"My guess is his commitment to Marxism is far greater than his commitment to Islam, but maybe not. Maybe he will try to turn NYC into a Muslim Mecca. It wouldn't surprise me." . . .
"New York City, of course, recently elected a "Marxist Muslim" as mayor of the city. How much of either (Marxism or Islam) Zohran Mamdani will be able to impose upon the city is yet to be determined, but that is what he calls himself. Marxism, as I shall demonstrate, is an all-encompassing world philosophy, but its main emphasis is on economics—socialism. Let's look at what the people of New York City have to look forward to if Mamdani gets his Marxist way.
The Abolition of Private Property
"The theory of Communism may be summed up in one sentence: Abolish all private property." It's the first point of Marx's "Communist Manifesto," and Mamdani said he believes it. Of course, what Marx and communists actually mean is "private property for me, but not for thee." Do you think Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-VT) is going to sacrifice his three houses, or Ben and Jerry will give their land back to Native Americans?
"Communism always has a "ruling class" ("nomenklatura"), and they do just fine, economically, thank you very much, with their lovely dachas in the countryside and new cars the peasants could never afford. Abolition of private property might be difficult for Mamdani in rich New York, but we'll see how he does.
The Destruction of Religion
"My object is to dethrone God and destroy capitalism." "Communism begins where atheism begins." "The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion." All these quotes are from Marx and present an interesting paradox for Mamdani, supposedly a devout Muslim. Is Allah pleased with Marx's denunciation of a God? Does Mamdani believe in Islam and Marxian economics? How is he going to divide it up? My guess is his commitment to Marxism is far greater than his commitment to Islam, but maybe not. Maybe he will try to turn NYC into a Muslim Mecca. It wouldn't surprise me." . . .
Business Mogul ABANDONS New York Over Zohran Mamdani As Residents FLEE to Red States! "New York City is officially in trouble. As Zohran Mamdani prepares to take over as the next mayor, major businesses are already pulling out, canceling expansion plans, and warning that NYC is becoming completely hostile to investment. And they’re not alone — longtime residents are packing up and heading straight to red states in search of lower taxes, safer streets, and real economic opportunity."
However, in fact, this is an old story going back to 2023 when the connections between then CIA Director William Burns, Kathryn Ruemmler and Jeffrey Epstein were previously released to the public {SEE HERE}. However, amid the new effort to stir up friction, the Ruemmler-Epstein emails are being talked about again. Example Below:
"As noted before by the Wall Street Journal, “Kathryn Ruemmler, a White House counsel under President Barack Obama, had dozens of meetings with Epstein in the years after her White House service and before she became a top lawyer at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. He also planned for her to join a 2015 trip to Paris and a 2017 visit to Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean.”
The email above is from August 2018, approximately six months after Ruemmler, who represented former National Security Advisor Susan Rice, lied to Senate Judiciary Committee about Rice’s knowledge of the FBI opening an investigation of President Trump in 2016.
Wall Street Journal 2023 – […] The documents show that Epstein appeared to know some of his guests well. He asked for avocado sushi rolls to be on hand when meeting with Ms. Ruemmler, according to the documents. He visited apartments she was considering buying. In October 2014, Epstein knew her travel plans and told an assistant to look into her flight. “See if there is a first-class seat,” he wrote, “if so upgrade her.”
[…] Epstein and his staff discussed whether Ms. Ruemmler, now 52, would be uncomfortable with the presence of young women who worked as assistants and staffers at the townhouse, the documents show. Women emailed Epstein on two occasions to ask if they should avoid the home while Ms. Ruemmler was there. Epstein told one of the women he didn’t want her around, and another that it wasn’t a problem, the documents show.
Ms. Ruemmler didn’t see anything that would lead her to be concerned at the townhouse and didn’t express any concern, the Goldman spokesman said.
[…] Over the next few years, Ms. Ruemmler, then a partner specializing in white-collar defense at Latham & Watkins, had more than three dozen appointments with Epstein, including for lunches and dinners." . . .
. . . "If Epstein had any dirt on President Trump, Kathryn Ruemmler would be the primary person who would use that information against Donald Trump politically, especially because of Ruemmler’s relationship with President Obama and Susan Rice. If there was anything against Trump in the Epstein mess, it would have been deployed to the benefit of Hillary Clinton in 2016."...
"Jim Leonard, a New Jersey-based defense attorney whose clients have included "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Teresa Giudice, called Kohberger's $28,000 in donations "offensive on every level" but said the victims' families could sue him civilly to block him from profiting off the crime." . . .
"A specific breakdown showing the source of the funding was not released by the court. Kohberger's parents declared bankruptcy twice previously, in the mid-1990s and again in 2010, court records show." . . ."Hippler said some of the additional funds were outside the terms of the plea deal, but he ordered Kohberger to pay Goncalves' parents and Mogen's mother roughly $3,000 to split — $1,420 to the Goncalves family and $1,587.79 to Karen Laramie. The sums also carry a 9.125% annual interest rate."He also found that Kohberger's defense team was wrong about their claim that he would not be able to profit from future media deals under Idaho's version of the "Son of Sam" law, which requires him to put any earnings in an escrow account so that the victims' families have a chance to collect restitution or damages before he can profit."
Michelle Obama doesn’t know what unfair scrutiny is. She wouldn’t be able to tolerate a fraction of the scrutiny that the Trump family had to endure daily. Reporters attacked Melania for everything from her shoes to her accent.
"Would you believe that in the entirety of human history, no one has been oppressed as much as Michelle Obama? It’s true. Whenever she gets in front of a microphone, she can’t help but complain about how unfairly she’s been treated, how terrible white people are, or how racist our country is. She paints herself as chronically oppressed, endlessly scrutinized, and forever burdened by a country that never treated her fairly. I know it must not be easy having fame, fortune, a bunch of multimillion-dollar homes, and all that. It must be really, really brutal. The routine has become predictable, and her latest appearances only reinforce the sense that she carries a deep resentment toward white America, while insisting she’s the one who never got a fair shake.
"Last month, in an interview with ABC’s Robin Roberts to promote her new book, she literally had the gall to claim that people unfairly scrutinized her while she was in the White House. Roberts began by quoting Michelle’s own words.
“ 'You said, ‘We were all too aware that as the first black couple, we couldn’t afford any missteps.’ And you also say that as a black woman, ‘I was under a particularly white hot glare.’ Did you feel that?”
“ 'For sure,” Michelle replied. “You can’t afford to get anything wrong because you didn’t get the, and at least until the country got to know us, we didn’t get the grace that I think some other families have gotten.”
"Anyone who lived through the Obama years remembers the media environment. The media swooned over Barack’s speeches and treated Michelle like a cross between a fashion icon and a national therapist. Editors placed them on magazine covers every time they could justify it. Journalists fawned over Barack’s wardrobe, his aura, and even the crease in his pants, all while ignoring scandal after scandal after scandal. But, yeah, sure, let’s talk about how they were held to some fantasy standard that no first couple ever had to meet before or since."... More....
It is such an injustice if people like Michelle have to pay the price for actions of people like these:
Michelle Obama Lashes Out At White People During Interview For New Book
“Let me explain something to white people!” Obama said.
“ 'Our hair comes out of our head naturally in a curly pattern, so when we’re straightening it to follow your beauty standards, we are trapped by the straightness!” she claimed.
"She continued to list a slew of restrictions she believed black people faced.
“That’s why so many of us can’t swim!” Obama said.
“ 'And we run away from the water — people won’t go to the gym, because we’re trying to keep our hair straight for y’all. It is exhausting, and it’s so expensive and it takes up so much time!” . . .
UPDATE: Michelle Obama Gets Brutally Mocked for Wacky Remark
Michelle Obama sent the Internet into hysterics on Friday night with an incredibly bizarre racial rant during an interview. . . .

"Using a standard economic model, researchers estimated the effect of tariff shocks on inflation and unemployment. A roughly 4 percentage point increase in average tariffs lowered inflation by about 2 percentage points while raising unemployment by about 1 percentage point, they found."
"From Michelle’s “Vogue” covers to her lavish estates, Victor Davis Hanson questioned the victimhood narrative being perpetuated by America's most privileged elites on last week’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”
“You did whatever you wanted, and yet now you [complain], and now you're worth probably over a hundred million dollars.-- Life is so hard on you because you have a beach estate in Hawaii that you built. Contrary to many environmental regulations, you have an abode on Martha's Vineyard. So both of you have nothing to complain about. There are millions of people in America—Indian, Hispanic, Black, and White—who would die to have the opportunities that you have.--There are ups, and there are downs, and we've all suffered ups and downs. DEI—that's why it's such a pernicious ideology, because you can translate any personal unhappiness into a cosmic ism or ology against you; on this Marxist binary you're on.”Everything this man does makes beautiful California a worse state to live in.

. . . "He has a way of saying a lot without saying anything.
"In January, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) cited years of intentional, politics-driven mismanagement as the reason wildfires are so extreme in the state:
California, the most-taxed state in the nation, boasts unparalleled financial resources. Yet, despite its wealth, the state continues to fail its residents by neglecting the most basic measures needed to protect them from devastating wildfires. Poor water management, bureaucratic resistance to wildfire remediation efforts, and misplaced spending priorities have left Californians vulnerable to disasters that are both predictable and preventable.
With the largest economy of any U.S. state, California has no shortage of financial resources. In 2024, Governor Gavin Newsom announced an unexpected $16.5 billion budget surplus. Yet, instead of prioritizing wildfire prevention, the administration cut the CAL FIRE resource management budget by 50%, reducing funding for critical forest and wildfire resilience programs. This shortfall forces firefighters to contend with overgrown forests and unchecked underbrush that act as kindling for the state’s now-annual infernos.
"Additionally, California politicians, rather than climate change, have made it difficult for insurance companies to raise rates in response to natural disasters — the same ones that Democrats, such as Gavin Newsom, exacerbate by failing to implement basic wildfire mitigation measures. Even the state insurance plan is feeling the strain.". . . More...
