NY GOP calls on Hochul to remove Bragg after soft-on-crime DA let migrant mob walk free despite caught-on-camera cop beating
NY Post ^ | 2/06/24 | Vaughn Golden

New York Republican lawmakers are calling on Gov. Kathy Hochul to remove Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg after several migrants accused of mobbing two NYPD cops in a Times Square attack were set free without bail.

State Senate Minority Leader Rob Ortt and 19 other senators called on the Democrat governor to can Bragg, citing the clash with as the latest in a long line of alleged failures by the lefty DA.

“He is running a public defenders office out of the district attorney’s office,” Ortt told reporters Tuesday.

“Bragg’s unconscionable handling of the recent attack on two NYPD officers by a gang of migrants outside of a Times Square shelter must be the final straw,” the letter, sent Tuesday, said. “The public safety of New Yorkers is clearly at risk.”

A group of migrants were caught on camera attacking two NYPD officers late last month. Several of the individuals involved were apprehended a short time later, and charged with assaulting a police officer, but were released from custody without bail. Several of them have since fled the state to California, sources previously told The Post.

“We are past the time for action,” Suffolk County Republican state Sen. Dean Murray said. “It is time that she remove Alvin Bragg from office. From the moment he took office, he was picking and choosing which laws he would enforce, which criminals he would go after and which ones he wouldn’t.”

New York’s bail laws are widely criticized as being too lenient, but assaulting a police officer is a bail-eligible offense.

The Power has decided that we need another group of victims. Our current parasite class is too stupid to see it. They are too-narrowly focused on Get Whitey.

A NY Supreme Court judge blasted DA Alvin Bragg for his “selective justice” quirks .......throwing the book at some people for non-consequential offenses yet routinely coddling those charged with far more serious crimes.

NY State Supreme Court Justice Brendan T. Lantry wrote in an opinion, Bragg’s office “routinely — nearly daily — move[s] to dismiss significantly more serious counts even entire indictments”
<><>to avoid inflicting harsher penalties for previously convicted felons
<><>to avoid jeopardizing people’s immigration status

Justice Brendan T. Lantry added “These motions submitted [by Bragg and his prosecutors] are made months or even years after the 45-day period has expired to dismiss . . . including crimes against the public order and crimes against persons.......sexual assaults, drug sales, robbery, burglary, and other violent and non-violent serious felony offenses.” (courtesy NYPost)

City Council Minority Leader Joseph Borelli (R-Staten Island) cheered the judge, saying: “This is what Alvin Bragg is — a clown,” Borelli told The NY Post. “I’m glad the judge called him out for the world to see.”

Bragg is notorious for letting a violent mob go scot-free after seeing them savagely beat up cops on tape.

Since taking office in 2022, Bragg.....who boasts about being “a son of Harlem on the DA’s web site...... has come under frequent attack for not seeking prison time for various charges and downgrading felony charges in a slew of cases, including armed robbery and drug offenses.

The ghetto-nurtured Bragg showed he’s not up to the job when he set free a mob of savage migrants caught on tape beating up cops in Times Square.

Trying to evade justice, w/ Bragg’s blessing, some of the cowardly savages have reportedly skipped town using tax financed transportation.....or maybe a handout from Bragg’s tax financed budget?

Oh, good luck with that.

Hochul recently announced NYS is looking at closing 5 more prisons.

After recently closing 6.

And our legislature is totally cool with that.

Alvin Bragg made a deal with the devil... now he’s as evil as his benefactor George Soros.

Yep, she will never remove him. Like the Nazis, it’s party first above all else. They’ll throw the Jan. 6th stolen election protestors in jail for years for pushing over a police barricade, but criminal foreign invaders can kick in a cops head and they get released.

I love it! But let me guess: They’ll never show it on TV.

The more heinous the offense, the more impactful and demoralizing it is when the perpetrator is released without consequences. That’s the whole idea.

The destruction and fall of America is so swift, one has to know it is planned by enemy leaders within America’s government and multinational companies.

I mean, the NYGOP could not be more tone deaf.

The press release should have said,

"Bragger is guilty of the greater crime: he endorsed a beatdown of the Blue not just to increase his own 'street cred' with his brand of Gotham thugs, but to demonstrate exactly how this Soros lawlessness works -- 'we release you without bail, so take the hint and run for the other coast' -- where you will be out of reach of the law, because bench warrants don't matter there, either."

My prayer for you is that as you go about your day you will be more charitable and less intolerant! Your post only fans the flames of racism. It wasn’t helpful or insightful. It was mean and fueled by hatred.
This website is for everyone. That means Blacks will read your harsh comments that were uncalled for. Don’t be part of the problem, be a part of the solution!

Why pack more in?

"NY GOP calls on Hochul to remove Bragg."

“The ghetto-nurtured Bragg showed he’s not up to the job..”

He’s up to the job he’s paid for by Soros. America’s destruction. The job we pay him for is not even second place.

Nice post——I just couldn’t resist when my editorial gene kicked in.

“Bragger boasts he’s a “son of Harlem,” so he’s a bit slow on the uptake, and biased against cops. He is guilty of the greater crime: he sap-happily endorsed the migrant beatdown of the Blue, not just to increase his own ‘street creds’ with his merry little mob of Venezuelan thugs, but to demonstrate exactly how Soros lawlessness works.

It’s a cinch: ‘we release you without bail, so take the hint and run for the other coast’ where you will be out of reach of the law, because (ha ha) bench warrants don’t matter there, either, and here’s a few bucks from the DA’s budget to get you started.”

The ghetto-nurtured creep IS definitely up to the job Soros paid him for.


I stand thoroughly corrected.
