Priorities for NYC: More public toilets?

Posted on January 11, 2026 by | 1 comment

During his first two weeks in office, New York City’s mayor has prioritized the needs of its citizens: Portable public toilets.

Not crime, not taxes, not housing, and not public safety. Portable public toilets.

Zoran Mamdani announced a new public restroom pilot program that will cost millions of dollars but, I’m sure, will solve the high-ranking problem of where to do your business in the city. Watch him announce his new pilot program here.

It’s not like a large city has tried to install public modular toilets and had great success with them.

In 2004 the city of Seattle spent $5 million dollars on FIVE self-cleaning toilet units. These facilities became notorious for attracting the homeless, illegal activities, drug use and prostitution. As a result, the city sold them in 2008 for $12,549, a loss of 4,987,451 taxpayer dollars.

Public toilets in Berlin.

The city of Berlin tried something similar but with “eco-friendly” toilets. Many of those have been destroyed in the same way Seattle’s were (see above photo).

But hey, at least Mamdani is promising more free stuff! It’s just probably not the free stuff that everyone desires. And don’t count on this effort being anymore successful than it was in Seattle and Berlin.

Au revoir: George Clooney and family become French citizens and move to France

Posted on December 29, 2025 by | 1 comment

Saying goodbye to the culture that made him rich (George Clooney, left, with fellow moonbats).

Long-time democrat and President Biden supporter (before he wasn’t) George Clooney has decided to move his family to  France and secure French citizenship. Apparently the Clooneys don’t want to raise their children in the Hollyweird culture, the one that made George a famous and rich actor. From Fox News:

“Actor George Clooney, along with his wife Amal Alamuddin Clooney, and their two children, have become French citizens.

The couple and their 8-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander, were granted citizenship, according to a naturalization decree. The couple has been living in France with their children after uprooting the family to get away from the culture of Hollywood, the Academy Award-winning actor and director said in October. 

In an interview with Esquire, Clooney, 64, opened up about his life in France and explained why they chose to move his family to the countryside. 

“You know, we live on a farm in France. A good portion of my life growing up was on a farm, and as a kid I hated the whole idea of it. But now, for them, it’s like – they’re not on their iPads, you know? They have dinner with grown-ups and have to take their dishes in. They have a much better life.“

“I was worried about raising our kids in L.A., in the culture of Hollywood. I felt like they were never going to get a fair shake at life,” he continued.”

Read the whole story here.

I’m pretty sure that with Clooney’s net worth of $500 million that his kids will get their more than fair shake at life.

I’m also sure that it didn’t take moving to France to find a farm to raise your kids. Plenty of farms in the U.S., especially in flyover country.

But hey, you do you, George. I’m sure y’all will enjoy the rise of the diverse culture in France!

That didn’t last long: Ellen DeGeneres planning to move back to the US after a year abroad

Posted on December 2, 2025 by | 2 comments

The face of someone inflicted with TDS.

Earlier this year Ellen DeGeneres confirmed that she moved to the UK because of the re-election of President Donald Trump. She was in the UK at the time of the election and said the following this past July:

“We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, ‘He got in’,” she said. “And we’re like, ‘We’re staying here.’”

CNN also reported the following:

DeGeneres went on to enthuse about the English countryside to the crowd in Cheltenham, saying, “It’s absolutely beautiful,” the BBC reported. “We’re just not used to seeing this kind of beauty. The villages and the towns and the architecture – everything you see is charming and it’s just a simpler way of life.”

“It’s clean. Everything here is just better – the way animals are treated, people are polite. I just love it here,”

Fast-forward a year and she has decided that apparently not everything is better in the UK. From the Daily Mail:

“Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi are reportedly planning to head back home to the United States after living in the English countryside for the last year.

The Mail on Sunday can reveal that Ms. DeGeneres has told friends she and Ms. de Rossi are planning to spend more time in sunny California because they ‘miss their friends’ and dread the thought of another British winter.

A source said: ‘Ellen was adamant that she and Portia were going to stay in the UK while Trump was in the White House, but evidently she’s changed her mind somewhat.

‘She’s been telling friends they are coming home soon because they miss them and can’t take the winters over there, and Portia wants to act again. They will be here for the holidays and longer by the sound of it.’

The source said: ‘Ellen was very clear that they’re coming back to California sooner rather than later. They miss the warm weather and their friends.’

Read the whole story here.

I give Ellen some credit for at least she left as she said she would, unlike the many other celebrities who threatened to leave if Trump was president and then never did leave. Alas, it was not a permanent situation.

Judicial endangerment: Violent man released only to return to assault victim he attacked six hours earlier

Posted on November 13, 2025 by | 2 comments

Perp James Bowman freed on his own recognizance in a blue state after assaulting woman

For years democrats have been implementing their desired goal of “criminal justice reform” with the goal being a more “equitable” system. This was amplified after the George Floyd incident and started the Defund The Police movement and many states to implement “no cash bail” policies.

Activist judges have fully participated in this experiment resulting in endangerment to the public and victims. Here’s a recent example from Maryland via a press release from the Charles County Sheriff’s Office:

“On November 8 at 12:52 a.m., officers responded to the 4200 block of Drake Court in Waldorf for the report of an assault involving a man and a woman. Upon arrival, officers found a woman inside the residence holding a toddler. She had visible injuries and was covered in blood. Officers de-escalated the situation and learned the suspect had returned to the residence after being arrested and charged with assaulting the same woman less than six hours earlier.

An investigation revealed the suspect, James Bowman, III, age 40, of Waldorf, had been arrested the previous night, November 7, for a domestic-related assault. In that case, it was reported Bowman punched the victim in the face and bit her hand. After his arrest, a district court commissioner released Bowman from the Charles County Detention Center on personal recognizance under the condition he does not abuse the woman.

Bowman returned to the residence within one hour of being released and assaulted the woman again; this time, she was holding a toddler. She was able to call 9-1-1 and retreat to a bedroom and lock the door; however, Bowman forced the door open and continued assaulting her as she attempted to place the child on the bed. While striking the woman, Bowman also struck the child in the forehead, causing an injury.

The victim and child were treated by EMS. Bowman was arrested at the scene and charged with assault and child abuse. A district court commissioner held him without bond and on November 10, a judge ordered Bowman to continue to be held without bond.“

These days with democrats fighting so hard to protect criminal illegal aliens, it should come as no surprise that a judge would release a domestic abuser and biter. He or she should be held responsible for releasing this animal so quickly.

The criminal justice reform experiement in blue states has not been a success. Especially for this woman and child. But that doesn’t mean that democrats won’t continue in their quest for “equity.”

Get out if you can: Mamdani wins NYC mayor’s race

Posted on November 4, 2025 by | 1 comment

The next mayor of NYC (c) with Siraj Wahhaj (r), unindicted 1993 WTC bombing co-consipirator.

It took less than 25 years after the 9/11 terrorist attack for New York City to be fundamentally transformed. Obama must be so proud.

Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City despite not having any worthwhile experience in business, management, operations or just about anything else. He’s basically a nepo baby funded by his parents and the Democrat Socialists of America. And, of course, George Soros.

But Mamdani has promised a lot to make New York more affordable for its citizens and illegal aliens living in the sanctuary city. He has promised a free bus system across the city, which has over one million riders everyday. This would cost an estimated $652 million per year. He plans to raise taxes on corporations and “the wealthiest” New Yorkers to pay for free rides.

Mamdani has also promised to freeze the rent on all rent-stabilized apartments. He doesn’t have the power to do this as rents are set by the Rent Guidelines Board but he could appoint all nine board members who would vote his way.

Mamdani has also promised universal, free childcare for all children six weeks and older. The would cost approximately $12 billion annually—roughly 10% of NYC’s $116 billion budget. Again, he plans to raise taxes on corporations and “the wealthiest” New Yorkers to pay for free childcare.

No wonder he won by just over 50 percent. As the Rush Limbaugh once said, “It’s just very difficult to beat Santa Claus.”

I doubt many of Mamdani’s promises will come to fruition, except the one about taxing the wealthy and corporations. After all, Mamdani has expressed his communist views publicly:

If you live in New York City I have one suggestion for you:

Red states and ICE: Keeping our highways safe

Posted on October 15, 2025 by | 3 comments

Now this is what I voted for.

President Trump and OK Gov. Stitt

This week Oklahoma Gov. Stitt announced that Oklahoma Highway Patrol and ICE worked together to remove 130 illegal aliens from our major highways. These drivers were issued commercial drivers licenses in sanctuary states and some had even “No Name Given” on their licenses. From KFOR:

“On Monday, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt announced authorities apprehended 130 alleged “illegal” immigrants from multiple countries under “Operation Guardian” sweep along Interstate 40.

According to the Governor Stitt’s announcement, the operation handled by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) targeted enforcement along I-40 in western Oklahoma with numerous commercial truck drivers utilizing licensures issued by sanctuary states from multiple countries, including India, Uzbekistan, China, Russia, Georgia, Turkey, Tajikistan, Ukraine, and Mauritania.

“If New York wants to hand out CDLs to illegal immigrants with ‘No Name Given,’ that’s on them. The moment they cross into Oklahoma, they answer to our laws,” said Governor Stitt. “I want to thank our troopers and ICE officials for their hard work. This is about keeping Oklahomans safe.”

Read the whole story here.

If you’re driving around in blue states, keep your eyes on the road and at a swivel. It could be dangerous and deadly out there.

So glad there are still politicians who put the safety of American lives over their desire to protect illegal criminals!

Why term limits are desperately needed in our political system

Posted on September 5, 2025 by | 1 comment

Meet 88-year-old Eleanor Holmes Norton, a congress critter representing The Swamp. Like many other should-be retired politicians, she opts to remain in some sort of power.

Norton was first elected to represent DC in 1991. She has been in office for over 34 years. She is running for re-election because, “my seniority is what is very important.” From the NY Post:

“The oldest member of the House, 88-year-old Democrat Eleanor Holmes Norton, brushed aside growing concerns about her age, saying that she will “of course” be running for re-election.

“I say that my seniority is what is very important, and I am not going to step aside,” Norton, a non-voting delegate representing the District of Columbia, told Axios.

Norton, who was born in 1937 and has served as a of the House since 1991, has sparked concern among friends and colleagues who feel she has experienced a notable mental decline in recent years, the New York Times reported earlier this year.”

Read the whole story here.

Along with her wrong assessment of the National Guard being in DC, she is obviously declining in her mental faculties as we see she has problems even reading from a script.

It’s also been observed that she cannot fully function at public events . Ealier this year, Mother Jones noted that at a town hall telephone meeting Norton “read some opening remarks, but when participants directed questions at her, union reps or a democracy activist provided most of the answers. “Congresswoman, I’d be happy to jump in” was a typical intervention during her many unexplained silences.”

Mother Jones also reported, “Norton’s uncertain performance did not escape notice. “It turns out Rep. Norton defers all responses to her constituents’ questions, to someone else,” a YouTube commenter complained. “Not what I expected.”

Alas, she will probably win re-election. As seen in many blue-run cities, districts and states, voting habits enable democrats to hold on to their “seniority.”

Cracker Barrel goes LGBT woke

Posted on August 23, 2025 by | 7 comments

Cracker Barrel, the formerly old-fashioned country-style restaurant chain, is in the news for changing its logo by dumpiing the old man and barrel.

But Cracker Barrel is doing way more than rebranding.

The video below explains how Cracker Barrel has gone full LGBT-DEI woke.

So, unless you want to support the Left’s America-destroying agenda, I suggest you find another restaurant to which to give your hard-earned dollars.

UPDATE (Aug. 26):

Victory! Cracker Barrel just announced they’re reverting to their old logo!

Democrat party bleeding registered voters

Posted on August 20, 2025 by | 2 comments

Democrat leaders faces that only a moonbat could love.

As I reported a while ago, the democrat party has a very low approval rating right now.

This is due in part to protecting and prioritizing illegal aliens, leaving our border wide open the last four years and exposing young children to LGBT ideology, among other crazy policies.

The low party favoribility has been confirmed by an analysis by the New York Times which finds that more than 2 million voters left the party in four years. From the NY Post:

“The Democratic Party is bleeding registered voters, suffering a 4.5 million swing against it that could take years to recover from, according to a new report.

Between the 2020 and 2024 presidential elections, Democrats lost about 2.1 million voters across the 30 states that track registration by political party, according to a New York Times analysis of data gathered by the L2 tracking firm.

Over the same period, the Republican Party gained 2.4 million registered voters.

Most alarmingly for Democrats, the decline is nationwide, with the US seeing more new voters registering with the GOP in 2024 for the first time in six years.

Democrats also saw their registered voter advantage dwindle in four 2024 battleground states — Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina and Pennsylvania — all of which President Trump carried this past Nov. 5.

In North Carolina, Democrats lost 115,523 voters between the 2020 and 2024 election, with Republicans gaining more than 140,000 members and erasing the Dems’ registration advantage, according to the L2 data.

Democrats suffered similar losses in Arizona and Pennsylvania, while in Nevada — a state whose politics were long dominated by the Las Vegas-based Culinary Workers Union — the share of registered Democrats suffered the second-steepest plunge of those states measured between 2020 and 2024.”

An excellent story to enjoy for your mid-week break!

Illegal population estimated to have fallen 1.6 million this year

Posted on August 12, 2025 by | 2 comments

The USA had no border control under Biden and “Border Czar” Harris. Their disastrous reign allowed untold number of illegal aliens to flood our country.

Their purposeful disregard for our border was a driving factor in millions of Americans voting for a new sheriff last November. And boy, is he taking action!

The Center for Immigration Studies released a report today that show border enforcement actually works when one gets serious. They analyzed raw data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) household survey, officially called the Current Population Survey (CPS), and found a 2.2 million decline in the total foreign-born or immigrant population (legal and illegal) between January and July of this year. Take a look at their numbers:

  • The total foreign-born or immigrant population declined an unprecedented 2.2 million from January to July – the largest six-month decline ever within the same year.
  • Non-citizens accounted for all of the falloff in the total foreign-born; the naturalized U.S. citizen population has actually increased some since January.
  • The preliminarily estimate is that the illegal immigrant population declined an astonishing 1.6 million (10 percent) to 14.2 million from January to July of this year.
  • The CPS shows significant job growth among the U.S.-born. Further, to the extent employment growth may have slowed overall, it is likely due to illegal immigrants leaving the country.

Read the whole report and analysis here.

Promises made, promises kept!
