RADICAL SOCIALIST TO BE NEXT DISTRICT ATTORNEY?

 The New York City Board of Elections is now recounting votes for the Democratic primary for Queens district attorney. The race is too close to call, but the first vote count showed that radical socialist public defender Tiffany Caban won the election by 1,070 votes.

 “I don’t take anything for granted. We are going to work very hard to make sure we win the election in November, as well,” Caban said to reporters.

 Caban is a self-described queer Latina who was endorsed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. According to the New York Daily News, her platform is to decriminalize sex work and end cash bail. She would also refuse to prosecute many offenses including trespassing, loitering, airport taxis, turnstile jumping, disorderly conduct, drug possession and welfare fraud.

 It would be free reign for criminals in Queens, and if the vote holds up, this shows the rising power of the progressive left and who will inevitably run the country if the demographic shift is not reversed.

 “Queens communities especially have shown how powerful they are,” Cabán said. “We are organizing our elected officials in line with our values.”

 The recount is expected to be finished by next week.

 ‘WORKING MAN’ JOE BIDEN IS REALLY A CHAMPAGNE SOCIALIST

 Contrary to his working man image, Biden is cashing out based on being former President Barack Obama’s right-hand man, making millions since leaving office as Vice President and spending time in lavish mansions.

 “My parents taught us to live our faith and to treasure our families. We learned the dignity of work, and we were told that anyone can make it if they just try hard enough. That was America’s promise,” Biden said in 2008, a sentiment he has echoed frequently throughout the years.

 “Work is more than a paycheck. It’s dignity. It’s respect. It’s about whether or not you can look your children in the eye and say: We’re going to be all right,” Biden added.

 However, the substance of Biden is much different than the rhetoric. He is getting paid up to $200,000 per speech these days, enjoying chartered jets, chauffeured rides, fancy cars, luxury hotels, and other decadent amenities. His 12,000 square-foot home in McLean, Virginia includes five bedrooms, marble fireplaces, a gym, sauna, and 10 bathrooms. The Bidens have also purchased a $3 million beach house in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

 “Remember, I got in trouble with some of the people on my team, on the Democratic side, because I said, you know, what I’ve found is rich people are just as patriotic as poor people,” Biden said recently, as the champagne socialist is already beginning to change his tune.

 It will be hard for Biden to keep his lead on his competition heading into 2020 considering how out of step he is with the radicalized Democratic Party base.

  TRUMP HOLDS OFF DEPORTATION PUSH

 President Donald Trump has called off his nationwide deportation push temporarily, giving the Democratic-led Congress time to come up with a workable solution.

 Trump wrote in a tweet: “At the request of Democrats, I have delayed the Illegal Immigration Removal Process (Deportation) for two weeks to see if the Democrats and Republicans can get together and work out a solution to the Asylum and Loophole problems at the Southern Border. If not, Deportations start!”

 “I want to give the Democrats every last chance to quickly negotiate simple changes to Asylum and Loopholes. This will fix the Southern Border, together with the help that Mexico is now giving us. Probably won’t happen, but worth a try. Two weeks and big Deportation begins!” Trump wrote in a subsequent tweet.

 Meanwhile, Democrats and their allies in the fake news media are calling Trump a “Nazi” and saying that facilities housing migrants are “concentration camps.” It does not seem like Trump will ever be able to negotiate with these people in good faith. He should get on with the deportations before the national emergency at the U.S. Southern border gets even worse.

Welcome to the Conservative Party’s Weekly Wrap-Up for June 20, 2019!

 MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION FAILS IN LEGISLATURE

 Apparently there are limits for the loony left, even with extremist Gov. Andrew Cuomo as the figurehead for New York Democrats. We saw that this week when legalization of marijuana failed in the New York legislature.

 “It is clear now that [the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act] is not going to pass this session,” said Democratic state Sen. Liz Krueger (D), who was the sponsor of the legislation.

 Cuomo is a major proponent of legalization, and hoped it would be included in this year’s state budget, but those efforts failed. The Conservative Party, who has been fighting to keep a strong prohibition against marijuana in place is celebrating a victory as a result of this news along with SAM who joined our New York fight this year.

 “The predatory pot industry wanted legislators to believe that this was simple,” said Kevin Sabet, who heads the anti-legalization group Smart Approaches to Marijuana. “The industry told people it would rain money for a host of pet projects, that our young people wouldn’t be at risk and drugged driving concerns were overblown. Thankfully, New York’s parents, doctors, law enforcement, teachers and many lawmakers didn’t fall for the con.”

 But the pot smokers  are down but not out, as Krueger notes they will be back during the next legislative session to try their same scheme once again.

 “This is not the end of the road, it is only a delay. Unfortunately, that delay means countless more New Yorkers will have their lives up-ended by unnecessary and racially disparate enforcement measures before we inevitably legalize,” Krueger said.

 EXTREME GLOBAL WARMING BILL HEADS TO CUOMO’S DESK

 Although marijuana legalization failed, a different type of green menace is coming to harm New York residents as a bill is on Gov. Cuomo’s desk that would cripple the New York economy underneath burdensome taxes and regulations meant to stop global warming.

 The “Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act” passed the Assembly by a 104-35 margin and passed the Senate by a 41-21 margin. Gov. Cuomo intends to sign the legislation into law, and far-left environmentalist groups are crowing as a result.

 “New York has now legally committed itself to the strongest climate and clean energy goals of any U.S. state,” said Peter Iwanowicz, executive director of Environmental Advocates of New York. “This will spur innovation, create green jobs, and make New York a true global climate leader.”

 In actuality, the legislation forces the state to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 85 percent over the next three decades. It will also mandate that 70 percent of New York’s electricity come from renewable sources within a decade.

 This means that New Yorkers will be paying astronomically higher prices for electricity until this coercive mandate is reversed. Experts say the legislation’s mandates are not even tenable.

 “Even if you put wind turbines on every square mile of land in the state, you would not come close to meeting the state’s existing demand for electricity,” Manhattan Institute adjunct fellow Jonathan Lesser said. “And you would need to cover most of the state with solar panels.”

 “Nothing New York does on its own will have any measurable impact on world climate,” Lesser added. “Nor, if this bill is signed into law, will developing nations suddenly say ‘Gee, New York passed a climate law. Let’s wreck our economies, too, to save the planet.’”

 PRESIDENT TRUMP KICKS OFF HIS 2020 CAMPAIGN

 President Donald Trump officially kicked off his 2020 re-election campaign in Orlando, FL earlier this week, as he hopes to keep America great with another term in the oval office.

 “Since the very first day I walked through the doors of the White House, I have never forgotten who sent me there,” Trump said to a packed house at his first official campaign rally for 2020. “You did.”

 “It turned out to be more than just a political campaign, it turned out to be a great political movement because of you,” he added. “A great movement.”

 Trump hammered the deep state conspiracy against him to undermine his ‘America First’ agenda during his speech.

 “Our patriotic movement has been under assault from the very first day,” Trump said.

 “It was all an illegal attempt to overturn the results of the election, spied on our campaign, which is what they did, and subvert our democracy,” he said.

 Despite the progress he has made as President to bring jobs and honor back to the United States, Trump made clear that his mission to drain the swamp is far from over.

 “The people trying to stop our movement are the same Washington insiders who spend their careers rigging the system so your losses will be their gains,” he said. “You know that.”

 He made clear that stakes are high, and that support for him in 2020 is crucial to keep the radical Democrats at bay while they wage war against the Bill of Rights and Constitution.

 “No matter what label they give, a vote for any Democrat in 2020 is a vote for the rise of radical socialism and destruction of the American Dream,” Trump said. “Don’t ever forget, this election is about you. It’s about your family, your future, and the fate of your country.”

This was a known fact prior to democratic legislators voting to give illegal immigrants driver’s licenses: Loophole in law granting illegal immigrants driver’s licenses could lead to voter fraud and they still voted for it…the cynical part of me thinks it could be because they only wanted the votes.    Here is Chairman Emeritus Long discussing the issue on Currents TV.

Again, the democratic controlled state, is dreaming the impossible dream.  Previous standards have not been met, yet, this bill, that caters to the AOC’s of the world, thinks it will be able to end fossil fuels.

In their haste to become progressive, the democratic majority is not thinking issues through.  Here is another example of proposed legislation that will accomplish the opposite of what the intent should be:  A rush to regulate PBM’s.

This is, without doubt, a federal case to watch.  Rest assured; it will reach the US Supreme Court:  Girls file federal discrimination complaint after transgender track wins.

Tom Homan: Trump is right to order illegal immigrants deported – Dems didn’t complain when Obama did it.

Was the reason that recreational marijuana apparently failed due to the fact that the leaders could not decide how the tax revenues would be distributed?  Seriously?  As we have noted many times, there is an opioid and drug crisis in New York (and the rest of the nation) and legislators are more concerned about distributing tax revenue than the health and welfare of their constituents.  Truly, their priorities are up-side-down and detrimental to New Yorkers!! (Be prepared, the legislative session is not over yet, so the horse-trading goes on and recreational marijuana could still pass, especially when you read the Tom Precious article and become aware of all the Plan B’s that are being considered.)

Google will tell you that AOC graduated from Boston University Cum Laude.  If BU graduated AOC with a Cum Laude degree, a word of advice to parents considering Boston University:  Rethink your decision to send your child there.  Congresswoman Ocasio- Cortez continues to insult the intelligence of New Yorkers, and still insists that America has in the past and presently forced people into concentration camps.  Maybe she just cut the important classes and it really isn’t Boston University fault she is blind to the truth.  Strange that ACO doesn’t have a bio posted on her congressional website.  Keep up the pressure, Bill Hemmer, AOC must apologize, not only to those whose families were condemned to death in the concentration camps, but also to all Americans who gave their lives and saved the world from the atrocities of the Nazi regime.

Wednesday’s with Walter E. Williams.

Those who serve in the NYS Legislature, take an oath to uphold our constitution.  They accept the responsibility to write laws that they expect people to abide by.  Yesterday, when they deliberately passed a bill that rewards people who are known to have NO respect for the laws that govern New Yorkers, they broke their oath and made a mockery of law-abiding citizens.  When the Governor signed said bill, he also broke his oath and sanctioned law breaking in New York state.  Why obey any laws now?  The elected officials who voted to give illegal immigrants a NYS driver’s license, do not belong in the NYS Legislature.  Governor Cuomo, who played the issue like a Stradivarius, signed the end of his political career when he signed the most flagrant disregard of the law that was passed to keep New Yorkers safe after the horrific attacks of September 11, 2001.  We will not forget.

Today begins the last week of session in the NYS Legislature.   They cannot go home soon enough!  This year has been a disaster for those of us who continue to live in New York State. The New York Times gives an overview of all of the progressive bills that will cause havoc in our cities and state.  Of course, the NY Times supports this agenda, and is pushing the fact that illegal immigrants should be granted licenses.   Just because their readership is in a nosedive, doesn’t mean they should call for programs that will bring our government closer to the socialistic government that runs Venezuela!

Then again, this may be another reason why socialism is on the rise, the Daily Signal opines on how victim mentality is pushing women toward socialism.

The NY Post editorial has this to say:  Moderate Dems need to revoke progressives’ license to drive state agenda.

The Buffalo News suggests that the recreational marijuana bill, has hit a snag, but the NY Post writes this: New York Senate is hashing out bill to legalize weed.  Why it is being considered is mindboggling when you know that drug abuse is destroying the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.  I would venture to say that everyone reading this blog has been touched by the plague of drug abuse, if not directly, most definitely indirectly.  Why on earth does the democratically controlled New York State want to encourage the use of a Schedule 1 drug?  Haven’t we seen enough of the trauma drugs cause in trafficking and use?  What message do we want to send our youth?  That marijuana is okay, and if a Schedule 1 drug is okay, why not all drugs?  Shame on the people pushing this.  The Washington Post, considered by most to be a progressive paper, ran this article yesterday:  Potent pot, vulnerable teens trigger concerns in first states to legalize marijuana.   Read the article, then send it to your local Senator and ask them how can they consider making marijuana available for recreational use?  Do we not learn from our mistakes?   Send the Washington Post article, now, time is running out.

Progressives just won’t admit the truth about opioids and the homeless.

DA David Soares (Albany County who originally won with Working Family Party support) has this Op-Ed in the NY Post:  The Legislature endangered the public by botching criminal-justice reform.  It always is stronger when a person who has supported criminal justice reform, realizes that some of the changes are not necessary and in fact dangerous.

Bob McManus echo’s our sentiments in his column:  Richard Carranza’s race-baiting politics are wearing thin.  Then there is this editorial:  Comrie wants more opportunity — Carranza’s just finding jobs for cronies.

Oh my, the Mayor will be so upset:  Cuomo announces new crackdown on fare-beaters, transit violence.

Thomas Homan: Here’s the truth about sanctuary cities.

BILL TO GIVE DRIVER’S LICENSES TO ILLEGALS MOVES FORWARD

 The Democrats in the New York Assembly, urged on by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, passed the “Driver’s License Access and Privacy Act” this week to reward illegal immigrants with driving privileges.

 The legislation, A.3675-B, will incentivize lawlessness, but Democrats are insisting that it will instead “create safer roads for all New Yorkers, boost the state’s economy and protect hardworking New Yorkers and their families” in their press release.

 Cayuga County Clerk Sue Dwyer said, “It is absolutely mind-boggling that the Democrat-controlled Senate and Assembly want to pass legislation that would allow people,who are in our country illegally, to walk up to a DMV counter to apply for a New York State driver’s license by giving DMV staff as little as a foreign document. First of all, we have no way of knowing its authenticity, and if we suspect that it’s a fraudulent document, we will not be allowed to question it.”

 “Not only will our roads throughout New York State be safer, but families of immigrants will have more peace of mind while their loved ones are on the roads,” said Assemblymember Crespo.

 The Democrats always do all that they can in order to make their invading third-world constituents feel at home.

 DEMOCRATS WANT TO LEGALIZE SEX WORK

 he Democrats in the legislature are using New York as an experiment for loony liberal policies, and it does not end with drivers licenses for illegals. They are even considering the decriminalization of prostitution as well.

 Sens. Jessica Ramos and Julia Salazar are planning to introduce the “Stop Violence in the Sex Trades Act” to let street walkers who are selling their bodies for cash off the hook.

 “We want to bring sex workers out of the shadows and ensure that they are protected,” Ramos said in at a press conference. “We will finally make strides against trafficking by empowering sex workers to report violence against them. Sex work is work and everyone has an inherent right to a safe workplace.”

 The radical Democrats want to protect every criminal or degenerate aspect of our society these days at the expense of tax paying New Yorkers. .

 If enacted, the legislation would condone prostitution in certain instances, shield prostitutes from criminal liability, and expunge the criminal records of sex workers in most cases.

 DE BLASIO DISRESPECTS THE PUERTO RICAN COMMUNITY

 New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio claims he is committed to diversity, but these days, he seems more committed to his vanity campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020 than anything else. The absentee Mayor blew off the Puerto Rican Day Parade last week to campaign in Iowa.

 “When you’re running for president of United States this is always a challenge, to balance the schedules,” de Blasio said as an excuse for his absence.

 De Blasio was the first Mayor in the history of the parade to ever miss the event. He believes his own ambitions are more important than showing solidarity with the Puerto Rican community.

 “What’s happening Sunday is one of the biggest Democratic party events of the year in Iowa,” he added. “Iowa is obviously the first election of the season for Democratic presidential candidates…And it [is] important to be there, but my respect, my commitment, to the Puerto Rican community is very, very well known in the community, and it will continue deeply.”

 The people of Iowa are not impressed by de Blasio despite his incessant campaigning. He is polling at zero percent in the crucial midwestern state, as his campaign becomes a national punchline.

 He is not faring much better in his liberal-dominated home state of New York, where President Trump polls five points better than the reviled Mayor.

 HAPPY FLAG DAY

 Flag Day is celebrated each year on June 14 to commemorate the day on which the country adopted its famous stars and stripes.

 President Woodrow Wilson issued a presidential proclamation in 1916 to mark the date in 1777 when the Second Continental Congress selected the American flag.

 Many people in the United States and New York State will honor the day by displaying the flag at homes and public buildings.

 The Conservative Party of New York State would like to wish everyone a happy Flag Day!

Welcome to the Conservative Party’s Weekly Wrap-Up for June 7, 2019!

NEW YORK STATE DEMOCRATS HARBOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

Democrats in the state continue to drag the empire state down the road to lawlessness.  The Democratic Majority is pushing legislation forward in the state Senate  that would officially make New York a sanctuary state. This accompanies Cuomo’s successful push for state-subsidized legal services provided to illegals to prevent ICE from enforcing the law. Another one of Cuomo’s top priorities for the year is to give drivers licenses to illegals as well.

“While the federal government continues to threaten our immigrant communities, New York will not stop fighting to protect the rights of new Americans,” Governor Cuomo said.

NYC RESIDENTS PAY FOR DE BLASIO’S AMBITIONS

Unpopular New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is running for President despite the chance that he has a snowball’s chance in Hades of actually winning. The far-left radical’s vanity run is costing his city a great deal of funds, as he neglects his real job to travel and conduct interviews.

Reporters have noted that de Blasio is traveling with New York Police Department (NYPD) security detail during campaign stops. Civil rights attorney Norman Siegel is filing Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) requests because de Blasio is being tight-lipped about how much his ambitions are costing his city.

“It’s a very, very small amount of money,” the mayor said. “But, again, anything about how security is provided should go to the NYPD.”

The NYPD is not responding to requests about the figures either, but considering how de Blasio is doing in his role as Mayor, the costs may be a small price to pay to keep the nanny-state bureaucrat from further screwing up NYC.
DE BLASIO’S SOCIAL JUSTICE AGENDA

By the time de Blasio is finished with New York City, the residents may be begging him to go to Iowa, South Carolina, New Hampshire, Michigan, or anywhere else no matter the cost!

Mayoral spokesperson Freddi Goldstein revealed de Blasio’s agenda for the year and it is a progressive nightmare including dope legalization, rent controls, ending the Specialized High School Admission Test (SHSAT) for the purposes of diversity and inclusion, more handouts for minority- and women-owned businesses, repealing Section 50-a of the state Civil Rights law to put law enforcement under further attack, and letting more criminals back on the streets.

“There’s a lot going on in the final weeks here of the legislative session… What they’ve achieved already this year has been remarkable, it’s been historic. A lot more is going to happen over the next few weeks. This is going to be judged as one of the great legislative sessions in many decades,” de Blasio said on Monday afternoon to reporters.
