Brian Fox signals everybody that deep down he's still --- THE CIGAR SMOKIN' SHARK OF WALL STREET



By announcing that a professional cigar roller will be at his fund raising event today, Brian Fox was letting everbody know that he still is the same old lovable cigar-chomping  afficianado that he was during those go-go-go Wall Street parties with the pumpers-and-dumpers and/or churners-and-burners at the three (and possibly more*) "investment" companies that made their money in so many kinds of nefarious dealings that federal prosecutors  and/or regulators had to shut them down

This is the posting on the Brian Fox for City Council Facebook page yesterday:

"Brian Fox for City Council...  [@5:00 PM, 10/16/2021]...  I am pleased to announce that #FoxToberfest will also have an expert cigar roller on hand from The Mobile Cigar Lounge to provide fresh cigars for all our guests. The cigars are included in price of a ticket and come at no extra cost!o

New Jersey Cigar Roller | The Mobile Cigar Lounge | NJ Cigar Roller








 with this 









Exactly whom do you think that Brian Fox is trying to attract to his fund raiser later today with this particular cigar pitch ???

Could it be some of Brian's old chums from his "Shark of Wall Street" days at "...  JP Turner..."; "...Legend Securities..."; "... SAC Capital...";  (and possibly "...National Securities*...") ?????

And is there some kind of hidden message being sent by Brian Fox and his team by this whole cigar thing ???????

_______________

*FYI:  in the article copied above seemingly entitled "Off the Cliff... STOP...  Investment Jitters..."  ---  the reporter Kate Kowsh mentioned that "Brian Fox [pictured above]" was a broker at a firm named "National Securities."  However, it should be noted that Brian Fox's currently posted resume of places of prior employment does not mention any Wall Street or elsewhere located brokerage firm named "National Securities".....

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE BRIAN FOX AND THE SOMEWHAT SECRET >>> BOCA RATON CONNECTION" EDITION

OUR RESEARCH ON THE PREVIOUSLY UNDISCLOSED EMPLOYMENT CONNECTION BETWEEN BRIAN FOX AND THE BROKERAGE (AND OTHER INVESTMENT SERVICES) FIRM "NATIONAL SECURITIES" SHOWED THAT ALTHOUGH IT TOO WOULD HAVE HAD NUMEROUS CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS AND FINRA VIOLATIONS DURING THE TIME THAT BRIAN FOX WOULD HAVE BEEN WORKING THERE --- IT WAS A PRETTY REPUTABLE FIRM COMPARED TO THE OTHER PLACES WHERE HE WORKED IN THE INVESTMENT/FINANCE GAME..... SO WHY SHOULD BRIAN FOX HAVE COVERED IT UP ???

THE ANSWER IS THAT IT WOULD HAVE DISCLOSED A CONNECTION TO BOCA RATON, FLORIDA --- PERHAPS EVEN A RESIDENCE THERE.....

ALL OF THAT WOULD ADD EVEN MORE TO THE SECRET PAST OF BRIAN FOX THAT NEITHER HE NOR HIS CAMPAIGN WANT THE VOTERS OF BROOKLYN TO KNOW ABOUT.....

Did justin ever resolve that lawsuit from the mentally disabled person he taunted?

Anonymous said...

Justin Brannan was never in any such lawsuit, so there was nothing to resolve. Just more lies from Brian Fox or one of his handlers.

Anonymous said...

What happened with Fox in Boca?

Why doesn't he want us to know about it?

Why are there so many questions abot Brian Fox this late into his campaign for City Council in Brooklyn.

How could justin not be involved in a lawsuit concerning a mentally disabled person in an office justin was in charge of?

Anonymous said...

509, your premise is incorrect. Actually, Justin was put "in charge" to clean up the mess with the staff after the fact.

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "ANOTHER FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL EVENT --- ANOTHER FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL FAILURE" EDITION

WHY DOES THE FOX CAMAPIGN CREW KEEP DOCUMENTING THE "NO-SHOW REALITY" OF THE BRIAN FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL CAMPAIGN ??? THEY DID IT AGAIN TODAY WITH FOX'S SCHNITZEL HAUS-MOBILE CIGAR LOUNGE FUND RAISER.....

JUST TOO MANY OF FOX'S SO-CALLED "SUPPORTERS" AND/OR "CONTRIBUTORS" SHOWED UP AT THE BAY RIDGE SCHNITZEL HAUS IMPECCABLY "WELL-DISGUISED" AS PRETTY MUCH EVERYBODY "BEING SOME PLACE OTHER THAN AT THE SCHNITZEL HAUS".....


It's all there on the Brian Fox for City Council Facebook page --- with more full-color photos (15) than paying full-fair donor-attendees at the Fox fund raiser earlier today.

There were 6 people at Brian's big Foxtober "bash" and 3 of them are on his payroll. Pathetic

RESPONSE: THE "TRY TO BE FAIR --- AND GIVE A FAIR COUNT" EDITION

TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 1:45 AM"

WE ARE PRETTY SURE THAT YOUR COUNT OF SIX (6) IS LOW --- HOWEVER, ONE THING IS FOR SURE
--- THERE WERE MANY MORE CIGARS WITH "BRIAN FOX 4 NYC" WRAPPERS IN THE BOX SHOWN ON FACEBOOK THAN THERE WERE GUESTS AT THE #FOXTOBERFEST FUND RAISER.....

WE TOOK A CLOSE LOOK AT THE PIX POSTED ON THE BRIAN FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL FACEBOOK PAGE ---
ONE SHOT CLEARLY HAD MORE FOLKS IN IT THAN THE REST --- THE FOX SPEECHIFYING SHOT SHOWED FIFTEEN (15) WARM BODIES (AND THAT INCLUDED BRIAN FOX HIMSELF)..... IF WE GIVE CREDIT FOR ANOTHER PERSON, THE LIKELY PHOTOGRAPHER, THATG WOULD COME TO SIXTEEN (16) --- AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE EXPERT CIGAR-ROLLER SO THAT WOULD BE SEVENTEEN (17)

WE STILL THINK THAT FIFTEEN (15) IS A PRETTY RELIABLE ESTIMATE OF THE NUMBER OF ATTENDEES --- HOW MANY PAID THE FULL FREIGHT IS ANYBODY'S GUESS


Here's how Brian Fox described it: "...#Foxtoberfest was a great success! The turnout and energy was unbelievable!..."

"A GREAT SUCCESS !!!!!" --- THIS GUY FOX ISN'T JUST A LIAR --- THIS GUY FOX ISN'T JUST DELUSIONAL --- THIS GUY FOX IS A DELUSIONAL LIAR.....

Wutcha gonna believe, what Fox tells you happened at his #Foxtoberfest, or your lyin' eyes ?????

Anonymous said...

Where was the leadership of the Brooklyn GOP and the Brooklyn Conservative Party at this Fox fund raiser; and where were the Republican and Conservative Party city-wide candidates, like Sliwa and Pepitone?

With less than a few weeks to go to election day, that shows that candidate Brian Fox is very far down on the list for Sunday afternoon appearances by the GOP and Conservative "big guns".

Was this whole cigar rolling thing a scam for the Brian Fox for City Council to buy a bunch of cigars for Brian and Liam?

THERE SEEMS TO BE NO LIMIT ON THE PHONY STUFF THAT BRIAN FOX HAS CLAIMED OVER THE YEARS --- EVEN BEFORE HE WAS RUNNING FOR PUBLIC OFFICE

Wait 'til Brian Fox tries to tell anybody that he is the only candidate running for the City Council in the 43rd Council DIstrict that graduated from a "Big Ten" university.

NOW, >>> THAT <<< WILL BE A LOL MOMENT.....

10:48 is bob who still hasnt figured it out. The GOP & Con leadership will never back you.

Fox statements in that post article are spot on. Fox knows how to stimulate the economy.

Anonymous said...

All that Brian Fox said in the sidebar squib by Kate Kowsh was that >>> HE <<< was upset, because people might be afraid to invest. That sounds kind of selfish to me, since he was a broker for National Securities at the time he made that quote.

Galewyn Massey said...

DEEP BACKFILL: THE "SHARK OF WALL STREET PIX IN THE POST" EDITION

IN 2015 BRIAN FOX POSTED THE KATE KOWSH BLURB THAT MENTIONED HIS LITTLE QUOTE IN THE NEW YORK POST ALONG WITH HIS PICTURE IN FRONT OF A PICTURE OF WALL STREET..... IN 2015 FOX SEEMED QUITE PROUD OF IT --- EVEN THOUGH HE HAD LEFT INVESTING BEHIND (WELL, ONLY >>> MAYBE <<< LEFT INVESTING BEHIND), AND HAD MOVED INTO I-T RECRUITING FOR NIGEL FRANK INTERNATIONAL.....

The Kate Kowsh little sidebar article (pictured in the main post above) was probably originally done in 2012 or 2013..... That would make things very interesting indeed, because according to Brian Fox's most recently posted work history, during that two year period he seems to already have had overlapping employment at Nigel Frank International and JP Turner & Company. If one were to now throw in the broker position at National Securities, that means that Brian Fox was working at three places simultaneously. What a guy, what a guy, what a guy !!!!!

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "LIAM SAYS IT'S A GREAT VIDEO --- SO SOMETHING MUST BE WRONG WITH IT" EDITION

FINALLY >>> BRIAN FOX AND HIS CAMPAIGN TEAM HAVE COME UP WITH A PRODUCT WORTHY OF USE IN A MODERN AND UP-TO-DATE CAMPAIGN FOR PUBLIC OFFICE >>> IT'S A WELL-PRODUCED VIDEO AD AND SOCIAL MEDIA SEGMENT WITH SOLID PRODUCTION VALUES --- GOOD VISUALS, GOOD SOUND AND AND GOOD EDITING --- IT DELIVERS AND DRIVES HOME THE BRIAN FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL NARRATIVE IN A STRAIGHT FORWARD, CONVINCING AND EASILY UNDERSTOOD WAY.....

SO, WHAT'S THE CATCH ?

WE DON'T LIKE MOST OF WHAT WE'VE SEEN ABOUT THE FOX CAMPAIGN TO DATE --- WE HAVE BEEN HYPERCRITICAL ABOUT BOTH FOX AND HIS CAMPAIGN TO DATE --- AND WE HERE AT THIS INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN BLOG CLEARLY DO NOT SUPPORT THE BRIAN FOX CANDIDACY FOR CITY COUNCIL IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM >>> BUT THIS VIDEO DOES LOOK AND SOUND PRETTY GOOD

SO, IS THERE ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT ???

WELL, THE FACT THAT LIAM MC CABE LIKES IT SHOULD BE A TIP-OFF.....

WHEN DID LIAM MC CABE EVER SIGN OFF ON ANYTHING THAT DIDN'T HAVE A CRACK IN IT --- OR SOME OTHER SERIOUS FLAW ?????


The most recent video that Brian Fox has posted on his Brian Fox for City Council Facebook page (--- it's been the lead item for almost a whole day, now ---) is a very well-produced ad containing almost all of Brian Fox's biggest lies and false narratives. Starting with his descriptions of himself as a "Brooklyn neighbor," a "local businessman," and his not being your typical "politician" --- then going on to his biggest "BIG LIE" about the NYPD having been "DEFUNDED" when they never were, or the "ELIMINATION OF CASH BAIL" which hasn't been eliminated --- and capping it all off with his hollow politician's promises about what he will do as a City Councilman if he is elected.

This is a superficiously good ad, with a lot of bad stuff in it ---and, of course, somebody like Liam McCabe would like it.

A LITTLE MORE BACKFILL: THE "... AND THEY THINK >>> THAT THEY THINK" EDITION

SOMETIMES THE SLIGHTEST LITTLE THING STRIKES OUR FANCY --- THIS HAPPENED TO BE ONE OF THEM: ONE OF BRIAN FOX'S TOP FANS, KIETH ATHERHOLT --- "IN THE WEE SMALL HOURS OF THE MORNING WHEN ALL THE WORLD IS FAST ASLEEP..." --- POSTED A COMMENT AFTER YESTERDAY'S BRIAN FOX VIDEO/AD ON THE FOX CAMPAIGN FACEBOOK PAGE --- YOU SEE, IT SEEMS THAT KIETH A. THINKS THAT "... EVERYTHING [BRIAN FOX] SAYS IS TRUE...."


Here's the comment itself, as it appeared on Facebook very early this morning:
"Keith Atherholt... [@ 1:45 AM, 10/19/2021]... the one thing that struck me about this video is EVERYTHING HE SAYS IS TRUE!!!!"

Aside from the fact that almost NOTHING Brian Fox said in his video/ad was true, this Atherholt comment shows what happens when a Fox supporter asserts that they "THINK" something. They always make at least two errors of fact when they tell you what they "think": the first is that they think that they can think; the second happens when they express their thought openly for the rest of us to hear what they think they were thinking.

10:55 which is justin is correct. The crowd that was on Ovington and 4th was not homeless. They all had the same clothes. These are the migrants flown up to Westchester and bussed to location around the city.

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "FINDING BRIAN FOX VOTERS EVERYWHERE" EDITION

FOX TEAM PLAYERS LIKE JENNIFER MOORE SAY THAT THEY ARE FINDING LOTS OF PRO-BRIAN FOX VOTERS AS THEY CAMPAIGN DOWN IN THE SUBWAY ALONG THE FOURTH AVENUE LINE

EVERYBODY ON TEAMFOX SEEMS TO AGREE THAT THEY CAN'T BELIEVE THAT IT IS ONLY TWO WEEKS UNTIL ELECTION DAY.....


A few people doidng subway lit distribution in the subways in the last two weeks of the campaign is not any kind of game-changer.

Let's see what happens next.....

I was planning to vote for justin but hes just gone. Nowhere to be found. At least Fox has the gumption to stand up to the Biden administation.

Has Brian Fox knocked on a single door? He looks very winded and unhealthy. Too much snow in October if you catch my drift.

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "RUNNING VERY HARD WITH "THE BIG LIES" HERE --- BUT WHO IS IT THAT'S RUNNING ???" EDITION

A LITTLE AFTER NOON TODAY, BRIAN FOX JUST DROPPED ALL PRETENSE --- AND HE RE-POSTED A FACEBOOK POSTING BY LIAM MC CABE AND MOSTLY ABOUT LIAM MC CABE.....

IS THIS THE BRIAN FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL CAMPAIGN ? --- OR --- IS IT THE CAMPAIGN THAT LIAM AMBROSE MC CABE WANTED TO RUN AGAINST JUSTIN BRANNAN, INSTEAD OF HAVING TO BACK THE GOP-CONSERVATIVE NOMINEE IN 2017 JOHN QUAGLIONE ???

THE ONLY THINGS NEW FOR LIAM IN 2021 ARE THESE TWO BIG LIES >>> 1. BRIAN FOX <<< AND >>> 2. "DEFUND THE POLICE" <<<

OBVIOUSLY, LIAM MC CABE WAS GOING TO RUN SOMEBODY (OR POSSIBLY RUN HIMSELF) AGAINST COUNCILMAN JUSTIN BRANNAN, EVEN IF IT WAS ONLY TO GNAW ON LIAM'S FAVORITE BONE >>> THE VERY, VERY FALSE "DEFUND THE POLICE" MEME <<< SO THAT CLEARLY CAME FIRST.....

WHAT CAME NEXT WAS LIAM'S FINDING AN EMPTY SUIT (OR IN THIS CASE, EMPTY & UNZIPPERED FLEECE VEST) --- AND BOY, DID BRIAN FOX EVER FIT THAT BILL FOR LIAM PERFECTLY !!! --- HE'S THE MAN FROM NOWHERE THAT HE'D CARE TO TALK ABOUT; WHO NEVER DID ANYTHING THAT HE WANTS TO ADMIT TO; AND WHO NEVER HAD AN ORINIGAL THOUGHT THAT HE IS CAPABLE OF EXPRESSING IN ANYTHING RESEMBLING A GENERALLY RECOGNIZED OR RECOGNIZABLE LANGUAGE

Unfortunately, my comment can't include the spectacular picture of Liam Mack, which made his posting POP --- but here is what Liam posted and Brian Fox re-posted, both on Facebook:
"Liam Ambrose McCabe is feeling hungry with Brian Fox for City Council and Brian Fox in Brooklyn, New York... [@ 12;00 Noon, 10/20/2021]... #MeanStreets #NYC #HitThePavement #ConcreteJungle #Election2021 #Fox4theFix"

Liam's hand is visibly up his puppet's butt, and you can always see that Liam's lips are moving whenever Brian is supposed to be talking.

My only question is whether Liam thinks that all of this won't land on his head when it's all over.

QUERY: THE "IS THERE SOME KIND OF BIG PROBLEM HERE ???" EDITION

WHY IS THIS PARTICULAR ENDORSEMENT MISSING FROM THE BRIAN FOX LIST OF ENDORSEMENTS >>> NICK LANGWORTHY AND THE NYS GOP <<<

Just a few days ago, the GOP-Conservative Party City Council candidate from the 48th Council District Inna Vernikov tweeted this:

“…InnaVernikov for NYC @InnaVforNYC... Thank you Chairman of @NewYorkGOP... @NickLangworthy for your support and endorsement! And for traveling all the way from Buffalo! #votered...."

and there was this from the NYS GOP:

"... New York GOP@NewYorkGOP... City Council District 48 in Brooklyn is ready to elect ... InnaVernikov@InnaVForNYC... and bring much needed change to NYC. Chairman @NickLangworthy was proud to campaign with her today and fully endorses her campaign to restore common the City Council...."

We here at this independent Republican blog remembered no such similar announcement from Brian Fox and/or the Brian Fox for City Council campaign --- so, we checked back and looked very hard. Guess what ??? Nothing like that showed up on Fox's and/or his campaign's social media, on our internet searches, or even on Fox's own campaign homepage list of endorsements.....

So now, we do have to ask >>> WHY AT THIS VERY LATE DATE IS THERE SOME PROBLEM THAT'S HOLDING UP THE NYS GOP'S ENDORSEMENT OF BRIAN FOX'S CANDIDACY FOR THE NYC COUNCIL ?????

We think that a good person to ask might be Brooklyn GOP Chairman Ted Ghorra. >>> After all, he is only the Kings County GOP Chairman by the graces of State GOP Chairman Nick Langworthy. --- And they were quite together there on the boardwalk, when Langworthy came to town to announce the NYS GOP endorsement of the Brooklyn GOP's Inna Vernikov, the now-jointly endorsed candidate for the City Council from the 48th Council District, which isn't very far from the 43rd City Council District neighborhoods where Brian Fox is running.....
