• The dad of the victim in a brutal anti-Semitic attack lashed out Monday at Jewish Democratic leaders Jerry Nadler and Chuck Schumer, accusing them during a contentious House Judiciary Committee field hearing of ignoring his son’s plight while permitting Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s soft-on-crime policies.
• Barry Borgen told Nadler, the committee’s ranking member, that he was “disappointed” with his fellow “Jewish New Yorker” over his response to the attack on Joseph Borgen, who was brutally beaten while walking to a pro-Israel rally near Times Square in May 2021.
• “I called Mr. Schumer’s office, another Jewish New Yorker, numerous times. No one called us back,” Borgen told Nadler, who reps Midtown Manhattan as well as the Upper West Side and Upper East Side, of his treatment by the Senate’s majority leader.
