Fugitive Kathy

Gov. Kathy Hochul used the old “bait and switch” to avoid post-debate questions from the city’s press corps on Wednesday — luring reporters away from a campaign event in Brooklyn and then ducking out a back door.

The sneaky strategy unfolded just hours after Hochul’s first and only face-off with Republican challenger Lee Zeldin, during which the incumbent Democrat stunningly said she couldn’t understand why it’s “so important” to lock up criminals.

In the wake of the controversial remark, Hochul stumped for votes at the RAICES Times Plaza Neighborhood Senior Center, where she individually chatted up about 30 people as they ate lunch in the basement cafeteria.

Hochul then gave a brief speech in which she repeated a frequent talking point about the seizure of 8,000 firearms across the state since January, following her establishment of the Interstate Task Force on Illegal Guns.

Afterward, campaign spokesperson Jen Goodman directed reporters to the building’s lobby for a Q&A session with the Democratic governor. 

But Hochul never appeared and Goodman instead told the crowd she was headed to another event in Manhattan and said anyone who wanted to ask her questions should go there.

Reporters raced out to try to catch Hochul but only managed to spot her black SUV as it drove off.

Goodman later said that a “security threat” led to the cancellation of the Q&A session.

“At the campaign’s stop in Brooklyn, Gov. Hochul met with voters and delivered remarks prior to two protesters entering the facility and disrupting the intended gaggle space,” she said in a written statement afterward.

The Post saw a lone protester enter the lobby and stand silently with a placard urging the governor to sign the “Foreclosure Abuse Prevention Act,” which passed both chambers of the Legislature in May.

The well-dressed man engaged in a brief conversation with the building’s receptionist after the worker approached but no one took any action to get him to leave.

Good for her. Not sure why a politician answering questions is so important to some people.

Now be a good little prole and fill in the circle next to the name with a D after it. Can you handle that you miserable plebe?

Pennsylvania has now all but admitted they are planning to cheat (again): 240,000 unverified ballots were sent out by them. Huh. Such an odd mistake. Now I suppose they'll be gathered up by patriotic citizens (on the payroll) and used as needed. Pennsylvania has also said that it will probably take "several days" to know the winners. Lol! In Ukraine, they had a plebiscite with literal bombs falling around, everybody voted in person, and they had the results next day. But in Pennsylvania, it takes "a few days" and 1.2 million mail-in ballots.

Oh my point? Same thing will happen in New York. There is simply no way Hochul loses this thing. The fix is in. There are zero repercussions for cheating. Who's going to look into it when the entire NYS government is controlled by Democrats? What, you think Biden's DOJ will look into it?? Lol! They'll be helping them cheat.

"Foreclosure Abuse Prevention Act,”

That sound's like something that only a communist would want. More regulation on the job creators. Not for me.

Seems like the usual Q-Anon creeps are making their usual fake excuses just in case their "chosen ones" don't get elected.
Sad ...

More than 3.1 million New York voter registrations are missing crucial personally identifiable information (PII), according to U.S. Reps. Claudia Tenney and Elise Stefanik, both Republicans from New York.

NYC Mayor-in-Name Eric "Dolce Gabbana" Adams and the NYPD has some explaining to do.
Actually Garland's DOJ also.

Election interference:

@leezeldin
can you have your campaign reach out to @NYPDPC & @NYPDnews
and ask why a NYPD Traffic Agent it taking your campaign signs down today. This was sent to me by a member of the Brooklyn community. I believe this to be ocean parkway.

When was that? 1491? That’s so laughable. New York was never civilized. That’s what makes it great. You want civilized, move to Norway.

Even if Zeldin wins, we need to clean out the corrupt Democrats from all levels of government. Zeldin alone cannot correct the wrongs in NYS government.

The trouble is, everyone with a brain knows what's going on, yet very few Dem0Rats are ever held accountable. Sunlight is the best disinfectant the DHS Leaks Superscandal just confirms what we’ve all known for years, especially since Snowden told us.
