    “NPR being NPR:” A new study suggests that the National Guard’s presence has done little to reduce violent crime in Washington, D.C., despite the steep cost..”

    Eventually you learn there was a “24% reduction in opportunistic crimes, like theft or vehicle break-ins”–the sort of pervasive crime that destroys a sense of order. If you ran for mayor on that 24% reduction you’d have a solid platform.”

    “Mamdani’s budget plan in full:

    Step 1 — inherit a deficit

    Step 2 — create a bigger deficit, but schedule it for later

    Step 3 — borrow 7 billion dollars from future New Yorkers who can’t vote yet

    Step 4 — call it savings, film a viral video about pens and paper, and declare victory

    Have a bunch of illiterate people cheer.”

  3. We had an enormous budget surplus, and the governor and Dems spent it all and more plus raise taxes. They mandated all kinds of things to make sure we would keep having to raise taxes. Such a gift these people. Well, they sure were to all the cheaters who have robbed us and the nation’s children, poor, taxpayers etc.

    The ‘influencer’ (whom I have never heard of) who decided to abort his baby because of Down Syndrome needs prayer for sure. I hope he and his significant other decide to never have children since there is no guarantee any child will be perfect. Our own granddaughter had three holes in her heart when she was born. Fortunately, they all closed on their own.

    I have a niece without Down Syndrome who also was born with a hole in heart. In spite of being examined by a cardiologist as a baby that hole was missed. It was discovered when she was thirty and repaired, fortunately.

    I have an acquaintance whose son was born deaf. He actually married my niece and they have children. According to the influencer these people should have been aborted. God have mercy that he rethinks his foolish reasoning.

    “We have been the most generous country in the world, to our detriment.

    25% of all Mexicans live in the US. 70% rely on welfare.

    ~10% of Guatemalans live here. 77% are on welfare

    12% of Nicaraguans live here. 75% rely on welfare

    12% of Haitians live here. 53% rely on welfare”

    “THE U.S. HAS 3X MORE IMMIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH.

    1 of 6 immigrants on the planet live here. No other major developed nation comes close.

    The outcome is clear: the U.S. absorbs a disproportionate share of global migration & ~9/10 new jobs go to them right now.”
