    As a child of the Cold War with the Soviets as America’s enemy, when the wall came down and the threat of Communism faded, I was under the illusion that the world had inexorably turned a corner and that history was on the march to bring freedom, capitalism, and prosperity to the whole world... The events of September 11 exposed that illusion for what it really was: a delusion. There were actually people out there who wanted to start a war with the United States. With 9/11 and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Islam went from an almost nonexistent...
  • WATCH: LA Mayor Humiliatingly Announces Her City Is So Covered in Graffiti that It Might Not Be Ready to Host the World Cup

    In an embarrassing moment, woke Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass admitted that her city was in such bad shape following the anti-ICE riots that it might not be ready to host the World Cup, pointing to how much graffiti had been left behind by rioters acting out in opposition to President Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration. For background, on June 10, 2025, LA Mayor Karen Bass reflected on the impact of the anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protests that broke out on June 6 and culminated in the dispatching of the National Guard and the Marines by President Trump. During...
  • So now it's a Muslim Marxist to lead New York: A requiem

    Sure as the sun rises, Mamdani will turn New York into a third world dump. At the very least, New York City has collapsed. If Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei should someday soon be kicked out of Persia, it is possible he could come to New York, where he would likely be elected mayor. The sequence of NYC mayors is astounding. From Guliani to Bloomberg to de Blasio to Adams. And perhaps soon to Zohran Mamdani, an avowed Marxist who has previously indicated his desire to “globalize the intifada.” (Mamdani defeated three-term ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the June 24th mayoral primary.)...

    Several Communist refugees and New York pols expressed outrage Monday after a clip resurfaced of presumptive Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani noting that one of his goals is “seizing the means of production.” “After [the] Red October Socialist Revolution in 1917, Bolsheviks seized means of production, jailed or killed business owners, eliminated freedoms & took over private farms & food stores,” former Brooklyn City Councilman and Communist refugee Ari Kagan wrote on X. “I would never imagine NYC would consider this failed & dangerous government model.” Kagan, a Belarus native who grew up under Soviet-style communism, further told The Post...

    City leaders gathered outside a federal New York detention center on Saturday to call for more transparency from Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. New York Rep. Nydia Velazquez held a news conference outside the Federal Plaza Immigration Court to spotlight her bill, the "No Masks For ICE" Act. The proposed bill would ban ICE agents from wearing face coverings during arrests and require them to clearly display their name and agency. Velazquez introduced the bill in response to recent instances in New York City and across the U.S. of ICE agents conducting arrests while masked, unmarked and operating in plainclothes....

    The homeless man accused of a shooting spree in Santa Monica has been charged with three counts of attempted murder amid a wave of violence from transients that has Los Angeles residents on edge. David John Hairston II, 31, allegedly ambushed and shot a police officer at a pedestrian mall in the seaside enclave on Wednesday, just days after allegedly shooting two teens who were riding a self-driving taxi, according to prosecutors. Hairston was arrested after a citywide manhunt; he faces various weapons charges on top of the attempted murders, with a maximum sentence of 104 years to life in...

    Politician Eric Adams, a former NYPD officer, state senator, and Brooklyn borough president—and, yes, a former Republican—can add New York City mayor to his résumé… According to Politico, Adams was a registered Republican from 1995 to 2002. And according to City Limits, Adams said in 1995 that Republican values aligned with those of some Black voters, and by 1999, he was labeling himself a conservative Republican. Years later, in 2013, Adams said he switched parties only out of concerns that New York City Democrats were “too soft on crime.” And his friend Norman Siegel, former head of the New York...

    Squatters have been wreaking havoc in parts of Los Angeles, setting fires and even carrying out a random attack in a troubling rash of violence that has left residents frightened. The chaos first cropped up in Beverly Grove after an abandoned apartment complex was recently taken over by a group of vagrants. “It’s been absolutely terrifying. We are on hold with our lives right now until this is resolved,” Anita Cavallo, a woman who lives in the Beverly Grove area, told ABC7.

    Right-wing influencers have reacted to New York State Assembly member Zohran Mamdani’s apparent win in New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary with anti-Islam attacks. “.@ZohranKMamdani hasn’t even been a US citizen for 10 years. He is literally supported by terrorists. NYC is about to see 9/11 2.0,” right-wing activist Laura Loomer, who has a history of anti-Muslim comments, said on the social platform X late Tuesday. Mamdani, a democratic socialist, shocked American political observers Tuesday as he seemed to be on the path to winning the Democratic nomination for the Big Apple’s mayor over former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo....

    New York needs a wakeup call. Desperately. The AP reports that democrats are fretting about Zohran Mamdani's rise in the mayoral race. Many progressives cheered the emergence of the young and charismatic Mamdani, whose candidacy caught on with viral campaign videos and a focus on the cost of living. But the party’s more pragmatic wing cast the outcome as a serious setback in their quest to broaden Democrats’ appeal and move past the more controversial policies that alienated would-be voters in recent elections. And it's not just Republicans Lawrence Summers, the Treasury Secretary under former Democratic President Barack Obama, aired...

    Mayor Eric Adams announced his re-election campaign Thursday on the steps of New York City Hall, surrounded by supporters, union leaders and business partners, while protesters called him a "criminal" from across the park. Adams was elected as a Democrat in 2021 but chose to run as an independent this year amid low approval ratings and his since-dropped federal corruption charges. In Adams' absence, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo was widely expected to pick up the Democratic nomination in Tuesday's primary election, but 33-year-old self-proclaimed Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani shocked the political establishment when he declared victory. "This is a city...

    This isn’t Barack Obama’s party anymore. It’s AOC’s. It’s Ilhan Omar’s. And now, it’s Mamdani’sFor years, the Democratic machine in New York managed to contain its most radical flank with centrist figures like Eric Adams and, before him, Michael Bloomberg. But that firewall has crumbled. Mamdani, backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, the Working Families Party, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is ushering in a new era – one that reads more like a utopian manifesto than a functioning blueprint for the nation’s largest metropolis.Under Zohran’s New York, we’re looking at government-owned grocery stores, free public transit and permanent political handcuffs...

    New York State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, a candidate in the 2025 New York City mayoral race, has sparked intense debate with a striking pledge: if elected mayor, he would order the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he set foot in the city. In a recent interview, Mamdani articulated a vision for New York City that aligns its actions with international law, even in the face of federal resistance and the United States’ non-signatory status to the International Criminal Court (ICC). When pressed by the interviewer on what he would do if Netanyahu visited New York City during...

Johnson said, “Governor Abbott spent over $220 million to ship people across America. Instead of working with Congress to actually pass substantive immigration reform policy. They wanted to create division, but we’re not going to allow that to happen in the city of Chicago. Much like we fought for civil rights 60 years ago, we’re going to continue to make sure that whether you are black, brown, Asian, white, young, old, working people deserve to...

Since then, Democrat after Democrat has warned what enforcing immigration law means (but...
