New York City

Elephant in the State (Guest: Leigh Wambsganss)

by

Texas Forced to Confront Downstream Illegal Immigration Issues It’s counterintuitive, but across the country, states are grappling with the issue of illegal immigration, regardless of their stance on it. Elected officials, whether in support of or opposed to illegal immigration, are now facing the consequences of both action and inaction. In Texas, the influx of illegal aliens has reached such a level that the Governor had to sign an executive order requiring hospitals to collect … Read more

NYC blames illegal immigrants for its crime problem (By Michael Letts)

by

(Originally published in American Thinker.) It’s interesting how much Democrat New York City Mayor Eric Adams sounds like a Republican when he talks about the effects of illegal immigration on his city.  Unfortunately, he still sounds like a leftist when talking about how to deal with the problem. Recently, he did it in such a way that if he had been a white Republican, he would have been publicly crucified. During a news conference where he … Read more

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Couldn’t Be More Wrong About New York Police – More Does Not Mean Less (By: Michael Letts)

by

(Originally published in the Intellectual Conservative.) When it comes to saving face during an important period of time – like, for example, Election Day – most politicians might say anything to save face. That said, I can’t quite figure out what Democratic New York representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was coming from with her latest comments.  Ocasio-Cortez, or “AOC” as she’s known in some circles, stopped by the “Breakfast Club” radio show on Tuesday, as people were … Read more

A Judge Has Taken Down New York City’s Vaccine Mandate – But What Does It Mean For the Police That Were Affected By It? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

InVest USA’s Michael Letts asks what New York City can do for the officers that had to leave their ranks following New York’s vaccine mandate. For some time now, New York City has had a vaccine mandate in effect, forcing many workers to take safety precautions against COVID-19. However, over 2,000 city workers, including police officers were fired over the controversial mandate. Now, a Supreme Court judge has knocked down the mandate, ruling it to … Read more

In New York City, Gun Owners Are Guilty Until Proven Innocent (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

(Originally published in The Western Journal.) One of the cornerstones of American law is that you are innocent until proven guilty. It sets American law apart from that in many other countries. It helps keep innocent people from being wrongly convicted. It’s also something that Democratic politicians are willing to ignore as they weaponize the police against people who don’t hold the proper positions on various issues. The most recent example of this can be … Read more

After bail reform, New York’s crime numbers shoot into the stratosphere By Michael Letts

by

(Originally appeared on American Thinker.) It’s no surprise to anyone that crime is rampant in New York City.  The police force is understaffed and held on a tight leash by leftist politicians.  And when the police are allowed to arrest a criminal, charges are dropped, or the criminal is simply released because of the state’s bail reform laws. New York City mayor Eric Adams said during a recent news conference, “Time and time again, our police officers … Read more

The Supreme Court Has Knocked Down New York’s Concealed-Carry Gun Law, Allowing Citizens To Defend Themselves (Guest: Stephen Willeford)

by

Despite New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ objection to it, the Supreme Court opted to move forward with declaring New York’s concealed-carry gun law illegal. The Supreme Court voted 6-3 to striking down the law, continuing its run of Second Amendment-themed protections. As a result, many believe that this could help provide better protections for those looking to own guns. Through the Amendment, the court decided to protect the “individual right to possess and carry … Read more

The Supreme Court Has Effectively Knocked Down New York’s Controversial Gun Law, But What Comes Next For Gun Owners? (Guests: Second Amendment)

by

In its latest decision that will strengthen those that believe in the Second Amendment, the Supreme Court has knocked down a New York-based gun law that will allow those to concealed-carry with lesser restrictions. A landmark decision that stemmed from a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court noted that the Second Amendment overcame the restrictions put in place by New York Mayor Eric Adams. It stated that the Amendment protects “the individual right to possess and … Read more

Was Mental Illness the Cause of the New York Subway Mass Shootings? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

A mass shooting took place in a New York subway earlier this week, leaving 23 injured in the process. So far, a suspect has been arrested, but many are asking questions as to what could be the reason for his motivation. Just hours after the shooting took place, 62 year old Frank R. James was taken into custody and charged with federal terrorism. That said, there’s a question of how much mental illness played into … Read more

Ten Wounded In N.Y. Subway…Despite Tough Gun Control Laws (Guest: Dave Workman)

by

(Originally posted on Conservative Firing Line) At least 28 people were injured, including 10 who were reportedly treated for gunshot wounds in a Tuesday morning rush hour shooting at a New York subway station, in a city with some of the toughest gun control laws in the country. New York’s concealed carry permit law is so restrictive it is currently being challenged in the U.S. Supreme Court and a ruling is expected in late June. … Read more

New York Subway Attack, A Scene All Too Familiar

by

One Tuesday morning on September 11, 2001, we remember watching vivid images on our TV screens as a plane crashed into the second twin tower of the World Trade Center. We watched our country and countrymen (gals, too), come together in a spirit of patriotism, pride, and brotherhood rising and permeating the air. We collectively agreed: Never again. But once again, on a Tuesday, New York’s citizens and subway system came under attack. A gunman … Read more
