NYC to Blow Over $97,000 per Bum on Homelessness Grift

In liberal jurisdictions where homelessness is exploited as a pretext to confiscate wealth, it takes any number of taxpayers to support a single drug-addled derelict. California is one example; New York City is another.

The New York Post reports:

State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli just revealed that New York City is now spending $81,000 per street homeless person — in a town where average take-home pay is no higher than $40,600.

$81,000 per year per bum? Not enough. The Islamocommie mayor wants to waste more:

City Hall projects it to hit nearly $97,000 in the coming year.

The trajectory has been straight up into the stratosphere:

Overall, this spending has skyrocketed from $102 million in 2018 to $368 million last year, up 320% even as the street-homeless population grew just 26%.

That’s not all:

These figures don’t include about $500 million a year for supportive housing, mental health co-response teams, the NYPD’s homeless-clearing work or other outlays for this population.

Either hobos are sleeping off their fentanyl binges in platinum-plated refrigerator boxes, or most of this money goes to graft.

Not all liberals embrace moonbattery because they are morons; some use it to make easy money that other people worked for.

Why Ireland Needs Saint Patrick Now More Than Ever

Saint Patrick’s Day is a time to celebrate Irish heritage — unless you are one of the moonbats controlling Ireland, in which case it is a day to celebrate the nation’s eradication via mass Third World immigration.

Via Modernity:

Irish President Catherine Connolly marked her first St. Patrick’s Day in office with a message that reframed Ireland’s patron saint as a symbol for open borders and ‘global citizenship’, urging the Irish to embrace migrants amid ongoing surges in arrivals that have sparked nationwide tensions.

Connolly preaches about “shared responsibilities as global citizens.” That is, she calls for the Irish to place the interests of foreigners let in to displace them ahead of their own.

For context, this…

…comes as Ireland ramps up immigration reforms in 2026, including higher salary thresholds for work permits, digitalized processes, and faster citizenship paths for those granted international protection—moves that critics say prioritize foreigners over native Irish struggling with housing shortages and cultural erosion.

The first qualification to be a nation’s leader is to want that nation to continue to exist. Connolly is unqualified for her position.

Saint Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland. If only he would return to do it again.

Brandon Johnson Confirms Chicago Fire Department Recruitment Based on Race

Be careful with fires if you live in Chicago. Given the effect DEI has on everything it touches, the competency of the fire department can be expected to decline. Black Lives Matter Mayor Brandon Johnson confirms that recruitment is based on race:

Begging the obvious question,

The answer is that voters rejected merit by electing Johnson mayor.

Food-Free Lunch in Calgary School to Pander to Islam

In Germany, schoolchildren are told to eat furtively during Ramadan. In moonbattery-addled Canada, the situation is still worse. Calgary Herald reports on a notice to parents announcing that Calgary’s Fairview School would provide food-free lunch spaces in the name of Islam:

For Grade 4 to Grade 6, the cafeteria will be a No Food space for the first half of lunch. For the second half of lunch students will go outside. …

For Grade 7 to Grade 9 the lunchroom will be a No Food space for the entire lunch hour.

Despite a clarification issued by the school, confusion remains as to where and when dhimmi students are still allowed to eat during Ramadan.

Mamdani Drops Speed Limits to 15 mph

Jacking up taxes won’t cover Zohran Mamdani’s spending spree, even if he manages to strongarm Albany into going along at the state level. But he has other means of raising funds — like 15 mph speed limits.

NYC.gov proclaimed yesterday:

Mamdani and New York City Department of Transportation Commissioner (NYC DOT) Mike Flynn today announced that NYC DOT will reduce the speed limit to 15 MPH at every eligible school location across the five boroughs by the end of Mayor Mamdani’s first term.

If 15 mph doesn’t bring in enough revenue via speeding tickets, he can drop it down to 5 mph. New Yorkers had better not complain, because it is for the children:

Shoving the Vets Onto Subway Tracks Americans Won’t Shove

Democrat unwillingness to incarcerate criminals or cooperate with immigration enforcement makes for exciting times in New York City. Just waiting for a subway train can be the thrill of a lifetime.

Via Post Millennial:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has requested that New York authorities not release Bairon Posada-Hernandez, a Honduran illegal immigrant who has been deported four times with an extensive criminal record, who is now accused of shoving two men onto New York City subway tracks.

Good luck getting any cooperation out of NYC authorities under Zohran Mamdani.

The alleged attack occurred on Sunday, March 8 at the Lexington Avenue-63rd Street station in Manhattan. According to officials, a 30-year-old victim is in stable condition, while an 83-year-old Air Force veteran remains in critical condition. Posada-Hernandez was arrested on March 10 and charged with attempted murder.

That may not be a serious charge under pro-criminal Soros-appointed Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.

Maybe Mamdani & Co. will surprise us by honoring an ICE detainer. But just to be on the safe side, stay away from NYC subway tracks. Better still, stay away from NYC.

In addition to his four deportations,

The suspect also has a lengthy criminal history, with 15 prior charges including simple assault, domestic violence, obstruction of police, possession of a weapon, drug possession, and aggravated assault.

Why are foreign invaders with long criminal records allowed to run loose wreaking havoc? Moonbattery is why.
