Sometimes, the silliness of the Democrats is jaw-dropping with their pot-banging protests, performance theatrics, and rote opposition to every single policy President Donald Trump proposes. Whether his ideas are good or bad for the country does not play a part in their decision-making; all that matters to them is that they thwart him at every turn. [snip] Democrat socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani has taken the duplicity to new heights, however, combining idiocy with hypocrisy in just one statement regarding New York City snow removal. You can help out, the mayor said Saturday — just be sure to bring two forms of ID and your Social Security card:

Does that include clearing your neighbor's driveway or digging your own car out?
Socialists have no sense of irony.

At first I thought that Z should pick up a shovel and join the crew to be an example to NYCers...but then it occurred to me he probably wouldn't be able to produce the appropriate IDs required.

Initially I thought it'd be nice if Z would pick up a shovel to help clear the snow; he'd be setting a good example. But then it occurred to me he probably wouldn't be able to produce the necessary IDs.

Do you get a government supplied shovel? If you supply your own shovel, do you get a wear and tear allowance for your shovel? And, I still wonder. If I drive in from Kansas to vote in NYC, and show up saying "I'm John Smith, I want to vote." Will they let me vote with no ID? I'm sure that there will be at least one "John Smith" on their lists. No ID to vote, every illegal alien gets to vote, but ....no illegals to shovel snow?

Has Mamdani made 'a deal' with the city unions that clean the streets? I suspect they may be irked, or just see it as the ruse it is.

Stupid question ( I know the answer) Why isn't the city taking care of the snow. Why the appeal to the Citizens of the Soviet of New York City? This is truly like the USSR telling you to do your duty for the Motherland..err..City land (or else ....of course!). Like a poster stated this time he is asking, Can;t wait for the next time when it will be demanded.

Yes, they need to enforce that only people with dual identities an shovel snow. We wouldn't want any illegals to handle our anow but they can vote so it should be adequate compensation

The only people benefitting from the Mamdani regime are comedy writers. I first heard the "Jim Snow 2.0" line from the great Jimmy Failla. Comrade Zohran is gonna learn the power of ridicule, of which New Yorkers lead the league year after year. President Trump is Exhibit "A", Your Honor... What happens if I pick up a shovel and start moving snow on my own? Am I being a scab/strikebreaker? Not part of that 'warm embrace' of collectivism?? I'm SO confused

Mamdani found a novel way to exempt illegals from doing any actual labor to pay for what they get for free. In the meantime, paying by the hour to move 14 inches of snow with a shovel has to the absolute dumbest thing I’ve heard in a while. I’m sure his supporters were the first to volunteer.

The city has no money, instead of throwing money at the snow he should ask for volunteers and that he will provide pizza and beer. Most people want to help their neighbors, let them.

Gavin Newsom blasted for $239M Nordic-style

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is facing blowback after unveiling a new $239 million rehabilitation center at the infamous San Quentin prison — complete with a cafe and sweeping views of San Francisco Bay. Newsom attended the opening of the new San Quentin Learning Center, with the goal of “proving that rehabilitation and public safety go hand in hand,” he said at ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday. The center, which features Scandinavian-inspired design, also includes podcast studios, recording spaces and a store “to normalize social and vocational experiences.” Critics of the amenity-filled center blasted Newsom for the redesign, saying prisons shouldn’t be cushy.

A planned protest at the Buchenwald concentration camp memorial on the anniversary of its liberation is igniting backlash in Germany for a simple reason: Activists intend to turn a Holocaust commemoration into a contemporary political demonstration. According to reports, radical organizations are organizing a demonstration at the site on April 11 under the slogan “Keffiyehs in Buchenwald,” accusing the memorial’s management of “spreading Israeli propaganda” and not being “hostile enough toward Israel.” Among the groups involved are the student wing of Germany’s Left Party, the anti-Israel group Jewish Voice for a Just Peace in the Middle East, and the German Communist Party. The date is not incidental.

A group of white teens were cleared of hate crime allegations after a black Virginia Tech professor whined to cops he was a victim of a racist attack when they blasted rap music and dumped snow near his home. Dr. Onwubiko Agozino, a sociology professor at the Virginia university, claimed in a Feb. 10 police report that eight white minors racially targeted him when they rolled up to his Christiansburg home blaring offensive music, throwing ice blocks, and hurling a flurry of racist jabs, including the N-word.

A Virginia high school suspended more than 300 teens who ditched class and stormed off campus during a student-led anti-ICE walkout last week, according to reports. Woodbridge High School handed three-day suspensions to 303 students who walked out of class last Friday to “express their views” and protest federal immigration enforcement, principal Dr. Heather Abney told parents in a letter obtained by 7 News. The demonstration, which was not backed by Prince William County Public Schools, eventually spilled off school grounds and onto the streets, forcing local police to manage traffic and oversee the hundreds of rebel students involved.

It is “not fair” that U.S. President Donald Trump more often calls on Ukraine to compromise to achieve peace than Russia, President Volodymyr Zelensky said amid “difficult” two-day peace talks in Switzerland. Two-day Ukraine War peace talks broke abruptly and apparently early on Wednesday morning, the second day’s session having lasted just two hours, amid remarks from both sides about how arduous progress had been so far. And even as the Ukrainian leader observed that he saw what could be a “final stage” in talks, he decried Russia for trying to further “drag out” progress and the United States for what he was was unfairly

Democratic politicians have found themselves indirectly defending Islam’s 7th-century hatred of man’s best friend, dogs. Several Democrats have instinctively accused Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) of racism after he reacted to a New York-based Muslim advocate, Nerdeen Kiswani — who said house pet dogs will not be welcome in a non-secular, Islamic New York. “NYC is coming to Islam,” said a February 12 tweet from Kiswani, referring to the November electoral victory of Zohran Mamdani, the Ugandan-born, Indian-origin, immigrant, populist, and Muslim Mayor of New York. [snip] Fine responded three days later, on February 15: “If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one.”

If you get stopped at an airport security checkpoint with $100 or more in cash, Transportation Security Administration agents can fleece you. TSA has stripped more than 10,000 travelers of their money since 2014, but the supposed “criminals” are almost never charged after their cash is taken.[snip] In August 2019, 57-year-old Brown was flying out of Pittsburgh International Airport carrying her father’s life savings — $82,373 — which he wanted her to deposit in a joint bank account near her Boston home. A TSA agent noticed the Tupperware loaded with the cash while scanning Brown’s luggage and summoned a Drug Enforcement Administration agent, who speedily announced he was seizing the money.

If that sounds absurd on its face, you haven't been paying attention to what has been going on in Western cities where Muslims have become a significant fraction of the population. Zohran Mamdani has already made significant moves to Islamize New York, including blasting the Islamic call to prayer five times a day.

President Trump has come out swinging against a Utah bill that would require large artificial intelligence companies to implement public safety and child protection plans. “We are categorically opposed to Utah HB 286 and view it as an unfixable bill that goes against the Administration’s AI Agenda,” the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs said in a terse Feb. 12 memo of opposition to the bill sent to Republican leadership in the Utah state Legislature. The measure, HB 286, the Utah AI Transparency Act, applies specifically to big developers of frontier AI models. It requires AI developers to prepare a public safety plan for catastrophic risks and prepare a child protection plan.

The West Village shop — an apparent nod to Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s government-run grocery store pitch — drew more than 400 New Yorkers, who lined up hours ahead of the 2 p.m. opening, eager to fill blue tote bags with no-cost produce, nonperishables and toiletries. “Times are hard.

Abigail Spanberger, the new governor of Virginia, who has been tapped to deliver the Democrats’ State of the Union reply Tuesday night, is the perfect avatar for her party’s deception. With her long blond bob, minimalist makeup, pinched face and brisk air, she looks like the sort of competent working mom you’d encounter at school drop-off in any affluent suburb. In other words, she seems like somebody you instinctively trust. But don’t be fooled by appearances. Spanberger is an expert at subterfuge, having spent eight years as an undercover CIA case officer, aka a spy, under Barack Obama and John Brennan, in the era when Democrats turned national security back on itself.

The Democratic Party’s latest talking point against the SAVE Act is almost performance art in its absurdity. We are now expected to believe that birth certificates are mystical documents, whispered about in legend but never actually seen. They are simply too elusive for modern Americans to locate and too burdensome for a civilized society to require. Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom and socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont, have both recently claimed they do not know where their vital records are, as though those documents vanished into the same void as missing socks. “I don’t have my birth certificate,” Sanders said last week. “God knows how I get it.”

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has reportedly taken steps to prepare for the possibility of his assassination or removal as tensions with the United States and Israel intensify. According to a New York Times report published on Sunday, Khamenei elevated longtime ally Ali Larijani to serve as the country’s de facto decision-maker during January’s anti-government unrest. The move has effectively sidelined Iran’s elected president, Masoud Pezeshkian. Larijani, a former Revolutionary Guards commander and current secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, is now taking on an expanded role in the state’s affairs.
