Dem leader Frank Seddio threatens to rip activist's 'heart out' in caught-on-video rant
We don't often hear from old-fashioned machine pols anymore.
[NYPOST] Brooklyn Democratic Party powerhouse Frank Seddio is captured on video threatening to rip the "f—ing heart out" of a party activist muppet and wishing him a "terrible death" following a dispute over the selection of state judges.

"What I am is a fu—ing Sicilian who will take your f—ing heart out. You are absolutely done. Never f—ing call me again. Don’t go call me for anything. Drop dead," the septuagenarian former Brooklyn Democratic Party chairman raged as he was restrained by colleagues from charging at district leader David Schwartz.

An alarmed Schwartz is then seen videotaping Seddio, who still holds clout in the party as "chairman emeritus" and a district leader.

But the videotaping of his tirade — first reported by The City — did not faze the enraged Seddio.

"Here I am, David, you should only suffer a terrible death," he tells Schwartz.

Another executive committee, Doug Schneider, attempts to calm Seddio down.

"Frank, let’s go outside," he tells Seddio.

The confrontation occurred at the end of a meeting of the Brooklyn Democratic Party’s executive committee last week at Nick’s Lobster House in Marine Park.

The executive panel was recommending a slate of 12 candidates for judgeships to the state Supreme Court
...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations...
in Brooklyn for a judicial nominating convention two days later, which generally amounts to a voice vote among district leaders that is largely called the way party bosses have predetermined it should be.

#1 ....One of the two great blunders! The first is never get involved in a land war in Asia, and the second is never go up against a Sicilian when Supreme Court positions are on the line!

#2 Anyone else need any more evidence that Democrats hate leftists? Please stop pretending that they're on the same side.

#3 ^ forgetting that while the Commies and Nazis hated each other, they were both Socialist and could at times work together.

A Democrat party Soprano,
long in the tooth but
liked to go mano-a-mano.

Why, he broke ol' liberty
by farting her way (!)
after eatin' too much ore-gah-no.

#5 Nazis and commies hate each other. Shia and Sunni are willing to kill each other. That is not an argument that any of them are our friends.

#6 "What I am is a fu—ing Sicilian...

And just like that, we're back to Sicilians.

#7  Anyone else need any more evidence that Democrats hate leftists?

You mean like Shiite terrorist Iran hates Sunni terrorist Al Qaeda? The same Al Qaeda whose probably new Big Turban was sheltered in Iran since 9/11? My dear, I’m afraid you are batting 1.000 today.

Taking another tack, those would be the same Democrats who nearly elected Socialist Independent Bernie Sanders as their presidential candidate in 2020, and whose most public members are the Antifa-supporting Squad.

I do hope they are paying you by the post, Tiny Jeater6933, because you aren't going to make a penny on actually persuading anyone of anything.

#8 Aw, don't listen to her, Tiny. You've totally convinced me that you're Herb... and I claim my five pounds!
