January 9, 2021AOC Goes After Nicole Malliotakis
One of your first votes in Congress was to amplify a known lie about our nation’s free elections that incited a riot that killed a Capitol Police officer.
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) January 9, 2021
There’s no crawling back from that with a hashtag. You brought shame to our delegation and the district you represent. https://t.co/pHAp4A6A0S
A Capitol Police Officer lost his life over the Capitol Coup. (See here)
Very few people seemed to care that happened. Max Rose did – see here.
AOC used it to wack Malliotakis. We knew this would happen sometime, but we didn’t think it would happen so soon. (See here)

January 9, 2021Gounardes Tweets About Anti-Semitism, But Was Silent Against Hate This Summer
We were surprised to see Andrew Gounardes tweet about anti-Semitism today (see here) because he refused to speak out against it this Summer!
Residents sent links to the video above and Gounardes remained was silent. He did not release a press release or even a statement on social media.
This Summer a group of Palestinians changed “Death to Israel. Death to America” See video here.
Although many people asked Gounardes to speak out against the hate in Bay Ridge.
Many believed Andrew didn’t want to upset the Palestinian community before the election.

The Democrats and Socialists held a rally against Nicole Malliotakis today outside her Brooklyn office at 7716 3rd Avenue.
Brooklyn is not going to stay silent. Huge turnout at the protest of Nicole Malliotakis’ assault in democracy. Glad to have joined so many elected officials and concerned & angry Brooklynites to say silence is complicity. pic.twitter.com/gKALeCSXsF

Malliotakis didn’t certify the electoral college votes. She, along with 146 other Republican Congress members objected to the election results AFTER the Capitol attack.(See story)
Shame on Nicole in #bayridge today for enabling and encouraging the assault on the capitol earlier in the week #shameonnicole pic.twitter.com/RXgcrkEmoV

Go here and let Nicole know how you feel. Or you can let the Bay Ridge Democrats petition here.
Spent some of my afternoon with our neighbors in #BayRidge demanding our awful Congresswoman (Nicole Malliotakis, who fomented fascist violence by supporting dangerous conspiracy theories) either resigns, impeaches the Trump or supports invoking the 25th amendment. pic.twitter.com/36qrRTdpNF

The election is over. The courts ruled. Trump lost – Biden won. Move on!

Trump is a celebrity and doesn’t know what a ousted politician should do. A celebrity creates drama and invites the press.

Upset over the loss, Trump isn’t able to do the right thing. He should leave the White House or be asked to leave so that no other nonsense goes on. The government isn’t a reality game show.
It’s strange that this rally was held when Malliotakis’ office is closed.

Chris McCreight, the leader of the Bay Ridge Democrats should know better to hold a rally when Malliotakis’ office is open. The hours are posted on the door.
Assemblywoman Mathylde Frontus was authentic in what she said. Frontus is a classy woman. She said, “Nicole is a nice lady.” But she questioned Nicole’s actions and asked: “What is going on Nicole?”
Most surprising was seeing Nicole Malliotakis’ friend, State Senator Diane Savino in Bay Ridge speaking out against Malliotakis.
Very strong language from @dianesavino, outlining how what @NMalliotakis @RepMalliotakis failed to do: tell her supporters the truth.

Politics is ugly. A lot of the people who spoke against Malliotakis, didn’t speak against Andrew Gounardes not doing his job correctly. Andrew Gounardes took money from a developer and asked Justin Brannan to speak for him at landmarking meetings. Brannan wasn’t the Councilman for that area, so he shouldn’t have been asked to speak! (If you don’t know what I am talking about, see here).
A proud Republican came to the rally to express himself.

Glad to see the 68th Precinct kept the peace.
Other Republicans called for the Bay Ridge Democrats to stop playing politics and for their leaders to help the small businesses in the area.
More calls for Chris McCreight to step down! See here
Brannan is a City Councilman. When there are millions of words in the English language, why does he choose to use street slang to speak? Does he think these people relate to that? Speak like a man and not a 16 year old kid!

Radiofree Bay Ridge enjoys this type of drama. We don’t – it’s annoying for us to see our community not fighting against ALL political leaders who are doing the wrong thing.
Nice to see my #BayRidge neighbors turn out to tell @NMalliotakis to GTFO pic.twitter.com/3xOqR6frVW

The Citizen App captured the rally! See here

January 8, 2021Mark Szuszkiwicz Was at the Capitol to Support Trump
Mark Szuszkiwicz recently ran in the NY Assembly election to upseat Mathylde Frontus.
Democrats in Bay Ridge are going crazy on social media because Szuszkiwicz was seen in photos at the Capitol yesterday.
When I saw Szuszkiwicz in pictures from the StopTheSteal Rally, I asked him if he intended to overtake the Capitol.
I never saw Szuszkiwicz sporting a bandana, so I wasn’t sure if that was what people wore to a “revolution.”
Mark Szuszkiwicz replied that he attended the Washington rally to support the president. He didn’t like my question about the bandana because apparently he wears it regularly.
Okay. People have the right to rally.
From the pictures, it looks like it is a social event for him. (See here – and scroll right on the photo).
He looks very happy to be close to the Trump (see the caption he wrote on the picture above). Now you and I probably wouldn’t feel like that, but he’s political and this is what he likes.
Mark said he did not enter the Capitol building.
We didn’t see any photos where he was acting inappropriately.
Some of the people, who attended the rally intended to overtake the Capitol. This woman looks nice, but then she bragged about wanting to break the windows. Who does that?!
“We’re going to be breaking those windows” pic.twitter.com/8PGMxEBktU
— Dr Mike Galsworthy (@mikegalsworthy) January 9, 2021
Then she shared a picture of a broken window:
Trump shouldn’t have called people to Washington. He should have known better, but Trump is a celebrity and he doesn’t know what a ousted president needs to do.
