I had no idea that squirrels did it to keep cool.

August 8, 2022Max Rose Won’t Debate Brittany Ramos deBarros

Brittany Ramos DeBarros and Max Rose are running for Congress in District 11. Brittany wants to debate Rose, but he refuses to debate.
Brannan didn’t debate his opponent in the last election either.

Two debates should be required for candidates running for office, so people can understand the candidates viewpoints.
Brittany wrote on Twitter that NY1 also invited them to debate, but Rose refused:

When Max Rose ran for office the first time, Brittany was one of his supporters. He knows she is a strong, opinionated woman. Brittany speaks well and could win a debate easily. I’m not a socialist and I found her to be very likeable.
If a politician can’t debate, even he doesn’t believe he belong in office over the other candidate. We’ve seen Mathylde Frontus debate several men and each time it showed how strong she was and that each of her opponents shouldn’t have been running for office.
Here’s New Kings Democrats announcing that Rose refuses to debate:

I won’t vote for Max Rose. The boys club consisting of: Brannan, Gounardes and Rose isn’t good for Bay Ridge. We need strong, independent politicians who are able to help the community, so situations like this don’t happen in our community.
It took Max Rose until last week to speak out about Gounardes’ bail reform legislation. (See here)

August 8, 2022Gun Shot Fired on 8th Avenue & Bay Ridge Ave.

The NYPD went to 8th Avenue and Bay Ridge Avenue around 6:30 pm tonight.
I walked on that street hundreds of times as a teen. I can’t imagine someone shooting a gun there.
Someone reported that a man was assaulted and a gun was fired. When the police got to the location, there was no one there. They don’t believe that anyone was shot.

Wendy shared some photos of some catalytic converters that she saw on the street in Bay Ridge. The average catalytic converter ranges between $800 and $1,200, so it’s odd that these are just resting on the street.
They have been reported to the NYPD.
