Speaker 1 Now you wrote a on this weekend, you wrote after piece and I read it on your Facebook and you’re very, very angry on what’s going on, especially how the Hispanic community has been treated in New York State, which to tell our audience a little bit about it, well, the Hispanic community.

Speaker 2 Has always been used and abused by the Democratic Party. We have been the stepping stone for everybody else. When the Black community needed a mayor, the Hispanic Committee were there when the why needed a mayo or sorry something.

We have been there. But now when the Hispanic community needed the support of the Black community and the support of the Democratic elector officia, they turned it back on us. And that happened in the during the nomination of Judge Hector last AYI they qualify they were prefer well educated with that sperience was nominated to be the the the

the chief of the pr division and undressed to a causing marginality, and the they Sentael practically the Democrats and mostly the black they rejected, uh this Hispanic poor of weekend Judge were qualified and then and then to add uh more pain, they now letter supported and nominated judge rowand Wilson, a guy that has a record of free

of of something free woman violators, woman violetors in one in one in one hand and they’re so a cousin say that she’s a woman defender. On the other hand, she support and nominated George the practically release someone that entered into a private house rape a woman. They gave him twelve years and Joge Rawn Wilson sending free that’s

to me, it’s anti Puerto Rican. That’s to me, it’s anti Hispanic. Back to me, is racism all discrimination.

Speaker 1 And it is very do A lot of senior people are not really involved in the in Albany right now and in in the city, and the Hispanic population in New York is the highest ever, how do you figure that out?

Speaker 2 We are moving on, we were we are growing and not only that, not only we’re growing, John, I mean we are moving a Hispanic are learning how to vote republic They Hispanic are abandoning leaded by me as the Democratic Party. They’re fed up. And you could check the statistics.

You could check the last boil resort. I mean, the Hispanic are learning how to jump ship and vote Republicans and the Democrat with all the things that they’re doing to us, they don’t change, they’re going to lose the Hispanic community.

Speaker 1 Well, like I said, happy Birthday this weekend. I hope today is the beginning of a change for any new up states. And I’m there with your standing side by side. The w b ABC is there with your standing side by side to make sure that the Latino and Hispanic community get their fair share. I’ll join you.
