November 19, 2024Justin Brannan Fear Mongering & Fundraiser

Thank God for term limits on NYC Council members! Now Brannan is on his way fear mongering everyone on his friend’s list over Trump. If Brannan became Comptroller, REBNY would be happy.


The NYC Comptroaller should have a math finance background – not be a guy “winging it.” Brannan sees Brad Lander does not have a finance background and is able to play on social media all day.
Brannan may think he is doing a good job, but this community is tired of the nonsense rhetoric. Look at the mess Brannan made at Angel Guardian Home (three schools on one block). (Info here) Branna is also doing the same on Ovington Avenue (a new high school on a block with three existing schools. (Info)

When you visit Brannan’s website, you can understand why politicians aren’t working for residents.

While Justin Brannan was head of the Finance Committee, we saw he didn’t do a good job. Schools received money and then some were defunded and teachers had to be transferred to other schools. (See here and here)
Justin Brannan was involved in (this mess) too. We are all tired of lobbyists winning in Bay Ridge!

If Freedom News did not report this, we wouldn’t know because no other news has reported it. What caused this man to be so angry that he shot his gun?
I’ve been writing about crime in Bay Ridge for many years. Sometimes after I write about an incident, the perp will respond with details about the incident in the comments.

November 18, 2024Walgreens on 95th Street – Freezers Are Empty

You asked me what was going on with Walgreens freezers. I asked the staff and they said it was just low stock. Nothing was wrong with their freezers, but they are almost empty.

Anthony shared that even the Ivory soap is locked up. So maybe that is why the freezers are not being stocked?

November 17, 2024Fireworks Started Fire on Benson Ave.

Fireworks were being set off on Benson Avenue between Bay 29th and Bay Parkway early this morning. (Firefighters extinguishing the fire)

The remains of the fireworks landed on the garbage, which started a fire that burned the tree and a car.

Imagine walking out to your car and seeing it burnt like this. :(

This is why many people don’t like fireworks in Brooklyn!
