Baruch Feldheim, 43, is facing charges of assault and making false statements to the feds on Sunday outside his Borough Park home where he allegedly peddled and stored massive amounts of N95 respirator masks, federal officials said.

Feldheim is also accused of price-gouging. On March 18, he’s suspected of selling a New Jersey doctor about 1,000 of the masks for $12,000, a markup of roughly 700 percent, authorities said.

The arrest comes after President Trump claimed that some medical supplies were being swiped from New York City hospitals, which Mayor Bill de Blasio dismissed as insulting.

So where the hell was he getting the shipments from? Hopefully we’ll find out the rest of the story one of these years, and the remaining perps will hang.

“So how did he get them? Who on the inside helped him acquire the masks?”

The masks are probably cheap Chinese knock offs. Uhhhh no wait!

The Feds are the ones hoarding stuff. And the FBI agents that rounded up this punk will be the same ones that will be going door to door rounding up those on the red list.

Enjoy you tyranny courtesy of the Federal police state.

Sounds like a setup on the coughing in the agents. Not sure if there was an actual federal criminal law broken in possessing all those supplies.

Two days later, the suspected hoarder received a gigantic shipment to his home of about eight pallets of face masks.

How was this guy able to get eight pallets of face masks but Cuomo and de Balsio can't find any?

What you just described is the Atty. General I thought we were getting. I will be the first to say that I don’t know the whole picture. I don’t know why some things never quite get the full legal treatment I expect. But I did expect to see just a few heads a-rollin’ here & there.

I’ve heard nothing at all since the big Coco-Virus became the elephant in every single room. I don’t think Roger will do well in jail, long term. He is a wild spirit. Not meant for captivity.

If he bought them from a Canadian supplier, I’m not sure there is a crime.

I doubt they came from a Canadian supplier. More likely from a New York State warehouse with involvement by organized crime.

Spitting on the FBI agent was just stupid.

What I don't understand is why hospitals and states weren't prepared for this though they knew it would come.

6 months ago you could fill a garage with PPE from Ebay for $1,000.

My family and I aren't hard core preppers but we have enough stuff to care for our family, hopefully.

What's that PPP...Piss Poor Planning thingy?

I've looked at the numbers.

Here in PA (Skewed by Filthadelphia).

Only the sick are tested and only 10% are positive and of those 10% are hospitalized and of those 10% die with about a 1% mortality rate for those that test positive.

Since 80%+ have mild symptoms and don't require hospitalization this means this is not Ebola or the Zombie Apocalypse.

There are 386 people hospitalized in PA and they're running out of PPE?

Somethin'ain't right!

#8. Cuomo posing as an FBI agent. Arrest the faker for impersonating a law enforcement officer. In fact, arrest him for impersonating a human being.

Do you think he could be one of the Pod People from “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”? He sure looks like one - zombie stare, slow hand motions, speaks like he is drugged, wants to rule the earth.
