as a “better and more just society than the one we left behind,” Hizzoner said.
The mayor insisted that the First Lady deserved her place at the head of the new initiative because of the ideas she generated — defying critics and praising her work with her $250 million-a-year mental health plan.
So she is already seriously mismanaging the $250 million dollar program and her husband (the Mayor) hands her another sinecure. Unreal but not surprising.
The word you are looking for is Nepotism
