Map mosques in Germany (2750) and churches in Saudi Arabia (0). Tolerance is our greatest weakness.

[Brett Pike @ClassicLearner]

Colorado just reported that 10,000 students have been pulled out of public school to homeschool.

This is happening all over the country, and the crazy thing, in my anecdotal experience as the homeschool guy, so many of the parents are public school teachers.

Makes you think.

Colin Cowherd goes OFF on the WNBA’s Caitlin Clark snub:

“They dropped a commemorative poster for 30 years of the WNBA. Caitlin Clark isn’t on it… but Paige Bueckers and Angel Reese are.

When she entered the league, they had to move her road games to bigger arenas just to fit her fans. She upgraded the WNBA from Southwest back rows to private jets.

Yet she’s left off the 30-year anniversary poster?

It’s either incompetence or intentional. Both are embarrassing.”

Imagine if, in the aftermath of 9/11, someone told you within 25 years someone like this would be getting elected in NYC — would you have believed it?

There's no freeze on property tax.

There's no freeze on the wages paid to landscapers, plumbers, electricians, drywallers, flooring installers.

There's no freeze on the cost of lumber, copper, baseboard, quarter rounds, flashing, siding, window treatments.

There's no freeze on the wages paid to janitors or porters.

There's no freeze on utilities -- on electric, gas, water, sewer (building-paid utilities in hallways, lobbies, maintenance corridors; most buildings pay water and sewer for tenants).

There are currently 57,421 units sitting vacant in NYC because it's more cost-effective to leave them empty than it is to rent them out.

If you're wondering: "How that could be possible? Wouldn't making anything be better than making nothing?" -- the answer is no, because of the 2019 Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act.

The HSTPA mandated a certain level of renovation for a vacant unit, but did not allow landlords to raise the rent enough to be able to recoup those costs.

If a long-term tenant moves out after decades, the apartment often requires $50,000 to $100,000 in lead abatement, new wiring, plumbing, and structural renovations.

Because the law heavily restricts how much of that cost can be passed to the next tenant.

The HSPTA eliminated the "vacancy bonus" (which allowed automatic 20% rent increases when a tenant left) and heavily capped Individual Apartment Improvements (IAIs).

This means landlords who want a renovation loan would be rejected by a bank, because the landlord would not be able to show that they could repay that loan.

Landlords who pay out-of-pocket would end up losing money, underperforming even what they could get by putting their money in a U.S. Treasury or gov't bond.

Therefore, it's more cost-effective to just leave the unit vacant.

That's why we have 57,421 vacant units across New York right now.

That number is about to get much worse.

Approximately 85% of the world’s refugees are Muslims. But for some reason they do not seek asylum in Saudi Arabia, the birth place of Islam, or any of the other 50 Muslim countries.

They only want to go to non-Muslim Western countries. Why do you think that is?

[Greg Price @greg_price11]

Congratulations! The rent is frozen.

So is your landlord's ability to fix your appliances or do any upgrades.

And when the conditions quickly deteriorate, Zohran will use it as a justification to seize private property.

Welcome to the 'warmth of collectivism,' New York.

Not a single media outlet has reported on this.

Weird.

🚨 JUST IN — REP. BYRON DONALDS DROPS THE MIC:

"President Obama opened up his Presidential Library in Chicago."

"You needed an ID to attend the event!"

"So if you're going to show up for President Obama's library, you got to present a photo ID to gain access to that event, but to vote in our elections, you don't have to do that? That makes no sense!"

"It's crazy and it's STUPID. And so the United States Senate has a responsibility to open up that floor. You Senate procedure actually have a debate."

"You have a filibuster debate. If Bernie Sanders wants to hold the floor of the U.S. Senate for six months, let him. Go ahead!"

Heartbreaking. After Iraq legalized child marriage last year, it has been reported that tens of thousands of girls as young as 6 are being sold by their Muslim fathers to rich Arab men, some as old as 70.

Where is the global outrage?

In Africa, Arab Muslims are enslaving black African Christians.

The media, progressives, Palestinian protesters, the UN, and even the Pope remain silent.

A Muslim woman in a hijab just said that “America deserved 9/11” and won her primary in NY. That’s what the Democrat party has become.

We are in Texas. Just filled up for $3.59. In L.A. on Monday it was $8.59.

Californians: It's not the Iran war. It's not "Trump." It's Democrat policies that have given us the highest gas prices in America.

You can have $3.00 gas but you have to VOTE for it in November.

Macaulay Culkin, a close friend of Michael Jackson and the star of the Home Alone movies revealed in a recent interview how an undisclosed group of people allegedly connected to Sony Music approached him and his mother in 1993 and offered them a large sum of money to publicly claim that he had been s£xually abused by Michael Jackson, who was facing ch!ld mol£station allegations at the time.

“I vividly remember a night in 1993 when a group of people came to our home claiming they were connected to Sony Music. I don’t really want to mention names, but they said they were part of the company. They offered me and my mom a large amount of money around a million dollars or more to testify against Michael Jackson and claim that he had s£xually abused me during my time at the Neverland Ranch. They told me it was the right thing to do because they believed Michael Jackson was a dangerous person. I immediately told them no! because why would they want me to do something like that to a man who was my best friend at the time and had never harmed me? My mom actually told me to consider accepting the offer because she thought it could be beneficial for us, and she wondered if Michael might have done something without me knowing. But even though I was young at the time, I completely rejected the offer, and they eventually left.”

He also added that, looking back on the situation, he believes he understands why those allegations were being made against Michael Jackson. He claimed it was connected to a dispute involving Sony Music and Michael Jackson’s ownership stake, including his interest in the Beatles catalog. He alleged that the accusations were part of an effort to pressure Jackson into giving up his assets.

The WNBA left Caitlin Clark off their 30th anniversary poster. We have truly never seen anything like this. The league got a golden goose and is doing everything they can to kill her.

💥 Stephen A. Smith GOES OFF on Zohran Mamdani & the Democrats:

“If the Democratic Party becomes HIM, you have NO CHANCE on a national level — not for the Presidency, not the Senate, not the House. ZERO.”
“You might get a Democratic Socialist sprinkled here and there… but that ain’t America! America is about CAPITALISM! Dollars and cents! A flourishing economy!”

“And let’s keep it a buck — it’s NOT about free stuff! Somebody had to say it!”
🔥 Who else is tired of the “everything free” agenda? Drop a 💰 if you agree.
