Either His Excellency Mayor Steve Fulop forgot Johnny's $2500 a plate fundraiser invitation for Fulop's 2017 re-election campaign, or more likely it's just lost in the mail.
Yep, former President Bill Clinton will be in Jersey City December 3rd at Liberty House. Unlike former Mayor Healy who supported President Obama from the get go, Fulop was a Hillary man. The Fulop invitation reportedly says that even if you can't attend you can still write Fulop a $10,000 check.
Yeah, right. If the Mayor can't be bothered to send Johnny an invitation to see The Big Dog (and Johnny HAS met with former President Clinton back in his Ypsilanti days) there's no way in hell he can expect a check just because he needs money. Fulop has a lot more to do and a lot more to prove before he can just expect donations to come pouring in. For instance not flip-flopping on borrowing money for city retirement costs would be a good start.

Big Brother is watching in Hoboken, and the Hoboken City Council is OK with that
The Hoboken City Council asked for, and received permission to install "Red Light Running Automated Enforcement pilot program" cameras for stoplights at 14th Street and Willow Avenue. These are the kinds of cameras that take pictures of motorists who might be skating through red or yellow lights and issue citations through the mail.
Now the Hoboken City Council has said no decisions have been made as to install the cameras. They'll need to discuss if they really want to spy on drivers. Guess what, they're going to do this. If they were going to do it for safety reasons, they'd have said YES instantly. If the TRUE idea was for safety, they'd have made this a done deal right now. If it was REALLY about safety they'd have made significant changes to the intersection by now. No, citizens, the REAL reason this would be done is money. Cold hard ticket money. Imagine the power to raise revenue by doing nothing. That's what this is really all about. Cash in the coffers.
Wait and see, they'll pass this and they'll say it's all about safety, and they'll be lying through their teeth.
And uh, Mayor Healy and the Jersey City Council, don't get any ideas or we'll rain holy hell down upon you. Big Brother, at least to most thinking people, is a BAD idea.
