As part of the double header Joe Connor a frequent guest on Fox News will talk about his book , Shattered Lives

January 24, 1975, six young businessmen were enjoying lunch in lower Manhattan’s historic Fraunces Tavern when a bomb placed inside the restaurant exploded, tearing through the building. It had been planted by a group claiming support for Puerto Rican independence known as the “FALN,” the most active domestic terrorist organization in American history. Among those businessmen were two sons of immigrants and only children – Frank Connor, with a wife and two young boys, and Alex Berger, whose wife was six months pregnant. Both were murdered, along with two other men, while dozens were injured, many horrifically.

Shattered Lives, co-authored by Jeff Ingber and Joe Connor, Frank Connor’s son, chronicles the origins of the Puerto Rican independence movement, its transformation into a Cuban-led Marxist cause, the FALN’s decade-long reign of murder and destruction that was a precursor to future domestic terrorism, the hunt for the terrorists directed by a group of dedicated FBI agents, the inexplicable escape from prison by the FALN’s chief bomb-maker who eventually received asylum in Cuba, and the political maneuvering that led to Presidents Clinton and Obama granting clemency to FALN members.

In Liberty & Honor, Sab Skenderi For Bergen County Surrogate

Sab Skenderi For Surrogate, Bergen County ,
I would like to take this opportunity to let Ridgewood residents know who I am as a candidate running for the primary elections as a Republican. 
   
As a person who espouses liberty and the ideals of our constitution, it is important to support like minded individuals. Running for surrogate entails safeguarding minors and those who need their wealth protected by appointing someone to administer on their behalf. It is a constitutional office and one that carries much responsibility. To all Republicans please keep me in mind in column 2 when voting in the June 7th primary elections.—In Liberty & Honor, Sab Skenderi For Surrogate
