Mamdani Picks Lesbian With Zero Fire Experience to Head NYFD

The incoming Mamdani regime will have standards regarding personnel. These will be based on two factors: leftist viewpoint and DEI. The result is history in the making — unfortunately not in a good way.

BizPac Review reports on New York City’s next fire chief:

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has chosen a new fire commissioner who has zero experience fighting fires but is a proud lesbian and will be the department’s first openly gay chief.

“Openly gay” is putting it mildly:

Lillian Bonsignore used to work in Emergency Medical Services. She has never served as a firefighter.

To see how this will turn out, refer to her counterpart in Los Angeles, the noisily lesbian Kristin Crowley, who was paid $439,772 per year to promote DEI as chief of the LAPD. The Palisades Fire cast such bright light on her incompetence that she actually managed to get fired by a communist despite being a lesbian girl boss.

The visionary Elon Musk makes an easy prediction:

“People will die because of this. Proven experience matters when lives are at stake.”

For historical context, after Mamdani’s fellow Muslims hit the World Trade Center in 2001, the entire world admired the heroism displayed by the same FDNY that Mamdani will now destroy in the name of moonbattery.

Somali Child-Free Childcare Center

Moonbats like Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan gush obsequiously over how Somalis enrich Minnesota. One example of how they have done this is by introducing the concept of child-free childcare centers.

From the New York Post:

A YouTuber found no children inside a Minnesota daycare that has received $4 million in state funding — and couldn’t even spell “learning” correctly on its own front door.

The Somalis in charge cleverly saved on lettering by spelling it “learing.”

The apparent revelation comes amid the exploding welfare scandal involving the state’s Somali community, which the feds have said could top $9 million.

In a state run by moonbats like Tim Walz, Keith Ellison, and Flanagan, massive graft is so easy, Somalis can do it. In a possibly related story, Ilhan Omar’s net worth just rose by 3,500% in 1 year.

Hopefully Nick Shirley’s ears are not still ringing from the shrill shrieks of a moonbat who apparently mistook him for immigration enforcement:

The Quality Learing [sic] Center did have children at one time:

The Quality Learning Center has collected a staggering 95 violations from the state human services agency between 2019 and 2023, according to St. Paul’s ABC affiliate.

The violations include not having any records for more than a dozen listed children, and failure to keep hazardous items away from kids.

Maybe it is for the best if parents no longer send their kids there. But we can assume taxpayers still send their money.

Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan Wears Hijab While Pandering to Somalis

Michelle Wu is not the only Democrat pol who panders obsequiously to the moochers and grifters liberals have imported from Somalia to displace the native population. Minnesota Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan even does it while submissively wearing Islamic garb.

The New York Post reports:

“I am incredibly clear that the Somali community is part of the fabric of the state of Minnesota,” Flanagan said at Karmel Mall in Minneapolis alongside local officials in a video released by Somali TV of Minnesota on Thursday.

We have seen Somali-pandering at Karmel Mall before. The native population might be wise to avoid the place.

According to Flanagan, Somalis pour into our country only to be victimized:

“I am here shopping today and just encourage other folks to show up, support our Somali businesses, support our immigrant neighbors, and I know that things are scary right now,” added Flanagan, a Catholic, while wearing the Islamic head covering.

By scary, she means scary for the Somali invaders. Racists might oppress them by complaining about their high crime rate, disinclination to assimilate, and conspicuous predilection for welfare parasitism. Those in the country illegally might even be sent home by ICE.

Watch and cringe:

Regarding her friend Nimco Ahmed, she is Minnesota State Director of the ultraleft Democratic Farmer Labor Party.

Ahmed has been quoted in Time magazine and Minnesota Public Radio articles as a “friend” and acquaintance of Somali men who returned to their native country in the 2010s to join al-Shabaab — a terror group that later received millions of the state’s welfare dollars due to the fraud scheme.

Nimco’s fellow Somali colonists in Minnesota may have looted over $9 BILLION from taxpayers through entitlement fraud. A significant percentage of the stolen money likely went to fund Islamic terrorism.

Speaking of terrorism, Flanagan has spoken publicly wearing a t-shirt that appears to call for violence against those who fail to affirm transsexualism. Violence by transsexuals has reached epidemic proportions.

Peggy Flanagan is now running for US Senate. If Mark Kelly and Chris Van Hollen can be senators, why not Peggy Flanagan?

Insane Ballot Measure to Drive Landlords Out of Tacoma

Leftists have a special hatred for landlords, who need to be paid to provide other people with housing. When communists took over China, many of them were publicly humiliated, beaten, imprisoned, or executed. In Tacoma, Washington, they are regulated into oblivion.

The Wall Street Journal reports on a 2023 ballot measure that…

…prohibited “cold weather” evictions between Nov. 1 and April 1, and during the school year if the renting family included a student or “educator.”

The effects were as anyone would expect.

“Since the moratorium has taken effect, people are going a year or more without paying rent,” April Black, executive director of the Tacoma Housing Authority, told the local press this month. Some 38% of the public housing authority’s tenants have fallen behind on the rent, up from 15% before the ballot measure, the Seattle Times reports.

Good thing taxpayers are there to pick up the tab for affordable housing deadbeats:

The housing authority has had to tap more than $400,000 in reserves to cover losses…

Some housing providers get carveouts. Others don’t have a seat at the table.

“[I]f the highly subsidized housing groups cannot make their business work in this type of environment, how are small rental housing providers who own just a couple of units supposed to make this work?” asks Corey Hjalseth of the Rental Housing Association of Washington, an industry group.

There are not supposed to make it work, any more than ObamaCare was supposed to make health insurance work. The idea is to drive landlords out of business, creating a housing crisis. Then Big Government can step in and be everybody’s landlord.

Jimmy Kimmel Hits Another Low by Denouncing USA to UK

Alleged comedian Jimmy Kimmel might have a sense of humor after all. As for a sense of patriotism, no chance.

From his fellow moonbats at CBS News:

Kimmel took aim at President Trump as he warned Thursday about the rise of fascism in an address to U.K. viewers dubbed “The Alternative Christmas Message.”

“Tyranny is booming over here,” Kimmel lied of his own country to a foreign audience.

[Government-owned Channel 4] began a tradition of airing an alternative Christmas message in 1993, as a counterpart to the British monarch’s annual televised address to the nation. Channel 4 said the message is often a thought-provoking and personal reflection pertinent to the events of the year.

“Thought-provoking” is not a term often ascribed to the obnoxious fool Kimmel. But he is in suitable company. Past presenters of the alternative Christmas message have included another enemy of America, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran.

Kimmel has been a favorite of the lefties who run the media since he got himself momentarily suspended by his own network for telling his viewers the appalling lie that Trump supporters assassinated Charlie Kirk.

His message to the UK from the USA:

“We are a right mess, and we know this is also affecting you, and I just wanted to say sorry.”

Making this comedy, Britain really is descending into tyranny. No informed person could regard it as a free country under moonbat rule.

A Briton was recently arrested in his home country for posing with a gun in Florida. Comedy writer Graham Linehan was similarly arrested in the UK for opinions expressed while on the free soil of the USA. London Chief of Police Mark Rowley has threatened to come after people outside the UK for expressing forbidden thoughts online.

A 74-year-old woman arrested for silently praying outside an abortion abattoir in Scotland is hardly the only one to be punished for this thoughtcrime in Britain; even praying inside your own house can be construed as illegal.

Offending Muslims is also against the law. “Sharia Law Administrator” is an actual title held by UK bureaucrats.

Britain’s tyrannical government is so hostile to the native population that it discourages the ethnically British from becoming police officers, giving preference to “underrepresented groups.” As for those unlucky enough not to be “underrepresented,” the government has threatened to deny them healthcare under socialized medicine.

Small wonder that a British veteran of World War II has been wondering what he fought for.

History buffs might recall that the USA was created by rebelling against British tyranny.

Adding to the laughs, Kimmel publicly gloated when someone was subjected to actual censorship — namely Trump.
