Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis was having a good time at the Republican National Convention.

When Kid Rock was singing, Congresswoman Malliotakis was singing along and looked like she was texting.

I checked X (formerly Twitter) and Malliotakis shared this photo of Kid Rock:

Woman Groped on 70th Street and 16th Avenue

Last night around 9:00 pm, a woman was groped on 70th Street and 16th Avenue.

I think most people appreciate knowing what is going on, so they are more alert while they are walking around.

Journalist Called Out Andrew Gounardes and Brannan For Playing Politics On Social Media

If you are wondering why things don’t get done in Bay Ridge, it’s because elected officials are playing on social media and not taking care of important issues (ex. PS 185’s Afterschool Program was defunded. (Info Here)

Finally, a journalist called out our Bay Ridge politicians for going after their political foes:

There was a lot of chaos in Brooklyn yesterday near the location for the new homeless shelter planned for 86th Street in Gravesend, Brooklyn. The developers started working at 5:00 am and when the Councilwoman Susan Zhuang saw there were no permits, she went to the location to protest the work. Things got heated between the people and police.

Neither Senator Andrew Gounardes or Justin Brannan attended the rally. Yet, Andrew Gounardes spent yesterday playing on social media like a 15-year-old teen. He wrote the statement below to stick it to another politician because his friend (a woman from Queens lost to the current councilwoman)….so hateful!

Neither Gounardes or Brannan represents that area, so why would they need to make a statement? The politicians should have worked on restoring funding the afterschool programs in Bay Ridge! (Info Here)

People are catching on to Gounardes’ unprofessional use of social media

Today, the same journalist shared this photo saying that Justin Brannan handed these teeth to a reporter for Spectrum News at a press conference today:

Bay Ridge, remember our community was only told one sentence from Community Board 10 about the homeless shelter in Bay Ridge.

Andrew Gounardes and Justin Brannan failed to communicate with the community about the homeless shelter and the City of Yes.

A few times a month, Andrew Gounardes sends out an email with photos of himself, but he isn’t sharing important information like the difference between a legal marijuana dispensary and the illegal ones we have been seen for two years!

Andrew Gounardes attended the City of Yes meeting at St. Anselm and he didn’t stand up and share any information with the community. Brannan didn’t even attend!

We need to elect people who want to help our community, communicate with us and not be people who who hate other politicians in adjacent districts.

Why Didn’t Senator Iwen Chu Share The Photo of This Man to Her District? Ft. Hamilton Parkway

This man sexually assaulted a teen at Fort Hamilton Parkway station in June. Why didn’t Iwen Chu tell the community?

The 68th Precinct also did not share this information with the community.

Why has this taken the police so long to share? Senator Chu should be finding out that as well.

Councilwoman Susan Zhuang Was Arrested Outside 86th Street Shelter Location

Yesterday morning, Councilwoman Susan Zhuang was arrested outside 2501 – 86th Street, the homeless shelter location. Zhuang has been fighting for her community at this location for a long time.

Construction work started at the 86th Street shelter location at 5:00 am. Susan Zhuang told the police that the developers do not have permits. The police said they had the mayor’s permission.

Councilwoman Zhuang shared this video:

See this video of the community and police with the barriers:

When I first saw the picture, I didn’t believe it was the councilwoman. The police took Zhuang away in handcuffs.

Then I saw the Daily News story and they wrote Susan was expected to be charged with assault. Update: The Brooklyn Paper wrote that Zhuang was charged with assault in the second and third degrees, resisting arrest, and obstructing government administration.  See article: https://www.brooklynpaper.com/zhuang-arrested-protest-gravesend-shelter/

The newspapers didn’t explain how the biting happened. And that’s important because Susan Zhuang likes the NYPD, so she wouldn’t purposely bite a police officer.

Bill Colton shared this:

Councilwoman Susan Zhuang has always been for her community.

When these developers attempted to start construction on Chinese New Year, Councilwoman Zhuang was alerted. Susan left her family on the holiday and went to handle the situation at the shelter location. That’s a woman who is dedicated to her community.

When Susan was released, she went back to 86th Street because she knew the people spent the day protesting and waiting for her!

PS 185’s Afterschool Program Was Cut – Parents Will Be Forced to Pay $3,300 for Afterschool

The afterschool program at PS 185 in Bay Ridge was free last year.

This year, parents will be forced to pay $3,300 for their child to attend the afterschool program.

You may be thinking to yourself: Well $3,300.00 isn’t bad for afterschool all year.

For some families, $3,300.00 is too high because they are just making ends meet, so their child will be going home to an empty apartment.

If a family has two children, the afterschool cost is $6,600.00

In February, Kathy Hochul announced that she was adding $17.7 million dollars more to the New Streamlined LEAPS Initiative for afterschool programs, which had $100,000,000. (Info)

How did families at PS 185 get left out of that 117 million dollars?

When that money didn’t come through, why didn’t Senator Andrew Gounardes stand up for this community?

Senator Gounardes didn’t communicate with our community and tell us that this school’s afterschool program was cut.

How many other schools in Bay Ridge lost their afterschool program?

Why didn’t Councilman Justin Brannan mention the change to PS 185’s afterschool program?

In other areas, NYC Council members went and got the money to fund their afterschool programs, like Council member Joann Ariola did:

Afterschool programs for children are essential because most parents are working and need childcare. Parents may have chosen this school because it had a free afterschool program.

Our community should not be paying high property taxes when afterschool programs in our area were cut and many families are being forced to pay for afterschool, while in other areas throughout the state, these programs remain free.

We have elected leaders who should be working to support this school and the families in our community!
