~ “I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts.” Ronald Reagan.
New York State’s greasy Governor Andrew Cuomo who allows his staff to delete emails at will, stated that “extreme Conservatives have no place in New York” and who by executive order forcibly removes the homeless off the streets during the winter, not that he cares but because he’s the governor, a Progressive who believes that the homeless have no rights is trying to stick President Trump with the responsibility, blame and tab for New York City’s disastrous Penn Station.
Andrew Cuomo, New York’s tax and spend governor, has a very serious train problem in New York City’s Penn Station, and he is trying to transfer the blame and the expense to the federal government.
In addition to setting a trap for President Trump, it’s a demand for money from the federal taxpayer for a problem he created.
Cuomo has declared the Penn Station repairs a “state of emergency” in an attempt to get Donald Trump to send him funds after he neglected the problem. No one declares a self-induced train station problem a “state of emergency”.
If Trump falls for it, he’s a fool and he’ll regret it.
It’s the old monkey off my back and on to your back trick.
Penn Station is a “dump” in “deplorable” conditions, Cuomo announced. He wants Trump to intervene[…]
All about 2020, I suggest Cuomo pull back the millions, likely billions he’s doling out to illegal aliens for healthcare, rent, education, etc. Oh yes and the funds used to hide illegals from the federal government and their legal fees.
Then there is the matter of $163 million for free in-state college tuition for New Yorkers. Are you kidding me? There is plenty of money for Cuomo to clean up his infrastructure mess. Penn Station is his own doing.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! Fascist Andrew Cuomo has his sights set on the 2020 presidential election and so he is courting the Muslim vote by selling New York State down river.
Spread this around. I couldn’t believe it when I read it so I checked it myself and you can too on this link. The madmen in the New York Senate declared yesterday as Hijab Day.
LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION memorializing Governor Andrew M. Cuomo to proclaim February 1, 2017, as Hijab Day in the State of New York.
This is one of the reasons immigrants don’t adapt to a Western culture. The liberals/leftists don’t want them to, they want us to adapt to them.
No matter what anyone tells you, the hijab is foreign, it’s not American. It’s fine if immigrants want to wear them and call it religious, but dedicating a day to something that represents the diminishment of women is not acceptable to real feminists.
It’s not Islamaphobia to forego promoting the wearing of the hijab. Did anyone demand we wear or honor Saris when East Indians came to the U.S.? This is to promote the lie that Islamophobia is growing under Trump.
What’s wrong with the hijab for American women
The hijab shows modesty according to Arabs in America. They say women choose to wear it to show modesty or their devotion to God and still others wear it to show their Muslim identity. Whether they choose to or not is an open question.
Female hair is considered awra (an intimate part of the body that must be covered by clothing) in much of Islam. There is no such requirement for men.
The Quran mandates hijab (literally “cover”) for both men and women though men have largely abandoned the practice[…]
‘Ads Featuring Nazi Imagery Pulled From New York City Subway,’ the bland headline from the Associated Press announced. The first line of the story was similarly ho-hum and passive:
An ad campaign that featured Nazi imagery has been pulled from the New York City subway system.
The ad campaign is for Amazon’s new show “The Man In The High Castle,” which is based on Philip K. Dick’s alternate history of an early 1960s United States that lost World War II….
The slow-paced but engrossing show features Rufus Sewell as a ruthless SS Obergruppenführer who cracks down on the resistance movement with shocking efficiency and brutality. There is no freedom in the dystopian land that shows how precious freedoms of speech, religion, and assembly truly are […]
While Commie mayor, Bill de Blasio complained that the ads were reprehensible, it is Governor Andrew Cuomo who ordered the ads removed (see image below).
It wouldn’t surprise me if Cuomo was more concerned with the possibility of these ads peeking the interests of passengers and while viewing “The Man in the High Castle,” suddenly recognize the traits of the characters in our bureaucrats and/or awaken to the totalitarian state that our nation is fast becoming.
Can’t have New Yorkers catching on to the fundamental transformation going on around them or waking them out of their slumber.
Andrew Cuomo signed an executive order this weekend ordering that the homeless be removed from the streets of New York State by any means and forced into homeless shelters once outside temperatures hit 32 degrees or below and during inclement weather.
Local police and representatives of social service agencies (relabeled outreach officers) are to take to the streets in search of the homeless, have a fireside chat during which the individual(s) will be ordered to head to a shelter, i.e., off the streets aka out of public view.
Of course, should the individual refuse, he or she would then be forcibly removed to one of the many dangerous and ill reputable homeless shelters in New York State, which has been ordered to maintain extended hours allowing the homeless access.
The ideological rationale for Cuomo’s executive order is to ensure “that homeless individuals are directed to shelter during inclement winter weather which can cause hypothermia, serious injury and death.” Translation: For the safety and greater good of the individual.
Except that, the executive order does not protect the homeless nor is it for their greater good and most certainly not because Cuomo or any other government official has the right to usurp the will of an individual. They do not.
It is no secret that homeless shelters are a hellhole and often life threatening, one of the primary reasons is that so many choose living on the streets, in the subways and back allies over the shelters.
Adding to that, many of the people who run and work in the shelters are corrupt, equally dangerous, see the homeless as someone to take advantage of, and abused because after all, if they don’t like the service (or living conditions), they can always remove themselves from the environment. Yet with those options, correction lack thereof, many have opted to leave the shelters.
Rather than deal with the insanity and threats that send people fleeing from shelters or rolling back legislation and social engineering policies that are contributory to the escalated rents, cost of living, homelessness, etc. Cuomo diminishing the options, further infringes upon the liberties of the homeless by ordaining that the State of New York can “take appropriate steps, including involuntary placement, to protect individuals from harming themselves or others.”
EMERGENCY DECLARATION REGARDING HOMELESSNESS DURING INCLEMENT WINTER WEATHER…I direct all local social service districts, police agencies including the New York State Police, and state agencies to take all necessary steps to identifyindividuals reasonably believed to be homeless and unwilling or unable to find the shelter necessary for safety and health in inclement winter weather, and move such individuals to the appropriate sheltered facilities; FURTHER, I direct all local social service districts to take all necessary steps to extend shelter hours, to allow individuals who are homeless to remain indoors, to instruct homeless service outreach workers to work with other relevant personnel and to work with local police in relation to the involuntarilytransport of at-risk individuals who refuse to go inside and who appear to be at-risk for cold related injuries to appropriate facilities for assessment consistent with the provisions of section 9.41 of the Mental Hygiene Law, and to work in coordination with the State Police and all police agencies to ensure that homeless individuals receive assistance as needed to protect the public health and safety and at all times consistent with the State’s Constitution and existing statutes…
Alleging that case law is on his side, Cuomo phoned in to 1010WINS Saturday insisting that his decision to force the homeless aka “these people” against their will into homeless shelters is for the good of the collective, correction individual [my emphasis], “What we’re saying is these are people who are placing themselves in danger, and if you are placing yourself in danger, we believe as a society you should be given help because you can hurt yourself…”
Designating that the homeless be involuntarily remanded to a homeless shelter implies that the homeless are mentally unstable and thereby incapable of making decisions for themselves but fear not because the Marxist ideologues running the government are here to help.
Well sort of anyway. While Cuomo’s executive order states that “homelessness is an issue that impacts citizens in all regions of the State, from large cities to small towns and rural communities; and WHEREAS, certain parts of the State are facing a crisis of homelessness unprecedented in recent history;” it is another slap in the face directed at NYC’s Communist mayor, Bill de Blasio under whose tenure homelessness in New York City has returned to 1980’s level.
Commie de Blasio who early last summer blamed NYC’s homeless problem on Cuomo while at the same time stating that, “Homelessness is not going up, thank God,” and whose deputy mayor of health and human services resigned shortly thereafter objects to the executive order but not for the reasons that one would expect.
According to Karen Hinlon, de Blasio’s press secretary,
“We support the intent of the Executive Order, but to forcibly remove all homeless individuals in freezing weather, as the Governor has ordered, will require him to pass state law…
This Executive Order adds no legal or financial resources to New York City’s programs to assist the homeless, and merely requires all New York State localities follow many of the same requirements as New York City to shelter families and individuals in need in freezing temperatures…”
[Note: While homelessness and quality of life in New York City was returning to the cesspool it became during the Dinkins era, Commie Bill took a trip to Italy that included a $ 4,519.66 overnight flight to Rome where he sought company with the Pope.
Instead of addressing the City’s problems, de Blasio gallivants from state to state, whining about how New Yorkers hate him.]
Alphonso David, Cuomo’s legal counsel insists that Cuomo’s executive order “’does not mandate involuntary commitment for competent individuals’ and requires cities to conduct ‘an individualized assessment pursuant’ to state mental hygiene law ‘for those who refuse shelter.’”
Translation: If it is 32 degrees out with a wind chill of 15 and an individual still refuses to enter into a homeless shelter, it cannot possibly be that the individual fears for his or her safety, it is that the individual is mentally unstable.
Commie mayor’s treatment of the homeless in NYC is the confiscation and destruction of what little property the homeless sleeping on NYC streets has in their possession including documentation, which is vital to getting anything done in the United States.
Does Andrew Cuomo who has been aggressively fundraising for his 2018 re-election campaign since early 2015 have the right to force homeless adults off the streets against their will?
What about de Blasio, up for re-election in 2017 whose actions appears to be also infringing upon the liberties of while disrespecting the homeless by erasing their existence?
Are both attempting to push for the illusion of “out of sight — out of mind — crisis handled and contained?”
Governor Andrew Cuomo has a plan to solve the problem of street homelessness in New York City; he wants to put them in Creedmoor, a massive institution for the mentally ill in eastern Queens. During its mid-century heyday, Creedmoor housed 7,000 people in dozens of buildings, many of which are now sitting empty. Cuomo’s proposal was seconded by Queens state senator Leroy Comrie, who said that “the homeless individuals [at Creedmoor] would have an excellent chance of being successful with a complement of services” […]
“the homeless individuals [at Creedmoor] would have an excellent chance of being successful with a complement of services” — Yeah sure. If Leroy Comrie is so sure that Creedmoor is an excellent opportunity for the homeless, I suggest he try it out for a month first without cameras, security and buffer zones to ensure the senator a comfortable and peaceful stay.
Andrew Cuomo is simply recycling another failed Progressive policies of decades ago where the homeless, mentally ill among others were thrown into these institutions drugged, abused, committed abuses, etc.
There are already too many instances in New York City today where a poor person with no family takes ill, possibly undergoing surgery which means which means a lengthy stay and during that individual’s stay, he loses his apartment.
Once that occurs (often), the hospital tells the individual that he cannot be released because said individual does not have a place to live.
$$$$$
I know for a fact that King County Hospital in Brooklyn, New York will not release anyone that cannot provide a forwarding address. Proudly boasting of their men’s ward or housing, male patients become prisonerslive-ins adult wards of the state, sometimes for years and often until their death, whichever comes first.
Creedmoor Psychiatric Center Queens Village NYC
I suspect that Creedmoor with its past will be much worse.
No one remembers exactly when it began. But the fear, the beatings, the brutality in a special ward of the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center in Queens did not end until after a mentally ill patient had died while bound in a cloth straitjacket, his throat crushed.
The workers in the so-called secure unit found themselves locked day after day in a hospital ward that came to resemble a penitentiary – but one without bars to separate the staff from men they called inmates.
Nurses and orderlies say they were abandoned by their superiors and forced to make decisions that, under the law, could be made only by doctors. Regulations about medication were ignored, workers say, as were their complaints about dangerous understaffing in a ward that housed the most violent, most severely ill patients at Creedmoor, a huge state facility in Queens Village.
Last month, after several reports of widespread brutality against patients, the secure unit was shut down. The remaining patients have been transferred to other wards while city, state and Federal investigators try to figure out what went wrong there, and why. The investigations began shortly after the death of the 39-year-old patient last March.
Andrew Cuomo wants everyone’s guns. He has made it almost impossible for a legal gun owner to defend himself or herself thanks to the New York SAFE Act. He now wants the same for everyone in the country and has called on Democrats in Congress to shut down the government until national gun laws are passed.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo gave a political speech as a eulogy at the service for his murdered aide Saturday. He compared his aide to Jesus Christ.
‘I never asked Pope Francis why Carey Gabay was taken, but then again over the past two days I heard the Pope repeatedly speak about a young man who grew up in poverty and raised himself up and lived a life of love and selflessness,’ Cuomo said. ‘A life too that was ended early….’
Not only is it ironic, it is unfathomable that Andrew Cuomo would invoke the Pope, politics and gun legislation into one neat at Carey Gabay’s funeral.
Solely about politics and going on record (again), Gabay’s family or a representative should have shut the dog and pony show down long before Cuomo began his grandstand on the podium.
Allowing Marxist opportunists like Andrew Cuomo who is a horrible Catholic, cares nothing for the life of the unborn and is overwhelmingly silent on Black on Black crimes and homicide within the Black community itself to hijack their moments of grief and send off of a loved one is both a habit and problem with too many Blacks in America.
It is also the perfect example of the Progressive slave master taking ownership. (No disrespect to the Gabay family. Just calling it by its name.)
The truth is that Gabay was not the first Black to die because of Black on Black crime on the streets of New York during j’ouvert, goombay or whatever parade organizers have chosen to call it throughout the decades nor will Gabay will be the last.
Gabay just happened to die at the hands of a “bad guy” with a gun. Something that no amount of gun control will stop. The truth is with crime in the Black community, it could have been a machete, steel pipe, motor vehicle, etc.
However, it does pay to mention that diminishing the right to bear arms only exacerbates the problem and presents victims but like Black on Black violence and homicide, that is not a discussion Andrew Cuomo is willing to have.
Every week throughout New York State, Black bodies are hitting the pavement due to a never-ending Black on Black crime wave and just as Cuomo is silent about the murder of innocent babies in the womb, he is silent about the crime and homicide wave across the State.
Performance over with Cuomo once again on record for uttering the ridiculous having returned to his safe haven, Saturday’s circus is meaningless.
As for Carey Gabay and the family he has left behind, well the door is now open. Meet Andrew Cuomo’s latest props.
