As Mayor “Red Bill” focuses on the capricious opening and closing of this once vibrant city (he still refuses to even throw a bone to the theatres) we are left with the summation that this must be all part of deBlasio’s communist playbook.: Control, Confusion and Ruin.
The Saga of Teddy Roosevelt’s statue was apparently a moment’s diversion with no legs.
Nov 12, 2020. Controversial statue of Theodore Roosevelt still stood outside New York’s Natural History Museum.
(See Flickr slide show)
October 10, 2020, perhaps Teddy won. I checked periodically, and noted on September 1, 2020, he was still there.
His statue remained.
Did the protests succeed? After all the press about this “racially insensitive” statue of Teddy Roosevelt, the statue has gone in to the dust bin of “no longer news worthy” stories. Teddy still stands and no one seems to care. [ NY Post ]
No date had been set for the removal, a spokesperson for the mayor’s office told CNN in their June 22 report.
Flickr Slide Show from the protest in June, when it seemed “a given” that the statue was coming down (so declared Mayor “Red Bill” de Blasio)
“The protest group held signs that read “DEFEND OUR MONUMENTS” and “Can not learn from the past if we erase HISTORY!!” as they heard from speakers during the hour-long demonstration.
“Teddy Roosevelt believed in an America without hyphens. Not white Americans, not black Americans, not brown Americans. Just Americans,” said David Marcus, a correspondent for The Federalist and contributor to The Post’s opinion pages, including about the decision to oust the statue.
“He believed in a future for this country where we would all live together peacefully, and that’s the future that I see in front of me right here,” said Marcus.”
It would have seemed relevant for the media to follow-up with the removal. But, silence is all that followed. Perhaps the protest was a success and the left-media didn’t want to report that angle. Whatever, for all the noise, ’tis a puzzlement.

LEFTISTS Marched Against NYPD Violence and Rioting
1 pm – Saturday, November 14, 2020
Columbus Circle aka Lenape Circle – New York City [American-Indian names are the new /old identifiers.
Columbus Circle – they demand – be changed to Lenape Circle]
VOCAL New York claimed:
“The NYPD has notoriously attacked black-led protests for years. Notable upticks have occurred since this summer’s #DefundThePolice uprisings. We condemn police violence and treating protest as a crime.”
Hard-core LEFTists like BLM, Socialist Alternative NYC, Trump/Pence Out Now and Rise and Resist gathered in “Lenape Circle” to OPPOSEDFascism.
Jay W. Walker (who organized this protest) is an organizer-activist and co-founder of the Reclaim Pride Coalition, Gays Against Guns, Rise and Resist and Refuse Fascism (a front group for the Revolutionary Communist Party.)
Before they marched into Central Park, he spoke against police violence aimed at protestors. As always, the soc/commies are victims of the FASCIST police.
Jay Walker video transcribed:“Democratic, Liberal movements take a stand against police rioting thru out this city. The People of NY aught to take a stand. Some protestors they “protect”, and others – outside agitators – are “violent insurrectionists”; leftists mobs. Nothing could be further from the truth. Every activist group in this city has been working in concert for four years to rid this country of the Trump administration. We have been working non-stop throughout all of that time.
We must end police violence against communities of color; religious minorities; against women; all women around this country; against ICE and government violence against all of our communities. We have stood united since November 2016 and the NYPD cannot. ever. divide us. (cheers/jeers)[1:59]
Over the course of the last week we have seen the NY media be complicit in spreading lies and propaganda. They have not been doing journalism as they have covered these police riots against protestors.
They have been putting out propaganda. [2:28]
We know that they have been putting out propaganda because they release statements from the police without ever interviewing a single organizer of a single protest at which the police have chosen to herd and deter. And we will not stand for it. ( cheers/jeers) [2:52]
So we are out here today to hold the NYPD to account. We are out here today to hold the NYC media to account.
A quick note to all of these protest movements, “Do not be afraid of the press.” The press is there to get your message out. [3:20]
Don’t let the press use you. YOU use the press to get your message out. (cheers/jeers)
Now, we’ve seen all the lies. We’ve seen all the distortions. We’ve seen cops obstruct protestors, search their belongings and then say, “Oh, they weren’t armed.” And then we see a media that doesn’t say, “Well, were they brandishing these weapons or were they just locked away in their back pack?” cause you would never have known about them if you hadn’t attacked and brutalized them.
This is the kind of journalism that we expect people who have gone through these great ivy-league , J-school(journalism) programs, who have these media studies mastered; who are reporting from local or national news stations to do and yet they do not. WE must hold them accountable. (crowd- YES!)” [End Video]
The NYPD officers, waiting for the march, were ridiculed and assailed with accusations of violence.
Walker was pleased to announce they had ‘tricked’ the NYPD into placing vehicles and officers on the south side of the park, knowing they were marching north to Central Park’s Seneca Village (near 72nd St and 5th Ave)
“Seneca Village existed from 1825 through 1857. Seneca Village was Manhattan’s first significant community of African American property owners. By the 1840s, it had become a multi-ethnic community African Americans, Irish, and German immigrants, and perhaps a few Native Americans. In 1855 … within two years, Seneca Village would be razed and its identity erased by the creation of Central Park.”
As for the NYPD, they still seem committed to “protect and serve”, in spite of the lack of support received from our communist-loving Mayor de Blasio.

Unfortunately, Mayor “deBozo” continues to deconstruct the city with lock downs as he relentlessly works to neuter the NYPD. Most recently, de Blasio is removing the NYPD from certain emergency calls. His pilot program will send Mental Health workers to lead/replace the police in what they describe as non-violent emergency calls. It will debut in Feb. 2021 (good luck with predicting who’s armed)
A pilot program in New York City will be launched to replace police officers with mental health professionals when responding to emergency mental health calls, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced on Tuesday, Gothamist reports. The pilot will begin in February.
Meanwhile, this day in DC, over a million MAGA patriots gathered PEACEFULLY.
But they were attacked viciously by the LEFT. Some questioned whether the DC police were able or willingly to protect and serve the peaceful citizens who were just trying to go home.
In Conclusion: The Communist/Socialist insurgents have worked relentlessly for over a hundred years to take down our constitutional government.Their hatred for our independence has never waned, generation after generation. Decade after decade they have mocked and stripped our “By the People and For the People” government of its strength.
“WE The People”, like the brainless Eloi, have walked passively into our 2020 prisons; imprisoned by the rules of tyrants, government by fiat. We have no say in our future.
Mayors and Governors have shut down our economy; closed our schools; restricted travel and NOW, they plan to restrict what we do in our homes; how we gather privately. Americans are no longer independent. No man’s home is his castle, not anymore.
Face diapers at the ready, Americans have become a compliant culture willing to suffer the bleakness of a totalitarian economy. Is this is our future?
Perhaps not. Perhaps a Civil War is brewing: Us against the Soc/Commie tyrants.
“My Declaration of Independence”. I will not be subservient to the “Rule of these Tyrants.” Ten months and counting, I proudly declare, “I resist!” Whenever and wherever I can.I refuse the idea that face diapers are necessary. They are a symbol of mental and physical slavery. I will fight this tyranny, relentlessly. I will not go quietly.”
As I observed the PRIVILEGED Soc/Commie ‘victims’ of an America they hate, claiming falsely that they suffer abuse, I feel anger. Frustration. Dismay. For those of us who refuse to live under this tyranny, it’s not the Soc/Commies who are being victimized: AMERICA Must Fight back.

Nov. 1, 2020. The Refuse Fascism Soc/Marxist /Fasiciti, looking for an excuse to protest and march, met in Madison Square Park at 11 am.
Their bravado as always proclaimed SOCIALISM to be the solution to all the problems in the WORLD.
NYC must be MAGA FREE, cause the DEVIL is Donald J. Trump. ( her hat says Third Wife)
The speakers hit us with the usual hateful agitprop and the very Gay “Sing Out Louise” Chorus sang their playful hate with much glee.
Before they marched, they claimed to be tracking the Republican caravans and would “brilliantly” confront them as they did the previous week end in Times Sq. However, the Repubs kept the caravans so secret that many Republicans couldn’t even find them.
As for the March of the Socialists, the enemedia claimed there were 300 socialists who marched out of the park and toward the Hudson. Maybe about 75-100. Certainly NOT 300.
Since there was no caravan to intercept, the anarchists chose to rumble with the police. Anything for a photo-op. I think even the police expected this to be a bigger event as there were way too many police for the actual amount of protestors, who had NOTHING and no one to protest (except the police)
Tomorrow, November 3, there will be chaos. They are planning on it. They said so in their speeches. Feeling their oats and ready to attack. G-d help us all.
Flickr Slide Show: – “NYC Puts the Far Right On Notice”
You tube: Video 1 :First up was a Gay Group ensemble called “Sing Out Louise-“making an insulting mockery of patriotic songs
Video 2 – Male speaker on why “NYC (Socialists)Put the Far Right On Notice”
Video 3– First woman speaker regaled us on why Socialism is the answer.
Video 4- Emily tells us why Socialism must prevail.
Will the Socialists steal the election, as planned, cause only Socialism can save the world from the nightmare of 4 more years of Trump.
The day of reckoning is upon us.
Addendum: Links to reports and videos of the march after they left the park.
NYPD arrested a reporter at the MAGA caravan counter protest at 10th Ave. and 24th St. The journalist has a press badge and a camera. The crowd can be heard pointing out he’s a reporter as police throw him to the ground and cuff him. The reporter that NYPD arrested is a woman. We apologize for mis-gendering her in the original post. [NYC Protest Updates 2020]
Found the WHITE fedora at the protest in the park.
Arrested in the video below – you can see her down on the ground- white fedora
“The crowd of about 300 protesters is aggravated by the arrest of a journalist. Police shout “hold the line” and NYPD and protesters push against each other. More arrests underway.”(no way were they 300)
“On Sunday, anti-Trump protesters had confronted pro-Trump caravans near Madison Square Park as supporters of the president took to streets and highways across the New York region ahead of Tuesday’s presidential election.” [By Tina MooreandNatalie Musumeci] (I was there, they confronted no one)
“Around 100 demonstrators initially gathered in Madison Square Park to confront caravans of Trump supporters, who were expected to drive through Manhattan. The group marched from the park to the West Side Highway, where they’d heard one of the Trump caravans was slated to pass by, but they never showed up.” [The Gothamist]
Apparently the MAGA caravan was warned by the NYPD to stay away. (according to NYC Protest Updates 2020)
Contrary to what the baby Biden Dems have attempted to pass off as truth, is their bus were being ESCORTED out of town. No one was trying to run the bus off the road. Really enjoyed the flags waving in the wind on all sides of that bus (The Dems did NOT)
Trump 2020!
