AOC calls on NYC Mayor Eric Adams to resign
Washington Examiner ^ | 9/25/24 | Brady Knox

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) called on Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams to resign as he faces a slew of corruption allegations.

Investigations and accusations of corruption have plagued Adams since November 2023, when the FBI raided the homes of two of his associates. Numerous close associates have since been investigated, raided, and arrested, some as recently as this month, presenting a chaotic image of his administration. In a statement to the New York Times on Wednesday, Ocasio-Cortez became the most prominent Democrat to openly call on Adams to resign.

She may have been personally broke. But her various enterprises seem to have had millions. I don’t even know if they are still operating.

Someone formerly high up in Cuomo’s staff told me they think Cuomo will run for NYC Mayor if Adams resigns.

No doubt. BUT, I am talking about how this could shift some of the black vote to Trump.

Cuomo would be better than most of the realistic alternatives.

The bigger trouble is that Adams replacement is an unabashed communist.

Somebody is out to cripple any future political ambitions for the mayor. The DOJ doesn’t go after Democrats unless ordered to do so for a specific reason. Who in NY politics has that kind of pull?

Because his replacement would be a radical leftwing socialist , that’s why.

I’m not sure how this will play on the N.Y. vote in the national election, but it shouldn’t hurt Trump one bit.

Black Man Faces Punishment For Disobeying His Democrat Masters

Babylon Bee ^ | 09/26/2024 | Babylon Bee
Posted on 9/26/2024, 11:03:54 AM by DFG

NEW YORK, NY — A palpable somber mood was felt throughout the Big Apple today following the announcement that a black man would be facing severe punishment for daring to disobey his Democrat masters.

As they have done throughout America’s history, Democrats took swift steps to reprimand a local black man for refusing to do what he was told and having the audacity to voice his own opinion in opposition to their directions.

“Looks like someone needs to be taught a lesson,” said one powerful Democrat. “We can’t afford to have any of these black folks having thoughts and opinions of their own. Who does he think he is? We made him what he is today. We gave him a job. We give the orders around here, and we expect them to be followed. Once we’re done with him, all of the others will see that it is a bad idea to disobey what we tell them.”

When asked why a black man should follow orders rather than have his own views, the Democrat provided a simple explanation. “We are the ones in charge,” he said. “We know what’s best for them. We will tell them what to think. We will tell them what they can and can’t do. We will tell them who to vote for. And as long as they obey, everything will be fine and we will reward them. But if they decide to get all uppity and opinionated? Then, we have a problem.”

At publishing time, Democrats had reportedly told the black man that all would be forgiven if he agreed to publicly apologize for his disobedience and pledge his allegiance to his masters.

I want him to hold on.

There were many calls for Winston Churchill to resign when he refused to make compromising overtures to the Germans in WWII.

Just sayin’.
