Kathy Hochul’s huge challenge as New
York’s next gov
Posted By: Imright, 8/11/2021 3:38:48 AM
Faced with universal demands for him to step down and clearly unable to govern, Gov. Andrew Cuomo did the only sane thing: He tendered his resignation. Good riddance. Now Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul will take over at a key moment for the state.She’s largely unknown and untested — but good signs abound: The Buffalo native has called herself “an independent Democrat” and got her start in politics as an aide to Rep. John LaFalce and the late, great Sen. Pat Moynihan, both independent-minded liberals.When then-Lt. Gov. David Paterson took over in 2008 after a prostitution scandal forced out Gov. Eliot Spitzer,

For decades, the Democrat “death tax” has been greatly frowned upon by Republicans and the American people. Most Americans hate the concept of taxing someone’s wealth after they have died however this has not stopped Democrats from gouging money from a deceased person’s family.National Review reports that the death tax has dropped from 55% to 40% this century however it now appears that the Biden administration wants more.You heard that right: The Biden administration wants to tax you or your loved one’s dead body.

Ryan Coyne, CEO of We the People wine, had some fun with Newsmax’s Eric Bolling Tuesday over the viral ad that is blowing minds all over the internet with 11 million views and counting.“It’s a wine company catering to conservative values with what some are calling the most patriotic commercial ever,” Bolling explained before airing the aggressively American ad.(Video) In it, former President Ronald Reagan gives a speech about the love of country and the people trying to destroy it that could have been written today. Combine that with visuals that tug at Americans’ heartstrings with unbridled patriotism
Donald Trump's secretary of state has strongly criticized the White House for their tactics in Afghanistan, saying that the country would not be falling to the Taliban if Trump was in charge.Mike Pompeo warned on Thursday night that the country was turning into 'a breeding ground' for future terror attacks weeks before the 20th anniversary of 9/11.'It looks at best naïve and at worst ignorant,' he said, of the chaotic withdrawal of U.S. forces.'Weakness begets war, and you see what weak leadership ultimately leads to.' By Thursday night, 12 provincial capitals had fallen to the Taliban and two thirds of the country was under their control.
This Afghan rout is entirely on Joe Biden

It doesn’t get more idiotic: “The Taliban also has to make an assessment about what they want their role to be in the international community,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said with a straight face Wednesday.Oh, and the State Department has sent diplomats to “press the Taliban to stop their military offensive and to negotiate a political settlement, which is the only path to stability and development in Afghanistan.” They’re also begging to have the US embassy in Kabul left alone, warning that future US aid is at risk — and so effectively promising that we’ll actually subsidize these barbarians.
The 2020 Census has revealed that America's white population is shrinking and is now less than 60 percent for the first time on record, with nearly 20million fewer white Americans alive today than ten years ago.White Americans make up 57.8 percent of the country, according to the data that was released on Thursday, a decrease of over 6 percent since 2010. That is the number of people who replied 'white alone, non Hispanic or Latino' to the survey. Another group who just answered 'white alone' make up 61 percent of the country, according to a data map. The white population is still the largest in the country
President Biden on Thursday called local leaders who are pushing mask mandates on children “heroes.”“I know there are a lot of people out there trying to turn a public safety measure — that is children wearing masks in school so they can be safe — into a political dispute and that this isn’t about politics,” he said at the White House. “This is about keeping our children safe.”The comment comes after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended students, faculty and staff in K-12 schools, regardless of vaccination status, wear masks indoors amid growing concern
As a retiree from high school teaching in NYC, we have Medicare (80%) and supplemental insurance (20%). Effective Jan. 1, our insurance will be NYC Medicare Advantage Plus Plan and will be administered by Emblem Health and by Blue Shield, not by the troika of Medicare, Emblem Health, and Blue Shield as is presently the case. All medical bills will go to the new plan. The plan in turn will pay the doctors and hospital. There is a $253 deductible for each person and a $300 deductible for hospital admission. My experience is that we are already moving toward Medicare for All even though legislation
The White House would have looked entirely different today if it weren’t for an intense competition to determine its design. In 1792, George Washington spearheaded a contest for those interested in designing the president’s home. Irish-born James Hoban ended up the lucky winner after his neoclassical mansion — known today as the White House — was chosen.But as with any competition, several entries were rejected. For the first time ever, The Post has obtained the sketches of what the White House could have looked like — had a different entry been selected.
Funny how we only hear about dangerous threats from those networks who declare them dangerous.Let’s take a look over a list of items we are told are absolutes in our political landscape these days: Conservatives the country over are committed to The Big Lie. Donald Trump is blindly followed by every Republican. Qanon feeds the mindset of anybody who is right-of-center.These truths are well known and perpetually broadcast, but there is a core foundational reality behind these maxims. The subjects in each of these entries is followed more intently and the information is disseminated to the populace with far more energy by the mainstream press industry.
The Pentagon is sending 3,000 troops back into Afghanistan to help evacuate some personnel from the US embassy amid the Taliban's surging encroachment on the capital city of Kabul.Those 3,000 troops, part of three infantry battalions, are in addition to the over 650 US service members still currently stationed in Afghanistan. Another 3,500 to 4,000 reserve forces will be stationed in Kuwait on standby, and another 1,000 will go to Qatar to help with Special Immigrant Visa processing. Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said: 'We believe this is it the prudent thing to do given the rapidly deteriorating security situation in and around Kabul.'

Every now and then the RINOs tell you how they REALLY feel about their base voters.
Last night Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) spoke at an event in Chicago.
During questions and answers Crenshaw told supporters there was no voter fraud in the 2020 election adding, “Don’t kid yourself into believing that’s why we lost. It’s not. I’ll tell you openly.”
At that point conservative activist Bobby Piton jumped in to challenge Crenshaw. “You’re wrong.

WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden said Wednesday his administration is taking steps to crack down on illegal activity that might be contributing to a rise in gas prices. Biden announced that the National Economic Council has asked the Federal Trade Commission to use “every available tool” to monitor the U.S. gasoline market and look for any illegal activity that might be causing gas prices to jump while the cost of a barrel of oil is going down. “That’s not what you’d expect in a competitive market,” Biden said from the White House.

The Pentagon is sending troops back to Afghanistan to evacuate some personnel from the US embassy as the Taliban surges into the capital, Kabul, according to the Associated Press.
By Thursday, Taliban fighters had occupied Herat, the third largest city in Afghanistan, and took control of 11 of the 34 state capitals. Radical groups are said to occupy Kandahar, the second largest city in the country after Kabul.
Earlier, US negotiators were reported to have sought guarantees from the Taliban that militant groups would not chase the US embassy if they overtook Kabul.
The Pentagon is preparing for a possible evacuation of the U.S. embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan amid fears that the Taliban may overrun the compound in the coming days, the New York Times reported Thursday.
As the militant organization makes significant gains, capturing ten provincial capitals across the country, the State Department is expected to reduce embassy staff and is considering relocating its outpost to the Kabul airport, a number of sources told CNN. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is moving marines into position to cover the evacuation of staff as intelligence reports suggest the Taliban may launch an assault within 30 days, the Times reported.
In a recent mixed gathering of friends and casual acquaintances, a man made a joke about “mental masturbation.” A woman’s rejoinder mentioned her habits of the physical kind. Everyone laughed. I did too. It was funny.
That’s an exchange that would not have happened a few years ago. Back then, and forever prior to then, onanism was a fine thing that 90% of people practiced, often to perfection, but 110% denied. Heck, they didn’t even need to deny it, because the entire topic was taboo.
Not so anymore.
Mike Lindell on Thursday claimed he was attacked at his hotel in Sioux Falls, South Dakota during his 'cyber symposium' claiming the 2020 election was rigged against Donald Trump. The MyPillow CEO took the stage and told the crowd 'I'm okay but it hurts' after the alleged confrontation on Wednesday night, hours after he fled the stage when he found out he has lost a bid to dismiss a $1.3 billion lawsuit from Dominion Voting Systems over voter fraud claims. Lindell is hosting a 72-hour marathon cyber symposium where he is attempting to prove his baseless election fraud claims.
Blue hydrogen has “no role in a carbon-free future” – and is actually up to 20% worse for the planet than burning gas or coal to produce heat, according to what is claimed as a landmark academic study.
In the week that the United Nations declared “code red for humanity” over the climate emergency, researchers from Cornell and Stanford universities in the US branded the blue variety of hydrogen beloved of the fossil fuel sector as a “distraction” that could divert focus away from genuinely green technologies.
Blue H2, produced using natural gas with carbon capture and storage (CCS), is a key plank of the energy transition strategies
Another day, another instance of a Big Tech company censoring content it doesn’t like.
This time, YouTube—owned by Google—took down a video by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., in which he discusses face masks and COVID-19. YouTube also banned Paul from its platform for a week.
“We removed content from Senator Paul’s channel for including claims that masks are ineffective in preventing the contraction or transmission of COVID-19, in accordance with our COVID-19 medical misinformation policies,” YouTube said in a public statement.
Notably, YouTube’s policy cites the World Health Organization and “local authorities” as its source of what’s correct about COVID-19.
