But my ancestors have lived in Illinois since 1854 and I have lived in DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, and my school district since 1978 and in my precinct since 1984.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: I work here — and for a great New York City publication. Dispatches on subway safety and city life don’t work as well from, say, a couch in West Virginia. (AI told me they have the cheapest housing prices.) The Big Apple is my home. I spent much of my childhood here and have lived in Manhattan for more than two decades. Most of my immediate and extended family are here. Every Sunday we gather in my aunt’s downtown apartment for family dinner. I don’t fly home for Thanksgiving or Christmas. I take the F train to my cousin’s house in Brooklyn. My family has been here for generations. Heck, my paternal grandmother was even stabbed here in 1961. (She survived, thankfully, and moved to a safer neighborhood in The Bronx. But you get the point: This isn’t a causal relationship.) Many tourists might see the city as merely a backdrop to film social media content or catch a Broadway show. But it’s also a place to maintain roots and raise families. And, yes, struggle to survive. I truly worry that, under Mamdani, our city — which is still emerging from its pandemic stupor — will be pulled back into an abyss of chaos and crime. I fret that businesses which no longer need to be here to remain competitive will leave and take loads of tax dollars — and jobs — with them. I also pray that Albany will spoil Mamdani’s plans for grabbing other people’s money. If all the sensible people flee, we are just handing over the keys to Mamdani — the pretty face of an ugly movement. He is a Trojan horse for the Democratic Socialists of America and their pernicious anti-Western agenda. His very dark victory speech, in which he lectured us on Islamophobia and boasted about big government, was chilling. Data shows loads of young, educated transplants voted for Mamdani — because of his pie-in-the-sky promises to freeze rents and deliver them all the trappings of success for a discounted price. If you believe that, I have a bridge to sell. . .But back to New York City: This place has taken beatings from fiscal mismanagement, rampant crime, disorder, feckless politicians, pandemics and Islamic terrorists. Now we have another foe: a smiling socialist. We must proceed boldly, with common sense and grit. And not cede this great city out of fear.)

— Stopping the Bleeding: Time for a Moratorium on Immigration?
https://thenewamerican.com/us/immigration/stopping-the-bleeding-time-for-a-moratorium-on-immigration/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Morris, an America-first candidate running for the Senate in Kentucky, begins by mentioning Joe Biden’s open-border policy. This policy was calculated and has resulted perhaps 20 million illegals (maybe more) squatting in the United States today. Morris points out, too, that these people are unvetted — unknown quantities. Despite this, he writes, now: “Americans are forced to compete even more with illegal immigrants for jobs and housing, to have their children share our classrooms, to wait longer at the hospital, and to even have their lawfully earned, government-funded benefits depleted because of them.” Why is this happening? Because, Morris states, our politicians have ignored the problem or, worse still, he suspects, are “insidiously” cheering it on. Actually, he doesn’t have to wonder.)

No one has ever had any sympathy for me for that loss of income for the following reasons. They believe that I was grossly overpaid and that my employee benefits were far too generous. They believe that my pension and my retirement benefits are far too generous. They despise/hate federal employees and federal retirees. They disapprove of/despise/hate my demographics, my conservatism, my fighting patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, my suing people who they pander to, and/or my avoiding the Vietnam War draft.

https://www.hindustantimes.com/trending/us/zohran-mamdanis-educational-background-where-did-nyc-mayor-elect-go-to-college-101762328133696.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As per the New York Assembly website, Mamdani attended the Bronx High School of Science. He graduated from Bowdoin College with a Bachelor’s degree in African Studies. Interestingly, both his parents are Harvard graduates. CNN reported that Mamdani was politically active in his college years. While at Bowdoin College, he founded the institution’s chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine. He also joined Change Corps, which was a year-long training program for becoming a community organizer. However, he did not finish his term, quitting after six months. The reason for this move was his creation of a union within this organization, which, he thought, would have led to his being fired. Mamdani became a naturalized citizen in 2018, paving the way for his active involvement in politics. This has now culminated in him becoming New York’s first Muslim mayor, and one of the youngest to take that office.)
