With less than 100 days until election day, the Brooklyn GOP is wasting time with low energy and minimally funded campaign events --- largely focusing on Bay Ridge

 

Last night, Brian Fox, Vito LaBella, Alec Brook-Krasny, and Dimitri Kugel made up about half of the walking crew mustered by their joint campaigns and the Brooklyn GOP to work the rest of the crowd on Fifth Avenue in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn


 
You don't have to believe us at this independent GOP blog for Brooklyn and Staten Island  ---   just look at the pictures that they have chosen to show off their version of "successful campaigning" in 2022




And of course there is Brian Fox's own word-picture of just how he saw things:

"Brian Fox for City Council... Friday, July 29,2022 at 10:54 PM...  The 1st Fun on Fifth of the year went of to a great start, it was great seeing many of my supporters and many new people. We played some games, had some great food and most importantly had great conversations with a lot of great people. Always happy to campaign with our great candidates Alec Brook-Krasny, Republican for State Assembly, Vito LaBella, Dmitriy Kugel and the Vice Chairman of the Brooklyn GOP Richie Barsamin. See you guys at the next one!..."




Yes, once again, it's there in beautiful black & white >>> "... We ... had some great food...." If it's about the Brian Fox campaign in 2022, it's all about the food. --- Yep !!! It's right there near the top of his own list.

It's now official --- We are from the government --- we are here to lie to you --- and we will investigate you to see if you don't believe us when we lie to you

 

And the mainstream and othe media  ---  pfffft !!!   They have been with the govenment for quite some time..... 

 
The same for academia.....


It was once said that "... eveyman is entitled to his own opinions, but not his own facts..."  ---  that was never true, but it was once said.....  


Now, as a representative of the govenment, we are here to tell you that  >>>  The govenment  has decided that to help avoid confusion, it will provide you with all the facts you need and all of the opinions that you need to have about those facts  ---  and because there will be no other information relevant to any of this, there will be no need for any questions




And to all you folks out there that think that you can think what you want to think how you want to think it  ---  just remember this:  no man is an island entire of itself; every clod is either a piece of the continent, or a part of the ocean; and even if called an "island," it's either a tiny spec of dried ocean floor or a migrating bit of a continental mainland  ---  and if a clod were to be washed away by the ocean, the mainland would be the lesser for it and the ocean greater, but not by much at all  ---  All men are involved in mankind  And all of mankind is but a part of the world as whole

.....  And we all back a universal green agenda, because we all want the whole world to be green, because all the world is Irish or wants to be.....

Former GOP Kings County Chairman Craig Eaton comes up with a truly creative idea --- in a one-shot, one-time deal, Eaton has suggested that GOP voters should re-enroll as Democrats for the 2022 Democratic Primary

 

It's a win-win for the Eaton faction of the Brooklyn GOP  ---  it allows them to influence some key Democrat races in heavily Democrat areas, and it saps the dwindling GOP strength for one of Eaton's local annoyances  ---  the present County Chairman of the Brooklyn Republican Organization, Ted Ghorra



Guess what ???   The current "Chair" doesn't like the idea of the prior "Chair"  ---  even just a little bit.....



What more needs to be said ?????

Without any announcement of his candidacy, Trump continued his re-election campaign to be the one and only President of these United States for these times in a speech in Washington, D.C.


Yesterday, former President Donald J. Trump dedicated much of his speech at the AFPI’s America First Agenda Summit to one of the main issues facing voters and their families in each and every community in every state in our union


During his address, Trump said public safety is one of the “core issues” facing the whole country  ---  specifically saying:  “There is no higher priority than cleaning up our streets, controlling our borders, stopping the drugs from pouring in, and quickly restoring law and order....”  


... And it's very much because we have allowed the Democrats to be in control of things in what have become the most terrible and dangerous parts of the country  


According to Trump  ---   fixing the problem will start with the next Congress and would continue on to the next Republican president  --- “We need an all-out effort to defeat violent crime in America and strongly defeat it and be tough and be nasty.”


The mainstream media that reported on Trump's speech immediately characterized Trumps anti-crime agenda as "HARSH !!!"  ---  but that was only after their stories' leads saying that Trump was still falsely claiming that the 2020 presidential election had been stolen



Trump didn't mince his words speaking in Washington in a virtual D.C. shootout with former VP Mike Pence.  

The once and future President of the United States declared that the country's survival was at stake in a speech that had been billed as one focused on public safety.  In it Trump said the country was in imminent danger from crime. Among his public safety agenda items, Trump called for strong support of local police, executing drug dealers, sending the homeless to encampments on the outskirts of towns and cities, and finishing his expanded Southwest border wall.

Here is some more of what President Trump said in his own words:   

“.... [Under] Democrat rule, in Democrat-run cities, Democrat-run states, and a Democrat-run federal government, the criminals have been given free rein more than ever before....  There’s never been a time like this. Our streets are riddled with needles and soaked with the blood of innocent victims....  [O]nce great cities” where the middle class used to flock, such as New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, are now crime-ridden warzones....  Every day, there are stabbings, rapes, murders, and violent assaults....  Bloody turf wars rage [and] parents are worried sick that their kids will get shot on the way to school....”

Then Trump zeroed in on the Democrats:  “We’re living in such a different country....  Our country is now a cesspool of crime. We have blood, death, and suffering on a scale once unthinkable because of the Democrat Party’s effort to destroy and dismantle law enforcement all throughout America. It has to stop, and it has to stop now....” 

The former president then described some specific recent violent incidents, and he recounted how criminals are now being arrested and released more than dozens of times; and that he could go on with these stories for months and years, because so many cases of crime now happen to innocent Americans all the time.
In summation. the undeclared candidate for President in 2024 declared  ---  “We owe it to the victims, we owe it to our families, and we owe it to our country to do the right thing....  [fixing the problem would all start with the next Congress and would continue] on to the next Republican president....  We need an all-out effort to defeat violent crime in America and strongly defeat it and be tough and be nasty....”

If you aren't a MAGA Republican --- and/ or --- you aren't ready to fight for President Donald J. Trump and the patriot spirit of January 6th, 2021 --- up until, and through to victory on January 6th, 2025.....

 ...  the real GOP in America doesn't need you onboard



There's still lots of fight left in the one and only true President of the United States for these times  >>>  Donald J. Trump



If there might have been any doubt, Trump erased that on Friday evening at his "Save America" rally in Prescott Valley, Arizona,  when he said this:

"....  If I announced that I was not going to run any longer for political office the persecution of Donald Trump would immediately stop....  But that is not what I do  ---  I can’t do that  ---   I can’t do that  ---  [I] can’t do that.  Because I love this country and I love you....”


Many have suggested that President Trump will again run for re-election. He strongly hinted that he would during the Friday night rally in Prescott Valley, Arizona, where he also proclaimed the following:  “I ran twice and I won twice; and I did much better the second time than the first, getting millions more votes in 2020 than in 2016...  the best by any sitting president in  American history....   And now, we may have to do it again.”

It's getting to be late July in an election year --- where many of us think that there will be a "Red Wave" of GOP victories across the country in elections for the U.S. Senate, the U.S. Congress, and countless statewide and and local elections, like here in New York --- so, why is it that Brian Fox is trying very hard to be a loser in a "Red Wave" --- AGAIN ???


 

Is this the best that Brian Fox can do in the last weeks of July 2022  ?????


"Brian Fox for City Council...  Thursday, July 21, 2021 at 8:35 PM...   [imogi] Endorsement Alert [imogi]...  I am privileged and honored to receive an endorsement from Frm. NYPD Chief Joseph Fox. His message of law and order is the exact same message I've been talking about ever since my City Council run....  Now more then ever, it’s important we elect common sense Republicans who will put our community first, bringing back our quality of life and support the men and woman in law enforcement. Thank you Chief Fox for your endorsement and continued support!...  












...."


and this:


"Rosemarie Rizzo is  [icon] attending Verrazzano Republicans July meeting with Hopester Mate and 2 others at Schnitzel Haus...  Thursday, July 21, 2021 at 8:35 PM...  My first time checking out the Verrazano Republicans July meet! Privilaged to listen and learn from Retired NYPD Chief Fox and chat with neighborhood council turned Senate Brian Fox. Let’s get #Sly Together and take back our #Community!

What's up with all this very low energy campaigning >>> only in Bay Ridge ???????



Just how many or few people were at Fox's very low energy "event" at the Schnitzel Haus --- it really looks like it was less than a bunch and fewer than a dozen.

Beware of a rather pathetic looking "SHARK" in the waters around Bay Ridge, Sunset Park (both along the shore and in the pool area), around Red Hook and in the Gowanus Basin and Canal


There have been five (5) documented shark attacks in waters along the beaches not far from the 26th State Senate District.....



Here is a picture of a shark that has been lurking in the area for quite some time now  ---  that picture was provided by Brian Fox  (it's an image of how Fox sees himself on one of his social media sites)



Be on the look-out for this shark  ---  even though he usually appears to be listless, lethargic and spastic, he has been known to "bite the big one" on occasion (some say even with some regularity)


We aren't saying that Brian Fox is lurking about looking to devour something of yours  ---  but  ---  we aren't saying he isn't going to do that either.

What is Brian Fox running for exactly ?

 
He says that he is running for the NY State Senate.....   But in which district exactly ???


Fox also says that he's running against Andrew Gounardes, but nothing suggests that Brian Fox knows anything about the latest boundaries of the state senate district in which Gounardes is running  ---  or the neighborhood makeup of that newly cut state senate district in any detail or by any description.....


So far, Fox's slow moving, low energy, no impact campaign hasn't made a real appearance, much less caused a ripple of interest, anywhere north of Leif Ericson Park ?????


 

As near as anybody can tell, this is typical of what Fox calls campaigning in 2022:

"Brian Fox for City Council was live....  July 13  at 7:54 PM...  Enjoying a great night, with some great music and great neighbors! Come stop by and meet us... If you would like to donate to our campaign our link is [link]... If you would love to volunteer, you can email us at [email address] or call us at [telephone #].... [Video at Bay Ridge Shorefront Park]"

John Quaglione's mis-identification of the "Salty Dog" as the site for a recent fatal stabbing unleashes a torrent of fuzzy thinking and hatred


What did a local watering hole on Third Avenue near 75th Street, the Salty Dog, have to do with what looks like a "domestic" issue that boiled over into a homicide on 76th Street between 3rd and 4th Avenues ???



Why didn't Quaglione mention Citibank and/ or the dry cleaners, also near 75th & 3rd  ---  or the Middle Eastern Restaurant and/or acting school and studio, much closer at the corner of 76th and 3rd ?????



Why does Republican Leader John Quaglione blame the Demorats and not the NYPD itself  ---  why didn't he ask  why the cops had to wait for a "report"  ---  why weren't they there at 325 76th Street to stop this crime before it happened  ---  why hadn't the NYPD been breaking down doors up and down 76th Street looking for criminals in the days and weeks leading up to this horrific crime that blighted Quaglione's beautiful Bay Ridge ??????????



A look at the comments thread responding to Quaglione's posting on Facebook shows all the FILTH that has infected the local Bay Ridge GOP under the leadership of Ghorra and Quaglione in recent years  ---  each and everyone of them potential members of a flying squad of black-shirted SQUADRISTI vigilantes, apparently willing to go out and break down their neighbors' doors to stop crimes in their community if the cops won't.....




After Quaglione's post on Facebook, these questions are left out there in a giant pregnant pause  >>>  Does Quaglione have a vendetta against the Salty Dog ???  Did Quaglione want to stoke up the usual GOP and Conservative Party harridans, harpies, and whooples  ?????   And does Quaglione want to shave his head, wear a military-style uniform, and call himself "Il Duce" ???????

In addition to fighting under a "FALSE FLAG" of GOP conservatism --- VITO LA BELLA --- makes false statements about his opponent's positions and certain legislation proposed in the NY State Senate


Not very long ago , Vito LaBella posted this on his campaign Facebook page: 

"Vito LaBella  >  Stop Critical Race Theory... Sunday, July 3, 2022 at 7:11 PM...  NY State is about to enshrine CRT tenets into their constitution.... [the LaBella post included a survey and mentioned a proposed NY State Senate resolution to amend the NYS Constitution]


This is what the cited Senate Resolution actually said and provides:

"... S51002 (ACTIVE) - SUMMARY...   Provides that no person shall be denied the equal protection of the laws of this state or any subdivision thereof; provides no person shall, because of race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, creed, religion, or sex, including sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes, reproductive healthcare and autonomy, be subjected to any discrimination in their civil rights by any other person or by any firm, corporation, or institution, or by the state or any agency or subdivision of the state...." 



and the actual wording of the resolution is as follows:

"CONCURRENT RESOLUTION OF THE SENATE AND ASSEMBLY... proposing an amendment to section 11 of article 1 of the constitution, in relation to equal protection... Section 1. Resolved (if the Assembly concur), That section 11 of article 1 of the constitution be amended to read as follows: ... § 11. A. No person shall be denied the equal protection of the laws of this state or any subdivision thereof. No person shall, because of race, color, ETHNICITY, NATIONAL ORIGIN, AGE, DISABILITY, creed [or], religion, OR SEX, INCLUDING SEXUAL ORIENTATION, GENDER IDENTITY, GENDER
EXPRESSION, PREGNANCY, PREGNANCY OUTCOMES, AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTHCARE AND AUTONOMY, be subjected to any discrimination in [his or her] THEIR civil rights by any other person or by any firm, corporation, or institution, or by the state or any agency or subdivision of the state, PURSUANT TO LAW... B. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL INVALIDATE OR PREVENT THE ADOPTION OF ANY LAW, REGULATION, PROGRAM, OR PRACTICE THAT IS DESIGNED TO PREVENT OR DISMANTLE DISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF A CHARACTERISTIC LISTED IN THIS SECTION, NOR SHALL ANY CHARACTERISTIC LISTED IN THIS SECTION BE INTERPRETED TO INTERFERE WITH, LIMIT, OR DENY THE CIVIL RIGHTS OF ANY PERSON BASED UPON ANY OTHER CHARACTERISTIC IDENTIFIED IN THIS SECTION.... §2. Resolved (if the Assembly concur), That the foregoing amendment be referred to the first regular legislative session convening after the next succeeding general election of members of the assembly, and,in conformity with section 1 of article 19 of the constitution, be published for 3 months previous to the time of such election."


NOTE:  Nothing about "Critical Race Theory".....



Lately, the Brooklyn Republican and Conservative Parties have participated in campaigns on behalf of candidates like Vito LaBella and Brian Fox, who routinely campaign by making false statements  >>>  just like the one Vito LaBella made last Sunday on Facebook, which is the immediate subject of this posting.

Such false campaigning might temporarily stoke up a gullible and uninformed base, however the inevitable result of such false campaigning is lost credibility and ultimately fewer votes from the public when election day actually comes around.  That's because what goes around, comes around.

It didn't take Vito LaBella very long to prove that he is a R.I.N.O. scumbag --- and completely unworthy of real Republicans and Conservative Party members' support

 

Here's the latest pablum puke on Facebook from this Republican pretender running for the NY State Senate  ---  as a so-called Republican & Conservative:  

"Vito LaBella...  Saturday, July 2, 2022 at 2:08 PM ...   I won't accept this 'Balkanization of America.'  I believe we can find middle ground on almost any issue. We just have to support common sense, middle of the road politicians...."


Generations of  "middle of the road" Republicans, who were only pretending to be conservatives, have done nothing but lose countless moral and intellectual battles to the Demo-rats that have almost always been well left-of-center  ---  resulting in the ongoing passage of item after item of the Demo-rats' leftist agenda


It looks like the Conservative Party had it right about Vito LaBella the first time around in 2022  ---  when they rejected LaBella, because he wasn't any kind of conservative Republican


For over a week now, we here at this independent Republican blog have repeatedly pointed out the shortcomings of Mr. LaBella as a conservative Republican candidate for his failure to address the overwhelming significance of the U.S. Supreme Court's "Dobbs" decision overturning "Roe v. Wade."   As part of that coverage of Vito LaBella's cowardly innaction and/or lack of any publically expressed opinion on abortion and/or protection of a woman's right to have access to an abortion  >>>  we concluded that LaBella was  --  at best  --  a R.I.N.O. pragmatist  ---  rather than a real contemporary Republican.

Vito LaBella more than confirmed our conclusion that he is no better than a R.I.N.O. pragmatist when he said this in his Facebook posting earlier today:  "...  I believe we can find middle ground on almost any issue. We just have to support common sense, middle of the road politicians...." 

That means that LaBella is more than willing to support some "common sense, middle of the road" Democrats over the more conservative Republicans that might be running against them.  We know that's true because he's done exactly that in the past.
