He hates the Cops, despises Israel and he raps; a perfect fit for the modern Democrat party.
A local Brooklyn rapper is looking to become a politician. Noah Weston, 37, is running for district leader in the 46th Assembly District in southern Brooklyn, which takes in Coney Island and Sea Gate and parts of Bath Beach, Bay Ridge, Brighton Beach and Dyker Heights. Weston has courted controversy before with, despite being Jewish himself, making remarks about Israel that could be construed as antisemitic. Weston’s current scandal is a series of tweets where he curses out cops, according to an exclusive New York Post report.
Weston is looking to become a Democratic Party district leader in Brooklyn. He is running on the “For the People” slate with congressional candidate Brittany Ramos De Barros and Assemblyman Mathylde Frontus in southern Brooklyn.
Weston uses the name Soul Khan when he is rapping. “The greatest threats in this city are Eric Adams and the NYPD,” Weston tweeted from noah4DL on Saturday. In addition, he has accused cops of being spreaders of COVID-19 for not wearing masks in public during the pandemic, which The Post reported was a problem. “I just had to tell another dumb pig to put on his f–king mask in the subway system. These cop slobs are plague rats. How f–king dare anyone still act like they’re anything but a liability,” Weston wrote Jan. 7. On April 14, he said, “how f–ked is it that new yorkers were supposed to entrust their safety this week to a police department that has likely killed more people with covid than it has ever saved in most new yorkers’ lifetime?”
One veteran Democratic lawmaker called Weston’s anti-cop screeds “outrageous” and “disgusting. “He’s not fit to be an elected party official using language like that. More than 99 percent of police officers are trying to help our community,” said Assemblyman Peter Abbate Jr., a Democrat who represents parts of southern Brooklyn. “He should remain a rapper. On second thought, I don’t think he’s fit to be a rapper. He’s smearing society.”
Weston defended his cop-bashing as justified when contacted by The Post, saying he merely pointed to wrongdoing. “The ‘sacks of s–t’ and ‘f–king pigs’ comments were in reference to officers beating an elderly man in the subway on video,” he said in a text response. “And the ‘plague rats’ comment was in reference to the NYPD’s general disregard for masking throughout the pandemic, including when they were among the least vaccinated city workers with the most unnecessary intrusions into New Yorkers’ lives, which has likely resulted in them infecting many of us with COVID and ultimately killing New Yorkers.”
“This guy is a complete and total jadrool, and will never get anywhere near the assembly”, a local resident from Seagate told TJV
