Statement from County Executive Rob Astorino & Sheriff Chris Moss on Today’s NYPD Protest
Councilman Lancman Misunderstands Public Safety in NYC
A rebuttal to Councilman Rory Lancman’s Daily News article: “How the NYPD distorted ‘broken windows’”
By Joseph R. Concannon
New York City could not have a more polarizing figure sit upon its doorstep than Rev. Al Sharpton coming from a glitzy, gated community in NJ. As “stalker in chief,” Sharpton pours his acid upon the busy streets of NYC and elsewhere in what used to be the safest big city in America. Sharpton’s history of tearing communities apart is now legendary across the nation, as residents are left to pick up the pieces, put out the flames and replenish inventories of stolen goods.
Letter to New York Republican Candidates, Staff and Party Leaders regarding Al Sharpton’s anti-police rally
This is an urgent message from Phil Orenstein, president of the Queens Village Republican Club, to all our gubernatorial, statewide and congressional Republican candidates, Councilmen, campaign staff, Chairman Cox and our GOP Party leadership.
Our number one concern is the safety and security of all New Yorkers. In that regard, I urge you to issue an urgent call for a state of emergency declaration regarding Al Sharpton’s anti-police rally in Staten Island this coming Saturday and insist that the protest be postponed until things calm down.
Ferguson, Missouri, the city under siege, has been exploding in violence that is out of control, and the same perpetrators, rabble rousers and agitators will be on hand in NYC Saturday to stir up trouble. There will likely be violence, rioting and looting in our city.
Cuomo is just an example of a larger symptom of a callous, self-serving class of New York politicians who abuse our political process. Cuomo is another example of an oath taken and an oath broken. Cuomo and others confirm what all voters deeply believe: “we can’t trust a one of them”.

Not long too ago George Pataki, a little-known resident and legislator of upstate New York took over the reins as Governor of the State of New York. He did so unassumingly, without great fanfare and with his integrity fully intact throughout. The Pataki administration brought many years of great progress and pride to New York and maintained our state’s renowned reputation as the powerhouse which is “The Empire State.”
This is a copy of the letter by Queens Village Republican Club member, Frederick Bedell, published in the Post and the Queens Courier, calling for a counter march in support of New York’s Finest.
“Elections have consequences. Voting matters. Let’s spread the message even more powerfully than before to vote, get registered and get involved in the Party of Lincoln. We have a great opportunity to deliver that message for our fellow citizens and bring them to our upcoming “All-Star Candidates Rally” on August 26 at the Knights of Columbus meeting hall, to hear the words of our prophets to save our city, state and nation.”

City Hall “roundtable” with Police Commissioner Bratton,
Mayor de Blasio and Rev. Al Sharpton
New Yorkers enjoyed a delightfully balmy summer with pleasant temperatures hovering around the 70s. But a major storm is brewing in New York thanks to the apathy of the voters who allowed a radical minority of New Yorkers to determine the fate for all of us. Mayor de Blasio, elected by a mere 17% of the city’s voters, recently gave rabble-rouser Rev. Al Sharpton a mouthpiece at City Hall. Now Sharpton is the de facto mayor of the City of New York and threatened to shut down the Verrazano Bridge and New York City. White flags were raised over the Brooklyn Bridge in recognition of our city’s surrender to mayhem and lawlessness.
“This is the start of Cuomogate. As more people are questioned, it will unfold. People are tired of the corruption in Albany. There’s a reason why New York has the highest taxes and the worst business climate. The corruption has to come to an end.”
This outstanding interview with Rob Astorino by Mitchell Langbert, associate professor of business at Brooklyn College was written as an exclusive for The Lincoln Eagle, a popular upstate newspaper written by its readers, that offers an alternative to the narrow-minded elitism of mainstream journalism.

Mr. Robert Astorino’s choice of running mate, Chemung County Sheriff Christopher Moss, reveals much. Sheriff Moss is president of the New York State Sheriffs’ Association, and he is a vocal critic of the SAFE Act. He will be the first African American statewide GOP candidate.

Displaced Christians wait for humanitarian aid
at a church in Hamdaniya, Iraq
In a recent editorial the New York Post bring much needed attention to “Iraq’s abandoned Christians” asking the question: “Does innocent human life matter in the Middle East if it is Christian?”
Since Israel has been defending itself from deadly Hamas rockets and terrorist tunnels, we have heard nothing but worldwide condemnation. But when it comes to the ethnic cleansing of the historical Christian community in Iraq and the “conversion or death” ultimatum to all Christians living in the newly declared caliphate, the Islamic State of Iraq, the world is silent.
