Brian Fox and the "FILTH" around him, like Tom Hilton, seem to think that being a cheering section for increased crime in and around Bay Ridge is what elected officials SHOULD BE DOING rather than actually fighting the crime itself

 


Confirming the conclusion that it's Brian Fox's belief and conviction  that  >>>  talking about problems is doing something about them  <<<


Fox, and his latest avatar and alterego, Tom Hilton, are chiding everybody, who don't abide by that clearly ridiulous view of reality  ---  and showing brash disdain for those actually fighting, and responsibly reporting on the actual crime stats, but living and functioning in the real world of police procedures and budgets, and good journalistic ethics and practices


Once again, we have the proof in the form of another Tom Hilton posting on Brian Fox's personal Meta-Facebook page, as follows:

The newest thing in campaigning --- a roll-out on square wheels --- and just who is really responsible for this new tactic

 

Well, well, well !!!  Who do YOU think is behind this latest clusterfuck inside the Brooklyn GOP ?????   


Here is some of the evidence:

Frankly, we here at this independent GOP blog for Brooklyn and Staten Island don't really know what to make of any of this jumble of stubbed toes and stumbles.....  This is even worse than anything that we have seen from Brian Fox or Liam McCabe to date,  although it does remind us a little of the whacky way that Liam rolled out his own 2017 candidacy for City Council, in spite of the Brooklyn GOP's obvious preference for John Quaglione.

But in any case, it really does look like a rollout on square wheels for any Brian Fox candidacy in 2022 for the assembly seat now held by Mathylde Frontus.

Irony of irony --- first trucker convoy to reach DC is from Biden's old home town --- Scranton, Pa.


Pennsylvanians are coordinating with other truckers from around the country.....   

News reporter asks the Scranton Convoy organizer Bob Bolus ---  "Have you been in touch at all with the truck convoy coming from California to exchange notes and ideas?”  

Bolus answers  ---  “We have had dialogue.... We've had conference calls and we're all on the same page. We're all for one thing: freedom and rights. It's America...."


The Scranton truck convoy is one of several headed toward the Washington, D.C., area.....

One such convoy left from California yesterday ---  Organizers with that group called it "The People’s Convoy"; and they had hoped that they would  have 1,000 semi-truck drivers departing from Adelanto, CAlifornia on Wednesday morning  [reports from local authorities state that about 100 big rigs, and 500 to 600 cars participated in the convoy departing from Adelanto  ---  one report said that in addition to the truckers, there were campers, pickups and SUVs with handwritten messages of support joining in a procession of vehicles trailing the trucks onto the highway]


Early indications are that the estimated number of actual trucks participating in the convoys are fewer than the organizers had hoped for.

WELL, WELL, WELL !!! What have we here ??? Is Foxy Loxy coming out of hibernation ?????

 

Brian Fox just posted this a little over an hour ago:

Excuse us if we think that Brian Fox is being very presumptious at this time.....

However, this might be very interesting.....

But, there might be less here than meets the eye.  After all, didn't good old BF make the same kinds of noises this time last year ???????

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


Neville Chamberlain was a giant of a man compared to Joe Biden --- Chamberlain went to Munich --- he didn't send Calamity Harris in his place


Meanwhile, as everybody else is looking at Russia and Eastern Europe  ---  the U.S. armed forces, Homeland Security, the FBI-CIA-NSA-DIA, and a panoply of other federal and local police authorities are being prepared for what Biden sees as the real looming threat to this nation  >>>  truckers bringing their protests to Washington, D.C. to upstage Biden's "State of the Union" Address


Seeing President Biden speak from his D.C. bunker yesterday made one proud to be an American  ---  his message that it is Americans that need to suffer in response to any Russian aggression in "... Ukraine..." just filled me with pride that Joe Biden clearly sees that the real villains here are Americans, and everybody like them that oppose $5.00-a-gallon-gasoline  ---  wait until he brings fully-masked Kamala back to go toe-to-toe with those villainous, and very likely barefaced, truckers


What more needs to be said, right now ?????

Brian Fox spreads more of his FILTH --- this time it's by posting a nakedly racist rant against Justin Brannan and others --- by one of Fox's accolytes, Tom Hilton

 
Here's the Hilton screed that Brian Fox posted on his personal Meta-FB space:

"Tom Hilton > Brian Fox...  [11:26AM, 2/21/2022]...  Justin Brannan is keeping busy fighting for HAITIAN IMMIGRANTS ! Yea, plenty of those in Justin's district. [imogies] >> The non-profit discretionary application workshop” [sic] featuring council members Farah Louis, Chi Osse, Rita Joseph and Justin Brannan, who represent districts in Brooklyn. << [with link to article in 'The Haitian Times']...."


Just ignore Hilton's/ Fox's bad syntax and typos, that's also apparently part of their style.....

The main point here is that >>> some people just can't help themselves, because they can only build themselves up at the expense of others. Tom Hilton and Brian Fox are exactly some of those kinds of people. It is always distasteful to see --- but this time it has really crossed the line, and it must be called out.....


How long is the Brooklyn GOP going to tolerate this kind of hateful, KKK-style, nativist FILTH ?????

Brian Fox is a hack's hack --- that's what he's been for over a year now --- and his social media shows that's all that he wants to be... but maybe, with a bit of "Nightmare Alley" thrown into it.....


Fox has shown us that he can bring something special to his aspirational hack-dom


For well over a month now, Brian Fox's Facebook postings and Tweets have been re-posts and/or re-Tweets of much of the  police and fire unions' PR stuff  ---  usually the items flogging the corpses of dead cops and firemen  ---  Fox's Facebook posting yesterday was typical.....


Let's call a spade a spade  >>>  Fox is a born grifter and conman.  >>>  So, it's natural for him to seek the aid and comfort of, and alliances with, other grifters and conmen  ---  in particular, the reps for and leaders of the illegal "unions" for NYC cops and firemen


However, "Grifters" and "Conmen" are only part of the descriptions that apply to the likes of the representatives and leaders of the cops' and firemen's unions  >>>  don't overlook the fact that they are also talentless "HACKS" and parasites on society and the body politic.....  


So, what does that make Brian Fox ???   Well, it sure looks like he is  ASPIRING  to be a "HACKS' HACK"   ---   however  ---  Fox's past antics show that he also brings something very special to the table  >>>  Brian Fox is willing to be a GEEK.....


[[[  NO !!!  Not a nerdlike "geek" like on "Big Bang Theory".....   Brian Fox aspires to be the up-front featured carnival midway kind of "geek" like in the 1947 & 2021 movies called "Nightmare Alley"]]]



Needles to say, Brian Fox is no Tyrone Power or Bradley Cooper  ---  but Fox does have a few of the traits of the movies' conman-grifter "Stan Carlisle" (he certainly doesn't exhibit any of the craftiness, or the ability to do the mental heavy lifting for the mind tricks that the Bradley Cooper and Tyrone Power protrayals demonstrated).  Both Fox and the main character in both of the movies have a sordid and criminal past, but more than anything else, Fox shares the carney performer "Stanton Carlisle's" willingness to do anything to fit into his successive environments  ---  often accompanied by the line,  "I was made for this...."  

As with so many complicated story lines for cautionary tales like "Nightmare Alley"  ---  Stan Carlisle's whole scheme came crashing down around him. In the end, the focal character is left trying to catch on with what's left of the carnival;  and when he's offered a chance to "temporarily play the geek"  ---  the Tyrone Power, Bradley Cooper, Brian Fox character answers  >>>  "I was made for this."

So, now, when it comes to his stepping-up to be a hacks' hack and a carnival show geek, BRIAN FOX CAN TRULY SAY   >>>   "I WAS MADE FOR THIS....."

A man on the left bells the cat --- and that pussy with the bell around its neck is NYC Mayor Eric Adams


What's it all about ???


Tuesday, the Mayor of New York City said this at City Hall  ---  "I’m a Black man that’s the mayor, but my story is being interpreted by people who don't look like me....  How many Blacks are on editorial boards?  How many Blacks determine how these stories are being written?"


Is the mayor's quick resort to to racial identity politics a sign of his thin skin  ---  or an augury that Mayor Eric Adams might be more of a divider than a uniter ?????


According to Bay Ridge's own Ross Barkan  ---   "It’s a self-serving political strategy, canny and divisive, with only one true goal in mind: intimidate left-leaning reporters....  Make them give ground out of guilt..."



Mayor Eric Adams is making a cynical bid for the largely white New York City press corps to give him more favorable  ---  posssibly  even propagandistic ---  coverage.  However, there is very deep irony here, because the new mayor has pretty much been winning friendly media coverage since entering office. He had enjoyed the almost unstinting loyalty of the New York Post, which celebrated Adams' crusade against the no-cash bail laws and his apparent alliances with many of New York City's business elite  ---  and local television news, which now seems dedicated to crime stories fed to an aging audience, while at the same time being increasingly alienated from the younger generation's progressive movement, is a pro-Adams domain.  
 
Yesterday. Ross Barkan wrote this about something that happened a couple of days ago:   "...  On Tuesday, Eric Adams, the new mayor of New York City, delivered a searing indictment of the journalists covering him. 'I’m a Black man that’s the mayor, but my story is being interpreted by people who don't look like me,' Adams said at City Hall. 'How many Blacks are on editorial boards? How many Blacks determine how these stories are being written?'...    Adams [was] speaking to a gathering of reporters who had received a personal invite to be there...  [and he] threatened to stop taking questions from reporters unrelated to the specific announcements he was making. That afternoon, he was touting an increase in job opportunities for the summer youth employment program....  The [mayor's] rancor was prompted by the media coverage of Adams’ first trip to Albany as mayor. There, he tried and failed to convince Democrats in the State Assembly and Senate to reverse the partial elimination of cash bail, a reform made in 2019, and scrap a law that forbids defendants under 18 from being tried as adults. Since Adams has staked much of his mayoralty on lowering the crime rate, he is committed to the view that weakening criminal justice reforms is the way to get there....   'I went to the Assembly conference. People raised the issues that they had and we talked. Black mayor, Black Speaker, Black majority leader, coming together and talking to each other,' Adams complained on Tuesday. 'And if you would have turned on the news this morning, you would have said, "It was all hell up there." ’..."   (See" Eric Adams Wields His Weapon of Identity -- It didn't take long" by Ross Barkan, 2/16/2022,  Political Currents by Ross Barkan [https://rossbarkan.substack.com/p/eric-adams-wields-his-weapon-of-identity?r=56w8p&fbclid=IwAR1dMmzyamjZMW_KJRKZZJ31d9r8eD5hld5HI4rEX1g-ZcTpLVcVXYwjfyE]).

According to Barkan what Mayor Adams did was a very base appeal to racial identity politics;  and it was intended to bully the press and other media into giving him lock-step favorable coverage.

To be sure, the article was written from Barkan's decidedly leftish journalistic and solidly progressive socio-economic perspective,  however it does bespeak unease even in leftish circles with the use of racial identity as a tool for certain purposes, and by by certain people in power  ---  in this case Eric Adams.....

Nonetheless, even though this ultimate admonition by Mr. Barkan appears to be addressed to the solidly left and left-leaning members of the press and media   ---  everybody should take it to heart:  
"....  What to do then?  Journalists covering Adams shouldn’t back down. They should not allow him to shape their coverage or bully them into sanding the edges off of what they do. Journalists should not be expected to reproduce press releases coming out of City Hall. Holding power to account is what an effective press corps does. Above all else, journalists should not regard Adams’ commentary with anything approaching good faith. It’s a self-serving political strategy, canny and divisive, with only one true goal in mind: intimidate left-leaning reporters, of which there are many, into treating him even more kindly. Make them give ground out of guilt. Will it work? Only if the reporter class lets it...."

The latest Durham filing about possible computer spying and planting false evidence of computer data on Trump the man, and Trump the President finally have been acknowledged by the NY Times, Washington Post, and NBC News

 
The NY Times is trying to explain it all away as either nothing at all  --- OR ---  something so technical, complicated and circuitous that it can't be reported upon as a normal news story  >>>  in other words,  their article about what's contained in the Durham filing is a very busy word salad covered with lots of very spiced up dressing, and little else of note [except as specifically mentioned at the end of this post]


The WAPO coverage was a little more than a "Bump" sort of article  ---  this is old news  --- it was all investigated before  ---  and it was all debunked a long time ago.....  Basically, the latest Durham filing is not adding anything very new to this old story, because it's the same old whine by the same old whiners


NBC News, on the otherhand, seems to have made a report about Special Prosecutor Durham's latest filing that seems to be rather straight forward  ---  espcially compared to the NY Times' and WAPO's coverage.....


Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board is saying that  ---  "Trump Really Was Spied On..." and that  "....  Durham says techies linked to the Clinton campaign had access to White House and Trump Tower internet data...."


According to the editorial in today's Wall Street Journal,  "....  In a new legal filing, the special counsel says a tech company that had access to Trump's internet communications shared that data with operatives working for the Clinton campaign in 2016....  Special Counsel John Durham continues to unravel the Trump-Russia 'collusion' story, and his latest court disclosure contains startling information. According to a Friday court filing, the 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign effort to compile dirt on Donald Trump reached into protected White House communications....  The filing relates to Mr. Durham’s September indictment of Michael Sussmann, a lawyer who represented the Clinton campaign while he worked for the Perkins Coie law firm. Mr. Sussmann is accused of lying to the FBI at a September 2016 meeting when he presented documents claiming to show secret internet communications between the Trump Organization and Russia-based Alfa Bank. The indictment says Mr. Sussmann falsely told the FBI he was presenting this information solely as a good citizen—failing to disclose his ties to the Clinton campaign...."

Here's how NBC News handled the same material in an article yesterday by Tom Winter  >>>  "A tech executive 'exploited' his access to computer data at the Trump White House to find “derogatory information” about President Donald Trump, a special counsel appointed during the Trump administration said in a court filing Friday....  John Durham, appointed by then-Attorney General William Barr in 2020 to probe the origins of the FBI’s investigation of Russian election interference, said 'Tech Executive-1,' not named in the filing but first identified by The New York Times as Rodney Joffe, used his access to domain name system, or DNS, data to compile information about which computers and servers the White House servers were communicating with....  Trump and his allies said the disclosure was proof that Trump was under surveillance while he was in office. 'They were spying on the sitting president of the United States,'  Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, told Fox News on Sunday. 'And it goes right to the Clinton campaign.'  In a statement Monday, Trump said the alleged spying was 'the biggest story of our time, bigger than Watergate.'..."

Later on in his article for NBC News, Tom Winter wrote that  ---  "... In the filing Friday, prosecutors said 'Tech Executive-1' gave Sussmann data about communications between computer servers at the EOP, two Trump-owned buildings in New York and an unrelated medical firm in Michigan with Russian-made cellphones near the White House. The information collected dated from 2014, during the Obama administration, to February 2017....  According to prosecutors, Sussmann gave the data to an unnamed federal agency at a meeting on Feb. 9, 2017, 20 days into the Trump administration, and said the data 'demonstrated that Trump and/or his associates were using supposedly rare, Russian-made wireless phones in the vicinity of the White House and other locations.'...”

And this:  "....  According to prosecutors, Sussmann did not disclose to the agency, identified by The New York Times as the CIA, that he was working for a client when he provided the report, when he was actually representing 'Tech Executive-1,' aka Joffe....   Legal experts said Sussmann could face additional legal exposure if he failed to disclose his relationship to Joffe....  In a statement, a spokesperson for Joffe said, 'Contrary to the allegations in this recent filing, Mr. Joffe is an apolitical internet security expert with decades of service to the U.S. Government who has never worked for a political party, and who legally provided access to DNS data obtained from a private client that separately was providing DNS services to the Executive Office of the President (EOP).'..."   

As a result of various reports on various media outlets at various times, there is now a concensus that "Tech Executive-1" is Rodney Joffe.....  Joffe's identity as "Tech Executive-1" had been disclosed at the end of September, 2021 by CNN, and also reported in the NY Post, when Prosecutor Durham had sought to subpena more documents of Michael Sussman and the Perkins Coie Law Firm.  However, it is not clear whether Joffe was working "under contract" for the Clinton Campaign, which is not likely, or the Obama White House, which is more likely, at the time all of this went down; and/or to what extent he had been interacting with Michael Sussman on these matters.  

However, it should be noted that something, which the NY Times did report was this tidbit   >>>  "....  Another paragraph in the court filing said that Mr. Joffe’s company, Neustar, had helped maintain internet-related servers for the White House, and that he and his associates 'exploited this arrangement' by mining certain records to gather derogatory information about Mr. Trump...."

OMG !!! Our recently re-elected Councilman from the 43rd District --- JUSTIN BRANNAN --- must be worried about the "TRUCKER CONVOYS" coming to get him

 

Why else would Boss Brannan be re-Tweeting stuff about some false flag Romanian operation to jinn-up the truckers here in the USA  >>>  but at the same time be telling us that the "threat" of trucker convoys is real in this country ???


Oddly, Boss Brannan's re-Tweeted warning about the truckers was being sounded for L.A. and D.C.  ---  but nothing about NYC  ---   So, what's the relevance ?


Here's the money shot:  "... some of them are now very real, and they’re really planning something...."


And ---  as some people sometimes say:  WHO KNOWS..... 


Maybe, cigar-chompin' Justin knows more than he's sayin' right now.....  Maybe, the NYPD Intelligence folks are hearing a little of this and a little of that on the wind.....  Or DHS has samething.....

All we here at this independent GOP blog know is that Stephen Sondheim once wrote "Something's Coming";  and part of it went like this: 

"Could be !!!   Who knows ???

There's something due any day;
[We] will know right away,
Soon as it shows.
It may come cannonballing down through the sky,
Gleam in its eye,
Bright as a rose!
...
With a click, with a shock,
Phone'll jingle, door'll knock,
Open the latch!
Something's coming, don't know when, but it's soon;
...
The air is humming,
And something great is coming!
Who knows? 
...  
Maybe, tonight...  Maybe, tonight...  MAYBE, TONIGHT !!!!!

What is the matter with Ted Ghorra's bra-a-a-a-a-a-y-in ??? Why does he think that another buffoon named "Vito" has any chance going against Andrew Gounardes ?????

 

Maybe, Ted wants to go back to "Once Upon a Time"  ---  even into the last millennium, when another retired cop that gamed the system big time, and was barely able to sit underneath a willow tree without falling of his banket, but still got elected, and re-elected, and re-elected, and sometimes even ran un-opposed.....  But, that was once upon a time, a long, long time ago.....  But  then  ---  that retired cop stopped getting re-elected.....  And now the tree and the blanket are gone.....


This guy Vito LaBella seems to check all the right boxes  ---  he's a retired cop, whose record "on the job" shows that he really did game the system better than if he were a "Prince of the City" back in the (Marty ???) golden days for certain cops.....


But it doesn't stop there  >>>  the fine fellow   ---  "Vito LaB..." ---  is a professional and certified, card-carrying buffoon (AEA, AFTRA-SAG  ---  and boy, you could and should see some of his buffoonery on his video "Vito LaBella From Mechanic to Tycoon to Perv to Turkey" [https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=313517622704852]...)


Wait there's still more  ---  and this bonus is better than the "Ginsu Knives"  ---  for being a Twenty-first Century "Law & Order"-style Republican  >>>  Vito LaBella has been pre-measured, pre-shrunk and pre-tested, and he is fully vetted and vested as your typical Northeastern City White Racist Activist in the field of education  ---  whose controversial remarks and statements have led to calls for his removal from educational advisory boards, and also calls for the firing of a local School Superintendant for tolerating his racism


WOW !!!  Way to go, Ted, it looks like you've picked another winner !!!!!

Thursday, February 10, 2022

Does this sound like a "Law & Order" kind of candidate to you ???


Just last year, in the 2021 election cycle, candidate Alec Brook-Krasny said that he considered himself lucky to have been in a position to have had his day in court on a raft of crimnal charges, which had been brought against him  --- because he said that he "had the money" to pay a great team of lawyers.....


But here's the rest of the story

---  Brook-Krasny also has said that countless other defendants would never get the chance to properly defend themselves, because >>>   ".... Without access to top lawyers, without resources, without a support system, anyone can fall through the cracks....  

[I will fight for] those people, the overlooked, ignored, forgotten.... 

[I will fight to] ensure that our justice system provides the necessary tools to help people not [to need the luck that I had].... 

[I will fight for] laws like the expanded right to counsel, discovery reform, and increased funding for alternatives to incarceration.... 

[I will fight for] all positive steps towards a justice system that is equal and bent toward compassion for all it serves....” 


Alec Brook-Krasny is running for office again in 2022  ---  however, this time he's running as a Republican..... 



It's been reported that  >>>   Alec Brook-Krasny, a former Democratic Member of the NYS Assembly from Brooklyn, switched his party designation to Republican, and he is planning to make a run for his old assembly seat, which is largely in Brooklyn's red-trending southern neighborhoods.  As part of all that, he now says that he is fed up with his old Democratic Party's swing towards that party's leftish “progressive” wing  ---  with it's soft-on-crime policies.   

In spite of his recents stands, like the ones shown in the sub-headlines above,  Alec Brook-Krasny is now saying stuff like this: 

“I can’t believe everything that’s going on in the Democratic Party, all the calls to ‘defund the police,’ the cancel culture....  It goes against my character and my nature....  I think this is just the beginning. I think we will see a trend. I’ve tried for a long time, but I don’t think I can change the Democratic Party from the inside out, so it’s time to work from the outside....”

WE DON'T NEED A REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE THAT WAS RECENTLY MUCH SOFTER ON CRIME AND CRIMINALS   ---  AND WHO THINKS IT'S HIS JOB TO CHANGE THE DEMOCRAT PARTY TO WHAT IS WAS WHEN HE WAS MORE COMFORTABLE BEING IN IT

Tuesday, February 8, 2022

Let's Go Brandon !!!!! No, really..... That phrase might be really meaningful in a completely different way in the 2022 election cycle

 

If Brandon West really does a run against Robert Carroll, the incumbent Democrat running in a very different re-drawn 44th Assembly District, the repercussions might reach all the way down into the Southwest Brooklyn Districts extending into Bay Ridge


West is a hardcore New Kings Democrat "progressive"  ---  and Carroll is a more traditional "reformer" in the very Twentieth Century mold of the Carroll family of Democrats

  

Starting at the top of the ticket  >>>  Brando West supports Jumaane Williams for NYS Governor  ---  and it looks like Bob Carroll is for Governor Kathy Hochul


But it gets really interesting in the very north end of the Brooklyn-Staten Island Congessional District   >>>  WOW !!!  That could be especially interesting in the shared election districts in the overlapping new 11th Cong. DIst. and the new 44th A.D.  ---  you know, where Bill deBlasio lives  <<<


In Bay Ridge, the cigar chompin' Dem Boss Brannan ain't the kind of guy to stay out of  neighboring areas  ---  especially if he has some unfinished business with people named "Carroll."

Now, that IS Democrat primary stuff....  But Republicans wouldn't be hurt at all by a bloodbath of Democrat "friendly fire" victims in the 2022 primaries.....

Is Brook-Krasny with a few smudges on his resume the perfect fit to clean up the filth in & on the Brooklyn GOP --- or is he just more of the same

 

Some people think that Alec Brook-Krasny is going to put that very swarthy look-alike for the liquid cleanser avatar "Mr. Clean"  >>> Brian Fox <<<  back into his bottle, and stick that bottle at the back of a cabinet under the kitchen sink  >>> where it belongs


Others think that the recent GOP convert from a bygone generation of so-called "conservative" Brooklyn Democrats is just somebody, who isn't very new, and is just more of the same filth and rot that has become a chronic infection in, around, and all through the Brooklyn GOP


We here on this independent GOP blog think that the likelihood is that any comparison between Mr. Brook-Krasny and Mr. Fox is like trying to clarify and distinguish muck from mire.....  No, maybe that's a little overly skeptical, and certainly a little harsh.....  Let's say that we here "suspect" that's the case, rather than we "think" that's the case.....


Whatever else Alec Brook-Krasny might be, he is certainly a better candidate to run against Democrat Mathylde Frontus in the newly-drawn 46th Assembly District than Brian Fox would be.  And Brook-Krasny's availability to run in the 46th AD should lead most astute GOP leaders to lean on Brian Fox to just stay out of that district; and they'll push Fox to run elsewhere, if they want him to run at all.....

Taken as a whole, the new district lines for congress, state senate, and assembly in and including the neighborhoods of Southwest Brooklyn are a gerrymandered mess

 

The new lines do not create districts that are either compact or contiguous


The NYS senate lines are the worst  ---  Savino's district has two very separated Brooklyn elements that are connected only by the waters touching the shores of Staten Island and Brooklyn  ---  the Gounardes district is all full of snaking slivers and one watery connection across the mouth of Sheepshead Bay


Nicole Malliotakis actually has the least to complain about  ---  and Toonces made out the best and seems OK on the Brooklyn side of the bridge


It's a good thing that the NYS Legislature didn't have some more time, or they might have tried some stuff that could have been even more complicated. one-sided, and outrageous 



It sure looks like the NYS laws and NYS Constitution were violated in a heavy-handed and gross excercise of political might in Albany.  

The best way to overturn any of these lines is to first attack the WHOLE process, and the resulting combined completely gerrymandered jigsaw puzzle of districts in the NY state courts  ---  and hopefully, then getting such a case into the U.S. Supreme Court in a way that doesn't take forever.

The night the winds of disinterest blew out the candles --- and left everybody there to curse the darkness of their long nights of the soul in these times


On Tuesday evening, Brian Fox held an event that he called a "Candlelight Vigil" as his latest attempt to cash-in on the recent deaths of a pair of police officers, who died at the other end of New York City  


In spite of the "all hands on deck" attempts by Fox and his ilk to flog the corpses of these two poor dead men  ---  the event was very sparsely attended for something like this.  ---   If this were in any way an attempt to show community support for anything or anybody  >>>  IT WAS AN ABJECT FAILURE


But you don't have to believe us on this independent Republican blog for Brooklyn and Staten Island  >>>  Brian Fox re-posted these pix originally posted by "The Boy Wonder" Michael Demartino, Je., as a photographic record of the event, which was held at "Old Glory Lookout" on Shore Road in Bay Ridge: 

As you can see these few, these very few, are a mix of the usual Bay Ridge GOP -Conservative Party folks with a few NYPD -types mixed in to flesh out the "crowd."

===============

On January 27th, 2022, Brian Fox posted this announcement of his "EVENT" on his political campaign social media:  

"Brian Fox for City Council created an event... January 27, 2022 at 5:29 PM...
