In probably our last big news story of 2014, we're happy to report that Staten Island Rep. Michael Grimm, after earlier saying there was no reason to step down after admitting to felony tax evasion had a sit down with John Boehner, Republican party chief weasel, who told Grimm otherwise. So goodbye Mr."This is a witch hunt" Grimm, you've helped redefine 'witch hunt' as something that turns up a 20 count federal indictment. Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya.
A crooked elected official, the worst kind of American citizen.

Staten Island congressman behaves like a thug
We know conservatives have been big into using the word "thug" anymore. Like Richard Sherman of the Seattle Seahawks said earlier this week after he was called a thug time and time again for his NFC Championship post-game rant, it's becoming a fast and easy backdoor way to refer to someone as a nigger without saying nigger (Here at the Jersey City Desk we're not afraid of using certain words in an adult discussion because it's the context of words not their definition that should upset people).
So what is a thug or thuggish behavior? Let's try Staten Island Congressman Michael Grimm who went off on a NY1 reporter last night after President Obama (and he's been called a thug as well yet exhibits NONE of the definition) threatening him with physical violence and a certain death if he followed up on his promise to throw reporter Mike Scotto over the Capitol balcony. Scotto merely asked Grimm about an ongoing federal investigation into his fundraising in 2010. Grimm got in Scotto's face and said he'd break him in half and said Scotto wasn't a man.
Now THAT is pretty thuggish behavior if that was all there is. The New Yorker Magazine tells us there is more to this behavior. When Grimm was an FBI agent he waved his gun around a Staten Island nightclub after a confrontation and is accused of saying "all the white people could leave" the club while he looked around. Waving a gun at a nighclub and possibly making racial comments? Sorry, in today's vernacular that rises to thug behavior rather easily.
So it would seem Staten Island employs a thug congressman who thinks he does people a favor by letting them talk to him. We'd remind Staten Island you needn't put up with a this come election day. Let's make 2014 the year SI becomes thug-free!
