I think that Trump renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America is pointless and stupid.
Wanna know what else I think is dumb?
The fact left-wingers are triggered about this after they spent the last decade plus renaming sports teams, public schools and universities, streets and highways, food and condiment brands, and redefining half the dictionary altogether.
Here’s a list of some in case you forgot:
• Washington Redskins ➡️ Commanders
• Cleveland Indians ➡️ Guardians
• Stanford Indians ➡️ Cardinals
• Loudoun County Raiders ➡️ Captains
• Edmonton Eskimos ➡️ Elks
• Columbus Day ➡️ Indigenous Peoples’ Day
• Lee–Jackson Day ➡️ eliminated
• Robert E. Lee High School ➡️ John Lewis High
• Jefferson Davis Highway ➡️ Richmond Highway
• Mount McKinley ➡️ Denali
• Fort Bragg ➡️ Fort Liberty
• Fort Hood ➡️ Fort Cavazos
• Boy Scouts of America ➡️ Scouting America
• Aunt Jemima ➡️ Pearl Milling Company
• Uncle Ben’s Rice ➡️ Ben’s Original
• Eskimo Pie ice cream bars ➡️ Edy’s Pie
• Land O’Lakes ➡️ removed the Indian, but kept the land
• Illegal alien ➡️ undocumented worker
• Hispanic ➡️ Latinx (a term Hispanics did not want and do not use)
• Mother ➡️ birthing person
• Anchor baby ➡️ child of noncitizens
• black ➡️ Black
• Breastfeeding ➡️ chest feeding
• Inmate / prisoner / convict / felon ➡️ justice-involved person
• Ex-con / ex-felon ➡️ returning citizen
• “Gender” as a biological fact interchangeable with “sex” to being a social construct
• Fat ➡️ plus-sized
• Master bedroom ➡️ primary bedroom
• Manhole ➡️ utility hole
And so on and so on. . .
For anyone telling me to take it easy on the Islamists:
I was a lieutenant in the NYPD.
I worked “Free Palestine” rallies.
They *always* devolved into anti-cop, anti-America, pro-Hamas, pro-“Globalize the intifada” melees. I watched them even turn on Muslim cops, who thought they somehow had a pass. They figured out what I knew during the BLM riots in 2020; they see blue and nothing else. Those are not your “people.” They want dominance and control; nothing less.
I got out before Mamdani really got to start working. Friends still on the job know the worst is yet to come once him and his Islamist DSA buddies take over.
You don’t know what you’re electing into office. Wake up now before it’s too late.
As a born and raised New Yorker that witnessed everything on 9/11 and still remembers how I felt, and made a solemn promise to never forget:
It makes me sick to the deepest pits of my stomach to know this half-man will be there. If it weren’t for the fact that the reading of the names is a solemn, respectful duty, I’d encourage everyone to boo his ass out of the area. Turn your backs on him. Make him feel as unwelcome as possible.
He’s stood with people who said America deserved what happened that day. He’s associated with people sympathetic to terrorism.
You forgot, New York City. Disgraceful, pathetic, and straight up weak.
Honest question for the masses:
If Trump had publicly published a list of people he was going after for whatever reasons, how would the left react? I mean, he would have doxxed people and we should all be righteously pissed, right? That’s a flagrant violation of privacy. What kind of all-day coverage would CNN have? What kind of falling out and gnashing of teeth would happen on The View? Cory Booker would ugly cry in the Senate and pull out his bag of adult diapers so he could put on another performance. There’d be another “No Kings” protest this weekend over it.
So why is it when Mamdani does it, there’s silence? The government is doxxing private citizens.
Liberal hypocrisy is a very real thing…
She literally said gay people have absolutely lost rights under Trump.
Then when asked what rights have been lost, she realized she had no clue what she’s talking about.
This is what the left does. They say all of these factually incorrect things and hype each other up without even taking the time to ask if it’s true and or what makes it true..
Black pilot, West Point graduate, and combat veteran Wesley Hunt delivered a masterclass response:
“Hey Jasmine… Black pilot here.
I graduated from West Point. I went through Army flight school. I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache. I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color. Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Suggesting that Black pilots, engineers, doctors, or leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard. I wanted the same standard.”
He ended with a powerful line:
“Merit isn’t racist. Excellence isn’t discriminatory. And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.”
This is the kind of clarity and backbone America needs right now.
The inability to control suspects that you are witnessing from the NYPD is a result of the Diapraghm law which was signed into law by NYC council and written into NYPD Policy.
The legislation along with department policy states officers cannot use chokeholds but they also cannot intentionally put pressure on the back, chest or diaphragm of a suspect regardless of the situation.
As this is an impossible standard to uphold when attempting to subdue a resisting perpetrator, the law and policy is violated everytime a suspect resists as DA’s across NYC wait for the politically correct moment to indict a NYPD cop for violating it.
The cops are fully aware of this law and the department policy which is why they look inept at handcuffing a resisting suspect.
A situation which used to require 2 officers now requires 10. You see them clumsily stumbling over each other in an attempt to not violate the law or department policy but ultimately they always wind up doing so because there is NO way to not put pressure on the diapraghm of a resisting suspect in order to handcuff them.
The only other way is to break them physically and mentally until they willingly place their hands behind their back.
The law has made arrests more dangerous for perpetrators, cops and the public. This is yet another gift from NYC council that no one addresses or seeks to undue.
Let’s just all just keep celebrating getting lucky at a failed terror plot and the billionaire heiress and her highly misrepresented crime statistics because the reality of the NYPD and law enforcement nationwide is dark.
The Diapraghm law is the reason it now takes 10 cops to arrest 1 person.
She was young, it was the times, blah blah blah. UNFORGIVABLE. She’s a war criminal and a traitor who should’ve been prosecuted. And this over-indulged fossil has clearly learned nothing.
You know what’s funny about this?
I went to Alabama for FEMA training awhile back. Thought the Klan would be right there waiting for me as I got off the plane. Turned out to be one of the friendliest places I’d ever been.
Sat and had dinner with a Sheriff’s Department from Mississippi when I had work in that state. I don’t think I’d ever laughed so hard in my life. Almost all of them had Confederate flag tattoos, but treated me like a brother.
Meanwhile, I’ve faced more racism, prejudice, and hate from leftists who swear they’re the most tolerant and open-minded “Coexist” people out there.
I’m thinking in the Newsom household, their kids didn’t have to leave their house in order to learn about racism, sexism, and bullying.
Didn't drive her car at an ICE agent.
Didn't try to obstruct an ICE operation.
Was just walking down the street when an illegal alien killed her in cold blood.
And Democrats do not care.
But that’s exactly why it’s a big deal. If Usha Vance had posted the exact same thing, the Left would be weeping and gnashing teeth. We’re simply holding them to the exact same measures they’d apply to us. The fact that they’re doing everything they can to ignore it only highlights their hypocrisy.
