Like everyone else, I have a past.
In my past, I have written numerous articles and even a book on a variety of subjects ranging from the military to the Holocaust to teenage drivers who cause deaths, even their own, and even women who claim, most likely falsely, that they were sexually abused.
I also set up a website to expose and humiliate men who used the internet to cheat on their girlfriends and wives to whom they were ostensibly committed.
I even wrote an article about an APD officer who assaulted me in 2017. I also went after his young daughter. I stand by the former but regret the latter.
Know this: I stand behind most of what I wrote. The rest of it I could have phrased with more compassion and tact, but I have no regrets.
I have in the past called ICE on illegals and on one occasion my tip got an illegal deported and that tore apart his family.
No regrets. None at all. And I’ll gladly do it again.
In fact, the whole matter of illegals and ICE are my main talking points in this campaign.
But, look, the days of writing awful things are behind me and rather than look behind, I choose to look forward and concentrate on what I can do for Albany as mayor: a lot.
