Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, June 19, 2025

A knife-wielding immigrant from El Salvador with a lengthy criminal record allegedly chased after one of New York's top federal prosecutors in Albany. Police arrested Saul Morales-Garcia (40) after he menaced US Attorney John Sarcone III on Tuesday night outside a hotel in the heart of the city while the prosecutor was enjoying a cigar. The suspect started yelling at him, pulled out a knife and began chasing him. The federal prosecutor retreated into a hotel and called Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple's personal telephone number. The suspect was arrested moments later and arraigned on attempted murder, felony weapons, and menacing charges. "I'm a resident of the city of Albany, and ... I don't feel safe to go out for a walk and have a cigar right near the state Capitol," Mr. Sarcone whined.

  • A criminal complaint is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

    There are two takeaways from this vignette. One: If you look up the definition for political hack,' you will see John Sarcone III's face. In 2022, this chubby Republican lost his election bid for Attorney-General of New York. So, the Trumpf junta awarded this undistinguished attorney with this AUSA appointment in Albany. See his flaccid bio here: Bio. Two: For a few moments anyhow, this privileged white apparatchik felt some terror the way millions of immigrants are feeling terrified under the oppressive Trumpf Reign of Terror which Sarcone proudly serves. This serious incident must have looked comical and so far no surveillance video of this episode has surfaced on the internet.
