International Gift Of Life Walk opposed by Pro-Abortion LGBTQ Marxists

March 25, 2023. 11 AM
The International Gift of Life Walk in Lower Manhattan.

The Gift Of Life Walk gathered a block away from Foley Square because SPIDERMAN was filming on the steps of the Court House.

In a rain that often got heavier, the Pro Life Rally and the very NOISY pro abortion LGBTQ Leftists converged, separated by the NYPD (or so they tried).



Part 1 Flickr Slide show is mainly of the Gift of Life participants

At the relocated Gift Of Life Walk Rally, the NYPD tried to control the vile, rude, and just plain nasty Leftists who manage to go wherever they want.

Watched a creepy leftist drag a tattered America flag across the rain soaked pavement.

Seems the Defund the Police lefties confidently ignore the police.
Part 2 Flickr Slideshow focuses on the pro-abortion creeps.

Part 1 video – The Gift Of Life Rally gathered a block away from Foley Square because of SPIDERMAN was filming. Found the Pro Life Rally  and very NOISY pro abortion LGBTQ lefties as Students from the St. Louis de Montfort Academy joined the walk.

Part 2 video – In a steady rain, the LGBTQ PRO Abortion creeps protested loudly the Gift Of Life Rally. The NYPD tried to control these rude pro abortionists, whose favorite chant was, “Stop Church Pedophilia’. At 1:40, in the background, a creepy leftist can be seen dragging a tattered America flag through the rain soaked pavement.

Students from the St. Louis de Montfort Academy ( in Penn) joined the walk. But first they stood in the rain and played hymns and patriotic music while the nasty LGBTQ brigade banged on lots metal … if it’s metal HIT IT!

This “DEFUND the Police” creep yelled YELLED to SHUT the F**k UP! at the school kids.

Final video of Academy students and protestors (video is posted at Flickr because you tube goes insane over music.)

NYC supported Drag Queen Story Hour Continues at 20th St Library

March 4, 2023.
Andrew Heiskell Library For the Blind-NYC

Another inappropriate Drag Queen Story Hour at 11 AM was protested by the Guardians of Divinity who continue to oppose this misuse of public funds.

Councilman Erik Bottcher and State Sen, Brad Holyman (both gay activists) were on-site, defending these Story Hours as harmless, while accusing the protesters of being “Faces of HATE”.

The Antifa aggressors along with the Rise and Resist leftists assembled claim to protecting the children from the” Save The Children” protestors. But, as usual, they are the aggressors,  physically assaulting the Guardians.

The Guardians continue to ask, “WHY is a grown man dressed as a woman, reading LGBTQ books c to CHILDREN?”

The high dudgeon exhibited by the leftists begs the question, “Would Christians be allowed to read their books with the same support from the city …. like the Drag Queens?”

FLICKR Slide Shows – Part 1 . Guardians of Divinity gathered to Save The Children and to Let Kids Be Kids. The Councilman slandered them as Faces Of Hate: even though their signs are not filled with hate, but concern for the children.

IMG_2176 copy

Part 2 Around 10:30 am. Rise and resist/ antifa thugs blocked the sidewalks and assaulted a Guardian who had arrived early to protest. The cops were in a van so they saw the assault and stopped the Antifas as soon as it started. ( no arrests) and of course the lefties still hung around like they owned the street.

IMG_2101 copy

Part 3 The Rise and Resist Lefties and their Antifa aggressors gathered  mostly in front of the library, but always spill across the street; keeping the NYPD busy attempting to keep them under control.Joining them was the bared chested Crackhead Barney(dressed in religious garb as she had come from the early morning PRO Abortion rally) And Councilman Bottcher and State Sen Holyman, continued the lie that the  protestors were “Faces of HATE”.

IMG_2237 copy

Part 4 So many police on the street and NYPD on scooters. The only issues requiring the police  were recreated by the Antifas, and were handled quickly by the police. But, Councilman Bottcher must have needed the photo-op, cause the amount of police made no sense. Mayor Adams could use the NYPD presence better to curb the growing street crime around the city. Also, working the police as usual, was reporter Talia, who pressures the police with her demands and works to have any press she doesn’t approve of, shut down. Always  busy walking back and forth, like a pit boss. AND, of course, Councilman Bottcher can be observed watching and talking to his friendly media about his “Faces of Hate”

IMG_2215 copy

.Four short Videos-  Part 1 –  Drag Queen Story Hour returned to the Andrew Heiskell Library for the Blind.  In this clip,the Rise and Resit/ Antifa’s blocked the sidewalks and assaulted a Guardian who had arrived early. I saw the assault but camera wasn’t on. The police were sitting in a van at the corner, so as soon as the antifas struck, the cops put an end to the confrontation (though the lefties continued to block the sidewalk)

Part 2  The Guardians gathered to Save The Children and to Let Kids Be Kids, escorted by the NYPD … to keep the Antifas from assaulting them. Unfortunately, the Councilman continues to slander them as Faces Of Hate. But, their signs are not filled with hate. It is concern for the children.

Part 3 – The Guardians of Divinity gathered across from the Andrew Heiskell Library .Their signs were not filled with hate. TTheir signs: “Save The Children” and “Let Kids Be Kids”. and ”Stop Confusing the Kids” The Councilman continues to mislabel them as Faces Of Hate when their signs are not filled with hate. It is concern for the children.

.Part 4 –   Stop Drag Queen Story Hour because it is inappropriate for children. That was why they chanted ” Shut It Down” . Though accused of being “Faces of Hate” by the local Councilman, their signs show otherwise. They say it is about concern for the children.

And coming up next is a NYC supported 4 Part MARATHON of Drag Queens reading to children . On Sunday, March 19th- From 11 am to 3 pm. Supported not only by NY’s local politicians but even (shamefully) Letitia James, NY Attorney General (taking a break from harassing President Trump)

Eve though Drag queen story hours for kids have been held at public libraries across the city since 2017, the events have recently drawn backlash and violent protests. The outrage in this NY Post article is encouraging:

New York Attorney General Letitia James is set to host a “Drag Story Hour” for children in Manhattan this weekend — and the event is sparking outrage over the use of taxpayer money for the already controversial event.

James and a string of fellow elected Democratic city and state leaders plan to attend Sunday’s event in the West Village where “families with children” are invited to watch drag performers read books over a four-hour stretch.

The AG’s March 19 event is co-sponsored by Drag Story Hour NYC — a nonprofit that has been showered in taxpayers funds, which has enabled them to send drag performers into public schools and libraries to interact with children as young as 3.

“My office is proud to host a Drag Story Hour read-a-thon,” James wrote on Instagram as she promoted the event. “We’re inviting families to join us at the @lgbtcenternyc with @dragstoryhour, drag storytellers, community leaders, and elected officials.”

News of the event sparked immediate backlash on Twitter, with some claiming New Yorkers’ tax dollars were “hard at work grooming kids.”

Why?? Why???? What is the purpose of government funded drag queens for children? To teach tolerance? BS,” Matt Antar, the New York Young Republican Club’s finance chairman, tweeted.

“Drag is a profession, not a “type of person.” A profession where adult men do exaggerated female impersonations often scantily clad with sexual themes… This is not the way.”

Conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair also chimed in, tweeting: “The “family-friendly” event will take place at the ‘Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center.’ Your tax dollars are hard at work grooming kids!”

Steve Cortes, a former spokesman for President Trump’s campaign, added: “This kind of explicit targeting of children is just evil.”

“Grownups want to dress in drag? More power to them. But what is this fascination with wanting people to bring their kids to your drag show?” TV personality Judge Alex Ferrer tweeted.

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/

Flickr slide show:  As members of the Peace Action NYC, The Raging Grannies sang a bunch of protest songs, holding banners and signs, as a couple of speakers followed on the steps of the Main NYC Library.

IMG_1539 copy

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]

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.”

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]

[https://youtu.be/6HWdNyvWg48]

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.

DSC_8104 copy

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 ….

New York State Quarantine Camps On Trial. Exposing The Terrifying Agenda of Governor Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James.

Leftists Defend Abortion (Defeat the Right) in Foley Sq NYC

Oct 8, 2022 – Noon. Foley Square. NYC.
Pro-abortion protestors (young and old)


… male, female and … in between…

.They filled Foley square, DEMANDING unlimited access to abortions.

.Their protest hosts were the usual Socialist Marxists, made obvious by their manufactured and message dictated signs from Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSLweb.org); RevCom.us; RiseUp4AbortionRights.org; Four Freedoms Democrat Club; and Socialist Workers Party.

However, these very confidently smug men and women lost their ‘cool’ when about 4 or 5 self proclaimed Progressives – PRO-LIFEers from PAAU (Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising) – bravely shouting over the crowd “Abortion is Murder”.

“PAAU is calling on every progressive American to join our campaign to end the influence of Big Abortion within the Democratic Party and in progressive cities across the nation.” [https://paaunow.org/]

Abortion Extremism Ends Now!

“Our mission is to mobilize grassroots anti-abortion activists for direct action and educate on the exploitative influence of the Abortion Industrial Complex through an anti-capitalist lens.

We’re progressive grassroots activists dismantling the abortion industrial complex & standing in solidarity with the unborn victims killed by abortion violence. PAAU info.”

These anti -abortion signs turned the pro-abortion socialists in to a frothing mass of piranha. (2 crowd pics from Getty) Disgusting but exposing the predictable hatred from the left.

Flickr Part 1 – Pro-abortion protestors, many were very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers..

Part 3 -Pro-abortion protestors  and the Socialist Marxist agitators lost their ‘cool’, surrounding 4 or 5 PRO LIFEers who held their signs high and bravely shouted “Abortion is Murder”.

Along with tables of reading materials (RevCom offers a roadmap to the Revolution)

Leftists papers were also handed out at the protest

Spartacist (The International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist) is a proletarian, revolutionary and internationalist tendency committed to the task of building Leninist parties as national sections of a democratic-centralist international. Our aim is the achievement of new October Revolutions—nothing else, nothing other, nothing less.)

(The Militant Table)
The Militant,( A SOCIALIST NEWSWEEKLY PUBLISHED IN THE INTERESTS OF WORKING PEOPLE)

WASHINGTON — Thousands of people, including many young women, turned out for the “Women’s Wave” march here Oct. 8, as they did in similar actions across the country. Organizers appealed to them to join in campaigning and voting for Democratic Party candidates in the November elections….“They say vote Democrat, but the Democrats are already in power and what good has that done?” Aurozo Niaz told this Militant worker-correspondent.

Niaz is a 22-year-old member of the Young Democratic Socialists of America...  agreed that the DSA backs the Democratic Party and was interested in learning more about the Socialist Workers Party’s call for working people to break from the Democrats and Republicans and to fight for a labor party based on our unions.

They put up tables with the Militant, books and signs highlighting a working-class road forward, including to woman’s emancipation …  “For reproductive and maternal health care, sex education, safe and reliable contraception, safe and legal abortion,” read one sign. “For a jobs program and working conditions that allow family time … “Defend constitutional freedoms. No to the FBI, the rulers’ political police,” said a third.

At the rally in New York City, SWP members included a sign that read, “Decriminalize abortion, no to population control!” These signs help spur broader discussion about the character of the crisis facing working people and what we should do about it.” (The Militant)

VOTE!

.The women of Iran was a hot topic (there were many signs)

Saw signs from the liberal Jews:  Zioness – Truah

WITCHES – VOTE

And of course the lib/prog/commies are anti-anything and everything GOP .

GOP’s are evil cause they don’t care about women.

Three short videos of the leftist’s Propaganda Indoctrination .

Part 1 –Pro-abortion protestors and some very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers. (The manufactured signs made no secret of who was promoting this protest)

Part 2-Pro-abortion protestors and some very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers.

However, there are always those who seek justice through a larger lens….it’s not just about abortion.

Part 3 – Still, the group of Pro-abortion protestors (and some very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers) lost their ‘cool’ and surrounded the only 4 or 5 PRO LIFEers who held their signs high and bravely shouted “Abortion is Murder

.Cracks in the picture. Now that they’re seeing 3D and 4D imaging, it’s no wonder the argument that a fetus is “just a clump of cells” seems to be losing its credibility.

Today, ultrasounds are more advanced than ever. Gone is the era of the traditional, black and white, grainy 2D images. Now, through 3D, 4D, and HD ultrasounds — which were developed and entered commercial use in the 1990s — women are able to access clear, photo-quality images of fetuses and even video footage of the fetus’ movement. 

These technological advances make detecting birth defects and abnormalities easier for medical professionals. They also are enabling women to come face to face with the tissue, organs, anatomy, and even the individual facial features of the fetus AKA BABY  growing inside of them.

…this is having a meaningful impact on sentiments about abortion—not just for mothers considering them like Sarah, but also for the public as a whole.“The focus groups kept bringing up ultrasounds — and the refinement of ultrasounds and 3D ultrasounds—and they just said, ‘Well, that’s a baby,’” Anderson explained. “The science of imaging has moved to a point where your average voter now says, ‘I’m not going to argue over whether that’s a baby. I know it’s a baby. Now, let’s talk about how we balance all this out, and balance that with the rights of the mother.

Not everyone embraces the socialist revolution.“Join the Revolution” is looking a bit worn and damaged.

 But so many commie/soc/progs continue to encourage “The Revolution”.
And unlike the Jan 6 prisoners … Our government is protecting this insurrection:

Council member, Joann Ariola.  Teachers, essential workers, NYPD, FDNY: pre-vaccine they never stopped working. Many did not want to submit to the forced vax. Referring to new mayor’s administration, new health commissioner, she says they are willing to listen. CDC now admits natural immunity which  is just as good as vax in fight against covid.

Councilman Robert F. Holden said,  Mr Mayor: time to put every New Yorker back to work. Mandates were  de Blasio’s creations.  It’s a shame to carry them forth. This is not 2020. CDC says covid is not a serious threat of illness or death. Health commissioner is ignoring the CDC. We need to go back to NORMAL. Back to work. We need the courage to stand up.

Councilmember Vicky Paladino. I started this fight a year ago. Never thought it would go this far. People have lost their jobs. Leave without pay. It’s now 2022. Time to put people back to work. In 2020. the police/fire department  were out of the streets working. New CDC guidelines says it’s TIME to get back to normal.

Councilmember David Carr: Vax mandate was NEVER necessary. No one should be punished for personal medical decision. NY is supposed to be a labor friendly town. . The mandates need to end. They should never have started. Travesty. Should have ended months ago

Daniel….  spoke instead of Councilwoman Inna Vernikov . He said termination of employees unvaxed must end immediately.

UFA vice president Robert Eustace — mentioned 9-11 in 2 days. Pointed out there was not enough testing of vaccine. Common sense is “get back to work”.

Reporter CBS asked questions: only NY – drs heatlj commison- forced vax mandates. how many termininated- Michael Kane answered. 400-500.  want job back must be vaxed ( blk man) woman – nypd- lots are retiring.

So many sirens thru the whole un-amplified presser that I was unable to post a couple of speakers: Court officer, Chris Sperber, running for State Assembly, District 11, an NYPD officer born and raised in Albania and Daniel…. who spoke for councilwoman Inna Vernikov.

Later, in the City Council Labor Meeting, forced to retire FDNY Capt. Brendan Fogarty railed against the vaccine mandates.

The following Council Members participate in this Common Cause Caucus:

A quartet of conservative City Council members turned a hearing on the municipal government’s soaring vacancy rates into an anti-vaccine mandate spectacle Friday amid buzz that Mayor Adams could be on the brink of peeling back some of New York’s remaining coronavirus restrictions.

“We’re not in 2020, we’re not in 2021, the city should get back to normal,” he said. “The city should lift everything.”

Despite their focus on the mandate, only 1,761 city employees had gotten fired for refusing to get vaccinated as of Aug. 30 — a fraction of the more than 330,000 posts across all municipal agencies, according to data from the mayor’s office. Another 583 unvaccinated workers remain on unpaid leave while waiting on the city to review their applications for exemptions to the mandate, the data shows.

The hearing in the Council’s Civil Service and Labor Committee featured testimony from members of Adams’ administration on what they’re doing to improve the city government’s job vacancy rate, which stands at 8.3% — more than five times higher than pre-pandemic levels. [NY Daily News]

.UPDATE:

“As of July, more than 1,750 city workers were fired for not getting the COVID-19 vaccine — including at least 36 from the NYPD.A spokesman from the city Law Department said: “A court has previously upheld the NYPD’s reasonable accommodation process, ruling it complies with all applicable laws. Both the NYPD and a citywide appeals panel carefully reviewed this officer’s accommodation request. The city is reviewing this decision and is considering its options.The NYPD and City Hall deferred comment to the Law Department” [NY POST]

Mayor Adams END these illegal mandates.

LET US WORK!

Marxist Pacifists disparage 77th & 76th Anniv. of Japan A-Bombs that ended WW2

In 2021-22, the Marxists seemed to be the only ones to remember, though imperfectly, the A-Bombs of 1945. Their one  goal at these protests is  abolishing nuclear weapons.

 ++ Was dropping the atomic bomb justified?++

Dec. 7, 1941 (a day that would live in infamy) to Aug 6-9, 1945 (VJ Day celebrations in Times Sq). BUT, the Japanese aggression is conveniently omitted.

: Gen. Minoru Genda, who helped plan the attack on Pearl Harbor, stated at a Naval Institute event in 1969 that he was not bitter towards the U.S. for dropping the bomb on his hometown of #Hiroshima. He said “if we had the atomic bomb in 1945, we would have dropped it on you.”

Image

The only ‘take away’ for these dedicated Marxist Pacifists is to STOP all things nuclear, demanding NYC to be a Nuclear Free Zone. SO, every August these mostly senior pacifists gather to protest nuclear weapons (AND energy).

Japanese survivors participate – but the speakers both years, were barely amplified so they were difficult to understand.

FIRST: On Aug 6, 2021, at 11 am, the 76th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki protestors gathered in the courtyard entrance to Mayor Dinkins municipal building across from City Hall.

”Join the Community of NYC Nuclear Weapons Free Heroes”

Rise and Resist-NY” Marxists demanded that NY City Council Speaker Corey Johnson pass Nuclear Disarmament Legislation Now. They chose this location because the development of the atomic bomb began across Centre street at 270 Broadway, the first headquarters of the Manhattan Project in 1942–43.

The posters focused on the American Marxist pacifists. Their speeches and posters neglected to mention the Japanese civilians victimized by their own Japanese war machine.

Flickr slide show of 76th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Marxist loving “Rise and Resisters -NY” demanded that Speaker Johnson pass Nuclear Disarmament Legislation Now! and join the community of NYC Nuclear Weapons Free Heroes.

aug 6 dinkins

Video – First fellow was reading the legislation demand from his cell phone, un-amplified so audio competed with traffic.

The second was an older fellow (at 1:35) proudly told of a protest at a nuclear submarine (the USS Florida). I didn’t hear a year but I think it was 2018.

The Kings Bay Plowshares Seven. The seven Catholic plowshare activists who disarmed weapons at the Kings Bay Naval Base, Georgia in 2018  are now facing years of prison for their act of disarmament. 

He said he masqueraded as one of 4 workers with hard hats who boarded the submarine …  for 25-30 minutes. Once they unfurled their protest banners, THEN security was called to remove them.  He also said, at the same time, five other protestors with hammers were damaging (a sonar sphere) and mentioned an associate who travels with a smithy  … turning weapons into plowshares; hammered into weapons of soil to create life not take life. “This is how disarmament starts”, he says. [End Video]

Turning now to the 2022 and the 77th Anniversary in Manhattan and  their nuclear anniversary weapons protest.  

Aug. 5, 2022 – Outside the Japanese consulate. NYC. This year there was such an obsession with MASKING that the muffled English language interpreter was wasted. Disappointed to not get a good audio  of the survivor speakers

Flickr slide show – Raging Grannies for Peace, Rise and Resisters – Marxists all – protesting nuclear bombs, protesting nuclear energy

IMG_7793 copy

Video 1 –The very Left -leaning Pacifist “Raging Grannies” were the pre-speakers ‘entertainment’ outside the NYC Japanese Consulate. Mourning the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 (that ended WW2 and saved lives) the Raging Grannies (for Peace) were protesting nuclear bombs and protesting nuclear energy with “No nukes. No Nukes. No Nukes.

Video 2 – Ringing a  bell for peace & prayer at 77th Anniversary of Hiroshima/Nagasaki.

See phot0 essay at NY Daily News of the 1945 aftermath

[NY Daily News Hiroshima]

The conflict over ”to be nuclear or not” goes on and on. The Marxists  claim to oppose anything nuclear but they are predictably inconsistent …. a Rise and Resist-NY blind spot: a nuclear IRAN (UANI 2017)

Should we expect they will hop-a-boat to the land of Persia and vandalize their nuclear bases? How far would they get with that protest action.

 The real enemies of peace go unchallenged.
It’s the Communist Way : Confuse. Divide. Conquer.

Thousands protest in Washington Sq after Roe v. Wade overturned

June 24, 2022 . 6:3o pm. Washington Square.
All Out For Abortion Rights


“Divided Supreme Court overturns Roe abortion precedents”
(Link to National Constitution Center)

Took many pictures of the protest, cause there were so many signs. Lots of hidden gems spewed by the misinformed.

“Bodily Autonomy for Transgender Youth…” You’re not saving babies you’re killing WomXn”


Flickr Slide show-
If not in a hurry, take the time to scroll thru the slide show and zero in on the crowd signage. 

IMG_7117 copy

.Scheduled for 6;30 pm in Washington Sq. where the protestors had gathered much earlier.

The place was packed and had spilled into the street by 6:15. Forget filming speakers. (Not that they ever say anything new)

The crowd was young. Very white. And never stopped walking – fast- towards the Washington Sq arch. I couldn’t take pictures fast enough, as they hurried past me. Intensely, like ( the green sign) “Dykes 4 Abortion”

Happy. Smiling. 1973 T’s were popular

No intense anger as many hurried by. Just a crowd looking forward to the PARTY.

(Gays Against Guns, the day before, now THEY were ANGRY)

Of course, their signs were a different matter, like : “Adoptee FOR Abortion”, ” Republicans are for Li X e

News coverage always spoke of an angry crowd, not really, even though most of the signs were certainly pointedly snarky.

Political – they just can’t accept President Trump WAS legitimate.


“Globalize the Intifada” – He was part of the lefty Bike Brigade

Impatient for CHANGE signs.

Rude. Profane.

Many were definitely anti-Religion

Some  of the news coverage:

A Florida judge has temporarily blocked a ban on abortions after 15 weeks that was set to begin Friday.

Planned Parenthood, the American Civil Liberties Union and abortion providers filed suit to stymie the law, arguing that it violated the state’s constitution.

Parties opposed to the 15-week ban pushed back against the legislation, asserting that the Sunshine State constitution guarantees the right to an abortion.

Their legal challenge leaned on a 1980 amendment that guaranteed a broad right to privacy. The state Supreme Court previously interpreted those rights to include access to abortion.” [NY Post]

Two Comments from NY Post article:

“So the legislature passes the fifteen week ban and the governor signs it. Maybe I am confused, but isn’t this exactly how SCOTUS said that this process is supposed to work? I could have sworn that is what they said in their ruling last Friday. Six days later a judge say’s “sorry….not happening”. Even though the process worked exactly as it is supposed to.” [comment 1]

Socialicommimarxifascist” shifferbrains, following the U.S. Constitution is what judges are SWORN to do. Only in “socialicommimarxifascistidiotland do people think otherwise.” [comment 2]

Forced Motherhood is Female Enslavement”

++
Thousands of protesters converged in Manhattan’s Washington Square Park One cop estimated there were 17,000 people in the crowd.

New York Attorney General Letitia James (too male too pale Letitia ( 2/6/17) ” 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”)

On this day, June 24, she grabbed a bullhorn under the park’s renowned arch and slammed the Supreme Court as “radical.”

“Every movement in this country, every revolution we’ve ever experienced in this country, has not been led by elected officials, it’s been led by all of you who are here today to demand justice,” James told protesters.

“The only way we can respond to this political decision is a political response is to vote. Vote for those women who will not have rights to abortion. Vote for all those in harm’s way today. Vote against the Supreme Court of the United States, our radical right-wing Supreme Court.” [NY Post]

Thousands of protesters gather inside Washington Square Park.
Paul Martinka

The  Union Sq. March to Washington Sq. (link has great pics of the different rally locations) Protesters had also crowded Union Square to show anger over end of abortion rights.

++ Here we are, now, on July 2nd, and the nasty RUDE in-your-face leftists are definitely Behaving Badly:

And even nastier, pro-abortion protesters target Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s home:

Impeach Expand Codify,” and “Liar” with a photo of Barrett printed underneath. Following the decision — which returns the issue of abortion to each of the 50 states —a number of states implemented so-called “trigger laws” that banned or restricted abortion with immediate effect. [NY Post]

SCOTUS security chief asks governors to halt protests at justices’ homes

“The Supreme Court’s security chief has asked officials in Maryland and Virginia to pull the plug on picketing and “threatening activity” outside justices’ homes — after the US Department of Justice dragged its feet on enforcing federal laws barring such protests. (The activist group Ruth Sent Us doxxed the court’s conservative justices in early May, when an unprecedented leak of a draft opinion revealed their plans to overturn Roe v. Wade.)” [NY Post]

And then … there’s THIS development:

Men are hurrying to get vasectomies in the wake of the bombshell Supreme Court decision to overturn the Roe v. Wade abortion ruling, doctors say.” (Really??) [NY Post]

‘Cause they FEAR this?:  Green-Haired, Morbidly Obese Leftist Women Call for Sex Strike Over Abortion Ruling (Terms that are very acceptable)

“And so one Twitter user posted a graphic that said: “Women of America: Take the pledge. Because SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade, we cannot take the risk of an unintended pregnancy, therefore, we will not have sex with any man — including our husbands — unless we are trying to become pregnant.”  In response, another Twitter user wrote:

“Finally, you figured out how not to get pregnant, that wasn’t that hard was it?” Ouch!

Women of the Left, once again: your terms are more than generous and gratefully accepted.( Robert Spencer)

NYC Climate Radicals Demand Climate Justice Now!

On April 23, 2022 , Extinction Rebellion (and other radicals like Rise and Resist) gathered at the 72nd st entrance to Central Park where they prepared to March for Climate Justice in the streets of Manhattan.

CLIMATE is Racist! “The climate and ecological emergency is a trauma inflicted on all beings by white supremacy…  to unlearn embodied, racialized behaviors. 

Eco-Warriors Or Climate Change Morons

“WE DECLARE NON-VIOLENT REBELLION AGAINST THE US GOVERNMENT FOR ITS CRIMINAL INACTION ON THE ECOLOGICAL CRISIS”

Part 1 slide show – We’re in a climate f****** emergency!”
[Extinction Rebellion – March for Science]

IMG_3041 copy

The entrance to the park was very busy with pedicabs and strollers, not just the climate radicals, even an ambulance attempting to pass as the protestors listened to a few speakers before they “Marched for Science“.

 A steady propaganda diet, fed relentlessly for decades in our schools and by the media has filled generations with fear. The Planet is doomed without Climate Justice. Part 2 slide show :

IMG_3151 copy

.Video # 1– First, before the climate protestors “Marched for Science”, a short video with lots of chanting:

“What do we want? Justice. If we don’t get it shut it down.” “No more Coal. No more Oil. Keep your (climate) in the soil.”  and of course:  “Hey Hey Ho Ho Climate Change has Got to Go”

And signs. Lots of signs:

Climate Action Now; Fight For Our Future; Dayenu ; Enough with the Climate Conspiracy; Ban Fracking Now; The Climate Crisis is Here” and my personal favorite:”Destroy the Patriarchy, Not the Planet.”


Video 2- Four speakers represented the youthful protestors: High school and college-age. They spoke briefly (excerpted)

Climate Justice IS Political. No more Fossil Fuel infrastructure. No New Jails. Demand Green spaces in our infrastructure.”

March for Science is not just non-partisan, it is political. To live on this earth is to be affected by the climate crisis. To live in this city. This country is to be affected by politics.”

“Demand climate justice for all communities. Demand it now. Science not Silence.”

And of course,  “Show me what democracy looks like. This is what democracy looks like

Video 3 – A very political young man with a very POLITICAL speech, (excerpted) exposing the depth of his hard-core indoctrination:

“I am here to demand a livable future for us all. Administration after administration. Congress after Congress. My entire lifetime we have been promised a livable future and we have been delivered NOTHING. That’s what this movement is about. Our collective energy to demand  Climate Justice.”

Re the midterm elections.  “To decide the balance of Congress. Our Senate. Our House of Rep. It is on us to demand a better future by showing up at the ballot.

We know the climate crisis impacts vulnerable communities, the most intensely. Black. Brown. Indigenous. People of color. LGTBQ. The communities most intensely impacted by climate crisis. Those are the same communities, there are over 400 Bills – across the country to stop those communities from voting. we will not STAND for Voter Suppression. we will not STAND for the demolition of our democracy. We will stand on the streets and DEMAND a BETTER FUTURE.

50 years of empty promises. VOTE so we can ensure a livable planet. This is what democracy looks like.

Video 4 : Melissa from March for Science NYC:

Science is Political “(again) “But it should never be partisan. No matter what party is in power, we should have science evidence policy on the table. We should remain vigilant no matter who is in power. Currently in NY State,  3 Democrat leaders who claim to Follow the Science. It has not been enough. We need to know our worth and to ask for more. To ask for more climate action now. We are experiencing not just climate change, but a climate crisis. And we need to act like it. We need bold and consistent action to save our planet and our species. 

We cannot play politics with our environment; we need bold and consistent action to reverse climate change. This year at the Federal level, with the mid-term elections, to vote, hold accountable, get things passed like the Build Back Better Bill and the Voting Rights Act, which together will us fight Climate Change. We need climate action now, not in five years.

[lastly] …  cut back on our emissions from our fossil fuel buildings. This is critical. 70% of fossil fuels emissions from the city come from our buildings. We are one of the biggest polluters in the country. Hold all leaders accountable no matter what party they are in; no matter how much they try to distract us mediocre and symbolic actions. We will not be appeased. We know our worth. the worth of our planet.

Video 5 – Jillian is a virologist and mother of two. She mentions pandemic parenting and how the pandemic has intertwined the two.

“In the Spring of 2020, while her colleagues at Mt. Sinai worked round the clock, she was at home with her 3 and 6 yrs old children. Day care and schools were closed, the city was on lock-down. While quarantined and home-schooling her two small children, she was also answering Covid questions from scared friends and family –  fighting the endless disinformation about the pandemic.

She shared that she was grateful for the questions, it meant people actually cared about the data.

After more than two years of this pandemic, I know how easy it is to let cynicism win. Parents are exhausted, particularly of under 5 yrs olds. We faced school closures. had to weigh risks and benefits of sending our un-vaccinated kids to ‘in-person’ schools. It’s been scary and demoralizing.Parents of kids who are too young to be vaccinated feel ignored and betrayed. Masks mandates being dropped while there is still no vaccine approved for kids in their age group. I hear your rage and frustration. Demand change from our political leaders. As adults it is our responsibility to leave the world a better place for our children than we inherited. Finally, Science should be for everyone. I encourage all my …. scientists to break out of the bubble. The most meaningful science in the past two years … it’s been communicating with my friends, my family and my social circle. Those conversations matter.”

Video 6: 14 yrs old student activist named, Theo.   After the crowd chanted “Stand up, Fight Back” Theo told us of a Walk-Out For Covid Safety that he led.  they are upset that Mayor Adams ignored their demands:

K95 masks for all. Covid testing for every student in our socio-economic status. Quality air-filtration in all our schools.  (unclear “…. “) a new generation of scientists to combat any future pandemic we may face’ Today we march and tomorrow you will listen.”

.10th Day of the Rebellion as rebels take midtown

We are heading for catastrophe. This is the type of actions we must take to stop the #ClimateCrisis before it will be to late … …chanting for action on climate change.FOX news; Bryant Park  sit in on the corner of 42nd and 6th Ave. [Extinction Rebellion]

The climate activists tried to stop  N.Y. Post from publishing.

We fight for a just world and stand in solidarity with the struggle for Black Lives. Take action for Black Lives and support radical Black leadership. End white supremacy now.” #BlackLivesMatter

“misleading advertisements on Twitter that contradict the scientific consensus on climate change” will be prohibited along side other types of banned content, which include campaigns that contain violence, profanity or personal attacks.

misleading information about climate change can undermine efforts to protect the planet.”
