October 1, 2019Grimm is Marko Kepi’s Campaign Chair
Yesterday, Marko Kepi held his announcement rally in a parking lot in Staten Island (See here). It was a beautiful day to have an outside party. Kepi threw his hat into the race for the Assembly seat that Nicole Malliotakis is vacating. Interestingly, former Congressman Michael Grimm is Marko Kepi’s campaign chair.
Shorefront News reported that Kepi had 500 people in attendance at his campaign launch.

Kepi must have been pleased with the turnout, as he shared this video on Twitter:

Rally videos – here and here– show a large party – like an Albanian wedding.
Kepi was very loyal to Marty Golden. Will Golden return the loyalty? This is something to ask because Nicole Malliotakis, Gerard Kassar and Fran are supporting the other guy, Michael Tannousis. Little is kwown about Tannousis, but Kassar worked with Marko in Golden’s office for many years.
Kepi’s website is here. Tannousis announced he was running in the Summer, but still hasn’t put up his website.

October 1, 2019Oh Look Who Got Married….
November 25, 2021 Update: Congratulations – a new baby boy – see here!
Frank and Rachel O’Brien wed this weekend. Their wedding made Page Six News because John Gotti Jr. and Curtis Sliwa both attended the wedding. (The article said Gotti Jr. was charged with the kidnapping and attempted murder of Sliwa back in the 1990’s.)
Let’s link this up to politics in Bay Ridge.
Rachel wrote for the Staten Island Advanced as Rachel Shapiro. During that time, she would print Nicole Malliotakis’ press releases (see here).
Morano is known for his talk radio show and his support for Malliotakis. In 2010, Morano left the Independence Party because the party would not give Nicole Malliotakis a Wilson-Pakula. Moreno was also the Staten Island Chairman of the Reform Party (like Bob Capano was in Brooklyn). Frank has been with Nicole a long time, but he probably doesn’t realize that she doesn’t do much in Bay Ridge.
Malliotakis attended their wedding celebration.
Many of you left comments linking Morano and O’Brien years ago, but I’m not involved in Staten Island politics, so I didn’t know if it was true.
Shapiro stopped working for The Staten Island Advance soon after this

October 1, 2019Mother Cabrini Procession 10/6 – She Built NYC And Deserves a Statue
On October 6, 2019 at 3:00 PM, Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio and the Italian Apostolate of the Diocese of Brooklyn will have a procession and Mass this Sunday to support the construction of a public statue recognizing Mother Cabrini as part of the “She Built NYC” program. Mother Cabrini was denied a spot in the program – see here, here and here.
Ironically, Mother Cabrini received the most votes for a statue, but was denied a place in NYC history because of her religious symbolism. Councilman Justin Brannan supports Mother Cabrini getting a statue. See letter.
The procession begins at 3:00 PM in Mother Cabrini Park at 41 President Street in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. The procession will lead to Sacred Hearts – St. Stephen Church at 125 Summit Street for at Mass at 4 PM.
St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, the Patron Saint of Immigrants, arrived in New York in 1889 with the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart. Mother Cabrini Park is located at the former site of a church building where Mother Cabrini first ministered to the poor immigrants of the Italian community.
Saint Michael’s Church in Sunset Park has a bus if you want to go with them:
