Hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman along with his wealthy associates are seeking to save New York City from Zohran Mamdani turning NYC into a
a Marxist hell-hole. They are pledging their own funds to any mayoral candidate who can defeat him.

I am seeing some criticism of him because he is a capitalist.
Let me teach you about another financier who was a member of the Sons of Liberty and was a Founding Father who raised funds by brokering loans as well as advancing his personal funds to the Continental Congress.

Sadly, Haym Salomon lost everything and died penniless but knew that his dream of America had become fulfilled.

Marjorie Taylor Greene knew Iran attempted to assassinate President Trump twice. In truth, she showed she does not support or care about him or his MAGA American First agenda which includes peace through strength.

Further, we were protecting American interests against a terrorist regime that says, "Death to America" and that "America is the Big Devil". Since 1979, they or their proxies have taken Americans hostage and killed and

injured many more both service people and civilians around the world. A summary is below.

Now you might ask why I am writing this. First, I am using the modern definition of who is a Jew, so I use the term Jew, not Israelite as some might demand.

Second, I am writing this in response to some who have reminded me in the past that there is a principle of once a Jew, always a Jew, when I have suggested that we stop recognizing some Jews as such.

Korach was a Jew, but what happened to him and why? Yes, we remember the film, Charlton Heston getting angry and throwing the stone tablets down into the Valley and Korach and his allies dying.

I have a hard time understanding the level of stupidity, the fact of legal knowledge, and the total lack of any memory of what came before —

when it comes to those Congressmen and Senators calling for Impeachment of President Trump for doing the same thing that was OK when Obama, Bush, and Clinton did even more of the same.

In the USA this morning, the news was of a woman arrested.
1)
She is a teacher who had sex with her 14 year old male student. In the USA, that is a crime, and one can expect she will be fined and have some prison time.
In France, a teacher had sex with her 14 year old male student, too.

But in France, the student became President of the Republic, and the teacher became his wife.
