"Hey, New York, Had Enough Of Your New Mayor Yet?" * (Below)

Here it comes, New York! There have been 22 major nations that have declared themselves as “socialist,” or “Marxist,” or “communist” in modern history. All of them have failed. Those that struggle on have adopted some version of capitalism to keep their socialist hells alive. This is the future New York chose when it elected Mamdani. Domestic intifada and socialism."

CANCELED: Muslim-led plans for EPIC City in Texas have been shut down after intervention from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

State officials raised legal and constitutional concerns, making it clear that any development operating outside U.S. law would not be permitted.

ZOHRAN MAMDANI: “My anti-Semitic wife accidentally illustrated a book calling Jews ‘cockroaches’”

"Jillian Michaels reveals yet another example of NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani trying to make excuses for his wife’s virulent Jew-hatred." (Language)   

Anti-Israel activist who called Jews 'cockroaches' has multiple links to Mamdani family

. . . “Reports show that Rama Duwaji, the First Lady of New York City, chose to illustrate and attach her name to a project by a woman who has a long history of celebrating terror and demonizing Jews, including calling the Hamas-led Oct. 7 attacks ‘a spectacular moment’ and calling Israel a ‘demonic parasite,’ and a litany of vile, antisemitic posts,” said the Anti-Defamation League in a statement Monday.

“Collaborating on a project with Susan Abulhawa goes beyond First Lady Duwaji’s deeply troubling liking of pro-October 7 posts and demonstrates a troubling pattern." . . .

*Hey, New York, Had Enough Of Your New Mayor Yet? – Issues & Insights

"A little more than two months ago, when Zohran Mamdani was still in his first days as New York City’s boy mayor, we suggested that he should be driven from office. It was that bad. Has the situation improved since then? No, it’s only become worse.

"Let’s start off with the mayor hosting a Ramadan iftar dinner on March 11 at City Hall, where he was joined by Muslim city workers.

"Well, isn’t that the prerogative of the mayor? After all, Christian elected officials have used government buildings for prayers and faith-based observances since the beginning of the republic.

"But was this just devout Muslims practicing their religion? Or something more? Such as a public embrace of Islamism, which Center for Renewing America fellow Nathan Pinkoski describes “is best understood as a political ideology, a global project that aims to subordinate all aspects of government and civil society to Islam.”

"Somali-born author and one-time Dutch lawmaker Ayaan Hirsi Ali, herself a former Muslim, has noted that “political Islam implies a constitutional order fundamentally incompatible with the U.S. Constitution and with the ‘constitution of liberty’ that is the foundation of the American way of life.”

"With that as background, understand that one of Mamdani’s “guests” apparently flashed an ISIS one-finger salute. In case you’ve been in a state of suspended animation for the last 25 years, ISIS is a terrorist group and a sworn enemy of the U.S." . . . More...

The Parents of Charlie Kirk’s Prodigal Assassin

 RealClearPolitics 

 This family summoned their prodigal son home. While we rightfully think of their son as moral monster, they still had familial claim and power over him. And with it, they brought him home and then to justice.

"Charlie Kirk’s murderer came from somewhere. We all do.

"Since the “In the beginning …” times, our species has wrestled with the fundamental logic – and perceived unfairness – of holding parents responsible for the sins of their children. Or the other way around. In the Old Testament book of Ezekiel, the prophet makes this explicit:

"The person who sins will die. A son will not suffer the punishment for the father’s guilt, nor will a father suffer the punishment for the son’s guilt; the righteousness of the righteous will be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself.

Yet we mortals struggle with this idea. It’s a matter of self-preservation. The unifying idea is that we must bear some responsibility for the behavior of our own kids. Our kids are reflections of us because we put our stamp on them. Functional societies have a justifiable fear of the ripple effects of other people’s bad parenting.

"Healthy families are civilization’s frontline schoolhouse of needed humans – producers of good men and women, and citizens. Bad parents can easily replicate themselves, and often do. It is a rare and beautiful testament to the enduring nature of the good to see exceptions to the rule.

"The inverse happens, too. I have met a many a good parent of a bad kid – a bad seed who grows up to be a bad adult. Or a good kid who leaves the home for school, falls in with the wrong crowd, and rejects root and branch the ways of his family.

"Modern parents know at some point we must give our offspring over to a hard and secular world outside the home threshold, a world that undermines good parenting at every turn. A school system that inverts the established, time-tested ways for purposes of political indoctrination. A culture that has lost any sense of moral and natural limits. An algorithmic media that is set on setting people into warring tribes with desensitized, brutish ways.

"Charlie Kirk’s assassin was born and raised in southwestern Utah. Mormon territory. He was the son of a mother and father who raised kids in the Mormon way, which creates exemplary fruits that are missionaries to the world. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints – its formal name – instills family loyalty, stewardship, tolerance, sobriety, hard work, and sharing. They tithe. They contribute. They are impressive people." . . . More...
