| Comrade de Blasio Staging the Deep State's USSA |
As we do periodically, we publish a post from another author
when it conveys a message better than we could.
In this case, Michael Goodwin of the New York Post wrote an Opinion Piece
in September 2017 which warned of the dangers of reelecting Mayor de Blasio,
who declared his intention to transition New York City into a Communist state.
Goodwin's argument went for naught as New Yorkers, embracing de Blasio's
communist rhetoric, reelected him with a landslide victory - likely
anticipating that they could seize private property. We'll see.
If you'd like to refresh your memory on how a transition to Communism
works, and to educate friends and family, we recommend the 1965 movie
Dr Zhivago which can stand as a documentary.

Dear fellow Democrats:
To judge from the polls and personal experience, many of you are somewhere between lukewarm and ice cold toward Mayor Bill de Blasio. You love that crime keeps falling and that murders are headed for a record low, but worry that the growing disorder on the streets smells like trouble is coming.
You have never seen so many vagrants, and so many of them looking deranged and dangerous. Why didn’t he tackle the problem in the beginning, instead of denying the obvious — that the numbers were exploding?
You also don’t like it that the subways are a mess, traffic is pretty much congested everywhere all the time and bicycle riders are treated as privileged characters even as they routinely flaunt safety laws.
You pay the nation’s highest taxes, but it’s never enough.
The cost of living here is out of control, despite what looks and feels like diminished public services.

| Columbus Statue |
Streets are filthy, roads are rutted, yet every time you turn around, City Hall is focused on race, gender and identity politics, as if that’s what working people care about most.
Is the mayor really going to take down the Christopher Columbus statue in — of all places — Columbus Circle?
What would they call it — de Blasio Circle? Al Sharpton Circle?
Columbus statue may get an 'explanation' plaque!

| Lopez Rivera [Puerto Rican Terrorist] |
Police are getting assassinated, jihadists threaten to destroy America — and City Hall honors a Puerto Rican terrorist.
[“It’s repulsive, I’m sick to my stomach,” said retired NYPD Detective Tony Senft, 70, who lost an eye while diffusing one of Rivera's bombs at a Manhattan courthouse in 1982."]
You care about public schools, but the mayor’s claim of great progress sounds fishy.

| de Blasio's Socialist School System |
If graduation rates and test scores were so easy to fix, why didn’t it happen before? Are the numbers real, or are they faked to make the mayor look good?
And why did he relax discipline standards, when every parent knows that one troublemaker can ruin a class for 30 kids?
Then there’s the mayor’s relentless war against charter schools, especially those that have a proven record of success. It feels immoral to sacrifice the future of at-risk children for the benefit of a union that is bloated with donations and political connections, yet de Blasio never misses an opportunity to create frictions instead of solutions.
His reflexive dishonesty is a big, big problem.
The “city for sale” allegations ring true, and it’s not satisfying that just because the mayor skipped an indictment, he deserves a second term. So as election season approaches, starting with next week’s primary, you’re not sure what to do.
Then you read about de Blasio’s interview with New York magazine.
Your first thought is, it’s a miracle he didn’t break both arms patting himself on the back.
Anyone reading his comments without living here would conclude that the Great Helmsman has single-handedly turned Gotham into the Garden of Eden. Look at my record, he insisted, saying it deserved “parades out in the streets.” He boasted of “my policies and my leadership” and declared himself a great manager. Me, me, me, my, my, my. It was tacky — and not at all reflective of the New York you live in. Naturally, for anything wrong, it was “Don’t blame me.”

| de Blasio's Communist Linkage |
It got worse from there.
In comments to interviewer Chris Smith, the mayor dropped his re-election smiley face to reveal his inner dictator, one who would banish individual rights and constitutional safeguards — all in the name of fairness, as he defines it.
“Our legal system is structured to favor private property,” he said, insisting that “people would like to have the city government be able to determine which building goes where, how high it will be, who gets to live in it, what the rent will be.”
For good measure, he added:
“If I had my druthers, the city government would determine every single plot of land, how development would proceed. And there would be very stringent requirements around income levels and rents. That’s a world I’d love to see.”
You certainly wish government could move faster and get things done with common sense, but the idea that Bill de Blasio and his corrupt crew would have the power to determine how every slice of land is used is unAmerican.

| Your house is no longer yours, it will belong to "the people" |
Do you want him to have that power?
Then you realize, this is the progressive vision of government he’s always talking about, the idea that a select few should decide what is good for the rest of us and have the power to implement it.
["All are equal, but some are more equal than others"
-- as George Orwell noted in Animal Farm]
It is profoundly anti-democratic, yet that’s the world he wants to see.
Is that what a second term holds?
Is he going to spring ideas like that after the election?
Beyond the arrogance, the mayor’s ignorance about American history and the Founders’ intent, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence’s guarantee of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” is appalling.
Your children know better! So what to do?
Here, my fellow Democrats, is a modest proposal.
Send him a message.
Vote “NO” in the primary by voting for someone else. Anyone else!.
Whatever you do, just make it clear to de Blasio that you don’t approve of his message.
He’ll probably win anyway, but, hopefully, by a narrow margin.
That would get his attention — and remind him of who’s the boss.
That alone would be a true public service for all New Yorkers.

ED Note:
[Mayor de Blasio was reelected to a second term with 66% of the votes on 6NOV2018.
The "have-nots" presume they will be able to live in the homes of the evicted homeowners in NYC.
Welcome to Communism, folks]
de Blasio's announcements:
"You saw some important changes in the last four years. But you ain't seen nothing yet!"
1) Prosecutors closed an investigation into his fund-raising practices, but filed no charges, while criticizing his ignoring election laws and the courtroom testimony of "pay-to-play" crook Jona Rechnitz, who claimed his 6-figure campaign donations gave him direct access to the Mayor.
2) In November, 2018, de Blasio fired NYPD Deputy Police Chief Michael Osgood, and then fired Investigation Commissioner Mark Peters, both managing investigation of Sex Crimes and the Special Victims Division; Peters had issued a scathing report on administrative issues in the Administration for Children's Services. [Could de Blasio be shutting down NYPD's investigations into Human Trafficking, tied to the Deep State?]
3) In 2016, there were five major investigations being conducted on de Blasio by
Federal, State, and City entities.
More scandals to come?
Will New Yorkers ignore this march to Communism, turning the Big Apple into the Big Toilet?
For those of you who remember history, and Mayor Dinkins' near success in destroying New York City, keep in mind that his protege' was none other than Mr de Blasio.
"Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it"
