De Blasio goes after Trump's ice rink contracts



New York City's two ice rinks managed by the Trump Organization are being closed by Communist Mayor Warren Wilhelm, Jr. [alias Bill de Blasio] next week as a way of punishing Trump for the January 6th incursion on Capitol Hill, according to the New York Post.

Admittedly, Trump was wrong for not immediately condemning the incursion on Jan. 6th, but he was quite clear in asking for a "peaceful" and "patriotic" demonstration by his supporters. However, Trump Derangement Syndrome is simply too powerful for de Blasio to overlook and as far as he's concerned, Donald Trump must be punished along with anyone who might take pleasure partaking in a pleasant day of ice skating in lieu of being home in lockdown.

The Trump Organization stated that the final day of operating the Wollman Rink and Lasker Rink at Central Park's northern end, will be next Sunday. 

The rink contracts had been set to expire in April, but Communist de Blasio has moved to screw Trump out a month early, effective Feb. 26.

The Trump Organization is closing its doors after close of business on Sunday, so it will have time to pack up its belongings — including some 1,700 pairs of ice skates — and move out.

The Post reports that the city is terminating all four of its Trump Organization concession contracts.

"Trump has been impeached from operating the ice rink," a de Blasio mouthpiece quipped on Jan. 31 in announcing the concession terminations for Wollman Rink, along with Lasker Rink, the Central Park Carousel and Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point in the Bronx. This is cancel culture in action.

The move might annoy former President Trump, but it will put nearly 250 employees of his organization out of work, and suck the fun from kids who use the rinks. But hey, that's just collateral damage and de Blasio really doesn't care since he cannot be reelected for a third term in November.


"Despite our appeals to the City to allow us to continue operations through the duration of the skating season — which would not only save the jobs of nearly 250 individuals who work or otherwise provide services Wollman and Lasker Rinks, but also allow us to continue to provide the numerous public skating sessions and skating and hockey programs that we host on a daily basis — the City rejected our efforts," the Trump Organization told The Post in a statement.

"The city is saying in effect, ‘We don’t care if it destroys the skating season; we want you out now,'" Trump told The Post. "This is one of the only things that kids can do" for outdoor winter recreation, Eric Trump noted.

"De Blasio is now shutting down skating season while New York dies. It’s horribly sad," he said.

"The mayor is absolutely petty. This isn’t about us, this is about the people of the city who come here to skate and disabled kids who joined hockey teams and others who joined skating school and take lessons every week," Trump added.

The Trump Organization is appealing the contract terminations, including the city’s attempt to kick it out of the Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point, a contract worth millions and which has 18 more years left to run.

"If they terminate, they will owe us $35 million," Trump said.

But that isn't coming out of de Blasio's pockets, it's coming out of the city's coffers that hold the taxpayers' money.

No--the blood of Steve Scalise is not on anyone else's hands

Protesters disrupted the Shakespeare in the Park play, Julius Caesar. Clearly the play is an attack on President Trump and is truly a piece of horse crap, but blaming the play for James Hodgkinson's attack on the GOP Congressional Baseball practice is just plain stupid.

And it's exactly what the left does all the time.

I could expect the left to immediately use the incident as an opportunity to call for stricter gun control, but that wouldn't have prevented this or any attack with guns from happening.

The crappy play features a horrific assassination of a character that resembles President Trump and it isn't by accident.

One protester, Rebel Media's Laura Loomer, ran onto the stage shouting "Stop Leftist Violence." 

Did all the leftists in the audience have an epiphany when she interrupted the performance? I don't think so.

Another protester, identified as Jack Posobiec, got to his feet and shouted, 'The blood of Steve Scalise is on your hands," and then shouted "Goebbels would be proud."

Everyone in the crowd bowed their head in shame, vowing to never again attend an anti-Trump event lest it lead to more shootings, stabbings and yes, even beheadings.

Loomer was arrested and Posobiec was escorted out of the theater complex in Manhattan's Central Park.

There is no doubt that it is terribly infuriating to watch morons like these actors, or Kathy Griffin, depict the killing of an American president. 

If we're going to use the U.S. Constitution to make our points about free speech and the Second Amendment, we can't do it a là carte--we have to order the whole dinner--because the dessert is freedom.

Liberal mommies force school to cancel skating party at Trump rink

They call themselves 'liberals' but liberals tend to be the least liberal people on the planet. Dictionary.com defines a liberal thus (I include only those definitions relevant to this discussion):
1. favorable to progress or reform, as in political or religious affairs. [Google Obama and Little Sisters of the Poor]
2. of, pertaining to, based on, or advocating liberalism, especially the freedom of the individual and governmental guarantees of individual rights and liberties. [See YouTube with Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Berkeley].
3. favorable to or in accord with concepts of maximum individual freedom possible, especially as guaranteed by law and secured by governmental protection of civil liberties. [See the article on Ben Shapiro at California University at LA .]
4. favoring or permitting freedom of action, especially with respect to matters of personal belief or expression. [Google US Christian bakers gay wedding cake.]
5. free from prejudice or bigotry; tolerant. [LOL]
In an elite Upper East Side New York private school known as the Dalton School, the annual ice-skating party at Trump Wollman Rink in Central Park was canceled after liberal mommies and daddies refused to allow their children to simply skate without politics involved.

The pusillanimous pontificating Parents Association, afraid that skating on a rink that had 'Trump' in its name, might turn their privileged children into racist, homophobic, xenophobic, misogynistic conservatives. So they sent a letter saying the "Dalton on Ice" event was scrapped, saying "it would not be financially prudent" because of "significantly lower attendance."

What a bunch of pretentious creeps who think they're being 'edgy' and brave, rather than realizing they're simply being anal sphincters to their kids.

One Dalton parent who disagrees with the move said: "I think it is completely insane. Like him or not, it feels like a strange place for New Yorkers to protest. And sad that kids now have no skating party."

Donald Trump renovated the rink in 1986 after the city had their heads up their nether regions for six years getting nothing done.
