Interns are my favorite. They work in the summer heat and they leave when it's over. They don't hang around thinking I give a damn about their thoughts. They just go. And they hardly cost much of the Suffolk County Dem contributions that I gobble up for Babylon. #richschaffer #babylon #democrats

Some people say that my greed and disregard for people-driven democracy knows no bounds. To this I say, "Go Mets!" #richschaffer #suffolk #democrats huntingtonnow.com/suffolk-clos...

Oh, no, no, no, no! You want a sparsely filled committee of patronage loyalists, that way I can appoint a pile of toadies to vote away any leadership challenges. We don't want an army of supporters! Jacobin is dumb. #babylon #democrats @newsday.bsky.social #richschaffer #longisland #suffolk

Someone called the Suffolk Democratic Party an emoyment office yesterday. Do a little work, get a job. It requires more than a little work, but the point is accuratw. I employ people. It is the source of my power. #richschaffer #babylon #suffolk #longisland #democrats @newsday.bsky.social

This sort of thing can NEVER compete with my charisma, lies and backstabbing, when combined with occasional patronage appointments in Babylon Town government. #richschaffer #suffolk #democrats #babylon #longisland

Oh, what would she know about politics? Just show up! Do as you're told. I'll reward you with a taxpayer funded job. Just keep your mouth shut. #suffolk #babylon #democrats #longisland #richschaffer www.axios.com/2025/06/04/k...

Sure. But everything is great in Babylon. At the end of the day, that's what really matters. Am I right? Rich Schaffer yesterday! Rich Schaffer today! Rich Schaffer tomorrow! @newsday.bsky.social #richschaffer #suffolk #babylon #democrats podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

I LOVE these stoicism quotes. They say so much that is true. I posted this one recently. It says to, "show up." Seriously. Just show up! We need you here to walk petitions. The party depends on free labor. It doesn't ask you to talk or to lead. We are just fine in those departments! #democrats

As the Knicks mount their comeback against the Pacers, someone sent me this. It is right! Politicians from ALL sides serve best as we erase divisions and work as a TEAM! #edromaine @longislander520.bsky.social #richschaffer #schaffer #babylon #bronny #kobe #longisland #suffolk #democrats

If there's any chance for a photo-op with my favorite county executive I will creep up in the back and BOMB it! For real, for real! #richschaffer #schaffer #babylon #edromaine #suffolkcounty

I've said it for years - they should pay Suffolk Police enough that they wouldn't need to moonlight like this! It's just a shame. I love the Suffolk Police. I adore them. I worship and revere them because they are blessed paragons of upright citizenship! They shouldn't live as paupers! #scpd

Join me. Worship at the temple of Ed Romaine and the PBA. Join us as we sing his glories and give him praises. Then repeat after me, "I will not run a serious challenger to our friend Ed Romaine." @scdaonews.bsky.social #edromaine #babylon #pba #suffolkcounty @indivisibleli.bsky.social

Now that I'm not running anyone against Conservative Republican DA Ray Tierney, I'm starting to think Ed Romaine deserves re-election. Especially if he hands over some judicial cross endorsements! Ed = charmer! @newsday.bsky.social @scdaonews.bsky.social #suffolkcounty #democrat #schaffer #sellout

Wait a minute. I don't understand. How's that? Are they saying that people who seek jobs and pensions will do as they're told? Who makes this crap up? #democrats @scdaonews.bsky.social #babylon @newsday.bsky.social www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Trust me - Democratic leadership is very thankful that the rank and file refuse to criticize us. It is well known - our problem is big city communists who insist on a difference between the Democratic Party and the GOP. Our leadership is NOT the problem! #democrats www.newyorker.com/news/the-pol...

Team Schaffer is REALLY revving up for the election. As the head of the Democratic party I can't think of ANYONE I'd rather have on my team! @scdaonews.bsky.social @long-island-ny.bsky.social @newsday.bsky.social #richschaffer #longisland #babylon #democrat

Gone Girls on Netflix, the documentary about the Gilgo Beach murders, quoted Steve Bellone saying he followed the advice of a couple of trusted people when he appointed James Burke. That was me and Spota! That's how much influence I have! @netflix.com #gonegirls #gilgo #jamesburke

Ray Tierney's motto -- "No One Is Above The Law." Except the Suffolk Police who run an illegal Super PAC. Ray doesn't investigate or prosecute them because, like me, he relies on that PAC for money. I love Ray. He makes me tingle! @scdaonews.bsky.social #tierney #babylon #democrats

This is like the time I stacked the Progressive Caucus with actual active people. If you want to be THIS close to power, you need to shut your mouth. I'll make the decisions here (while pretending to be guileless and affable). www.politico.com/news/2025/04...
