With regard to @CurtisSliwa, I have tried to be kind. But today’s video interview of Curtis convinces me he doesn’t care about NYC as much as I thought.

So, today, I start releasing my opposition research on Sliwa. As he attacks @andrewcuomo—who, to be sure, is not my favorite person in the world—I cannot sit back to let Sliwa hypocritically throw stones in a glass house! 👇👇👇

Let me be clear about my motive here:

We need to unify to defeat @ZohranKMamdani. I have said it a million times since July. I meant it.

Why now?

I have held back on Sliwa. For a host of reasons. But Mamdani undoubtedly has all this👇research and much, much more. People forget the years’ worth of stupidity. There’s a lot. And, if Mamdani and Sliwa were in a 1-on-1 (as Sliwa is foolishly urging), Mamdani certainly has (and would release) the information below—and a whole bunch more, including information about local R leaders’ candid views on Curtis. Those are not hard to find.

Act 1. A sampling of the really-easy-to-find stuff. 👇👇👇

For all the Curtis supporters likely to attack me, understand I am still trying to be gentle. I don’t enjoy this. But I am putting NYC first.

GA is a shell organization, according to his former friend.

“Shortly after the founding of the Guardian Angels … the group essentially ceased to exist except for media events,” said Ronald Kuby, a defense attorney and former host of “Curtis and Kuby,” a news analysis show done alongside Sliwa .”

Racial slurs and tropes.

Personal side note: the ONLY reason Curtis Sliwa knows who shot him on 7/19/92 is because we (EDNY) indicted Joey D’Angelo, and he ended up cooperating with the government and disclosing the details of the murder attempt. They were only trying to injure him, not murder him. He gilds the lily every time he tells the story.
