Trenton NJ, A statement from the New Jersey State Police in response to the recent Fox News story called “Conference featuring 2020 Dems begins with fiery chant quoting fugitive cop-killer Assata Shakur”
Ridgewood even hosted a group that promoted cop killer Joanne Chesimard.
“It is an affront to every man and woman who wears the badge that someone would choose to evoke the words of a convicted cop killer and fugitive from justice at a political conference. The men and women of the New Jersey State Police will never forget the sacrifice made by Trooper Werner Foerster on May 2, 1973 nor will we forget that the person convicted of his murder remains a fugitive for nearly 40 years. We will remain steadfast, both in the pursuit of Joanne Chesimard and in the preservation of the memory of Trooper Werner Foerster, Badge #2608.”
“Gone but never forgotten.”

TRENTON NJ, New Jerseyans are inundated with taxes, some of which are among the highest in the country, and now they could be taxed based on how much it rains. Republicans blasted Democrats for considering the proposal (S1073 : Authorizes municipalities, counties, and certain authorities to establish stormwater utilities) at an Assembly session Thursday.
Assemblyman Christopher DePhillips was strongly opposed to raising taxes on people based on the weather. He also took issue with how financially irresponsible the bill is, allowing unlimited bonding and ever-more debt on the backs of property-tax payers.
“The last thing this state needs is more debt and another runaway tax. Especially one that taxes the weather,” said DePhillips (R-Bergen). “I implore my colleagues on the other side of the aisle: let’s not do this, let’s vote down this bill together, let’s vote no and consider financially responsible alternatives to this legislation.”

PARAMUS NJ, In the wake of the indictment of high-density developer Fred Daibes, the Paramus Republican team of Jeanne Weber for Mayor, Jorge Quintana and Mohammed Reda for Council call on Mayor Labarbiera and the Paramus Democrats to return any and all donations from Mr. Daibes.
When all else fails, play the race card.
Call anyone who disagrees with you a bigot or a homophobe or anti women
That’s all the democrats have in their bag of tricks and it was exposed during the kavenaugh hearings
They have no ideas and simply ar the anti-everything tent for single issue voters. And if they ever get control they will be socialist like Venezuela and Cuba because they want 100 percent control.
What is REALLY RACIST is that democrats expect and demand every person who is not Caucasian to vote for them….or they are ostracized.
