Happy Constitution Day!   Don Willett,  a judge on the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, has an excellent article in the Wall Street Journal – Happy Constitution Day, if you can keep it! Our Constitution created a republic that gives We the People the ability to govern ourselves…if we can keep it. 

Last Thursday’s New York primary makes one wonder if we can.

This article in Saturday’s NY Post should make people think twice about whether we can we keep We the People informed enough to keep our Constitution, with its three separate but equal branches, as the Republic the Founding Fathers envisioned.   

Another reason to be concerned that We the People may self-implode is the fact that even when corruption was apparent, newly elected officials seem to continue down the same trail.

Daily Update

Governor Andrew Cuomo’s week isn’t getting any better.  The New York Post continues to inform the residents of New York State of what lengths Gov. Cuomo will go to in order to retain the title Governor, despite the machinations to keep his fingerprints off the evidence.  

It is disturbing that Governor Andrew Cuomo is so driven to match Mario’s record as Governor and the devious ways he tries to make it happen.   Upstate New York is feeling the effects of our best and brightest leaving New York as soon as humanly possible due to the dire economic conditions.  It didn’t have to be this way, if Governor Andrew Cuomo were truly concerned about his constituents.  As the NY Post editorial points out, Fracking helped make the US the world’s oil king.  New York State could have benefited, but, Governor Andrew Cuomo preferred to cater to the few, extremely loud, progressive naysayers opposed to fracking, and ignored the plight of New York’s own citizens.   

It is time to end Governor Andrew Cuomo’s government career that has cost New Yorkers untold so very much, in dollars and heartache.

City Council Speaker Corey Johnson, a Democrat, obviously missed biology classes (or failed them miserably.)  This is legislation that he and the democratically controlled City Council is proud of:   “New Yorkers will no longer need a doctor’s note to change their gender on their birth certificates, and will no longer be treated as if their identity was a medical issue.”  More emphasis should be on this at home and in biology classes:  Boys, girls are different – and that’s just the truth.

Michael Goodwin’s column in today’s NY Post reminds New Yorkers that Gov. Andrew Cuomo has been playing dirty politics for years.  As Mr. Goodwin points out in his column, Gov. Cuomo is convinced we conservatives – who do not agree with his policy and politics – have no place in New York.  In fact, anyone who is not in lock step with him has been the brunt of his ugly, unseemly, dirty politics.  What does this say about the people who vote, support and carry out his demeaning style of politics?   The NY Post editorial sums the Governor’s problems us succinctly:  Andrew Cuomo has no credibility left.   Even the newspaper he has in his pocket – the NY Times – wrote about how ahead of the Primary, Cuomo Administration Offered Sweeteners to Get New Bridge Open.

Daily Update

Governor Andrew Cuomo let his ego drive the weekend news and the results were disastrous for his campaign.  He rushed to open “The bridge” too soon;  the opening was delayed; it’s safe, but beware; staff were in the dark about opening “The Bridge”’; his own brother said “Pop would not have liked this.”  Then it was made public that an EZ-Pass mailer reads like Cuomo campaign brochure.  Those two things were bad enough, but then the NY Democratic Party (Gov. Andrew Cuomo is the de facto leader) put out a mailing implying Cynthia Nixon is anti-Semitic – hitting a new low in political mailings.  To make matters worse, no one will acknowledge publicly who approved the mailing.  Everyone knows Gov. Andrew Cuomo is a self-proclaimed micromanager, yet he said he did not know about the mailing.  Oh, and let us not forget that Gov. Cuomo has no problem in letting sex offenders into schools to vote.   

A voter should be informed, know whom they are casting their vote for, who they want representing them, if they have the same values.  The articles above make a very strong case against early voting.

With all of the pain, sadness, and distress of 9/11, there were many heroes on that fateful day who prevented even more bloodshed; here is one from Flight 93 that National Review (Notes & Asides) printed on May 10, 2002 and has graciously given us permission to link to it.

Unbelievable!  Talk about headline grabbing…the confidential emails Sen. Cory Booker “released” for dramatic effect at today’s hearings were already cleared to be released.   Sen. Booker, and other democrats, appear to be slightly unhinged regarding Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation.  Imagine how the main stream media would react to their shenanigans if they were republican senators objecting to a democratic nominee.

Governor Cuomo’s Desperate Ploy for Votes Defies the Law and Endangers Voters

Brooklyn, NY — Conservative Party State Chairman, Michael R. Long, is calling on all New Yorkers to tell Governor Andrew Cuomo that his latest desperate ploy for votes defies current law that states quite clearly that a convicted Level 3 sexual predator is banned from stepping within 1,000 feet of schools.

Last May, Governor Cuomo unilaterally issued a blanket pardon giving parolees the right to vote. Now, this same desperate Governor, had the state Department of Correctional Service create a “special condition” that would allow a paroled sexual predator to vote at a polling place in a particular school…after getting special permission from his parole officer and a school administrator.

This is blatantly defying the law. Governor Cuomo’s “special condition” would allow the paroled sexual predator to enter a school after 7:00 PM; despite the fact that many schools have evening activities. Will the predator be supervised when voting? Will the sexual predator be able to use a unisex bathroom once they have voted? How will their parole officer know they left the school once they cast their ballot?

Governor Cuomo’s desperate attempt for votes is encouraging a convicted sexual predator to break the law and ultimately violate their parole agreements. Andrew Cuomo is so determined to win his primary that he has lost all sense of responsibility for the safety of New York’s citizens while he ignores the quagmire he has created for the convicted level 3 sexual predator.

Chairman Long urges Governor Cuomo to abandon his desperate ploy for votes; rescind the “special condition” that allows specific parolees to break the current established law and keep sexual predators the required 1,000 feet from schools where citizens will be voting.

Daily Update

Governor Cuomo really enjoys “pointing the finger” at anyone who can turn a political predicament away from him.  Obviously, the NY Times has no interest in exploring the morass created by Crystal Run’s donations to the Governor and endorsed him yesterday; anyone surprised by the Times endorsement?  The NY Post, on the other hand, paints an accurate picture of Governor Cuomo.

Daily Update

The left is never satisfied.  Today’s Senate Hearings to confirm Brett Kavanaugh as a Supreme Court Justice began the way one might expect from a movement that demands tolerance, yet, is unable to be tolerant.  Reminder:   call Sen. Schumer and Sen. Gillibrand and let them know you expect an honest, non-political discussion regarding Brett Kavanaugh qualifications.  You can bet the Democrats regret changing the Senate rules.  Dems vow rules overhaul to empower members if House flips…and impeachment talks.

E. J. McMahon lets us know that New York public school enrollments are back to 1989-90 levels, and still falling.  (The facts included in E. J. McMahon’s report are good to know when the Teacher’s Union puts the pressure on the Members of the Legislature that they need more money.) 

Part of the reason school enrollment is declining is the outmigration of our residents.   Cuomo’s doing nothing about the burdens that drive people to flee New York.  Governor Cuomo promotes ideas like this that he hopes will keep people in New York, but it actually drives out businesses out of New York and brings workers with them.

Election year pandering by Governor Cuomo is in full swing has he told a congregation on Sunday that he will help families sue the Trump Administration for failure to provide adequate assistance during Hurricane Maria in 2017. Cuomo said the Trump administration violated Puerto Ricans’ Constitutional rights of equal protection under the law.  Seems to me the government of Puerto Rico should be held responsible for the terrible mismanagement of the Island that brought it to the verge of bankruptcy for years.
