Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance will not seek reelection for a fourth term, he annnounced Friday morning.“Representing the People of New York during this pivotal era for our city and our justice system has been the privilege of a lifetime,” Vance, who first ran for the position in 2009, said in a memo to prosecutors and staff. “Working in partnership with Manhattan communities, the D.A.’s Office we built together over the last decade has taken us beyond the ambitious blueprint we laid out in 2009.”“One, we built safer and stronger communities – not just by winning in court, but by making sustained investments in our neighborhoods so that

If Vance dares to indict PDT on "Trumped" up charges he should be seeking a shelter from the tar and feathers carrying crowd!

NYC, "we built safer and stronger communities" than in 2009... Maybe he is trying to bring back the Pathological Liars skit on SNL. Either that or... drugs are bad, right?

Tells me a couple things: 1. As opined above, he realized that he can't win another term. 2. Whoever wins will be farther left that Vance was. 3. Little Cy has figured he can make more loot on the circuit fleecing the leftist sheep with tales on how "he almost got Trump." You know, like Captain Ahab chased after Moby Dick.

Maybe he has his eyes on a bigger prize? Cyrus Vance for Governor of New York after Andrew Cuomo resigns or is removed?

#4 has it nailed. Vance is an extreme, corrupt, disgusting, lying leftist - - but his replacement will probably be even worse.

I find this interesting. Recall that shortly after Trump was elected he mentioned that he knew where the bodies were buried.

Is the plan in very liberal NY for Vance to indict Trump on some criminal charge and then get ready to run for Governor next year? Looks like we will see. It looks like the old line corrupt liberal Democrats like Cuomo are in a political civil war with the younger progressive (socialist) Democrats who want Cuomo’s governorship, and want to keep Cuomo from running for the Democrat nomination for President in 2024 against progressive Democrat candidates. All the women lining up against Cuomo are either liberal or progressive Democrats with one just coming out with a sexual assault charge against Cuomo that involved actual touching that could be a big deal. But not as big as the sexual assault charge against Biden late last year by a Democrat woman during the Presidential campaign that the Democrats and their fake media propagandists totally ignored that was a much bigger deal, the act of forcefully inserting a finger, that in most jurisdictions is a felony first degree sexual assault. Because of that Democrat intransigence Biden is now a “Trojan Horse” President covering for the Democrat socialists, at least until they decide to replace him with a real Democrat socialist who had no chance of being elected President in her own rite.

Experts have said fears of a 'fourth wave' hitting the US may have been overblown as Florida continues to record falling coronavirus cases and deaths despite having more cases of the UK's super-COVID variant than any other state. CDC data shows a fifth of all US cases of the more highly contagious and more deadly B.1.1.7 strain first detected in the south of England have come from the Sunshine State.In total, Florida has recorded 690 cases, dwarfing much of the rest of the US where 44 of all 50 states have recorded fewer than 100 cases. The next highest state Michigan has 563 followed by Colorado with 267.

Even the mainstream media is nailing the president for stretching the truth in his first prime-time address to the nation.The New York Times fact-checked President Joe Biden’s speech Thursday night on the one-year anniversary of the coronavirus pandemic, and things don’t look good.Although it didn’t call Biden out for lies explicitly, every statement it recorded was marked as either “exaggerated” or “misleading.”The first “exaggeration” was marked in Biden’s opening, where he said that when the coronavirus pandemic first struck, Americans were “met with silence and spread unchecked, denials for days, weeks, then months.”

Democrats are unyielding in their quest for a permissive society where there is little if any personal responsibility.Nowhere is this more apparent than their preferred policies on the killing of unborn babies, and amid the current marijuana craze liberal politicians are borrowing from that campaign to mainstream weed.Just as Democrats pursued laws allowing minors to have an abortion without telling their parents, New Jersey has legalized the consumption of marijuana, in all its forms, on private property and enacted a law restricting law enforcement from notifying the parents of minors who are caught with possession of weed or alcohol.

There were key words and phrases President Joe Biden failed to use during Thursday’s primetime address marking the one-year anniversary of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, including “China,” — the virus’s place of origin — and “Operation Warp Speed” — the partnership prompted by former President Trump’s administration that sped up the development and distribution of vaccines to fight the illness. Biden appeared to place blame on former President Trump nearly immediately, telling the American people, “A year ago, we were hit with a virus

The Biden administration has enjoyed no honeymoon. The cabal that addled Joe Biden fronts really didn’t want one. Bridge-building, comity, and compromise are passé. What Ron Klain, Susan Rice, and a knot of plutocrats and “progressives” who pull Joe’s strings want are crises. Manufactured crises are just as good as the real deals. They’re opportunities not to be wasted.Not wasted for what, you may ask? Not wasted for power and money. Democrats’ reflexive appeals to compassion and kumbaya are shabby, if serviceable, ploys. Flimflammers get it.Putting it more decorously, crisis is a governance tool of Biden minions and Democrats generally.

“BIDEN,” say the young demonstrators’ T-shirts, imitating his campaign logo, “PLEASE LET US IN!” What a waste of T-shirt money: For President Biden seems determined to let in as many immigrants as want to come.The numbers are daunting. About 80,000 people tried to cross the southern border this January, double the number in January 2020. That number could easily balloon this spring, traditionally the peak migration season, with fewer COVID-19 restrictions in place.And with less cooperation from Mexico. The 2019 illegal surge was quashed by the protocol to which then-President Donald Trump got Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to agree.

New York—For years, researchers have said a lack of diversity in Hollywood films doesn't just poorly reflect demographics, it's bad business. A new study by the consulting firm McKinsey & Company estimates just how much Hollywood is leaving on the table: $10 billion. The McKinsey report, released Thursday, analyzes how inequality shapes the industry and how much it ultimately costs its bottom line. The consulting firm deduced that the $148 billion film and TV industry loses $10 billion, or 7%, every year by undervaluing Black films, filmmakers and executives.(Snip) The BlackLight Collective, a coalition of Black executives and talent in the industry,

Now that the implications of the Harris/Biden administration are setting in, my Democrat friends (yes, I do have a few) are becoming very embarrassed. They bought into the propaganda that all the turmoil in Washington was created by the erratic and immoral behavior of Donald Trump. Their vote for Harris/Biden was a vote to return to normal. They didn’t realize that the Democrats weren’t offering a return to normal, they were offering the establishment of a “new normal.” (snip) My friends are belatedly realizing that the turmoil was not created by Donald Trump. It was manufactured by the Democrats, simply to win an election.

On Thursday night, a masked Biden tottered down a long, empty hall to a podium. He then gave the most bizarre presidential address in American history. After a grim recital of “facts” about the last year, Biden emphasized multiple times that Americans had better take the vaccine – and be grateful to him for his amazing ability to get the vaccine to Americans. He also insisted that, vaccines or not, the government’s in control and can lock all of us up all over again. (snip) Biden kept saying that he was going to tell the truth.

Scientists have begun to lay plans for repopulation, starting with a sperm bank—on the moon. In what they’re calling a “modern global insurance policy,” mechanical engineers have proposed that humans establish a repository of reproductive cells—sperm and ova—from 6.7 million of Earth’s species, including humans. And the proposed bank, or “ark,” would be beneath the moon’s surface. As our planet faces natural disasters, drought, asteroids and the potential for nuclear war—to name a few troubles—scientists say that humans must set their sights on space travel to preserve life as we know it. “Earth is naturally a volatile environment,”

Donald Trump has said he wants to settle political scores with the Washington establishment, and since he’s well-known among his supporters to keep his promises, it shouldn’t surprise anyone to know that he’s already hard at work keeping this one.Since emerging from the post-election, post-impeachment self-imposed exile, the former president has reentered the political field bigly with the intention of remaking as much of the political landscape in his image as possible.That largely means endorsing individual candidates for office, which we’re sure he’ll back up with personal appearances and rallies with candidates when the 2022 and 2024 elections draw nearer.
