I am not so lucky that I have time off for attending this council, which I regret a lot. A friend of mine will do so tough. I will reserve my judgement on Healy but for the others, it looks like forced resignation should and will happen. Gosh, this 11% property tax increase we (nearly) all just got, we could get it back very quickly through similar cleaning at all levels !!

For those with smartphones, please remember your recording functions, if you don't do it for you, please do it for us !

Yes, and so while (Mariano, and #4 and others in JC) were stuffing their pockets, they neglected the citizens of JC, thus only when the outcry for more police and other city services by the tax payers, would they move their asses by then it was kinda too late, then claiming that crime was down.

But lets remember the people who died in this city due to lack of police, the gangs were running amok selling their drugs and they still are on the street corners(white-t- shirts), the kids that became part of those gangs when something could have been done sooner. There wouldn't have been members of those dying or innocents dying or people getting seriously hurt.

I still see prostitutes on Ocean Avenue, Sam Jefferson's ex brother in law is a regular out at night at 3:00 am in a Greenville neighborhood were the drug dealers hang out as well. Why is he there what is he looking for? He's been doing this for years.

Mariano is very tight with some people who are heads of some city depts. in JC

When Solomon Dwek, also known as cooperating witness, was caught depositing $25 million, he made a deal with the FBI to catch elected officials. This means he has a history of coming to Hudson County and bribing our politicans. I would like to know who received money in the past.

I still say either his wife gave him a beating for ruining their family or one of the relatives of the Deputy Mayor smacked him around for letting a 74 year old woman take the fall for him. I hope it was both.

Not looking good.

Dan Levin has just issued a press release asking for Healy to resign. See below statement:

www.onejerseycity.org

"We issued a press release today calling for the resignation of Mayor Healy, Councilman Vega, and Councilwoman Lopez, and for a "punch list" of reforms necessary to restore the public?s confidence in the decisions made by our city government."

"A rally is being planned and we enourage members of the public to attend both the City Council Caucus meeting on Monday and City Council meeting on Wednesday, both meetings at 10am."

Protest city hall if you want, but you dont go to someone's home where their wife and children are and harrass them. For one thing its not the right thing to do, but also, your message is watered down by the fact that you are trespassing as well as causing problems for a quiet neighborhood.

Innocent until proven guilty. He has not been arrested, has cooperated with the investigation etc. Lynch mobs are not necessary.

Anyone see the protest outside Cammarano? s house today on the news? Why aren?t we in Jersey City doing the same thing in front of Healy and the City Council?

I know this is slightly off topic, but Healy looks TERRIBLE. Saw him last night on the news. His face is all busted up with some sort of rash, he has a big bandage on his face, and he's a disheveled mess. He looks like Robert the Bruce's father in Braveheart. Did he fall or something? Or maybe he's super stressed out over this scandal.

The video link on News 4 didn't have the Healy part. I swear I saw it. Can anyone else confirm?

Maybe they ran that on rumors and took that part of the newscast down. I don't want it to appear I'm spreading rumors.

PolitickerNJ.com has confirmed that "JC Official 4" is Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy, the Hudson County Democratic Chairman. A source close to the mayor admitted as much, but held that he had done nothing wrong.

Has anyone seen anything mentioned about where the ten's of thousands of dollars are at this point? Is the $30,000 the informant gave Beldini still in Healy's "campaign fund"? I wonder if there is any way to track that.

lets not forget, the people of jersey city voted these corrupt political figures IN. Even if (we ) did not cast that vote we are still the people of jersey city.

Thanks for your comments. It will be interesting to read the Jersey City Reporter. Ricardo was present.

Yes we should. Unfortunately, there are those that are quick to call whites racist when they question things, as shown earlier in the thread.

If you are referring to my post about that asshat groovejet, read his previous posts in other threads. If you don't think saying he'd like to recreate Kristallnacht (even as joke, which it clearly wasn't) is not racist, then you are a bigger idiot than he is. Oh, and I'm white, born and raised in the South and not Jewish.

He isn't.

He's bought and paid for, just like the rest of them. His ties run deep.

So when some write about the failures of the Republicans, just remember, we have a Democratic Congress that have also allowed it to happen and Obama is no stranger to the financial industry crooks.

They're all in bed.

Presumably JAC meant the paradigmatic shift the party took after Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act and whites defected en masse.
