LOOK OUT --- I'm afraid that she buried the lead on this one --- BUT --- What do I know ??? I'm only a humble independent Republican blogger !!!
HERE'S PART OF THE BACKSTORY ON THE NY1 NEWS ITEM ABOUT MARTY GOLDEN'S BLOCKING ADVERSE COMMENTS ON HIS SOCIAL MEDIA SITES
Here's the good/ bad stuff (based on your POV) about ALL THREE REPUBLICAN INCUMBENTS HERE IN BROOKLYN:
".... A coalition of self-described progressives in Brooklyn are demanding three pols to stop blocking people on social media, following a May federal court ruling that deemed it unconstitutional for President Trump to block his critics on Twitter.... “We call on you to remove these blocks. Likewise, comments made on public officials’ social media platforms should be respected as any other form of protected speech. We’d prefer not to have to fight to get you to respect the Constitution,” members of five political groups, including Bay Ridge for Social Justice and South Brooklyn Progressive Network, wrote in a July 9 letter to a trio of Bay Ridge Republicans — state Sen. Marty Golden, Rep. Dan Donovan, and Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis.... Not only is blocking constituents with whom an official has differing views childish — and unconstitutional — but it also prevents voters from learning their representative’s stance on important issues, said one Bay Ridgite.... “I’ve been blocked by both state Sen. Golden and Assemblywoman Malliotakis for pointing out their hypocrisy,” said Amy Zarkos in a press release. 'It’s beyond frustrating to see my reps claim stances I disagree with and not be able to comment, all the while reading comments posted mostly by constituents who do agree with them. People who aren’t in the know aren’t getting the full story, and that’s dangerous.'...” (See "Pols get antisocial on social media" by Julianne Cuba, 7/12/18, Courier Life's Brooklyn Daily/ Party Line [https://www.brooklyndaily.com/stories/2018/28/pl-party-line-2018-07-13-bk.html]).

1 – 200 of 219 Newer› Newest»Are seriously posting this shit GM? “Lovely” Julianne Cuba is a hack. Amy Zarkos is a psycho troll who has her own Twitter account protected and locked. These are the same twisted people who led a group of socialists outside of Nicole Malliotakis home. Most of the accounts in question are fake accounts and the rest are by disturbed individuals who have threatened some of these elected officials and posted vulgar threatening images. The case law on this is far from settled and while you may disagree with these Electeds, in most cases they have good reasons for blocking these people and it mainly revolves around safety.
Cuba is a great writer, and, shes hot.
Incase ya needed more proof Quaglione is purposely trying to sabotage Marty's re-election campaign, here it is. Everybody knows Quaglione blocks every body who doesn't kiss Marty's gold ring and now he's in hot water for it. word on the street is Marty is not happy with all these bad stories and Quaglione is going to be sent a long vacation

YOU ARE TO BE COMMENDED --- BURIED WITHIN YOUR RATHER ROUTINE QUALITY INVECTIVE IS A KERNEL OF A RATIONAL ARGUMENT AND SOME COHERENT COUNTER-ALLEGATIONS
It remains to be seen whether your claims about "these [being] the same twisted people who led a group of socialists outside of Nicole Malliotakis home" prove out. And whether "[m]ost of the accounts in question are fake accounts and the rest are by disturbed individuals who have threatened some of these elected officials and posted vulgar threatening images...."
You are wrong to suggest that I "disagree with these electeds" on this, that or anything else. In these instances the "electeds" referred to in your comment might very well have good reasons for blocking "these people"; and the main reason for that might also revolve around what you refer to as "safety."
As for Julianne Cuba, you say "hack" and I say "lovely".....
Obviously, between you and me --- "Things have come to a pretty pass.... Our bromance is growing flat.... For you like this and the other.... While I go for this and that..... Goodness knows what the end will be.... Oh, I don't know where I'm at.... It looks as if we two will never be one.... Something must be done.... Either... neither... potato... tomato... pajamas... let's call the whole thing off...."

BUT THANKS FOR THE "TEACHABLE MOMENT" --- YOU SEE PEOPLE LIKE AMY ZARKOS AND I ARE NOT ELECTED OFFICIALS AND OUR ELECTRONIC MEDIA ISN'T "SEMI- OR QUASI- OFFICIAL" --- HENCE, WE ARE COMPLETELY ALLOWED TO LOCK, BLOCK AND/OR DELETE AS WE CHOOSE.....
See yuh in church !!!!!
When the dust settles and the details of who leads in fundraising in the Senate race there will be few surprises.
Not sure what pictures she has on line but if you meet Julianne Cuba in person “hot” or “lovely” are certainly not words that would come to mind unless it’s been a long time since someone had a date or it’s near closing time at the pub.
I don't know about any pictures or anything else, but I do know that 4:19 isn't being nice about this Julianne Cuba at all.
I have a simple question, why are you being so mean talking about her?
Maybe, this is part of Marty Golden and his team's ongoing and very personal war on women.
RESPONSE: THE "BIGGER PICTURE ABOUT MARTY GOLDEN" EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 7:22 AM"
FOR SOME REASON THE GOLDEN CROWD SEEMS TO BE VERY SENSITIVE ABOUT THE NEGATIVE COMMENTARY COMING OUT OF JULIANNE CUBA'S "COURIER LIFE'S - BROOKLYN DAILY" COLUMN "PARTY LINE" --- MAYBE, THAT VERY SAME BUNCH OF GOLDEN "ADVISORS" AND OPERATIVES NEEDS TO LOOK IN A MIRROR AND ASK, "WHAT HAVE I DONE TO CAUSE THIS"
IT'S ALSO OBVIOUS THAT MARTY GOLDEN NEEDS TO DO SOME SOUL SEARCHING TOO --- TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR HIS HAVING A MEANINGFUL "COME TO JESUS" MOMENT
FOR PROOF OF THAT TAKE A LOOK AT TODAY'S DAILY NEWS EDITORIAL --- "A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP SPEED CAMERAS ALIVE" --- DON'T BE FOOLED & DON'T LET ANY GOLDEN FOLKS SPIN THIS --- THE DAILY NEWS EDITORIAL BOARD JUST RIPPED MARTY A NEW ASSHOLE OVER HIS OFTEN-SHIFTING POSITIONS ON SPEED CAMERAS --- OH, AND THEY MENTIONED HIS RECKLESS DRIVING AS WELL.....
I don't need to say nuffin more, right now.....
GM you should stick to covering the speed cameras. The Cuba article is garbage and she knows it. Amy Zarkos is a nut inciting violence. Police have had to get involved with some of these social media fake constituents. Whether you agree with elected or not their homes and families should be off limits.
Lets settle this Cuba thing.
Ms Cuba is in her 20's and on a scale of 1 to 10 she is a 10.
A "10"! WTF!
Definitely closer to 10 in terms of fugly factor.
Perhaps Kassar's personal assistance Alexandra has switches sides and now stalking Golden, that is what she is good for
Ahahaha
RESPONSE: THE "LOTS OF INNUENDO COMING OUT YOUR ENDO" EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... 7:41 AM"
YOU HAVE SUGGESTED SOME VERY INTERESTING, EVEN PROVOCATIVE, STUFF ABOUT "POLICE... INVOLVED" AND "INCITING VIOLENCE" AND ELECTEDS "HOMES AND FAMILIES" --- BUT YOU HAVE REALLY NOT TOLD US ABOUT ANYTHING REAL THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED
IS THAT YOUR IDEA OF GOOD COMMUNICATING ??? IF SO, IT'S OBVIOUS WHY THE GOLDEN GUY IS HAVING SUCH A TOUGH TIME GETTING HIS SIDE OUT THERE.....
So let's keep a running count; so far, you have mentioned two women by name Julianne Cuba and Amy Zarkos; and you have referred to them quite negatively. Then you have mixed in terms like "garbage" and "nut" --- and followed that up with "inciting violence" - "police involved" and "homes and families [of electeds]". That's pretty serious stuff, if it's real.
BUT IF IT IS REAL --- why not some more facts and a lot more clarity?????
AND IF IT IS NOT REAL --- then it is just a blunderbuss attack on two specific women that just might be part of a much bigger war (see commenter "Anonymous said... at 7:22 AM" above).
Nice try GM. If you ask enough people you will get the gist of what happened with these shady people and what they have tried doing at various times.
Kassar, Alexandra and Morgan are the only "shady" people

Just keep going after Cuba and Zarkos --- that's good strateegery.....
How is Alexandra shady????
GM at 8:33. I haven't been following the speed camera story closely so I can't offer much perspective. I am however in a position to tell you that regarding the social media blocking garbage being peddled by Cuba and Zarkos is indeed garbage. Your right to believe or not believe.
I'm told Alexandra got into quite a bit of trouble for reposting the posts from this blog on her instagram. While Alexandra craves any attention, the Morgans do not.
9:30 is 100% wrong and doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
Filings with board of elections show Marty will be able to out spend his opposition by 10 to 1

EXPLANATION: THE "ENOUGH STUPID STUFF ABOUT MCCREIGHT" EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 1:26 PM"
HOW COULD YOU >>> NOT KNOW <<< THAT MR. MCCREIGHT HAD ALREADY DROPPED OUT OF THE RACE FOR THE 46th AD DEMOCRAT LINE AT THE TIME YOU MADE YOUR INANE COMMENT ???
BESIDES, I THINK THAT CHRIS MCCREIGHT, ALL BY HIMSELF, JUST RETIRED THE TROPHY FOR STUPID COMMENTS BY OR ABOUT CHRIS MCCREIGHT WITH THE REASONS THAT HE GAVE FOR DROPPING OUT OF THE 46th AD RACE LAST NIGHT AT A MEETING OF THE BR DEMS
He said he didn't want his assembly race to be a distraction.....
Chris, it takes more than a shaved head and a big smile to win a primary in a Brooklyn assembly district..... Like hand-ball, it takes an opponent, a place to play and at least one good ball, preferably two, but at least one.
Chris dropped out? Was he ever really in?
When it came to the moment of truth, when petitions needed to be filed and money had to be raised, Chris was all talk. Bullshit talk.
12:58, sometimes filings show what people want them to show.
In this case, Marty looks like he has more money on hand than his prospective opponents, but that was 1000% predictable. Given the possible dynamics of this senate campaign, you can't possibly predict what the Democratic Party nominee will have available for the race. It's doubtful that the Golden campaign will be able to outspend any Democratic nominee by 10 to 1. It's even more doubtful that any meaningful poll would put Marty up by 50 or even 40 points.
You can say you 'believe' whatever you want, I'm sure you have your orders about what you can and can't say.
GM your post about McReight was spot on. Train wreck of a candidacy. Q or McCabe should have run they probably would have won. Now we have Saperstein and his sidekick Denaro paving the way from Frontus or Elglarblyis to take Office. Another missed opportunity.
The timing of Mccreight exit smells of no signatures from bay ridge dems
I was at the Board of Elections last night. Mccreight and Guonardes both had more than needed signatures to qualify. Marty's was looking a little light in the loafers he better hope he doesn't get challenged.
8:47 must be devastated and is clearly hysterical and delusional. Golden has more than enough signatures. Mark Treyger opened up a can of whoop ass and Justin and his Twitter club the Bay Ridge Democrats. They are all talk and worthless. Treyger showed them who’s the boss in these here parts.
So why did McCreight fold?
If Chris could raise more than $300 it would have been a lot.
8:47 McCreight didn’t even submit any signatures. This was a big embarrassment for that fat turkey Justin.
McCreight's moves, first getting into and then pulling out of the 46th AD race,
are NOT good signs for the Dems that want to beat Golden. Neither of the other two Democratic primary candidates bring any strength to the Dems ticket in either the Bay Ridge or Dyker Heights parts of the 46th AD.
No wonder why Eaton and Cats are supporting Golden
I don’t know about Eaton but Cats got the last laugh on Golden and Kassar. When he ran for Mayor Kassar ran a smear campaign against him and after he lost told everybody Cats was done in politics and that he couldn’t touch Golden because he needs him. Fast forward and now Kassar is afraid to mention Cats name in any context. It’s true that Cats is supporting Golden but only passively and that could change if they piss him off. So much for Cats being done in politics.
5:50 this was actually a very shrewd move by Justin Brannan. He played Andrew and Chris all along. Of course Justin doesn't want anyone to take the spotlight off of him so it doesn't make sense that he would have another local Democrat elected. Andrew would have won the assembly seat easily if he ran, the deal was there for him to do it and Justin nixed it. If Andrew ran the Republicans were prepared to let Lucretia run and lose again, not that Steve Saperstein is much of an upgrade but at least he will raise some money. Q and Liam thought Andrew would run and backed off. Justin also needed to throw a bone to his hatchet man Chris, so he let him think he was running for Assembly and threw him under the bus five minutes after the Bay Ridge Democrats endorsed him. Now he patched things up with Mark Treyger and Chris blames everyone but the obvious culprit our fat turkey councilman Justin.
Kind of like Golden not wanting any other Rep electeds in Bklyn
its obvious Justin is writing about Justin. "Fat Turkey" is not exactly throwing off the scent. Hows about Fat Fuck? That might fool a few.
Hey Justin get off this blog.
Treyger/Abbate/Colton/Harris=OG I.D.C. but the unholy alliance of their hatred of Bay Ridge.
No one hates Bay Ridge more than Brannan, McCreight, Yedin, and Barkan. That's why they're trying to turn it into Park Slope/Williamsburg.
When Golden loses it will show what a brilliant decision th is was by Brannan and McCreight..
1:19 bullshit like that in its best spin will just buy you some time with some of your freak show supporters. Almost no one believes that. This has nothing to do with Golden it was a ploy to get Andrew out of the assembly race and get Chris in a weak field of Dem candidates and an even weaker Republican opponent. It all went according to plan until Treyger showed Justin who is the truly powerful and connected elected around here. Justin is a joke he just got owned again.
Treyger just told Justin to go home and get his shine box. And unlike what happens in the movie, there is absolutely nothing Justin can do about it.
Let's see what happens on election night..Will prove to be brilliant move by Justin and McCreight when Gournades is the new senator
2:03 guys I know must be hard to squirm like this even for you but even in the highly unlikely event that Andrew wins this has nothing to do with it. You didn’t “choose” to do anything. You were TOLD to sit down and shut up. And except for peddling hysterically funny scenarios about why Chris had to get out of the race there is nothing else you’re allowed to say without getting in trouble from your actual boss Mark Treyger.
Jeff Kraus has been around Marty more the past couple of months (including at the summer stroll yesterday than previous election years..Marty must be nervous!
Also, I wonder if the same poll Team Golden is talking about showing him up 46 points is the same one that showed Quaglione becoming Councilman??
Treyger is laughing his ass off. He totally flimflammed Brannan and got him to drop McCreigt.
Kraus has been with Marty since he first ran for City Council. You think he’s going to let this operation sink because Jerry made a bunch of promises to find jobs for hacks?
I hear next week it will get even worse for Golden, Quaglione, and kassar
4:02 there were no polls showing Q up by anything. It was Justin bragging to the Mayor’s people that he was up by 25 and he sank so fast the Mayor had to send some of his operatives to save him.
5:13 Ross nobody cares about the bullshit stories you keep taking to the press. The skydiving story went over like a lead balloon. Oh I know the Senator sometimes recites the pledge of allegiance...stop the presses! We like that in our district.
cant get rid of justin
Ross is the new boss
For all the naysayers, Golden, Q, and Kassar will continue to be the real bosses of our area
For all his fanboys not in the know Kassar is increasingly ignored by Golden as Quaglione’s supporters remember what he did to their campaign last year and the Donovan people associate with him just enough not to slight Mike Long.

Seriously !!! I mean, "SERIOUSLY ?????"
I knew a lawyer that represented Mr. Kassar in many election cases in Brooklyn Supreme Court, and the justice [judge] on those cases, a longtime Bay Ridge insider and OLA guy, ALWAYS asked this lawyer the same question, "Is that what Mike wants ?" --- on each and every case.....
Bill Garry was known for many things. Being an "OLA GUY" was not one of them.
Anon at 4:56, please, please enlighten us on how "Kassar always took Eaton rhe cleaners"-reall fake news if you ask me.
Kassar never took Eaton to the cleaners because he never had to. Eaton never mattered except in his own mind. Eaton never ran anyone or raised any money. Just looking to tag along.
Well craig the game is over.
It is not Craig. But please, please enlighten me as to how "Kassar took Eaton to the cleaners"?
Eaton was and still is a susccessful attorney, is well respected, won a lot of special elections, raised a lot of money, had great Lincoln Dinners and had a County HQ....
Kassar is just an overweight political whore, who never held a real job in the private sector and bows down to Long and takes it up the ass every day...
What races did Kassar ever win, or what money did he ever raise?
Jerry, time to get Mike Long some wine....
Anon at 1049..
But, to be totally fair, Kassar has a lot of impressive Cons working with him
Fran...ugh..everybody says the same thing about her....you know.
Ross....more ugh
Dave...even more ugh.
Very impressive group, dont you think?
Who else is there? That is the entire crew.
If they didnt get jobs from Long, they would be on the food stamp line.
Funny.....
Everyone on this blog wishes they could be as successful as Jerry.
Nobody said Craig wasnt a successful lawyer or Kassar was a beauty.
The fact is Craig never did anything of substance that a party official does. No candidates. no money raised, no county committee. If the job of the GOP chair is to get real estate closings well Craig is then a statesman.
The conservatives run Donovans bklyn office , not any of Eatons folks despot how much Eaton says he is close to Donovan. .seems Kassar alot closer ..
Cats is supporting Golden, despite how close Eaton says he is with Cats..everyone and their mother knows how much Eaton can't stand Golden
John Cats himself says Marty is mentoring his daughter despite how close Eaton says he is with cats..
I see a clear pattern.....
Dear Kassar Sycophants: You keep mentioning Eaton and Cats which proves how low Kassar has sunk. “Mentoring Andrea” this is the same guy who in 2013 vowed that Eaton and Cats were done in politics for having had the audacity to oppose the KCCP meal ticket Joe Lhota, now Kassar has to tell anybody who’ll listen that Cats is backing Golden and Golden has to constantly worry that the stupid shit Kassar did to Cats will come back to haunt them. Donovan humors Kassar because of Mike Long, even Liam doesn’t even care what he thinks any more. His only supporters are two psycho rich kids the Upper East Side who aren’t welcome in Manhattan and Ted Ghorra who obeys to Kassar’s command either because he doesn’t care anymore or actually thinks Jerry will help him stay in power. Meanwhile Eaton hangs out with nationally prominent influencers as Kassar begs Marty to let him hire people for petitioning.
114pm or Craig has to stop living in the past.whatever happened did or did not happen in 2013 doesn't matter ..I don't think Kassar is worrying cats will come back to haunt them because he is the indisputable , bottom line, Cats IS SUPPORTING Golden, Cats said publicly Marty is mentoring Andrea...we know Cats know Kassar is Goldens chief of staff so if there was any ill will this would not be happening. The Eaton sycophants just can't stand that they can't argue with the cold hard fact that Cats is with Marty and not a damn thing Craig can say or do but sit quiet on the sidelines...poor fella
By the way it makes little sense in 114 pm comment that Donovan only humors Kassar by giving his people jobs..what makes more sense is Donovan humors Craig by showing up to his house for an hour to get some money..
1:59 No more jobs for Kassar. The last two people hired in Donovan office Kassar has had no input whatsoever, how insulting for such a “powerful” chair. Only going to get worse after November. They hired a guy all the way from Staten Island to work in Brooklyn, that should sum it up nicely. Meanwhile the guy Jerry hired and convinced Dan to support for City Council betrayed him and wrote op eds against him. You also think they’ll forget that the Steepelcase kids who ran the ground game for Grimm get most of their work from Jerry now? Craig was mentioned and thanked publicly at the victory celebration where Jerry was by himself since most of his “loyal” lieutenants were with Grimm.
Last I checked Fran was still in charge of the Brooklyn office..game, set, match craig!!
Only one boss of the GOP. Senator Golden.
1:54 I hope they are paying you to write such silly comments at least hopefully you were one of the people that they put on the payroll to petition for Marty. If Cats was forcefully supporting Golden then he would have the Reform Party line no questions. As a matter of fact, there was an agreement where Golden would have gotten the Reform party line had Jerry not gotten involved. Bob Capano works for John Cats and is looking to move up in the company, no way he would defy Cats and risk his financial future. But the fact remains that Jerry did a lot of shit against Cats and there is bad blood. Cats is a practical businessman he won't get involved in a race Marty is likely to win but he could have made it easier for him and didn't.
Did Eaton, a former political party chairman and self proclaimed mover and shaker in NYC politics make an endorsement yet in his own very hotly contested state Senate race?? If not, why not??
To the poster at 2:47. What's the point of Fran being "in charge" if the Conservatives can't get any of their people hired? Liam saw the writing on the wall and left. Now Jerry's only remaining loyal operatives need his help to get petitioning jobs in Brooklyn and Staten Island. Marty is getting ready to staff up for the campaign and is only asking Jerry advice on who to hire so that he can make sure they don't get hired.
347 is making a ridiculous argument..I think everyone knows Fran is jerry's r ighr hand person and she is IN CHARGE...if Donovan had any doubts about Kassar she would not be there...nice try though...if Craig has all this influence let's see if f ran is fired tomorrow????
Nobody cares about Fran and we all know she got her way when Liam tried to get rehired which Kassar tried making happen and was refused by Team Donovan. Craig hasn’t been Chair for years but was mentioned publicly and prominently at Danny’s victory celebration. That never would have happened if Jerry was as powerful as he makes himself out to be.
If f ran is in charge at Donovans office it means Kassar is also..
Quite ironic - Take a look at Susan Eaton's FB page. While many of you Kassar "sycophants" are typing away on your basement computers on a sunny sat and sunday baselessly attacking Eaton, Cats and others, probably in your underwear with a fan nearby (since your state or city jobs probably dont let you afford an AC) Eaton was throwing a lavish party at his bayfront home on LBI for his son who is starting Medical School in 2 weeks. I believe this is their youngest son and I know for a fact that their other children are also professionals, a lawyer and a special education teacher. Not too shabby I would say.
Very nice photos. Eaton looks like he really cares about what you all think about him as he parties with his beautiful wife and extremely bright and accomplished children.
Type away.
DUH
5:08 Be careful revealing the Eatons location. How long before Jerry sends Alexandra and Robert out there with surveillance equipment?
Too late...Kassar knows where the house is. He used to come to the Eaton GOP BBQ on LBI every year and eat like he was eating his last meal, until Eaton woke up and cut him off the invite list.
Yeah its really tough to catch someone during the rush hour on the subway. I assume it was the evening rush.
What people don't realize is that these pyschos from the Upper East Side turn on people at the drop of a hat. They have dirt on almost everyone, maybe even Jerry who knows. If they gave Jerry that picture just to get jobs petitioning imagine what else they are willing to do.
As for all the calls for Eaton to endorse a candidate in the sen race, these posts must be from Dems trying to entice him to endorse Gunardes.
Eaton is very smart. He would never endorse Golden, but endorsing a Dem would be foolish. He was a GOP County Chair and NYS GOP Vice Chair for many years.
Endorsing a Dem when the GOP are in fear of losing their fake majority would be very foolish, and he is way too smart for that
Political activity is a good thing. But the only professionals involved like Golden Kassar and Quaglione have always won. Why change now.
Craig Eaton and Bob Capano are playing this race against Marty Golden exactly right..some razzle dazzles, some anonymity (taking a page from Alexandra and rob), some public comments, some work behind the scenes
To the Kassar, Golden folks or whoever else throwing "facts" at Eaton, what about these facts and claiming Cats with Golden: for months the Golden crew said on this blog that Capano and the Reform Party would be going with Golden, that Capano was afraid of Cats, etc., etc ..well we'll well this did not happen which makes one of the following true:
1) Capano was not afraid of Cats
2) Cats was aware of what Capano was doing and No problem
One of the above HAS to be true.

RESPONSE: THE "VERY UNLIKELY AS REPORTED BY THE VERY EXCITABLE" EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 12:48 PM"
THE DEMOCRATS KEEP FIRING BLANKS AT PRESIDENT TRUMP THINKING THAT THEY ARE "SILVER BULLETS" --- THIS "PRESIDENTIAL TREASON" TROPE IS GETTING SO VERY OLD
I CHECKED ALL OF WHAT I CONSIDERED RELIABLE NEWS SOURCES --- AND NOT ONE OF THOSE OUTLETS SEEMS TO HAVE CAUGHT ON TO ANY OPEN AND NOTORIOUS ACT OF TREASON BY PRESIDENT TRUMP, TODAY OR ANY DAY
Trump was masterful with his joint appearance with Putin. Trump expressed himself clearly, he gave his own version of what Putin had "told [him]" --- and he publically dismissed the yammerings of his opponents in the deep state as the unreliable nonsense that all real Americans now know it all to be.
The uncontrolled abuse of law and language by some rabid Democrats and a few others is actually playing into President Trump's hand, because he is very much on solid ground and well supported by history in his often expressed distrust of "official" conclusions by the U.S. "intelligence community", and whose list of morally compromised leaders is legion --- especially when you focus on acknowledged Democrat operators and Bushy Republicans deeply seeded throughout our collective national security apparatus.
Any verbal attacks on POTUS while he is actively engaged in high level diplomacy overseas is much more proof of "treason" than anything equanimous or even conciliatory that Trump might say about any world leader, even Putin.
Clinton took hundreds of millions of dollars from the Russians
It is much more likely that you can close the circle of criminal conspiracy between the Russians and the Clintons with proof of laundered Russian money finding its way into the pockets of of Bill, Hillary and Chelsea than you are likely to find with the Russians and any of the Trumps.
In fact, the Manafort indictment, which is supposedly one of Mueller's "Trump administration" scalps, involves activities more closely involving Clinton hands like the Podestas than any of the Trump folks.
Lots of well established Republicans are very twisted in knots and have said so about Trump's joint press conference with Putin.
Trump has been in the pocket of the Russian mob since the late 1980s. Putin's rise to power gave him incredible leverage over Trump, which dwarfs any relationship they had with the Clintons. The pee tape may be a drop in the ocean compared to what they have on Trump.
In our new 21st Century American Revolution, we just need to see the players clearly. Donald Trump is our heroic national leader, George Washington, Putin is our very necessary foreign helper, the King of France, and all the deep state naysayers to Trump are nothing but loathsome Tories. Remember this, our English 'allies" are always English, we don't call them perfidious Albion for nothing.
Now I need a dictionary to read these comments. Its a lot easier to blame it on fat bob.
Easier to blame on fat Kassar
8:29 sounds better in the original Russian.
Oopsy-daisy! Trump says that he misspoke at the press conference in Helsinki.
Frontus wins the primary. Saperstein wins the election.
Steve Saperstein will spend a lot of money bragging how he got close to 40% against the eventual Democratic winner in the general. Shame Q or Liam didn’t run. Ray and Steve are still on hold for the Donovan campaign.
Nicole did not carry many areas for Mayor but she carried the 46th.
Trump did very well in Saperstein’s City Council district but Saperstein still managed to get trounced by one of the strangest dullest Democrats in the City. Ethan and Mathylde are baking cakes pies and sending flowers to thank Teddy Ghorra for talking Q out of running for Assembly.
McCreight story about dropping out to help Max rose aint adding up. And how does that help Rose?
Justin get off this blog. You played McCreight and Gounardes why you want to keep highlighting it is just weird.
Councilman Brannan has developed a very bad reputation in a very short period of time. His enemies have used it over and over already, his friends whisper about it behind his back and now resent it, and people in high places have already taken note for the future. His new nickname should be THE BIG ROUND MAN, because he is so easy to roll. Treyger has done it again with McCreight.
If Brannan thinks he'll be City Council Speaker some day, he needs to fuggetaboutit or grow a pair.
If Brannan thinks he’s getting re-elected to City Council let alone becoming Speaker he should wake up and find another plan.
Justin is a boss tweed and chester arthur all rolled into one.
Maybe every democrat running will drop out to help Max Rose.
Nice try Quaglione, your political career is over..you ain't running for nothing in 2021
Quaglione almost beat fat turkey Brannan during a con con year with Dems coming out in droves. Despite all the bragging by local Bay Ridge Dems they've had their asses handed to them by the beginning of the summer. What happened to McCreight was a brutal beatdown of Brannan and humiliating for McCreight. Not one of their endorsed candidates is winning anything. They're already compiling a list of excuses to tweet out after election day while they suck down junk food in Brannan's office and pretend to help consituents.
We will see what happens election night
The only thing happening on election night is Justin pats McCreight on the back and says well beat Saperstein in 2020.
Only thing that happens on Election night is fat turkey Justin laughing whole hog as McCreight will be more reliant on him than ever. Treyger has a new puppet Ethan in Assembly, Gounardes figures out how fat turkey Justin played him as well, and Ray and Steve still waiting for Donovan to return their calls.
Forget election night. Marty Golden, Frank Seddio, Mark Treyger and Dilia Schack are laughing at Rolly-Polly Brannan right now. Let him try to spin all he wants, you can't spin while you're still rolling.
RESPONSE: THE "SEMI-OFFICIAL BUT NOT 'PARTY LINE' " EDITION
TO: ALL THE BRANNAN, MCCREIGHT & TREYGER COMMENTERS ABOVE
JULIANNE MCSHANE HAS DONE A CHAPTER 'N' VERSE ARTICLE ABOUT THE MCCREIGHT DROP-OUT "DEAL" AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S ATTEMPT TO "UNIFY" AGAINST GOLDEN AND DONOVAN
McShane's article comes at this from a lot of different angles. The unification "deal" scenario also makes a lot of sense; and every Democrat involved comes off sounding pretty good (See "United front: Southern Brooklyn Dems join forces to defeat Golden" by Julianne McShane, 7/18/18, Courier Life's Brooklyn Daily/ Politics/ Bay Ridge [https://www.brooklyndaily.com/stories/2018/29/br-mccreight-assembly-race-2018-07-20-bk.html]).
If it's all true, it's definitely bad for Marty.....
BUT I'M NOT BUYIN' INTO THE MCSHANE VERSION --- IT'S TO MUCH SPIN FROM TREYGER AND BRANNAN. THE ONLY THING THAT SOUNDS REAL TO ME IS THAT MCCREIGHT WAS PISSED-OFF.....
I read the mcshane column and my first impression was did Justin gain another 100 pounds? Then a comment was posted wanting to know if mcreight was promised treygers seat. This stuff cracks me up. Big time politicos with big deals !!!
mcreight was promised the third sandwhich justin decided not to have for lunch today. And he took it.
get real 11:03
Justin aint giving up that 3rd sandwhich
Everybody needs to get in touch with reality. There was no "deal" worthy of the name. Treyger rolled Brannan (and McCreight) again for about the one millionth time. Brannan got nothing, McCreight got nothing, Bay Ridge Dems got nothing, Gounardes got nothing and Max Rose got nothing; Treyger and his man Ethan Lustig-Elgrably got everything.
Not true 11 53
McCreight got a big hand shake (job)
Brannan & Co can command their puppet McShane to write any garbage they come up and she will dutifully comply. Treyger flexed on Brannan and Brannan folded like one of the cheap suits he hardly fits in to. Nobody likes McCreight he's only useful to Brannan, now Brannan has to bear the humiliation of having to force his right hand man out of the race so that Treyger don't open up a can of whoop ass on all of them.
Word is Saps campaign manager is Lucretia! You can't make this stuff up.
Has anyone seen Liam mccabe? I am concerned
125- Sap managed to unite all of Brooklyn. Whatever delusions you have, their campaign has $, 4 ballot lines and two dummies fighting on the democratic side. Hateall you want but he is the front runner in a district where Malliotakis carried.
I thought Ray Denaro was his campaign manager? He switched already not good.
Fake news- Saperstein campaign manager is Kelly Anne Conway.
Sap campaign manager is the interns
1:25 more fake news. Sap has a team of people who are managing his campaign. He is the one candidate in Brooklyn who has managed to get people from all sides to unite behind him including Marty Golden, Kassar, Bob Capano, and Lucretia.
5:28 and 7:05 need a reality check. Saps ran City Council race in a District Trump won easily against a weak incumbent who is so dumb he makes Mathylde and Ethan seem like NASA scientists. Steve got clobbered.Speaking of which Ethan already raised twice as much as Saps. After insulting Golden by backing Grimm, Golden could care less about his race. Donovan won’t lift a finger to help him either. So he’s left with the brain trust of Ray, Lucretia, and the interns.
5:43 from what I heard denaro ran out of that mess like a bat out of hell once he heard who steve wanted to have run the campaign
7:49 is that the same Ray Denaro constantly posting on here that he doesn’t blog anonymously? Because if he left Steve’s campaign not exacy a loss for Steve.
Steve fired denaro
Saps disclosures show hes got $3,826
Steve Saperstein looks at politics from the wrong end of the telescope, and he always has. His assembly campaign is a bigger shambles than his City Council campaign was. Don't believe that the Brooklyn GOP is united behind Saperstein, they only reluctantly settled upon him in the first place. They won't be uniting behind him anytime soon either, because he's bobbing around like a cork in the ocean. More people are leaving his sinking ship than are coming aboard
7:29 fake news. Sap and Donovan are closer than ever. They have a joint event next month to raise big money. You must be a professional blogger or a former BROOKLYN GOP somebody who can’t stand unification because it’s something you couldn’t pull off.
Gerry Obrien was the only pro Sap EVER had working for him..
Hopefully Saperstein can raise more than the current $3,000 he has
2:33 Fake news- Saperstein raised $50,000.
2:03 must be Steve. Now that is rich. Donovan doesn’t even know who Steve is. But his team knows Steve and that he supported and helped Grimm. Only way Steve thinks he gets help from Donovan is from false assurances on the Brooklyn end because most of the Conservatives also backed. So Jerry tells Steve he’ll take care of it, then Donovan people realize this guy was backing Grimm and Donovan doesn’t even show up.
4:32 Assemblyman Saperstein receives a print out of all relevant news to his office every morning aboard Air Force Sap, among BROOKLYN daily and KIngs county politics stories, he is shown the comments on this blog. After he reads the comments every morning, he straps onto a triple tandem parachute to his cronies Ray Denaro, James Mcclelland and Marty Golden where he screams FAKE NEWS laughing.
7:49 & 8:20
I am still very much with the Saperstein campaign. No one quit and no one was fired. Contrary to what most of you type on here from your mom's basements. 5:12 AM...that one is 100% true though. We are on the plane right now and our future Assemblyman brought some great bagels this morning, hopefully tomorrow is danish day again. That was a lot of fun. =)
-Ray Denaro (I don't blog anonymously) - BTW I love that you all hate that..tata for now.
Ray during the time you were posting on this blog you missed Ron Carrera’s call. Oh wait no that was one of the interns. And please don’t act like you’re rich, everybody knows you’re still living off a weekly allowance.
Why is Steve not listening to me but only the interns
- Ray Denaro (I don't blog anonymously)
RESPONSE: THE "WHERE DID IT ALL GO" EDITION
TO ALL THOSE WHO DON'T SEE THAT THAT THE WHEELS HAVE COME OFF SAPERSTEIN'S "LITTLE ENGINE THAT COULD" CAMPAIGN
--- IT REALLY DOES TAKE MORE THAN "I THINK I CAN - I THINK I CAN - I THINK I CAN....."
Riddle me this Batman --- If Stevie S. did raise $50,000, where did it go ?
More important, what does Stevie S. have to show for it ???
And most important of all, how many more $50,000s do you think you will need for a competitive campaign going forward, and how do you plan to get those new $50,000s that you'll need ?????
Or are things exactly how they look ? Is the Saperstein campaign running on air and "I think I can" alone ????? ????? ?????
Sap raised $36,107.
He spent $4,800, including two $1,000 consulting payments to Lucretia.
This is weaponized stupidity.
RESPONSE: THE "LET'S THROW OUT THE NONSENSE NUMBERS AND WHAT'S LEFT" EDITION
IN RE SAPERSTEIN: OK, SO THERE'S NO $50,000, NO SURPRISE THERE..... AND HE SAYS HE HAS MORE THAN $3,826 AVAILABLE (HE SUGGESTS MAYBE ABOUT 10X THAT AMOUNT) --- NONE OF THAT ANSWERS MY MORE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ABOVE
I modify my concluding jibe from above as follows:
"Or are things exactly how they seem ? Is the Saperstein campaign close to running on air, and pennies and "I think I can" ????? ????? ?????"
Gail, you missed the big story here for two days now.
Lucretia is in the game in the 46th AD; and
Saperstein being willing to pay Lucretia Regina-Potter for her services is a royal bitch-slapping to Jerry Kassar.
I know that you get this, because you and I talked about all of it yesterday on the landline.
As of July 15, he had $32,000 remaining to spend.
Maybe Sap really has learned..getting rid of Kassar and Obrien
2:32 & 8:49 you’re delusional. Gerry Obrien was the worst thing that happened to Steve S and Liam McCabe. Kassar is still very much supporting Steve S as is Donovan.
Stevie raised $50,037. Check the filings. Gale why so negative on Stevie? Nicole Malliotakis won the district by 3,000 votes.
God bless you Stevie..
God bless you Ray Denaro..
God bless you Jerry O’Brien..
Has anyone heard from Liam ?
God bless you Liam Mccabe..
God bless us all. Everyone.
Stale, pale & male.
Dr Frontus walks in.
GM at 8:36. GM you are right this campaign has already run out of gas. Ethan has raised twice as much as Steve and most of Steve's big donors are relatives which means the fundraising spigot pretty much ended shortly after it started. Steve was banking on a big Grimm win to help him with his campaign, now if he wants Kassar involved he's going to have to hire his favored consultants and even that won't get Donovan involved. Golden already made his deal with Treyger. Lucretia is being mentioned again but that is the extent of what the Saperstein campaign has managed to accomplish so far.
Sap gets 39% as he usually does.
Looks like comment at 9:27 is having some fun with Steve. Yes Malliotakis carried 46th comfortably, yes Trump won City Council District by 70% of the vote. Yes Steve Saperstein didn't break 40% in the district Trump won by 70 and lost to Chaim Deutsch by more than 4,000 votes. He will lose this race by more.
I hear Quaglione is kicking himself for not running in 46th
