Biden again abused the tradition of the presidency to claim time from TV networks to make a major announcement. His statement was a purely political attack on a complicated Supreme Court decision — a decision Biden forced on SCOTUS by his own “lawfare” on a political rival.
A Zeldin led independent expenditure fueled Red Wave protesting one party woke-progressive government in Albany & DC swept EVERY NY county & a record 11 GOP congressional, & also GOP legislative, candidates into office. Hochul’s pay-to-play & $1B Gov’t-funded campaign dooms her.

For the first time in U.S. history, the prosecutorial power of the federal government has been used against a former President who is also running against the sitting President. The charges are a destructive intervention into the 2024 election.
Wow!! NY in deep fiscal trouble! New York comptroller DiNapoli: Tax revenue takes tumble: The main driver of revenue for New York, the personal income tax, was $14.5 billion in the first three months of the fiscal year, representing a $7.1 billion drop.
Zeldin 43.4% up from Siena July 39% (& Hochul 47.8% down from 53%) in poll by independent & proven accurate Trafalgar Group. This year, Real Clear Politics called Trafalgar “the most accurate pollster of the cycle among those firms that polled multiple senate & governor races.”

Independent poll shows Hochul slipping into vulnerable territory below 50% with 8% undecideds who usually vote for a challenger. She’s unelected, weak (would Cuomo appoint a strong LG?) & eaten alive by the legislature’s power hungry progressives. Let’s save NY.

Cuomo boasting Florida hospitalizations going up (actually going sideways) while NY’s going down. Fact is NY has 10 times as many hospitalizations as FLA & FLA has 2 million more people. Florida open for biz; Cuomo trying, but failing, to justify strangling NYers & NY biz.

“Communist China suppressed news about the virus, persecuted medical workers who told the truth, expelled reporters from American outlets and has attempted to deflect blame by falsely asserting that the U.S. created the virus.”

Cuomo says “hold me accountable!” but when he ignored warnings, including re EU, & NY had 1/2 US deaths & when for six weeks he forced virus & death into nursing homes & when he didn’t have needed PPE ready, etc.: he blamed others—he has yet to take responsibility for anything.
