In New York City, the bad guys have long understood an unwritten rule: you don’t hit a cop. In the past, doing so put you at the top of the NYPD’s to-do list and ensured that you would not be free on the streets for long. When 30,000 officers are tasked with securing a metropolis of nine million residents, the impenetrability of the “thin blue line” is a matter of life and death. When video emerged of a group of illegal aliens wrestling two cops to the ground near Times Square and beating them with fists and feet, that thin blue line got thinner. When news broke that the offenders were released without bail and that a left-wing “charity” had likely given them a free ride to California, the blue line all but disappeared.
By looking the other way as criminal invaders attack the people charged with protecting the city, NYC mayor Eric Adams and district attorney Alvin Bragg not only betray their duties to those who risk their lives every day for others’ safety, but also prove their complicity with those who wage war against citizens of the United States. Before he disappeared without a care in the world, one of the foreign nationals apprehended for the attack left Manhattan Criminal Court with two middle fingers extended into the air and a broad smile across his face. It was an “F you” to all Americans from a man who should never have been allowed to illegally enter the United States in the first place. At the same time, it sure felt as if Adams, Bragg, Biden, Mayorkas, and all the other open-borders advocates and politicians were really the ones flipping off desperate American citizens whose decades-long pleas for secure borders have been entirely ignored.

NYPD officers today are nothing more than the remnant of NYC’s lockdown enforcement stormtroopers, anyway. I hope they enjoyed their piñata session.

We need to ‘wall off’ our money via tax caps in our federal and state constitutions. Here’s one possibility:
No more than 1 million American citizens shall have to pay more 40%, no more than 5 million American citizens shall have to pay more 30% and no more than 30 million American citizens shall have to pay more than 22% in federal income taxation.
Tax cap amendments might get enacted.
If Republicans fight hard for them, Republicans will win votes, and office.
If I were an armed cop and being threatened with attack by a crazed mob, I probably would play the “I was in fear for my life” card.
If there’s a bright side to the NY cops getting attacked and the perps leaving town upon being released it’s that their case automatically rolls over to the US Marshals. They don’t wear body cams.
However, it wouldn't work anyway, because the right can't live without the entertainment, instant status updates, and same day shipping provided by the left, or by the cheap products provided by the Chicoms.
Prove me wrong.
Please.
The Republicans in Congress should try to send to the states a constitutional amendment that would cap middle class property taxation, such as:
Property tax on any residential property of less than 2799 square feet of finished space shall be no higher the 2019 dollar amount on the property, or for a newer or since resold property what a similar property in the same area would have been taxed at for 2019 if it lacked owner specific tax breaks, increased by 3% per calendar year since 2019 and by any percentage increase to its finished space.
Fighting for such a property tax cap now in Congress would add the electors of several deep blue states to Trump’s total and make Congress turn deep red come November.
Even devoted Democratic voters do not want to get taxed out of their homes.
How would schools get funded if property taxes are capped to 2019 scale levels? By higher sales taxation and by services taxation that is used in Florida in lieu of having a state income tax.
I don’t want to pay for schooling of the kids of the people pampering the well-to-do. Pampered people need to pay for such schooling via service taxation.
Should be on billboards everywhere.
“cheap products provided by the Chicoms”
Open your eyes Rip!
The Chinese stuff is no longer cheap.
Cartel political campaign donations will see to it that this only gets worse.
I know. I’ve made that point on other threads. I was talking about the promises of cheaper prices and benefits to the consumers made by the free traitors. How’s that working out for us?
The main problem is Social Security (old age retirement) funding.
The national debt could be dealt with via corporate and sales taxation.
“ and that a left-wing “charity” had likely given them a free ride to California.”
This organization needs to be charged once indictments are handed down. Pardon me, IF indictments are handed down.

That, and having exported our high paying, revenue generating jobs to other countries. Now we have to raise the debt limit just to pay the interest on our loans.
.
They started feminizing the force decades ago and the job is now complete. RIP NYPD.
The stores might have to resort to identity check vestibules.
One would enter the vestibule through an outer door and provide ID. The outer door would lock and the inner door would unlock.
“They are literally overrunning my town here in Massachusetts. We are now a border state. They have taken over all of the hotels except in wealthy communities where the democrat donors reside. I’m afraid of them.”
from The Conservative Treehouse
Congress needs to understand that we’re the ones with the well-justified fear.
“$400 million for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program to help nonprofits and places of worship make security enhancements.”
The Conservative Treehouse said this was in the bill.
