Kassar pretty much says that, as far as he's concerned, lying is the same as the truth


With his "Jewel in the Crown " candidate caught way off base with a phony photo-shopped picture showing Nicole Malliotakis about to deliver COVID-19 supplies to those in need  ---  Jerry Kassar said he was fine with it  ---  and then tried to blame  >>> those who noticed <<<  the phony picture of Nicole and the supplies


This story made the city-wide papers  ---  and it has legs  ---  at least one Dem operator thinks that this might be the worst poison pill yet for what's left of Nicole's campaign


Kassar's remarks pretty much indicate that all of his side's literature in 2020 will be a "fake news" operation



There will be more about this in due course.....

  4. Kassar's 'Dream Team' >>> Phony Nicole and phony Vito <<<

    They go together like 'Sponge Bob' AND 'Square Pants'

  5. Funny how the old Grimm crew has joined Saladino in blasting Nicole for this. And Nicole’s minions can’t say a word in response to them because they used to trash Nicole right along with them.

  6. 2:44 Gale nice try. Your hard on for Vito has nothing to do with Nicole’s photo shop troubles.

    FIRST, I NEEDED TO IMPORT THESE TWO COMMENTS FROM ANOTHER RECENT COMMENTS THREAD ON THIS BLOG:

    Gale we know you’re the one writing most of these nasty comments about people. Conversations with yourself.... April 10, 2020 at 3:22 PM....

    Gale you're delusional if you think you had anything to do with Nicole being exposed. People are hip to your jive now. The nastier and more bitter you get the more obvious who is feeding you this garbage.... April 10, 2020 at 3:35 PM"

    THAT IS ALL WELL AND GOOD..... AND JUST KEEP THEM CARDS AND LETTERS COMIN' !!!!!

    AS AND FOR MY FIRST FYI >>> BETWEEN 10:00 AM YESTERDAY AND 10:00 AM TODAY OVER 1200 VISITORS TO THIS BLOG LISTENED IN ON MY TALKING TO MYSELF.....

    It sure ain't "viral" --- BUT --- It sure ain't nothin' either.....

    AS AND FOR MY SECOND FYI >>> TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FRIENDS WITH COMPLETELY DIFFERENT REAL INTERESTS IN THE 2020 ELECTIONS SENT ME "HEADS UP" E-MAILS ABOUT NICOLE'S PHOTO-SHOPPED COVID-19 VITAL SUPPLIES - AND WHERE'S WALDO FIASCO --- HOWEVER, THE MAIN ARTICLE ABOVE IS MINE, AND WHERE DO I SAY THAT I'M THE ONE WHO FIGURED OUT THE PHOTO-SHOP SCAM OR THAT I BROKE THE STORY ???

  10. Maybe I just read more carefully than some of your "1200" mostly imaginary and bot visitors but here you go: "Just look what a few of us got together and did to the Kassar-Malliotakis cabal (see my next feature post above)." This comment is one that you actually attribute to yourself instead of the other "anonymous" comments that you so obviously post. Must be hard to keep up sometimes I guess.

  18. Nicole was concerned about the health and safety of our seniors. Thats what counts Gale. Not politics.

  19. 1224, you need to learn the words of the "Scarecrow's Song" from the WOO..... You know, the one that keeps repeating '... if I only had a brain...'

    That would be useful for you, because if you only had a brain, you would never make a comment like this, 'Nicole was concerned about the health and safety of our seniors. Thats what counts Gale. Not politics.'

    ReplyDelete
  20. 1111, you need to learn this song just this way:
    'And they will raise him up on chicken wings
    Spare us from his breath of beer
    Make him to pine for just one more
    And hit him with the back
    Of your hand....'

  21. Nicole wants to cut funding for the W.H.O.

    Rose supports W.H.O.

    Thats what matters Gale. Not silly pictures.

    ReplyDelete
  22. If you know Nicole, deep down you know she doesn't care about anyone or anything else.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Nicole cares. Her entire career has always been about public service.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Max Rose is helping people in new orleans. We need help here in the 11th.

  25. Max Rose is serving in the military reserves. He goes where he's told. Unlike's Nicole's rat dog.

  26. RESPONSE: THE "WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE" EDITION

    TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 8:47 PM"

    WHAT LAUGHINGLY GETS TO BE CALLED NICOLE MALLIOTAKIS' CAMPAIGN FOR CONGRESS CLEARLY PARADES ITS SHORTCOMINGS FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE --- IN THIS INSTANCE, HOW TONE DEAF AND OUT OF STEP WITH WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON AT LEAST ONE OF NICOLE'S SUPPORTERS IS

    ANY PUBLISHED POLITICAL STATEMENT ABOUT NICOLE'S OPPONENT, CONGRESSMAN MAX ROSE, THAT BEGINS WITH "MAX ROSE IS HELPING PEOPLE IN NEW ORLEANS..." HAS JUST SCORED A BIG WIN FOR MAX ROSE..... AND THE VALUE OF THAT WIN GETS BUILT UP TO EXTREME HEIGHTS WHEN SOMEBODY SPEAKING FOR MAX ROSE GETS TO RESPOND WITH THIS "ALL IN" CALL: "MAX ROSE IS SERVING IN THE MILITARY RESERVES...."


    Going back to the real news of the main post above --- the part about Jerry Kassar's not caring about the truth or falsehood of what is in Nicole Malliotakis' published material presenting her to the public as somebody worthy of support --- it is really beginning to look that NOTHING can be done or said that makes Nicole Malliotakis look good compared to Max Rose whether what's done or said contains a fundamental truth or falsehood.

    The two comments above "... at 8:47 PM" and "... at 8:09 AM" have the net effect of showing that during this Coronavirus crisis as a member of the U.S. armed forces, Congressman Max Rose is serving fellow Americans in New Orleans, specifically fellow Americans that have no interest in his re-election. AND, on the other hand, some Nicole Malliotakis supporter chides Congressman Rose for doing it.

    Compare that to Jerry Kassar's approving, even after the Malliotakis campaign got caught out, a phony release that showed Nicole being somewhere she wasn't and doing something that she didn't.

    This whole little comparison of what Max and Nicole are doing about and for the Coronavirus COVID-19 victims will have more legs than a centipede --- each with a hobnail boot on it to kick Nicole and Jerry's asses --- you do the math on how many times.....

  27. Chamberas picked the wrong year to buy Mets season tickets

    ReplyDelete
  28. 9:43 Good points Galewyn. This story isn't going away. It was featured in the Daily News and now the Washington Post has picked it up. What makes me wonder is why the RNC hasn't stepped in yet? The Nicole's response to this story has been amateur hour.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Nicoles call to get the needed $1,200 to seniors who no longer file tax returns was a brilliant move by Kassar. This move demonstrates the common sense approach about steering government services to constituents. Meanwhile Rose continues to double dip on on federal checks for himself that serve as great backdrops for campaign photos.

    I'll stick with the candidate who sticks with us.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I actually don't blame Nicole campaign but feel sorry for them. They the ones who look stupid with this whole mess and can't do a thing about it because Nicole calling all the shots and she don't listen to no one but Gerry.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Nothing can help Nicole.

    ReplyDelete
  32. So sad that a promising young leader destroyed her career with such a relentless and frenzied grab for elective office.

    Nicole, no political position is worth selling out everything you believe, everything you've fought for (and against). Not even a seat in the United States Congress.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Nick Chambers needs to stop lashing out at kassar and Nicole because he was booted in favor of other, more experienced and professional folks. Nick will always be a little boy- he has no guts or spine to stand up for himself other than anonymously here.

    ReplyDelete
  34. 3:56 nice try! If the grammar was a little better and the syntax different that might be Nick Chamberas but obviously not and better luck next time. Sure he must be flattered and also grateful that he's far away from this mess. Nicole does have a good team with smart nice people on board, she would do well to listen to them more.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm new to this Blog. No offense but it looks like a circular firing squad. Instead of focusing on Nicole's Photoshopping - not a smart move - why aren't we slamming Justin Brannan for it? I'm not saying everyone needs to fall in line like good little soldiers but perspective on the larger hopefully shared objectives would be productive.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Biden will help Max big time. I can feel it.

    ReplyDelete
  37. 8:42 good question with a simple answer. JB is a low IQ buffoon who is a councilman because his opponent dropped the ball last time and won't lose again because Bay Ridge has never voted out an incumbent councilman. He actually posts on this blog too. We know we won't win that seat. The Rose seat is something we should win easily but anybody who knows even a little about Nicole knows that as smart as she is she has self destructive tendencies. She could've owned up to this right away, should have asked conservatives to take it down. Instead she won't dare do any of that and makes her staff pretend it didn't happen while DCCC has a field day promoting it and its picked up by the Washington Post and Daily News. Oh yea and Joe Cal her primary opponent is no slouch in the intelligence department with a law degree and former special victims prosecutor is now running the conservatives own ad against Nicole on YouTube. The Nicole Bros defending her on social media just look stupid.

    BEING "NEW TO THIS BLOG" IS NO EXCUSE.....

    THERE'S A FEW THINGS THAT YOU NEED TO GET STRAIGHT --- OR --- YOU NEED TO GET LOST.....

    A "CIRCULAR FIRING SQUAD" IS THE ONLY KIND OF FIRING SQUAD THAT ALWAYS HITS ITS TARGET

    WE DON'T SLAM JUSTIN BRANNAN --- PERIOD --- FULL STOP !!!!! HE IS TOO VALUABLE FOR A LOT OF REASONS.....

    AND MOST IMPORTANT --- NEVER MAKE THE MISTAKE OF THINKING THAT THERE ARE "LARGER... SHARED OBJECTIVES" AMONG THIS VINTAGE OF BROOKLYN REPUBLICANS EVER AGAIN --- INSIDE THE BROOKLYN GOP, THERE HAVE BEEN NO "SHARED OBJECTIVES" FOR YEARS


    But otherwise, WELCOME ABOARD..... It's so nice to have your fresh input.....

    I HAVE IT ON THE BEST AUTHORITY, THAT HIS IMMENSENESS, JB, HAS POSTED AN ANONYMOUS THING OR THREE HERE ON THIS BLOG --- HOWEVER, IT'S BEEN SO INFREQUENTLY AS TO BE HARDLY NOTICEABLE


    FYI, be careful about any "word" that gets around too quickly.....

  41. Whatever you think of Brannan, his photoshop escapade didn't wind up in a national paper. Nicole's done it's over and now the donors have another excuse to why they're staying out.

  42. Anybody who thinks Brannan doesn't play footsy with the local Republican leadership is just plain fooling themselves. Deals are made, my friends, deals are made.... This is Bay Ridge, Jack.

  45. 2:51 must be one of those ex political consultants nobody will hire. No donors are looking for an "excuse to stay out". Real donors dont make excuses to hang on to a few bucks.

    Nobody noticed the common practice of photo enhancement that most professional campaigns use.

  46. Nicole will become a national figure during her first year in Congress.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Maybe, but that first year won't be in this decade.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Malliotakis will never have any years in congress, because she already is a national figure of ridicule. That's all because Nicole Malliotakis allowed her people to double down on her "big lie" that she was personally delivering supplies to Coronavirus victims around her district when, in realty, she wasn't anywhere near either her Assembly District or the congressional district where she is running for congress.

    After her first 'It just doesn't matter!' excuse crashed like a lead balloon, her team has tried to use a variety of 'Everybody does it!' excuses. The most recent being the 'Nobody noticed...' part of a comment by 'Anonymous 9:21 AM' right here only a few notches up the totem pole from this comment.

    They really must be kidding when they say that 'Nobody noticed...'

    ReplyDelete
  49. Forgive 9:21 she's just drinking the kool aid. Nicole's fundraising has been pitiful since the summer. There are actually other NYC Republican candidates in unwinnable races that have raised more money than Nicole. The truth is that no current or former consultant worth anything will risk their reputation to work with her. Nobody noticed the photoshop? It made the Daily News and Washington Post and went viral. The DCCC is fundraising off of it. Some of her own supporters were so upset they initially thought it was fake news and that it didn't happen. One poor lady demanded Joe take down his post because she thought he was lying.

    ReplyDelete
  50. The Nicole bros really need to calm down. They can deny all they want and make stupid excuse like everybody does it but this ain’t going away.

    Fact remains while our Congressman is on active duty helping fellow Americans, Gerry’s puppet was probably in hiding wearing a hazmat suit making calls to donors begging for money.

    TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 10:10 AM"

    IT'S NOT ABOUT THE PHOTOSHOP-ING, STUPID..... IT'S ABOUT THE "BIG LIE" BEHIND THE PHOTOSHOP-ING OF A CHEAP AND PHONY POL NAMED "NICOLE" >>> PRETENDING <<< TO DO A GOOD DEED, GETTING CAUGHT AT THE LIE --- AND THEN TRYING TO >>> TOUGH IT OUT <<< WITH ONE PATHETIC EXCUSE AFTER ANOTHER

    A LIE IS A LIE IS A LIE --- A PHONY IS A PHONY IS A PHONY --- AND --- A LOSER IS A LOSER IS A LOSER


    My message to and about our current Republican-Conservative candidate for Congress in Staten Island and parts of Brooklyn, Nicole Malliotakis, and EACH AND EVERYONE of the obviously intellectually and morally challenged folks that still support her is quite simple. However, it does require a bit of background in 20th Century fictional villainy..... Just think of Nicole's "Lord and Master in politics, policy and perfidy," Gerard Kassar, as Sax Rohmer's "Doctor Fu Manchu".....

    To Nicole and the rest of you: instead of thinking of the old adage: "If the shoe fits, wear it...."; think of it this way: "When the Fu shits, wear it...."

  58. Nicole has done more for Bay Ridge in the last 3 months than Justin has done in the last 3 years.

  60. Shouldn't Nick be doing something to help Vito Bruno instead of bashing Nicole here?

    ReplyDelete
  61. I heard Justin got a job. With benefits.

    ReplyDelete
  62. 8:43 AKA Nicole. Maybe you should take a deep breath in that I think if Nick C ever decided to bash Nicole it wouldn't be on this blog and it wouldn't involve something as amateurish as a failed photoshop that speaks for itself. Might be a good idea to worry more about stupid mistakes that give Joey Salads more followers and Joe Cal hope, instead of imagining enemies where they don't exist and people who just don't care about the latest blunder of a struggling campaign.

  63. Vito has Andy cornered.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Losing any substantial chunk of the GOP vote, like 25%, in a GOP primary is closer to being a knock than a boost.

    By its nature, momentum is movement; however not all movement is momentum --- what is the momentum of the surf pounding a beach? Sometimes the surf erodes the beach, others it deposits sand onto the beach.
