Flash Update: One of Golden's crowd crows about having set up a rather complex "Fake News" operation

A fresh report from one of my deep mole BSIs inside Golden's  tent tells us that  >>>  organized disinformation will be a major part of the Golden operation going forward in 2018


I have CONFIRMED that Marty Golden and/or many on his staff think that I am partially responsible for some or all of the anti-Marty sentiment in Bay Ridge. 

Even though Golden and his sycophants are clearly worried about Democrat Andrew Gounardes,  some appear to be easily distracted by flashy things and always try to strike (back) quickly.   Like this:  anytime someone attacks Marty on this blog, whether it's me in one of my featured posts or an anonymous commenter, some among Golden's staff and campaign crowd have been tasked  to make routine counter-attacks by going after some designated Democrats or independents. 

Lately more than anyone else, that has been Justin Brannan and Bob Capano,  no doubt because of their open support of the Democrat Andrew Gounardes;  who is also running on the Reform Party line.  But occasionally it  has been directed at me, as well.  These counter-attacks have already appeared both here on this blog and on other social media sites and we should expect more of the same as we get closer to election day.


A RUSSIAN-STYLE "FAKE NEWS" GRASSROOTS OPERATION

Now, that Marty is in campaign mode, his handlers have put together a cadre of his supporters posting fake stuff on various different forums online saying things like "this neighborhood is going to hell", etc.   ---   not realizing that many, many people blame State Senator Golden and his contributors in the real estate business for that.  

Just yesterday, on local Bay Ridge parents' Facebook pages, a "woman" posted a fake photo of hypodermic syringes around "the neighborhood...".   That particular picture  actually thad been taken in London several years ago,  however, the woman said it was taken at the JJ Carty Park on Fort Hamilton Parkway.   After several people called her out for it, so she deleted the posted phony photograph in one quick hurry.  There are many more fake accounts of neighborhood disarray out there on social media  ---   many of which are controlled by and came from various friends of State Senator Martin J. Golden.   

I can't say that all of  this is a 100%  coordinated effort to undermine all organized opposition to Marty Golden.  However,  my source told me that some of Marty Golden's campaign consultants even promised him that they can make lots of people come out vote for Republicans in November by making them think local crime is on the rise, and that many other unsavory prospects await if the Democrats take over control of the New York State Senate.

  1. Imagine a government-funded operation like this, with the successor to the KBG behind it.

    Oh wait ... that's what Putin put in play during the last presidential race.

    We'll never know how many votes it changed.

  2. Galewyn if there was ever any doubt that you’ve given access to Justin Brannan to make some of your posts, This latest ridiculous entry removes all doubt. Perhaps you should have checked with Justin when he got embarrassed on Facebook after encouraginf some of his idiot supporters to claim that Russians were organizing attacks against him. Get new sources because it does seem to be 95% drivel fed to you by Justin and Bob.

  3. Here's what I know: Marty is worried.

  4. This is a page ripped straight out of Gerry Kassar's dog-eared copy of Barry Goldwater's divide and conquer playbook. People living in fear will run to vote for the despot. The despot in this case is none other than Martin Golden. I applaud you, Galewyn, for shining a light on this desperate tactic. Saperstein would be smart to denounce these tactics and distance himself from all of these Putinesque maneuvers.

  5. RESPONSE: THE "CAUGHT OFF BASE --- AGAIN" EDITION

    TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 6:50 AM"

    >>> GUILT = PARANOIA <<<

    I COMMENTED VERY RECENTLY THAT I HADN'T SPOKEN TO JUSTIN BRANNAN IN QUITE SOME TIME --- THAT FACT HASN'T CHANGED --- HOWEVER, I DON'T DENY THAT THE POST ABOVE MIGHT REFLECT >>> A LITTLE SPIN <<< FROM SOMEBODY CLOSE TO BRANNAN.....

    ONE OF MY TOP BSIs DID SPEAK TO BOB CAPANO QUITE RECENTLY --- MORE ABOUT THAT WHEN I FINISH A FULL-SIZED FEATURE ALL ABOUT IT --- PROBABLY MONDAY OR TUESDAY --- BECAUSE IT IS ABOUT A PROCESS THAT IS ONGOING


    Obviously Marty Golden, his staff, his campaign and his closest supporters are apparently NOT involved in a "RUSSIAN 'FAKE NEWS' OPERATION" --- And Marty G. is not Putin, but at times he can be very Putin-like.

    I have blogged about this stuff for quite a while --- it's no longer an undercover operation. So when you say "... that [I]’ve given access to Justin Brannan to make some of your posts..." you are way off the mark.

    Please, keep those cards, letters and well-wishes coming.....

  6. If Saerstein doesn’t win this race it would only be because he hasn’t hired a professional campaign team but also because he’s a rube who thinks he’s cleverly playing off different factions against each other.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Obriens and Capano are wise stay ing far away from Saperstein...in fact I hear they have both met with Frontus to share their well known knowledge about Saperstein and his band of interns and loose cannons that they know oh so well..

    ReplyDelete
  8. Sap can win as long as he stays far away from McCabe and his loose-lipped fiancee

    ReplyDelete
  9. Frontus is the giant killer. She beat the bosses, beat their staffer who outspent her 10-1, and and beat them across the district, not just Coney. Sap is not a threat to her.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Sap is going to lose bigger than he lost his Council race..th at will be very embarrassing...he surrounded himself with a post group this year

    ReplyDelete
  11. If we can’t win the 46th this year it is a disgraceful embarrassment to all involved.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Golden's camp is so obsessed with Justin Brannan beating Quaglione they don't know how to strategize anymore. Brannan isn't up for re-election, Golden is, and Golden should be campaigning against Gounardes, not Brannan and the mayor. Nobody likes DeBlahsio, but that won't translate to votes for Marty.

    All he's doing is making our neighborhood look bad and himself with it. I want Marty to win but he's running an embarrassing campaign. I was going to donate to him, but not if it's going to pay for stupid posts in Bay Ridge Parents that the liberal loonies there uncover in about two seconds anyway, and which don't do real campaigning.

    I haven't gotten a single mailer from Marty yet, but I've been accosted by people with Gounardes literature at the train a bunch of times.

  13. FLASH UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "UNOFFICIAL & UNAUTHORIZED" EDITION

    LONG AWAITED "SEPTEMBER" GET TOGETHER OF CRAIG EATON, BOB CAPANO AND JIM MCCALL FINALLY HAPPENED AT THE THE BRIDGEVIEW A LITTLE WHILE AGO ---

    CRAIG APPEARED AND SOUNDED QUITE RESTED AFTER HIS FUN IN THE SUN SUMMER; MORE IMPORTANT HE WAS VERY UN-MUZZLED; AND HE SCOFFED AT ANY NOTION THAT ANYBODY TRULY "IN THE KNOW" WOULD EVEN SUGGEST SUCH A THING

    BOB CAPANO WAS TOUTING HIS BROOKLYN & STATE REFORM PARTY'S TICKETS AS THE RIGHT WAY TO GO --- THERE WAS TALK OF MAILINGS TO REFORM PARTY MEMBERS AND UNDECLARED INDEPENDENT VOTERS --- AND POSSIBLY EVEN CERTAIN REPUBLICANS


    With my Executive BSI, Jim McCall, in attendance with one of my regular and reliable stringer BSIs, Bob Capano, this meeting will be getting the full treatment of a full-blown post with an important announcement; look for it next Monday or Tuesday [my schedule will not allow me to get it out any sooner, and there are one or two housekeeping and bookkeeping points that Bob and Craig wanted to check out before making a formal announcement].

    This isn't a spoiler in any way, but Craig Eaton spoke both on and off the record; and he was more than happy to let us here at the "Brooklyn... Fountainhead" use his name for all "on the record" material.

    The purpose of the meeting was to set up a group, club or association whose purpose would be to bring together Republicans, Democrats, Conservative Party, WFP and others for frank and open discussions of the issues in an atmosphere of sociability.

    This trio of Brooklyn Republican "long-timers" (yes, Bob Capano is certainly one of those) intend to involve as many of the local "electeds," regardless of party who show any positive interest. Therefore, the core group hopes that by its nature the new organization will be seen as non-partisan and non-alined in what it is trying to do, which is to be an honest broker of ideas of political, social and economic significance with particular emphasis on LOCAL ISSUES.

    Bob Capano likened the effort to what was done by the "Brooklyn 'Philosophers' Club," a while back. However, there has been a change of the political climate of late; and, in light of the hyper political divisiveness the trio wanted a forum where community minded men and women from all sides of the spectrum could come together in a social atmosphere to discuss neighborhood issues and how to improve things in various aspects of daily life. Of course, in the current environment efforts at getting any "non-partisan" political discussion groups together for open and friendly discussions might be a heavy lift.

    Also, wHereas the "Philosophers Club" met socially at local restaurants and pubs, the proposed group would only start out that way (but carry that tradition forward as only PART of a bigger effort). The intent is that this group, association or club would host a variety of speakers and occasionally even conduct forums; and during the political season, present and moderate candidates' debates.

    More info on this stuff next week, including a NAME of the new "club" and a calendar of future gatherings and events.

  14. One of Kassar's Coney Isle cronies posted a pic of a heroin needle on Facebook yesterday, saying she had found it laying in the grass near the playground at Shore Road park and that the neighborhood was going to hell in a handbrake. Turns out the needle pic was a stock photo from a foreign newspaper. When the poster got called out for it, she deleted her post and her account immediately. Sloppy tricks like this aren't going to help Saperstein and they're not going to beat The Greek either.

  15. Saperstein is his own worst enemy. Seriously.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Sap lost before it began when he picked his campaign team

    ReplyDelete
  17. There was a whole week when neither Frontus or Treygers guy couldn't campaign because they didn't know who won..Saperstein had the race all to himself..he should have been all over the place publicly. Instead not a peep from his campaign....sad..that's what happens when interns and a drunk run the campaign

    ReplyDelete
  18. The 46th race outcome has very little to do with Sap. It's just an unwinnable district for any Republican at the local level.

  20. All Golden sycophants need to stop the ridiculous attacks on Craig and Bob. They have not only long time political experience but also their own civic record, Craig as chairman of CB 10 and memberships in so many other groups, and Bob as President of the 68 Youth Council and other great community organzations. Neither needs politics to survive as the ones attacking them.

  22. Be on the alert for those who are trying to fear-monger in the neighborhood.

    Today one person (hired by Marty Golden) posted the picture below and they claimed the picture was taken in a children’s park in Bay Ridge. IT WASN’T….the picture wasn’t even taken in the United States.

    ReplyDelete
  24. At one point at the meeting, even one of Golden's goons had to shut Liam down and got a big thundering round of applause when he did. Liam's shtick is stale and only hurting Schaperschtein.

  38. State Sen. Jeff Klein spent more than $3 million in his stunning loss to a 32-year-old first-time candidate. This year it's not about money or polls. It's the Blue Wave.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Blue wave 10'02 says.

    Little known fact is Trump carried the senate district. Yes Bay Ridge & Marine Park voted for Trump over Hillary. Marine Park will vote for a Marine like Senator Golden. Gournardes went to day camp. Hey maybe Andy will get the day camp vote.

  54. So 625, you attack Ghorra when he is not visible and now attack him when he is? Make up your mind.

    What is great is that he is working very closely with Cats and his political team on several fronts , while Craig still isn't allowed to publicly speak per Cats.

    ReplyDelete
  67. King Klein spent well over $3 million in his stunning loss to Biaggi's 32-year-old grand-daughter in Riverdale. This year it's not about the bucks or the phone polls. It's about the Blue Wave, baby. Golden is in trouble --- even REBNY knows it. It's no wonder Quaglione went back to night school. Q may turn out to be the smartest man in the room and the only man with an post-Marty plan!

  104. HOT - HOT - HOT: THE "DO WE HAVE A DEAL FOR YOU....." EDITION

    MAYBE, THIS IS REALLY BIG.....

    From a source deep in the Frank Seddio factory --- Mark Treyger is working behind the scenes for Steve Saperstein (High Dem insiders seem OK with it; it seems that Treyger can't even effectively communicate with Mathylde Frontus, since the Dem primary in the 46th AD, his Democrat nominee against the Big Sapper).

    I can't see that happening unless there's also a Treyger deal in place for the Golden-Gounardes race (hint -- something that's good for Marty & not so good for Andrew Gounardes).

    ReplyDelete
  105. Good job GM. Maybe you are taking advice and expanding your sources. I don't know anything about Golden deal although it would make sense. I do know that Liam clumsily tried to reach out to Treyger through intermediaries and was turned down several times. Treyger not interested in helping a campaign that makes Mathylde look like she has a first rate operation.

    Their code names for themselves are "Hornet" - "Wasp" - & - "Busy Bee"..... So >>> YOU TELL ME !!! HOW DOES THAT SOUND LIKE IT MIGHT BE GOOD NEWS FOR MARTY GOLDEN AND COMPANY ???

    BTW, do you think that Craig, Bob and Jim should RSVP that they plan to attend Marty Golden's "Seniors' Breakfast" at the Bridgeview to hear Marty tell everybody how his campaign is going so far ??? That certainly should qualify as something that would conform to one of their stated goals: ".... We welcome anyone to join us because there is much more that unites us as Brooklynites than divides us. Our goal is to bring together residents to exchange ideas on improving our communities with respect in a social atmosphere...." Nobody in Marty's camp could say "NAY !!!" to that --- or might they ???

Can someone tell Ted Ghorra that his candidate for the 46th Assembly District did not show up for a debate in Bay Ridge, giving his opponent free reign and an opportunity to impress voters something which she did quite well. Sending his Strategist Liam to walk around the forum was not a good alternative strategy.

  122. Liam had a flask with him I heard?

  123. 2:14 is a nasty ridiculous comment

  124. Sap's wife gave birth to a daughter yesterday. No one in their right mind expects him to be anywhere else but her side today.

    But some of the people on this site don't fit that category.

  125. Will Sap change Liam's diapers too ?

  126. Let’s cut the crap. Understandable fundraiser was rescheduled but Steve couldn’t show up for a half an hour to a forum?

    12 people show up to these bullshit forums. Donovan didn’t even bother showing up . What a joke. Liam is setting himself up for 2021 perfectly. Liam is back! Quaglione senior center mentality is a losing mentality.

  130. Q will destroy Liam even worse in a primary in 2021 if he runs

  132. What's this I hear about FB commentary during the Golden-Gounardes debate saying that Marty not only admitted that he didn't respond to a woman's inquiries about certain issues because she was a Democrat, he thought his position was proper and nothing to be ashamed of or required any further explanation?

  133. Senator Golden thinks he represents and is answerable to nobody but himself. Get used to it, we got him for two more years, and maybe longer than that.

  134. Saperstein missed a big chance to score some real points at the seniors center debate with some real human interest and a newborn to gush about. Instead the snarks got to jump on Liam and beat him with socks full of old pork pie.

  136. Why did they use old pork pie? Wasn't there any old eel pie?

  137. Socks full of old clam and crab shells works best. It hurts a lot and it really smells bad.

  138. Steve needs to understand that this will always be about Liam and Co. Was a stupid decision not to show up and even worse to send Liam to “explain” why he wasn’t there. Frontus gave a very good presentation yesterday.
