If You Can’t Make It to NYC to See the Ball Drop…

…maybe it’s just as well:

Daniel Penny won’t always be there when you need him.

A few more years of moonbat rule and you couldn’t get Snake Plissken to visit.

A New York Fad That Will Not Catch On in Florida

The fad of punching random women in the face must have run its course. New York City has moved on to something new. Just 5 days after illegal immigrant Sebastin Zapeta killed a woman by setting her on fire on a subway train, we read this:

A homeless man was injured after he reportedly caught on fire inside Manhattan’s Penn Station on Friday night and investigators are probing the cause of the blaze, authorities and sources said.

He is fortunately in stable condition.

The man told police he believes somebody set him ablaze, claiming he was sleeping and woke up on fire, law enforcement sources said.

Although it is unclear what actually happened, readers are advised to avoid NYC subways and NYC in general until civilization has been restored.

Such fads won’t follow those escaping New York for Florida. Here’s why:

Criminals learn to be less bold when their potential victims can fight back.

Government can’t get much bigger than it is in Democrat-dominated New York. Yet New Yorkers cannot expect even a minimal level of safety. From this, we can conclude that Big Government does not make us safe.

New York Launches Global Warming Looting Spree

Truth will out. Despite the influence purchased by government grants, scientists acknowledge that CO2 emissions are not harmful; on the contrary, they are beneficial. Yet even as the global warming hoax unravels, insatiably greedy Democrats exploit it as a pretext to loot:

New York state will fine fossil fuel companies a total of $75 billion over the next 25 years to pay for damage caused to the climate under a bill Governor Kathy Hochul signed into law on Thursday.

Fossil fuels companies make our comfortable lives possible. Without them, we would be unable to sustain our current population; many of us would starve. In contrast, Democrats like Hochul do nothing but confiscate our money and make our lives worse. Yet the latter have the whip hand.

If this flies, it will spread:

“New York has fired a shot that will be heard round the world: The companies most responsible for the climate crisis will be held accountable,” New York Senator Liz Krueger, a Democrat who co-sponsored the bill, said in a statement.

In contrast to fair laws, this one will be imposed retroactively:

Fossil fuel companies will be fined based on the amount of greenhouse gases they released into the atmosphere between 2000 and 2018…

Vermont has already passed a similar law.

All human activity produces CO2, which according to liberal ideology is infinitely harmful because it is a threat to life on earth. So Democrats may as well cut to the chase and confiscate everything from everyone. The name for that is Marxism, which is what climate ideology has been about from the beginning.

More Mayhem on NYC Subway

Let’s take another ride on the subway in the sanctuary city New York:

A migrant from Guatemala was arrested in connection to the heinous death of a woman who was lit on fire and burned to death on a subway train in Brooklyn, New York, on Sunday.

Sebastin Zapeta entered the country illegally. He had been arrested previously but was still running loose in our country.

The NYPD said the killing happened at the Stillwell Avenue Subway station in Coney Island at about 7:30 a.m.

Lighter fluid was used to turn the sleeping woman into a torch. This kind of behavior prevails as NYC disintegrates under liberal rule and potential heroes are terrorized by authorities into minding their own business. The Alvin Bragg types in charge want a world of Sebastin Zapetas, not a world of Daniel Pennys.

Now the good news. Leftist Governor Kathy Hochul says the subways are safe:

At 3:40pm Sunday, hours after the story broke, the New York Governor Hochul bizarrely posted photos of herself smiling with straphangers as she praised the safety of the subway lines.

‘In March, I took action to make our subways safer for the millions of people who take the trains each day,’ she said.

Imagine how scary they would be if Hochul hadn’t taken action.

Meanwhile:

A TikTok executive who got slashed in the face by a stranger on a New York City subway is suing the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) for what he describes as “systemic negligence.” The attack, which left him with severe physical and psychological scars, occurred on May 10, 2023, while he was commuting on a southbound C train in Brooklyn.

Gideon Moncrieffe had attempted to intervene in an altercation between a maniac and a drunk. You meet all sorts under the streets of New York. At least Bragg didn’t throw him in jail.

The problem with using lawsuits to compel Democrats to maintain a limited level of public safety is that they even if they lose, they don’t have to pay; taxpayers do.

Transgender Claus

Black Santa is culturally incongruous but not transgressive enough for true moonbats. Add sacrilege to the political correctness by replacing Saint Nick with Transgender Claus:

Kathy Hochul to Fight Inflation by Passing Out Money

Among the strong messages voters sent in the November election is that people are sick of Democrats devaluing our earnings and savings by driving up inflation with grossly irresponsible spending. New York Governor Kathy Hochul did not get the memo:

Hochul is proposing giving New Yorkers a one-time payment to help deal with inflation.

More government spending to help with the inflation caused by government spending makes as much sense as calling an inflationary Green New Deal spendfest the “Inflation Reduction Act.”

Families making as much as $300,000 will get $500 while individuals earning $150,000 or less will receive $300, Hochul said.

Sounds fair.

The handouts will be paid for through sales taxes. As Hochul’s fellow Democrat Rep. Ritchie Torres notes,

“New York has a Governor who gives with one hand while taking with the other.”

Good thing the Empire State is not an independent country that can print its own money. The currency would be worth the same as Zimbabwe’s.

Daniel Penny vs. Derek Chauvin

The main difference between what they did to Derek Chauvin and what they tried to do to Daniel Penny is that by now, not even the most pathetically naive would let the media dupe them into seeing BLM types as the good guys (try as MSNBC might).

Via Washington Free Beacon:

A prominent Black Lives Matter activist appeared to threaten Daniel Penny and called for violence after Penny was acquitted of criminally negligent homicide in the death of a deranged homeless man on the New York City subway last year.

Hawk Newsome, who cofounded Black Lives Matter Greater New York and now leads a new activist group called Black Opportunities, shouted “It’s a small world” in the court shortly after the jury acquitted Penny, according to reporters in attendance. At a press conference after the court was dismissed, Newsome said, “We need some black vigilantes. People wanna jump up and choke us and kill us for being loud? How about we do the same?”

That is what a prosecutor might call an explicit call for violence — though not a moonbat prosecutor like Dafna Yoran.

Just a few years ago, white liberal fools shoveled money at vermin like this by the $millions:

Whether black supremacists get traction this time around remains to be seen.

Newsome was an organizer behind protests outside the court each day during the Penny trial. Activists shouted “Murderer, Murderer” and waved signs that said “Convict Daniel Penny.”

Penny’s attorneys suggested the behavior was a form of jury intimidation in court on Monday and asked prosecutors to do more for jurors not to hear their chants. Shortly after that request was denied, Penny was found not guilty on Monday.

Kudos to the jury for showing some guts. They don’t make them like that in Minneapolis. Maybe it is not too late for New York to throw off moonbat rule.

Civilization will fight back this time.

Daniel Penny Prosecutor Is Demented Moonbat

Daniel Penny is being tried for manslaughter because a violent psychopath died while he was restraining him so that he could not harm other NYC subway passengers. As with Derek Chauvin, his actual crime is his skin color. Can Penny get a fair trial in the jurisdiction that found Donald Trump guilty on 34 felony counts of nothing in particular? Maybe — but probably not if it is up to prosecutor Dafna Yoran:

Assistant Manhattan District Attorney Dafna Yoran, who urged jurors at Daniel Penny’s subway chokehold trial to convict him of manslaughter on Tuesday, once sought reduced punishment for a Manhattan mugger who killed an 87-year-old over $300 in 2019 under the concept of “restorative justice.”

Matthew Lee, 57, snuck up on the victim, a former Lehman College professor named Dr. Young Kun Kim, from behind at a Citibank ATM on Broadway on May 13, 2018, video shows.

Lee killed Kim with a punch to the head. Presumably because Lee is black and Kim was Asian, making the former the victim according to leftist ideology, the prosecutor’s heart went out to Lee.

Lee was charged with manslaughter instead of felony murder, reducing his potential sentence from 25 years to life to 10 years.

The same charge as with Penny. Under moonbats like Yoran, murdering an old man in the course of robbing him can be the legal equivalent of defending innocent bystanders from a threatening maniac.

Lee is eligible for parole in 2026. Penny could get 15 years if Yoran is successful.

Watch in horror that kooks like this are running the justice system in our largest city as Yoran explains her(?) reasoning:

Red-Pilled Eric Adams

You don’t need to be a weatherman to tell which way the wind is blowing. You can be the Mayor of New York City.

Eric Adams has established himself as a moonbat, calling for the border to remain open and for illegal aliens to be quartered in people’s homes, blaming migrant violence on a lack of extracurricular activities, bestowing oppression privilege upon the obese even while monitoring meat consumption, modeling anti-2A moonbat fashion, playing the race card while calling white people “crackers,” et cetera.

Since last month’s election, he has been making sense. Watch in amazement as he praises DOGE and admits that Big Government wastes our money:

It gets better. The guy who proclaimed NYC would continue to be a sanctuary city (video) says he will work with Trump and Tom Homan on deportations and dares other Democrats to cancel him:

Adams also effectively acknowledges that the prosecution of the hero Daniel Penny is an outrage:

“Now, we’re on the subway where we’re hearing someone talking about hurting people, killing people. You have someone on that subway who was responding, doing what we should have done as a city in a state of having a mental health facility.”

The ham-fisted Biden Regime may have helped shift his perspective by indicting him — according to Adams, for criticizing its disastrous border policy.

In contrast, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is not adapting to the turning tide. True believers in moonbattery are stuck on stupid — and will pay the price in terms of support:

Residents of Chicago are blasting Mayor Brandon Johnson over the city spending more than half a billion dollars on sheltering migrants, with one telling the Democrat to his face during a City Council meeting that he’s the “worst mayor in America.”

If America continues to turn away from the progressive precipice, leftist fever swamps will thicken into tar pits. Democrats will face a choice between wading out of them and perishing like dinosaurs.
