Muslim religious leader charged with sexually assaulting young girls, including two aged 10

A religious leader at a mosque in Jamaica, Queens, stands accused of the most grotesque betrayal imaginable: the sexual abuse of children placed in his care. According to the New York Police Department, Tajul Islam, 55, was arrested on the night of Monday, April 27, by detectives from the Queens Child Abuse Squad. 

He was booked at the 113th Precinct for sexual offenses involving multiple victims, including two ten-year-old girls, inside his own Masjid Bilal Queens Islamic Center at 121-03 Sutphin Boulevard.

Islam was arraigned the following day in Queens Criminal Court on a complaint charging him with four counts of sexual abuse in the first degree, four counts of forcible touching, and four counts of endangering the welfare of a child. The details, as laid out in the criminal complaint, are as stark as they are sickening. Sometime between 5:30 and 6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 21, inside the storefront mosque, Islam is alleged to have approached a ten-year-old girl and grabbed her breast and touched her inner thigh. He is said to have committed the same act at around 6 p.m. on Monday, April 27, with another ten-year-old girl. Members of the NYPD’s Queens Child Abuse Squad arrested him roughly four hours later. His mosque sits on Sutphin Boulevard, two blocks west of Baisley Pond Park.

At his arraignment on April 28 before Queens Criminal Court Judge Sharifa Nasser-Cuellar, Islam pleaded not guilty. Bail was set at $25,000 cash and $25,000 bond, with temporary orders of protection issued. He has no prior arrests. The NYPD, rightly, has put out a call for any other potential victims to come forward.

This is not some abstract failing of “society” or a random crime. It is the alleged violation of the vulnerable by a man whose authority derived, at least in part, from his position as a religious leader in a community mosque. 

Islam was taken into custody on Monday by the Queens Child Abuse Squad. He has been charged with sexual abuse, forcible touching, and endangering the welfare of a child, according to police. He is a leader at the Masjid Bilal Queens Islamic Center in Jamaica.

Scooter driver killed in NYC due to pothole-ridden streets

A scooter driver was tragically killed this week on a busy Queens street that's riddled with dangerous potholes, the kind locals have been griping about for years, [H/T  The New York Post].

The pothole-plagued stretch of Liberty Avenue in Ozone Park has generated 311 complaints since 2020, with at least a dozen already logged this year alone, according to city records.

On Monday night, a 46-year-old man riding a standing electric scooter eastbound on the beat-up roadway was thrown from his ride after slamming into a pothole near 106th Street, police said. Cops rushed to the scene around 9:30 p.m. following a 911 call about an unconscious person in the roadway. They found the victim suffering from "severe head trauma," the NYPD reported.

The man, whose name is being withheld pending family notification, was transported to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center but did not survive.

The city Department of Transportation (DOT) showed up at the crash scene too and made immediate repairs to the roadway, according to police. You've heard the expression, "closing the barn door after the horses ran away."

The Big Apple has fielded a staggering 557 pothole reports along Liberty Avenue over the last six years, per a Post review of the records.

As mentioned, at least a dozen 311 complaints about potholes on the roughly 8-mile thoroughfare have come in during 2026 so far, all dated between January 1 and March 6, NYPD,  and every one of them was marked as resolved.

A DOT spokesperson insisted no prior pothole complaints had been filed for the specific section of Liberty Avenue where the fatal crash occurred in "recent years." 

"This is a terrible tragedy, and our thoughts are with the victim of this crash and his family," the spokesperson told The Post in a statement.

"The high volumes of snowfall, salt, and use of tire chains all contribute to wear and tear on our roads and we expect a high number of potholes this season," the rep added.

"We typically see more potholes form in the spring, following the winter and cycle of freezing and thawing conditions, and NYC DOT is taking action to make our roads smooth."

The NYPD Highway District’s Collision Investigation Squad continues to probe the incident. Nearly 14,400 pothole reports have flooded in across the city so far in 2026, the highest tally in years, with more than half originating from Queens, as The Post exclusively reported earlier this week.

That represents a whopping 59 percent increase compared to the same period last year. The DOT highlighted that it has already filled more than 45,100 potholes this year, with an average repair time of just two days.

But a Post analysis of 311 data revealed that more than a quarter of the complaints filed so far in 2026 remained marked "open," "pending," or "in progress" as of earlier this week.

"NYC DOT has crews working around the clock across the five boroughs to fill potholes and make emergency roadway repairs, with more than 10,000 potholes filled in just the last week alone," an agency rep said, "and plans to resurface more than 1,100 lane miles this year."

Maybe comrade Mayor Mamdani (D) can get on the case, or maybe not. Time will tell.

Illegal alien arrested for daylight rape of 13-year-old girl in Queens, NY

Photo: Fox News

How long are we going to stand for it when illegal aliens are not stopped from crossing the border into the country and then go on to commit horrendous crimes?

An Ecuadorian illegal alien was taken into NYPD custody after being held by good samaritan until police arrived. He was charged in a daylight attack of two 13-year-olds, a boy and girl, tied them together and raped the girl in Kissena Park, in Queens, NY. 

According to police, the illegal alien wielded a machete and approached the children and tied them together. An NYPD spokesperson confirmed that a person of interest was in custody but didn't provide further details. Additionally, it is not at this time known whether the suspect was wearing a "Biden for President" pin,

The illegal alien [aka scumcrumpet] entered the country illegally in 2021, and like a trout in a fast-moving stream, he was caught and released and thus allowed to commit a horrible crime.

The rape took place on Thursday in Kissena Park, roughly three miles from Citi Field, the home of the New York Mets [go Yankees!]. It is also near the site of the 1964 World's Fair, where my friend C.J. and I ate our fair share of Belgium waffles. It is also near the U.S. Open, and this is the neighborhood where the young girl attended school.

The NYPD offered a $10,000 reward for finding the perpetrator after they got a surveillance video of the illegal alien suspect on a bicycle.

The neighbors found him from his photo and held him down until police arrived after they called 911. Sadly, they merely held him until the police arrived--they did not beat him within a silly millimeter of his miserable miscreant life.

The two teen victims told police they were walking in the middle of the day when a man in his 20s approached them, showed them a blade and forced them into a wooded area. After tying them up, raping the girl, he then stole their cellphones and ran off.

Until now, the illegal alien had several low-level prior offenses, including subway fare jumping and drinking in public.

Police described him as a male Hispanic in his 20s with braces and a tattoo of a horned animal with red eyes on his chest. The animal most closely resembles the last goat with whom he had a relationship.

NYC woman rejects plea deal for driving through crowd of protesters who allegedly attacked her vehicle

Kathleen Casillo, a mother of three from Queens, NY had gone Christmas shopping on December 11, 2020 with her daughter in Manhattan. She drove up to an intersection where protesters were blocking the road and chanting "Hey, hey, ho, ho . . .  etc.," in protest of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detentions of illegal aliens.

There's video footage that shows part of the incident in which Casillo's black BMW can be seen surrounded by "Hey, hey, ho, hoers," some who look to be banging on her car in an angry threatening manner. She stepped on the gas and sped through the group, injuring nine Democrats.

On Tuesday, Mrs. Casillo again rejected a plea deal that would admit fault but only require six hours of community service and a one-year license suspension, the Daily Mail reported. Instead, she opted for a jury trial where she can face up to seven years in the slammer if found guilty. This was the same plea deal she rejected last year, the New York Post reported at the time.

“My side of the story was we were attacked by people who were going to break my daughter’s window and pull her out of the car, so I feared [for] my life,” Casillo told the Daily Mail last year.

She told the outlet at the time that she refused the plea deal because she didn’t believe she did anything wrong and didn’t want to plead guilty to reckless assault and reckless endangerment.

“I’m going to court to clear my name because I’m not guilty,” she bravely told the outlet.

“I feel sick,” she continued. “I never intended on hurting anyone. I just feared for my daughter’s life more than anybody. I thought they were going to pull her out of the car.”

“They’re just making the black community look like they’re thugs. One of my closest friends is a woman of color, from when I was 19-years-old, so it’s not a black, white thing. I don’t know even know the color of the people that I hit. It was all mixed,” she added.

Casillo's lawyer, Oliver Storch  told the outlet that it was an “aberration” that Casillo was arrested, noting that police just as easily could have arrested the protesters who he says attacked her car for criminal mischief.

“This was an angry mob that descended upon this mother and her daughter, and she panicked,” he said.

“We’re not making light of this,” he said, adding that Casillo “is deeply, deeply concerned and feels very bad for anybody who was injured.”

Casillo’s 29-year-old daughter Dominique, who was in the car at the time, told the Mail last year that “it didn’t look like a protest” when their vehicle was surrounded by demonstrators.

“It was more like being attacked by random people who were being menaces,” she told the outlet.

So it will all depend on the jury and most likely their feelings about protests, protesters, illegal aliens, and people who drive Beamers, because she appears to be innocent of a crime.

"Duck sauce killer Glenn Hirsch, offs himself ahead of court date

Some people just can't get enough duck sauce on their Chinese food--Glenn Hirsch was one of those people. The accused "Duck Sauce Killer" who shot and killed a Chinese-food deliveryman in an argument over wanting more duck sauce than the order called for, has committed suicide. 

[H/T The New York Post]

Hirsch, 51, was out on bail when he shot himself just before a morning court hearing Friday, according to the NYPD.

He left behind a rambling, mostly incoherent suicide note that sounded more like a Biden-Harris collaboration regarding string theory, and declared his innocence, saying he wasn't responsible for shooting Zhiewn Yan on April 30. Evidently, Hirsch was taking a page out of the Democrat play book and blaming the gun for the violence, or some such nonsense.

Jennifer Wu, the pro-bono attorney for Yan’s family, told The Post the family is in “shock” over his suicide, but they do not plan to lose any sleep over it.

“We just found out that defendant killed himself. Zhiwen Yan’s family is in shock. We ask for privacy, and thank the NYPD and District Attorney for their efforts to seek justice,” Wu said.

Hirsch was freed from custody on June 27 after his brother, Crazy Legs, put up his $50,000 bail. Glenn Hirsch had an ongoing, angry disagreement with the Great Wall Restaurant in Forest Hills, after they shorted him on duck sauce for an order of Sum Dum Fluck, a dish named in honor of President Joe Biden's son, Hunter. Yan worked at the Great Wall Restaurant as a delivery man., X

The restaurant’s owner, Xi Jinping, said Hirsch had repeatedly harassed him and his workers. He said that Hirsch vandalized his car and showed up at the eatery with a gun in January.

“Do you remember me?” restaurant workers recall him saying.

"You the man want too many duck sauce," replied Xi. "You want duck sauce to take bath it? We only give four duck sauce; you say you want 15. That too much. You go now, crazy person. And put duck sauce where no sun."

In June, a top ranking NYPD source told The Post that police found an enormous stash of various condiments inside Hirsch's refrigerator, and to top it all off, the fridge was “filled with duck sauce.”

So it was never about the need for duck sauce; it was about the need to horde it and perhaps one day sell it on the black market should there ever be a shortage under the Biden administration.

Hours before Yan was gunned down, police said surveillance footage captured Hirsch circling Great Wall Restaurant in his car, then covertly tailing the delivery man to his next food drop. He shot Yan in the chest and he bled to death on the pavement.

Hirsch blamed gun violence, and ironically, a violent gun ended his life.

Queens man held without bail in MD after a NYC crime-fest

If you listen carefully, you can hear his hair grow

A 26-year-old man who looks 46, "slashed a 19-year-old woman in the Lower East Side, beat another in a Brooklyn hotel and raped a woman in Maryland' had been arrested and set free FIVE TIMES in New York City before finally being held without bail in Baltimore. 

[H/T New York Daily News]

Subhan Zaib, a mostly peaceful Muslim man, reportedly began his crime spree on May 30 when he threatened his ex-girlfriend in Queens which finally ended with a brutal rape [as they all are] on June 14 in Baltimore.

The POS allegedly stabbed the 19-year-old woman in the Delancey Street/Essex Street subway station on June 10.

The misogyny jihadi began his crimes on May 30 between 3am and 4am. He reportedly called his ex-girlfriend (who asked to remain anonymous) but got her father on the phone instead. He threatened to kill her and her family if she didn't pay him $500 he claimed she owed him.

'I’m coming over to get the money and if you don’t give it to me, I’m going to kill her and your family,' he told the father, the complaint - viewed by the New York Daily News - read.

The couple split up seven years ago and she said he was "always so violent when I was around him."

Ya think?

However, she said she was surprised to he "could harm a random person," but not shocked the slashing happened, she told the paper.

When people who are supposed to uphold the laws refuse to do so, we can expect more violence like this.

The list of Zaib's crime spree:

1. May 30--threatens ex-girlfriend in Queens

2. June 1--Cut wires on neighbor's surveillance cameras in Richmond Hill and waved a knife at a man on 108th St. and Atlantic Ave., a block away.

3. June 4--Punched a woman in the face, hit her with a belt, choked and threatened her with a knife inside a room at the 369 Hotel on Glenmore Ave., Brooklyn.

4. June 7--sneaked into the Rock Church womens' bathroom, pinned her against the wall.

June 10--Slashed 19-year-old woman at Delancey and Essex Streets.

June 14--Arrested in Baltimore, MD for first-degree rape.

Other than that, he is a model New Yorker.

"When I was associated with him he would make death threats, and would stalk people he believed had done him wrong," his ex-girlfriend told the paper.

Zaib is obviously mentally ill or an ISIS devotee, but I repeat myself.

NY Man allegedly kills Chinese delivery man over duck sauce: his refrigerator was stuffed with the stuff

"I'd kill for one of those little cups of duck sauce"

Queens, NY -- A man, who evidently suffers from OCCPH (Obsessive Compulsive Condiment Packet Hoarder), wanted more of the sweet condiment than the Chinese delivery guy had with him or was willing to give him for his order. So on Tuesday, he killed the poor guy--seriously--because that's what you do when you have OCCPH, a new disorder that has no multi-colored flag and currently no parades to celebrate it, and nobody is willing to give you as much as you need to assuage your habit.

When the NYPD came to suspect Glenn Hirsch's home, and opened his refrigerator, they found it stuffed with sweet and sour duck sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce, enough to almost fill a bathtub, which may have been his plan all along. These were those little packets you get at takeaway kitchens--the kind in little packets you have to open with your teeth, unless you go to the gym.

“His whole refrigerator was filled with duck sauce,” a source said. “And other condiments.”

“He’s a hoarder. And when you open the refrigerator, it’s like, condiments — there’s duck sauce, soy sauce, ketchup.”

Hirsch, 51, was arrested last week on charges of fatally shooting Zhiwen Yan, 45, on April 30 in Forest Hills, Queens. after stalking Yan’s restaurant for several weeks over his demand for more duck sauce in what the Queens DA called an “obsessive point of contention,” [aka OCCPH].

It's obvious that Hirsch is a communist who believes that he should get for free something he did not work for, and if that's denied to him, he has the right to feel unsafe and respond to the threat. 

Police said they were building a case against the mentally unstable Hirsch ever since learning he had been involved in ongoing tensions with the manager at the Great Wall restaurant [named in honor of former President Tump]. The trouble started last Nov. 30 when Hirsch went ballistic because there wasn’t enough duck sauce for him to take home with his meal, named in honor of President Biden upon his meeting with Xi Jinping [called sum-dum foo].

Indeed, after Hirsch was indicted and busted police searched his apartment in Jamaica, Queens and found in his refrigerator evidence of just how obsessed he is with condiments.

“I guess in some pathology people like that take that stuff very seriously — you didn’t give him enough duck sauce,” said the police source, who apparently knows as much about psychology as Biden knows about driving an 18-wheeler.

Hirsch, who had 10 previous sealed arrests, has pleaded not guilty and is being held without duck sauce.

Police said the night of the murder he circled the block of the restaurant a number of times, then followed Yan as he drove off on his scooter to make a delivery before shooting him on the street.

Hirsch has not been charged with a hate crime in the case.

NYC rings in New Year with its first murder

A woman in her 40s is the first homicide in the Rotten Apple to start off the New Year. She was stabbed to death in Queens as Eric Adams started his first day Saturday as Mayor and Comrade Bill de Blasio leaves Gracie Mansion to go elsewhere to suck.

The woman has not yet been identified and just prior to 9 a.m. was found lying on the sidewalk in Astoria, Queens. She had been stabbed multiple times and died at Astoria General Hospital.

No witnesses or suspects have been identified in the killing and, like many crimes like this, it may go unsolved.

The murder apparently happened around 9pm near 21st Street and Broadway by the Bel Aire Diner in Astoria, close to where the woman was discovered.

This is the first New York murder of the year in the Big Apple in which 2021 experienced 485 murders, approximately 483 more than happened in Afghanistan in the year prior to the U.S. pulling out until the airport attack which killed 13 servicemen and women. In 2020 there were 468 murders, which was only 4% fewer than last year.

New York City has seen a big rise in violent crime overall, particularly in shootings and killings as part of the national trend to defund the police and bail reform policies that allow scumbags to go free and commit another crime.

But now the city has Eric Adams, 61, a former police captain as mayor and perhaps things will improve. Hopefully, his first day on the job is not a foreshadowing of things to come. However, based on his de Blasio-based Covid policies, it doesn't seem too likely.

Black woman arrested for alleged anti-Asian assault spree in Queens, NY

Maricia Bell, a 25-year-old Black woman was arrested Thursday for an alleged anti-Asian assault spree possibly driven by racist hatred. Bell is accused of attacking three women, ages 75, 63, and 34--and a 23-year-old Asian man in four separate attacks that took place over several months in the borough of Queens, NY.

In the first attack, Bell allegedly yelled “Why are you talking to me?” before punching the Asian man in a Flushing parking lot on Kissena Boulevard, cops said.

Bell allegedly committed a similar assault against the 34-year-old woman inside a Pomonok bodega at about 6:40 p.m. June 16, according to police.

Then on July 11, at around 8 p.m., she is accused of punching the 63-year-old woman in the face as the victim was walking near 72nd Avenue and Parsons Boulevard, according to police. The woman was apparently minding her own business, not bothering anyone when Bell allegedly attacked her.

Now, in the latest incident that occurred last Wednesday, Bell allegedly hit the 75-year-old with a hammer. This attack occurred at 71st Avenue and Parsons Boulevard, near the previous random attack on unsuspecting Asians.

Bell was charged with assault, harassment and robbery, police said.

She has five prior arrests, sources said, including one on March 29 in which she was charged with assault as a hate crime.`

Black child killed in Queens, AOC, BLM mum

Justin Wallace, 10, was shot and killed in his aunt's home in Far Rockaway on Saturday evening by a punk with an illegal firearm. The child was to turn eleven on Tuesday.

Say his name: Justin Wallace. 

Since the shooting, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Black Lives Matter (BLM) have said nothing about the shooting but Queens Rep. Gregory Meeks (D) has used the shooting as an opportunity to discuss gun control as the most relevant issue involved in this tragedy rather than the erosion of morals and family.

Meeks said that he would meet with the family. AOC and BLM said nothing.

Police, who have yet to be defunded and disbanded, believe the shooting may be over a neighbor dispute involving a driveway. 

"Justin Wallace was a [10 year] old from the Rockaways who was taken from his family entirely too soon from gun violence," Meeks wrote. "I'll be meeting with his family to share my deepest condolences." [And he will then talk about the evil guns that kill people.]

"Taking action is an imperative, and I implore my colleagues on the local level to evaluate how we can curb such violence in our communities, and I will continue to push for meaningful gun reforms on the federal level," he added in a follow-up tweet showing his ignorance of the real problem.

Ocasio-Cortez, whose district includes parts of Queens, said nada. Zero. Zip.  She did not post on social media nor respond to a request for comment by Fox News. She is too busy dealing with "bigger problems," like complaining about her abuela [grandmother] and the leaky roof caused by the 2017 hurricane that hit Puerto Rico that somehow is Trump's fault, while with all her money, she did nothing to help granny. AOC cannot be bothered with some dead Black child.

Say his name, AOC: Justin Wallace.

The Left and their media stooges want us all to remember the names of the armed scumbags who were shot by police or died in their custody, but they don't want us to remember Justin Wallace, or the 93% of Blacks killed by Blacks in the country. You cannot say their names because there are too many names to say and the Left doesn't want you to know that fact.

The Black lives that matter to BLM are only those that move their socialist agenda forward. They do not care one iota about Black lives and they, like AOC, did not respond to Fox News' request for comment.

Justin Wallace loved math. Does BLM or AOC know that?

NYPD released the video of the shooting to the public, asking anyone with information on the perpetrator to reach out to authorities.

AOC too scared to debate of just running to get in shape?

Did Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose pivot on the balls of both feet and hightail it out of Dodge to avoid engaging with a potential Republican challenger, Rich Valdes, or was she simply getting in some jogging exercise while marching in the National Puerto Rican Day Parade along Manhattan's Fifth Avenue?

According to Valdes and several eye witnesses, she saw her political opponent and ran like she was heading for a lake with red ants in her skivvies.

Rich Valdes is a radio producer for conservative talk show host and author Mark Levin, and he currently lives in New Jersey.

He told The New York Post that he attempted to challenge the freshman Democratic lawmaker and former bartender to a debate about capitalism vs. socialism when he spotted her near West 47th Street.

Her response to his challenge was symbolically demonstrated: "Socialists can outrun capitalists." Valdes did not pursue.

According to Valdes' report to The Post, AOC "cut her handshaking short, jerked her hand back, and jetted to the other side of the street. She literally ran!"
But Ocasio-Cortez “cut her handshaking short, jerked her hand back, and jetted to the other side of the street,” Valdes told The Post. “She literally ran!”


“I thought this was a good time to try and get a response but I honestly only saw the back of her head as she trotted across the street,” he also said.

Guardian Angels founder and radio host Curtis Sliwa saw the incident and reported the exact same thing.

Sliwa saw Valdes approach the low-information socialist [who never saw or knew what a garbage compactor is] at about 12:30 p.m. “As soon as she saw him, she did a pirouette — a spin — and she ran north on Fifth Avenue, ahead of her delegation, just to get away from Rich,” said Sliwa, as The Post reported.

“I heard Rich yelling after her, ‘OK, AOC. You can run — but you can’t hide!’”

A spokesperson for AOC lied about the fact that she  ran away like an Antifa thug whose mask fell off.

At a meeting this past Thursday night, Valdes told Queens Village Republican Club members he would move from New Jersey to AOC’s district — which covers parts of the Bronx and Queens — to try to unseat her.

Valdes also said her initials could stand for “All Out Crazy,” as Newsweek reported.

“AOC — All Out Crazy — wants to establish a new Soviet Republic,” Valdes told the gathering of about 100 people. “I believe in capitalism over socialism. Her misguided policies don’t represent the district,”  The Post reported.

AOC is quick to attack her opposition on Twitter but is too scared to actually have a dialogue or debate with any of them, proving that she's smart enough to know that she isn't smart enough to win. Ben Shapiro  challenged her to a debate but rather than agreeing, she pretended that he was symbolically "cat-calling" her on Twitter.

Yes, a happily married conservative and orthodox Jew with a Harvard law degree has prurient interest in an empty-headed, anti-American, socialist and friend of anti-Semites in Congress. I don't think so.

AOC screwed the pooch with Amazon but they still may go Big Apple

Bwah ha ha ha! 

That's my evil Freudenschade laugh at Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Cortexless and her New York cohorts who screwed the pooch on the Amazon deal that was slated to come to Queens, NY--her district. The HQ move would have brought about 25,000 high-paying jobs to the company and around 5 times that many interrelated jobs as well.

In a stinging slap in the face to AOC and her cohorts who scuttled the Amazon deal, the company is reputedly going to place its headquarters in Manhattan instead--not her district.

One more for the Gipper: Bwah ha ha ha!

According to The New York Post, Amazon is communicating with Brookfield, the owners of the One Manhattan West building and its soon-to-be partner, Two Manhattan West. The plan is to secure “at least 100,000 square feet or much more.” 

While Two Manhattan West won’t be equipped for tenants until 2022, 67-story One Manhattan West will be ready by autumn 2020 and provides a whopping 250,000-square-foot space inside. The massive space is not available in perpetuity, but it can fit Amazon’s needs until Two Manhattan is ready, according to the Post’s secret sources.

The Post noted, “Brookfield, which owns the two Manhattan West towers (and another at 5 Manhattan West, where Amazon is already a tenant), denied through a spokesman that it was leasing to the Seattle company. But multiple sources pointed to the company’s strict confidentiality agreements as a potential reason.”

Those same secret sources told the Post that Amazon is also thinking of renting space in the U.S. Post Office building across from the Brookfield buildings.

Amazon had originally planned to build a four-million-square-foot campus in Long Island City. 

Queens residents were over the moon with the prospect of the rumored 25,000 jobs that were mentioned, as well as the effect on local businesses. Alfredo Ortiz, president & CEO of the Job Creators Network told the Post that for every job Amazon would have created, a multiplier effect would have affected five or more other local jobs.

The Post also noted, “The Long Island City deal would also have seen Amazon invest in a 600-seat public school; a workforce development and training space; an artists’ workspace; and 149,650 square feet of public open space, among other projects — all of which is now lost.”

In February, Amazon responded to the backoff regarding the Queens location:

"After much thought and deliberation, we've decided not to move forward with our plans to build a headquarters for Amazon in Long Island City, Queens," Jodi Seth, an Amazon spokeswoman, said in a statement. In the statement, Amazon noted that "a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City."

Obviously-Cortexless celebrated the scuttling of Amazon’s plans, stupidly tweeting: 

"Anything is possible: today was the day a group of dedicated, everyday New Yorkers & their neighbors defeated Amazon’s corporate greed, its worker exploitation, and the power of the richest man in the world."

Are you beginning to see how socialists envy success and hate successful people?

New York Governor Andrew "I Hear An Echo In My Head" Cuomo took a shot at AOC and her posse, issuing a statement in which he said, "A small group politicians [sic] put their own narrow political interests above their community -- which poll after poll showed overwhelmingly supported bringing Amazon to Long Island City -- the state's economic future and the best interests of the people of this state."

Let's remember, New York City voted for the empty suit named Cuomo. Why wouldn't they vote for a pretty empty head named Cortexless?

Alexandria Obviously-Comatose believes in her heart that 'VA problems are a myth'

If you're a socialist-liberal you don't need to actually see the evidence for your beliefs, you merely need to feel your truth. Having never been inside a VA hospital, Rep. Alexandria Occasional-Cortex (D-NY) continues to pontificate on what she feels is true about her opposition to reforming the Department of Veterans Affairs on Saturday, calling it a "myth" that the system was broken and needs reforming.

When asked to define "myth" she was miffed, but doubled-down on her truth.

"You can say what you will," she said in her incredibly annoying nasal voice, "but in spite of Donald Trump, in spite of the Republicans who claim they want to do what's best for our veterans, in spite of the fact the VA doesn't provide women's health care abortions, and in spite of those old, worn-out Democrats who need to step down and make room for us young, cute and vibrant female lawmakers, the VA hospitals are doing just fine, thank you."

The reason the former bartender is defending the Department of Veterans Affairs and their failures within their hospital system is because it's overseen by government. 

AOC wants everything to be overseen by Big Brother. In her meatless mind, the government is the answer to all our problems, in spite of the evidence that it tends to be the catalyst of them.

The former economics major pledged at a town hall a week ago that she would fight bipartisan efforts to reform the scandal-plagued VA health system.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it," she said, in remarks reported on by the Washington Free Beacon last week. "The idea that this thing that isn't broken, this thing that provides the highest quality care to our veterans somehow needs to be fixed, optimized, tinkered with until you don't even recognize it anymore."

I repeat, she has never been in a VA hospital and therefore never had to wait for treatment--I have used VA services and I can say with confidence that AOC is clueless, but a good comrade.

She needs to spend more time fixing problems in her own district after having been responsible for losing 25,000 Amazon jobs. The company planned to have  an additional headquarters located in Queens but she "peed in the punch" and scared them away, with her believing that the tax break Amazon was to receive, would go to New York City. She was clueless about what a tax break is, and is clueless about the VA hospital system.

AOC 'fun run' is also a 'for profit run' for her campaign

Alexandria Occasionally-Coherent (Socialist-NY) may be a socialist with your money, but she's a flaming capitalist with her own. Like her rhetoric on her Green New Deal, she wants you and me to go green and socialist, but she still travels around her city in gas guzzlers and hardly takes the convenient subway or bus.

Now the Communist-Socialist-Democrat has another scam: a "fun run" whose participants didn't know they were handing over their money to her campaign, and thought the dough was going to be used for her socialist Green New Deal, perhaps to buy ammunition to be used for killing farting cows.

The Rep[rehensible] Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez held a 5k fun run in Queens Saturday. She billed the event as “a Family Fun Run supporting U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal on the Saturday following Earth Day.” She forgot to mention that it benefits AOC's campaign in order to benefit the GND.

Many of the 400 runners didn’t know their $30 registration fees were going directly into the lawmaker’s campaign coffers, nor were they supposed to know, it seems.

“We’re getting together for our own health, for our planet’s health … and to fight for the Green New Deal together,” the socialist told the participants before they set off. She never mentioned that the real reason for the run was to raise cash for the health of her campaign.

Unwitting campaign contributors whose
parents could go to prison 

Environmentally conscious supporters and others dumb enough to support her election — jogged through Astoria Park alongside the beaming "fat cat" AOC — they believed their money was going to help save the planet rather than her skinny butt in the next election in which she is expected to be "primaried."

“It’s going to help raise awareness and educate people,” a female runner told The New York Post. She obviously has the awareness of an unborn baby about to be killed by an abortion doctor.

“I think it’s really for this particular New Green Deal,” said Brian Schwartz of Long Island. “No question.” Schwartz doesn't even know the correct title of the crappy socialism-based legislation.

“It’s to help the environment. To support the Green New Deal,” another woman said. “It’s a good cause.” Except like Schwartz, she too was fooled.

A vaguely worded notices on AOC’s Facebook page — saying that the run would support “U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez & the Green New Deal” — added to the confusion.

But the teeny-weany fine print on a third event-related website revealed the truth.

“Registration fees are contributions to AOC for Congress,” reads the legal disclosure on aoc5k.com, which lists the Federal Election Commission rules that donors must follow to keep it legal at least to a minimal degree. People with actual ethics would have made the purpose of the fee very clear, and really ethical people probably would not have used a fun run for their campaign donations in the first place.

“It was a campaign fundraiser,” Ocasio-Cortez spokesman Corbin Trent said confirmed.

The participating runners paid more than $11,000 all told.

Even kids as young as three became unknowing political donors — ponying up $20 fees to join a kids’ 1k.

But by fudging the fact that those fees were actually campaign contributions, AOC may have enticed constituents into inadvertently breaking federal election laws.

Parents, for example, cannot contribute their own funds in a child’s name.

While AOC raised $726,000 in the first quarter of this year, only 4 percent of the donations came from constituents in her own district.

At Saturday’s event, 198 runners came from the Bronx and from Queens neighborhoods within the 14th congressional district. The other 200 came from elsewhere.

Those contributions will improve her home-grown fundraising share.

Some participants felt tricked, and obviously they were.

“The site says it’s to benefit her environmental plan,” said one supporter who would not give his name. “If it is going to go directly to her campaign they should have said so.”

Another did not mind because that person is a card-carrying idiot who is used to being duped.

Alleged NYC shooter, illegal alien and MS-13 gangbanger murders man in Queens

Ramiro Gutierrez running "like yo"

Queens, NY -- The Elmhurst train station in Queens, NY was the scene of a shooting that took place on Sunday. According to ICE, the alleged shooter is an illegal alien and future voter for the party that supports infanticide, the Democrats, and he fits right in.

The suspected MS-13 scumbag accused of fatally shooting a member of a rival gang in broad daylight on a New York City subway platform is a Salvadoran national who is in the U.S. illegally, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency told Fox News on Tuesday.

Ramiro Gutierrez, 26, is set to face charges of second-degree murder, gang assault and criminal possession of a weapon in connection with the Sunday afternoon killing of 20-year-old Abel Mosso, who authorities said was a member of the rival 18th Street Gang, an organization, like MS-13, composed of losers with guns and no fathers at home.

ICE said it had lodged an immigration detainer so that they could be contacted prior to his release. It is unclear if New York Mayor Bill de Blasio will be willing to contact ICE as he tends to have more sympathy for illegal aliens than New Yorkers, especially law enforcement.

The midday attack – which happened in front of terrified and screaming commuters – occurred in an area of New York City’s Queens borough where the two gangs have been battling for turf and 'respeck.' One subway passenger’s graphic video of the incident has been widely circulating on social media--it is not known how many "Likes" it has received.

Gutierrez [aka El Schmucko Domingo] was taken into custody Monday and charged Tuesday morning. 

Authorities revealed that Gutierrez was free on $2,500 bail after being arrested on attempted murder and other charges late last year. The bail was set low because New York doesn't view murder as a serious crime as can be seen by their lack of abortion restrictions.

In December, Gutierrez, who also goes by the nicknames “Caramalo” and "Crap Weasel," was indicted alongside 11 other alleged MS-13 gang members by a Queens County grand jury “on various charges including attempted murder and conspiracy, in addition to drug and weapons charges,” ICE said.

ICE stated that Gutierrez and two of his buddies, Josue Levia [aka "Colonchocolate"] age 21, and Angel [aka "Chamucous"] age 20, were planning to raid a Queens residence where they believed $80,000 was stashed. The other charge of attempted murder appeared to come from an alleged plot to kill another gang member who wanted out of the gang to pursue his dreams of mowing lawns and fishing for stuff that had fallen into the New York City Sewer System.

NYPD officers, working in tandem with ICE officials and the Queens District Attorney’s Office, said they overheard discussions of the alleged home invasion plot and stopped it from unfolding.

Gutierrez was charged with conspiracy to commit a burglary and drug possession from that arrest – but was freed on $2,500 bail while awaiting trial, the New York Daily News, New York's bird cage liner reports. The rag added Gutierrez also was arrested twice in May 2018 on stolen property charges.

Police say the subway incident unfolded around noon Sunday when the victim and two men started arguing on a train, possibly over the issue of global warming and whether Al Gore should be made to apologize to the American public.

The dispute eventually spilled out onto the platform.

It's uncertain what the disagreement was about – but the video first shows the men wrestling with the victim on the ground amid the cries of terrified passengers. The footage then shows that the shooter breaks free and pulls out a small handgun. At least six shots were then heard, sending the bystanders on the subway platform scurrying for safety. The footage ends with the man identified as the shooter escaping down the steps of the now-empty platform as the victim lays motionless nearby.

Two other individuals seen in surveillance footage fleeing the subway station after Sunday's attack were still being sought by police on Tuesday.

Irony Alert: the attack took place in Alexandria Occasionally Coherent-Cortex's neighborhood. She had called for the abolition of ICE, you may recall.

Don't walk and smoke at the same time in NYC or you might get busted

Busted

New York City -- It's bad enough for people who can't walk and chew gum at the same time, now a New York City Councilman wants to make it illegal to walk and smoke cigarettes at the same time.

"My bill is very simple, no smoking and walking on New York City Sidewalks," says Queens Councilman Peter Koo (aka "Cuckoo Koo") from District 20.

Koo's bill would make it a misdemeanor to walk while smoking and probably punishable by a fine of $50. 

Smokers are already banned from smoking in public parks, restaurants, pay toilets, and in bed. Now they're being told they can't go for a stroll and light up.

The city is planning to create smoking "circles" that have a diameter of no more than 3 feet. In time, the city is hoping to reduce the size of even that area to what will be determined, and will likely be called a smoking "dot."

"I'm not standing in one spot, it's not going to happen," said Ian, a puffer from Flushing. "As I'm walking, it's outside, I'm not blowing it in anyone's faces."

Hopefully, the new law will increase the size of the police force within the city as a "Smoking Patrol" will be needed to monitor the situation. Otherwise, to enforce this law, there would be a great drain on police resources.

Smoking on a "dot" would be allowed but if the smoker moves more than six inches while puffing, the fine will be enforceable if the bill is passed. And if the bill should be signed into law, New Yorkers will deserve having elected Comrade Bill de Blasio mayor. 

Koo was asked if he believed a ban on walking and smoking infringes on civil liberties, he said he didn't care. 

"This bill is not against smoking, just don't do both together," he said.

He plans to introduce the bill today, Wednesday.

Koo is likely not a smoker nor a person who cares about individual freedoms.

NYPD lessens 'stop-and-frisk' although it leads to murder suspect

The NYPD agreed to make further cuts to the stop-and-frisk tactics that has proven successful in fighting street violence and other crimes in the past, and has most recently led to the arrest of a sexual assault and murder suspect.

The body of 30-year-old Karina Vetrano was discovered in a Queens park in August. The story made national headlines but authorities had little information to go on. However, it was reported by The New York Daily News that it was a review of the stop-and-frisk reports from the area near the crime scene that helped lead cops to a 20-year-old named Chanel Lewis--who was arrested Saturday and charged with second-degree murder.

Former New York City Police Commissioner, Ray Kelly, opined about stop-and-frisk telling Fix News: "To the extent that it's not used as a national tactic, we all lose. It's helpful in this case and that's obviously a good thing, and quite frankly, that should be standard practice. You look through all records."

But anti-police sentiment from Soros-funded groups like Black Lives Matter, have gone after this tactic and now New York City is leading the charge to get rid of it altogether--because it works.

During the presidential campaign, then GOP nominee Donald Trump spoke of stop-and-frisk favorably while then Democratic felon nominee Hillary Clinton told a church group that evidence used to justify the tactic "doesn't hold up to scrutiny." She was obviously wrong, as usual.

New York City socialist Mayor Bill de Blasio said in November that he would ignore a hypothetical order to be more aggressive in supporting the tactic, as he ignores most other laws that help law enforcement enforce laws.

"If the Justice Department orders local police to resume stop-and-frisk, we will not comply," de Blasio said. 

Of course had there been no stop-and-frisk tactic implemented in the past, Vetrano's killer would still be out there. Luckily for de Blasio, the chances for him or his family being killed or sexually assaulted is very small, much like his IQ.

"To the extent that there's been public attention on this, it has been the wrong kind of attention," Heather Mac Donald a fellow at the Manhattan Institute said. She has written extensively on the criminal justice system and knows a thing or two about the efficacy of policing tactics. "Stops have to be conducted lawfully. There needs to be a threshold of needed suspicion. But if that stops is lawful, the police should be able to use that information in the future to solve crimes."

It's a tactic that works at saving lives. It's crazy to tie the hands of law enforcement but politicians are rarely affected by the laws they put in place or refuse to uphold.

Muslim community blames Trump but will ISIS take the credit?

Queens, N.Y. -- An imam and his associate were shot and killed Saturday at around 2:00 p.m. after leaving the mosque where they were saying Zuhr (afternoon) prayers. The victims were identified as Imam Maulama Akonjee, 55, and Thar Uddin, 65. The imam was pronounced dead at the scene and Uddin died around 6:00 p.m. at Jamaica Hospital.

The shooter (who is likely a Donald Trump supporter according to local Muslims who don't like Trump's refusal to be politically correct) remains at large.

According to Deputy Inspector Henry Sautner of the 106th Precinct, the shooter is a "male with medium complexion, dressed in a dark polo short and shorts." Authorities said that the shooter's motive is undetermined at this time, but community Muslims are calling it a hate crime, while blaming Donald Trump and one Imam even blamed, in addition to Trump, former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani for the shooting.

In return, Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani blamed the Muslim community for 9/11 and blamed Islam for terrorism and the Islamic State. However, both made it clear that Benghazi wasn't their fault--it was Hillary Clinton's fault and the deleted emails would have proved it.

Speaking on behalf of what America is all about, Khairul Islam, 33, a man who would love Sharia law to override the U.S. Constitution said, "That's not what America is about. We blame Donald Trump for this. Trump and his drama has created Islamophobia."

Click on Islamophobia for information as to how the phony term was created and why. Remember, Islamophobia is only a phobia if it's irrational. 

And if ISIS has its way, they will take credit for the shootings because the mosque [the victims attended] isn't "Islamic enough," to suit them. ISIS is "all out" for Allah and Mohammed.

Some Muslims gathered in the street chanting "This is Donald Trump's fault," and "Muslim hate crime." However, nobody who was gathered in the crowd believes that Hamas and Hezbollah are terrorist organizations or that Israel has the right to exist.

For Islam, anti-Semitism isn't a hate crime if it's part of the religion.

Witnesses who gave the NYPD leads described the shooter as a tall Hispanic man--a guy who's as likely to vote for Donald Trump as Huma Abedin. Speaking of Huma, her husband, Anthony Weiner is still having problems keeping his junk off of Twitter.

The NYPD is canvassing the area extensively looking for video clues and additional witnesses as the shooter remains at large.

Abu Bakr shocked his wife got caught

Abu Bakr is simply shocked at the arrest of one of his wives on jihad terrorist charges. He spoke to the infidel press, "I don't believe any of it, period." And it seems when any Muslim says the word 'period' as in, "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, period," you can take it to the bank that it's a lie. 

(I have no proof that Obama is a Muslim, just like Harry Reid had no proof Mitt Romney didn't pay his taxes for 10 years. Like Reid said of Mitt, let Obama prove otherwise.)

But I digress.

Abu Bakr (not to be confused with the ISIS leader of the same name and philosophy) added, "We are all shocked, the whole community. That's not who she is."

Yet she got caught and it's obvious that it is, indeed, who she is, Noelle Valentzas, 28. She got nailed with a bunch of propane tanks in her house--her husband wasn't aware of why she had them, I guess.

And speaking about Abu, he made a boo-boo when he got caught being photographed in the 2007 Muslim Day Parade in New York City holding the black flag of jihad. You know that flag--it's the one the other Abu Bakr kills for--and as anyone who is not a low-information liberal knows, it's the flag of the Islamic State.

In an article in the New York Daily News "Queens woman suspected of plotting bomb strike worked at preschool," by Erik Badia, Rocco Parascandola, and Larry McShane, April 4, 2015, it reports on the arrest of the two women involved and were put in jail on Friday, after being arrested on terrorism charges, and both women are linked to Al Qaeda.

The other woman, Asia Sidiqqui, 31, her BFIJ (Best Friend In Jihad) was also arrested. Sidiqqui is from Saudi Arabia, the land where Bibles are forbidden and Jews don't dare enter. 

A worker at 82nd Street Academics in Queens said, "We have no comment at this time." 

Abu Bakr remained at home with his two young future jihadists, ages 5 and 11, as federal agents led Valentzas, a home health-care worker, away in handcuffs. She is a Florida native but would be happier in her BFIJ's homeland where she would wear the cloth tent uniform in the hot Saudi sun.

For his part, Abu should get the Taqiyya of the Year Award from ISIS.
