We have met the enemy and they are us.....
With less than a week until election day >>> Brian Fox and the Brian Fox for City Council campaign, has decided to shift it's messaging completely --- and for seventy-two hours now --- has barraged us all with fake news and the misreporting of known facts >>> that had long been established and reported by the local and city-wide press concerning Michael Bistreich and his claims against the City of New York, and Councilman Vincent Gentile and the prominent Staten Island Democrat John Mancuso, Gentile's former Chief of Staff --- with Justin Brannan at most barely mentioned and then only on the periphery <<<
By going all-in on a tactic that failed against Justin Brannan in 2017 --- the Brian Fox braintrust, headed by Liam McCabe, has all but conceded that everything else that they had tried against Justin Brannan in their 2021 campaign has been a failure
And then, in the last few days of their dying campaign --- by presenting their own newly produced and newly edited "Hostage-style video" of Michael Bistreich, Brian Fox and his whole crew have now publlcly demonstrated that they are more than willing and content to be nothing more than "Urban Terrorists" >>> What next the release of a video tape of a public beheading of ".... Mikey..." by Brian Fox and Liam McCabe in some cave in front of a yellow and black lawn sign, with all the rest of their cell cheering to show how bad >>> the other side is ???
And are the Republican and Conservative parties in Brooklyn happy to be allied with the likes of the new "Urban Terrorists" Brian Fox and Liam McCabe ?????
Just look at what the Brooklyn GOP and Conservative Party have become by following Liam McCabe down the rabbit hole along with his over-sized, bald-headed, fleecey bunny Fox......
BACKFILL: THE "ORIGINAL BISTREICH VERSION DIDN'T BLAME BRANNAN AT ALL..." EDITION
ReplyDeleteNOW THAT FOX AND MC CABE HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED WITH HIM --- BISTREICH SAYS THAT BRANNAN IS A TERRIBLE PERSON THAT DID TERRIBLE THINGS TO HIM THAT LED TO BISTREICH'S LAWSUIT BLAMING TWO OTHER PEOPLE --- NOW, THAT IS 100% FOX-MC CABE LOGIC.....
The Daily News report from when "MIKEY" Bistreich filed his lawsuit in 2016 mentioned both Gentile and Mancuso, but there wasn't a single thing about Justin Brannan. Bistreich's story at the time was also reported on in the SI Advance/ silive, the NY Post, the Daily Mail (UK), by NBC News, WPIX, patch.com, pressreader, and other outlets --- none mentioned Justin Brannan, either by name or by description.
In fact, the Daily News report of 12/6/2016, and the SI Advance/ silive report on 12/7/2016 both describe someone >>> other than Justin Brannan <<< as the unnamed person that told Vincent Gentile the joke about Bistreich needing to check that the doors were locked at the Avonte Oquendo/ Avonte's Law press conference [in the Urban Terrorist video, a hostage-like Mikey Bistreich now says that it was Brannan, in spite of what he told the News and the Advance in 2016]. Also at the same time in 2016, NBC News reported that Bistreich had specifically said that the other Gentile staff members couldn't help him, even if they wanted to, because they were too much under the control of Gentile and Mancuso. The pressreader report goes further, and it strongly implies that it was then-Cheif of Staff John Mancuso that had the real problems with Bistreich continuing on Gentile's staff.
People that challenged are not capable of fibbing.
ReplyDeleteDesperate pols that read the writing on the wall always fib.
Why are they calling him Mikey? Nobody calls him Mikey
ReplyDeleteThey are trying to infantilize him like he is an innocent child?
He sued the city for $10 million bucks. He is as shrewd as they come
Maybe Liam is hoping "Mikey" will help pay for an apartment so he can move out of his mother in law's basement
RESPONSE: THE "THERE ARE 'FIBS' AND THERE IS THE 'BIG LIE' CANDIDACY OF BRIAN FOX" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 2:05 PM"
WHEN YOU SAY "... PEOPLE THAT CHALLENGED..." ARE YOU REFERRING TO MICHAEL BISTREICH OR HIS MOTHER KATHY ??? BECAUSE THEY ARE ODDLY TELLING THE EXACT SAME, AS YOU CALL THEM, 'FIB[S]' IN THE FURTHERANCE OF THE LATEST BRIAN FOX AND LIAM MC CABE "BIG LIE" ATTACK ON JUSTIN BRANNAN >>> THE "BLAME BRANNAN FOR BISTREICH" OCTOBER SURPRISE.....
The lastest posting on the Brian Fox for City Council Facebook page contains a recording by somebody calling herself Michael Bistreich's mother Kathy. Given his prior reputation for dishonesty, it's just as likely that it's Brian Fox's real mom [but that's another story for another time]. Now, why would we ask if this so-called Bistreich's mom "Kathy" is the real deal ???
Well, Bunky, we're gonna tell yuh. You see, this "mom" Kathy starts out by misspelling "Bistreich" as "Biestreich" and finishes up by saying that Mikey was awarded something by the court, when he wasn't --- the case was "settled" --- that means it's a contract or stipulated agreement, and not any kind of " award," even if it's "So Ordered" by the court. She also seems to be talking about a lot of stuff that she was never around to see when it supposedly happened.
Now, we're not saying that Mikey and his mom are a couple of grifters, just because they might have told a few fibs lately. However, they are now under the influence of a pair of master grifters, Brian Fox and Liam McCabe.
His name is Michael.

ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 5:52 PM"
WAS YOUR SNARKY "HIS NAME IS MICHAEL...." DIRECTED AT US ON THIS INDEPENDENT GOP BLOG, OR AT BRIAN FOX AND HIS ENABLERS, OR AT BOTH OF US ???
Brian Fox and his team corrected the misspelling of "Bistreich" on Fox campaign's posting of the Kathy-person's recording, but Fox and his guys still refer to "Mikey" in their final hashtag: "... #believemikey...."
So, it looks like this blog's criticism and corrective admonitions have more influence than your's do.....
FYI, our use of "Mikey" was an intentional use of the >>> DIMINUTIVE <<< of "Michael" --- because Fox and the Fox campaign were using it.
BTW, unless you are Michael Bistreich, he has corrected neither Fox nor the Fox campaign team for it's use of the diminutive "Mikey" either with or without hashtag.....
Daily News has full page article detailing Justin Bro culture and shady stock scam. And of course a lawsuit that I'm sure he'll claim he had nothing to do with.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Bro.
Justin bio claims he was a big time stock trader till the firm got bagged. Now he claims he was an intern. Stories seems to flip flop with Mr Bay ridge !1
ReplyDeletebig lies ?????
ReplyDeletea real newspaper differs.
RESPONSE: THE "VERY INTERESTING ARTICLE IN THE DAILY NEWS --- WHAT IT DID AND DIDN'T SAY" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 7:06 AM"; "... AT 8:09 AM" & "... AT 9:18 AM"
WELL, WELL, WELL !!! >>> NOW <<< IT SEEMS YOU FINALLY AGREE WITH US HERE AT THIS HUMBLE INDEPENDENT CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN BLOG --- THAT A CANDIDATE'S PERSONAL, BUSINESS & FINANCIAL, AND WORK HISTORY(IES) ARE SOMETHING THAT IS (ARE) VERY IMPORTANT
SO IT NOW SEEMS THAT BOTH BRIAN FOX AND JUSTIN BRANNAN MIGHT HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMATIC ITEMS ON THEIR FINANCE BUSINESS RESUMES --- WITH LESS THAN A WEEK TO GO BEFORE THE ELECTION, THERE'S PROBABLY NOT MUCH THAT EITHER SIDE CAN DO WITH THE LATEST TIDBIT ABOUT BRANNAN AND/OR THE VOLUMINOUS MATERIAL ABOUT THE QUESTIONABLE FINANCE ADVISOR POSITIONS THAT BRIAN FOX HAS ADMITTED TO >>> AND A FEW THAT HE HASN'T <<<
SINCE, EVERYTHING IN THE 2021 CAMPAIGN FOR CITY COUNCIL IS LARGELY BAKED INTO THE CAKE --- IT IS VERY INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT TODAY'S DAILY NEWS ARTICLE ABOUT BRANNAN MENTIONS THAT HE IS THE LEADING CANDIDATE TO BE THE NY CITY COUNCIL SPEAKER, BECAUSE OF HIS CLOSE ASSOCIATION WITH NYC'S NEXT MAYOR ERIC ADAMS --- HOWEVER, THERE WAS ONLY THE MEREST PEEP ABOUT SOMEBODY NAMED BRIAN FOX; AND IT WAS THAT JUSTIN BRANNAN WAS VERY LIKELY TO BEAT HIM NEXT TUESDAY
IN OTHER WORDS >>> AS TO THERE BEING ANY REAL CHALLENGE TO JUSTIN BRANNAN BY THE PRESENT REPUBLICAN-CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE FOR CITY COUNCIL FROM THE 43RD COUNCIL DISTRICT, BRIAN FOX, "... A REAL NEWSPAPER DIFFERS...." THAT THERE IS ANY <<< THE GIST OF THE DAILY NEWS PIECE WAS THAT BRANNAN ISN'T FACING ANY KIND OF COMPETITIVE CHALLENGE FROM OUTSIDE HIS OWN PARTY FROM THIS MOMENT FORWARD, AND THE "NEWS" ABOUT HIS PAST CAREER IN FINANCE MIGHT ONLY EFFECT THE OUTCOME OF THE RACE FOR COUNCIL SPEAKER.....
"The Brooklyn & Staten Island Independent GOP Fountainhead" reports on everything that it sees and/or hears concerning the Brooklyn races pursued by the Brooklyn GOP and its Conservative Party "allies"..... That includes "... The Good, the Bad and the Ugly."
When it comes to the 43rd Council District, we have said very little that is "good" about either Democrat Counncilman Justin Brannan, or his Republican-Conservative challenger, Brian Fox --- however, both have a lot of "bad" and "ugly" in them. On the other hand, we have written plenty about the "bad" and "ugly" of Brian Fox, and the "bad" and "ugly" City Council race for Fox that has been run by Liam McCabe. That's because there just has been so much material there that needed to be reported about both Brian Fox and his campaign.
That Daily News article is awful. They spell Brannan’s name wrong at least once and have this nonsense sentence. “That role is decided by a vote among sitting Council members, but by the general public.”
ReplyDeleteWhat are the chances that the article was taken whole from material that Team-Fox had submitted to the Daily News reporter?
ReplyDeleteWhat are the chances that the article causes voters to think twice about justin?
ReplyDelete4:41 -- zero.
DeleteJustin interns or brokers at firm and bro culture porn is on display ending in lawsuits. Justin denies it.
ReplyDeleteJustin works in another neighborhood office and bro culture in on display ending in lawsuits. Justin denies it.
Maybe its everyone. Or. Maybe its Justin.
No way Brannen survives this.
ReplyDelete7:10, who is this "Brannen"?
DeleteHas justin just been youngkin'd?
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "STILL NO 'THERE' THERE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: THE FEW COMMENTERS ABOVE, WHO ARE ALREADY GOING WAY BEYOND WHAT APPEARED IN THE "DAILY NEWS" ARTICLE ABOUT BRANNAN
IF THE "DAILY NEWS" PIECE WERE REALLY AS THREATENING TO BRANNAN'S PROSPECTS NEXT TUESDAY AS THE FOX SUPPORTERS WANT EVERYBODY TO THINK, THEY WOULD BE QUOTING AND TRACKING WHAT THE ARTICLE DID SAY --- AND THEY WOULD NOT BE SO QUICK IN IGNORING WHAT THE DAILY NEWS ACTUALLY SAID
Just like their man Fox, the Fox supporters keep shifting their messages --- even as they are in the process of trying to tell you what their original message is. Their handling of today's "Daily News" article is typical of that methodology and practice.
Daily News headline calls brannen "Speaker hopeful". Apropo.
ReplyDeleteFox will be a listener.
UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "BISTREICH MAILER" EDITION
ReplyDeleteNOT ONLY HAS THE BRIAN FOX FOR CITY COUNCIL TEAM DONE A VIDEO FEATURING THE ASPERGERS/ AUTISTIC FORMER CITY COUNCIL STAFFER "MIKEY" BISTREICH --- THERE SEEMS TO BE AT LEAST ONE CAMPAIGN MAILER THAT HAS BEEN PRODUCED WHICH FEATURES MIKEY'S MOST RECENT VERSION OF EVENTS THAT HAPPENED A LONG TIME AGO
It should be remembered that at the time Michael Bistreich FIRST made his charges concerning EVERYTHING that had happened to him while working for Councilman Vincent Gentile, "MIKEY" [as in " #BelieveMikey " --- used by Brian Fox and the Fox campaign] didn't mention that fellow Councilman Gentile staff member Justin Brannan was involved in any of the alleged wrongdoing. In two successive political campaigns now, Bistreich's claims against his former friend and co-worker have become more extreme, more explicit and descriptive >>> and less credible. (One newspaper interviewer has even held back on an interview with Michael Bistreich, because the interviewer believed that the young man with Aspergers/ Autism was being influenced and exploited by others).....
Clearly, a person with significant disablitites, Michael Bistreich, is being exploited by the Brian Fox for City Council campaign for purely political purposes. To what extent will only become obvious when all of Fox's campaign mail is delivered --- and whatever other uses Fox, McCabe and company might have for "Mikey," and the stories that he can be made to tell.
The city paid Bistreich. There was a reason for that.
ReplyDeleteJustin reminds me of Terry McCauliffe. Arrogant, lazy and acting like he has no contest.
ReplyDeleteGotcha !!!!
10:59, who is this "McCauliffe"?
DeleteRESPONSE: THE " 'CITY' WAS A NAMED DEFENDANT AND BY LAW WAS JOINTLY LIABLE & RESPONSIBLE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 10:58 AM"
"JUSTIN BRANNAN" WAS >>> NOT <<< A NAMED DEFENDANT AND BY LAW WAS >>> NOT <<< JOINTLY LIABLE & RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING FOR WHICH THE "CITY" PAID "BISTREICH.....
Why don't you know that ? Why do you imply other than that ???
In fact, by bringing Bistreich forward as an active party in the possible (and arguably attempted) "re-litigation" of these matters >>> the "settlement" can be put back into play under a variety of legal principles involving settelments and satisfactions that are very well known and recognized by the courts.
It's no longer just Bistreich. Its the same pattern everyplace justin worked. Or as he now claims interned.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "BRIAN FOX AND THE FOX TEAM ARE DOING WHAT THEY'VE DONE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING --- MAKING STUFF UP....." EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS... AT 11:23 AM"
WE HERE AT THIS INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN BLOG CAN CERTAINLY AGREE WITH YOU THAT IT ISN'T JUST BISTREICH.....
BRIAN FOX, AND HIS "FRIENDS" AND RETAINERS HAVE BEEN LYING ALL ALONG --- IT STARTED WITH FOX'S LIES ABOUT HIMSELF >>> WHO HE IS --- WHERE HE'S FROM --- WHO HIS PARENTS ARE --- WHAT HE HAS ACCOMPLISHED IN LIFE --- THE WHOLE DEAL ------- AND EQUALLY TELLING AND FALSE, FOX'S LIES ABOUT HIS OPPONENT, JUSTIN BRANNAN.....
LET'S FACE IT --- FOX AND HIS TOP GUY MC CABE ARE THE POLITICAL VERSION OF LEOPOLD AND LOEB --- THEY ARE HOLLOW CHARACTERS --- WHO AFFECT BEING POLITICAL THRILL-KILLERS >>> OR MORE ACCURATELY, THEY'RE POLITCAL THRILL-KILLER WANNABEES --- AND IT ALL COMES SO NATURALLY, IT MUST BE FROM SOME DEEP PATHOLOGY INSIDE THEM BOTH
Doubtless, thare are myriad issues that could have, and should have, been raised against Councilman Justin Brannan --- however, Brian Fox and his Brian Fox for City Council campaign completely failed to do that --- because they never did the hard work of doing real research and educating themselves on the issues. Instead, they chased after every shiny thing, like a bunch of pussies trying to catch moving spots of light. Most of the time, Brian Fox, Liam McCabe, and the rest of their crew were chasing the moving spots of light inside their own joint, collective, and several heads.
Needless to say, the worst of it has been the almost complete exploitation of the poor benighted Michael Bistreich. It was bad enough that "Mikey" was victimized by Gentile and Mancuso several years ago, but now he is being even more abused by Brian Fox and his campaign team (who apparently are even willing to jeopardize Bistreich's $850,000 settlement with NYC). One can tell that, if they could, Fox and McCabe would paint Michael Bistreich ORANGE, and make him wear high-waisted suspender pantaloons, so everybody not in their inner circle would be able to see how they've made Bistreich into their perfect Oompa Loompa.
Can Brian Fox or anybody else on his side be willing to name one place where Brian went to school and/or worked that didn't openly manifest Bro culture in many unlawful and distasteful ways?
ReplyDeleteThe Fox campaign exists to grift.
DeleteHopefully when Fox loses miserably, McCabe and Ghorra will move out of Brooklyn......
ReplyDeleteFox's candidacy exists to create fungible funds.
Deletejustin has a shaved head and is coveted in tatoos. get it
ReplyDelete'bro-culture' is another shiny made up bit of nothingness that came out of the heads of those cute little pussies chasing moving spots of light on the floor, Brian and Liam.
