When a tight race occurs, it is typical for the candidates to associate their opponents with seemingly unpopular figures within their party. If one listens to advertisements from Republican Mazi Melesa Pilip, it would appear that she is running against former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the leftist “Squad,” and undocumented migrants.
In their hatred of Israel, leftists found a new ally in the Houthi movement of Yemen, which has been attacking ships in the Red Sea in an expression of protest against Israel’s war against Hamas.
On a bitterly cold night in Whitestone, Queens, the American Legion Hall became the epicenter of a fervent political rally for Mazi Pilip, drawing a standing room only crowd. The event, hosted by NYC Councilwoman Vickie Paladino, brought together a notable roster of elected officials, signaling the importance of the upcoming elections. The GOP Chairs of Nassau, Queens, and New York State all converged with the elected representatives they worked so hard to put in office to ensure that Mazi beats Tom Suozzi on February 13.
In late December, the New York City Council passed the “How Many Stops Act,” legislation that seeks to hamper policing by forcing them to do an extraordinary amount of paperwork for even the most minor of officer-civilian interactions. Mayor Eric Adams, who was a captain in the NYPD before turning to politics, is reportedly planning on vetoing the Act. But his veto will not stop the City Council, as the initial vote passed the veto-proof majority, with 35 of 51 votes. So, this veto will be followed by a movement for citizens to pressure their elected council members to vote against the Act when it comes back up to the Council.
The 100th day of the war against Hamas came and went, allowing those who are supporting Israel’s right to retaliate against its attackers to take a moment to mourn what was lost and appreciate what was accomplished.
To celebrate the 3-month anniversary of the mass slaughter of Jews in Israel, Hamas-supporting protesters blocked three bridges and a tunnel in rush hour traffic on Monday morning, the first full work week of 2024. The NYPD claims that over 325 were arrested, yet reports coming out Tuesday morning claim that many were released without charges or with petty misdemeanors.
