Zohran Mamdani Just Announced Plans to Begin Seizing and Redistributing Private Property AP Photo/Yuki Iwamura New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani kicked off his plan to “fix” the city’s affordability crisis with his official housing policy agenda, titled “Block by Block,” under which one of the first priorities is to allow the government to seize property from owners deemed “negligent” and redistribute it to so-called “responsible stewards,” a category that includes anyone from land trusts, nonprofits, or even tenants themselves.

First he will say he only wants the neglected properties then an excuse will be applied to better properties for minor problems. The slightest thing, bad lighting, peeling wallpaper etc etc. Seize a buildings and turn it into ghetto housing. If NYC worries about the outflow of tax paying citizens now, just wait.

Mamdani will go after rent controlled buildings where the owners were unable to update things or got behind on some insane new NYC housing regulations due to the rent controls and lack of funds. Even if perfectly safe, he would deem them non compliant and take them.

While I would love to think the courts will put a stop to this, Kelo remains the law of the land, and even the current Supreme Court has passed on several chances to overturn it. Madman Mon will likely get his chance to ruin New York as thoroughly as he plans to. It’s sad, but then I remember Mencken’s take on thr definition of democracy.

It always amuses and irritates me to no end, to watch Americans yell, "Constitutional! That's against the Constitution!!" only when their money or property are all of a sudden threatened. They couldn't give a rip about the Constitution -- whatever they know about it -- ever in their lives, were it not for the sand and gravel that find their way into their shoes. NYC + the rest of the country had months to examine and pushback against this very ignorant and arrogant islamic communist (what a mix!) from an elite and filthy rich family in Africa. So in their rabid TDS, they decided to go for the novelty of a young demagogue that would somehow tackle the self-inflicted ills New Yorkers always complain about in their decadent, capitalist environment. Well here you are, now LIVE with it. And coming from a communist country as I do, the headline reminded me of Matthew's gospel in 14:8, these are the “beginning of sorrows." I have no dog in this fight, I don't live in NY and, frankly, I no longer care: those voters prefer to trash the country and pay attention to the leftist brainwashing going on in academia, than face a hardcore conversation on the merits of the mayor and his obscene ideas that have never produced anything positive. Castro confiscated all private property right after he took power and, as a child, he took away the tiny wooden house my family had built at great sacrifice. I never thought I'd see this again, but I've learned in life that people do not learn from instruction, as much as they learn in the great school of hard knocks.

The courts might stop this or the litigation could drag on for years. It is now to the point that I don't care what happens to NYC as long as they don't come for the rest of us to bail them out or push them to my state. The commie Muslim is doing his best to drive out the people who would have to pay for this foolishness. I hope the liberal, elite New Yorkers can get by with half the fine restaurants, Broadway plays etc. I also wonder about the small businesses who own their own buildings, the mom-and-pop stores, bodegas. Will he include them? And how is he going to buy them out? The free buses, subways, childcare will be taking out their big share. If this weren't so sad, it would be entertaining to watch the coming debacle and excuses from the usual media hacks.

Earlier this month, Tennessee Republicans passed a new congressional map that eliminated Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen’s Memphis district. Tennessee became the ninth state to approve a new congressional map amid the redistricting wars. A judge previously allowed Tennessee’s new congressional map to stand. Tennessee Republicans eliminated Cohen’s congressional district after the Supreme Court’s blockbuster ruling on racial gerrymandering.

The most recent instance came earlier in the day, Tuesday, when they brought in a resident "health expert" to demand explanations from Trump's doctors about supposed issues related in part to Trump allegedly being seen falling asleep when he's sitting in the Oval Office during informal press briefings and the like.

It would enhance trade by linking Central Asia to Turkey and Europe while — crucially — bypassing Russia and Iran.

Among the charges were the two largest Medicaid fraud cases in the history of Minnesota as well as unique charges relevant to Medicaid, never before brought.

The June 2024 presidential debate between then-President Joe Biden (D) and then-GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump was inarguably one of the most consequential events in American political history, largely because it proved to the American people beyond a shadow of a doubt that the occupant of the Oval Office was unwell. As we all know, it led to Biden withdrawing from the presidential race three weeks later after essentially being forced out by his fellow Democrats. It was a reckoning of sorts for the Democrat Party, the Biden-Harris administration, and the mainstream media, all of whom played starring roles in the deliberate years-long cover-up of Biden's decline,

Given the relative difference between how the two would have voted over the next six years, the gain from nominating Paxton probably doesn't justify the assumed risk of dethroning the incumbent Cornyn. It might take more money to fight for the seat in the general election, but that assumes that Democrats would have left Texas alone had Cornyn eked out a win over Paxton.

President Trump’s surprise endorsement catapulted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton to a landslide victory in Tuesday’s Republican Senate primary runoff election. As has been the case throughout the 2026 midterm primary season, Trump’s stamp of approval remains critical for GOP candidates in local and statewide elections. Here are four takeaways from the contests in the Lone Star State.After coming in second place in the preliminary March 3 primary, Paxton was propelled by the president’s endorsement — defeating incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) by a stunning 27-point margin (63.8% to 36.2%) in the runoff.

For years, Democrats and their allies in the media swore Joe Biden was sharp as a tack, fully capable, and absolutely fine. Then came the June 2024 debate, and that story collapsed in real time before millions of viewers. The fallout was so bad that Biden's own party forced him off the ticket. He dropped out, spent the rest of his term below the radar, and has spent his post-presidency trying to rehabilitate his image. Now, that effort has taken a new and telling turn. Biden filed a lawsuit Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia seeking to block the Justice Department from releasing roughly

For many years the Soviet Union, and then Russia, financed the environmental movement in the United States. Their purpose was to suppress American production of oil and gas, and they succeeded to a considerable degree, to their own great benefit. Today, we are in the midst of another kind of race with Communist China–the race to develop superior systems of artificial intelligence. The Chinese Communist Party knows that if it wins this race, it will contribute greatly to its dreams of world domination, while if it loses, China, with its rapidly shrinking population, could be on the way to the garbage dump of history. So the stakes are enormous.

A wild new “animal cruelty” ballot proposal would put hunters and fishermen on the hook. Controversial legislation that would outlaw killing or “injuring” any animal — even while shooting or catching your dinner — is one step closer to landing on the ballot in Oregon, officials said Wednesday. The measure, Initiative Petition 28, has garnered 120,000 signatures, more than the roughly 117,000 it needs to go to vote in November, The Oregonian reported. Along with banning hunting and fishing, the legislation would also prohibit slaughtering livestock and using animals in rodeos and for scientific research. It would also prohibit operating a commercial poultry business and castrating or neutering livestock, among other practices.
