    A Harvard professor published research showing no evidence of racial bias in Police / Blacks shootings. He now has to live with armed guards because of publishing the truth.

    BTW, the ex-president of Harvard said the professor who published the truth did not meet Harvard's standards... Yes, miss plagiarist paints criticized him.

    One of their primary characteristics is that they accuse others of things that they are guilty of.

    I don't think Fanni even realizes that she's doing it though, because the poor lady doesn't seem very intelligent.

    Politicians, and now the justice system, are as corrupt as the day is long... I think, I know, that these people know what they are doing. I think they feel that they'll get away with it because of their political back ground.

    Take Hunter... He might just get away with everything because of who he is... His daddy's memory is so bad he might forget to pardon him on his last day in office.

    Fanni will get away with it, but she's dumb for not covering her tracks. Being on the Democrats' payroll can be a really good thing for people who don't want to work hard for their money. But she's blowing it, and soon she will be useless to them, and she'll have to get a job.

    Yes. I'm from upstate NY. I heard about the NYC boycott and I love it. NYC is a busy city. No deliveries (I predict) is going to hurt NYC businesses, but they're going to have to roll with the punches because this is for a good cause.

    I don't think it will affect my region. But even if it did, I'm so grateful for everything Trump has done and continues to do, that it's worth it to me.

    No. These Operatives can only parrot what their masters tell them.

    Most of their employees understand the value of the Soros dollar, but Fanni makes the same kinds of mistakes that Andrew Cuomo made.

    If the Democrats ever put me on their payroll, I wouldn't mess it up. I'd be scared for my life. What will they do with her if she messes up the Trump case? She'll end up like Alexei Navalny.

    Just like COVID... stock up on toilet paper!!!

    There was a story a few years back where some truck driver and there were deaths involved. It was an accident the truck driver wasn't impaired or anything... A judge sentenced the deriver to 110 years in jail... Independent truckers refused to go to Colorado and they brought the state to it's knees... Diver's sentence was appealed and was given 10 years... Something more appropriate.

    Is it just me, or does it seem like Elitist Operatives never think about the consequences of their actions?

    Ex: In NYC, the action was "Get Trump". So Engeron hits Trump with a $350 million judgement (plus restrictions) in a trial where there are no victims, no defendents, for something that EVERY other real estate investor does.

    Then the Elitists act surprised when real estate investors say that they won't do business in NYC anymore and Hochul has to say the quiet part out loud:

    The single biggest protest that I can recall was the Trucker protest in Canada. It drew so much attention to their cause and inspired similar type protests around the world, with farmers and truckers.

    The democrats have the media in their pocket and you are, at times, shielded from seeing the truth.

    Here's a short video on the guy who started the movement... I think he's talked to a lawyer... He's toned things down a little whereby he doesn't want to be perceived as "The Leader" in case NYC sues him. He did say he turned down interviews with FOX and NewsMax but is doing one with Tucker.

    What the media won't be able to hide from the public, if this has any momentum at all, are the empty shelves.

    Investors, or anyone for that matter, should take what they did to Trump as a warning.


    People who have jobs won't protest. It would be difficult to convince someone to take a vacation day to protest against political lawfare.


    There are some people out there with character... They are refusing loads to NYC... not anywhere else... So they go to Alabama instead.... In the last video I tagged here... even if 10% of the truck drivers refuse will change things drastically in NYC on pricing along.


    But if we wanted to start a protest against something stupid, we'd have
    no trouble at all.


    Protesting against lawfare as the Democrats are using the justice system against the political opposition to affect the 2024 election... This is the end of the country...

    I don't blame the guy for backing down (seems like he did.) How can truckers keep their jobs if they refuse to make deliveries to a certain city?

    Or if they're supposed to be out making deliveries - but instead they are parked along the US-Mexico border instead? They'll get fired. We don't want that.

    Truckers aren't wealthy enough to make that sacrifice.

    talked to a lawyer... He's toned things down a little whereby he
    doesn't want to be perceived as "The Leader" in case NYC sues him. He

    It's smart. I hate what Biden and his minions are doing to our country, but I won't accelerate the loss of my livelihood because of it.

    The liberal lady in the video is right. Not all truckers are conservatives, I assume, but if they can drive prices up enough, that just might do the trick!

    It doesn't stop there... Kevin O'Leary, he's an investor... He's Canadian... either US or has an Investor Visa... He has a large
    footprint in either country... He's been on CNN and other news outlets saying this...

    Businesses that take out loans will think twice before they take out a loan in New York, especially if they are a business that isn't loved and appreciated by the globalist community. $400,000,000 is a lot to lose!

    I was listening to someone earlier this week who thought Mayorkas should not have been impeached... But rather it should have been Joe Biden because its his policies that Mayorkas is implementing... Nice logic... but at the end of WWII they held trials and hung people who were guards at concentration camps... you couldn't just say "I was doing what I was told"...

    Though this is a delay tactic for sure... They don't want to make public what is going on for those people that are asleep... With a trial out comes the facts...

    But the other skank says that she's gonna seize his property. Can she
    do that ahead of the appeal process?

    I don't think she can just do it.

    Trump will have to put up a bond for the amount of the judgement, or just pay it in cash if he chooses.

    Failing that his properties or other assets will likely be sold to cover these costs.

    The Donald has said he has close to that on hand, so I don't think he'll have a propblem putting up the bond, unless he was lying.

    There's a process that has to be followed and Trump can delay that for quite some time.

    That is what Donald Trump has been doing and will likely continue to do.

    This judgement is a done deal now, and there are more heading his way.

    I don't blame the guy for backing down (seems like he did.) How can truckers keep their jobs if they refuse to make deliveries to a certain city?

    Or if they're supposed to be out making deliveries - but instead they are parked along the US-Mexico border instead? They'll get fired. We don't want that.

    Truckers aren't wealthy enough to make that sacrifice.


    Tucker had an interview with one of the Truckers yesterday. The actual interview was brief, probably so as to not harm the trucker... But he did fill the video with the the facts and ideas that were behind the trucker's boycott.

    It's smart. I hate what Biden and his minions are doing to our country, but I won't accelerate the loss of my livelihood because of it.


    If people don't step up and do something life as we know it won't exist... Truckers need to concern themselves... Biden wants to ban diesel trucks... How hard is it going to be a Trucker without a truck!!!


    Businesses that take out loans will think twice before they take out a loan in New York, especially if they are a business that isn't loved and appreciated by the globalist community. $400,000,000 is a lot to lose!


    There are more than a few large businesses looking to leave NY completely because of the ruling, I don't blame them. This may be the beginning of the end for NYC & NY.

    Then the Elitists act surprised when real estate investors say that they won't do business in NYC anymore and Hochul has to say the quiet part
    out loud: "This verdict was only for Trump."

    I was going to post about this, but you beat me to it.

    Hochul should be arrested for saying that out loud. For a minute there,
    it sounds like she's telling the truth (that it's "only for Trump") but just wait until some other billionaire philanthropist runs for
    president; she'll fix them right up too.

    Context is king, unless it doesn't support your narrative.

    "Hochul joined John Catsimatidis on The Cats Roundtable on WABC 770 AM,
    where she was asked if other New York businesspeople should be worried
    that if they can do that to the former president, they can do that to
    anybody.

    I think that this is really an extraordinre very different than Donald
    Trump and his behavior, Hochul responded.ary, unusual circumstance that
    the law-abiding and rule-following New Yorkers who are business people
    have nothing to worry about, because they're very different than Donald
    Trump and his behavior..."

    What charge would you like to levy against Gov. Hochul?

    I like what the trucker said to Tucker in that video, but I'm still puzzled about why the protest hasn't taken place yet.


    There intent is not block or shut down access to the city but rather not to take loads to the city. They don't need 100% compliance of all the Truckers,
    but rather 10% or more will do just fine.

    There was a story where a Trucker said NO to NYC... They offered him an additional $3,000.00 and he took it. New Yorkers will pay, extra costs and lack of supply. It took a month to bring Colorado to its knees.

    What will affect NY in the long run is the business capital that is leaving... Whey the business moves out of state they take the jobs and tax capital with it. The truck drivers will only have a short term affect where as the investment capital leaving NY will have a longterm and more devastating affect.

    Some years ago... 25 or more... I use to travel to Buffalo NY to fly out... I'd be entering in through Canada... Anyway, on the way to the Airport, on the right, is a large empty factory there... One that use to be active, at some point, must have employed 100s or even 1000s... empty and nonoperational ... The political leaders have been selling out the country for decades...

    https://youtu.be/sKbbOa94UaE?si=WGfTBBehBl2DGjzL

    There is a TouTuber named Benny Johnson and he went to Nikki's hometown to interview residences of that community. I was sick to my stomach with the how run down the place was... The downtown core was a ghost town... Run down and completely empty.

    In Crystal River Florida... a few years back... Citrus county produced a professional baseball player and a country singer. Both use to travel back once a year to raise money for the community. Crystsal River is the home of some of the best baseball diamonds and soccer fields that anywhere else because these 2 people raising money for their home towns.

    There was a building in Nikki's hometown completely destroyed from a storm that still sits there... with bricks still on the road in front of it and she doesn't do a thing for her community.

    You think with all that influencing she does she could get someone to take that building down or fix it.

    I can see why her hometown are not voting for her.

    Forever or, at least since 1/6/2021, Trump and his supporters have claimed there was no insurrection.

    Earlier this week, Trump had some sort of press conference outside Mara Lago where he has now said that there *was* an insurrection "caused by Nancy Pelosi..."

    Some politicians here locally may have done that in the past 20-30 years but I can certainly not guarantee that the people who got sacked were the people responsible (as opposed to, say, the people who were just following bad orders from above).

    Gonna run a business in NY? Better be a cash-only operation, and better that cash out of here before Leticia James puts her sharp, curved reptil claws into it.

    Letitia James has not put her "claws" on anyone. She indicted Trump and she proved her case in court, in Sept, 2023.

    It's not fair. Not until every person who gave incorrect information on their loan applications are fined for it.

    Thousands of retail stores, in NY alone, were looted in 2020, according
    to the media. What good does that do for small businesses?

    And the crucifixion of Trump shows what the outlook is like for big businesses.

    No, he won't. Not like Don. When Trump was president, the Democrats didn't waste time before impeaching him. Trump already had his day in court for the charge of violating his oath. Bob Menendez is still a senator, he's still voting on issues that affect us, and he has not been impeached, and his colleagues act like it's no big deal.

    Yeah, he will. Just like Don.

    When Trump was president, the Democrats didn't waste time before impeaching him.

    I guess they didn't. It's too bad the republican party wasn't the party of law & order that they claim to be, could have been done with Don then.

    Instead, they have this silly idea he is going to be president again.

    Trump already had his day in court for the charge of violating his oath.

    His day in court? You are mistaken.

    Bob Menendez is still a senator, he's still voting on issues that affect us, and he has not been impeached,

    He can be impeached if he is convicted or the people can vote for someone else at election time. The people voted this man into office, that is why he is there.

    and his colleagues act like it's no big deal.

    No, his colleagues asked him to leave and he has so far refused. He could be forced out (impeached) if convicted.

    Similar to Matt Gaetz, George Santos and so many others. Once the people have elected someone it is hard to remove them without proof of wrong doing.

    The Police Choice act was drafted by a Binghamton resident, John Solak - not a democratic politician. The intention was to "outsource" policing duties to the NY state police and Broome county sherriff's office.

    Nate Hotchkiss, a democratic councilman, said there would not be a vote.

    Truth notwithstanding, you make a pretty good point.

    The reality is that communities often look at consolidating services when it makes sense, especially with smaller communities. Binghamton is a town of 47,000 people.

    It was allegedly "proposed by a resident" but I know that's a lie because the things that residents propose never see the light of day.

    But because some "unconcerned resident" voiced their opinion, the Democrat city council is considering holding a referendum vote on the matter.

    I'm a resident. I told them to tighten security at the schools. But we didn't see that on the news, and there will be no referendum for my suggestion.

    You are right, I don't like Trump. I'm not a Biden supporter either but

    The border deaths are up 900% since Biden took office. Border rapes are through the roof also. If I had a dollar for every murder and every rape that Biden is responsible for, I'd be experiencing economic growth.

    Biden is not responsible for these deaths or rapes.

    You are right. Biden is not legally responsible for these deaths or rapes. He's responsible for them in a moral way, which is not prosecutable in the flesh, but he'll pay for it with his soul instead.

    Imagine if Trump were to make an executive order that said "Tesla is not allowed to make robots that can rape people," and then Biden comes along and erases that order, and orders that Tesla can make as many rape robots as they want. Well, it's not Biden's fault, because he's just doing what's best for the robots' sexual well-being, and he's not forcing the robots to rape.

    It predates 2020.

    It was originally a term coined by "progressives" as a way to say "stay alert" to issues that affect marginalized and/or their own communities. "Conservatives" have used it, in turn, to point out persons who seem "over sensitive" and who seem over-consumed with things like identity politics to the point where they view *everything* in such terms.

    An example would be "The main reason that Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election is sexism," an idea framed in identity politics that was circulated by some "woke" pundits after her election loss. The real main reason is that she campaigned to her supporters only and failed to build support among the independents and undecided voters.

    Trump repeated this same mistake during his 2020 campaign with messages that were targeted towards his existing base.

    Around here, the State Police are often "the law" in rural areas. A town of 47k would usually have their own force, but they may cover the whole county rather than just that city.

    Sounds like something different than the "defund" movements.

    Yeah, but claiming otherwise will help convince some gullible rubes of
    their talking points.

    We're currently looking at consolidating 3 smaller communities fire departments for the same economies of scale. I don't see anyone calling
    the proponents pro-fire or screaming about defunding the fire
    department.

    Careful, once your message makes the rounds here, there might be some that claim there is a "defund the fire department" movement afoot.

    There have been some consolidations of fire dep0arments going on here because the volunteer departments can no longer find volunteers. Being a volunteer firefighter apparently does not appeal as much to the current generations as it used to. As a result, the smaller volunteer departments are either consolidating into one, or the areas they covered are being turned over to nearby professional departments -- who may or may not have the personnel resources to be stretched to those areas.

    Define "Woke".

    Mentally ill. Unable to comprehend Reality. Stadfastly believing in falsehoods because they want them to be true.

    Sounds like our former president.

    Woke was a term that progressives and those on the left used to use to define themselves but has also become a term used by the center and conservatives to define those (still on the left) who try to define everything in terms of progressive ideas, such as identity politics.

    An example I gave to Aaron was the expressed opinion by some left pundits that "Hillary lost the 2016 election because she is a woman," an opinion based in identity politics, when the reality is that she spent too much time campaigning and messaging to the areas she was likely to win and not spending enough effort to reach those that were undecided/independent.

    As the former president was never a progressive or leftist, the term "woke" wouldn't apply, although I am sure there are other terms that would cover mental illness, loss of touch with reality, and believing falsehoods that would apply. I have been using Ultra-MAGA, or UMAGA, but there could be other, better terms.

    Consolidating the police departments would be a whole different story. That's something that I would support. If the referendum vote becomes reality, they need to make it very clear to voters at what is meant by it. I've been unprepared to vote on referendum issues in the past.

    2024 is the year that leftists need to wake up. It's misleading to suggest anything else.

    No, I already knew that. But spread the word! There are a lot of people falling for the media's tricks and they need to be told.

    That is true, they do need to make it clear. Sometimes, when it is not clear, that is on the folks who support it for not getting any message out. Other times, it is because an opposing group puts out a message that may not be rooted in reality.

    Hopefully, it is a case of the former and they get their act together before/if there is a vote.

    I would go as far as to say it is a year that everyone needs to be sure they are awake and paying attention.
