“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it”-Ronald Reagan
The Emperor’s latest decree: Gov. Cuomo orders restaurants, bars to close at 10 p.m. amid COVID-19 uptick. “Additionally, Cuomo announced a new 10-person cap on parties and other gatherings in private residences, including apartments and houses.” Quick question, will the “Dinner Police” obtain a warrant to enter and count the number of people present in the apartments and houses?
The Emperor has consistently said that N.Y. Health Officials Will Review Any U.S. Approved COVID-19 Vaccine, which makes one wonder why he would delay allowing those who want the vaccine the opportunity to have it. (Did Sen. Holyman ask his permission?) What is worrisome is that Governor Andrew Cuomo did not attend the White House briefings (17 of them) “designed to brief state leaders on the vaccine development and rollout process;” why is it the Governor will withhold the vaccine from those who want it in NY while his health officials review the results? We have not forgotten what his health officials (NYS Dept of Health Commissioner Dr. Howard A. Zucker) recommend in his March, 2020 memo regarding NYS Nursing Homes.
Huge NEWS: Pennsylvania Judge Rules in Favor of Trump Campaign “Further, the judge found that Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar lacked the “statutory authority” to change election law just days before Election Day.”
At least they admitted this: Fox News Admits Wrong Call on Democrat House Seat Projections, but the question remains, was it the only wrong call? (Having Chris Wallace as the moderator of the first debate will never be acknowledged as a “wrong call.”)
It was the headline that caught my attention: New Conservative Investment Fund ‘Boycotts’ Companies with Liberal Agendas as it seems like a great idea. What really caught my attention when I went to read it was the photo of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey in the article. Interesting photo. I guess the devil is in the details. Mr. Dorsey: the election is over, yet, we still cannot post on Twitter and still no explanation was to why we are locked out.
Michael Cook is the editor of MercatorNet.com based in Australia. This is what he wrote about our 2020 Presidential elections: America survived 1824. It can survive 2020. Here is another view, from Australia, of our presidential election from Robert Hutchinson, written on Nov. 5, so it is a little dated, but still interesting how another country sees us.
To say the NYS Bar Associations’ proposal to recommend a state coronavirus vaccine mandate is controversial is an understatement. BTW, when did the NYS Bar Association become part the of NYS Medical Society? The Emperor still wants NYS health officials to approve any vaccine that came about under the Trump Administration.
Tolerance is no longer the Left’s favorite word. The “leader” (AOC) of the Squad posted on her Twitter account: “Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future? I foresee decent probability of many deleted Tweets, writings, photos in the future.” “Archiving those Trump sycophants,” quite the interesting choice of words…not flagged by Twitter… while we are still unable to post anything. The tolerant left no longer exists and they are looking for total control of news outlets and social media.
This is from a trusted friend who asked that people be aware of what is still happening:
This group started w/ GoFundMe, but as is happening to too many conservatives & good guys these days, were de-platformed: https://www.givesendgo.com/GX2V. Their initial results:
Preliminary Numbers:
Ballots cast by voters flagged as ‘Moved’ by NCOA (National Change of Address)
GA: 138,221; PA: 24,475
Voters marked as having requested and been mailed a ballot but not marked as having returned it: GA: 250,253; PA: 481,022
Voters who cast ballots but found to be dead in MFD based on name and full DOB match: GA: 20; PA: 20
Call centers are/will be reaching out to the first group to confirm whether they actually voted, and the second group to see if they requested the ballot and if they returned it. In-house team will check the ‘deceased’ lists for false positives.
We should have these numbers for WI, MI, NV, and AZ tomorrow. Will release as we get them.
We raised $220k on GoFundMe before we were deleted for “Prohibited Content.” None of the money was disbursed to us. This is the same platform that raises money for bail for terrorists. Help us out by 2x’ing what you gave before to help make up what we lost.
We will use the funds to acquire voter data from the seven swing states (and more depending on funding) and cross reference the early/absentee/inactive voters who cast ballots with the Master Death Index and the National Change of Address Database to detect potentially fraudulent ballots.
We will then deploy a call center to track down people who moved or were otherwise inactive and ask that they confirm whether or not they actually cast a ballot. Anyone who says they did not will be provided with an affidavit.
All of our findings will be made public.
This project is being led by Matt Braynard, former director of Data and Strategy for President Trump. Receipts, invoices, and other statements will be provided for all money raised here, and Matt Braynard will personally receive zero dollars.
There are many other instances that show some possible/probable fraud. Despite what the AP, Fox News and other news venues say, this election has many questions that need to be answered. If the votes cast for Joe Biden are legal and legitimate, then he would be the 46th President of the United States. President Donald J. Trump loves this country far too much to let it be lost in a fraudulent election and will not be responsible for a constitutional crisis. As Conrad Black says: No One Knows Who Won the Election. Chris Farrell writes in Gatestone Institute: The Election is Not Over.
There have been 256,584 votes cast on the Conservative Party line as of this writing with 1.3 million votes left to be counted. We have far surpassed the number needed to remain a political party. In fact, we are potentially headed towards record breaking numbers on our party line.
The party has worked hard the last two years to prove our worth and staying power. We are once again playing a major role in the election and re-election of candidates from Long Island, to the North Country and over to the Finger Lakes.
I want to thank our county chairs and their committees for all their hard work this election season. As we approach 300,000 votes for the President, we have much to be proud of.
I intend to keep us moving full steam ahead and continuing to play a major part in electing conservative minded candidates across New York State.
Presidential Election
The President and his legal team have begun to challenge the results in a handful of states where nefarious actions seem to be taking place.
We have heard individual accounts of irregularities in Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia that are concerning. As the proper authorities investigate and look into allegations it is important that our process remain transparent.
It is unconscionable to me that Republican poll monitors in Pennsylvania have not been granted access to polling sites to oversee the voting process and counting. This is, at the very least, an abuse of power and unlawful. What’s going on in these poll sites that they don’t want Republicans to see? Who knows, but the state parties and Trump campaign are taking the proper steps to make sure all legal votes are counted.
The situation is fluid and changing by the hour. We may not know the results for a few more days, but we must demand a clean and fair election process.
There is still a path to re-election for the President and it is imperative, no matter who the winner ultimately is, that we get to the bottom of fraud allegations to ensure the will of the people is done.
Congressional Races
New York Conservative/Republicans had a good night as two seats were flipped by two incredible female candidates, a trend we saw nationally.
Nicole Malliotakis flipped New York’s 11th district, while Claudia Tenney flipped the 22nd districts in dramatic fashion. Both races were considered “toss ups” nationally.
Additionally, Andrew Garbarino held the seat of the retiring Peter King and we kept every other Conservative/Republican seat in the state.
I want to congratulate Lee Zeldin, Elise Stefanik, Tom Reed, Chris Jacobs, and John Katko on their wins. We have an incredibly hardworking slate of Representatives and we’re excited to be adding three great new members in Malliotakis, Garbarino, and Tenney.
I also want to congratulate Chele Farley in the 18th district and George Santos in the 3rd district, and Liz Joy in the 20th district who all ran incredible races against large odds and did outstanding jobs. The Farley and Santos races will come down to the counting of paper ballots. Regardless, I look forward to seeing what’s next for them.
New York Senate and Assembly Seats
Democrats failed to win any State House across the country while losing control of two. Here in New York, that trend continued, while not at the level needed to flip the Senate, we made very meaningful gains.
We made significant movement and prevented the Democrats from gaining a super majority. As it stands, we are currently ahead in 7 races that would be flips, but we are still awaiting the absentee ballot results which will be another 4 or 5 days. I am confident that we will ultimately see gains in the State Senate.
We also made gains in the Assembly. We currently have the lead in 11 seats, but like the Senate races, we are waiting for absentee results. I am confident we will flip between 4 and 6 seats. We have continued to chip away at the Assembly Democrats super majority.
I am encouraged by these results and believe we can continue to elect more good candidates in next year’s local city, town and village races. 2022 is also right around the corner and the Presidents numbers show we can do very well in statewide races. I look forward to building on this momentum.
Thank you to all who voted on the Conservative Party line. As noted in our press release on Election Day, we will continue to be a legal political party in New York. While there are still ballots to be counted, there is no doubt that we will remain a strong political organization. ABC has a map showing how “red” New York is with very little blue counties, they however, have the population that gravitates to the progressive movement. There is reason to have hope even in New York City, since there are still strong pockets of “red” there as indicated by the awesome win by Nicole Malliotakis: Malliotakis Rides Law and Order Issue to Big Win in NY-11.
The Hill writes about Winners and losers from 2020’s election. (Knowing the Hill expected a “blue wave” this must have been a difficult assessment to explain; even more difficult for Speaker Pelosi to explain.)

Statement by Conservative Party Chairman Kassar on the Party’s Maintaining Its Legal Status
Brooklyn, NY – Chairman Gerard Kassar thanked the voters throughout New York State for making a statement by voting for President Donald J. Trump on the Conservative Party Line.
The Conservative Party has maintained its status as an official political organization in this first test of the law written and signed by Governor Cuomo, that attempts to eliminate third parties in New York State. The new law requires political parties to reach 130,000 votes or 2% of the total vote cast for President. The new law also subjects political parties to the same requirement in gubernatorial election years.
Chairman Kassar said “New Yorkers who chose to vote on the Conservative Line are making a statement that fiscal responsibility, law and order, less government involvement, and adherence to the values of our Founding Fathers, is what makes America the greatest nation in the world; knowing that, I was certain we would maintain our official status.”
The New York State Conservative Party is the third largest political party in New York State with over 150,000 members. In 2016 President Trump received 292,392 votes on the Conservative Party line.
Brace yourselves. Pandemic’s Cost in New York: $63 Billion (loss in revenue). And the pandemic is still with us costing us more. Will Governor Cuomo and the state Legislature be strong enough to cut spending? We know that Democrats only know how to increase taxes; so, make the right choice when you vote tomorrow. Vote on the Conservative Party line, especially for President. Your vote for President on the Conservative Party line will allow us to be your voice as budget negotiations begin in earnest after the elections.
The 50th Anniversary of James L. Buckley’s election as a United States Senator
Fifty years ago, the still emerging New York State Conservative Party shocked the political world when James L. Buckley ran only on the Conservative Party line and won a seat in the U.S. Senate! The pundits scoffed at the idea, but, James Buckley, with his charisma and common-sense ideas, ignited a conservative movement in New York that brought together the young, the old, the rich and the working man, that quite frankly, has been difficult to duplicate. A lot has changed in the 50 years that have passed since the excitement of the Buckley win; but this is certain, the principles, values, and dedication that ignited that movement are still as strong as ever within the membership of the Conservative Party and those who support the conservative cause in this deep blue state that seems, on the surface, to have lost its ability to unite and reestablish what brought so many to the hope of Ellis Island. Lady Liberty’s torch still burns bright; but today, too many believe its flame comes from government, not the hard work of its citizens.
James L. Buckley’s appeal to the youth had a lot to do with the times; he challenged the establishment – yes it was liberal then also — his appeal to the working class was his staunch support of reducing taxes and spending as well as restraints on regulations and bureaucracy. Sen. Buckley was unashamed to stand up for life, for being a conservationist before it was fashionable, and he had a plan to win in Vietnam and to do it quickly. James L. Buckley was and will always be dedicated to the American citizenry and in some ways like President Trump, who has the same remarkable ability to unite those who revere the United States of America.
We thank Judge Buckley (D. C. Circuit Court of Appeals) for taking up the cause in 1970; we thank him for believing in the Conservative Party. We salute his statesmanship and celebrate the 50th anniversary of his election to the United States Senate and for being an example for all to emulate.
Election 2020
With just four days remaining, President Trump could be on the path to a familiar looking victory.
While the President is tirelessly traveling the United States campaigning vigorously in battleground states, Joe Biden spends very little time outside of his Delaware home. The candidates schedule the last few weeks are just another indicator that Joe Biden is not physically fit to be this country’s Commander-in-Chief.
President Trump often does 4-5 public rallies per day, speaking to crowds of thousands. Biden does 4-5 public rallies per week, speaking to crowds of dozens, sometimes tens.
What does this mean? We won’t know until late November 3, but what we do know is the momentum and enthusiasm is squarely with President Trump; much like it was in the final days in 2016.
There are pockets of very good news, particularly in the swing state of Florida where it’s biggest county, Miami-Dade is having an unexpected strong showing of Republicans voting. Hillary Clinton won the county by 29 points in 2016, but still lost the state to then candidate Donald Trump. Now, the President looks poised to cut into that advantage which would be a huge development in the must win state of Florida.
The Most Important Election of Our Lifetime
You’ve heard it before, but in 2020 it is true, now more than ever. There are two philosophical differences on the ballot.
The first is a message of doom and gloom. Government forced shutdowns of the economy. It makes it tougher for corporations, the job creators, to do business, it aims to defund, and in some cases, disband the police. It aims to tax you for their agendas, such as the multi trillion-dollar Green New Deal. It aims to pack the Supreme Court, all because they lost the 2016 election and thus had no ability to fill vacancies. Instead, Democrats want to add Justices. It wants Puerto Rico and D.C. statehood for nothing more than to add 4 democratic Senators and additional House of Representative members. Remember, Democrats didn’t care about Puerto Rico in the 1990’s when the Clinton administration stripped the U.S. Territory of their ability to offer incentive to pharmaceutical companies to do business on the Island. Puerto Rico remains in a recession to this day. It aims to eliminate fracking, ban oil, and strip America of our energy independence, and it aims to have us rejoin trade deals that shipped Rust Belt jobs to Mexico and China.
The other is a message of hope. A message that the cure can’t be worse than the sickness itself. It lets Americans safely get back to work to provide for their families. It aims to keep both small and big business alive and thriving, something they could not survive if forced to close again. It gets children safely back to school. It keeps manufacturing jobs in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. It keeps the farming industry alive and well in Wisconsin, and it tells Floridians that the atrocities faced just 90 miles south in Cuba, will never happen in the Sunshine State or anywhere else. It is a message of law and order that protects every citizens of this country, but doesn’t kowtow to a violent mob looking to loot and destroy businesses.
There are two very different choices on the ballot. I strongly encourage you to choose the policies that have worked to bring jobs back, lowers the unemployment rate to historic lows and made the American economy the envy of the world.
VOTE ROW C
Shortly after I took over as State Chairman, Governor Cuomo, angry with the Working Families Party moved to change state law, making it more difficult for third parties to exist. The Governor and legislature tripled the minimum number of votes required to maintain legal party status.
We are a party with a proud history, we have elected a U.S. Senator on our line alone and we continue to be the margin of victory for candidates around the state of New York. We are a small party, but we play a major role in getting conservative republicans elected.
We took the Governor to court and won the right to continue as a party, but under the new rules we must get between 160,000 to 170,000 votes cast on our Conservative Party line for President.
In 2016, the party received 292,392 votes on the Conservative line. This year we hope to surpass 300,000, sending a clear message to Governor Cuomo that New Yorker’s want a choice.
Please remember to grab a family member, friend or neighbor and vote for President Trump on the Conservative Party line.
From Intellectual Conservative: “That’s why this election seems so important. No longer are we battling for one party or the other; we are battling to determine the ideology which America will hold in the years ahead.” Internal Chaos Caused Philly’s ‘Peaceful Protests’. “Yes, we must go to the polls. …we must also be determined to live our own lives by the morals and virtue which once made this nation great.”
Emperor Cuomo is seriously considering legalizing marijuana to bring in tax dollars; it would be a major error of judgement to do so. The True Cost of Marijuana: A Colorado Town That Went All-In. While many in Pueblo supported (and still support) the initiative; many are also very concerned about the health care costs and the inability to have a good employment rate. The article gives both sides a fair hearing; what matters is the assessment of the long-term associated with the legalization of marijuana in your home town. (CPNYS is firmly opposed to the legalization of an DEA Schedule 1 drug.)
By the way, we are still silenced on @Twitter! Still no response to our emails as to why, nothing. Just ignoring us as if we, our voices, are non-existence, but lets the leftist Tweeters have freedom of speech. When did Twitter become the arbiter of the First Amendment? Hmmm, is Twitter trying to portray that they are being fair: Twitter censors Obama’s former attorney general over voting tweets. Not really, they only slapped him with a waring; they silenced us.
Lance Morrow’s insight into the politics of today is food for thought for all who truly care about being Americans.
Wow! Seriously? Nicolle Wallace erupts over Peggy Noonan: Conservative white women should keep ‘mouth shut’ This is the problem in todays’ society, the left really does believe that they are the only ones allowed to have an opinion. Nicolle Wallace, how would you like it if I tell you to keep your mouth shut? Grow up, Nicolle, learn to have a civil discussion about differences!
Wow. The former VP learned a lot at Obama and Michelle’s side, unfortunately, what he learned is not what the leader of the free world should believe about the country he wants to become the president of: Biden faces backlash for saying ‘America was an idea’ that ‘we’ve never lived up to’. It is disgraceful that he does not appreciate that we are fortunate to live in the greatest country in the world. “Never lived up to?” America has achieved more in its very short history than any other country; we have raised the standard of living, invented untold numbers of items that have helped the universe, corrected our mistakes, explored space, yet, the man who wants to lead this great country, says America was an idea that we’ve never lived up to. Shame on you, Joe Biden, shame on you.
Townhall.com is a right-leaning site that reports on the news. The following 3 headlines for today’s update are informing us what is going on in the mainstream media. I am not liking to the articles, just amazed at how deeply disturbed the left is. 1) NYT Op-Ed: We May Need ‘International Intervention’ Because of Trump; 2) Joe Scarborough Accuses Trump of Wanting to Kill Journalists ‘If He Could Get Away with It’ and 3) ‘Vanity Fair’ Warns ACB Will ‘Execute’ Women for Getting Abortions. Granted, headlines are written to grab one’s attention, but unfortunately in todays’ society people fail to read the article and tend to believe that what they see in the headline is gospel.
