Is it time to call it the NEW WATERGATE and unleash a new pro-republic, pro-constitutional special prosecutor on >>> FORMER PRESIDENT OBAMA <<< --- ?????
Rudy didn't pull his punches earlier today while being interviewed by John Catsimatidis on the radio --- he said that President Obama, his CIA Director and National Security Advisor all knew about the spying on the Trump election team during the 2016 campaign
This is an interview by the Big Cat that should drive the next few news cycles..... Here's how it was reported in "The Hill":
".... President Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani suggested on Sunday that former President Obama and his top intelligence officials 'knew' the FBI had used a top-secret informant to allegedly spy on Trump's 2016 campaign.... In an interview with radio host John Catsimatidis, Giuliani insisted that former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper were aware of the informant.... Giuliani also suggested that Brennan likely briefed Obama himself on the matter.... 'Brennan and Clapper knew about it. Brennan briefed him every day, Obama — well to the extent that he got briefed every day,' Giuliani said. 'You would have to have brought this up, wouldn't you? Gosh, I can't see how you would escape it.'..."
(See "Giuliani suggests Obama, top intelligence officials knew of 'spygate'" by Max Breenwood, 5/27/18, The Hill [http://thehill.com/homenews/sunday-talk-shows/389518-giuliani-suggests-obama-clapper-knew-of-spygate]).
That reform party is having trouble giving away the line for AG. Todays press is all about Preet Bharara getting AG nod but wont sign the acceptance. Preet also wont sign a voter registration card.

ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 9:01 AM"
I CAN SEE YOUR ARCHING SYNAPSES A MILE AWAY, CATSIMATIDIS-CAPANO-REFORM PARTY --- BUT THIS IS A TRUMP-OBAMA-WASHINGTON STORY THAT GOT SOME REAL JUICE ON TODAY'S CATSIMATIDIS ROUNDTABLE BROADCAST
As I said above, your Preet Bharara -- Reform Party comment is "interesting," but.....
Mueller wants the same thing Comey and clapper got. A book deal.
ReplyDeleteThe reform party has one choice.
ReplyDeleteTEACHOUT !!!
The Reform Party will endorse Golden this week
ReplyDeleteGolden already has the reform line
ReplyDeleteWhat wi 253 and 457 say when the Reform Party announces they are supporting Gournades????
ReplyDeleteAhahahahahahahahahahah
Eaton and Capano were already told to get in line behind Golden..
ReplyDeleteEaton has been in line
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to all the pro- and anti-Marty stuff, Eaton is mostly agnostic, and more important, he has deniability. That's all he wants, that's all he needs.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows Eaton can't stand Marty and wants him to lose, but Cats told him if he wants to still have any little relationship with him , he must not go against his guy Marty..thats what he's doing ...it's a sad situation for someone who fancies himself as a "kingmaker"..the biggest race in town with his known arch enemy and he is on the sidelines...if Marty wins he gets no credit, same if Andrew or Ross wins...a sad downfall indeed
ReplyDelete4:58, most of your comment is 'fake news.' Craig cares about only one little part of what you said, and the rest of it is flat out 100% wrong.
ReplyDeleteYou're all wrong about the Catsimatidis-Eaton conversations, and Cats and Craig are completely on the same page when it comes to/for/about Marty Golden right now.
BOTH EATON AND CATS WILL HAVE THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE 2018 ELECTIONS IN BAY RIDGE, each in their own way; and when there is a knife in Marty's back, there will be no clear fingerprints traceable to either Craig or John the Supermann.
As for the quiet 'kingmaker,' Craig still has it; just ask 'STATE GOP METRO VICE CHAIRMAN GHORRA" HMMM?
Now tell me about Marty getting the Reform Party 'endorsement' AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
So is Eaton with Golden or against him??????.
ReplyDeleteEaton is not with Golden.
ReplyDelete1131
ReplyDeleteSo Eaton is with Gournades ?? Barkan??
If can't answer this than 458am comments are right on the money!!

YOU'RE ALL CHAINED UNDER A ROCK --- AND WORSE YOU'RE PURBLIND FROM LIVING SO LONG IN THE DARK
To start on the road back, you need to read Plato's "Allegory of the cave" in "The Republic".....
It seems like everybody is getting the same feeling about Gournardes. The feeling is are we getting behind the right person?
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "OMG, IT'S TIME FOR A SONG" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 12:25 PM"
YOU SAID THE MAGIC WORD: "FEELING"
"Feelings, nothing more than feelings,
Trying to forget my feelings of love.
Teardrops rolling down on my face,
Trying to forget my feelings of love.
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it.
I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again.
Feelings, wo-o-o feelings,
Wo-o-o, feel you again in my arms.
Feelings, feelings like I've never lost you
And feelings like I've never have you again in my heart.
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it.
I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again."
I AGREE --- THIS SONG SUCKS !!! --- but so do political decisions based on "feelings."
If Eaton is not with Golden as all say here , why is he afraid to endorse Gournades????.?.
ReplyDeleteCapano and Donovan were at the Brooklyn Memorial Day Parade, where was McCabe and Grimm???
ReplyDeleteWhy is the Golden peanut gallery trying so hard to 'neutralize' Craig Eaton, who has not been as visibly active in 2018 as he was in 2017?
ReplyDeleteCraig is gone...Marty took care of that and nothing Craig can do now..
ReplyDeleteCraig is more popular now than when he was Chairman, it took the embarrassment of life under Ghorra to realize how good we had it.
ReplyDeleteIf Craig is so popular he should make an endorsement in the biggest state Senate race in NYC, which is in Brooklyn and his community..
ReplyDeleteIf Craig is gone, which way did he go, and why all the local chatter about him right now?
ReplyDeleteAnd did somebody really say "Marty took care of that"?
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's a good one!
I can see the Gounardes hit piece right now entitled "MARTY TOOK CARE OF THAT"; it could be about a million different things.
Marty will win by 8 points just like he did last time against goonardass
ReplyDeleteMarty actually won by 30 against Gounardes and may win by more this time around.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "HMMMM !!! THAT'S INTERESTING....." EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 9:33 AM"
YOU PURPORT TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.....
Does Marty have any NEW internal polling showing that he'll beat Andy-boy Gounardes by a number anything like that "8 points" that you're talking about?
it looks like Gournarpantsfullofsloppyass win by a landslide. lots of greeks in marine park
ReplyDeleteGournardes will never do as well as he did in 2012.
ReplyDeletehe didnt do that well in 2012
ReplyDeleteRoss Barkan is our best chance of defeating Marty.
ReplyDeleteThere's very little "our" behind Ross Barkan, and that's why he needs to pull his candidacy ASAP to get behind Andrew Gounardes.
ReplyDeleteAs for Andrew G not doing as well as he did in his first race in 2012, never forget that Hugh Carey, Mario Cuomo and Elliot Spitzer had losing races before they went all the way up to becoming Governor of New York State.
Latest poll has Grimm up by 16%
ReplyDeleteThat's very good news for Democrats, and shows a lot of anti-incumbent sentiment.
ReplyDeleteGrimm was on inside city hall and he seems like a hard worker. I'm voting for him.
ReplyDeleteNOTICE: THE "NOTICE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: THE COMMENT MAKER WHOSE COMMENT JUST DISAPPEARED INTO THIN AIR
..... ACTUALLY, IT'S IN MY "SPAM" BIN
I'LL NEED SOME CONFIRMATION ABOUT WHAT YOU POSTED ABOUT LIAM MC CABE BEFORE I WILL LET IT STAND
Should be easy enough to do, if it's true.....
(AH, THE POWER OF BINDING AND LOOSENING --- THIS MUST BE HOW A DOMINATRIX FEELS !!!!!)
President Trump just endorsed Donovan. Game over for Grimm and Liam McCabe..Donovan and his supporters win the primary..
ReplyDeleteTrump endorsed Donovan and compared Grimm to Roy Moore. OUCH!
ReplyDeleteUPDATE: THE "HOT WINDS" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTHE "DEVIL WINDS" WERE BEING STIRRED UP AGAINST MARTY GOLDEN IN SIROCO'S LAST NIGHT BY THE 46th AD SHOREFRONT DEMOCRATIC CLUB & SOME OF ITS HONORED GUESTS --- DISTRICT LEADER MARC TREYGER TOLD THE CROWD THERE HOW IMPORTANT FOR THE DEMOCRATS' WINNING THE MARTY GOLDEN STATE SENATE SEAT WOULD BE BEFORE CO-LEADER DELIA SCHACK INTRODUCED ANDREW GOUNARDES AS THE RIGHT MAN TO DO THE JOB
GOUNARDES WAS WHERE HE NEEDED TO BE FOR MOST OF THE EVENING --- NEXT TO ONE OF THE MOST INDEPENDENT AND TOUGHEST COOKIES IN THE ROOM, THE 49th AD FEMALE STATE COMMITTEE PERSON TORI BURHANS-KELLY --- SOMEBODY WHO HAS ALREADY BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN REMOVING A LEADING MEMBER OF THE ALBANY SWAMP, VITO LOPEZ --- ALONG WITH A STRONG POTSHOT AT SPEAKER SHELDON SILVER FOR GOOD MEASURE
Joe Bova and Tori Burhans-Kelly joined Schack and Treyger flanking Andy Boy Gounardes along with somebody referred to repeatedly as the "NEW COUNCILMAN," Justin Brannan.
In spite of the warm introductions and a strong positive greeting by the crowd, make no mistake, there were more than a few FOMs (Friends of Marty) in the house --- some of them among the leaders that I just mentioned above.
Among the leaders that were there, Andrew seemed closest to the 49th AD's Tori B-K, with whom he spent more time and chatted with far more than any of the others. If you haven't made the connection, a few years back under a slightly different nom de guerre, Victoria Burhans, Tori B-K helped take down Kings County Democratic Chairman and a leading NYS. Assembly Leader Vito Lopez.
Trust me, Marty really needs to look out for Tori, both now and in the future; she looks and sounds like a typical Bay Ridge-type young woman professional, and she's a very strong feminist.
Tori Burhans has been a long time re-tweeter of Gounardes' Tweets.
ReplyDeleteIf Tori is taking the lead on Marty's 'female problems' during the general election campaign Marty will turn out to be badly burned toast.
Tori Burhans looks and sounds like a Park Slope nerd, absolutely no connection to Bay Ridge. You’re reaching again GM.

"AM I SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE YOU OR MY LYIN' EYES....."
Let's leave out the political tryst of T B-K & Andy-boy Gounardes at Dilia Schack's soiree --- it was very "PG" - open - and above board. But last Monday, Memorial Day, Ms. Tori-Victoria was at the Lock Yard with hubby Matt and a couple of friends; and they all seemed to be having some real holiday cheer, along with me. I don't think you can be more "Bay Ridge" than that, because you can't get more Bay Ridge than I am.
GM perhaps you are Mr. Bay Ridge that is plausible but nothing about Tori is of Bay Ridge.
ReplyDeleteNothing about Bay Ridge these days is Bay Ridge.
ReplyDeleteThe reform party vote will probably be the deciding factor on election day.
ReplyDeleteThe reform party will be making a decision on who to endorse after the election
ReplyDeleteTrump endorsed Donovan this week but next week he'll pardon Grimm.

ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 2:54 PM"
"... BUT NOTHING OF TORI IS OF BAY RIDGE..."
OMG, IF MY GRANDAUGHTERS WILLOW AND WAVERLY WERE TO MOVE TO BROOKLYN, WHERE THEIR MOTHER, GRANDMOTHER AND GRANDFATHER WERE BORN, WOULD YOU SAY THE SAME THING ????? WILL AND WAVEY WERE BORN IN KINGSTON AND THEY ARE GROWING UP IN NEW PALTZ.....
That makes them Hudson Valley girls, just like Tori Burhans once was.
--- So what is the big deal if they didn't graduate from Fontbonne Hall, Bishop Kearney or Fort Hamilton ??? Once they moved to Bay Ridge, they all would be Bay Ridge-ites, wouldn't they ?????
That depends GM, if they moved to Bay Ridge because they love the people and the neighborhood yes they would be of Bay Ridge, but if they moved here because they couldn’t afford Park Slope or Willamsburg and dream of turning Bay Ridge into such a place, then they are not of Bay Ridge.
ReplyDeleteThe 1930s Norwegians didn't think any of the newcomers were Bay Ridge. At all.
ReplyDeleteBay Ridge has never been about ethicity it has always been an enclave of middle class normalcy. It will never be a bastion of triggered left wing loons obsessed with banning cars, spreading veganism, who see anti LGBTQ bias in everything.
ReplyDeleteIs that why they were called squareheads?
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "LET'S GET REAL" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO THE COMMENTERS EXPRESSING THEMSELVES ABOUT "OF BAY RIDGE" OR "BEING BAY RIDGE".....
BAY RIDGE HASN'T BEEN THE SAME SINCE THERE STOPPED BEING TEN (10) BARS BETWEEN 72nd AND 76th STREETS ALONG FIFTH AVENUE, --- AH, "THE GAY GORDON," A SCOTS BAR --- ONE WAS EVEN NAMED "THE METS" --- AND "JACKS" ON THIRD AND 75th WAS EVERYBODY'S PLACE TO DROP IN TO SEE WHO WAS THERE
AND MY ASSEMBLYMAN DIDN'T HAVE AN OFFICE PHONE NUMBER, BUT HE HAD HIS LAW OFFICE DOWN THE BLOCK, NEXT DOOR TO FRED HERBST AND HE LIVED A COUPLE OF BLOCKS AWAY IN AN APARTMENT "DOWN" ON RIDGE BOULEVARD
As for anybody trying to make Bay Ridge more like Park Slope --- not in this lifetime --- especially with the R-line very slowly moving toward >>> hourly <<< service (because EVERYTHING on the R moves very, very slowly).
OMG --- THE "THIS IS TOO GOOD" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 8:36 AM"
JUST A WORD OR TWO ABOUT WORDS.....
You do know that, as a matter of good and proper syntax, you cannot have an "ENCLAVE OF NORMALCY"..... On the other hand, I am sure that most of the folks in Bay Ridge do think that they live in one.
OH, AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON >>> "MIDDLE CLASS" <<< THERE AIN'T NO SUCH THING, NEVER-BEEN, NOWHERE, NO-HOW !!!!!
Not sure about ethicity, but Bay Ridge has always, ALWAYS been about ethnicity.
