Elizabeth Warren – A political party whose leader was just convicted of defrauding veterans and forced to pay two million dollars in restitution to those veterans really should avoid talking anything about criminals or crime, Trump has a very long history of criminal behavior, he’s a one man crime wave.

Yeah Trump would never do that

Warren is:
* making extreme cuts to medicaid
* making extreme cuts to medicare
* making extreme cuts to TriCare
* removing the ACA, which dropped uninsured non-elderly veterans rates by 40%
* taking away benefits for the 7 percent of the veterans live below poverty level

…oh wait, TRUMP did all those things! Oops. Why doesn’t the draft-dodger support our veterans?

How many times is the same person going to post the same message with slight variations in style and format? Is he the same fool who clicks the thumbs up and down buttons thousands of times? He’s undermining the integrity of this site. He’s obsessing to point of being delusional.

The 65 year old must have been a straight white male so Danny and Jessica don’t care….What ever happened to the investigation of the Filipino man who was punched and died by 69th and Roosevelt?? The NYPD swept it under the rug and said it was “World Cup soccer hooliganism” even thought the Philippines didn’t have a team in the tournament…I bet if it was a gay man Danny would have been on the warpath demanding justice….disgraceful

Jessica Ramos has yet to do something about the increase of crime and violence in Jackson Heights. So far all she has done is go on the attack on the NYPD.

Has anyone heard or seen Jessica Ramos ? . Is she aware about the increase of violence plaguing Jackson Heights ? .
Daniel Dromm gets money for doing nothing – but that’s a different story.

The police should check the areas between 85th and 90th street between 37th avenue and Roosevelt. These scumbags are usually around this area causing trouble in groups.
