January 9, 2025Why Doesn’t Coney Island Have a Huge Martin Luther King Celebration?
Every year, a few days before Martin Luther King Jr. day, some nonprofit organization will announce some small MLK Day event. But why isn’t there a huge celebration in Coney Island?
It’s 10 days before MLK Day and there isn’t one flyer for an event in Coney Island.
NYC gives children the day off from school. Many Brooklynites would like to participate in some kind of service project in honor of the day, but there are only a few small events around Brooklyn. Why aren’t the politicians in this area engaging these families?
Coney Island was left out from the New Year’s Eve Celebration this year – no fireworks, like there used to be years ago. And of course there is no money for a MLK Jr. Day celebration either.
Why do you settle for this Brooklyn?

January 8, 2025Senator Chan was Sworn in Today in Albany
Senator Chan was sworn in today! Brooklyn went to Albany to see Steve being sworn in. (See photos and video here)
Brooklynites are hopeful because Senator Chan has been fighting with the community and isn’t a professional politician.
Senator Chan started the year by opening a temporary office at 6605 Ft. Hamilton Parkway (where the watch repair shop used to be). His number is: 718-333-0311.
After Steve was sworn in, he and some other state representatives called for the resignation of MTA chairman Janno Lieber, the head of the MTA, who pushed for congestion pricing.

January 8, 2025Andrew Gounardes Supports Socialist “Defund the Police Mayoral Candidate – Brad Lander
Bay Ridge, Andrew Gounardes is supporting Brad Lander for mayor NYC. Gounardes’ name is on the host committee list for Lander:
Brad Lander is part of the group of politicians who wanted to defund the police. This is what Lander wrote in 2020:
It’s surprising that Andrew Gounardes is supporting a man who wanted to defund NYC’s police department as this movement hurt NYC.
Also Brad Lander is a socialist.
Like Bill de Blasio, Brad Lander has benefitted from low property taxes in Park Slope for years. Unlike de Blasio, Lander held meetings in NYC about property taxes and told people he was going to help lower property taxes. Lander didn’t do anything to help.
Senator Andrew Gounardes introduced the red light cameras to NYC. When the news revealed that Brad Lander was caught eight times by the red light cameras, Andrew Gounardes was a coward and stayed silent. (See News article)
Even in August 2024, there is talk about Lander and traffic tickets in the paper because Lander said he paid them on time and Matthew Sedacca wrote that he didn’t. (See news article)
During the Summer, Andrew Gounardes and Justin Brannan held a fundraiser for Brad Lander. Why wasn’t Justin Brannan on the welcome committee for Lander this time?

January 7, 2025Andrew Gounardes Spent $844.00 at a Restaurant in Puerto Rico in November
On November 8th, Senator Andrew Gounardes paid $844.86 to Serafina Restaurant in Puerto Rico.
Andrew Gounardes participates in the campaign finance program. Meaning: His campaign money is matched with our tax dollars ($6.00 for every dollar he raised up to $250). (Info)
The campaign finance program was supposed to make it fair for new candidates to compete in a NYC election. I’m not sure why Andrew Gounardes would think taxpayers funds should cover his restaurant bill.
Days earlier on November 5, 2024, Gounardes paid $3,082.00 to The Lockyard in Bay Ridge
The Lockyard is owned by Gounardes’ friend, Kayla Santosusso, who Gounardes endorsed for office. (More info)
Years ago, Andrew Gounardes spoke out about Golden’s spending. Gounardes should be banned from the campaign finance program!
