Andrew Gounardes Didn’t Share the Debate Link – David Yassky Did
David Yassky shared the link to the Zoom debate with Andrew Gounardes. Yassky said that he previously represented 30% of the new district.
Why didn’t Andrew Gounardes share the link to the debate? He must not have wanted Bay Ridge to know. On social media, a few of the people who are close with Gounardes are the only ones talking about the debate.
Andrew Gounardes thought that quietly gerrymandering Bay Ridge was alright. Bay Ridge had been gerrymandered for years by the Republicans, so we were shocked that when Andrew had the chance to do the right thing for Bay Ridge, he didn’t.
The courts had to step in and ruled the congressional maps w3ere unconstitutional. The report specifically mentioned our district.
Now a lot of money will be wasted on having a second election in August. We should have seen Andrew Gounardes calling for fair districts, but he didn’t.
Gounardes represents only 20% of the district and would not be a good leader in this district. Why? This is a waterfront district. Gounardes hasn’t improved our waterfront – the bike path is a mess!
What Andrew didn’t realize in redistricting Brooklyn, is that he would have an opponent. Thankfully, David Yassky is a moderate Democrat and that’s a good thing! He’s represented Brooklyn before and we need to hear more from him!
The video of the debate is not on Schnepps Media Youtube page yet. (That’s here) If I see it, I will share it. If you see it, please share a link!

R Train in the Summer – 95th Street Station
The R train makes its last stop at 95th Street then heads back to Manhattan.
These riders were still sleeping as Ridgites were heading to work. Don’t look at the floor of the train – it will remind you how bad it had to smell.
Money has been set aside by NYC to help people, but those coming to our district aren’t receiving help.

Michael Ragusa Explained Bay Ridge Well on Arthur Aidala’s Show
On July 26th, Michael Ragusa, who announced that he will be running the Bay Ridge City Council seat was on the Arthur Aidala talk show.
Ragusa said he was never a politician and he worked with all different types of people. He said people are concerned with inflation, crime and taxes.
Michael Ragusa stated that he looked at the Compstats. He read the stats for sex crimes (up 116%) and grand larceny was very high. Bath Beach and Bensonhurst is high in murders and rapes.
I like that Ragusa is a regular person and so motivated!

Vaping Lounge on 3rd Ave Closed – New Place
We saw the Vape Rite Lounge closed on 7322 3rd Avenue.
There was a new bright yellow sign. The sign says: “Coming Soon. Stay Tuned.”
The same sign has been on a storefront on 5th Avenue for many months. It looks like a pineapple – so maybe a juice place?

Dead Man Found in Dyker Heights – 72nd Street
Around 11:30 am, a dead man was found in the driveway at 931 -72nd Street between 10th Avenue and Fort Hamilton Parkway in Dyker Heights. (Story here).
The article states that the deceased man had no signs of trauma.

The security camera shows that another man brought the body to the back of the driveway on a hand truck. (See video) How awful for this man and the person who found him!

The medical examiner has to determine the cause of death. The article doesn’t say if the home owner knew the man.
RIP. Prayers for this man’s family and friends as this news will be shocking and awful for them.
Strangely, a man’s body being dropped off in someone’s driveway has not made it to the news or any politician’s social media pages.
That area is represented by Senator Gounardes, Assemblywoman Mathylde Frontus and Councilman Justin Brannan. Update: Brannan tweeted these song lyrics:
Gounardes continued campaigning like nothing happened in his district:

Brannan Didn’t Sign Affordable Childcare Letter
Today, Councilman Brannan tweeted this:
It’s an odd tweet because Justin Brannan did not sign the letter that the Progressive Caucus sent to Chuck Schumer asking for more federal funding for childcare. (See the letter)
Brannan is a member of the Progressive Caucus, so it’s strange he didn’t sign the letter. Alexa Aviles, who represents Sunset Park and the new District 38, which Bay Ridge will be a part of did sign the letter.
The letter was written on July 11th and shared it online on July 12th.
Why didn’t Councilman Brannan sign the letter for Chuck Schumer to increase childcare?
Councilmember Julie Menin from the Upper East Side introduced childcare bills in NYC, but a date to vote on them has not been set.
