DEMOCRATS PUSH TO IMPEACH TRUMP OVER UKRAINE PHONE CALL

Now that the Russian collusion facade has fizzled out, Democrats have concocted a new way to attack President Trump. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has announced an impeachment inquiry over a phone call Trump had with the Ukrainian President in July that they claim is unlawful and improper.

“The President has tried to make lawlessness a virtue in America and now is exporting it abroad,” Pelosi said. “The transcript and the Justice Department’s acting in a rogue fashion in being complicit in the President’s lawlessness confirm the need for an impeachment inquiry. Clearly, the Congress must act.”

A rough transcript of the phone call between Trump and the Ukrainian President was released publicly on Wednesday, and the initial complaint filed by a whistle-blower that started the controversy was released to the public on Thursday. Trump maintains that he has committed no wrong-doing, and his Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire backed him up during a hearing before the House Intelligence Committee on Thursday.

“It’s a disgrace to our country. It’s another witch hunt, here we go again. It’s Adam Schiff and his crew making up stories and sitting there like pirates, whatever you want to call them. It really is a disgrace. It’s a terrible thing for our country,” Trump said of the entire ordeal.

Trump believes the real scandal is Vice President Joe Biden abusing his authority in 2016 to strong-arm Ukrainian authorities to fire a prosecutor who was allegedly looking into a firm that employed his son, Hunter.

“I’ve done just about more than any president in his two-and-a-half years in office. I think very few could compare to what we’ve done for the military, the economy. We have the best economy anywhere in the world by far. We’ve rebuilt our military. We’ve done so many things that are so incredible with tax cuts and regulation, and I have to put up with Adam Schiff on an absolutely perfect phone call to the new president of Ukraine,” Trump said.

Calls for Impeachment Are Getting Louder

Congressman Antonio Delgado, Congressman Sean Patrick Maloney have joined the democratic corpus calling for President Donald J. Trump’s impeachment based on hearsay, while Congressman Max Rose, lacking any backbone, does his best to have it both ways. Congressman Rose issued a carefully worded statement indicating his belief that “a President attempting to blackmail a foreign government into targeting American citizens is …an invitation to the enemies of the United States to come after any citizen so long as they happen to disagree with the President.”  Congressman Rose then calls for the facts.  Shouldn’t the facts come first, Congressman, before one jumps to a conclusion based solely on a whistle-blower’s beliefs?

Conservative Party files Amicus Brief Opposing New York’s Green Light Law

Earlier this week, the Conservative Party filed in the United States District Court Western District of New York, an Amicus Curiae brief in support of Erie County Clerk Michael P. Kearns’ motion for a preliminary injunction against the implementation of New York’s Green Light Law.

It is the belief of the Conservative Party that the Green Light Law was written specifically to withhold information from federal law enforcement officials creating a security risk to the citizens of New York.  Duties of the DMV are primarily administered by elected county clerks, who will be required to follow the new law — and ignore federal law — or be removed by Governor Cuomo as allowed by the State Constitution.    The Conservative Party of New York State believes the only way this conflict will be resolved is via the previously filed lawsuit which this Amicus Curiae brief supports.

President Trump on Religious Freedom

“As President, protecting religious freedom is one of my highest priorities,” Trump told the nations of the world on Monday.

Kudos to President Trump for shinning the light on religious freedom while hosting a meeting at the United Nations.

In his keynote address to the UN, President Trump pointed to alarming statistics showing 80% of the world’s population lives in countries where religious liberty is threatened, restricted, or even banned.

The President urged nations to repeal laws that restrict religious freedom and increase prosecution towards crimes against people of faith.

“To stop the crimes against people of faith, release prisoners of conscience, repeal laws restricting freedom of religion and belief, protect the vulnerable, the defenseless, and the oppressed, America stands with believers in every country who ask only for the freedom to live according to the faith that is within their own hearts,” he said.

PRESIDENT TRUMP TOUTS ‘VIRTUALLY IMPENETRABLE’ BORDER WALL

President Donald Trump campaigned on a promise to build a wall, and he is living up to that promise. He showed the world the incredible progress that has been made at the southern border during a trip to Otay Mesa, California this week.

“It’s an amazing project,” he said pointing to nearby Tijuana, just a few hundred feet to the south. “There are thousands of people over there that had been trying to get in.”

“I think really the success is going to be when the wall’s built, when the human traffickers can’t come through,” Trump said to a group of reporters during his visit. “This is certainly a tremendous national emergency.”

The President boasted that 20 of the world’s greatest mountain climbers tested different wall prototypes, and the one he was standing by was the most difficult to scale.

“This is the one that was hardest to climb,” Trump said. “This wall can’t be climbed.”

He also mentioned how the wall was built to absorb heat, which would provide another impediment to anyone trying to hop over it.

“You can fry an egg on that wall,” Trump said.

Trump also brought up Mexico’s role in curbing immigration enforcement demands. Apprehensions are dropping because Mexico is doing their job keeping the illegals from getting near the U.S. southern border. Trump is pressuring the Mexican government with tariffs to keep them honest.

“If Mexico stopped helping us, that would immediately be on the table … and that would pay for the wall many times over,” Trump said.

Heading into next year’s presidential election, Trump is kicking his immigration crackdown into high gear at the perfect time to remind his passionate supporters why they moved mountains to put the man into office in 2016, and why they should do so yet again in 2020.

CONSERVATIVE PARTY CHAIRMAN GERARD KASSAR MAKES THE MEDIA ROUNDS

New York State Conservative Party (CPNYS) Chairman Gerard Kassar made the media rounds this week, talking on state-wide and national broadcasts about the necessity of fighting for conservative values outside of the corrupt two-party system.

Kassar began a busy media junket on Wednesday with an appearance on the “Joe Piscopo Show” on AM 970 before appearing on “Liquid Lunch” with John Tabacco on NewsmaxTV to talk about how the CPNYS represents the values of the average New Yorker.

“They work against what the average individual in New York state has an interest in,” Kassar said of the liberal elites that dominate New York politics. “We believe we’re part of a not-so-silent majority. We’re kind of loud about it. We have hundreds of thousands of voters on our line, but we represent more of a philosophical movement.”

“We really want government off our backs, and we want to live our lives as we see fit with some money in our pockets to spend on what we want to spend it on,” Kassar said to summarize the view of the CPNYS.

Kassar mentioned that he thinks Sen. Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren of Massachusetts will ultimately be the Democratic presidential challenger against Donald Trump in 2020 and commented about attitudes that are building against law enforcement to finish the interview.

“There are more bad eggs coming out of our education system … due to very liberal teachers or college professors that just show no interest in expressing what the value is in having an orderly society that law enforcement represents,” Kassar explained.

That same evening, Kassar made an appearance on “Cats at Night” with John Catsimatidis where a group discussion took place about the nature of New York politics and the challenges facing conservatives operating in what has become a solidly blue state.

“The progressives operate within the Democratic Party. The Conservative Party does not operate within the Republican Party, so there is kind of a different way of looking at it. We are a true multiple of what the Republican Party candidate gets if we endorse a Republican,” Kassar said, defending the necessity of the conservative role.

Kassar also published on op/ed in the Times Union defending fusion voting against Democrats who have set up a phony commission to attack third-party political efforts that are a thorn in their side.

“The stakes before the public are enormous. Free speech and the free exchange of ideas would be severely curtailed in New York if Cuomo’s commission isn’t stopped. The Democratic Party machine is working to de-democratize New York for its and Cuomo’s advantage, and it’s doing it while the Legislature is out of session. Alarm bells should be ringing all across the state,” Kassar wrote.

Kassar is keeping the CPNYS relevant in the media landscape as Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s alienates New Yorkers with his tax-and-spend insanity.

ANDREW CUOMO FORCED TO CAVE ON MANDATORY LICENSE PLATE REPLACEMENT

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has shown a relentless desire to squeeze New York taxpayers dry, but he has found out that his power has its limits. He was forced to abandon his scheme this week to force the replacement of license plates that are at least 10 years old following widespread bipartisan resistance.

Cuomo wanted New Yorkers to pay $25 for replacement plates and another $20 to keep their original plate number, regardless of the condition of the plate if it was more than 10 years old. A Siena College Research Institute poll showed that the move was highly unpopular, and Cuomo was forced to drop the proposal.

Previously, Cuomo’s administration had shown they were backtracking on the issue. State DMV Commissioner Mark Schroeder made that clear in a statement from August.

“If the Legislature can agree to a cost effective and practical plate inspection mechanism to determine what plates are still in good operating condition after the 10-year life and thus do not need to be replaced we would welcome the opportunity to be cooperative,” Schroeder said in the statement.

Cuomo’s spokesman made the news official this week that the Governor would be capitulating on this issue.

“As the DMV commissioner said weeks ago, this proposal isn’t going forward as we have committed to working with the Legislature to create a plan that ensures plates are readable by law enforcement and cashless tolling systems and creates a process where plates older than 10 years are inspected and, if still readable, can be kept,” Cuomo spokesman Richard Azzopardi said in a statement.

Although the people have won this battle, the war is never over. Cuomo never stops devising ways to cheat New Yorkers out of their hard-earned money. We must stay ever vigilant to keep this aggressive nanny stater at bay.

Walter E. Williams’ latest column.

The United States Constitution, the brilliant work of our Founding Fathers, was ratified on September 17, 1787 after a long hard-fought battle.  The US Constitution created a government that is the envy of the world; people have emigrated to America since its inception and 232 years after establishing a country run by “we the people” people are still searching for the American Dream crossing our borders with and without permission.  Unfortunately, many who are choosing to break the rules seeking all that our US Constitution offers her citizens are threating the very essence of America’s hope for all humanity.

The United States of America has always welcomed immigrants and we still do, but, the immigrants we welcome should respect the US Constitution and understand that abiding by the rule of law has been the foundation that has made America, in her very short history, the country that has raised the standard of living in every aspect of life, in every corner of this magnificent planet.

Socialism had absolutely nothing to do with creating the hope that America dispenses around the world; and socialism, if adopted by American voters, because they have become unwilling to work for the American Dream and want government to provide it to them, our US Constitution will be shredded by the very people who claim they will make America a utopia where health care is free, education is free, guns are confiscated and dissent is verboten (think of today’s college campuses .)

Celebrate our US Constitution today and every day and work hard to make certain America and the people who choose to live here, abide by the brilliance of our Founding Fathers.

NEVER FORGET: THE 18TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE SEPTEMBER 11TH ATTACKS

This week marked the 18th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, as the nation remembers the day that changed the course of the world forever.

A ceremony was held in Lower Manhattan where people came to pay their respects for the nearly 3,000 men, women and children who lost their lives at the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and United Airways Flight 93. They had six different moments of silence for the victims of the worst attack in American history.

Dignitaries from New York, including America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani, were in attendance for the display. Those close to the victims gave their heartfelt testimony.

“We’re expecting our first grand. So many milestones that he’s missed. Please excuse me if I stumble over any of the names. All respect to our loved ones. This one is kind of hard,” said Lashawn Clarke, who lost her beloved husband Benjamin, a corporate chef who worked in the south tower.

“This year, I did a lot crying. I did. Even though it’s 18 years… can’t stop crying. He was 28. Just went to work,” said Marcia Cohen, whose son Kevin worked for Cantor Fitzgerald and perished in the attacks.

“My brother-in-law, firefighter John Chipura, who exemplified bravery and a strong sense of duty,” said Elizabeth Ronan. “He would be overjoyed that his sister Nancy escaped the north tower. And proud that his brother Gerard, the captain standing behind me, has dedicated his life and career to helping FDNY families in their grief.

Sadly, the first responders are still suffering, as two-thirds of them now suffer from serious health problems. The Victims Compensation Fund is now paid for through 2092 because of recent Congressional action, but they still have to deal with the trauma from that day for the rest of their lives.

“We’re at 204 in just the FDNY alone, and the NYPD’s at 241. So, I mean, the number of first responders that have died post-9/11 is greater,” said Bobby Eustace, who represents the Uniformed Firefighters Association.

The people of America have vowed to never forget, but that doesn’t necessarily apply to the fake news. The New York Times posted an incomprehensible tweet blaming “airplanes” for what happened on that horrible day over 18 years ago.

“18 years have passed since airplanes took aim and brought down the World Trade Center. Today, families will once again gather and grieve at the site where more than 2000 people died,” the Times’ verified Twitter account wrote on the social media site, attempting to re-write history to absolve the Islamic terrorists responsible.

They were eventually forced to delete that tweet following widespread outrage. Real New Yorkers will always remember the need to stay vigilant about the Islamic threat, which is represented in Congress by extremist lawmakers like Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), to make sure another day like this never takes place.

CARL ICAHN ABANDONS NEW YORK, MOVES TO MIAMI

Billionaire investor Carl Icahn is abandoning New York, avoiding the climate of regulatory assault from Gov. Andrew Cuomo, and bolting to Miami, effective next year. He says his employees can join him, or be let go without receiving any severance.

However, Ichan isn’t completely heartless. He is rewarding employees who follow him by assuring them their pay will remain the same and even sweetening the pot with a “relocation benefit” of $50,000 after they move their permanent residence to Florida. They will also be given an “immediate payment” of their annual salary if they are terminated following the big move.

“My employees have always been very important to the company, so I’d like to invite you all to join me in Miami,” Ichan wrote in a letter from May, which was obtained by the New York Post.

If one of his employees opposes the move and stays in New York, Icahn welcomes them to enjoy unemployment benefits because they won’t be getting a dime from him.

“The Company will not contest your unemployment claim,” Icahn’s memo states. “The current maximum weekly Unemployment benefit rate is $450, which you can receive for a total of 26 weeks.”

Icahn says he will miss New York, but had to make the move.

“After spending my entire career in New York, while I certainly do not wish to retire, I’ve decided that at this point in my life I’d like to enjoy a warmer climate and a more casual pace year-round,” he wrote.

Since President Trump’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act went into effect, rich New Yorkers have been bolting to Florida in record numbers. With the Republican governor in office down there, wealth can be adequately protected. That is not so much the case under Gov. Cuomo, who dooms the future of New York with his socialist central planning scheme.

THE SUICIDE EPIDEMIC OF NEW YORK CITY POLICE OFFICERS MUST BE ADDRESSED

 New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has allowed a culture of hatred and distrust toward law enforcement to fester.  Many believe that the suicide epidemic among law enforcement personnel is another unintended consequence of de Blasio’s failed leadership.

Former Mayor Rudy Guiliani, who once cleaned up the town during his incredibly successful years in power, says he is watching it go “full circle” because of de Blasio, and it is heartbreaking watching his beloved city regress back to what it used to be in the 1970s and 80s.

“People take this job to help people and if it’s not appreciated it can have a long-term effect on people,” Guiliani said, adding that the “total disrespect for law and order we have today” is unprecedented.

“Now we don’t have the backing of the politicians. Right this second I have a funny feeling we’re repeating history,” Guiliani added.

“If someone throws water on a cop, that’s an attack on society. If he can do that to a cop, what will he do to you?” he asked.

Police Benevolent Association boss Patrick J. Lynch also blames de Blasio for a “cop-hating” environment that has sprung up as shootings rise, degeneracy spreads like a plague, and “non-violent crimes” such as vandalism, harassment, turnstile-hopping, and drug-dealing are unprosecuted.

New York City cops are now committing suicide at two to three times the rate of normal citizenry. There have already been eight suicides amongst law enforcement this year, as this year may end up defeating the all-time record of 12 suicides in 1994.

“How many people are going to end up dead before something changes?” asked Sergeants Benevolent Association President Ed Mullins.

Unfortunately for New York City, de Blasio is stuck in his ways. This far-left true believer will never turn his back on liberalism while he serves as Mayor, no matter what the human cost may be.
