Peace Action Leftists Nuclear Ban Rally at NYC Library

January 20, 2023 – Noon- a protest on the steps of the well known, Fifth Ave NYC Library.

Statement from Peace Action NYC :

“We will gather to celebrate the second anniversary of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and then march to the U.S. Mission (1st Ave & 45th St) to deliver the message that the U.S. must join the Treaty”

They also stated, “It’s been quite a year for Peace Action New York State! From advocating for peace in Yemen and Ukraine, to holding our leaders accountable for our nation’s excessive military spending, our growing network is organizing a strong and impactful peace movement across New York State!” https://www.icanw.org/

VIDEO: The speaker is Seth Sheldon, he serves as the United Nations Liaison for ICAN in New York, but continues to teach and practice law, and to perform in music and arts.

Excerpted speech re the Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty,

“… what we are celebrating …  if you don’t know about the U.N. Treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons, you are to be forgiven. In all of the media coverage on international war and brewing dangers we have not seen much mentioned that the only realistic solution for nuclear weapons – nuclear weapons which pose the greatest existential threat to humanity – including for posing the most acute existential threat to our climate (and global food supply) The solution is the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. [… ] It is the first and only global treaty that categorically prohibits … everything to do with nuclear weapons; also providing a framework for their total elimination.

It is historic … in seeking to prevent future harm, but to to address past harm. […] If you don’t know about it, why do you think that is. […] True experts on international security, science and health care calculate that the the (… ) policies have slept walked humanity into the highest risk ever … higher that at the height of the cold war. And it will get worse quickly, without a major shift. That shift is this treaty, the treaty on the prohibition on nuclear weapons. It is our best hope. Our only hope.”

.(the video continues … with claims of nuclear racism) NYrs find a way to support this treaty….after all it was here where nuclear weapons began. (…) and many NY communities, primarily in  black and brown and under served NYC communities continue to suffer from the radio active legacy of that program  … many NYrs not knowing this. […] many do not know that NYC, prior to 1980’s legislation, was surrounded by Nuclear Missiles [… ] that made NYC more of a target [….] Thank you for your support … (let’s) see the rest of the world join is.” [End Video]

Marxist Anti-War Protest on MLK Day demands Stop NATO Expansion -Times Sq

Jan. 14, 2023.  Times Square. On a very cold day (about 23 F/ -5 C) our fingers and hands were very cold., but no matter, the protest went on as the Socialist. Marxist, Hard Core Left gathered in Times Square – on Martin Luther King Day – using this day to march against the Imperialist, War-Mongering United States.

Proclaiming this to be a Global Issue, they demanded “Say NO to NATO. STOP U.S. WARS. End all U.S. Wars!

Statement from Protest: “It is crucial that opponents of the U.S. war machine stand up for peace as the Biden administration and Congress deepen their proxy battle in Ukraine!  In the federal budget that was just passed and signed into law, the U.S. government has committed an additional $45 billion to this effort. In another provocative escalation, the Biden administration announced that it was sending the advanced Patriot missile system to Ukraine — bringing a catastrophic direct conflict with Russia ever closer.

Video Chants crowd:
Are you Republican – No!
A Democrat- No.! …. Two wings of the same bird.

Just in case you wondered : Capitalism is the enemy.

Next up is Lamis Deek,  a self-described “palestinian”- American lawyer. She is an activist for controversial “palestinian” initiatives and opponent of the State of Israel’s existence. She is a member of a number of anti-Israel and radical-left organizations, including Al-Awda NY: The “palestine” Right to Return Coalition, the Arab Muslim American Federation, and the National Lawyers Guild.

From a Lamis Deek Twitter post : 
We are not interested in “bi-nationalism
Justice, not identity is our basis

Excerpted Lamis Deek speech transcribed. She told us she represented a GLOBAL War. Lead by an anti-Israel/anti-Zionist contingent. (I’m sorry there was audio difficulty – no wind screen)

“(and) …resurrected in the past few years approved, where their brutal violence  …. across the U.S.  … where we saw hundreds of troops lying on the borders of Venezuela …waiting to export their Fascist tactics. When we saw in el Salvador … Zionists…training in open weapons …. tens of thousands of oppressed el Salvadorians in South Africa. They gained nuclear weapons and shelter and money to the oppressive apartheid regime and then gave asylum to the worst offenders  of …. asylum in South Africa. SO, it is NO exaggeration TODAY that where there is ZIONISM, where there is Israel, there is OPPRESSION. There is White Supremacy. There is violence. And Israel is a fundamental threat to ALL people. (Cheers) And so, it holds true that resistance … ‘palestine’, ‘palestinian‘ freedom fighters, fighting for GLOBAL liberation  (cheers) GLOBAL peace, GLOBAL morality and GLOBAL progress (hoots and cheers) and then  ‘palestine” will be free, from the river to the sea: a chant for ONE LIBERATED ‘palestine’.… in occupied land … a rallying call for GLOBAL Liberation. (cheers) ….the exporter of Global Violence and ….  Global Militarization. But it is a  safe (?) …. it is a wound producing all of that in which the world suffers. And so we take this moment and with honesty, and we must admit a very difficult time in ‘palestine’ – ‘palestinians’ are literally being ….and murdered and silenced . ….. we are suffering materially …. and we ask you to HONOR our brothers and sisters who are being murdered – just this morning. And yesterday…and honor ‘palestinian’ freedom fighters… long live the ‘palestinian’ resistance. (cheers) Long Live the ‘palestinian’ Resistance.  … We ask you, because we understand … for everybody individually and collectively, these are challenging times because we know that materially, collectively and ideologically there will be NO Global Peace without ‘palestinian liberation …. And that you raise the ‘palestinian’ flag higher  … inside of  ‘palestine.’ And that you raise for voices, where ever they may be, to demand ( …. ) of apartheid, genocide in ‘palestine’  (……….) which threaten the world.  That you also demand … against the Zionist State .  And that you demand that all ‘palestinian’ freedom fighters in Zionist dungeons are liberated … and demand the liberation of ‘palestine’ from the river to the sea. And we know …  absolutely exciting times for all of us … that you remember individually and collectively you are powerful. And remember that no wall is too high, no ocean too wide and no oppression too great to … the united will of the people . (Cheers) Free Free “palestine”. Long Live “palestine”. From the River to the Sea. “palestine” will be Free. (Cheers)”

“NATO Expansion – NO! Peace in Ukraine- Yes.” as Lamis Deek spoke for GLOBAL recognition of ‘palestine‘ and the eradication of the democratic state of Israel … and a need for a ‘palestinian’ global victory. Is this REALLY  call for GLOBAL peace?

NEXT VIDEO  – of course,  Sara Flounders from United National Anti-War Coalition was amongst the many speakers. Sara  is an American political writer and Russia Today reporter[1] who has been active in progressive and anti-war organizing since the 1960s. She is a member of the Secretariat of Workers World Party, as well as a principal leader of the International Action Center. She also frequently writes for Workers World newspaper.

(Sara had no wind screen issues)

.Transcribed Sara Flounders video:

“... not to go backwards, to demands that earlier generations fought for; millions of people in Europe  demonstrated again and again to say “NO to NATO. Disband NATO. Abolish NATO”.  So, that’s important when we think of the slogans today. Now, I’m part of the United National Anti-War Coalition and on the demands of “NO to NATO” and “STOP U.S. Wars” there are demonstrations this week in more than 50 cities across the U.S. (unclear) That means not only here today, all across the country people are beginning- BEGINNING- to mobilize. Beginning to speak out at this grand theft. Billions. Billions for a new war. Just a few months out of the massive destruction they created in Afghanistan (….??)1:13 a war with years in the planning. Even long before the 2014 Fascist coup. That was a U.S. coup d état and it was the one reason only to bring in a Fascist ….. to threaten Russia; to bomb Russia and the Russian population of Ukraine; to expand NATO. That’s what it’s always been about. Now they’re doing the same thing today against China. That’s what the whole struggle in Taiwan, in South Korea, in Japan…  Japan has just doubled – doubled its military budget. It’ll soon be the third largest military power in alliance with the U.S. (for) war on China. So we gotta be talking about all these U.S. wars cause they’re at it constantly. They’re planning for it. They move the equipment for it. And our unity, standing together, standing in many actions all across the country; working  together and pushing the demands as far as we can go, because these wars (called the) Democrat(ic) party, the Republican party: they’re together. There’s ONE War Party. It’s got two wings, different social base but on the war they will vote together again and again. And it’s only … People’s Movements, from the (…)? the Grass Roots Movement that’s gonna stop them. “No to NATO. Stop ALL U.S. Wars “(cheers)”

PEACE is a questionable result from these “anti-War” protests. (found a Lamis Deek 2021 video posted on Twitter) where – once again – Lamis is promoting ‘palestinian peace’ at any COST …. I think, she just might want WAR. A GLOBAL War. ( talk amongst yourselves)

Save the Children Protestors slandered as “Faces of Hate” by NYC Councilman Bottcher

On December 19, 2022 the Guardians of Divinity (G.O.D.) respectfully approached NYC Councilman Erik Bottcher’s office to demand a public apology for falsely labeling them “Faces of Hate” merely because they opposed the NYPL Drag Queen Story Hour. ( see Bottcher’s video from December 17th)

He was called out for his LIES and his unwillingness to apologize. But, Bottcher Hid and Lied – again and again- as he continued his “Faces of Hate“slander and accused them of STORMING his office. ALL LIES.

These videos reveal there was no ‘STORMING’. (Video Part 1)

.. But, the cowardly Erik Bottcher hid in his office anyway, watching his security cams.( Part 2)

.He could see there was NO storming of the building, as did the FNTV cameraman, Ed Quinn. They both continued the ‘STORMING’ lie, even though there was NO such action.  Requesting entry by knocking on the door is not an act of aggression.

( Part 3  video as the finished and quietly left the building)

FLICKR Slide Show: Once outside the building, the Guardians chalked their message on the sidewalks while Bottcher continued to HIDE inside. The Freedom News TV cameraman, along with the Councilman, continued to fan the flames of hatred with their LIES.

IMG_4130 copy

Outside , still wondering would the Councilman ever respond, the NYPD showed up. But since no laws were broken, there was no reason for the police to hang around.

(Part 4 video ) Out side Bottcher’s office

.I was only at the afternoon office event. What transpired that evening, at his apartment, also did not qualify as storming.Holding signs. ringing his buzzer. Calling him out from the street was their right as protestors. Yet,  Bottcher, ever the drama queen, had the NYPD arrest two female protestors who had done NOTHING to support his claims of threatening his safety.  AGAIN. HE LIED.

The only real damage done was by one of Bottcher’s people who didn’t like the chalk on the sidewalk, so he BROKE the phone of a protestor. (A crime ignored by the police.)

Guardian’s  Video that evening

.The Councilman has now used the courts to threaten the protestors with arrest if they come within a certain distance of HIM. He got a judge to give him an ORDER Of PROTECTION.

ARREST INFO –

Now THIS is the template for storming, threatening. destruction and death. that was laid down in 2020. The Summer of BLM HATE. We should never forget the summer of 2020 and the lack of concern from the left-media. Those violent perpetrators WALKED.

What took place on the 19th of December – in NYC- day and night was nothing more than legal protesting. The Councilman’s charges were lies. Demanding their arrest for protesting …   Shame, Shame on you, Councilman Bottcher.


“Save the Children. Let the Children Be Children. Why  must Drag Queens read to children. What are they promoting? Let the Kids  Be Kids”

 The Guardians still await their apology.

Protest Drag Queen Story Hour Returns to 20th St. Library- NOT Right For Kids!

On Dec 17th, 2022, the Guardians of Divinity returned to protest another Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH) What follows are some of the links that support their Save The Children/ Let the Kids Be Kids protests.

.Drag Queen events (see stills from a few Drag Story videos),WHY is this appropriate for children?”

The devil is acceptable.  But, Christians are NOT.

Please explain Councilman Erik Bottcher ,”WHY is this NOT GROOMING?”

Drag_queen_child_abuse

On Dec 17, 2022, the Guardians of Divinity (G.O.D) gathered to protest the Drag Queen Story Hour(DQSH)  aimed at very young children.

The NYPD forced them into the street …. which increased the volume of the protest voices since the ANTIFA /Rise and Resist protestors blocked the entrance to the library (and they were VERY loud)

Flickr Slide show – The NYPD and Councilman Bottcher ignored their message:  “Why must Drag Queens read ‘identity’ books to children. What are they promoting?”

IMG_0672 copy

.An  unnecessary addition this day was the predictably bare-breasted Crackhead Barney (who was welcomed by the ANTIFA’s) and the district Councilman, Erik Bottcher. Bottcher was busily posting to his social media  with NO MENTION of the offensive flasher, CrackHead Barney who announced she would be holding a DQSH outside the library ….  and the ANTIFA protestors welcomed her. (Part 1 of 7)

  CRACK HEAD BARNEY 20th St Flickr pics. [ Slide show link]  Her shtick is so obscene that it’s NSFW, so the MSM progs soft pedal her displays.

With her breasts flopping out of her costume, “Barney” announced she would be holding a Story Hour on the street, with  the soc/commie/leftists welcoming her… NO matter what she does,

.Does the pornographic Crackhead Barney  represent the pro-DQSH protesters? [crickets] Instead, what the social media/media promoted that day was Councilman Bottcher’s “Faces of Hate” mantra …. without addressing , “Are these Drag Queens appropriate for young children?

7 short vids – from the 2oth Street Library – NYC – continues with Part 2 of 7 :

Part 3 of 7

Part 4 of 7

Part 5 of 7

Part 6 of 7

Part 7 of 7

.AGAIN, the Guardians of Divinity  asked, WHY is it important to expose toddlers to these glittery, bewigged costumed men —- as though they are a normal part of growing up. Why must these Story Hours teach children about cross-dressing men with books like “The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish.”

This is unnecessary indoctrination. They claim it is not to encourage male children to explore Drag ….but what else will they take away from this. Particularly with the types of books and songs on the line up of ‘ acceptable” materials.

Unfortunately, Bottcher had one exchange with a protestor that allowed him to social media  loop his ‘faces of hate” mantra, that any protest against DQSH’s is a hate-fest against LGBTQ+’s  …. and the MEDIA was a willing purveyor of those lies.

But, the Guardians of Divinity are NOT Faces of Hate and feeding the media misleading sound bites led the Guardians to demand an apology from their Councilman. Two Days later they went to the Councilman’s office to demand a public apology.

Unfortunately he HID inside and then promoted AGAIN a querulous story that they had stormed the building. The videos in the next post support the Guardians as having respectfully approached the councilman’s office. (WHERE he HID.

Sadly, the lies have taken hold. and the children are the losers.

Drag Queen Story Hour Protest at Stavros Niarchos Library in NYC

December 2022 was a busy month for the Drag Queen Story Hour protests in Manhattan. (others were held in Queens and Staten island)
.On Dec 10, 2022, we were at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library. Leading the protest with signs and chants that begged let the Kids to be Kids, not to aspire to be Drag Queens.

There is lovely  family-friendly children’s section. But, what is being read to the children at these DQSH is too often ignored.  Say No to Grooming. Let the Kids be Kids!

.  Stop The Grooming  and Stop the Lies that those who oppose the DQStory Hours are anti-LGBTQ+. The issues are what is appropriate for CHILDREN.

The libraries, the City Council, the media are all influenced by the Socialist/Marxist/Facist orgs who foster the Big Lie that Save The Children is a cover for White Supremacy; Maga-nuts who hate-on the Gay Community so sadly the libraries are planning more and more DQSH.

.Once inside the 40th Street branch I caught a quick glimpse in the reading room before a librarian started quizzing me…did I have a child.  (see videos)

Part 1 video

.Next two gallery composites were captured by S Miller of the Drag Performer reading. (Still do not know what book was being read)

.Part 2 video emotions ran high between the naive parents and the protestors.

There was also  a second floor mezzanine with some boisterously vocal teens.

And then this unfortunately impassioned fellow who swung at the protestors and then landed a punch to the chest to the officer attempting to calm him down. (A swift arrest followed.)

Part 3 video

The protest continued outside with sidewalk chalking, chanting and engaging the passersby.  As the one fellow was taken away by the police, one noisy female heckler was separated from the Guardians of Divinity by the NYPD. (Guess they needed some quiet).

All in all, it was a successful protest.

(Three Manhattan reports will follow … wrapping up  2022 …)

World Wide Freedom Rally NY: NO MANDATES/Save The Children

Nov. 19. 2022. The World Wide Freedom Rally-NY gathered at Union Square and then walked to Washington Sq. chanting “The Pandemic is over. We Will Not Comply and We Want Our Jobs Back

But, Union Square was a mess. The holiday season (pre-Thanksgiving) had already added a glut of seasonal merchant booths  – along with the ever present Green Market – making it impossible to find the Freedom Rally. So I headed to Washington Sq.

Video as they arrived at Washington Sq. while making a mighty noise with ” We Will Not Comply

Lots of camaraderie (and drums) as well as one strange fellow (making a film of some sort perhaps)…. strange – but not shy.  That’s so New York.

More signs as the crowd grew and speakers spoke to the continued need for a  Worldwide FREEDOM  Rally. Ending Illegal Mandates (that still haunt us).  As “Save the Children” and “My Body,My Choice” filled the air.

.The people were warned that Gov. Hochul has big plans to create quarantine camps for a plandemic that BIDEN said has ended … and yet, NY still elected this pretender, Kathy Hochul, Governor anyway.

We will NEVER comply as the LEFT continues to press for masks and illegal jabs.  As long as the tyranny of Gov. Hochul and Mayor Adams continues, so will these rallies demanding our God-given Freedoms be restored.

Very short video from NY Freedom Rally:

[https://nypost.com/2022/12/01/why-is-nycs-arts-community-still-punishing-kids-by-forcing-them-to-mask/]

“…. these cultural institutions have parents over a barrel. Because while New York City’s public-school kids 5 and up were freed from their masks March 7 (the mayor’s toddler mask mandate for ages 2 to 4 didn’t end until June 13), these partly publicly funded private fiefdoms can continue to mandate any ineffective mitigation they choose — with neither consequences nor motivation to restore normal for child visitors.”

PROTEST Corruption outside NY Times DealBook Summit

Nov 30, 2022 NYC. Protestors outside the NY TimesDealBook Summit demand transparency and accountability re racketeering and conspiracy

“Bankman-Fried also appeared at the New York Times’ DealBook summit on Wednesday, where he said he “didn’t ever try to commit fraud.”

Speaking at the New York Times’ Dealbook Summit with Andrew Ross Sorkin (a financial columnist for The New York Times ) at what he said was against the advice of his lawyers, Bankman-Fried said that he did not knowingly commingle customer funds on FTX with funds at his proprietary trading firm, Alameda Research.” [NY Post]

What a difference one month makes:

“FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried is set to be released on a $250 million bond and placed under house arrest at his parents’ California home following his first court appearance in Manhattan federal court Thursday.” [NY Post]

And NOW we have Zelensky in the States, greeted by Biden and speaking to Congress while BEGGING for more money [NY POST]

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Washington, D.C. to co-host a White House press conference on Dec. 21. Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Washington, DC, to co-host a White House press conference on Dec. 21.AP

Meanwhile, back to the speakers on November 30th [NY TIMES]

Part 1 video (approx 6 min) : Nov. 30, 2022.

In a mostly heavy rain (with an occasional respite) protesting the NY TimesDealBook Summit by demanding  transparency and accountability re racketeering and conspiracy. This speaker criticized Ben Affleck as the token representative of the Celebrity Industrial Complex. Artists today are bought, paid and serviced …. by the New World Order. She warned against the Great Reset and the return of the degenerate Weimar Republic and concluded with, ” Art is supposed to be about beauty with a capital “B”; Truth and Beauty. Instead, culturally, artistically, what is happening in our world today is the ugly … nihilistic into extreme levels of ugliness…. When you can break down people and break down families and break down communities they’re so much easier to take down.”

Part 2 video  (approx 2 min) Grifter, Sam Bankman-Fried was scheduled as an interviewee/speaker.

This fellow responded outside the NY TimesDealBook Summit, to the question, “Don’t you think it’s worth listening to the guy who tweeted out-Don’t worry we’re solvent. And then the next day everybody’s money is gone. No promise for getting it back. … Yeah…. I think it’s worth listening to Sam Bankman-Fried from PRISON.” (the rest was the female speaker and a strange accusation re Mark Zuckerberg.)

Video 3 (3:31) focused on Ukraine corruption. (Pres. Zelensky was one of the interviewee/speakers promoted at the NY TimesDealBook Summit)

Protestors were demanding transparency and accountability re racketeering and conspiracy. This speaker discussed The Color Revolution (2005)…. funded by G. Soros. Also, topics were China and the ‘rona’.

Video 4 (5:20) Pres. Zelensky was one of the interviewee/speakers promoted at the NY TimesDealBook Summit so corruption and the history between Ukraine and Russia was briefly discussed.

How many think Ukraine is winning this war. There is no way…Russia going to win this war. Ukraine is going down, so need to launder as much money as they can.

Video 5 (4:58) continued with Ukraine corruption. (Pres. Zelensky was one of the interviewee/speakers promoted at the NY TimesDealBook Summit)

Putin is going to win this war. Were going to suffer for it and  and Europe is suffering for it. Zelensky is a pawn. a kleptocrat. We’re giving the billions….pilfered… funneled thru FTX to  the Democrats. The biggest money heist in the world. SBF is being treated as someone who just made a mistake. He needs to be put behind bars for years and years and never coming out.”

++++ A final look at a short recap from NY Times++++

DealBook SummitWorld Leaders, Business Titans and Crypto’s Fallen Star [NY Times]

  • Mark Zuckerberg says that the App Store’s market dominance is ‘not good.’

  • A faltering economy left Amazon little choice but to execute mass layoffs, Andy Jassy said.

  • Netflix’s Reed Hastings regrets that the streaming service was late in introducing ads.

  • President Zelensky of Ukraine rebukes Elon Musk’s peace proposal.

  • TikTok C.E.O. Shou Chew says that ‘it’s too early’ for a big investment in the metaverse.

  • Yellen calls for more regulation of cryptocurrencies after ‘Lehman moment.’

  • BlackRock’s Larry Fink says his biggest worry is investors ‘losing hope.’

Ben Affleck says he knows how to save ‘15 percent off the top’ of moviemaking.

“The problem with moviemaking is that it hasn’t “adapted to modern technology,” Ben Affleck told Andrew Ross Sorkin at The New York Times’s DealBook Summit on Wednesday.

“They still make movies with a lot of equipment, heavy cameras, practically speaking, a massive amount of money is missing,” he said. “I knew I could save 15 percent off the top.”

Affleck’s vision: Hollywood’s most powerful stars and off-camera people — directors, editors, costume designers, cinematographers — will all share in the profit. And they’ll also have a bigger say in the creative process, he promised.

Artists Equity has secured at least $100 million in financing from the private investment firm RedBird Capital Partners, and its founder, Gerry Cardinale, also appeared onstage on Wednesday. The studio has partnered with Amazon for its first movie, which will be about the business story behind the Air Jordan brand. Mr. Damon is starring in the movie, and Mr. Affleck is directing it.”

Christmas covid Carols greet Pfizer CEO Honored by Touro University in Times Sq

Dec 4, 2022. Outside Marriott Marquis – Times Square. covid carolers “welcomed” the CEO of Pfizer, Dr. Albert Bourla,  a veterinarian, with altered lyrics to the carols.  Inside the Marriott, Dr. Bourla (as CEO of Pfizer) was being honored by Touro University.

Outside the Marriott Marquis, the Medical Freedom Alliance/Party “welcomed” Dr Albert Bourla with”We Wish YOU a VAXLESS Christmas” and other altered carols.

The Alliance is a coalition of those who have fought the mandates and refused forced vaccinations joining together to elect as public servants those who have done the same. “All confusion and fear CAN be done away with once and for all through UNDERSTANDING. Our country has never before witnessed this amount of propaganda, misinformation and censorship. Yet the truth still exists for anyone who makes the effort to seek out the proper sources. We see clearly the difference between agenda-driven “science” and facts…. Between party line “science” and facts.” [https://mfany.org/]

INSIDE the Marriott was the Anniversary Gala of Touro College was  honoring Pfizer’s CEO, Dr. Albert Bourla.

Dr. Kadish was introduced Dr. Bourla and stated that his achievement of bringing a safe and effective covid vaccine to market in just nine months is one that will be remembered for the ages throughout the world.

 

Dr. Bourla shared that Touro and Pfizer have a lot in common. “ Touro and Pfizer are both committed to innovation, not for the sake of innovation, but to move the world forward and to make an impact on people’s lives. Universities like Touro that are developing bright minds have a critical role to play, as companies like Pfizer advance global health. We are living in a world with incredible scientific discovery where we can turn disease into chronic conditions and be better prepared for future pandemics.”

The Heckler ( in blue jacket)  didn’t like the covid vax stats:

IMG_0396 copy

To the June 1, 2022  graduating class of Touro College, in addressing the graduates, keynote speaker Dr. Bourla described the monumental task of development an effective vaccine in a time span that would shatter previous records, and how it took an ambitious mindset to achieve it.

“You are fortunate to have found a school that allowed you to thrive in pursuit of your purpose. Now the world needs you to turn your purpose into action. The accelerating pace of innovation is cause for great hope, because it will result in improved health outcomes,” said Dr. Bourlas. “And each of you—whether you become a surgeon, a primary care physician, a researcher, a teacher or a clinician—you are on the front lines with an opportunity to have a significant impact on human lives.”

“At Pfizer, we referred to the development of our COVID-19 vaccine as a moonshot–a term shorthand for reaching big, for pursuing aspirational and difficult ventures. Today, I challenge you to pursue your own moonshot. To ask yourself how you can achieve something no one else has done before,” he said. “I encourage each one of you to aim high, higher than you can ever imagined. If at first you miss, don’t lower the target. Keep aiming high because when you hit, the reward will be great; for you and for the people that are dependent on you.” [https://www.nymc.edu/news-and-events/news-archives/pfizer-ceo-addresses-class-of-2022-school-of-medicine-graduates.php]

The TRUTH SHOULD SET US ALL FREE of the Pfizer tyranny ….  but not as long as the Dems are clutching the mandate mania. THEY Just can’t let go:

Activists demanded deputy inspector Spataro be fired because he was the head officer on duty that night . The victim was Angie Torres.  The NYPD claimed the man (unidentified) was trying to help break up the fight. [@leeroypress ] [https://www.instagram.com/reel/Ck5_KijggiG/]

They officers teased that perhaps there might be an arrest coming, but so far – NADA.

Hochul a No Show at Rally to Wake Up Dems in Verdi Sq NYC

Oct 23, 2022. Upper West Side (UWS) in Manhattan, a stronghold of the UWS LIBS who predictably keep the hard-core soc.commie.progs in OFFICE.

Dedicated to the One Party government destroying New York, they are the Woke Brigade.

HOWEVER, this day, a politically and racially diverse group of New Yorkers showed those “Wake Up Dems”  a LOUD and confident OPPOSITION to what they are selling. They are here, not so silent, and growing!

.Even though there was a mighty push to WAKE UP these Dems, reminding them to VOTE BLUE, their governor was visibly in absentia.

Governor Hochul must have ‘slept in’ cause the great and wonderful  … and currently unelected Gov  … was a No Show.

 Left leading her roster of Dem speakers was Congressman Jerry Nadler  (has he ever met a commie he hasn’t admired).


And, the Working Families darling, Attorney General Letitia (Tish) James.

Letitia A. “Tish” James is an American lawyer and current NY State Attorney General. She was the fourth New York City Public Advocate, who was admitted to practice law in New York State in 1989; the first member of the Working Families Party to win office in New York State and the first third-party member to be elected to the NYC Council since 1977.

Her cause célèbre : destroy President Donald Trump, his friends and his family, with a kangaroo court machine (any proceeding attempting to imitate “a fair trial or hearing” but  run by lies, prejudice and hatred is illegitimate) Just like Tish.

Letitia James, a lawyer with an agenda, not an Open Mind. BUT NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THIS because the media continues to hide the real Tish James’ from her own words. We should be asking “Why was this woman was EVER allowed to be Attorney General

( In 2017) Letitia encouraged RIOTS in the streets as she threatened Pres.Trump, who she claimed to be illegitimate, with “I will see you in court“. [see video]

On Jan 25, 2017: (Letitia James at a Muslim Immigrant Rights Rally)If you honor the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, then you have an obligation. Whenever you see a government that is lawless, you’ve got an obligation  and a duty to RESIST. RESIST. RESIST.

And so we’ve gotta stand up to the Federal Government. We’ve gotta stand up to bullies. We’ve gotta stand up to an administration that is “too male, too pale and too stale”.

Mr. President, you and your Executive Orders, you have turned back progress for decades.  That puts you on notice, we will resist and we will ultimately see you in court [TSM]

I say to Donald Trump, you are NOT my President. I will resist you and stand up to you and I know there is an ARMY out there that will join me. I need my young people to organize and organize and organize. It is up to you, to get out in the streets …”

Tish James – Treason or Patriotism?

Also, on June 29, 2017, Letitia “Tish” James, NYC Public Advocate & Working Families Party darling, continued to refer to  President Trump as an ILLEGITIMATE President with many references to things UN-Consitutional while stressing they must continue to RESIST, RESIST, RESIST this administration. (TSM]

How are Letitia James statements not conflicts?

As Community Advocate for NYC, she declared she was at war with MEN: White Men. Men who were “ TOO MALE,TO PALE and TOO STALE”.

So – of course- James REFUSED to debate her “too pale” opponent, Michael Henry:

“The failure to engage in debate is completely undemocratic,” Henry said Sunday. “Letitia James won’t respond to a November 2 debate invitation because she cannot defend her record on crime and corruption before New Yorkers. The last time she took the debate stage in 2018, she promoted a completely cashless bail system and it’s not working.” [NY Post]

Flickr Slide Show: While the Dems attempted to cheer lead and WAKE up their UWS fellow travelers, a diverse, confident and LOUD opposition crowded Verdi Square in support of Lee Zeldin and the Republican ticket.

4 short videos. (Fun) Part 1 – Mark Levine (Manhattan Borough Pres) pointed out that”Trumpians” – and their hatred- were in the crowd. The very LOUD opposition was pro-Zeldin for Governor. (“Arrest Kathy Hochul. We demand Compensation”)

Part 2 – HARD LEFT, Congressman, Jerry Nadler (who is very short) could not be seen over the crowd. Heard a few statements from Nadler. (opposition in the crowd was LOUD) “Republican Party doesn’t believe in Free Elections“, ” Democracy is on the ballot“, “Get Out The Vote. Save This Country

Part 3 – A protestor holding RFK Jrs The Real Dr. Fauci book high above crowd, seemed to get too close to the stage for Levine, so the NYPD dragged him out of the crowd.  (he broke no laws, so they did not hold him).

LOTS of boos aimed at the the Woke Dems and AG Tish James..

Part 4: Intro Sen Brad Lander. Had to shout over the LOUD opposition. pressed these issues: women’s rights, racist memes and working people unions. And labeled Republicans as election deniers and voting rights suppressors. “Don’t get distracted“, he said, “there’s a lot of HATERS out there.”  Then two  State Senators  Serrano and Hoylman stressed their PROGRESSIVE values. While the opposition For Zeldin remained LOUD.

.Kathy HOCHUL was a cowardly NO SHOW. For those who may not know, she is the unelected Governor of New York. It was advertised she would be present to “Get Out The Vote”. However, NO Kathy. (Though a few days later she did manage to attend her ONE debate with Lee Zeldin where she managed to embarrass her self. (Win some – Lose some, Kat)

In a State of ‘Denial’, Hochul calls crime woes a  GOP  conspiracy [NY Post]

Safer places are the Democratic states,” she claimed, in an apparent reference to what fellow Democrat, California Gov. Gavin Newsom labeled “America’s red state murder problem.”

Hochul should Wake Up: Latino supermarket owners back Lee Zeldin [NY Post]

“When you see essential businesses like pharmacies closing their doors because of crime, that’s an alert,” he told The Post. “We would like to see and hear about proposals that will address crime and policies on public safety.” … “Most of us have determined that Zeldin is speaking our language,

Meanwhile, the slander rolls on. They continue to claim the enemy …  to their version of democracy …  is ONLY the Republican party and it’s followers.

The third-ranking House Democrat [House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC)] played the Nazi card ahead of expected Republican wins in next week’s midterm elections, claiming the US is “on track to repeat what happened in Germany.”

“The question is,” Clyburn went on, “are we going to have a society that everyone can participate in? Or are we going to have an autocracy?”

I would advise Rep. James Clyburn to take an intense look at the history of the Democratic [Party] when speaking about Nazi Germany,” one critic tweeted. [NY POST]

Top Republicans looking to NY to flip the House as blue state remains in play before Election Day [NY Post]

New York — of all places — is in play as a swing state on Election Day.

Top Republicans in the House of Representatives say the road to their majority will run through the Empire State, after redistricting left the historically blue stronghold with toss-up seats they aim to turn red.

Republicans need to flip just five seats to take control of the House and snatch the speaker’s gavel from California Rep. Nancy Pelosi.

“Democrats control every level of government in New York and frankly the voters are fed up with the results we’ve seen. That’s the other reason I’m very confident we’re going to have a good night in New York.”

Let’s hope for that Red Wave  cause ….
