Hoboken 6th Ward councilwoman
Jen didn’t write this. She can barely string together 2 sentences
Strikes again. Women sit over there on that side… The Men are in charge in “Bhalla World”
What next women in veils, red robes and burkas?
What makes you think the mayor’s “team” had anything to do with that comment?
Rafi Cordova can barely string together one sentence and he allegedly went to Yale.
It is so funny how easy it is to spot tony’s posts
It is amazing how obsessed he is with rafi.
He seems so scared of a guy who he claims is so dumb
You seem obsessed with Tony’s Dog…
He should quit now.
Keep Guessing.
Nobody knows who the F you’re talking about.
But it seems this Tony guy is who YOU’RE the one obsessed
Last Check, Rafi is a candidate and open to public scrutiny
This paid assassin stuff is wearing a bit thin. For once, it would be great for someone from Team Bhalla to post something of substance. You folks are running this City into a ditch and all you can do is name call and bloviate about issues over which you have no control. Grow up….
What makes you think the mayor’s “team” had anything to do with that comment?
Do we really want elitist anti Israel views running our city?
Rafi condemn your alma mater now!

Tony did you go to college or are you like Jen
Hi Jason, are you still thinking there’s only one person on this website?
Who cares if Jen or Tony went to college- they don’t suck off the public and feign moral high ground – Unlike Team Ravi bullies who need to suck from Ravi’s Teet and “ buy” bars, trade legal contracts, get multiple public payroll jobs to earn a living
Once Bhalla’s out, they won’t enjoy Hoboken without a job
Ravi’s heart is with Hamas. We can’t talk about this at the moment. First we distributed terror fliers, now we’re tearing down hostage fliers. We’re fighting white privilege.
Typical HCV “moderated conversation.” It’s the same old racist-toned jabs instead of having a real conversation about the candidates. Take a look at Blue Violets dispensary’s IG. It’s a major issue in town and it’s very disappointing to see how Jen handled it. There’s a lot of talk of puppets but the real puppet master is Tiffanie. She’s been bitterly angry since she was embarrassingly removed as HDC Chair in 2017. It’s easy to look like the hero when you in fact start the fire. Case in point with Story. She didn’t do her job by carefully reviewing the maps, she only cared about her building. And then came in trying to be a savior to kick Story out. Yet, she still lost. Where’s the 20k word newsletter on that? She’s grasping at every straw and using people like Jen and Liz so she doesn’t look like the lonely psycho she actually is.
The second ward deserves but frankly so do the HCV readers.
Stop whining and hire better lawyers next time…
Really shocked at the name calling by the losing Applicant -an attorney to boot!
The sexist use of “ Karen” name calling is offensive especially since the BV couple drops “ minority owned “ and woman owned” business so frequently
Even if they were approved now, I would go
They’re such vicious people
And I hope the realize they could be creating ELECT conflicts for Team Weed-Bhalla
Sad, they have to play guessing games all day… And to think Jason is still acting like a non profit junior staffer … Well The way he runs Hoboken, the non profit status is accurate anyway
Booo Hooooooo! Poor Rachel Hodes and Jason Freeman the wanna be Bill and Hillary think they are some sort of power couple.
Entitled brats that ran the Hoboken Dems into the side of a mountain and act as if it’s their private little club house.
It’s the only resume item on any of Sleaze Team Bhalla’s candidates resumes
They dont do squat, rarely register new voters and their meetings published where?
They are an embarrassment to the DNC and HCDO
With zero experience running a business improvement district city hall tried to muscle their puppet to get the role running the HBA… Imagine what John Allen’s Bars would get away with if that happens? Close all streets for open air drinking fests under the guise of “Open Streets” and Pedestrian safety…
Hubby better get hs resume polished up before Pappa Ravi loses his primary and the HCDO sends him to political exile
