NYC Mayor Adams claims the Big Apple is "the safest big city in America"

On Wednesday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) claimed that his city is the safest big city in America” after new statistics released by the NYPD showed crime is down in most categories compared to 2022. 

Shootings are down 26%, homicides are down 10% and grand larceny is down a whopping 2.3%. But Adams never mentioned the base numbers in these categories. If 5 people were murdered in 2021, and 4 the following year, that would be a decrease in murder by 20%. But overall, it really isn't much of a difference. So the base number is a very important factor to consider.

In 2021 there were 485 murders in the Big Apple, a 4% increase from 2020 which had 468 murders. So if there were that many killings in 2021, and there was a decrease of 10%, that still translates to about 437 murders. Do the math.

Gracie Mansion Guard Shack

In 2011 the city saw 515 murders, according to the police data. While today's numbers are significantly lower, does that really mean that Gotham is a safe city? 

The mayor's residence, Gracie Mansion, has security guards and a wall for a reason. 

The Gracie Mansion Wall

It's the people in power who are the least likely to suffer a crime in most cases. They have people with guns and walls protecting them, and want to take away your guns. Does the word 'hypocrisy' come to mind?

Not so surprisingly, Adams' remarks came just before two shootings in Brooklyn Wednesday in which a 42-year-old man was shot multiple times and died at the scene.

Miss Iraq blasts Biden for funding PA after Abbas' anti-Semitic Holocaust comments

Contestants Miss Iraq, Sarah Eedan (R) and Miss Israel, Adar Gandelsman (L)

 pose together for a sel

Sarah Idan, Miss Iran, called out our House Plant in Chief, Joseph Robinette Biden along with "every leader that gave money" to the President of the Palestinian Authority Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday, after Abbas once again made his revisionist anti-Semitic comments regarding the Holocaust and Jewish history.

Idan, who has more courage than even Rear Admiral Rachel Levine, called Abbas' an "anti-Semite," and put herself at risk from other Muslims who agree with Abbas' fellow anti-Semites. 

Idan tweeted:

Woah 1-Jews aren’t semites 2-Hitler killed the Jews not cause [sic] of their race but [sic] cause they had corrupt role in society 3-Israel, UK & US planned the attacks on Jews in Arab countries so they migrate. Shame on @POTUS & MBS & every leader that gave money to this antisemite. https://t.co/ji4n3Ci7Tu— Sarai (Sarah Idan) Miss Iraq (@RealSarahIdan)

Simple research will show you why everything he said a lie starting with Hitler & his Aryan Race.. their whole cause is based on lies & raging antisemitism.— Sarai (Sarah Idan) Miss Iraq (@RealSarahIdan) September 6, 2023

This is what courage and decency looks like.

In a meeting with Fatah’s Revolutionary Council, Abbas claimed that Adolph Hitler “fought the Jews because they were dealing with users and money.” The abbasshole also denied that Ashkenazi Jews have historic ties to the Jewish State and were actually descended from Khazars, members of Turkic-speaking tribes in the late Sixth Century. The term Khazar and the early history of the Khazar people is obscure, but they likely originally located in the northern Caucasus region and were a faction of the western Turkic empire.

The anti-Semitic remark about the Ashkenazi Jews by this idiot makes no sense.

Israel's X account [formerly Twitter] condemned Abbas' anti-Semitic comment that stated “Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas: Hitler Fought the European Jews Because of Their Usury, Money Dealings, It Was Not about Antisemitism.”

“This is the same Mahmoud Abbas whose doctoral dissertation is known for its Holocaust denial.”

Hunter Biden expected to be indicted soon, or so they say

We can believe it when it happens but not before. The Hunter Biden special council is seeking a new indictment on alleged President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden,

Federal prosecutors are apparently planning to ask a grand jury to indict Hunter by the end of this month, according to court documents filed Wednesday. While specific charges were not clear, it seems they are related to a gun possession charge while having a firearm while being an illicit drug user. He also lied on ATF Form 4473 in making the claim that he was eligible to own a firearm, and worst of all, he discarded the weapon in a dumpster like a common thug.

He has also been under investigation by federal prosecutors for his allegedly shady business dealings that probably involved his father, President Joe Biden, but that will probably not be in the court case because it looks bad for Joe who obviously doesn't need more help looking bad.

U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss, newly named a special counsel in the case, referred to a seeking an indictment before Sept. 29 in a status report required by Judge Maryellen Noreika, a Trump-appointed Democrat who symbolically peed in Hunter's "sweetheart" plea deal that his lawyers tried to sneak past her. See, there are good Democrats if you look hard enough.

This is the "smartest guy" Joe Biden knows

Hunter originally pleaded guilty, but when Noreika smoked out the bull crap in the plea deal, he pleaded not guilty.

The deal contained an immunity clause against federal prosecutions for additional potential crimes but fell apart in July.

News of a possible new indictment comes as House Republicans claim that they are preparing for a likely impeachment inquiry of President Biden over unsubstantiated claims that he played a role in his son’s foreign business affairs during his time as vice president.

“If you look at all the information we have been able to gather so far, it is a natural step forward that you would have to go to an impeachment inquiry,” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy told Fox News recently.

Hunter, who has a history of photographing himself doing drugs, doing prostitutes, and speeding in his car, has all but said that he is untouchable. Meanwhile, he has been targeted by congressional GOPers for some reason. In fact, three House committees are investigating several lines of inquiry related to both Joe and Hunter Biden and are attempting to connect Hunter's financial shenanigans directly to his nearly brain-dead father, who recently acknowledged the fact that he has another grandchild as a result of his son being unable to keep his zipper zipped.

Musk threatens to sue the ADL for "false accusation" that claim he is an anti-Semite

Let's be clear, freedom of speech is not racism, and allowing free speech by everyone, as long as it doesn't call for violence, is not anti-Semitism or racism other than that of the person posting the hatred.The left is scared out of their wits now that Elon Musk has taken X and made it a free speech platform. I disagree with his possible plans to end blocking others on the platform--I believe we should have the right not to be engaged with those we do not want to engage with, because that's a lot like free speech too.S

But just because Musk is allowing anti-Semites, anti-Blacks, neo-Nazis, et al, exercise their pea-brain free speech, does not translate to him either agreeing with their hatred or being labeled as one of them. And now he's planning to sue the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for sticking the anti-Semitic label on him.

“The ADL is trying to kill this platform” via “false accusations” of antisemitism, Musk wrote.

The ADL was originally a Jewish civil rights organization but has morphed into a left-wing activism platform. They might as well say, "If you don't vote Democratic, you ain't Jewish." 

It's absurd.

In fact, last year an investigation found written material the organization distributed that was earmarked to serve as lesson plans to fight anti-Semitism. However, the material contained far-left ideology that had been clearly influenced by critical race theorists and even promoted anti-Zionist [aka anti-Semitic] social movements.

The spat between Musk and the ADL seemed to have begun several months ago after he tweeted that the atheist billionaire philanthropist George Soros is evil. 

Soros, who has thrown his fortune behind far-left people such as Alvin Bragg among 75 additional pro-criminal prosecutors, including Loudoun County, Virginia Commonwealth Attorney Buta Biberaj, who decided on her own not to prosecute misdemeanor cases, including eluding cops, hit-and-run, reckless driving, public drunkenness, trespassing, and failure to appear in court, among others. In fact, Soros spent $659,000 in her race which she won by a tiny margin 49.5% to 47.5%.

In 2003 Soros quoted Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Muhammad, "Jews rule the world by proxy," he said. "As an uninteded consequence of my actions, I also contribute to that image." At that time, the ADL wasn't so far left. Abraham Foxman, then national director called Soros' rhetoric on anti-Semitism "absolutely obscene." He said blaming the victim for Israel's and the Jews' ills was bigoted and biased. But now that the ADL has sashayed to the left, it's people who criticize Soros (who is as much of a Jew as a ham sandwich) that are anti-Semitic.

Musk is correct: George Soros is evil. He would like to get rid of law enforcement, based on the DAs he has backed in the past and continues to donate to their campaigns.

The ADL charged that Musk’s criticism of Soros was inherently anti-Semitic, merely based on the fact that the philanthropist is Jewish by birth, and an atheist by choice.

The ADL is “trying to kill this platform by falsely accusing it & me of being antisemitic,” Musk wrote on X.

“If this continues, we will have no choice but to file a defamation suit against, ironically, the ‘Anti-Defamation’ League,” he added.

“If they lose the defamation suit, we will insist that they drop the ‘anti’ part of their name, since obviously …” he added. 

In another post, Musk added that X has “no choice but to file a defamation lawsuit” against the ADL, because they have repeatedly accused X of being anti-Semitic, and this also resulted in the platform losing advertising revenue.

Last week, Musk angered the ADL by saying he would let users decide whether to ban the group’s account on the platform via an open poll.

Dem Gov of sanctuary state calls in Nat'l Guard to deal with what they originally promised

The Massachusetts National Guard has been activated by Democrat Gov. Maura Healey [not to be confused with the British sports car, the Austin Healey, which is a lot cooler in style and has electric overdrive]. The reason the leader of the woke sanctuary state had to make that move was due to reality. See, it's easy to virtue signal that you will provide a safe haven for illegal aliens, despite what their past may be, than it is to actually give them sanctuary.

Healey made the move following an outcry by aid organizations as the hemorrhaging has become a nuisance to these virtuous individuals.

Democrat-run states have been free of the problems of immigration in previous years, but Republicans have made them put their so called money where their mouths are and decided to bus illegal immigrants to "sanctuary" jurisdictions causing the leaders of these communities to remove their collective head from their collective nether regions.

So these blue cities, like New York, are in the process of taking in thousands of illegal aliens, some with serious criminal and terrorism backgrounds, as the border states, such as Texas, are being overwhelmed and overrun by illegal benefits seekers.

Therefore, officials in Massachusetts have activated the national guard to deal with the problems they created with their virtuous words while the need for the virtuous deeds hit the proverbial fan. The overflow has finally pushed the limit--it was totally predictable--as they run hither and thither to find housing for them. 

Healey mobilized 250 National Guardsmen on Thursday to help with the transportation of the latest wave of non-taxpayers. Like New York City, there is not sufficient housing or resources to give them all free stuff.

“Right now, the non-profits that are in Massachusetts are stretched and so thin they cannot provide anymore staff,” state Sen. Jamie Eldridge told CBS News.

The number of illegal immigrants in Massachusetts is a minute fraction of what states like Texas and Arizona are currently dealing with, which makes the complaints coming from Democrat officials all the more pathetic and sadly laughable.

And it only took a small bussing campaign to these equally laughable sanctuary cities and states to circle back, do a flip, and never discuss the fact that it was their idea in the first place.

Ah yes, it is truly a case of the chickens coming home to roost.

Of course, none of this changes unless people start voting for better leadership.

A pair of vomit-phobic Air Canada passengers kicked off flight for refusing to sit in barf-covered seats for some reason

According to Fox Business News, an Air Canada passenger said that two of her fellow passengers were taken off a flight because they were vomit phobic and refused to sit it the up-chuck that decorated their assigned seats for the five-hour flight, eh.

The passenger Susan Benson wrote of the incident in a Facebook post on Aug. 29 and told of how three passengers struggled to get seated due to the odor of digested food that had turned rancid

"There was a bit of a foul smell but we didn’t know at first what the problem was," Benson wrote. "Apparently, on the previous flight someone had vomited in that area."

Benson explained that the Air Canada staff tried to make the vomit smell like a 'woman of the night drinking coffee' as they used perfume and coffee grinds to try masking it. Two of the passengers were escorted off the aircraft because for some reason they refused to sit on the vomit encrusted seat.

"When the clearly upset passengers tried to explain to the flight attendant that the seat and seatbelt were wet and there was still visible vomit residue in their area, the flight attendant was very apologetic but explained that the flight was full and there was nothing they could do," Benson said. Worse, the staff refused to provide them with blankets to act as a barrier from the barf named Ralph.

The pair reportedly argued with staff for several minutes. When a flight attendant brought her supervisor, they reiterated that there was nothing they could do until finally the pilot came from the cockpit and told the two passengers that they had to leave the plane and make other plans.

C-eh-N-eh-D-eh spells Canada

"[T]he pilot came down the aisle and very calmly knelt down and told the two ladies that they had two choices: They could leave the plane on their own accord and organize flights on their own dime, or they would be escorted off the plane by security and placed on a no-fly list!" the Canadian passenger wrote.

Benson maintained that her fellow passengers were not rude but upset and firm. Security guards eventually escorted the two women off the plane.

"I cannot stop thinking about these two ladies. They did nothing wrong," Benson wrote. "I am ashamed to be a Canadian and ashamed of Air Canada."

Air Canada told Fox Business that they are reviewing the incident and are taking the matter seriously.

"We are reviewing this serious matter internally and have followed up with the customers directly as our operating procedures were not followed correctly in this instance," Air Canada said in a statement. "This includes apologizing to these customers, as they clearly did not receive the standard of care to which they were entitled, and addressing their concerns."

Let's hope so.

Fauci blasted on social media as a "fraud" and "liar" after mask study indicates that he is

Tony Fauci in his penguin face mask and backup mask beneath it

So the good doctor, Doctor Anthony Fauci, MD went on the Comedy News Network where he was confronted by CNN host Michael Smirconish who showed him a study about the lack of efficacy of face masks in that they made basically no serious difference in the COVID-19 pandemic outcomes. 

Following the broadcast on Saturday, the good doctor, Doctor Anthony Fauci, MD was blasted by conservatives after he acknowledged the study but continued to insist [that is, lie with a Brooklyn accent] that other research shows that at an individual level, face masks help curtail the spread of the COVID.

“When you’re talking about the effect on the epidemic or the pandemic as a whole, the data are less strong,” Doctor Fauci, MD admitted to Smerconish.

“But there are other studies, Michael, that show at an individual level, for individuals,” they might be protective, he said, not citing any of those "other studies." 

A Mask for Every Occasion: "GO, Skins!"

Doctor Fauci also claimed that “we’re not talking about forcing anybody to do anything,” but the only people who might believe that this is the way it's going to go in the future are the same people that believe the Maui fire was started by aliens from the planet LGBTQ12649x.

Libertarian and Medical Doctor Senator Ran Paul (R-KY) who has been a Fauci foe for years said on X, formerly Twitter, “Fauci admits that masks don’t work for the public at large but still absurdly claims masks work on an individual basis. More subterfuge.” 

Doctor Fauci, MD, had previously said that he didn't impose any mask mandates in spite of what the left did in Democrat-run states during the Covid pandemic. Unless you were Nancy Pelosi, Gretchen Whitmer, Bill DiBlasio, or Gavin Newsom, you couldn't go to public places without a cloth mask, regardless of its quality, or even be permitted to eat in restaurants such as The French Laundry.

Uses Chlorox Wipes at every red light

“Holy s***t @cnn just directly confronted Dr. Fauci on air with bullet proof scientific evidence that masks don’t work at all. It only took three years, but finally!” Outkick host Clay Travis X'd.

“This is amazing. According to Fauci, masks work at the individual level but not on the pandemic level. Makes sense,” TRIGGERnometry podcast co-host Konstantin Kisin.

“Wow Fauci is SMOKED on masks and he has zero comeback,” conservative host Liz Wheeler wrote.

“Fauci confronted with most definitive data analysis possible that masks make ZERO difference against Covid. Not a little, not slight- Zero. And he just mutters some numerical illiteracy bulls–t about ‘individual protection.’ He’s a fraud and a liar,”  Buck Sexton, a conservative podcaster said.

Fauci, who is two years older than President Biden, stepped down from his Trump-appointed post as chief medical adviser to the president and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, last year.

When the China virus first struck, Doctor Fauci, MD, lied and said that masks don't provide the type of protection "people thin it is," and later admitted he lied due to the shortage of masks that were needed by health care providers. Once mask production ramped up, Doctor Fauci, MD, started to endorse masking to stem the flow of democracy and admitted he was a liar.

Conservatives were angry but like the late Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) he refused to say that he regretted his lying words.

“I don’t regret anything I said then because in the context of the time in which I said it, it was correct. We were told in our task force meetings that we have a serious problem with the lack of PPEs and masks for the health providers who are putting themselves in harm’s way every day to take care of sick people,” Fauci told CBS News about his reversal on masking at the time.

There has been a sharp uptick in COVID-19 cases nationally over recent weeks due to the approaching campaigning season. You will likely see an increase in people driving alone in their cars wearing masks, not to prevent infection, but to make the statement: "I am woke, hear me virtue signal."

Brain Flushings is back! My short and sweet response

Rob Hoey

Well, it's been a trying week for this writer. My house is on the market; I'm looking to relocate; and my blog was locked for some reason I'm not aware of.

Evidently I broke some rule[s] in the community guidelines but Google doesn't tell us what our infraction was.

But at least I've been reinstated and for that I am grateful.

There is so much discord in the country that is being exacerbated by the political wings of both parties, but more from the left, and it's being reflected in, and in part caused, by the media.

For those of you reading this, thank you for your interest in the flushings of my brain.
