June 10, 2022Leske’s Bakery in Bay Ridge Has a New Owner

A few weeks ago, Leske’s Bakery at 7612 – 5th Avenue was purchased by a new owner. It was purchased by the owner of Il Fornaretto Bakery from 17th Avenue and 76th Street.
This bakery is no longer making donuts, but the owners will be introducing some new items soon. People are already missing their well-known Boston cream donuts and jelly donuts, but also the lesser known donuts like the bacon donuts with maple glaze.

They are known for their great bread:

And people line up for this bakery during the holidays – see here.
Congratulations to the new owners of Leske’s!

June 9, 2022Nicole Malliotakis Voted for Her Community

VOTE #1: Raise the age from 18 to 21 for to purchase a semi-automatic gun. (See her vote)

The vote was 228 – 199. (Newsweek) Ten Republicans joined the Democrats in raising the age.
Nicole Malliotakis was one of the ten. HOORAY!

If you are a Republican, chill. Malliotakis knows that NYC is in a crime crisis right now and Nicole will do whatever she can to help her community .
Malliotakis’ vote shows that she isn’t playing party politics and can reach across the table to get things done. (Story here)

Protecting Our Kids VOTE #2: Malliotakis voted to ban the bump stock gun attachment. Again, she was one of the thirteen Republicans who didn’t vote with her party because there are too many people in NYC with weapons and she is trying to help. You can see her vote here

And of course the Gun lovers are upset about Malliotakis’ vote because they don’t want to make any concessions. They don’t live in NYC and have no idea how bad crime is here now.


Protecting Our Kids Vote #3: Prevent gun trafficking and straw purchases by establishing new federal offenses. Seven Republicans joined this bill. Nicole Malliotakis was one of them. See her vote here.

Protecting Our Kids Vote #4: Ghost Gun Ban. Won with a vote of 226 to 194.
Nicole Malliotakis was one of eight Republican representatives who voted for this bill. You can see her Yes vote here.
Protecting Our Kids Vote 5: This one was more widely accepted bills by Republicans with a House vote of 380 to 47. A DoJ report will be given to Congress on the ineligibility of people to buy a gun based on the NICS background check system. See the vote here
Nicole Malliotakis wanted to help her community be safer in a time when NYC is experiencing high crime and law enforcement’s hands are tied. She takes her position as our Congresswoman very seriously.
Our community needs to be aware of who is voting with us and who is voting against. A lot of votes are hidden – that’s why I write about them.

June 8, 2022AGAIN. Now Seven Rapes in Bay Ridge in 2022

On Friday, June 3rd, there was another rape reported in Bay Ridge at 10:00 pm. (See street view map)

.
The map has the crime reported at Parry Terrace and 70th Street.
The crime stats for the 68th Precinct for May 30th – June 5th can also be seen here.
The NYPD statistics show that rape is up 200% in the last 28 days in Bay Ridge and a 40% increase in the last year.

To see the maps shown here go to Compstat https://compstat.nypdonline.org Pull down Brooklyn South. Then pull down 68th Precinct in the second pull-down menu.
On two rapes that have happened in Bay Ridge in the past, Brannan wrote on Facebook that these rapes happened years ago……Bay Ridge we know all of these rapes are not from years ago. Every person does not wait years to report.

Brannan does not speak to the community when things happen until way after they have happened, if ever. When the Compstats come out, the politicians shoul address it.
