Let’s hope Mr. Zeldin can defeat that ugly fish face Hochul. Then he can prosecute that criminal husband of hers.

Lots of speeches, blah blah blah. How about real acts of self-defense and fighting back. Every other”minority” group fights back. And they sure fight back in Israel! Time to stop kvetching and fight the hoodlums!

It’s like talking to the wall. “Certain” ultra Orthodox sects will still vote for Hochul. Mind boggling!
