Vito Bruno needs to address why so many people around him and/or his campaign appear to be virulent anti-semites


Whiney Ratso Vito Bruno has a significant personal "Jewish Problem" ---  maybe he needs to consult with his former top campaign aide Raymond Ranaletta, whose internet postings indicate his familiarity and comfort in dealing with a political history in Germany that was notorious in dealing with its "Jewish Problem"


Bruno's most immediate PROBLEM arose when his "estranged" wife piled her own internet postings on top of the bile that was bilged by Ranaletta  ---  According to the NY Daily News,  "....  Since the outbreak of coronavirus,  [Vito Bruno's] spouse, Patricia Bruno, has spread stereotypes, recounted a confrontation she initiated with Orthodox children and shared a petition calling for an investigation into “welfare fraud” by Hasidic Jews...."


To date, the response  >>> to these indicia of virulent anti-Semitism so close to a candidate for public office <<<  from Vito Bruno and the Bruno Campaign for the New York State Senate has been COMPLETELY INADEQUATE



A few days ago the Daily News did a major hit piece on the Republican-Conservative candidate for the New York State Senate against Democrat incumbent Andrew Gounardes  (See "Estranged wife of Brooklyn state Senate candidate Vito Bruno attacks Orthodox Jewish people on Facebook" by Shant Shahrigian,  10/25/2020,  NY Daily News/ Mew York Politics/ Politics/ News  [https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/new-york-elections-government/ny-vito-bruno-brooklyn-patricia-bruno-20201025-lqcbrot2h5gohcltsxt55jlht4-story.html]).

In the Daily News coverage, there was no quote or personal response of any kind from the candidate himself, Vito Bruno.  Instead, the Vito Bruno campaign made this statement on behalf of the candidate  >>>  "Vito Bruno repeatedly and unequivocally has stated that anti-Semitism is unacceptable in our society.... He has been separated from his wife for ten years, and clearly there’s a reason. He does not accept these views.”  Oddly, that statement seems quite snarky and personally directed at Vito Bruno's wife Patricia for something coming out of a "campaign" by a campaign spokesperson  ---  especially in light of the fact that Patricia Bruno has contributed to Vito Bruno's political activities.

Since the problem came up, Vito Bruno has made an additional well-tailored formalistic statement that was reported in the "Brooklyn Paper."  See for yourself  >>>  "I ask voters to judge me on myself and my character; I have stood side by side with civil rights groups for decades....  I strongly condemn anti-Semitism, any racism and bigotry in any form no matter where it comes from. The Gounardes campaign has focused on trying to smear me because they don’t want to talk about the real issues in this race.”  This is neither a heartfelt nor a detailed explanation of the anti-Semitism swirling around Vito Bruno  >>>  it is a minimalist and barebones political statement, and it's linked to a typical Whiney Vito Bruno personal swipe at his opponent.....

We here at "The Brooklyn & Staten Island Independent GOP Fountainhead" have done a search and can find nothing more from Vito Bruno or his campaign about the anti-Semitism that apparently has permeated his life and his politics.  Just like his personal history of unlawful and even illegal operations of a variety of businesses over the years, Vito Bruno and his campaign has whitewashed any history of anti-Semitism by well-crafted psuedo-denials and evasions.  This just isn't good enough for a campaign so dependent on positive support from the Jewish communities in Bruno's district  ---  especially since Bruno's wife specifically attacked the members of those communities.

  1. First they were forced to distance from Raymon "Hitler was right" Ranaletta. Then Daddy Warbucks Ted Ghorra turned off the Neverending cash faucet. Then all the outside money pulled up stakes for Garden City to focus on taking out Senator Thomas. Then desperate Liam left the kitchen cabinet to make $100 a day as a OLPH poll worker. Heck, even the Mcguire Realty boy hasn't been coming around Ember's much anymore. With less then a week to go, Team Bruno is a sad and typical portrait of a campaign in free fall

  2. I suspect the Jews in Brooklyn are well advised to ignore last minute campaign smears. The Andy supporting DSA pro palestine faction matters.

  8. UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "VITO BRUNO COMES FULL CIRCLE & USES THE SAME WHINEY DEFENSE OF HIMSELF THAT HE TRIED WAY BACK WHEN....." EDITION

    RATSO VITO COMPLAINS IN TODAY'S NY POST ABOUT THE EDIE FALCO TV AD SMASHING HIS OWN WELL-DOCUMENTED HISTORY INVOLVING DRUGS, VIOLENCE, AND POLICE CORRUPTION --- EXACTLY THE SAME WAY SO MANY MONTHS AGO THAT HE TRIED TO DEFEND HIMSELF ON THIS BLOG >>> AFTER WE FIRST BROUGHT UP HIS PERSONAL HISTORY WITH DRUGS, VIOLENCE, POLICE CORRUPTION, AND BEING A NOTORIOUS LATE NIGHT DISTURBER OF THE PEACE AND A PUBLIC NUISANCE <<<


    Here's how both Vito and the NY Post finished off their most recent attempt to clean up the story of the messed up life of Vito Bruno --- "I never sold drugs to anyone nor have I ever been involved with organized crime – the commercial is insulting to Italian Americans and highlights stereotypes so many of us have fought to overcome. Gounardes used one line in a book about my friendship with John Belushi forty years ago and distorted it to make me and the young people who frequented New York Clubs into criminals, when instead he should be telling voters why he voted for bail reform and why he is allowing the state to cut funding to Special Needs community and small business owners."

    So much whining and self-pity mixed in with outright lies, one wonders how a grown-up man could possibly make such a mealy-mouthed rebuttal --- much less let it get published for city-wide distribution.

    This is just like how Vito Bruno and his campaign recently tried to whitewash his close connections to people openly expressing anti-Semitism --- only this time, it's Vito Bruno and some shills at the NY Post trying to whitewash any history of Vito's unlawful and even illegal operations of a variety of businesses over the years, by well-crafted psuedo-denials and evasions.

    We here at "The Brooklyn & Staten Island Independent GOP Fountainhead" didn't let him get away with that before, and we sure as hell won't let him get away with it this time..... But Vito and the rest of you will have to wait until I can put together a feature length compilation of some of Vito's most notable prior personal connections to drugs, violence, police corruption and organized crime.

  9. What an egomaniacal lying sonofabitch that Vito Bruno is.
    Woodward's book, 'Wired' isn't 'a book about [Vito Bruno's] friendship with John Belushi forty years ago', and there was much more negative stuff in it about Bruno than one line about giving Belushi the kinds of drugs that were in his body when he died a few days later.

  14. RESPONSE: THE "I AM THE TRUTH TELLER NOT BOB WOODWARD AND/OR VITO BRUNO" EDITION

    TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 11:33 AM" & "... AT 11:45 AM"

    WHETHER BOB WOODWARD TOLD THE TRUTH OR NOT IN HIS BOOK "WIRED" US NOT THE ISSUE >>> WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT WOODWARD DID A THEN-CONTEMPORARY INTERVIEW WITH A BRAGADOCIOUS NIGHT CLUB OWNER NAMED VITO BRUNO, WHO BRAGGED ABOUT GIVING DRUGS TO A DRUG-CRAZED JOHN BELUSHI DURING HIS LAST HOURS OF LIFE >>> THERE IS NOTHING IN WOODWARD'S BOOK ABOUT VITO BRUNO'S BEING A FRIEND OF JOHN BELUSHI --- WOODWARD'S REPORT ABOUT VITO BRUNO'S PART IN BELUSHI'S DEATH IS MORE THAN IN ONE LINE AND MORE THAN ON ONE PAGE

    IF THE MOON IS BLUE AND PRESIDENT TRUMP RUNS WAY AHEAD IN THE 22ND STATE SENATE DISTRICT AND TRUMP'S COATTAILS CARRY VITO ACROSS THE LINE AS A "WINNER" --- "LOWER TAXES AND RETURN TO SAFETY [IS NOT] WHAT VITO BRUNO WILL DO"..... THE ELECTION OF VITO BRUNO WILL MAKE NO DIFFERENCE AT ALL --- FROM DAY ONE JANUARY 1, 2021 UNTIL JANUARY 1, 2023 VITO BRUNO'S LAST POSSIBLE DAY IN THE SENATE EVER DUE TO REAPPORTIONMENT >>> VITO BRUNO WILL BE A JUNIOR MEMBER OF A SMALL MINORITY CAUCUS [IN FACT, THE DEMOCRATS ARE CLOSE TO A FUNCTIONING SUPER-MAJORITY]


    Not only are the comments referred to herein above wrong >>> they are knowingly wrong, as in "lies"..... Worse than that, they are pathological lies, as in malignant delusions.....

  25. Brooklyn GOP Chairperson Ted Ghorra said the Gounardes-Bruno race is the dirtiest he's ever seen in his political career. Makes sense since Ghorra has only been around for 18 months.

  26. 1117 Hey, shit for brains! Why do such a bad job of fact checking yourself? I could look up the exact dates, but I really don't care, though GOP Choreman Ted Ghorra has been around plenty more than eighteen months; even before a Democrat machine judge put him into the GOP figurehead spot as Marty Golden's choice during the summer of 2016. That was after Ted Ghorra had lost it to Arnaldo Ferrara on the streets and at the 2015 GOP County Convention.

  33. RESPONSE: THE "BEING ANTI-VITO BRUNO & ANTI-BOB CAPANO IS NOT ANTI-REPUBLICAN OR ANTI-CONSERVATIVE, BUT IT IS A MORAL IMPERATIVE" EDITION

    TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... 1:14 PM"

    >>> SINCE YOU ASKED <<< NOBODY NEEDS TO SUPPORT WHINEY RATSO VITO BRUNO BECAUSE HE SAYS THAT HE IS A LAW & ORDER CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN >>> BECAUSE EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE MAN SHOWS THAT IT'S A BIG LIE.....

    AS FOR SMALL HANDS AND FEET BOB CAPANO --- WHEN IT CAME TO BOB CAPANO'S STEPPING UP TO AN INFECTION COMING INTO THE BROOKLYN GOP WORSE THAN COVID-19 >>> BOB CAPANO WAS YET AGAIN VERY, VERY SMALL --- INSTEAD, ONCE AGAIN, IN PUBLIC AND IN PRIVATE, BOB COULDN'T RISE TO THE OCCASSION


    It is a moral imperative to oppose anybody that calls himself a community values, law & order conservative Republican, when the record clearly and unambiguously says that he is not. That is what my opposition to Vito Bruno is 100% about.

    The record is clear, Vito Bruno has conducted his businesses over the last four decades in a down and dirty, anything goes way. In short, he is a self-promoting, avaricious and sociopathic character, who has made his money on the most extreme edge of a business that makes its cash by people compulsively searching for sex, drugs & rock'n'roll.

    Let's be specific about Vito Bruno's very blue period. First, during the rapidly rising pandemic of AIDS in Manhattan, Vito Bruno managed, operated and owned Manhattan after-hours and night clubs that fostered random and unprotected sex --- not only in their exclusive private and super-private rooms and lounges, but also in the bathrooms, halls and stair wells, and even occasionally on the dance floors. Contemporaneously, his venues were rife with both conventional heavy drugs, as well as a variety of designer night-club drugs >>> and Vito Bruno has admitted to being a personal procurer of such drugs for his most notable customers.

    Next, part of the look and vibe of Vito's clubs and the music that he produced and promoted was gun violence, and he even used gang-bangers for his security crews at his clubs and events. What's more, Vito Bruno's apprentice and protege in the "Outlaw" parties and events part of his business was convicted of murdering the principal drug dealer at one of Vito's clubs.

    Also, part'n'parcel for Vito's club operations were payoff's to cops and others..... That's something else that Vito Bruno admitted to in a variety of interviews --- even bragging about his personal generosity to some of his guys on the pad in a NY Times article about police corruption and NYS's night clubs.

    Since, Vito's glory days in the clubs, many of Vito's top Hip-Hop artists made themselves and Vito much of his money by glorifying drugs and drug-related violence. Furthermore, Vito Bruno has done multiple interviews where he is nostalgic and longs for the glory days of his after-hours and night clubs. That too has been monetized by Vito who keeps throwing nostalgia disco and Hip-Hop events to relive the glory days at his clubs and other events.

    Whiney Ratso Vito Bruno has never had anything like a "Come to Jesus" moment. Vito Bruno repents nothing; no, he wallows and revels in all of it.....

    As I said above, "It's a moral imperative to oppose Vito Bruno"..... That's something Bob Capano is incapable of doing --- and it will do him in, both sooner and later as well.....

    JFK HAD A BLOODY HEAD WOUND --- AND IN ALL OF THE SIXTY PRESIDENT KENNEDY ASSASSINATION BOOKS THAT I HAVE BACK IN STATEN ISLAND, NOT ONE OF THEM SAID THAT VITO BRUNO WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SAVE JFK IF HE WAS IN THE ER AT PARKLAND HOSPITAL ON NOVEMBER 22, 1963.....

    ".... THE LAST HOPE FOR GOP EXISTENCE IS VITO...." --- SERIOUSLY ??? --- I MEAN >>> SERIOUSLY !!!


    Everybody should know that serious arterial bleeding above the neck does not call for a tourniquet around the neck. Whether anybody recognizes that Vito Bruno is a noose around the neck of the Brooklyn GOP, or not --- I'll keep trying to kick the soap box out from under the Brooklyn GOP as long as Vito Bruno is tightly wound around the throat of Brooklyn Republicans in the 22nd NYS Senate District.

    Like I said before >>> IT IS A MORAL IMPERATIVE.....
