Life with Mamdani

NYC taxpayers to shell out $200K for woke groups to study slavery reparations  

If Joy Reid ain't happy...

. . . "Councilwoman Joann Ariola (R-Queens) also ripped the plan, saying “how are we even gauging the criteria for eligibility on this?”

“New York banned slavery in 1827,” she said. “Are we going to do a genealogy search for only people who can trace their ancestry back to that time?

“Is the city going to pay for the descendants of anyone who was ever enslaved? If my Sicilian ancestors were enslaved in the Middle Ages, does that make me eligible for the study? This is truly ridiculous political theater, and a total waste of taxpayer money.” . . .

Mamdani Is Making Democrats’ Communist Fantasies Come True 

  "Mamdani is openly embracing Marxism and staffing his administration with people hostile to the fundamental principles of the republic.

. . . "Take, for example, how the Biden administration issued an unconstitutional moratorium on residential evictions. During the height of the pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) imposed a nationwide moratorium on evictions. Then-President Joe Biden extended the moratorium before the Supreme Court struck it down 6-3. The Supreme Court previously ruled the CDC “exceeded its existing statutory authority” by issuing the moratorium in the first place.

"That was the “warmth of collectivism” in practice: The property belonging to the landlord was treated not as the fruit of his labor, protected by right, but as a resource the state could collectively take control of in the name of a collective emergency." . . .

And so it begins...Recall Mamdani

  . . . New York does not provide for recall elections of mayors. Removal from office must be done from Albany, or by a “committee on inability” made up of five local officials. If enough pressure from voters is placed on the right points, the city might be eventually liberated from the 1.1 million New Yorkers who voted to make turn it into a pre-reunification East Berlin dump blistered by decay and scarcity. It’s a longshot. Hardly likely. Yet it’s an effort that has to start somewhere, and soon.

Communism’s 45 Goals for America

. . . "So how did the Soviets go about this?  They sought to weaken the United States internally by slowly turning individual Americans away from a country governed as a constitutional republic to one with a more sympathetic view of communism.  That way, the Soviet Union believed they could win the Cold War without open warfare." . . . 

. . . "Mamdani isn’t trying to cloak collectivism in the guise of a temporary response to a pandemic or some other crisis; he is openly rejecting individualism and staffing his administration with people hostile to the fundamental principles of the republic. In that sense, Mamdani is proof of where the Democrat Party truly stands." . . .  More at The Federalist...
