During a press conference
about speed enforcement cameras in school zones at Manhattan’s PS 199, House Judiciary
Chairman Jerry Nadler nearly fainted.
Nadler who was seated
beside groundhog murderer Mayor de Blasio began to “look pale and his head
dropped into his hands,” according to The
Daily News.
“De Blasio reached over
to comfort Nadler and white-coated doctors rushed onto the dais behind a sign
reading Speed Cameras Save Lives.”
After being taken to
the hospital Nadler tweeted an update: “Appreciate everyone’s concern. Was very
warm in the room this morning, was obviously dehydrated and felt a bit ill.
Glad to receive fluids and am feeling much better. Thank you for your
thoughts.”
It would behoove him to
loosen his belt a bit underneath his armpits.

I’m going to hell for mocking
Jerry Nadler, but I ain’t the only one.
In 2016, the New
York Post reported staffers at the Democratic National Committee made fun
of Nadler’s enormous girth. It seems
Nadler’s office asked to attend an Obama fundraiser in June of that year.
“Do you really want
Nadler there?” Jordan Kaplan, then DNC national finance director, asked the
White House.
DNC staffer, Zach
Allen, took to mocking Nadler’s weight in an email exchange: “Homeboy is NOT
little.”
Kaplan chimed in: “I
thought he got his tummy tucked.”
Allen responded: “He
did, but like [Chris] Christie it all came back.”
The exchange was part
of the pile of DNC released
by WikiLeaks.
I feel genuine compassion
for Nadler after watching the video. I wish him no ill will where his health is
concerned.
