Politics Backyard Block Party!

35 Upvotes

Amazing time yesterday at my annual Block Party Fundraiser! It was so uplifting to see many new and familiar faces as we push forward to Election Day, fighting for the Clarkstown we deserve. Thank you to special guest Cait Conley, to Senator Shelley Mayer for joining us, and to the more than 85 people who attended the event and the many more who have donated to support my race. As I knock on doors, attend events, and speak with residents, there is one central theme everyone speaks to — people are eager for leadership change that will make Clarkstown better.

In the same plaza as Wendy’s in Nanuet they are filming something. I tired to find any news about it but I couldn’t find anything. Any guesses?

Edit: there are also a bunch of people just sitting in front of the advanced audiology in the same plaza.

Politics 🚨 MORONI’S LAWYER WANTS MY PAGE SCRUBBED. READ WHAT THEY TRIED TO DELETE.

Thumbnail

92 Upvotes

🚨 MORONI'S LAWYERClarkstown — eleven days ago, I posted the Town's own numbers, filed a sworn ethics complaint, and asked the Rockland County District Attorney to open an investigation. Six days later, Deputy Supervisor Al Moroni's lawyer sent me the letter attached below: delete everything within 24 hours, and publish a "retraction."

Here is my answer, in writing, attached. And here it is for every resident of this town:

NOTHING GETS DELETED. NOTHING GETS RETRACTED. I stand behind every word.

Because none of what follows is my claim. It is what the Rockland County Business Journal has reported — from the contractor's own invoices and Mr. Moroni's own text message — and what the Town's own Accounts Payable records document:

• In 2024, a contractor replaced the A/C at the Deputy Supervisor's home for roughly $5,600 (materials only, the labor free) on a job that typically runs $12,000 to $13,000, per the invoices the contractor shared with the Journal. The contractor believed the discounted work "could help him score a contract with the town."

• Last week, the Journal published Moroni's own text message about that job, in his own words: "gave me $5,000, versus $8,500!!" — with a thank-you by name to two town officials, "kudos to you, Mike and Garabet," and "a dinner on me" for the three of them.

• The following year, that contractor was awarded a $99,000 town contract, renewed in 2026 for four years. And between August 2024 and July 2026, the Town paid his company $1,022,802.07 across 139 invoices (information straight from the Town's own Accounts Payable records).

If that is what it appears to be, it may be corruption. Whether it is or isn't is not for his lawyer to decide, and not for me to decide. It is for investigators with subpoena power, which is exactly why the ethics complaint and the DA request were filed, and exactly why they stay filed.

⚠️ And to Mr. Moroni: if you want to sue me over the Town's own records — bring it. A LAWSUIT DOESN'T SILENCE ME; it hands me subpoena power of my own. I will DEPOSE you, under oath, about the discount, the text messages, the contract, and every one of those 139 invoices — on a public docket, where every resident of Clarkstown can read the transcript. New York's anti-SLAPP law makes officials who sue their critics without a basis pay their critics' legal fees. Ask your lawyer what discovery means before you ask a court to protect you from your own paper trail.

Clarkstown: this is your town and your money, and you get to demand better. Here is what you can do today:

👉 SHARE this post — they demanded it be deleted; make sure every neighbor reads it first.

👉 SHOW UP at the next Town Board meeting and ask one question: why is he now in charge of the very department that oversees this contractor's work? (Per the Journal, he was named Interim Director of Engineering & Facilities Management.)

👉 SPEAK UP — demand the Board suspend him pending an outside investigation, and release the findings publicly. The town cannot investigate itself.

A public official's answer to documented questions should be answers — not a lawyer's letter demanding a critic's silence. Nothing gets deleted. Nothing gets retracted. And Clarkstown gets the truth, wherever it leads.

Discussion How many lies that Mike Lawler pack in one flier?

22 Upvotes

[1] Lawler quotes himself as an endorsement. He’s hoping you’re not smart enough to catch that.

[2] Fact: Lohud has NEVER ranked Lawler. Again, Lawler is taking someone’s quote in the paper and attributing the quote to the paper. 

[3] Trump has officially endorsed and signed into law the temporary raise in (SALT) cap. The mad king gave Lawler his “complete and total endorsement" 

[4] Even though the salt cap didn’t help 92% of constituents, Lawler is averaging it to include all constituents and saying he saved $4k for each person.  Pure unadulterated BS.

[5] FACT: VoteHub nonpartisan analyzes showed Lawler achieved a perfect score in voting for Trump majority. VoteView and CAPA found the same.  You can factcheck yourself on congress(dot)gov

[6] Lawler calls himself bipartisan FACT: Every Democrat in the House of Representatives voted against the One Big Beautiful bill.

[7] Here's Google says about Lalwer's $80 mil. “ No, Congressman Mike Lawler did not deliver a lump sum of $80 million … The "$80 Million" Figure: References close to this number in the region typically reflect …total historical pools across the Hudson Valley rather than .. bill delivered exclusively by Lawler. “  -

Politics Its Embarrassing that Mike Lawler has to Hire a Third Party to Canvas for Him

62 Upvotes

So a canvaser knocked on my door just now. He asked if I support Mike Lawler. I turned it and asked him is Lawler is the type of guy that he supports. To my surprise he said he isnt from New York and is getting paid to do this. I felt bad, but understand that you gotta do what you gotta do to get by in this economy.

Turns out that no one wants to volunteer for Lawler so he is forced to hire out of town third parties. At least hire from Rockland if your going to astroturf. I was a bit embarrassed, but remembered that it is weasel Mike Lawler that enables the pedophile grifter in the white house, and has voted to cut safety nets here in Rockland.

Who do you guys use to fix your riding mowers? My craftsmen threw a drive belt, and whilr i put on a new belt, i noticed some of the pulleys seized. I have the replacement pulleys, just need someone to finish it up. Just had a kid, work is insane. I would normally try to finish it myself but i just dont have time.

I live on a street where the county has recently torn up the road and laid down gravel with the anticipation, I thought, of paving it. It’s been three weeks and they have yet to finish it. The road is nothing but gravel and it’s damaging to cars and my dog’s paws.

Is there anyone I can contact to inquire/ complain about the road finally getting paved properly?
