Someone was busy lashing out at all of his enemies on Twitter. As usual, they’re all Democrats. He derides the party apparatus as a “country club” that you have to “pay to get in” with “cash or your independence.”

This is another way of saying that party politics is hard work and takes lots of moving parts to run. In the unlikely event that those parts are moving somewhat in sync, things still go wrong. The party committee and rank & file members overwhelmingly support Poloncarz and Zellner. And Hochul. And Hardwick, whom Nate denigrates as a “Trumper”.

Nate should tell all of the hard-working people who do genuinely tough jobs in the private and public sectors that they’re just paid-for lackeys who have no independence. If ECDC is a “country club” it’s a pretty easy one to get into, and it has the charm and appeal of an Arby’s.

Ask literally any Democrat who does work for the party and its candidates if they’re proud of the work they did for McMurray. Then ask them if they’re still on speaking terms with him.

So many people did so much for him and if they’re not in the Cult of Nate, they’re garbage to him. They’re sellouts. They’re bought-and-paid-for. They’re part of a “gravy train.” Did Nate lash out at you and call you names, or accuse you of having worked against him? We want to hear your story.

Make no mistake. It’s not that this guy hates the gravy train – it’s that he burned too many bridges to benefit from it and now he wants to fashion his own gravy train from scratch.

I see he’s at least gotten a bit more accurate about how long Poloncarz has been in office as CE. I wonder where he gets his information that Mark “hates his job”. That’s just insane levels of gaslighting. I guess it’s easy for the former counsel for Delaware North, with which he is still (barely) in litigation, to shit all over the Bills stadium deal, but does he realize that the downtown Seneca casino has been there since 2007? Last time I checked, it would have been opened under Joel Giambra’s tenure. But, as usual, Nate doesn’t know what he’s talking about even as to the details – the Seneca deal was negotiated by Governor Pataki and the County exercises no control or authority over any of it.

I’ve been to London and there’s no stadium downtown. I hardly think LA is a place for Buffalo to emulate any more than it already has. I mean, pick an example that backs up your argument!

Nate – you are in for a fun time as you go around to all the committeepeople whom you’ve insulted and denigrated. Have a great time!

FEMA pressures staff to rat out colleagues who have criticized Trump anonymously: report



A number of Federal Emergency Management Agency staff that openly criticized President Donald Trump are under intense investigation from FEMA leadership, and under threats of termination should they refuse to reveal the names of their colleagues who criticized Trump anonymously, Bloomberg reported Thursday.

Nearly 200 FEMA employees signed onto a letter in August pushing back against the Trump administration’s cuts to FEMA, warning that the cuts could jeopardize the agency’s ability to adequately respond to disasters.

More than a dozen FEMA employees – all of whom signed onto the letter – were soon placed on leave. Now, remaining staff that had signed onto the letter using their name are being investigated by agency leadership, being threatened to reveal the names of their colleagues who signed the letter anonymously, according to insiders who spoke with Bloomberg and documents reviewed by the outlet.

“The interviews with FEMA workers have been carried out by the agency's division that investigates employee misconduct, and those interviewed have been told they risk being fired for failure to cooperate,” Bloomberg writes in its report. “The employees have been instructed not to bring counsel, according to people familiar with the process.”

The revelation that FEMA staff under investigation were being instructed not to bring legal counsel was revealed, in part, by Colette Delawalla, the founder of the nonprofit organization Stand Up for Science, the same organization that helped FEMA staff publish its letter of dissent.

“They are not really given an option not to comply,” Delawalla told Bloomberg. “They don’t have guidance while they’re in there.”

Trump has previously said he wanted to phase out FEMA and “bring it down to the state level,” with the agency struggling to respond to emergencies such as the deadly Texas flood in July following new Trump administration policies that led to funding lapses for the agency.

A previous batch of FEMA employees – 140 of them – were placed on leave back in July for signing onto a different letter of dissent, which itself followed a number of FEMA employees being forcibly reassigned to work for Immigrations Customs and Enforcement amid Trump’s mass deportation push.

Critics have characterized the FEMA purges as a blatant violation of the Whistleblower Protection Act, which provides clear protections for government employees from retaliation for disclosing information that is a “specific danger to public health or safety.”
