Trump Supporters Rally in Car Caravan

BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM More than 1,000 supporters of President Donald Trump (R) took to county roads Sept. 20 to participate in a car and truck rally.

The rally started in East Northport at the AMC movie theater parking lot. At 11 a.m., participants started heading east on Route 25.

The caravan then continued on Route 58 to travel through Riverhead and Greenport.

The rally caught the attention of the president who tweeted, “THANK YOU! #MAGA.” In a Sept. 21 Facebook post, the rally organizer

Shawn Farash said he finally had a chance to reflect on the day.

“We were heard, seen, and it resonated,” Farash wrote. “It reached people. Young and old. We did that. We packed out that movie theater lot. We took over the North Fork, and we declared together, the phrase I’ve heard from so many of you over the past few days, that we will be #SILENTNOMORE.” Pictured above, center and below right, participants drive through Smithtown. Upper right, a car decorated with Trump and American flags lines up in East Northoport.

U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps “Docks” in Kings Park

BY PAUL C. WEINGARTEN DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Lt. (junior grade) Peter Mattschull circulates among a group of 30 cadets in Navy whites and black face masks, standing rigid in four rows for inspection. Looking them up and down, he speaks in a controlled voice muffled by a cool September breeze. The replies are loud and clear: “Yes, sir!” echoes repeatedly as cadets acknowledge the directions they are being given on how to improve finer points of their appearance to suit Navy standards.

A neckerchief is not being worn at the correct height; a cap needs to be straightened; a uniform isn’t pressed crisply enough along the seams.

But Mattschull’s stern corrections begin to feel less hard-nosed drill sergeant and more father sending their child off to prom.

Far from the U.S. Naval Military Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, this is an asphalt driveway in front of a home on a tree-lined residential street in Kings Park. And these young men and women are middle and high school students participating in monthly drills for the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps, a Navy-sponsored organization whose goal it is to teach naval operations and training, community service, citizenship, discipline and teamwork.

Until early this year, these monthly drills were held on the grounds of the Northport VA Medical Center, but hospital COVID-19 policy now prevents the cadets’ access. After brainstorming different options, executive officer Mattschull and LTJG Tanya Krien, commanding officer, scrambled for an alternate location, to no avail.

“So, we had to get creative,” Krien said.

Mattschull offered up the only option that held water — opening up his home so the drills could continue.

The monthly weekend drills include a PT — or physical training — component, led this month by retired U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Nelson Reyes, who during his military career did combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. On this particular Saturday morning, Sept. 12, Reyes runs the cadets through a workout consisting of 11 repetitions of nine different exercises in remembrance of 9/11. Moments of silence are observed on two occasions during the morning’s activities.

Aside from drills, the Sea Cadets march in parades and present color guard at memorial events and activities. Cadets also participate in community service efforts, including helping clean up the grounds at the VA hospital and spending time with veterans residing and visiting there.

This Sea Cadets division is named after the USS New York (LPD-21) warship commissioned in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks, the hull of which contains steel salvaged from the World Trade Center. The USS New York Division in Northport is one of four divisions on Long Island, the other three being based in East Moriches, West Sayville and Farmingdale.

Recruits go through a boot camp and have the opportunity to participate in a range of training sessions. In addition to studying naval policies and procedures, hands-on training is an important aspect of the program. One example is firefighter training.

“Every sailor needs to be a firefighter because on a ship there’s nowhere to run,” Mattschull said. “So, we arranged with our local fire department to spend half a day doing

shipboard firefighting.”

Petty Officer 1st Class Joe Rizzo, a senior at Comsewogue High School, has been a Sea Cadet for four years, over which time he has gone through nine training courses, among them sailing, police and aviation. He has also attended the Petty Officer Leadership Academy, where he studied leadership, accountability, responsibility and time-management skills. Being a Sea Cadet is central to his plans after high school.

“I’m hoping to go to the Naval Academy, and I don’t think I’d be able to get there without this program,” he said.

Rizzo can draw inspiration from two prior cadets, one of whom after completing the Sea Cadet training went on to Kings Point U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, the other to SUNY Maritime College in the Bronx.

“But the program isn’t only for cadets who intend to pursue a career in the military,” Krien said, “Our graduates learn skills they can carry forward in life no matter what career paths they choose.”

The Sea Cadet program is operated entirely by volunteers, including Krien and Mattschull.

“My daughter started in middle school,” Krien said, when asked how she got involved, “And as a parent I would watch the volunteers go crazy — there just weren’t enough hands.”

Krien began volunteering and worked her way up to her current position of commanding officer.

“I spent eight years in the Navy and never even heard about this program, it’s the best-kept

secret in the country,” Mattschull said, “I didn’t know it existed until my daughter came home wanting to join.”

When she enrolled, Mattschull was like any other parent taking his child to drills and events.

“But then the staff found out about my military service, and they recruited me. Next thing I knew, I was in,” he said.

On a national level, Sea Cadets receive financial support from the U.S. Navy and the Navy League of the United States. Those funds go primarily toward subsidizing summer sleepaway training programs at virtually no cost to cadets.

However, each division is responsible for local training events and activities, uniforms, award ribbons and other operating expenses. They rely on the minimal enrollment fees charged to cadets, as well as fundraisers and donations from local businesses and community organizations.

Krien and Mattschull believe in the program so much that, although each began volunteering because of their respective children’s involvement, they have both stayed on well after their kids graduated.

Asked what motivates them to continue, Krien answered, as Mattschull nodded in agreement, “Our daughters may have graduated, but we still have 40 other kids here.”

Robert earned his master’s degree in Recreation from Columbia University. He began his professional career working for City Service Oil Company but felt he was called to serve the youth of the five boroughs of New York and joined the Catholic Youth Organization (of the Diocese of Brooklyn, based in Jamaica, Queens) as their athletic director.

After 25 years of serving the CYO, he continued his passion of working with youth through his position at the Hellenic American Neighborhood Action Committee, then as a high school teacher of American history at Delehanty HS in Jamaica and then as an athletic director for the Brooklyn Navy Yard. He retired in 2005 from Wainlands of New York. Throughout his entire 50-year career Robert

was a basketball official with the International Association of Basketball Officials.

Predeceased by his first wife, Ann Marie Malone, Robert leaves behind his six children and their spouses — Bobby (Lori), Mary Ann Lawrence (Tom), Nancy Hunter (Mark), Susanne Walker (Buzz), John (Shirley), and Jimmy (Stacey); as well as his stepdaughter Claudia Ximena Ortegón Gómez and her husband Jorge Enrique Osorio Velez. He is also survived by 21 grandchildren; his step-granddaughter Isabella Lopez Ortegon; 10 great grandchildren, his loving sister Mary Mousseau and many beloved nieces, nephews, and cousins.

As a dad, Robert loved camping, swimming and exploring. He led his family on many adventures. Always looking to be of service to youth, he coached track, soccer, basketball and baseball and was also a guest sports columnist for the Long Island Press. He served as a lectern at Holy Child Jesus and played an active role in the Christian Family Movement. Anyone who knew Robert knew of his love of the arts; museums, plays, and the written word. He was a voracious reader and wrote poetry and lyrics for many songs and was an avid gardener.

What is most memorable about Robert was his love of all music. He was a long-time member of the Al Jolson Society and sang for a period of time with the Marian Male Chorus of Long Island. He loved to learn new thing and took up yoga and tap dancing and learned to play the accordion and tap dance which led to participating in shows at the Huntington Senior Center. He loved collecting and took delight in great “finds” at yard sales. A resident of Centerport for over 30 years, he was an active member of the American Legion, Post 1244 in Greenlawn. He loved marching in parades with his fellow members and visiting children in full uniform teaching them about the values, roles and responsibilities of the armed services.

A funeral Mass was held Sept. 21 at St. Anthony Padua Church in East Northport with internment at Calverton National Cemetery. Flowers and donations in Robert’s memory are welcome.

Please consider the American Legion Greenlawn Post 1244, www.post1244.org or to the American Stroke Association, www.stroke.org.

The above funeral arrangements were entrusted to Nolan Funeral Home in Northport.

Editorial Letters to the Editor Honoring Notorious RBG Two Friends Riding an Elephant It’s difficult to comprehend that women didn’t always have the rights that they have now, and many of those rights were only gained a few short decades ago.

Imagine when women weren’t able to open a bank account, have credit cards or a mortgage without a man’s signature until the passing of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act in 1974. Considering a woman founded our media company in 1976 and still sits in the publisher’s seat, the thought is unfathomable to many of us.

One of the trailblazers who worked for women’s rights to manage their own finances and their own lives was Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She accomplished this feat as the co-founder of the Women’s Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union. The void her death leaves behind is immense. Let us remember all the work that’s been done and is still being fought for true equality. Now with her seat locked in political turmoil, we believe her legacy needs to be respected more than ever.

What we need to remember is sometimes the champion for equal rights, Ginsburg, needed to represent men to work toward the goal of all being treated equally. In 1972, Ginsburg argued in front of the Supreme Court when she and her husband represented Charles Moritz, a bachelor who was unable to take a tax deduction for taking care of his sick mother as a woman or a divorced/widowed man would have been able to do. It was an ingenious tactic, showing how any discrimination on the basis of sex was harmful to the whole, rather than one select group.

Throughout her career, Ginsburg was the champion of many causes that have had a positive effect on both men and women of all colors and orientations. She believed that everyone has a right to vote, to access health care including birth control, to obtain an abortion, and that when two people of the same sex fall in love, they have the right to get married just like everyone else.

Replacing Ginsburg will be no easy task, and it shouldn’t be taken lightly. President Donald Trump (R) said he will nominate a woman to the seat and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R) is eagerly waiting in the wings for the process to begin, despite arguing in 2016 that Supreme Court nominees should not be put to the bench in an election year. He and other Senate Republicans did not even hold a hearing for former President Barack Obama’s (D) court pick Merrick Garland that year. It’s the kind of House Rules situation you would expect more from a shady casino owner than the highest legislature in the land. It’s the kind of political skullduggery that does irrevocable lasting harm to democracy itself.

Locally, vigils held by two separate left-wing groups on Long Island’s North Shore have called for Ginsburg’s replacement to wait until after the election, and we’re inclined to agree. The dangerous precedent the U.S. Senate has engendered goes well beyond politics, but to the heart of democracy itself. There cannot be one rule for one party and another rule for the other, effectively eschewing several basic tenets of the Constitution.

There is a reason Ginsburg held on for so long, much longer than any of us would have stayed in such a stressful and highprofile position despite having five bouts with the cancer that eventually led to her death. One of her last statements dictated before her death was, “My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.”

The American value of equality for all is one that seems to be lost in our divisive times. We must honor Ginsburg’s legacy by remembering this ideal by moving toward the future and not slipping back to the 1950s where it was believed that women were only capable of being, as the saying goes, barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen. If that were true, we would have never experienced people like RBG.

The death of liberal icon Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg should be a point of reflection for people of goodwill, regardless of their political party and who they plan to vote for in November. As I have read the Letters to the Editor over the past several weeks, I am reminded of two of my favorite RBG quotes: “Don’t be distracted by emotions like anger, envy, resentment. These just zap energy and waste time,” and “You can disagree without being disagreeable” — a sentiment she shared with Republican President Ronald Reagan.

Many people may be surprised that Ginsburg was close friends with the late conservative icon Supreme Court Justice Anton Scalia. The Jewish and Roman Catholic Brooklynites socialized outside

the court and also traveled together.

There is a great picture of the two of them riding an elephant in India in 1994. Their friendship reminds us all of the wisdom of Thomas Jefferson who famously wrote to a friend in 1801, “I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.”

Among the most moving tributes to Ginsburg were from Scalia’s sons.

Christopher Scalia said, “I’m very sad to hear about the passing of my parents’ good friend, and my father’s wonderful colleague, Justice Ginsburg. May her memory be a blessing.” Gene Scalia shared, “Today we lost a great jurist, a pioneer, a loving wife and proud mother and grandmother, and a

dear friend to my family. We pray for the justice, her family and a reunion with her beloved husband Marty.”

Shortly before Anton Scalia died, one of his former law clerks visited him and discovered he had bought two dozen roses for Ginsburg’s birthday. “What good have all these roses done for you” he asked.

“Name one 5-4 case of any significance where you got Justice Ginsburg’s vote.”

Scalia reportedly responded, “Some things are more important than votes.”

Rest in peace Justices Scalia and Ginsburg. May the story of your friendship inspire us to tolerate the divergent political views of our friends, family and neighbors.

Dan Kerr Stony Brook

This week, the United States hit a somber milestone when we passed 200,000 deaths due to COVID-19. More than 20% of the world’s coronavirus deaths are U.S. residents, though we are only 4% of the global population. This speaks to our government’s profound failure to respond to this pandemic. Our numbers continue to rise, even as other developed nations have somewhat contained the virus.

In the recently published book, “Rage,” by investigative journalist Bob Woodward, associate editor of The Washington Post, it was revealed in taped interviews with President Donald Trump (R) that the interviewee admitted he was aware that the virus spread through the air and was deadly.

This information was known to Trump in early February, and yet he still was not truthful with the American people. Experts believe that if he had instructed the American people to wear masks, to socially distance, to wash their hands, instead of “playing it

down,” thousands of lives could have been saved. Additionally, Trump’s misleading statements on the virus disappearing in the summer months, touting untested drugs like hydroxychloroquine, and holding crowded indoor unmasked campaign rallies, has sent a message of confusion and misinformation.

This is political malpractice by the president, who is charged with keeping the American people safe. He has completely and utterly failed to do so, and we have paid dearly with American lives.

This past weekend, on the first night of Rosh Hashana, another sad milestone occurred when we lost Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg at the age of 87. She was a trailblazer for millions in this country, as the first Jewish woman to serve on the Supreme Court, and a fierce advocate for equality.

Unsurprisingly, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R) and Trump began to talk about ramming through a replacement for Ginsburg. These two men, who have

so thoroughly failed to protect and deliver for the American people, who have waited months for Congress to provide additional financial assistance for the tens of millions who are struggling during this pandemic, are prioritizing politicizing the judiciary in their favor over helping those they were elected to serve.

If you are outraged by this abandonment of the American people, you must vote in this election. If you want a judiciary that will protect women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, voting rights and union rights, you must vote. You can vote by mail, vote early in one of the 12 locations in Suffolk County, or at your polling place Nov. 3. The future of our democracy depends on all citizens of good conscience voting to remove Trump and his enablers like McConnell and our local Trump cheerleader Congressman Lee Zeldin (R). Our rights and our lives depend on it.

Shoshana Hershkowitz South Setauket

Back in February of this year, I sat in on a phone town hall conducted by U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R). During that phone town hall, he suggested that if people had opinions or suggestions, they contact their government representatives or newspapers.

Well, Congressman Zeldin I have decided to do just that.

We learned the other day that the president has been lying to us for months.

I need not plead my case of trying to prove he is a liar. He’s done it himself on tape and in his own voice. He withheld information that could have saved thousands of

American lives. Honestly, I thought it was because he was incapable of understanding the gravity of this health crisis. Now we find out that it was much more insidious than that. He understood full well the dangers and consciously made the decision not to tell the American people. If you were on an airplane that was about to crash land, wouldn’t you want, and expect, the pilot to direct you to assume a crashlanding position? What is one of the most complained about problems when we lose electricity due to storm or otherwise? The lack of information. How dare he presume

only he knows what’s best for us.

Fox News can spin it all they like and, yes, I took one for the team and turned on the channel at night on Wednesday, Sept. 9.

I watched a few minutes of Laura Ingraham and heard her and her guest, an editor from The Federalist, spew some nonsense about, oh, he is just trying to keep the country calm.

No, he lied to us. Once a liar always a liar.

There is no choice this election year.

Vote for transparency and integrity. Vote for Joe Biden.

Republican Senators Will Vote ‘Yippee’ Regardless of the Candidate

R

epublican senators have abdicated their responsibility for vetting a candidate for the Supreme Court.

President Donald Trump (who is a Republican, as if you didn’t know) could nominate a toothpick, a swimming pool, or a face mask and those objects, appealing though they may be, would become the ninth member of the Supreme Court, replacing the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The process D. None was over before of the above it began.

The

BY DANIEL DUNAIEF president, who is so fond of calling any event that might not proceed in his favor “rigged,” has exactly what he wants: a collection of at least 50 senators willing to rubber stamp the nominee to the Supreme

Court, a lifelong appointment, for myriad reasons, not the least of which is to break a possible contentious election tie if and when the waters are muddy enough in the presidential election.

You have to hand it to them; they know a power grab when they see one, and this is a spectacular opportunity to reshape the court with Trump’s third nominee.

South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham didn’t say that his party agreed to consider the candidate when he spoke to one of the Republicans’ favorite publicists, Fox News’ Sean Hannity.

No, he said, “We’ve got the votes to confirm Justice [Ruth Bader] Ginsburg’s replacement before the election,” according to a report in the New York Post.

That doesn’t preclude the infinitesimally small possibility that one or more of them might actually consider the merits of any candidate Trump, who is, in case you missed it, a Republican, might nominate, but it certainly suggests that the game is over well before it began.

Yes, I’m sure many people are as confident that the Democrats will all vote “no” on the candidate as that the Republicans will vote “yeah, hooray, yippee, we won.”

But that doesn’t make the votes from either party, and, specifically, the votes by each individual senator any more legitimate.

The Republicans have so effectively lined up the members of their party that none of them will question the magnificent incredible choice of the justice-to-be-named later.

They have so much confidence that the choice will be the best possible candidate for the highest judicial appointment in the land that they have no real need to consider the merits of her candidacy.

This has become an all out sprint to fast-track their candidate directly onto that important bench, without even the token consideration for her past decisions, her views on the Constitution, or her thoughts on important legal precedents.

If Republican senators have so much faith in the president’s choice, they should forfeit their salaries, go back home and

allow the president to vote for them on every issue. I suspect the president wouldn’t object to adding such responsibility to his daily routine.

I understand that we live in polarized and divided times. I get that Senators reflect and amplify the differences that are pulling this nation apart. Each of them has an opportunity, no, a responsibility, to consider the job they are supposed to do, and not the party they are expected to support.

I don’t even need a Republican to vote against the president’s candidate to give me hope that someone in that esteemed chamber gets it. I just need a Republican to ask a genuinely difficult question. The hearings will go something like this: Democrat: You’re unqualified and here’s why.

Republican: My Democratic colleague is wrong, offensive and disgraceful (see my last column for the search for grace). You’re the best person to protect the legal interests of every American.

Candidate: Was there a question in there?

A few residents are even taking vacations to destinations mainly within driving distance.

As we wait for vaccines and anti-COVID medicines, we seem to have come to some semblance of equilibrium with the virus. Of course we are greatly helped in this by the low numbers of those falling ill in New York.

That is not to say that we have forgotten the thousands who have died or their families who will suffer the pain of their loss for a lifetime.

Nor do we disregard the many unemployed and the men, women and children on food lines. So many people are holding their breaths with rent coming due and monthly bills to be paid, yet there is no Congressional relief funding in sight.

Churches and community organizations have mobilized to offer food. Local governments have stepped into the breach, and to some extent, offered financial help. The U.S. Small Business Administration and regional banks have also provided low interest financing.

Nonetheless, for some there is true panic. And for many, salaries, hours of work and budgets have been reduced.

Behind the scenes, we at the newspaper and website offices are busy at work. We believe the

latest relevant information we bring to the public and the sense of community that is defined by functioning local media are essential to coping in these unprecedented times.

While our offices continue to be closed to the public, we still maintain our five-day, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. hours. Some of our staff work remotely part or all of the time, and unwillingly we have thinned our ranks. We can be reached by every sort of communication: telephone, email, texting, Facebook and just by knocking on our door. If the purpose for your visit is compelling enough, we will let you in, as long as you are wearing a face mask and that you maintain correct social distancing.

As we support our communities, we offer our resources and help to you, our readers and advertisers. For example, for several months we have run lists of restaurants open for curbside pickup and of other essential businesses open to the public at no charge.

If we can help you with our communications platforms, please just ask us. If it is possible for us to do so, we will.

Even as we struggle to survive, we are committed to serving you.

Glimpses of Life in Our Villages

H

alf a year in, how are things going?

There are signs of normalcy returning.

The world outside the home is slowly coming back to life. I just returned from the first general membership meeting of a local chamber of commerce that was held in person for the first time in six months and not via Zoom.

I must say, it was wonderful to see people whom I routinely work with in three dimension. We all Between felt like hugging, you and me but we didn’t. We stayed apart and

BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF we were outside, under a three-sided tent. By having the fourth side open, the meeting qualified as “outside.”

So we sat at picnic tables, four apiece, or stood outside the tent, and we wore our masks, which

we intermittently unhitched as we sipped our coffee graciously supplied by Starbucks. And we got some real business accomplished even as we enjoyed the new reality of it.

New stores and businesses are opening.

Three cheers to those optimists who are starting up during a pandemic-caused recession. Clearly they feel the time is right for them. There were over half a dozen that just joined the chamber, some of them pivoting from their prior businesses that did not sustain them. Owners of established stores in Port Jeff Village were looking better than glum.

Children are receiving some combination of regular education, in person and remotely, which makes them and their parents and teachers a lot happier. Restaurants have largely managed to survive thanks to outdoor dining and curbside pickup, but now their owners worry about the coming colder weather. Outdoor heaters will be allowed, a la Paris, with appropriate permits from local fire department officials to ensure safety. Shoppers with masks and hand sanitizers are routinely grocery shopping. Following medical guidelines, we have learned how to cope in such situations.
