Daily Update

The latest news from Albany is sure to make you wonder if there are any real consequences for breaking laws that fall into the felony categories.  We understand the need for second chances, however, if people who have served their time were rehabilitated, we would not have had the need to pass the three strikes bill (even the current proposal for criminal justice reform, keeps a minimum of 25 years for 3 strikes).   Senator Benjamin will be introducing legislation to allow felons to serve on jury duty.  The voir dire process, could easily become comprised with the prosecutors running out of challenges early on; as the article notes, Chairman Long thinks it is a “bad idea.” 

Yesterday’s NY Post editorial gave us more information on Governor Andrew Cuomo’s leftist agenda. 

Ken Lovett writes in today’s NY Daily News that Progressive victories in early 2019 could propel Cuomo if he runs for President.

Daily Update

Little by little, Governor Andrew Cuomo and the democratic controlled legislature, are telling New Yorkers’ of their plans for the future.  Had they been honest prior to the elections, the results would, most likely, have been different.   Maybe if there was more than one debate —dominated by The Bully who was too afraid to tell us his plans — County Executive Marc Molinaro would be Governor-Elect. What is strange is that he thinks letting illegals have driver’s licenses  – that open the door to other privilege’s  – will play well in the 2020 elections.  Will the driver’s license the Governor and the democratic controlled legislature plan to allow undocumented immigrants have, be obviously NOT Real ID  compliant to all it may be presented to?

The democratic controlled state of New York should also be aware of the fallacy of single-payer health care.

Perhaps in the future this will actually happen,  since it requires a referendum by the voters.  We can only hope that voters would eliminate this unnecessary office and the inflated budget that goes with it.

Daily Update

Before the elections on Tuesday, Gov. Cuomo did not put forth what he hoped to accomplish in his third term, we now know his leftist agenda. Governor, the Republican majority passed ethics reform, what did you do to encourage Speaker Heastie to pass ethics reform?  If I remember right, you claimed you passed the strongest ethics reform early in your first term …and we all know how well that turned out.

Will Democrats Overplay Their (Relatively Weak) Hand? 

What simply amazes me is the extremes that the Left pursue in their disapproval of President Trump’s tweets and some of the aggressive ways he handles himself and his perception of others.  They criticize his unique style and call him unpresidential.  Well, this mob is obviously  oblivious to common courtesy , and incapable of seeing that what they are doing is completely unamerican.  In fact, not only is it unamerican, it is very close to being illegal; free speech does not protect mob rule.  Guy Benson has the latest on this atrocity. 

Daily Update

Election day is in the books.  On the positive side, all the campaign commercials are over.  New York City elected the Governor for the whole state and as the NY Post editorial points out, it is an empty victory; and upstate is now in the hands of progressive democrats who control both legislative houses as well as every state wide position 

Marc Molinaro won in 44 counties and to the people who voted on the Conservative Party Line, we THANK You for keeping us on Row C. 

Kudos to all our candidates for fighting the good fight despite the main stream media’s bias that displays itself constantly and the not so subtle jabs from the entertainment world.  It is not easy to run for office – not that it should be – but being a conservative republican in a deeply blue state is akin to being that last morsel of food in the desert being eyed by various starving animals.

If you read this article covering Gov. Cuomo’s election night speech, you will notice how he hammers President Trump immediately when he says, “We know his type too well. The president has defrauded this nation two years ago when he said he was for the middle class…”  Governor, apparently you have forgotten how you pulled the wool over New Yorkers eyes when you claimed to be for the middle class and for the last 8 years how you have gone on to disparage that same middle class.  President Trump has kept his promises – you have not, but I imagine you will now that your true progressive colors have been put on full display. 

New York City approves all 3 City Charter Revisions.   Great, more tax dollars to be used by politicians to get elected to pass laws that will cost even more tax dollars.

Daily Update

The NY Post editorial opined on Cuomo’s pre-election payoff to a major union.   The editorial ends with this: “Cuomo’s excuse for staying off the campaign trail, even skipping the League of Women Voters debate in Albany last week, is that he’s too busy doing state business. Too busy making the state government do his business is more like it.” 

Governor Cuomo no longer looks at the voters of New York as constituents he can help, we have become constituents that serve HIS needs and wants.  .  It is time to remind Gov. Cuomo that our government was founded as We the People; not for elected officials who believe they are supreme and can do as they wish.

We the People have to make our voices heard tomorrow:  GOVERNMENT SERVES US, WE THE PEOPLE DO NOT SERVE GOVERNMENT.  Send the message, vote on the Conservative Line.   

The two major newspapers in New York City believe Jonathan Trichter should be the comptroller of New York State.  In case you missed this yesterday, here is what the NY Daily News said on Sunday and the NY Post said on October 29, 2018

As a quick reminder, the NY Post also endorsed Marc Molinaro , Chele Farley, and Keith Wofford.  Please forward to your family and friends and ask them to also send a message by voting on the Conservative Line.

The Syracuse Post also endorsed Marc Molinaro  stating, in part, that “Cuomo had his chance. In 2013, he appointed a Moreland Commission to investigate Albany’s culture of corruption. He disbanded it in 2014, before it could finish its work. Out of Moreland’s ashes came this year’s corruption trials over the Buffalo Billion, the film hub and the LED lighting factory in DeWitt. The hard-charging governor demanded results; testimony revealed how far his staff would go to deliver. The end result was a series of ill-conceived projects in Central New York and an embarrassment for his administration.”

E. J. McMahon lets us know that a Key Cuomo budget update is late—again   Certainly not because the Governor was preparing for debates , rather he was quietly raising hospital Medicaid rates  and paying off his union buddies (see above.)

The Empire Center also opines on the Tax Cap

Statement by Chairman Michael R. Long on Despicable Mailer by Congressional Candidate Perry Gershon

Brooklyn, NY – I have been in politics for over 50 years and this mailer by Congressional candidate Perry Gershon is the most despicable mailer I have ever seen. If Perry Gershon, who has campaigned on the fact that in his mind there are similarities between President Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler — the person responsible for the carnage of the Holocaust — is elected to Congress it will be a sad commentary on what America has become.

How a person can send such a vile, despicable, hateful mailer is beyond reason and speaks volumes about the person responsible for sending it.

This is what Perry Gershon’s campaign mailed:

Daily Update

The Attorney General debate took place last evening, if you missed it, you can watch it here.  Be sure to watch the “cross examination question” (each candidate gets to ask the other a question) at the 31:00 mark.  It speaks volumes.  By the way, Letitia James flip-flops on death penalty during AG debate. 

There is less than a week before the elections.  Please make the time to watch all the debates (they are linked to the candidate’s pages under The Debate) and trust your own judgement instead of reading the highlights that a reporter interpreted for you.  Be an informed voter. 

Good on Marc Molinaro for calling out the Albany fat cats.
