Statement from New York State Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar 

Brooklyn, NY – “The Democratic Party got caught today being undemocratic. Its attempt to rig elections and to shut down political dissent in New York through outrageous gerrymandering was fortunately thwarted in New York State Supreme Court.

“Just a glance at these lines revealed them as ridiculously tainted. Now the Democrats must go back to the drawing board and have new lines ready in less than two weeks. We applaud the court’s decision, and urge them to keep an eye on every pencil line the Democrats draw over the next 11 days. They are not to be trusted.”

The First Amendment reads:  Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.  It does not indicate that the press can censor news to fit its agenda.  This needs to be investigated; Americans must demand the truth as to how it impacted voters.

Bail debate scrambles New York state budget talks.  “… top lawmakers in the state Senate and Assembly remain publicly opposed to scaling the bail law back. Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins has said a “national Republican campaign of fear” has stoked opposition to the bail law over the last several years, unfairly and inaccurately linking the law to the rise in crime.”

“Sure, there are plenty of budget priorities heading into the final two weeks of negotiations in Albany. But are any of them more personal for Gov. Kathy Hochul than getting a deal for a new stadium for her beloved Buffalo Bills?”  Another Buffalo Billion — this time, for the Bills?

At the very least, Governor Hochul is listening to the concerns of New Yorkers.  We haven’t seen the proposals, nor are we confident that the democrats in the legislature, will adopt any portion of what must be done, since they were passed in both houses that are controlled by democrats and they since doing so have dug themselves in on “no changes,” but it is a beginning of a conversation that is truly needed.  Let’s hope Gov. Hochul is doing this for all the right reasons and not just pandering to the people.

Christopher Rufo writes in City Journal about The War on Innocence/A Kentucky summer camp teaches “sex liberation,” “BDSM,” and “self-pleasure” to minors.  “Such a program would hardly cause a stir on the campuses of Oberlin or Barnard, but Sexy Sex Ed is hosting its programs in a deep-red state and recruiting children as young as 13 to discuss graphic sexual practices with the instructors and adult co-participants in their thirties and forties. The camp organizers have admitted that they target vulnerable youth, including foster children, who are at high risk of sexual abuse. (Emphasis added.)

We strongly suggest that President Biden read this article, How liars create the ‘illusion of truth’, and if he cares one iota about America he will follow the advice written in the last paragraph:  “But part of guarding against the illusion is the obligation it puts on us to stop repeating falsehoods. We live in a world where the facts matter, and should matter. If you repeat things without bothering to check if they are true, you are helping to make a world where lies and truth are easier to confuse. So, please, think before you repeat.”
