New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is single-handedly destroying law and order in America's biggest city, Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro asserted on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Wednesday.
"I know from my days as a DA, if you don't have a safe community, say goodbye to business, the economy's going to go down the tubes, no one's going to want to move in," Pirro told host Tucker Carlson.
"This is the end of New York City and I absolutely believe this is intentional."
NY CITY COUNCIL APPROVES SLASHING NYPD BUDGET BY $1 BILLION
On Tuesday night, the New York City Council approved a budget that shifted $1 billion from the New York Police Department to programs that assist youth and community development.
Pirro said police officers are already frustrated with the city's law enforcement policies, and feel as though their hands are tied.
"This is a real problem," Pirro said. "As homicides go up, arrests are going down. That bozo de Blasio has no idea what he's talking about."
Last month, city officials announced plans to disband the police force's plainclothes anti-crime unit in an effort to build "trust with the community through respect, accountability, and transparency."
The "Justice with Judge Jeanine" host said the move would primarily impact inner-city communities, many of whom are left "petrified."
"You got de Blasio who is literally taking down law and order and yet these politicians ... they have their own security," she said.

"What about the rest of us?" Pirro added. "We are paying for law enforcement, we're entitled to that security, and in the end, there will be a breakdown in society.
"It's not going to be good," the host concluded. "Say goodbye to New York City and you can thank Bill de Blasio and the people on the left."


thelibertydaily--2020-07-02--No Mask, No Toilet: 10-Year-Old Denied Bathroom Access for Not Having a Mask

My 10-year-old hurt her knee today and I had to take her to the emergency room .
We both took our masks with us because we knew we would be required to wear them in a medical facility , and so we suffered through it for the time it took to get an x-ray and a leg brace and get out of there .
Afterward , I took her for McDonald ’ s to cheer her up .
We went through the drive-thru and then sat by the lake in the park to eat .
After lunch , she had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ took her over to the public restroom at the park , where people have been using it for three months without masks or any security anywhere .
Unfortunately , the beach had just opened and it was crawling with lifeguards and staff all of a sudden .
Where I live ( which will remain an undisclosed location in New York for my safety ) , this park has a very small beach that has always felt claustrophobic .
They charge people money to sit on a small square of sand and swim in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There is at least a mile of lakefront in this town that they deliberately blocked with giant boulders so you have to swim at the city beach and fork over cash to do it .
It ’ s incredibly stupid .
Lockdown was blissful compared to the mask police During the lockdown , when all government offices were closed , including the beach , everyone just swam off the rocks on the whole stretch of lakefront .
It was glorious .
But now the lake police are back and they are forcing people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ They get away with this by claiming it ’ s safer with lifeguards .
The truth is , everyone hates lifeguards and all their rules ; people are perfectly fine swimming at their own risk .
The few weeks of freedom we had during lockdown were the best ever .
So it was in this newly opened beachfront scenario that we wandered over to the bathrooms expecting to be able to go in as normal .
We had left our masks in the car because we don ’ t wear them outside .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ says masks are only required “ when unable to socially distance.
” We don ’ t have any trouble staying six feet away from people in a rural area like this , even in town .
But this day , there was a teenager posted outside the door of the bathrooms—which are mostly outside with fresh air blowing through the semi-structure—to ensure no one could come past him without a mask .
He stopped us and told us we had to have masks .
So I said , “ Okay , she can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ since we left ours in the car.
” “ Oh , no .
That ’ s not an approved mask , ” he said .
Approved mask ?
I didn ’ t get the memo that said which masks were approved and which ones aren ’ t .
The surgeon general said we could tie t-shirts around our heads .
The mask I made for my daughter is made out of a t-shirt !
What the heck is the difference between wearing a mask I made out of a t-shirt and pulling your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mask Enforcer wasn ’ t convinced .
Neither was his snarky supervisor , who didn ’ t care that a small child was in distress .

I may have said a few bad words to them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which is very unlike me , but lately , I can ’ t seem to keep swear words from flying out of my mouth .
Three months of lockdown followed by “ WEAR THE DAMN MASK ” without compassion or exception has broken my “ polite ” operating system .
As we were walking away , I noticed a man walking out of the men ’ s room without a mask on .
So what ’ s the deal ?
You have to have one to walk past Teen Mask Enforcer but then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hell are we doing here ?
None of this makes any sense .
It ’ s too bad I didn ’ t have spray-paint so I could have told my kid to go paint BLM all over the bathroom so she could use it without a hassle .
I haven ’ t forgotten that riots and looting by thousands of people literally just happened and I didn ’ t see anyone upset about masking or social distancing .
Medical professionals put out a letter encouraging the protests !
I rushed my kid back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ McDonald ’ s , where she was able to go to the bathroom while wearing her mask .
But I hope the village idiots who decided that not even small children with full bladders can use the bathroom ( even if they can cover their faces with a t-shirt ) are at least a little ashamed of themselves .
But I doubt they are because they ’ ve been told that people who aren ’ t wearing masks are bad people who don ’ t care about the sick or the dying .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ there ’ s no legitimate reason a person can ’ t wear a mask , ignoring completely how many people suffer from anxiety , claustrophobia , or have other physical issues that might make it hard for them to wear a mask .
They ’ re so convinced of this that they endlessly pontificate on social media about how wearing a mask shows love and consideration for your neighbor .
But what about the neighbor who forgot her mask ?
Screw her .
That neighbor is garbage !
See how this works ?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ masks… not the ones without the masks .
Those people are garbage and are now second-class citizens who can be denied any kind of service .
Add that to the ridiculous flip-flopping on this issue by the “ professionals ” who told us all NOT to wear masks before they told us we have to wear masks and you have a recipe for a complete breakdown of society .
Keep it up , jerks .
Denying children access to bathrooms isn ’ t heroic .
It ’ s the result of brains deprived @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You live in it now .
And I ’ m sure all the mask-lovers in fits of loving their neighbor will say , “ I ’ m glad they didn ’ t let you in , you disease vector !
” as they parade their goodness and virtue among one another as if it is a sacrament of the faithful .
“ Just wear the mask !
” they lovingly shout at the children crossing their legs in agony .
I ’ m sure that will solve everything .
I ’ ll leave @ @ @ @ @ @ @ New England Journal of Medicine on whether or not medical professionals should do universal masking .

There is at least a mile of lakefront in this town that they deliberately blocked with giant boulders so you have to swim at the city beach and fork over cash to do it. It’s incredibly stupid.
Lockdown was blissful compared to the mask police
During the lockdown, when all government offices were closed, including the beach, everyone just swam off the rocks on the whole stretch of lakefront. It was glorious.

The truth is, everyone hates lifeguards and all their rules; people are perfectly fine swimming at their own risk. The few weeks of freedom we had during lockdown were the best ever.
So it was in this newly opened beachfront scenario that we wandered over to the bathrooms expecting to be able to go in as normal. We had left our masks in the car because we don’t wear them outside. Governor Cuomo’s mask order specifically says masks are only required “when unable to socially distance.” We don’t have any trouble staying six feet away from people in a rural area like this, even in town.
But this day, there was a teenager posted outside the door of the bathrooms—which are mostly outside with fresh air blowing through the semi-structure—to ensure no one could come past him without a mask.

Keep it up, jerks. Denying children access to bathrooms isn’t heroic. It’s the result of brains deprived of oxygen. Welcome to Idiocracy. You live in it now.
And I’m sure all the mask-lovers in fits of loving their neighbor will say, “I’m glad they didn’t let you in, you disease vector!” as they parade their goodness and virtue among one another as if it is a sacrament of the faithful. “Just wear the mask!” they lovingly shout at the children crossing their legs in agony. I’m sure that will solve everything.
I’ll leave you with this excellent quote from the New England Journal of Medicine on whether or not medical professionals should do universal masking.
We know that wearing a mask outside health care facilities offers little, if any, protection from infection. Public health authorities define a significant exposure to Covid-19 as face-to-face contact within 6 feet with a patient with symptomatic Covid-19 that is sustained for at least a few minutes (and some say more than 10 minutes or even 30 minutes). The chance of catching Covid-19 from a passing interaction in a public space is therefore minimal. In many cases, the desire for widespread masking is a reflexive reaction to anxiety over the pandemic.
Y’all have done lost your minds.


thelibertydaily--2020-07-02--Hey Suburban Voters, Joe Biden’s Housing Policies Will Ruin Your Communities

A significant number of commentators have posited that the 2020 election will be won or lost in the suburbs .
For some reason , these suburban voters seem to be signaling that they want Joe Biden to take their guns away , raise their taxes , and cause massive job losses in industries related to oil and gas .
Or perhaps they are super excited about having a cognitively impaired leader of the free world .
Hard to tell .
However , my bet is if they figured out Joe Biden was planning on destroying their communities , they might @ @ @ @ @ @ @ self-interest .
Joe Biden has signed on to a plan that will take local control away from community planning using federal funding as leverage .
Stanley Kurtz at National Review is ringing the alarm bell .
An Obama-era regulation that has not been rolled back by the Trump administration is about to weaponized in a significant way if Democrats gain power .
The regulation could lead to such considerable wealth redistribution , Kurtz wrote an entire book about it .
Recall , if Democrats take control of the Senate , they intend to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ control of the House and Biden wins the presidency , there will be no way for Republicans to stop this power grab .
It will necessarily put all community planning in the hands of the federal government .
They , not the local city councils and county officials , will determine the zoning laws that govern suburban communities to achieve their progressive vision of equity and environmental policies .
I ’ ve been studying Joe Biden ’ s housing plans , and what I ’ ve seen is both surprising and frightening .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ enforce the Obama administration ’ s radical AFFH ( Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing ) regulation to the hilt .
That is exactly what Biden promises to do .
By itself , that would be more than enough to end America ’ s suburbs as we ’ ve known them , as I ’ ve explained repeatedly here at NRO .
What surprises me is that Biden has actually promised to go much further than AFFH .
Biden has embraced Cory Booker ’ s strategy for ending single-family zoning in the suburbs and creating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” in the suburbs .
Combine the Obama-Biden administration ’ s radical AFFH regulation with Booker ’ s new strategy , and I don ’ t see how the suburbs can retain their ability to govern themselves .
It will mean the end of local control , the end of a style of living that many people prefer to the city , and therefore the end of meaningful choice in how Americans can live .
Shouldn ’ t voters know that this is what ’ s at stake in the election ?
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for short , is like Affirmative Action for community planning .
According to Kurtz , there are three elements to the strategy that effectively integrate the suburbs with their urban neighbors : • Use a kind of quota system to force “ economic integration ” on the suburbs , pushing urban residents outside of the city • Close down suburban growth by regulating development , restricting automobile use , and limiting highway growth and repair , thus forcing would-be suburbanites back to the city • Use state and federal laws to force suburbs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in their greater metropolitan region Initially , the AFFH used HUD grants to bring suburban communities into compliance .
Local communities could make a decision not to pursue these grants and retain local control of zoning .
However , Biden has signed on to a plan that goes even further to enforce this vision .
Senator Cory Booker ( D-N.J. ) has proposed withholding federal transportation grants communities use to repair highways .
This funding would be nearly impossible for communities to forego .
This policy position is stunning in the wake of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ living .

Kurtz told us why in an article @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impact of this radically progressive policy would put the suburban vote at risk for Democrats .
This reaction is why the Trump campaign must make the housing policy a big issue in the next few months .
President Trump needs to direct HUD Secretary Ben Carson to gut the AFFH immediately and remove any federal leverage over zoning that still exists .

A significant number of commentators have posited that the 2020 election will be won or lost in the suburbs. For some reason, these suburban voters seem to be signaling that they want Joe Biden to take their guns away, raise their taxes, and cause massive job losses in industries related to oil and gas. Or perhaps they are super excited about having a cognitively impaired leader of the free world. Hard to tell.
However, my bet is if they figured out Joe Biden was planning on destroying their communities, they might be a little more attuned to their self-interest. Joe Biden has signed on to a plan that will take local control away from community planning using federal funding as leverage.
Stanley Kurtz at National Review is ringing the alarm bell. An Obama-era regulation that has not been rolled back by the Trump administration is about to weaponized in a significant way if Democrats gain power. The regulation could lead to such considerable wealth redistribution, Kurtz wrote an entire book about it.
Recall, if Democrats take control of the Senate, they intend to end the filibuster. If they maintain control of the House and Biden wins the presidency, there will be no way for Republicans to stop this power grab. It will necessarily put all community planning in the hands of the federal government. They, not the local city councils and county officials, will determine the zoning laws that govern suburban communities to achieve their progressive vision of equity and environmental policies.
From Kurtz:
I’ve been studying Joe Biden’s housing plans, and what I’ve seen is both surprising and frightening. I expected that a President Biden would enforce the Obama administration’s radical AFFH (Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing) regulation to the hilt. That is exactly what Biden promises to do. By itself, that would be more than enough to end America’s suburbs as we’ve known them, as I’ve explained repeatedly here at NRO. What surprises me is that Biden has actually promised to go much further than AFFH. Biden has embraced Cory Booker’s strategy for ending single-family zoning in the suburbs and creating what you might call “little downtowns” in the suburbs. Combine the Obama-Biden administration’s radical AFFH regulation with Booker’s new strategy, and I don’t see how the suburbs can retain their ability to govern themselves. It will mean the end of local control, the end of a style of living that many people prefer to the city, and therefore the end of meaningful choice in how Americans can live. Shouldn’t voters know that this is what’s at stake in the election?
The Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing regulation, AFFH for short, is like Affirmative Action for community planning. According to Kurtz, there are three elements to the strategy that effectively integrate the suburbs with their urban neighbors:
Use a kind of quota system to force “economic integration” on the suburbs, pushing urban residents outside of the city Close down suburban growth by regulating development, restricting automobile use, and limiting highway growth and repair, thus forcing would-be suburbanites back to the city Use state and federal laws to force suburbs to redistribute tax revenue to poorer cities in their greater metropolitan region
Initially, the AFFH used HUD grants to bring suburban communities into compliance. Local communities could make a decision not to pursue these grants and retain local control of zoning. However, Biden has signed on to a plan that goes even further to enforce this vision. Senator Cory Booker (D-N.J.) has proposed withholding federal transportation grants communities use to repair highways. This funding would be nearly impossible for communities to forego.
This policy position is stunning in the wake of a pandemic that has Americans questioning urban living. The real estate site Suburban Jungle saw a four-fold increase in traffic during the pandemic when cities were hardest hit. The impact of rioting and escalating violence is yet to be seen.
Cities that stayed shut down longer than outlying areas are also running into financial problems due to lost revenue. Now businesses large and small may not recover from the looting and destruction of the recent riots. Some of them are relocating out of destroyed downtown areas or will not reopen.
On its face, this policy, with the enhancement proposed by Booker, shreds several levels of the federalist system. Residents will lose all control over the design of their communities. Some of the most heated debates in city councils across the country are related to zoning. What is built where is a big deal for may communities. AFFH will end that debate.
Of course, suburban voters should know the intentions and outcomes of these policies. There is no way the corporate media is going to tell them. Kurtz told us why in an article from 2015:
It’s difficult to say what’s more striking about President Obama’s Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) regulation: its breathtaking radicalism, the refusal of the press to cover it, or its potential political ramifications. The danger AFFH poses to Democrats explains why the press barely mentions it. This lack of curiosity, in turn, explains why the revolutionary nature of the rule has not been properly understood. Ultimately, the regulation amounts to back-door annexation, a way of turning America’s suburbs into tributaries of nearby cities.
As noted, the impact of this radically progressive policy would put the suburban vote at risk for Democrats. This reaction is why the Trump campaign must make the housing policy a big issue in the next few months. President Trump needs to direct HUD Secretary Ben Carson to gut the AFFH immediately and remove any federal leverage over zoning that still exists.
Discrimination in housing is already illegal as it should be. Americans should have a wide range of choices about the type of communities they live in. The utopian idea that the federal government can create “fair” or “equitable” communities is utter garbage. President Trump and Republicans need to say this clearly and often.
Educate your neighbors in outlying areas. It is imperative those in affected communities understand the control they will be giving up over the small towns and suburbs where they live.


thelibertydaily--2020-07-02--If Keisha Lance Bottoms Can’t Run Atlanta, Why Does Joe Biden Think She Can Run the Country?

If all it takes to be qualified to stand a heartbeat away from becoming the leader of the free world is a viral video , Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms would be a shoo-in .
However , Joe Biden has said that his vice president needs to be qualified to be president on day one .
If Bottoms is standing idly by while Atlanta crumbles , why would anyone think she could manage a national or international crisis ?
Following the police-involved shooting of Rayshard Brooks and the murder charges filed against officer Garrett Rolfe , Atlanta police officers let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough .
The started calling in sick in inordinate numbers , leaving parts of the city with no service .
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution , 171 officers called in sick between June 17 and June 20 .
The department downplayed the extent of the problem and scrambled to bring in officers from nearby jurisdictions .
The adjacent departments refused , and on Friday , June 19 , 90 officers did not report in .
This date was Juneteenth when protests , which had been turning violent , were threatened .
Bottoms herself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anti-police speech following the shooting .
She put out immediate executive orders and said publicly in a statement she did not believe the shooting was justified .
This sentiment led to charges being filed against Rolfe and Officer Devin Brosnan before the Georgia Bureau of Investigation had concluded its investigation .
Now the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is reporting that shootings in Atlanta are surging .
Eleven of those victims have died , which is more than twice the number for the same period last year .
Note , the period reported is before the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the “ Blue-Flu.
” Even the mayor admitted on CNN that her police department was utterly demoralized .
Atlanta Police Will Get a $ 500 Bonus Because That Will Fix Everything The AJC contends that police are taking a more hands-off approach .
In addition to Rolfe and Brosnan , the DA charged six other officers for an incident where Tasers were used during riots .
Jason Segura , a union leader , told the paper that cops are still looking out for one another .
With Bottoms ’ poor handling of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enforcement with those of the community , it is no small wonder this sentiment exists .
Proactive and community policing has pretty much stopped .
Segura added : The police are not the only ones who feel abandoned .
Community leader Elbert Bartell is very concerned about the summer and is frustrated by the police responding slowly .
He senses a bad vibe in the streets .
“ Everything is getting tense and the summer is just starting , ” he said .
“ It is a free-fall .
You ain ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going to get buck-wild.
” Bartell said the city must “ try to redefine the relationship between the public and police ” and quickly hire a new chief , someone who “ understands community policing and hard-nosed policing.
” But , he added , “ The community has to step up .
We have to get into violence management in the neighborhood .
We can ’ t lump it all on police .
We are letting it happen .
Our nephews and nieces are shooting each other.
” The relationship between city hall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Atlanta had made great strides in data-driven policing , and the city had seen a significant drop in violent crime .
Now the AJC reports that even traffic stops have dropped dramatically .
In the third week of June , officers made 50 stops compared with 3,000 for the same period just a year ago .
Mayor Bottoms is the leader of the city .
When officers were not reporting in , and other jurisdictions declined the assist , she did not ask Governor Brian Kemp ( R-Ga. ) for help or for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her residents unprotected and vulnerable .
Even businesses are shuttering due to the uptick in violence : Eight people had been shot near the location in six days .
Luckily , the move to defund the police has been stopped in Atlanta .
In an 8 to 7 vote , the move to withhold $ 73 million from the APD budget until the mayor ’ s office drafted a plan to reinvent the culture of policing .
That is approximately a third of the department budget .
Forget reimagining law enforcement .
Right @ @ @ @ @ @ @ getting any policing done at all .
Joe Biden might as well pick New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio if this is the type of stewardship he is looking for .
With an obviously impaired nominee , it is no secret the vice president and cabinet will be making all the decisions .
Americans certainly don ’ t need a leader that can ’ t manage public safety .
Antifa Rioters Threaten a ‘ Rude Awakening ’ for the ‘ Pigs ’ Who Finally Broke Up CHOP Antifastan As Rioters Topple Statues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Another Symbol of ‘ White Supremacy ’

If all it takes to be qualified to stand a heartbeat away from becoming the leader of the free world is a viral video, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms would be a shoo-in. However, Joe Biden has said that his vice president needs to be qualified to be president on day one. If Bottoms is standing idly by while Atlanta crumbles, why would anyone think she could manage a national or international crisis?
Following the police-involved shooting of Rayshard Brooks and the murder charges filed against officer Garrett Rolfe, Atlanta police officers let the city leaders know they have had enough. The started calling in sick in inordinate numbers, leaving parts of the city with no service.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 171 officers called in sick between June 17 and June 20. The department downplayed the extent of the problem and scrambled to bring in officers from nearby jurisdictions. The adjacent departments refused, and on Friday, June 19, 90 officers did not report in. This date was Juneteenth when protests, which had been turning violent, were threatened.
Bottoms herself contributed to this by giving a distinctly anti-police speech following the shooting. She put out immediate executive orders and said publicly in a statement she did not believe the shooting was justified. This sentiment led to charges being filed against Rolfe and Officer Devin Brosnan before the Georgia Bureau of Investigation had concluded its investigation.
Now the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is reporting that shootings in Atlanta are surging.
During the first three weeks of this month — May 31 to June 20 — 75 people have been shot in Atlanta. Last year during that period, 35 people were shot in the city.
Eleven of those victims have died, which is more than twice the number for the same period last year. Note, the period reported is before the Brooks shooting and the extensive case of the “Blue-Flu.” Even the mayor admitted on CNN that her police department was utterly demoralized.
The AJC contends that police are taking a more hands-off approach. In addition to Rolfe and Brosnan, the DA charged six other officers for an incident where Tasers were used during riots. Jason Segura, a union leader, told the paper that cops are still looking out for one another.
“Officers will respond to high-level calls and protecting each other,” said Jason Segura, a cop who heads the department’s union. He said the recent firings and quick arrests of officers without detailed investigations has police thinking the city does not have their backs.
With Bottoms’ poor handling of the unrest and balancing the needs of law enforcement with those of the community, it is no small wonder this sentiment exists. Proactive and community policing has pretty much stopped. Segura added:
“She’s going to listen to the mob” in calling for arrests of and sanctions against police, Segura said. “This is politics and the citizens are suffering. Being proactive will probably get you indicted under the current state of affairs.”
The police are not the only ones who feel abandoned. Community leader Elbert Bartell is very concerned about the summer and is frustrated by the police responding slowly.
He senses a bad vibe in the streets. “Everything is getting tense and the summer is just starting,” he said. “It is a free-fall. You ain’t seen nothing yet. It’s going to get buck-wild.” Bartell said the city must “try to redefine the relationship between the public and police” and quickly hire a new chief, someone who “understands community policing and hard-nosed policing.” But, he added, “The community has to step up. We have to get into violence management in the neighborhood. We can’t lump it all on police. We are letting it happen. Our nephews and nieces are shooting each other.”
The relationship between city hall and the police has deteriorated quickly. Atlanta had made great strides in data-driven policing, and the city had seen a significant drop in violent crime. Now the AJC reports that even traffic stops have dropped dramatically. In the third week of June, officers made 50 stops compared with 3,000 for the same period just a year ago.
Mayor Bottoms is the leader of the city. When officers were not reporting in, and other jurisdictions declined the assist, she did not ask Governor Brian Kemp (R-Ga.) for help or for any National Guard support. She left her residents unprotected and vulnerable. Even businesses are shuttering due to the uptick in violence:
Earlier this month, the owners of a bar in the popular Edgewood Avenue nightlife district posted a photo online of the business’s window smashed by a bullet. They said they felt unsafe and were closing “until the city gets its #@&! together.”
Eight people had been shot near the location in six days.
Luckily, the move to defund the police has been stopped in Atlanta. In an 8 to 7 vote, the move to withhold $73 million from the APD budget until the mayor’s office drafted a plan to reinvent the culture of policing. That is approximately a third of the department budget.
Forget reimagining law enforcement. Right now, Bottoms should be focusing on getting any policing done at all. Joe Biden might as well pick New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio if this is the type of stewardship he is looking for.
With an obviously impaired nominee, it is no secret the vice president and cabinet will be making all the decisions. Americans certainly don’t need a leader that can’t manage public safety.

Pathetic RINOs Scheme to Sacrifice Columbus Day to the Woke Mob, Create New ‘Juneteenth’ Federal Holiday

Sen. John Cornyn ( R-Texas ) , left , and Sen. Ron Johnson ( R-Wis. ) speak at the White @ @ @ @ @ Michael Reynolds - Pool/Getty Images )

Republican senators are locked in a debate over holidays. Specifically, whether Juneteenth should become a federal holiday, and if it does, whether it should replace Columbus Day, The Hill reported.
What's going on here? Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn introduced a bill that would make Juneteenth a federal holiday. Juneteenth, which originated in Texas and is celebrated most widely in that state, commemorates the end of slavery in the United States.
The holiday, June 19, gained unusual national attention this year as it fell in the midst of severe racial unrest. It was further highlighted by a controversy surrounding President Donald Trump's decision to schedule a campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on that date. The president later moved the rally back one day.
Cornyn's bill has bipartisan support, with Democratic co-sponsors including Sens. Kamala Harris (Calif.), Cory Booker (N.J.), and Ed Markey (Mass.), as well as a number of Republicans.
What's the debate? Cornyn and others want to make Juneteenth a federal holiday. Cornyn hoped the bill would be agreed upon by his GOP colleagues, moved to the floor, and approved by unanimous consent or voice vote.
But Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) doesn't want to add another paid federal day off due to budget concerns.
"[I'm] happy to celebrate the emancipation with a national holiday but I just don't think we should be, when we're already blowing a hole in the budget right now, offering another paid day off for federal employees," Johnson said.
So Johnson proposed replacing another federal holiday. He selected Columbus Day, because it's "probably the most lightly celebrated and less disruptive to anybody's schedule."
Cornyn called the suggestion "problematic" because he doesn't want his bill to offend people, particularly Italian-Americans who celebrate the holiday. He fears that making such a switch "dilutes the message we're trying to send, which is one of being respectful and honoring and remembering our history."

Ducey, a fellow Republican, has been taking heat from both sides over his handling of the coronavirus. It would behoove him to heed the advice of Townsend as it would alleviate some of the pressure he’s currently facing. The powers vested in Arizona’s Governor’s office are vast and most Republicans who have chimed in believe even in the hands of their fellow partisan, those powers need to be reined in.

thelibertydaily--2020-07-02--Founding Father John Adams: ‘Through All the Gloom, I Can See the Rays of Ravishing Light and Glory’

On July 2 , 1776 , the Continental Congress in Philadelphia after a lengthy debate adopted a resolution in favor of declaring independence from Great Britain .
The language of the Declaration of Independence was approved on July 4 , which Americans have celebrated ever since as Independence Day .
But John Adams , who sat on the committee appointed to draft the document and encouraged Thomas Jefferson to be the principal author , had a slightly different idea about which day his countrymen would remember .
In two letters dated July 3 to his beloved wife , Abigail , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be celebrated as “ the most memorable epocha in the history of America.
” Here is an excerpt from Adams ’ letters .
Happy Independence Day !
Yesterday , the greatest question was decided , which ever was debated in America , and a greater , perhaps , never was nor will be decided among men .
A resolution was passed without one dissenting colony , “ that these United Colonies are , and of right ought to be , free and independent States , and as such they have , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ power to make war , conclude peace , establish commerce , and to do all other acts and things which other States may rightfully do.
” You will see in a few days a Declaration setting forth the causes which have impelled us to this mighty revolution , and the reasons which will justify it in the sight of God and man .
A plan of confederation will be taken up in a few days .
When I look back to the year 1761 , and recollect the argument concerning writs of assistance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have hitherto considered as the commencement of this controversy between Great Britain and America , and run through the whole period , from that time to this , and recollect the series of political events , the chain of causes and effects , I am surprised at the suddenness as well as greatness of this revolution .
Britain has been filled with folly , and America with wisdom .
At least , this is my judgment .
Time must determine .
It is the will of Heaven that the two countries should be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will of Heaven that America shall suffer calamities still more wasting , and distresses yet more dreadful .
If this is to be the case , it will have the good effect at least .
It will inspire us with many virtues , which we have not , and correct many errors , follies and vices which duces refinement , in States as well as individuals .
And the new governments we are assuming in every part will require a purification from our vices , and an augmentation of our virtues , or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people will have unbounded power , and the people are extremely addicted to corruption and venality , as well as the great .
But I must submit all my hopes and fears to an overruling Providence , in which , unfashionable as the faith may be , I firmly believe .
Had a declaration of Independency been made seven months ago , it would have been attended with many great and glorious effects .
We might , before this hour , have formed alliances with foreign States .
.
.
But , on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this declaration to this time has many great advantages attending it .
The hopes of reconciliation , which were fondly entertained by multitudes of honest and well-meaning , though weak and mistaken people , have been gradually and , at last , totally extinguished .
Time has been given for the whole people maturely to consider the great question of independence , and to ripen their judgment , dissipate their fears , and allure their hopes , by discussing it in newspapers and pamphlets , by debating it in assemblies , conventions , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ town and county meetings , as well as in private conversations , so that the whole people , in every colony of the thirteen , have now adopted it as their own act .
This will cement the union , and avoid those heats , and perhaps convulsions which might have been occasioned by such a declaration six months ago .
But the day is past .
The second day of July , 1776 , will be the most memorable epocha in the history of America .
I am apt to believe that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the great anniversary festival .
It ought to be commemorated , as the day of deliverance , by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty .
It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade , with shows , games , sports , guns , bells , bonfires , and illuminations , from one end of this continent to the other , from this time forward , forevermore .
You will think me transported with enthusiasm , but I am not .
I am well aware of the toil , and blood @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cost us to maintain this declaration , and support and defend these States .
Yet , through all the gloom , I can see the rays of ravishing light and glory .
I can see that the end is more than worth all the means , and that posterity will triumph in that day ’ s transaction , even although we should rue it , which I trust in God we shall not .

The language of the Declaration of Independence was approved on July 4, which Americans have celebrated ever since as Independence Day. But John Adams, who sat on the committee appointed to draft the document and encouraged Thomas Jefferson to be the principal author, had a slightly different idea about which day his countrymen would remember. In two letters dated July 3 to his beloved wife, Abigail, Adams explained why he believed July 2 would be celebrated as “the most memorable epocha in the history of America.”
Here is an excerpt from Adams’ letters. Happy Independence Day!
Philadelphia July 3d. 1776
Yesterday, the greatest question was decided, which ever was debated in America, and a greater, perhaps, never was nor will be decided among men. A resolution was passed without one dissenting colony, “that these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, and as such they have, and of right ought to have, full power to make war, conclude peace, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which other States may rightfully do.” You will see in a few days a Declaration setting forth the causes which have impelled us to this mighty revolution, and the reasons which will justify it in the sight of God and man. A plan of confederation will be taken up in a few days.
When I look back to the year 1761, and recollect the argument concerning writs of assistance in the superior court, which I have hitherto considered as the commencement of this controversy between Great Britain and America, and run through the whole period, from that time to this, and recollect the series of political events, the chain of causes and effects, I am surprised at the suddenness as well as greatness of this revolution. Britain has been filled with folly, and America with wisdom. At least, this is my judgment. Time must determine. It is the will of Heaven that the two countries should be sundered forever. It may be the will of Heaven that America shall suffer calamities still more wasting, and distresses yet more dreadful. If this is to be the case, it will have the good effect at least. It will inspire us with many virtues, which we have not, and correct many errors, follies and vices which duces refinement, in States as well as individuals. And the new governments we are assuming in every part will require a purification from our vices, and an augmentation of our virtues, or they will be no blessings. The people will have unbounded power, and the people are extremely addicted to corruption and venality, as well as the great. But I must submit all my hopes and fears to an overruling Providence, in which, unfashionable as the faith may be, I firmly believe.
Had a declaration of Independency been made seven months ago, it would have been attended with many great and glorious effects. We might, before this hour, have formed alliances with foreign States . . .
But, on the other hand, the delay of this declaration to this time has many great advantages attending it. The hopes of reconciliation, which were fondly entertained by multitudes of honest and well-meaning, though weak and mistaken people, have been gradually and, at last, totally extinguished. Time has been given for the whole people maturely to consider the great question of independence, and to ripen their judgment, dissipate their fears, and allure their hopes, by discussing it in newspapers and pamphlets, by debating it in assemblies, conventions, committees of safety and inspection, in town and county meetings, as well as in private conversations, so that the whole people, in every colony of the thirteen, have now adopted it as their own act. This will cement the union, and avoid those heats, and perhaps convulsions which might have been occasioned by such a declaration six months ago.
But the day is past. The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epocha in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward, forevermore.
You will think me transported with enthusiasm, but I am not. I am well aware of the toil, and blood, and treasure, that it will cost us to maintain this declaration, and support and defend these States. Yet, through all the gloom, I can see the rays of ravishing light and glory. I can see that the end is more than worth all the means, and that posterity will triumph in that day’s transaction, even although we should rue it, which I trust in God we shall not.

BIG TECH ELECTION MEDDLING: Fascist Twitter Takes Down Image From President Trump After Bogus “Copyright” Complaint From the New York Times Fake News

Twitter takes down image from Trump tweet after copyright complaint from New York Times The meme took a photograph from @ @ @

Twitter excised a meme from a tweet from President Donald Trump after the New York Times objected to the use of its photograph on Wednesday.
The meme showed a black and white image of the president with the text, "In reality, they're not after me, they're after you. I'm just in the way."
In its place, the message from Twitter reads, "Media not displayed. This image has been removed in response to a report from the copyright holder."
According to Axios, the New York Times objected to the use of its photograph, which was taken by Pulitzer-Prize winning photographer Damon Winter for a 2015 feature on Trump, then a presidential candidate.
Fans and supporters of the president responded to the decision by circulating the meme on the social media platform.
Trump has been overtly critical of restrictions on political speech on the right from social media companies. He has gone so far as to claim he would shut down Twitter if it were legally permissible.
In a previous rhetorical skirmish with Twitter, the social media giant added a caution to one of Trump's tweets for "glorifying violence" against rioters and looters in the wake of protests over George Floyd's death.
Here's more about Trump vs. Twitter:
