The NY Post editorial board opines on Mayor de Blasio’s whine. 

“New York’s public-sector unions are eager to lock in members who might flee if an expected US Supreme Court ruling gives them the right to escape. And state Senate Republicans may play along.”  This quote is from another editorial in the NY Post today, encouraging  Senate Republicans to reject  the scheme to trap workers in public sector unions.  The Conservative Party agrees that the Alcantara Bill must not be enacted.

When will legislators stop wasting time introducing “Nanny State” legislation?  I sometimes think they purposely try to dumb down the electorate just to stay in elective office. 

Really Governor?  You flatter yourself.  Cuomo fears Russian interference in governor’s race

Citizens of our great nation have a unique privilege in choosing who their government officials are, a responsibility, in fact, to vote.  Early voting is not the answer to get more citizens to vote; in fact, early voting can lead to fraud, not knowing all of the facts about candidates and increased costs.  This CNY election boss thinks our lifestyle in the 21st century makes voting a “burden” and thinks there should be 12 days set aside for early voting.  He is wrong and refuses to look at the facts that disprove his theory. 

Ben Shapiro exposes a Washington Post columnist who pens FRIGHTENING defense of Marxism: ‘It’s Time to Give Socialism A Try.’

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) elected in 2016 was California’s Attorney General prior to becoming California’s Junior Senator.  Knowing her background, one would think she follows Supreme Court decisions and the effect they have on America.  This being said, it makes her appearance on MSNBC yesterday, slamming AG Jeff Session’s speech on California ignoring the nation’s immigration laws and likening it to nullification all the more puzzling.  Like it or not, an Obama-Administration Precedent May Doom California’s Effort to Make Itself a ‘Sanctuary State’, writes David French in National Review on line.  Mr. French does not totally agree that the US Supreme Court’s decision will  or should be upheld in the current case, but, as he notes, conservatives would find it sweet if California lost because of Obama’s efforts.

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand has abandoned all pretenses of being a moderate democrat and aligns herself with progressive causes at Working Families Party rally.  It is time for her career as a Senator ends.   Sen. Gillibrand has latched on to the #metoo crowd, yet fails to do all that she can to end a cult in her own backyard.    NXIVM is a secret group that is accused of branding women, one would think that since Sen. Gillibrand’s father worked for and was ultimately sued by the group,   (when he found out about troubling legal, possibly criminal matters, he chose to discontinue his work) it would be an organization that she would have some knowledge of and ability to investigate – if not herself – at the very least to call for a thorough investigation by some of her colleagues.  There are so many questions as to how NXIVM continues when victims have cried out for help.

Weekly Wrap-Up

Are we at a turning point on guns? Don’t believe the hype… we’ve tried gun control before and it hasn’t worked, but the Democrats are going for broke and refusing to let this crisis go to waste.

Are you concerned that Congress will pass new gun control measures that undermine the Second Amendment? That’s the first question in our new Weekly Poll.

In the gun debate we’ve seen everything from bad ideas to terrible ideas to nonsensical ideas, and conservatives must admit that the President hasn’t helped the cause, though he seems to be walking back some of his more alarming rhetoric.

How important is it to you for President Trump to keep his campaign promises to protect the Second Amendment? That’s the second question in our new Weekly Poll.

Dishonest, exploitative, insulting… the media’s coverage of the gun debate has been predictably dreadful. Which word do you think best sums it up? That’s the third question in our new Weekly Poll.

In other news, the economy continues to roar, and Americans everywhere are feeling the effects – but will a trade war sabotage all this progress?

George J. Marlin opines  in Newsmax:   Andrew Repeating Father Mario’s Mistakes on NY Budget.  Mr. Marlin reminds us that the governor is employing fiscal slight of hand shenanigans that include “shifting expenditures to capital project funds, which is outside the scope of state operating funds: moving expenditures off budget to a public authority or an off-budget fund or account; specifically, excluding certain spending from the calculated growth of state operating funds; restructuring programs such that the cost is reflected on the revenue side of the ledger rather than as spending; deferring expenditures to future years; and others.”

Daily Update

You will seldom find the Conservative Party praising the New York Times, however, this article deserves to be read and circulated as it shows Governor Andrew Cuomo for what he is — a man who plays with words – trying to make you think you are wrong and he is right.  The NY Times article points out how this Administration choses to interpret an Executive Order to their financial advantage.  Governor Andrew Cuomo is all about Governor Andrew Cuomo with little or no regard for New York’s citizens – despite the flowery empty words he uses when addressing the ideological groups, he meets with.

Weekly Wrap-Up

There is one single person to blame for this week’s shooting in Florida – the shooter.  That simple fact has been left out of the mass media’s dishonest coverage that is driven by a gun control agenda and disinformation rather than any facts. 

Let us never forget the tales of heroism and quick thinking that saved lives – and let us never allow the left to bully us for praying, which is now unbelievably under attack.

Vice President Pence has fired back at the media’s religious bigots, and Rep. Steve Scalise and Sen. Marco Rubio are taking a principled stand against liberals trying to exploit tragedy.  I am thankful for their leadership. 

Overall, how would you describe the media’s coverage of gun control? That’s the first question in our new Weekly Poll.

Unfortunately, the gun control issue is not the only example of media malpractice – far from it.  From journalists’ love affair with North Korea to the fake news of Russian collusion to cover-ups of government corruption and particularly Clinton, Inc. malfeasance, the media is falling down on the job. 

What do you think has been the most awful recent example of the news media bias and dishonesty? That’s the second question in our new Weekly Poll. 

Speaking of dishonesty, as well as recklessness, partisanship and politically ambitious – would you suspect I’m referencing Andrew Cuomo or Bill de Blasio? Both, it turns out – the Governor and the Mayor are on their worst behavior, and New York suffers as a result.  

I’ll make this the third and final question of our new Weekly Poll: Who is MORE dishonest, untrustworthy and politically calculating – Cuomo or de Blasio? 

As President’s Day nears, let’s remember some truly outstanding leaders like Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Reagan – and yes, let’s pray for more like them.

Have a great weekend!

Daily Update

President Donald J. Trump on the tragedy in Florida yesterday.

It appears evident that the killer had some compelling mental problems that many were aware of.   True mental problems; certainly not what Joy Behar considers a mental illness.  Ms. Behar recently linked VP Pence Christianity to mental illnessan insult to the VP and all Christians.  It is disheartening that Ms. Behar would not understand what mental illness is – and be so cavalier in disrespecting a religion.  When tragedies happen, most people turn to God and pray for the victims, their families, and survivors.  Perhaps more prayers when there is not tragedy would help.  It would also help if America returned to its Judeo-Christian legacy.

Daily Update

The Daily Signal, like most conservatives, raises concerns regarding President Trump’s proposed budget.  Romina Boccia, deputy director of the Thomas A. Roe Institute at The Heritage Foundation, called the budget a “mixed bag.”  Ms. Boccia said this, “The president’s budget makes progress by investing in the military, eliminating numerous ineffective agencies and programs, and beginning the process of welfare and entitlement reform. However, the budget fails to balance, ever, and does not sufficiently move the country away from its currently unsustainable fiscal path.”   Time will tell what happens with his proposal. PBS is naturally upset, but cutting PBS from the budget, makes many conservatives cheer.
