After Beating Restler Is Lopez Blackmailing Silver to Save His Power Next?

Can Lopez Blackmail Silver Because He Has the Goods On Him On Real Estate Deals Like This One?  What About the Pfizer Deal?  Is Bloomberg Silence on Lopez Connected to the Eminent Domain No Bid Deal He Made With Lopez on the Pfizer Site?

Loft Law Has Silver, Lopez Under Further Scrutiny(NY1) The relationship between Assemblyman Vito Lopez and State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver has come under the microscope since Lopez was accused of sexual harassment, and Silver was accused of protecting him. But NY1 has learned that a 2-year-old tenant protection law sponsored by the two Democrats is now the subject of a lawsuit which critics say offers new evidence of collusion between the two powerful lawmakers.  The primary sponsor of the retroactive law allowing them to stay was Assemblyman Vito Lopez, who is now embroiled in a sexual harassment scandal. One of the co-sponsors of the bill was Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, who is now accused of protecting Lopez by keeping a taxpayer-funded financial settlement to two female accusers secret. * Vito Lopez Moves To Take Pfizer's Brooklyn Site By Eminent Domain * Four ways Vito Lopez reshaped New York | The New York World * Pfizer latest giant company to milk city for lucrative tax breaks - New ... * A Fight Grows In Brooklyn: Pfizer & Eminent Domain // Pharmalot




Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver’s children moved away — but still vote in dad’s elections(NYP)Did he really need the extra votes?  Three of powerful Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver’s adult children remained registered to vote in their father’s Lower East Side district long after moving out, The Post has learned.


Nothing Has Change In Albany Sexual Harassment Ways In Decades, Still the Bear Mountain Pac Rules

Silver's unspoken history of payoffs(NYP)When Speaker Sheldon Silver authorized $103,000 be paid to the alleged sexual-harassment victims of Assemblyman Vito Lopez, his office said the secret payout was the only one of its kind. It wasn’t.

 In 1992 a young Assembly aide claimed she was harassed by her boss. Three years later Speaker Silver arranged for a quiet $85,000 payment to make it go away. At the center of the scandal was Charmian Neary, a petite, blond assistant who worked for Manhattan Democratic Assemblyman Mark Alan Siegel from January to July 1990.* Ex-Assemblyman Accused of Sexual Harassment - New York Times(1992) * The Big Apple: Bear Mountain Compact (Tappan Zee Bridge Rule)

"Albany is hardly the only place where men—and women—have trouble understanding sexual harassment. But the capital has an acute problem because, despite some progress, it remains a male bastion that has yet to overcome its antiquated legacies.  There’s a Brigadoon quality to the state capital—without the charm. It’s hasn’t quite entered the last third of the century. Indeed, not so long ago the professional woman was a rarity in Albany. Many legislators thought of women as pleasurable distractions, part-time companions during their time away from home and family."

NYP Bags an Assemblywoman and An Assist on A State Senator

Sunday Update Fall housecleaning(NYP Ed)That’s two down — but a whole heck of a lot more to go. Sleazy Albany legislators exposed — deposed? — by The Post, that is. State Sen. Shirley Huntley (D-Queens) and Assemblywoman Naomi Rivera (D-Bronx) — one under indictment, the other under multiple investigations — were both given the hook by voters in Thursday’s Democratic primaries. And it wasn’t even close. A third scandal-scarred pol, Assemblyman William Boyland (D-Brooklyn), survived — but only because he faced a multi-candidate opposition. Boyland himself could only muster 37% of the vote.


 Believe It Or Not the NYP Follow In the Footsteps of John Peter Zenger When They Exposed the Corruption of Naomi Rivera

" The Post is proud of the role it has played in all this. Ultimately, it’s up to prosecutors to spring the trap on corrupt politicians. But the voters showed last week that — once fully informed by journalistic enterprise — they’re ready to shut those politicians down. * John Peter Zenger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia * The trial of John Peter Zenger * The Trial of John Peter Zenger [ushistory.org]
