On the record --- Republican-Conservative endorsed candidate Karim Elsammak identifies with a very public criminal act

Candidate's imagery irresponsibly suggests "voters" take the law into their own hands to strike down "bail reform"

Here's the proof in words and picture from Kid Karim's campaign Meta-FB page  ---  "Karim4NY"  --- 

"Karim4NY

0SMarchm 28 at 87911:09m6c 3AMd45 ...

We will push to restore order, and we will save lives in doing so. #repealbailreform #brooklyn #nyc #bayridge #karim4ny

...."

...."

It should be obvious to any responsible adult that identifying with the perpetrator in the momentous and notorious image of a public figure, like Will Smith, illegally striking another public figure, like Chris Rock, is not the way to communicate any kind of "law and order" message.....

However, Karim Elsammak has already proven that he cannot express and/or present himself as a mature adult.

This is just a very recent and topical example of his lack of depth and his immaturity.

Something isn't adding up --- how is it that GOP & Conservative Party State Senate candidate Karim Elsammak says that he's an airline pilot --- and everybody believes it

 

The man on the left is Jerry Kassar & the very young man on the right is Karim Elsammak.....    We know why Kassar never said that he was an airline pilot.....   What we don't know is why Elsammak says that he is.....

The man on the left is Marty Golden  ---  the man on the right is Vito Bruno & Karim Elsammak is the beardless young fellow being pressed between them.....    We know why Golden never said that he was an airline pilot  ---  and we have a pretty good idea why Vito Bruno never did either.....   Yet again, what we don't know is why Elsammak says that he is.....

Here are some of the few facts that we do know:

Karim says that he graduated from Dyker "High School" in 2009 (except that "Dyker" is an intermediate school ["IS 201, Dyker Heights Intermediate School"].....

In passing, Karim has also mentioned that he graduated from a technical high school  ---  and presumably that was in 2013.....

Now here's the kicker, and where it gets sticky  ---  in order to become an "U.S. airline pilot," Karim Elsammak would have had to complete the following between 2013 and 2021:

1. Earn an FAA-approved bachelor's degree

2. Obtain a private pilot license

3. Acquire an instrument rating

4. Obtain a commercial pilot license

5. Get a flight instructor certificate

6. Obtain a multi-engine rating

7. Gain experience and flight hours [the total flight hours required by the FAA is 1,500]

8. Earn an airline transport pilot certification [An airline transport pilot (ATP) certification is the highest licensing the FAA issues. To earn this certification, pilots need more than the minimum requirement of 1,500 hours of flight experience. Pilots must also have specific flight hours logged, including pilot in command (PIC), nighttime flying and cross country PIC]

9. Interview for a position as an airline pilot with a U.S. airline

10. Be accepted for training and complete internal requirements of each airline

11. Complete all FAA, DHS, and other departmental security requirements

[[[ Note: several of the categories above also required periods of intermediate employment, each with their own certification requirements, in the commercial flying business or equivelent additional flight instruction time by an accredited instructional institution ]]]

Now, where and when was all of this done ???

One thing is for sure, Karim Elsammak did not get his pilot training, earn his wings, obtain multi-engine certification, and pile up flight hours in any of the U.S. Armed Forces..... 

For the record --- the Verrazzano Republican Club is now officially pathetic --- and Brian Fox posted the proof

 
Brian Fox has definitively disproved the now false adage  >>>  "There is no such thing as bad publicity".....

Here's how Fox tried to spin things a few hours ago  [on Sunday evening, 3/27/2022]:

"It was great seeing everyone at the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Bay Ridge! It was an honor to march on behalf of the Verrazzano Republicans. Thank you Curtis Sliwa for marching with the club and having your continued support!"

One picture is worth a thousand words.....  And this photo shouts  "PATHETIC !!!" a thousand times over:

Since this is "for the record"  ---  what the pic shows is just six folks and a pooch at the Bay Ridge St. Patrick's Parade  [only two of them are Verrazzano Republicans  ---  Brian Fox and one of the "Mikeys"].....  Most of the marchers behind the Verrazzano Republicans' banner are not in the Brooklyn GOP; they are Curtis Sliwa's Guardian Angels, making an appearance at the parade for their own purposes.

Fox absolutely doesn't get visuals and/or messaging one bit.....  By posting this photograph, Brian Fox couldn't have hurt his club,  and/or the Brooklyn GOP any more than if he posted  one of the pix of his screwing the pooch at the end of the parade.

A recent slice of Brian Fox shows that he doesn't know his left from his right ---especially when it come to the homeless problem and what to do about homeless people being all over the place

 

In video after video, the announced GOP and Conservative Party City Council candidate for City Council against Justin Brannan  >>>  BRIAN FOX <<<  can't seem to solve a technical problem that causes his image to appear reversed.  ---   However,  it does provide a good symbolic and physical example that on most matters which Fox talks about politically  >>>  he does not know his left from his right.....

No exception to that is Fox's recent video discussion about the homeless problem  ---  Fox's suggestions about what to do about that problem ---  and what to do to and/or about the homeless people themselves

As usual, and just like Democrat VP Kamala Harris, Brian Fox didn't read-up on the issues before starting to talk about them in a slow and simplistic way on camera for the rest of us to see and hear

What his latest video really does show is that, with just a little tinkering, Brian Fox will make a great local Progressive-Leftist capo for "The Squad" 

Brian Fox's recent video about the homeless problem is posted on his Brian Fox for City Council Meta-FB page.  It is like one of the many recently videoed Kamala Harris word salads, but without the slyly circular syllogisms or nifty repetitious tautologies  ---  and none of her charmful and endearing giggles.....

But, enough of what we think and have to say about it, let's see what Brian Fox has to say about it himself:  

"Brian Fox for City Council...  March 24 at 1:31 PM  (and all this crap is from the so-called Conservative-Republican candidate  ---  Brian Fox)...   It's time to elect someone that will roll up their sleeves and fight for funds to be allocated into addressing [the homeless] issue....  Real action is needed. Allocating funds towards vocational programs will not only help our local economy but will offer jobs to those that are homeless, looking for an opportunity to get back on their feet....  Furthermore, we need to focus on the existing vacant units citywide to provide proper housing...."  

However, at the end of his written statement about his video about the homeless and the homeless problem, Fox finally got this part right  >>>  "THIS SIMPLY IS NOT THE PROPER SOLUTION"  

Really, these are Brian Fox's solutions to the problem   >>>  VOCATIONAL TRAINING  <<<  and  >>> FILLING  2200 EMPTY HOUSING UNITS WITH THE CITY'S 100,000+  HOMELESS <<<  [BTW  ---  THERE ALREADY IS A PROGRAM TO MOVE  SOME OF THE ALMOST 50,000 HOMELESS IN SHELTERS AND EXPENSIVE HOTELS INTO THOSE "VACANT" UNITS  ---  OH, BUT THEY MUST COMPETE FOR THOSE SAME "VACANT" UNITS WITH NYCHA TENANTS BEING MOVED FROM UNFIT APARTMENTS UNDER COURT ORDERS]

About 14 minutes on Google would have gotten all that info for Brian before he started using his pie hole for other than eating pie, and doing it in a video format.

Cleanup on aisle three --- if Joe Biden didn't misspeak yesterday, then we have a real problem that needs fixing badly.....

Biden's remarks about "responding in kind" if Russia used WMD in Ukraine is definitely a step closer to the USA going up to the threshold of global thermonuclear war with Russia

If there is one thing that it's President Biden's job not to do  >>>  it is not to do that.....

This has been widely reported across the MSM spectrum, including Fox News.....  

According to a typical such report from MSNBC (in an opinion piece by Zeeshan Aleem)  ---  "...  After weeks of clearly stating that the U.S. would avoid any kind of military intervention in Ukraine, President Joe Biden shifted to a more aggressive posture toward Russia on Thursday. Speaking at NATO headquarters in Brussels, he told reporters that if Russian President Vladimir Putin were to use chemical weapons in Ukraine, NATO would respond in some form, without specifying how....  At the news conference, ABC News’ Cecilia Vega asked Biden, 'If chemical weapons were used in Ukraine, would that trigger a military response from NATO?'...  Biden replied:  'It would trigger a response in kind, whether or not, you’re asking whether NATO would cross — we’d make that decision at the time.'...  Biden's response marked a pivot from his usual position of ruling out the possibility of a direct confrontation between NATO and Russia except in self-defense. Now he’s signaling that if Russia uses chemical weapons against Ukraine, which is not in NATO, it would cross some kind of line that could, theoretically, prompt a military response from NATO...."

Make no mistake, do to treaty obligations,  with the force of law up to the level of the U.S. Constitution, "NATO" means the exact same thing as the United States of America.....

In the face of Russian aggression in Ukraine (not a member of NATO, and a former integral part of Soviet and Czarist Russian),  our U.S. President keeps mumbling, stumbling,  and tumbling all of us toward war with Russia over events in Ukraine.....

Bad news travels slowly sometimes..... And sometimes very, very bad news travels very, very slowly

There was a Monday Night meeting of the Verrazzano Republicans  ---  it was at the Schnitzel Haus  ---  that was five days ago.....

It seems that it wasn't a very good show, or a very good showing.....

Here're the first bits of evidence  ---  these pix don't even show "the usual suspects"  ---  very mysterious  ---  it almost seems like the plot of a Britbox mystery !!!

By our count  ---   "...  and then there were nine"                                                                       ---  Agatha Christie

                                                                                        

This show won't nearly run as long as Agatha Christie's play "The Mousetrap" did in the West End.....

However,  that was a classic; and this monkey business is anything but.....

So far, there is only one GOP candidate running for the NYS Senate from the 22nd District that has given the voters a complete autobiography --- and his name is Vito LaBella

Vito LaBella has been a neighborhood guy his whole life  ---  now, he says that he wants to run for the NYS Senate against Andrew Gounardes

Vito LaBella has a solid record of public service and activism in his community of Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights that goes back many, many years prior to his becoming a candidate

He is a retired NYPD Lieutenant ---  and a well-known local education advocate

Vito LaBella was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York; he went to Xaverian HS in Bay Ridge, then went to Creighton University berore he joined the NYPD, and he is now a retired NYPD lieutenant, and lives on Ridge Boulevard, in Bay Ridge Brooklyn.

Mr. LaBella is married and the proud father of two sons and a daughter, all being educated in the NYC Public School System. Vito has taken an active role in his children’s public school education: he works for the Christa McAuliffe Intermediate School (IS 187) PTO, Inc., in Dyker Heights; he has twice been elected to the local Community Education Council; and Vito was also the co-founder of PLACE NYC, which is an organization that advocates for accelerated education, and for NYC Department of Education accountability and transparency.

Vito LaBella expects to use all of his life experiences with the NYPD, and as a local and city-wide education advocate. in the New York State Senate as the Senator in Brooklyn’s newly-drawn 22nd State Senate District.

Not very long ago, here's what "The Queen of the Click" had to say about Vito:

"... Breaking News…..Vito LaBella is considering running for the NY Senate Seat against Andrew Gounardes.... La Bella said... that he wants to build on the work he has done. As a former NYPD Police Lieutenant, LaBella would support... getting this city back on track. Bringing sanity and safety back to the streets and subways is a good start!... Vito LaBella is going to have a lot of support because he has been a man, who has worked to improve education in Brooklyn for many years.... Andrew Gounardes was silent as NY Democrats carved out a new voting district for Gounardes. Although he rallied against gerrymandering for years, a super gerrymandered district was formed to increase the number of Democratic voters to help him maintain the seat. Gounardes doesn’t represent the people of this district and just cares about securing a job for himself. VOTE HIM OUT!... Sadly, Gounardes ran on a platform of street safety, but has not done anything to make streets safer in NY. When a child was hurt or died, Gounardes put a message on social media about how heartbroken he was, but failed to do anything to change the streets. Gounardes was silent as his friends made Brooklyn streets less safe and broke the law repeately...." 

Let's be a little "Nit-Picky" for a moment to show what a quick learner this kid Karim Elsammak really is in becoming a "politician" --- and not very different from Brian Fox

 

Not so very long ago, Karim the kid posted this: 

"Karim4NY...  March 10 at 12:21 PM...  Weekly crime stats for the city alone. Not including the rest of the state. Violent crime continues to rise largely due to the constant release of career criminals due to the disastrous #bailreform. Human life needs to be preserved before anything else. I will post crime stats weekly and summarize them monthly for you all to see. Numbers don’t lie!..." [with CompStat figures for the period covering 2/28/2022 through 3/6/2022]

That was posted by Kid Karim well more than a week ago, with data published a week before that.....  

Just a few days later, Karim the kid posted this:  

"Karim4NY... March 14 at 9:38 PM... Our weekly crime stats per the NYPD. #karim4ny #RepealBailReform...." [with CompStat figures for the period covering 3/7/2022 through 3/13/2022]  

Meanwhile, we await anything that even resembles a monthly summary, much less any informed analysis of these bare CompStat statistics.  In fact, so far  >>>  the kid's only personal input vis a vis these CompStat numbers published by the NYPD <<<  has been some yellow highlighting that prabably was done using Karim Elsammak's Crayola crayons.

Nonetheless, we can say with certainty that nothing contained in any of the CompStat figures copied and posted by Kid Karim establishes, or even suggests that  ---  "....  Violent crime continues to rise largely due to the constant release of career criminals due to the disastrous #bailreform...." That bit of idle chatter and immature thinking isn't even something that is fresh and new to the neophyte candidate for the state senate. It is nothing but some pablum puke regurgitation of the Brooklyn GOP and Conservative Party talking points that already had been worn to a frazzle by Brian Fox in his 2021 run for the NYC Council against Justin Brannan.

As for any real, informed, and/or mature analysis of the CompStat data --- it's likely that we'll have to wait for that a very long time.....

So, when it comes to doing what he says he's going to do, it really looks like this "new face" candidate, Karim Elsammak, has learned from that jaded "old face" politician, Brian Fox, that tomorrow, or right away, or every week means  >>>  sometime other than that  ---  possibly "any day, now, any day"  ---  or  ---  whenever the hell I get around to it  ---  maybe sooner, maybe later, or maybe never !!!!!

REALITY CHECK: To all the jingoes beating the war drums to join in the fight of the Ukrainians against their Russian invaders.....

 

Before we throw down in a nuclear confrontation with what almost all in the media want us to believe is an isolated mad man, who is losing his influence every day.....

Let's review who might really be LOSING ITS/ THEIR INFLUENCE every day

We have engaged in economic warfare against Russia as part of our reponse to their invasion of  Ukraine.  We have been told how much immediate hardship that has caused to Russia.

Much less reported is how much immediate hardship that has caused to US  (as in both "us,"  ie., "the people" and the "USA" as a nation).....

The POTUS calls much of it "The Putin gas hikes" or "The Putin caused inflation" ---  but what it really seems to be is what almost everybody refers to as the "little pain, which the American people must suffer" for their support of freedom in the Ukraine.....

The problem is that our economic warfare against Russia is just a skirmish in the much bigger undeclared Ecomomic World War being waged against America by China  ---  a war that China has been winning  ---  and is now about to escalate with a major quantum jump involving concepts like "petro-dollars" and "petro-dollar financing," and "the world-wide reserve currency".....

The biggest international geopolitical, security and economic news yesterday was reported like this:

"Saudi Arabia Considers Accepting Yuan Instead of Dollars for Chinese Oil Sales ---  Talks between Riyadh and Beijing have accelerated as the Saudi unhappiness grows with Washington"    --- Wall Street Journal & 

                                                      Fox Business News

"Yuan Jumps After Report on Saudis Weighing Its Use in Oil Deals"    --- Bloomberg News

"India reportedly explores yuan in oil trade with Russia...  ---  Reported move highlights growing frustration over US sanctions"      --- Global Times

It was just a few days ago, that the Wall Street Journal said this:  

"The U.S. is sitting on top of a horizontal empire, capitalism’s self-organizing, incentive-based structure with its layers of value. It’s not the Marxist mush of “to each according to his needs.” You gotta earn your spot. Think of the U.S. dollar as the thread or even the duct tape that binds the layers together. Nearly 60% of the $12.8 trillion in world-wide currency reserves are dollars. Is America’s “exorbitant privilege”—the almighty dollar as the world’s leading reserve currency—under threat? Should you even care?...   Sanctions have bitten Russia. A huge chunk of its $630 billion in foreign reserves are frozen. Oligarchs’ yachts have been seized. Visa, Mastercard and American Express suspended service in Russia. Apple and Google Pay stoppage stranded cashless travelers on Moscow’s metro. From Netflix to Nike, voluntary sanctions are in force....  Was cutting Russia out of the global financial system the right move? Naysayers think this is the beginning of the end of the dollar as the reserve currency because Russia will cozy up to China and adopt the yuan or pivot to cryptocurrencies. China may start dumping dollars. In fact, since 2014 China and Russia have severely reduced their dependence on the dollar for bilateral trade...."  ("Is the Dollar in Danger?  ---  China and Russia may be working to take away America’s ‘exorbitant privilege.’ "  by Andy Kessler, 3/13/2022,  Opinion/ Inside View   [https://www.wsj.com/articles/is-the-dollar-in-danger-china-russia-ruble-yuan-reserve-currency-foreign-sanctions-11647195545]).

This is Mr. Kessler's conclusion:  "....  Sanctions on Russia won’t endanger the dollar right away, but wars are when transitions occur. America shouldn’t risk its reserve-currency status. Inflation really will run rampant if other countries start dumping dollars. America’s privilege is worth maintaining—easier said than done."  

That is far from a chest-thunping quote.....  It is circumspect and well-grounded in reality. 

NOW, ONE MORE TIME --- WITH FEELING !!! What does this Meta-FB post mean ?????

 

ATTENTION:

We are proud and excited to formally announce that @karimy4ny has been officially endorsed by the Brooklyn Republican Party. Upon hearing this fantastic news, this is what Karim had to say about this major development in his pursuit to be the next New York State Senator of the 22nd district -

“It’s an absolute honor to be endorsed by the Brooklyn Republican Party. I’m glad people believe in the need for a new and fresh generation of politicians. I will make it a top goal of mine to NOT attack a politician based on party but rather their policies and practicality. I will be a leader for ALL New Yorkers and I will provide our city with bipartisan solutions that will be logic based and fair for all.

Thank you to the GOP and its incredible leaders for their confidence in my abilities and my teams vision for the future. I am really looking forward to making my long-awaited announcement tomorrow in Albany at the @nysyrs Winter Conference and 5th annual Rising Stars Reception alongside fellow Brooklyn Young Republican Society executive members and some of the best that the Empire State has to offer. Here’s to a new generation of leadership that our city and state need now more then ever!”

It means that somebody else, this time named "Ted Ghorra," is no longer serious about conservative Republican politics in the 22nd State Senate District in Brooklyn --- it means throwing in the towel before any political infighting has begun in 2022 --- it means the kids have taken over the kindergarten

Ghorra mumbles, bumbles, stumbles, and bungles more than anybody in politics --- this is just the latest example of his artisinal-grade sausage making

A Muslim, Yemeni-background young man, trained as a jet pilot is now at the controls of a big piece of the Brooklyn GOP.....

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG ???

Well, let's start with Karim Elsammak's view of "diversity" --- he likes to point out the differences between Muslims, Christians and Jews as part of his spiel

Did Kings County GOP Chairman Ghorra know that when he endorsed Elsammak as his State Senate Candidate for the 22nd SD ???

Did Ghorra sign-off on Elsammak's "diversity" plank, which starts off the discussion by distinguishing between Muslims, Christians and Jews, each from the others

We said it before, and then we said it again, and we'll keep on sayin' it until we hear an "AMEN !!!" ---

C'mon, man !!!

What does this Meta-FB post mean ???

 

Brooklyn ConservativeParty

MSarfcchp 1l3manm29 asuto 940e:41001 PM7  ·

Chairwoman Vella-Marrone & the Brooklyn Conservative party are thrilled to announce our endorsement of Karim Elsammak for NYS Senate District 22! Karim is an entrepreneur & an international airline pilot & is the fresh face SD22 needs!

It means that somebody is no longer serious about conservative politics in the 22nd State Senate District in Brooklyn --- it means throwing in the towel before any political infighting has begun in 2022 --- it means the kids have taken over the kindergarten

Here is a much better look at Karim Elsammak

In the center with the blue suit and red tie
           
        

                                      

We've said it before, but it certainly bears repeating:

C'mon, man !!!

It's long past time since Brian Fox should have given everybody a true biography --- and told us who he really is --- where he is really from --- and what he has really done during his life

 

Brian Fox wants to run for the NYC Council against Justin Brannan  >>> AGAIN <<<  even though he blew his chance  >>> and OUR chance <<<  to take out Brannan in 2021.....

However, even after his being around for over a year, we still really don't know very much about the real Brian Fox.  That is because almost each and everything that Brian Fox has told us about himself  --- or anything else ---  has been one big lie after another  ---  for each and every moment of that year-plus of public exposure  >>> both as the GOP and Conservative Party candidate in the 43rd Council District in 2021 ---  and since <<<

Fox says:

"Be the best version of yourself, be extraordinary!"  And for him, that means the following.....

... that he: 

"... [l]ives in Brooklyn, New York...  and [is from] East Meadow, New York...."; and 

[according to his own current campaign social media on 3/12/2022] "... Brian Fox is local Bay Ridge resident [sic] and a candidate for the New York City Council in the 43rd CD..." and/or this:  "... Brian Fox is a local #BayRidge resident, Conservative Republican, small business owner and entrepreneur...  Chairman- Verrazano Republicans... Co- Founder- SBCTSSB..."

... and he claims to be [in 21st Century woke talk ---  "identifies as"]: 

"... Italian and Greek..." [Twitter reply, Jul 15, 2021]

Alrighty, then !  Today's enquiry will be about family background and ethnicity  ---  since Brian Fox "claims" or "identifies as"  >>>  half Greek and half Italian 

Here is Brian Fox...

... and here is who Brian Fox said were his mom and dad during the 2021 campaign...

C'mon, man !!!   Do any of the folks pictured above look Greek and/or Italian to you ???

One thing is for sure, Brian Fox's name isn't on any list of great or even notable Greek-Italian-Americans.....   And neither the names "Rundell" nor "Fox" have a particular Greek or Italian ring to them.....
