Oh, to have an American newspaper be this honest:  ‘We Failed’: Danish Newspaper Apologizes For Its COVID Coverage.

I can’t believe the Governor of New York State said this: Gov. Hochul won’t ‘cave to pressure’ as NYC Mayor Adams calls for bail changes.  “Gov. Kathy Hochul on Wednesday rejected renewed calls to give judges new powers to keep pre-trial suspects behind bars, delivering a potential setback to a key part of Mayor Eric Adams’ new plan to tackle gun violence.” So oblivious to the soaring crime in New York; so unaffected by the senseless shoving of innocent people into subway tracks, so ignorant of the fear that the entire city experiences when two of New York’s young police officers are gunned down in cold blood.  Governor Hochul should take a walk around New York City — ALONE — to understand what every person sees and feels; sit in a Café and listen to what people are saying; shop in a store, any store, food, merchandise, any store in any neighborhood and talk to the people and ask them how they feel about your refusing to “cave to pressure.” To the people of New York:  Help is on the way.  Vote November 8, 2022 for the man who is committed to Saving Our State and the protecting people of New York, Lee Zeldin.

From National Review:  Biden’s Ukraine Problem.

Bob McManus opines in today’s New York Post: Mayor Adams’ plan to tackle crime is complicated — but it might actually work. “… to quote Adams speaking from City Hall yesterday, “We’re going to [target] the trigger-pullers.” To that end, he promised that the NYPD’s hugely successful anti-crime patrols — dissolved by Bill de Blasio — will be reinstated. And that they’ll be deployed to 30 violence-wracked police precincts within three weeks.  Strong words and a promise of swift action, just 24 days into a new administration. This is a hopeful combination.”  As usual, Mr. McManus knows the pulse of New York and is hopeful that Mayor Adams will be able to keep his campaign promises.  High praise from a man who loves his city.

CONSERVATIVE PARTY PETITION CALLS ON GOVERNOR HOCHUL TO REMOVE MANHATTAN DISTRICT ATTORNEY ALVIN BRAGG

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Bill O’Reilly, 212-396-9117
Bill@NovemberTeam.com

CONSERVATIVE PARTY PETITION CALLS ON GOVERNOR HOCHUL TO REMOVE MANHATTAN DISTRICT ATTORNEY ALVIN BRAGG  

“If Governor Hochul allows Mr. Bragg to remain district attorney, she’ll be signing the death warrant of an untold number of New Yorkers. Firing him could be the most important act she makes as governor of this state.”

Brooklyn, NY – Jan. 14, 2022 The New York State Conservative Party today released an online petition calling on Governor Kathy Hochul to remove newly elected New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg from office, which she has the power to do. D.A. Bragg recently announced that he would not seek prison sentences for dozens of serious crimes, sparking immediate public outrage.

Governor Hochul has failed to take any action thus far about Mr. Bragg’s refusal to properly enforce the law.

“The Conservative Party is the party of common sense in New York, and common sense is needed more than ever in this case,” said Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar. “We have a renegade district attorney on our hands, and he must be removed from office. We urge New Yorkers to sign our petition to Governor Hochul, because — guaranteed — people are going to die because of Mr. Bragg’s wild ideological policy decision.”

In his first memo to staff on Monday, January 3rd, Mr. Bragg said his office “will not seek a carceral sentence” except with homicides and a handful of other cases, including domestic violence felonies, some sex crimes, and public corruption.

Bragg’s memo detailed the following instructions for prosecutors to reduce charges filed by cops in various cases:

  • Armed robbers who use guns or other deadly weapons to stick up stores and other businesses will be prosecuted only for petty larceny, a misdemeanor, provided no victims were seriously injured and there’s no “genuine risk of physical harm” to anyone. Armed robbery, a class B felony, would typically be punishable by a maximum of 25 years in prison, while petty larceny subjects offenders to up to 364 days in jail and a $1,000 fine.
  • Convicted criminals caught with weapons other than guns will have those felony charges downgraded to misdemeanors unless they’re also charged with more serious offenses. Criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, a class D felony, is punishable by up to 7 years behind bars.
  • Burglars who steal from residential storage areas, parts of homes that aren’t “accessible to a living area” and businesses located in mixed-use buildings will be prosecuted for a low-level class D felony that only covers break-ins instead of for more serious crimes. Those more serious crimes, class B and class C felonies would be punishable by up to 25 and up to 15 years in prison respectively.
  • Drug dealers believed to be “acting as a low-level agent of a seller” will be prosecuted only for misdemeanor possession. Also, suspected dealers will only be prosecuted on felony charges if they’re also accused of more serious crimes or are actually caught in the act of selling drugs. That felony would mean facing up to seven years behind bars.

Mr. Bragg continued: “ADAs should use their judgment and experience to evaluate the person arrested, and identify people: who suffer from mental illness; who are unhoused; who commit crimes of poverty; or who suffer from substance use disorders. Charges should be brought consistent with the goal of providing services to such individuals, and leverage during plea negotiations should not be a factor in this decision,” he wrote.

“If Governor Hochul allows Mr. Bragg to remain district attorney, she’ll be signing the death warrant of an untold number of New Yorkers. Firing him could be the most important act she makes as governor of this state,” Mr. Kassar said.
