The Heritage Foundation gives President-elect Trump ways to end sanctuary cities. 

Thanks to Hans von Spakovsky we have learned that the head of DOJ’s Civil Rights Division Is violating federal law and her actions may be void.  The Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, did not advise President Obama of his oversight in not officially nominating Vanita Gupta for the position.  Maybe she was too busy talking to former president Bill Clinton to notice that the head of the Civil Rights Division was not legally appointed or perhaps no one cared as long as their bidding was being done.

There is no surprise with this announcement:  Sen. Chuck Schumer is the new Senate Minority Leader.  Fortunately for us, not the Majority Leader, but he will still be a problem to work with as he is quite the partisan and his lieutenants prove the Senate will be difficult to work with. 

If Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN) is elected as the Chair of the DNC expect it to lean more left than under the leadership of Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.  If he is elected, rest assured they learned nothing from the 2016 elections. 

Here is more on the Sanctuary City plan to “protect immigrants” from President-Elect Trump.  From the O’Reilly Factor last night:  Continuing on the subject of sanctuary cities, The Factor asked Kimberly Guilfoyle and Lis Wiehl to examine the legal aspects. “The federal government cannot compel any local agency to round up illegal aliens,” Wiehl asserted. “Under the Tenth Amendment, any right not directly given to the feds is given to the states, and the feds cannot commandeer local agencies to arrest people.” Guilfoyle elaborated on the separation of powers between the federal government and local authorities, saying, “The states are considered to be sovereign entities distinct from the federal government, which cannot usurp their authority.” However, both Wiehl and Guilfoyle agreed that the federal government can force local authorities to hold on to criminal illegal immigrants who are already in custody.   Rush Limbaugh has this to say to Governor Cuomo and others ” “Fine, you want to do this? You keep it up and I’m going to impound every dime of federal money your cities are getting. I am not going to sit here and openly tolerate lawlessness like you are encouraging, Governor Cuomo.” Illegal immigration is illegal. 

This is the headline in US News and World Reports (Not known for their conservative stance):  Stop Teaching Anti-Trump Bias.

Teachers OK’d students skipping class to join anti-Trump protests.  Seriously?  What is wrong with these teachers? 

This will not go over well with some legislators, however, taxpayers may benefit from it.  Politico has more on the lack of a pay raise for legislators.

Wednesday’s with Walter E. Williams. 

Crain’s of New York has an in-depth article — High taxes and limited enforcement have New York City awash in illegal booze and cigarettes; Bootlegging deprives New York state of at least $1.6 billion in annual tax revenue. It’s only growing — because of the serious nature of this growing problem it is our only article today. 

Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio are both living in their own worlds and have little respect for the people who are outside their circle.  The Syracuse Post headline read “Cuomo on Trump: We won’t allow federal government that ‘attacks immigrants’.”  The article contains this quote from the Governor, “If any immigrant feels that they are under attack, I want them to know the state of New York — the state that has the Statue of Liberty in its harbor — is their refuge,” Cuomo said. “…We won’t allow a federal government that attacks immigrants in our state.” 

Mayor de Blasio said this “We are not going to sacrifice a half-million people who live among us, who are part of our community,” he said. “We are not going to tear families apart,” which lead to this NY Daily News Editorial “De Blasio stands tall: Kudos to the mayor for committing to protect New York’s undocumented immigrant population.”  NYC may even “scrub” records of undocumented immigrants. 

Two days later, Gov, Cuomo doubled down and the headline reads “Cuomo vows to ‘stand up’ for New Yorkers against Trump, and even sent a fundraising email stating ““Whether you are gay or straight, Muslim or Christian, rich or poor, black or white or brown, we respect all people in the state of New York…”  the exceptions, of course,  are Conservatives.    

These two men who swore/affirmed/pledged to uphold the United States Constitution have clearly stated they have contempt for the system outlined in the one document they used to become elected officials in the greatest country ever. 

This is why Donald J. Trump is President-Elect Trump.

Monday’s with Robert Knight. 

 

 

American’s Freedoms would be lost
 without the dedication of our Veterans.

We are forever grateful.
 Thank you for your service. 

 

In Your Honor

Unselfishly, you left your fathers and your mothers,

You left behind your sisters and your brothers.
Leaving your beloved children and wives,

You put on hold, your dreams-your lives.
On foreign soil, you found yourself planted

To fight for those whose freedom you granted.
Without your sacrifice, their cause would be lost

 But you carried onward, no matter the cost.

Many horrors you had endured and seen.

Many faces had haunted your dreams.
You cheered as your enemies littered the ground;

 You cried as your brothers fell all around.

When it was over, you all came back home,

Some were left with memories to face all alone;
Some found themselves in the company of friends

 As their crosses cast shadows across the land.

Those who survived were forever scarred

Emotionally, physically, permanently marred.
Those who did not now sleep eternally

 ‘Neath the ground they had given their lives to keep free.

With a hand upon my heart, I feel The pride and respect; my reverence is revealed
In the tears that now stream down my upturned face

 As our flag waves above you, in her glory and grace.
Freedom was the gift that you unselfishly gave

Pain and death was the price that you ultimately paid.
Every day, I give my utmost admiration

To those who had fought to defend our nation.

President-elect Donald Trump – that has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? 

So does GreatAgain.gov – the new website for the Trump transition team.

How did you spend Election Night 2016? That’s the first question in our new Weekly Poll – being posted one day early this week since the Conservative Party will be celebrating Veterans Day tomorrow. 

Why were the media and the polls so wrong about Donald Trump? Because the media elites and pollsters wanted to be right about Hillary Clinton. 

Here’s some good analysis of why Hillary Clinton lost the White House. 

Were you shocked by her defeat?  I’ve heard from plenty people who couldn’t believe it, and plenty who could see it coming, so I’ve made this the second question in our new Weekly Poll.

A glass ceiling was broken on Tuesday night, as Kellyanne Conway became the first woman to run a successful presidential campaign. Plenty of women voted for Donald Trump, but the liberals and their media/Hollywood friends want you to believe that our new President won because Americans are sexist. They’re wrong: Hillary lost because she was Hillary. 

As protests and violent rhetoric erupt across the nation from angry Clinton voters, the New York Post urges Democrats to get past their hysteria and move on. 

After celebrating his historic victory, Mr. Trump is getting to work, and made a visit to the White House today. 

What do you think should be President-elect Trump’s FIRST priority when he takes office? That’s the third and final question on our new Weekly Poll. Lots of great options to choose from!

I mentioned Veterans Day, which is an important and historically significant day. Now more than ever, let’s strive to honor those who serve every day. 

Have a great weekend!

Chairman Long appeared on Good Day this morning to discuss President-Elect Trump’s amazing win.  Watch it here. 

We the people control our government!  Our Founding Fathers gave us — we the people — the ability to control our destiny and we have spoken:  Donald J. Trump is the President-Elect. 

If you missed his compelling acceptance speech, watch it here. 

Congratulations Mr. Trump.  We wish you well in your new position — the most important, critical job you have ever undertaken — we will stand with you when you are right and let you know if you stray from your commitments to the American people.  We the people have trusted you with our future and we the people will be watching as you and the Republican House and Senate work together to make America great again.

Jim DeMint writing in the Daily Signal says:  The People Have Spoken: Change Must Start Now.  As conservatives, we both (Heritage Foundation and CPNYS)  know it may be difficult to accomplish what is necessary, but the Heritage Foundation and CPNYS will be there to help make America great again.

Paul Ryan: Donald Trump Has a Mandate and Will Lead a Unified Republican Party. 

Hillary was gracious in her concession speech and reminded us how much it hurts. 

Obama, the Democratic disaster. 

Donald Trump’s win signals the end of Obamacare as we know it. 

Michael Goodwin opines on Trump’s victory as a win for the little guy over the elites. 

It’s Trump! Stunning outsider victory for 45th president. 

The main stream media tried to control the election and became the biggest loser of the campaign.

Trump beats the media and the establishment in pulling off the greatest upset ever. 

Trump’s huge election night changes US politics forever. 

Democrats Fail to Make Gains in NY State and Federal Races.   State Senate races a big win for GOP — and huge loss for de Blasio.

God Bless America!

Today is the day to protect what we hold dear — our religious freedom; our right to bear arms; our right, as American citizens, to control our government. 

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Our future is in our hands.  It is up to us to protect our Constitution —  No one is above the rule of law and that is what is this election is about.

Tuesday’s with Thomas Sowell:  Painful Choices and Painful Choices II

 

  The most important election of our lives takes place tomorrow.  If Hillary Clinton is elected, the rule of law (the principle that all people and institutions are subject to and accountable to law that is fairly applied and enforced) will be forever gone…the very essence of America will be destroyed by the people who give her the honor of being the leader of the free world.   Has America made mistakes, yes, but electing a person with a trail of ignoring laws and exploiting situations will give that person Carte Blanche to continue to do as they please with no fear of being curtailed or indicted. 

This is what Hillary wants.  This is part of what Hillary does and would continue.  

This is also what she will continue. 

This is Hillary’s closest confidant. 

This is how Hillary will tank our economy. 

Those faulty Watergate comparisons.  Hillary Clinton’s high crimes put those of Richard Nixon in the deep shade. 

This is what President Obama has given us. 

There is hope…Americans have always been for fair play and against cheaters.

Donald Trump offers a way to stop the corruption that has occurred and that may continue because it can with friends in high places.  The NY Sun opines on Donald Trump’s Optimism.

Trump Lead Widens To 2, His Biggest Yet, Despite ‘November Surprise’: IBD/TIPP Poll. 

According to Governor Cuomo, I am a “rabid Conservative” albeit I am not in Washington, DC.  I do want to impede the functions of government, especially when government does things like Start-Up NY and other equally costly programs. $10 million could educate a lot of children.   For all government’s talk about an equal playing field, why does government insist on playing favorites?  Could it possibly be “Pay-to-Play”?

V O T E   T O M O R R O W!

 

No matter who wins the election on Tuesday, the first thing I will do is say a prayer for our nation and our new President. I’m sure all Conservative Party backers will do the same. 

But then what? Do you have a plan – serious or tongue-in-cheek – for the aftermath of a Hillary victory? And what will be on your mind if (as I hope) Donald Trump takes the White House? 

Those are the two questions for our new Weekly Poll. I’m sure you can have some fun with both of these questions. 

“It’s not just that the Clintons will bend every rule and try to destroy anyone who gets in their way, they will enlist everyone on their side to do the same,” Rich Lowry writes in the New York Post, surveying the left’s new smear campaign against FBI chief James Comey. “This is how a Clinton administration will work. Consider yourself warned — again.”

It seems like more and more Republicans are finally getting the message – that we MUST elect Donald Trump and defeat Hillary. 

And all of Hillary’s latest controversies might be a tipping point for undecided voters. 

As Investor’s Business Daily notes, Hillary’s deceitful stonewalling strategy is backfiring in a big way. 

Endless scandal is a given if Hillary wins – she even lies about lying about her lies. 

And it’s clearer than ever that America is not safe as long as Hillary has access to classified info.  The FBI has found Hillary emails on Anthony Weiner’s laptop, and they’re NOT duplicates from the previous investigation. Plus, her private server was breached by up to seven different forces. 

Investor’s Business Daily has a clearinghouse of info on the Clinton email scandals, as well as all the Clinton Foundation wrongdoing.

Have a great weekend!

Charles Hurt writes a compelling article in the Washington Times.. “The depth of her dishonesty and the breadth of her corruption is unmatched in history.”  Read the rest here.  

Hillary’s words are so empty…remember when she quoted Michele Obama’s “when they go low, we go high,” well, once again Hillary proves that she will say or do what ever she can to become the first woman president.  Clinton goes negative in campaign’s final week.

Michael Goodwin opines on how this presidential race is the low-water mark of American journalism.  “Never before have so many media organizations, old and new, abandoned all pretense of fairness to take sides and try to pick a president.”

We expect the President of the same party to support his successor, however, President Obama is grasping at straws when he makes this ridiculous statement:  “…sexism is to blame for the tight race for the White House…”

The pressure is getting to Hillary….
