It comes as Mayor Adams continues to struggle with the 107,000 migrants
New York with 2% of US population only has 1.3% of the 7.5 million illegals the Democrats welcomed in the last 2.5 years. They must welcome another 50,000 just to reach the national average.

My understanding is that Staten Island tends to be a bit more conservative than the rest of NYC. It could be that some of these people did NOT vote for Eric Adams and his sanctuary city mentality.

Well, Chris, you must realize, to some of the commenters on the Ukraine matter, Ukrainian lives are the only ones that matter at all.

Because with $6.3 trillion spending the Feds can only spend money on one thing at a time. Why are we sending money to Hawaii when old folks need V1agra here?

#11 My point was: they don't care about Ukrainian lives - only about the damage these Ukrainians can do to Russia.
Maybe not even about the damage to Russia but about not having to admit their miscalculation. They assumed that sactions will lead to Russian collapse. Instead sanctions are destroying German economy. And Germany is the economic basis of EU.
In any case, they're willing to fight to the last Ukrainian.

Behind all the clueless priorities, behind all the graft, behind all the ego-maniacal children playing at Game of Thrones, the massive illegal immigration that will never be assimilated into what was traditional American culture...these collective idiots are destroying the one government that stands between CHINA and a global empire! The West, the greatest advancement of human freedom and prosperity, with all its warts, is failing, its culture fractured, its orderly credit system being destroyed and the Middle Kingdom, ruthless, cold and utterly certain of its destiny, is extending its reach into every source of wealth and resources, it is the Eminence Grise behind much of the insanity. As we "fiddle", the new Rome burns!

The IRS can just hire social workers and therapists to defuse situations. That's what they want the police to do.

It’s a Senate Bill that will never see the light of day. Ernst has made a popular proposal that has the weight of a paper airplane. Now she can get back to green lighting the IRS expansion that never should have happened.

[Breitbart] Big Tech censorship is “at it again,” Republican Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno said on Tuesday after Facebook and Instagram prohibited his team from promoting his video taken in front of the Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, where taxpayers are housing migrants and illegal aliens.
“The Big Tech censors are at it again. Our video has over 1.5m views on @X, but @facebook & @instagram have prohibited us from promoting it, despite it being 100% accurate,” Moreno said on X, formally known as Twitter.
“They don’t want people to learn the truth about the flood of illegal migrants coming into our country!” he exclaimed.
Moreno shared a screenshot, which shows his post being “rejected.” It states, “This ad doesn’t comply with our Advertising Policies.”
In the post, Moreno noted that American taxpayers are “currently paying for every one of those rooms to be filled by illegal immigrants — At a cost of $6,000 per family of illegals, per month,” explaining that the Biden administration is “forcing American citizens to pay for the housing of illegal immigrants, while simultaneously subsidizing the Government of Pakistan.”
In the video alongside the post, Moreno stands in front of the iconic hotel, stating, “Today this hotel is fully occupied, all 1,025 rooms” with “illegal migrant families being housed here at the cost of $6,000 per month per family.”
“That’s $75 million in taxpayer money used here at this one hotel in Midtown Manhattan,” he said.
For greater perspective, Moreno added that the same government that “housed Osama bin Laden is now getting $75 million a year from American taxpayers to house families that are here illegally in America.”
[NYP] President Biden was accused of being disrespectful after he quickly exited the East Room of the White House before the conclusion of a Medal of Honor ceremony honoring a Vietnam War veteran on Tuesday.
Biden, 80, abruptly left the ceremony after fastening the nation’s highest military decoration around the neck of retired Army Capt. Larry Taylor, 81, before the closing benediction was read by Chaplain Brig. Gen. William Green Jr.
Military veterans slammed Biden afterward, arguing that the commander-in-chief showed a startling lack of respect.
"Pardon my French...But what a f—ing idiot. The continuous lack of respect Biden has for anyone is appalling. Hawaii, Service members, active shooter victims, the list goes on," former Navy SEAL and podcast host Shawn Ryan tweeted after the president’s hasty exit.
"At least he didn’t check his watch this time," Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-Texas), an Army veteran, snarked on X, formerly known as Twitter.

I don’t condone his disrespect for a military hero, but I have dreamed for many years about having the ability to book it out of ceremonies of all types.
#8
Words fail. The Puppet actually said in his remarks acknowledging other recipients that he was pleased to see "other former recipients of the MOH", like it was an Oscar, or a beauty pageant! To offer a slapdash salute, turn his back and just walk off, leaving CPT Taylor standing alone on the dais, without any concluding comments or even presenting him to the assembled guests before leaving, makes a mockery of what should be a moment of deep and abiding respect for the greatest honor we present. How vile, insulting and dismissive can you get!
[Gateway] The scene in State Farm Arena on Election Night 2020 in Georgia was a complete mess where order was breaking down. A recent review sheds light on the massive train wreck.
Georgia State Election Board member Matt Mashburn attempted to address accusations of election fraud in the 2020 election in his public statements in a meeting on November 23, 2020. He omitted key items and skimmed over other items, all in what to be an effort to cover up the real issues and seeming in the 2020 Georgia Presidential election.
Matt Mashburn shared his comments from a special meeting with the State Elections Board with local media outlet 11Alive on November 23, 2020.
[Breitbart] A forthcoming book by Breitbart News Network Editor-in-Chief and New York Times bestselling author Alex Marlow reveals new, breathtaking details about Biden family corruption.
Marlow also reveals the hidden agendas and dirty deals cut by Joe Biden’s allies, including billionaire financiers and administration officials. Threshold Editions (other authors on the imprint include Mark Levin, Tucker Carlson, and Sean Hannity among many others) announced that the Andrew Breitbart protégé and veteran journalist would release his second book, Breaking Biden: Exposing the Hidden Forces and Secret Money Machine Behind Joe Biden, His Family, and His Administration on October 3.
Threshold Editions is an imprint of publisher Simon & Schuster specializing in conservative non-fiction.
"Even people who think they know everything there is to know about the Bidens are going to be blown away by this book," a source familiar with the material told Breitbart News. "The details unearthed are astonishing: from schemes to extract cash from government-connected entities all over the world, to devastating policy failures, to repeatedly putting family finances above the American citizens Joe Biden supposedly serves, it’s all right there," the source said. "The establishment media and Big Tech are desperate to keep these facts hidden through the 2024 election."
"For well over a year, I have been immersed in what may be the deepest research project ever conducted on Joe Biden, his family, and those who have aided and abetted his rise to power," Marlow told Breitbart News. "I have gone to painstaking efforts to keep this material under wraps until this point. In virtually every area of Joe Biden’s life, I found more corruption, deception, and personal enrichment than I had anticipated. I had been following the Bidens for fifteen years before I took on this investigation, and I was consistently stunned throughout the process."
For Breaking Biden, Marlow has joined up with Peter Schweizer’s legendary investigative research outfit, the Government Accountability Institute (GAI), as a fellow. Schweizer praised Marlow as "one of the few journalists who does the deep research to break real news."

There have been so many "bombshells" in the past several years that it is a wonder that DC isn't littered with craters.
Wake me when someone important actually goes to jail.
Of course, I enjoy a long nap.

More bombshells for the media to ignore.
I was talking with some older California liberals last week, and they asserted again the talking point that the Obama regime did not have a "smidgen of corruption." I asked where Obama got the money to buy all those multimillion dollar mansions. They of course ignored me.

[IsraelTimes] Enrique Tarrio sentenced for orchestrating far-right holy warrior group’s attack on US Capitol in 2021 in bid to stop certification of Biden’s presidential election victory over Trump
Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was sentenced Tuesday to 22 years in prison for orchestrating his far-right holy warrior group’s attack on the US Capitol in a failed bid to stop the transfer of presidential power after Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... lost the 2020 election.
Tarrio’s sentence is the longest so far among more than 1,100 Capitol riot cases, topping the 18-year sentences that Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and one-time Proud Boys leader Ethan Nordean each received after juries convicted them of seditious conspiracy and other charges.
It comes as the Justice Department prepares to put Trump on trial at the same courthouse in Washington on charges that the then-president illegally schemed to cling to power that he knew had been stripped away by voters.
The Tarrio case — and hundreds of others like it — function as a vivid reminder of the violent mostly peaceful chaos fueled by Trump’s lies around the election and the extent to which his false claims helped inspire right-wing hard boyz who ultimately stormed the Capitol to thwart the peaceful transfer of power.
Rising to speak before the sentence was handed down, Tarrio pleaded for leniency, describing Jan. 6 as a "national embarrassment" and apologizing to the coppers who defended the Capitol and the politicians who fled in fear. His voice cracked as he expressed remorse for letting down his family and vowed that he is done with politics.
"I am not a political zealot. Inflicting harm or changing the results of the election was not my goal," Tarrio said.
"Please show me mercy," he said, adding, "I ask you that you not take my 40s from me."
US District Judge Timothy Kelly, who was appointed to the bench by Trump, said Tarrio was motivated by "revolutionary zeal" to lead the conspiracy that resulted in "200 men, amped up for battle, encircling the Capitol." Noting that Tarrio had not previously shown any public remorse for his crimes, the judge said a stiff punishment was necessary to deter future political violence.
"It can’t happen again. It can’t happen again," the judge repeated.
Standing before the judge in orange jail garb, Tarrio lowered his head after the sentence was read, then squared his shoulders and put his hands before his back.
Prosecutors had sought 33 years behind bars for Tarrio, describing him as the ringleader of a plot to use violence to shatter the cornerstone of American democracy and overturn the election victory by Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing... , a Democrat, over Trump, the Republican incumbent.
Prosecutor Conor Mulroe told the judge that the Proud Boys came dangerously close to succeeding in their plot to stop the transfer of presidential power — and noted that "it didn’t take rifles or explosives."
"There was a very real possibility we were going to wake up on Jan. 7 in a full-blown constitutional crisis," Mulroe said, with "300 million Americans having no idea who the next president would be or how it would be decided."
The prosecutor urged the judge to ensure that "consequences are abundantly clear to anyone who might be unhappy with the results of 2024, 2028, 2032 or any future election for as long as this case is remembered."
Tarrio wasn’t in Washington, D.C, when Proud Boys members joined thousands of Trump supporters, who smashed windows, beat coppers and poured into the House and Senate chambers as politicians met to certify Biden’s victory. But prosecutors say the 39-year-old Miami resident organized and led the Proud Boys’ assault from afar, inspiring followers with his charisma and penchant for propaganda.
Tarrio had been arrested two days before the Capitol riot on charges that he defaced a Black Lives Matter banner during an earlier rally in the nation’s capital, and he had complied with a judge’s order to leave the city after his arrest.
The judge agreed with prosecutors that the Proud Boys’ crimes could be punished as "terrorism" — increasing the recommended sentence under federal guidelines. But he ultimately sentenced the Proud Boys to prison terms shorter than what prosecutors were seeking.
The backbone of the government’s case was hundreds of messages exchanged by Proud Boys in the days leading up to Jan. 6 that prosecutors say showed how the hard boyz saw themselves as revolutionaries and celebrated the Capitol attack, which sent politicians running into hiding.
As Proud Boys swarmed the Capitol, Tarrio cheered them on from afar, writing on social media, "Do what must be done." In a Proud Boys encrypted group chat later that day someone asked what they should do next. Tarrio responded, "Do it again."
"Make no mistake," Tarrio wrote in another message. "We did this."
Tarrio’s lawyers denied the Proud Boys had any plan to attack the Capitol or stop the certification of Biden’s victory. They argued that prosecutors used Tarrio as a scapegoat for Trump, who spoke at the "Stop the Steal" rally near the White House on Jan. 6 and urged his supporters to "fight like hell."
Tarrio is the final Proud Boys leader convicted of seditious conspiracy to receive his punishment. Three fellow Proud Boys found guilty by a Washington jury of the rarely used sedition charge were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 15 to 18 years.
The Justice Department is appealing the 18-year prison sentence of Rhodes, the Oath Keepers founder, who was convicted of seditious conspiracy in a separate case, as well as the sentences of other members of his antigovernment militia group that were lighter than what prosecutors had sought.
Prosecutors had requested 25 years in prison for Rhodes.
