Proof Bob Capano Has No Clue What’s Going on in Bay Ridge
Bob Capano can make all the claims he wants about being part of Bay Ridge.
But…..HE DOESN’T REALLY LIVE HERE OR KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON.
If he did, we would have seen him releasing cheesy press releases all over the place. Nope – Paula Katinas doesn’t have the story and neither does the Brooklyn Independent Fountainhead. Bensonhurst Bean? Kings Country Politics – Nope.
Capano pretends he knows about Bay Ridge but he is clueless! :P
Someone Capano claims not to like ran for a small office this week (look at the card carefully). HE WOULD HAVE GONE CRAZY WITH PRESS RELEASES IF HE HAD KNOWN! The man is grasps at any little bit of information he can about this woman, but Capano didn’t say a word about her being on the ballot because he didn’t know about it. WHY? Because he isn’t part of bay Ridge.
Again, if Capano knew about her being in the election, he would have wiped the floor with her loss.
Instead, Capano is silent because he hasn’t got a clue what’s going on in Bay Ridge! Shhh blog readers – don’t tell him. He’ll just be late to the party saying anything now. LOL

September 15, 2016Bay Ridge Didn’t Want Mark Treyger or Pam Harris
I went to sleep on Tuesday night and thought, “Could Bay Ridge not have seen how amazing Chris McCreight is? Did they not feel his passion to fight corruption?”
NOOOOO WAY! Voters saw it and voted for McCreight throughout Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights. They recognized that he’s one of the good guys and he won in our areas! Why is that important? Because Treyger issued a press release that 30 people supported him and this election shows that those people don’t have any influence in our community.
Kate Cucco also won in Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights!
The Brooklyn Reporter published this about Cucco winning our area:
Although Harris and Treyger had more voters come out for them in Coney Island and Bath Beach, THEY LOST BOTH BAY RIDGE and DYKER HEIGHTS. The Bay Ridge Democrats and Vinnie Gentile supported McCreight. The new Muslim Democratic Club MDCNY wanted Harris and Democrats for Change social club wanted Harris and Treyger to win. I think support from these clubs was more for their own club members to be supported, rather than for Bay Ridge’s benefit because who the heck wants an Assemblywoman who doesn’t do anything?
Here is the map where you can find the breakdown of the district if you don’t know your section.
I don’t care if you aren’t supposed to talk about the results of an election. I’m talking about them because Treyger wasn’t a gracious winner today. As the new District Leader , Treyger could have reached out and said he was interested in working with McCreight – especially after seeing McCreight won Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights. He couldn’t do that because he doesn’t know how to do the right thing and be a gentleman (or as Lee said – just be a decent person). EVEN MARTY GOLDEN WAS A GRACIOUS WINNER WHEN HE WON.
Bay Ridge saw the truth. More importantly, Bay Ridge is filled with people who want politicians who aren’t corrupt. We live in a gerrymandered district and get the short end of the stick because our neighborhood was divided in half and tossed with other neighborhoods.
The truth is out there, even if Treyger can’t say it or put it in a press release.

September 14, 2016How Did Some Dishonest Politicians Win An Election? FEAR
How could so many people ignore the corrupt politics of Mark Treyger?
FEAR……Fear on Russian radio moved many to vote. Russian radio is the old skool version of social media. This was said to me by a wise young man in the days before the election: “Anyone under 70, would just laugh at what was said on Russian radio, but that’s how they are winning.”
Treyger is a fearful man. He purchased a home in a gated community. He knows how to evoke fear in older people……on Russian radio. We heard Treyger’s fear when he spoke with Cats on the radio.
I would say Harris is corrupt, but she’s just a pawn in their plan. Even if they laid it out right in front of her, she wouldn’t understand it. Didn’t she see that hardly anyone who said they were supporting her barely even spoke about it? Harris is too busy covering her own lies to notice what is going on. Stephen Witt of Kings County Politics has seen this before. Witt wrote the most telling article about Harris AS HER FRIEND. With friends like that, who needs enemies? Harris didn’t even pick up on that!
This election just showed us………Don’t look too close Brooklyn……corruption runs deep in this city.
The only winners in Coney Island last night were the developers and commercial property owners. What happened in Downtown Brooklyn will happen in Coney Island – it’s already begun.
To Chris McCreight – thank you for running. You are a reminder to me that there are good people in the world who want to do the right thing for everyone.

September 12, 2016Mark Treyger – Typical Politician
Maybe Mark Treyger started out as a politician who was going to help people, but if you look at what he’s doing in Coney Island, he shouldn’t be a Councilman.

September 12, 2016Bay Ridge on 9/11/2001
The towers were hit early in the morning. I was at school with my students when it happened. Immediately, parents flooded the school to pick up their children. Within an hour the school was 3/4 empty. As I walked home from school, I started calling my friends who worked in the city. Many people were using their phones, that I couldn’t get a signal.
My best friend worked in the World Trade Center area, but not in the towers. I continued to call her, but I wasn’t able to reach her for several hours. We were friends from high school and rented a house in Borough Park. We were the type of friends who called each other every five minutes, so I knew something was wrong. Four hours after the towers were hit, she walked through the front door. Her business suit was dusty, her shoes were wrecked and she looked like she had been through a fire. She was running late that morning and when she arrived in the city, the first tower had been hit. She turned around to go back on the train and there was no train, so she walked over the bridge and walked home from Manhattan.
After she told me about her ordeal walking home, she showered and asked me to go to Century’s on 86th Street because she ruined her shoes and wouldn’t be able to wear them to work the following day. (Later we found out that there would be no work for anyone the following day). We drove to 86th Street and it looked like a ghost town. Some stores left on their lights, but they were all closed. There was only 3 other people on 86th Street with us. There were no cars racing back and forth on the strip because everyone was home.
We drove across 5th Avenue from 86th to 60th Street and saw no more than 8-10 people. Small deli’s, pizza shops and stores were all closed. People were home with their families.

September 11, 201615 Years – We Won’t Forget
The names of the 373 firefighter heroes who died on 9/11/01.
Fifteen years ago, the man in the video was my student. His father was a fireman who died trying to save people in 9/11. It’s good to see he did well in his own life and he’s out there doing good for others too.
RIP Matt.
