Republican Assembly Candidate Condemns Brian Stack Letter, Calls for Term Limits

March 9, 2025 – A recent letter from Union City Mayor and State Senator Brian P. Stack to Republican voters has sparked political controversy and drawn sharp criticism from a Republican candidate running for the New Jersey State Assembly in the 37th District. The candidate has condemned Stack’s request for Republicans to temporarily switch party affiliation to vote in the Democratic primary as an example of political manipulation and a sign of the entrenched political machine dominating New Jersey politics.
In the letter, Stack urged Republican voters to change their party registration to Democrat so they could support his handpicked Assembly candidates, Gabriel Rodriguez and Larry Wainstein, in the June 10th primary. Stack even promised to assist voters in switching back to Republican registration after the primary.
“How can you help?” Stack wrote in the letter. “If possible, I’m asking you to temporarily switch your party affiliation from Republican to Democrat so you can vote for my Assembly candidates. If you’d like, I will help switch you back to Republican the day after the primary.”
The letter, which was sent to Republican households in Hudson County, prompted outrage from political opponents who viewed the request as a blatant effort to manipulate the election process and strengthen Stack’s political influence.
The Republican candidate from the 37th District, a former U.S. Marine and EMT, was quick to respond with a strong statement condemning Stack’s tactics and calling for urgent political reform.
“This is exactly why I’m running for State Assembly,” the candidate said. “Brian Stack’s letter is a perfect example of the political machine that has controlled New Jersey for far too long. Political bosses like Stack have used backroom deals and party-switching games to consolidate power and control who gets elected. This is not democracy — it’s manipulation.”
The candidate framed Stack’s letter as further evidence of why New Jersey needs term limits at all levels of government — from municipal offices to state government.
“Voters — both Democrat and Republican — need to stand up and put an end to lifelong career politicians who serve themselves, not the people,” the candidate stated. “When I’m elected to the Assembly, I will introduce legislation to establish term limits for all elected offices. We need fresh leadership and real accountability — not more of the same political insiders recycling power among themselves.”
The candidate accused Governor Phil Murphy and Attorney General Matt Platkin of enabling political maneuvering and weakening the state’s political integrity through their policies. The candidate promised that, if elected, their first order of business would be introducing term limit legislation and dismantling the political structures that have allowed long-standing politicians to control the system.
Stack’s letter also raised concerns among election law experts. While New Jersey election law allows voters to change their party affiliation, encouraging mass party-switching to influence a primary raises ethical and legal questions.
“This is why we need proper checks and balances,” the candidate added. “Political machines like this thrive when there are no consequences for career politicians. Term limits would prevent this kind of political manipulation and force politicians to serve the people — not their own interests.”
Stack has not publicly responded to the criticism, but his letter underscores the growing tension between establishment politicians and grassroots reform efforts within New Jersey’s political landscape. With the June primary fast approaching, Stack’s request and the fierce pushback from Republican candidates are likely to remain flashpoints in the upcoming election cycle.
The Republican candidate concluded their statement with a direct promise to voters: “Enough is enough. When I walk into Trenton, I’ll be fighting for the people — not the political machines.”

Hudson County, NJ Sheriff’s Officers Set the Standard for De-Escalation!

Tonight, we recognize the Hudson County Sheriff’s Officers for their outstanding professionalism and de-escalation skills—handling a situation with respect and fairness, when so many other departments might have resorted to unnecessary force or arrest.
At a Hudson County Commissioners Meeting, a member of the public attended, expecting to speak during the public comment session, just as he has done at numerous other meetings. What he didn’t know was that Hudson County has an unconstitutional rule requiring people to email the commissioners 24 hours in advance to “ask permission” to speak at a public meeting.
There was no sign-up sheet, no posted notice, and no way for him to know about this rule.
The man waited all night, patiently sitting through the meeting, expecting his turn to speak. However, when he finally thought it was time, the commissioners voted to end public comment without giving him the chance to speak.
When the man rightfully protested being denied his voice, instead of calmly explaining their unconstitutional rule, one commissioner aggressively escalated the situation, immediately yelling at the man.
In many other places, this could have led to the man being tackled, tasered, or arrested. But instead, the Hudson County Sheriff’s Officers stepped in and demonstrated real de-escalation, true professionalism, and genuine respect for the public.
They quickly diffused the situation and engaged in a respectful conversation with the man, who simply wanted to exercise his right to speak. They listened, treated him with dignity, and by the end of the night, they were shaking hands and sharing a positive exchange.
Where other law enforcement agencies might have resorted to force or arrest, the Hudson County Sheriff’s Officers ensured the man went home feeling heard.
This is a direct reflection of the leadership of HUDSON COUNTY SHERIFF FRANK SCHILLARI and LIEUTENANT RUIZ, who train their officers not just in law enforcement, but in true public service. Their officers showed tonight what it means to protect both public safety and the public’s constitutional rights.
Any police department can claim to support de-escalation and constitutional rights, but the Hudson County Sheriff’s Officers proved it tonight.
I am proud to know these officers and grateful for their dedication to serving the public with professionalism and integrity.

No Confidence: Now Two Top Officials Face No Confidence

In an unprecedented development, Hudson County is witnessing simultaneous votes of no confidence against two of its top public safety officials: Union City Police Chief Anthony Facchini and Jersey City Public Safety Director James Shea. These actions have raised significant concerns about internal department morale and public perception of law enforcement leadership.
Union City Police Chief Anthony Facchini
Chief Facchini, appointed in 2022, is currently facing a no-confidence vote initiated by the Union City Police Department’s Policemen’s Benevolent Association (PBA) Local 8. While specific details of the allegations have not been publicly disclosed, sources indicate that a majority of the association’s members are prepared to participate, reflecting deep-seated dissatisfaction within the ranks.
Jersey City Public Safety Director James Shea
Concurrently, the Jersey City Council has passed a resolution expressing no confidence in Public Safety Director James Shea. The resolution, approved by a 6-1 vote, cites concerns over Shea’s lack of responsiveness to council inquiries and perceived shortcomings in addressing public safety issues. Councilman Frank Gilmore, who sponsored the resolution, emphasized a “clear pattern of continuing to ignore the council” regarding safety measures for residents.
Implications for Departmental Morale and Public Perception
Votes of no confidence are significant indicators of internal unrest within law enforcement agencies. They often stem from perceived leadership failures, mismanagement, or ethical concerns. Such votes can severely impact departmental morale, leading to decreased productivity, increased attrition, and a breakdown in the chain of command.
For the public, these votes can erode trust in law enforcement, fostering skepticism about the integrity and effectiveness of those sworn to protect and serve. Communities may question the commitment of their leaders to uphold justice and ensure public safety, leading to strained community-police relations.
The Role and Impact of No-Confidence Votes
A vote of no confidence serves as a formal expression of dissatisfaction by subordinates or governing bodies toward a leader. While typically symbolic, such votes can prompt administrative reviews, policy changes, or even the resignation or removal of the official in question. The International Association of Chiefs of Police notes that while these votes do not have legal force, they carry substantial weight in assessing a leader’s effectiveness and the overall health of an organization.
Consequences for Professional Careers and Reputations
Enduring a no-confidence vote can have lasting repercussions on an official’s career and reputation. It publicly signals a breach in trust and questions the individual’s leadership capabilities. Such a vote can hinder future career prospects, diminish professional credibility, and lead to increased scrutiny from both the public and oversight bodies.
Conclusion
The concurrent no-confidence votes against Chief Facchini and Director Shea underscore significant challenges within Hudson County’s public safety leadership. Addressing the underlying issues prompting these votes is crucial for restoring internal morale, maintaining public trust, and ensuring the effective administration of justice.

🚨🔥 UNION CITY HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER FIRED UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES AS SCHOOL OFFICIALS ACCUSED OF COVER-UP! 🔥🚨BOE HIRED ALLEGED RAPIST SERGIO DEROJAS AS NEW Union City SCHOOLS SAFETY DIRECTOR!🔥🚨

Recent reports indicate that a Union City High School (UCHS) teacher was abruptly terminated last week under suspicious circumstances. Allegations suggest that top school officials are actively concealing the details, potentially covering up inappropriate relationships between the teacher and students. This incident is part of a disturbing pattern spanning over 20 years, where Union City Board of Education (BOE) officials have been implicated in covering up teacher sexual misconduct—AND A JUDGE JUST RULED THEY CAN BE HELD LIABLE! 🚨
👀 WHO KNOWS & IS KEEPING QUIET?
🔴 Superintendent Silvia Abbato 🏫
🔴 Mayor & State Senator Brian Stack 🎩
🔴 UCHS Principal Ryan Lewis 📚
🔴 Union President Barbara Pinzon ⚖️
💥 THE LAW IS CLEAR—THEY MUST REPORT OR FACE PENALTIES!
📜 In New Jersey, anyone who suspects child abuse, including educator misconduct, is legally required to report it IMMEDIATELY to the Division of Child Protection and Permanency (DCPP). ❌🚔
❌ Failure to report is a criminal offense punishable by:
⚠️ Up to $500 in fines
⚠️ Up to 6 months in jail
⚠️ Disciplinary action for knowingly covering up misconduct
📢 JUDGE RULES: UNION CITY BOARD OF EDUCATION CAN BE HELD LIABLE!
In a BOMBSHELL RULING, Hudson County Superior Court Judge Kalimah Ahmad ruled last week that the Union City Board of Education CAN be held liable for a teacher’s sexual assault of two students dating back to 2004. This proves what many in the community have known all along—THEY HAVE BEEN COVERING FOR PREDATORS FOR DECADES!
Judge Ahmad revealed shocking facts in the ruling, exposing how Union City school officials ignored multiple warnings about teacher Francisco Realpe, allowing him to remain employed even after teachers and supervisors flagged his disturbing relationships with students.
👉 “The Board ignored their suspicions towards Defendant Realpe, did not investigate into Defendant Realpe’s relationships with multiple underage students, and allowed him to remain employed until his termination in 2005,” wrote Judge Ahmad.
👉 Jessica Garcia, one of Realpe’s victims, finally saw justice when the judge DENIED the Union City BOE’s motion to dismiss her case. “I had such a feeling of not just relief, but validation, to read the Court Order, especially seeing, in all capital letters, the word DENIED,” said Garcia.
👉 Realpe was eventually sentenced to four years in prison in January 2023, but HOW MANY OTHER TEACHERS HAVE BEEN PROTECTED JUST LIKE HIM? HOW MANY VICTIMS NEVER GOT JUSTICE?
🚨 AND NOW, MAYOR BRIAN STACK JUST HIRED AN ACCUSED RAPIST AS SCHOOL SAFETY DIRECTOR?!? 🚨
🔴 In a gut-wrenching slap to every woman in this country, Mayor Brian Stack and the Union City Board of Education have just hired retired Union City Lieutenant Sergio Rojas as the new Director of Safety for Union City schools!
🚨 Who is Sergio Rojas?
✔️ He has been accused of raping a female police dispatcher while he was a sergeant.
✔️ The victim was retaliated against.
✔️ The semen-stained chair with evidence was allegedly destroyed on orders from Mayor Brian Stack.
✔️ Instead of being held accountable, Rojas was PROMOTED to Lieutenant.
✔️ And NOW, Stack just gave him a job protecting OUR CHILDREN?!? 😡
🔥 THIS IS INSANE! THIS IS CRIMINAL! ROJAS MUST BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY! 🔥
This is not just negligence—this is deliberate, systemic corruption that enables sexual predators while silencing victims. 🚨 The entire Union City Board of Education must be removed, Mayor Brian Stack must resign, and the FBI must investigate every official involved in this cover-up!
⚠️ CALL TO ACTION: DEMAND JUSTICE NOW!
❗ If you have ANY information about inappropriate relationships between teachers and students OR if you know which administrators are covering it up, you must come forward NOW! ❗
