De Blasio lawyers up amid state, FBI fund-raising probes

(New York Daily News) Mayor de Blasio has lawyered up — at the same time that a new report says the feds are looking into whether he used “straw donors” during his 2013 run.

And, in more trouble for the mayor — he’ll have to hire someone else to help spin the bad news.

His press secretary Karen Hinton is leaving the administration after less than a year on the job, City Hall announced late Thursday.

Her sudden resignation — after rampant rumors of inner turmoil in his press shop — was announced hours after Hizzoner issued a news release saying he’d hired white collar lawyer Barry Berke to represent him in the ongoing federal and state probe into his fund-raising.
