Brooklyn Democrat Brook-Krasny switches to GOP as he eyes Assembly run

Fed up with his party’s kowtowing to its “progressive” wing with soft-on-crime policies, a former conservative Democratic Brooklyn lawmaker switched his party registration to Republican as he plots a run for his old Assembly seat in the borough’s red-trending southern precincts, The Post has learned.

Alec Brook-Krasny’s switch comes as Democrats flee the party nationally, with 29 House Democrats deciding to retire or not seek re-election instead of fighting against the GOP’s “defund the police” attacks and President Biden’s policies.

“I can’t believe everything that’s going on in the Democratic party, all the calls to ‘defund the police,’ the cancel culture. It goes against my character and my nature,” Brook-Krasny, a former state assemblyman, told The Post.

Brook-Krasny is eying a run for his old Assembly seat in the 46th District, which under redistricting includes Coney Island, Brighton Beach, Bath Beach and Dyker Heights. Mathylde Frontus is the Democratic incumbent.

The first Russian-speaking member of the Assembly — who beat charges in 2019 of helping a crooked doctor run a $6.3 million pill mill — confirmed he’s preparing to run for Assembly as a Republican.

“Members of Democratic Party turned on the police — the people who provide safety and security to our constituents,” he said, referring to eliminating cash bail for most alleged crimes.

The party switcher also said he’s a strong supporter of school choice and charter school expansion — calling Democratic lawmakers’ effort to limit options to students and parents “un-American.”

He predicted other moderate and conservative Democrat pols in southern Brooklyn will soon follow his lead.

“I think this is just the beginning,” he said. “I think we will see a trend. I’ve tried for a long time, but I don’t think I can change the Democratic party from the inside out, so it’s time to work from the outside.”

Even in blue-leaning New York, Democrats took a beating at the polls last fall — with a red wave sweeping the city suburbs.

CNN's newest star ‘irate’ at state of network – media

The ex-Fox News host Chris Wallace is reportedly ‘second guessing’ his big move

Chris Wallace is second guessing his move from Fox News to CNN, according to a report from Radar, as he is “irate” over the state of things at the network.

“Wallace feels that he has been stiffed. He's got no staff, no Executive Producer and the guy he gave up a prized gig for has just walked out the door,” one source told the publication last week, referring to network head Jeff Zucker departing the network ahead of some major changes, including the launch of a streaming service, which Wallace is supposed to headline.

Zucker and Wallace, who is reportedly earning between $8 and $10 million annually, were allegedly close, with the former network head said to be a big reason behind the shocking jump from a primarily conservative leaning channel to a left-leaning one.

Zucker, who recently left the network over a relationship with a fellow employee, sold Wallace as the network’s new “premiere journalist,” sources said, and “spun his magic” to “allay” concerns Wallace had about CNN host Jake Tapper and Sam Feist, the network’s senior vice president.

“It’s no secret in DC that Wallace hates Jake Tapper and despises Sam Feist,” Radar’s source said.

Wallace’s alleged misgivings about his latest partnership sparked a handful of celebrations among conservative pundits critical of CNN.

Wallace announced his departure from Fox in December after 18 years with the network. Though he was one of their more recognizable faces, the anchor earned backlash among the right-leaning audience for covering former President Donald Trump more negatively than others on the network’s lineup.
