  1. Why didn't they do the same thing to stop Juneteenth Day?"Republicans" aren't stopping "Democrats" at all on anything--in fact, they're a team,with an agenda they both agree to--the gutting of (White)America.

  2. SLIWA VS ADAMS FOR NYC'S NEXT MAYOR

    (ZH)Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa sailed to an easy win over restaurateur Fernando Mateo in Tuesday’s Republican mayoral primary in New York City.



    The Epoch Times' Tom Ozimek reports that Sliwa received 68.9 percent of the Republican votes to 26.9 percent for Mateo, with over 96 percent of precincts reporting, according to preliminary results from the Board of Elections


    “Ladies and gentlemen, we have just won the Republican Party in an overwhelming way,” Sliwa said Tuesday at the Empire Steakhouse in Midtown, according to the New York Post.

    “It was a long period of time that took going door-to-door, street by street, subway station by subway station, and spreading the word,” he said, according to the outlet.

    With public attention on crime and safety, both Republican candidates campaigned on a law-and-order platform, with Sliwa resorting to some colorful stunts as he sought to capitalize on his history with the Guardian Angels, a group of volunteer crime fighters.

    Sliwa made headlines in May when he embarked on a 24-hours-straight subway ride after challenging Democrats to join him on the journey, part of his bid to draw attention to his tough-on-crime policy posture.

    “Hey, Democrats! Wanna be mayor? Gotta ride the subway,” Sliwa said at the time in a video on Twitter, in which he held up a pair of hockey masks and said, “I know some of you are afraid of getting slashed—I brought masks for you to protect you from getting slashed.”

    Sliwa told The Epoch Times after he completed the challenge that no Democrats joined him to ride New York City’s number 4 train, which he dubbed the “Slasher’s Express” after two attackers punched, slashed, and robbed multiple victims on the train a week prior.



    On the Democrat side, MishTalk.com's Mike Shedlock details that, with about 90% of the vote in, Eric Adams has 31% of the vote to Maya Wiley at 21.74%, Kathryn Garcia at 20.30%, and Andrew Yang at 11.64%.

    GRA:Well,all I can say,to borrow from an old John Lennon song,"Give Sliwa a Chance"

  3. Senator Kennedy called this Democrat bill the "screw the people bill." It would prevent states from enacting election integrity laws. This bill really shows how corrupt and brazen the Democrats are. The only purpose of this bill was to keep making cheating easy. And the Democrats claim Republicans are racist for not wanting black Democrats to keep cheating.
