• NY GOP Primary

    From Aaron Thomas@1:342/201 to All on Thu Mar 26 09:51:22 2026
    NY's GOP primary for governor is in June, and it's a closed primary (good.)

    There's a "Libertarian" candidate named Larry Sharpe who said some interesting things about this primary:

    Bruce Blakeman (GOP candidate endorsed by Trump) sued to keep "Curtis Sliwa" off the ballot! Can you believe that? The RINO who botched NYC's mayoral elections several times also wants to ruin things for the entire state!

    Curtis Sliwa is a POS and needs to be deported.

    Yea but I'm still a registered Democrat, and of course they don't do primaries.

    Florida mid August... Gubernatorial race in Florida and I'm voting for Rep. Byron Donalds

    That doesn't give him much time for campaigning, but I don't think he needs it.

    No he doesn't need it. He's leading in the polls right now. He'll be missed by the house though.

    No, my wife is still a permanent resident. I'm confident that Bruce Blakeman will win the primary. Trump's endorsement should be enough to make that happen.

    OMG, Your wife needs to file her N400 to get citizenship.

    You don't need a Lawyer because I am familiar with the document... I can help or set you up.

    There are 2 important dates to her GC and that is either 3 or 5 years. If she is past those 2 dates, since her card was issued, she can apply.

    Once she gets her Certificate of Citizenship you might have to man-sxplain that she should keep it safe as she will need it to register to vote.

    Offer is open to you and your wonderful family!!!

    Thanks, I'll tell her about this. I think we haven't done it because of the $700 bucks. I don't think there's much to gain other than the right to vote and to be off the scrutiny of being a resident.

    She should do it for the sake of doing it. -= I Think =- NY needs more Republican voters. One voter at a time!!!

    Recall a while back I helped a woman I know get a GC?? Well she married someone who is A-Political... over 50 and has never voted in a US election.

    They live in Baltimore. He has a son ~15 and the boy wears a MAGA hat to school, funny AF.

    We'll be filing her N-400 sometime in a year or so. I think the adults in the house have no hope... but the 15 YO is special.

    NY is gone. It's in the late state of Atlas Shrugged as everyone who contributes leaves because the gov't takes a bigger and bigger cut of their wealth.

    They aren't going to come back for a long time because they can't have assurance that this won't happen again.

    I know, it can especially be helpful in local elections, like to re-elect our awesome county sheriff.

    I love it when I find out that someone is MAGA.

    When my county's district attorney was running for office I was skeptical of him. But then I saw him at a Trump rally (81 miles away from here) and because of that I'll support him any day.

    This MAGA brotherhood feeling that I have is not something that the left can relate to. We appreciate each other because we helped save the country. The leftists look at each other like "you helped me defend late term abortion, letting criminals get away, and giving taxpayer money to terrorists."

    They want only those that need left behind so that it will be easier to change things, ie communism/socialism or whatever left-wingparty you can have.

    We need to stick together. I'm glad Trump is America First!!!

    Trump got the funding passed for the TSA... They didn't get a deal. Trump was going to pay them with the War time emergency act... Whatever name it is...

    I do not know how Constitutional this move was... Dems freaked out and voted with the Republicans 100% to pass the funding. They only did so until September, now we'll have a shit show later...

    The Democrats were facing court challenges to test Trump's efforts to open the government. A court where they'd have to explain why things need to be shut down. They would have looked bad.

    Yes, it was done on purpose. Because the people who did it want to move the world back to feudal times. Where they (they imagine) are the Royals who live in opulent ease in their estates, while taking the work of us plebes.

    Just like in Atlas Shrugged, their plan falls apart when the people who contribute simply walk away.

    They want only those that need left behind so that it will be easier to change things, ie communism/socialism or whatever left-wingparty you
    can have.

    They need someone to rule over. It's no fun being a tyrant without serfs to execute.

    They also need workers to do the "menial" tasks that are "beneath" them.

    It's a shame that this is happening to the financial capital of the world... BUT the New One in Texas will be great as well.

    It's cyclical. The useless often cluster at the feet of useful, hoping that some scraps drop in to their laps and they won't have to work.

    So they leech off of the system until they ruin it. Then the system re-creates itself away from the leeches, and the cycle starts again.

    Do you know this is not on the news... Yes... To my understanding... Trump did the emergency war times act... or whatever.

    When the Dems looked at this and couldn't fight Trump because of the optics... they voted 100%.

    It's funded until September where the fight may continue then.

    This is a video in Winnipeg with the NDP. NDP stands for New Democrat Party.

    Ron, I do not know if there is any relation to the Democrat Party in the US... BUT I have always known of this party in Canada, Google search says it formed in 1961.

    The NDPs were the working man's party, had ties with Unions and whatnot. It was one time mainstream and "normal". In the province of Ontario, there is a lot of manufacturing... The party use to have a large base there.

    Back when I was young and living in Ontario, in the area where manufacturing was, the old NDP Party/leader use to have billboard signs with the NDP colors of Orange background with brown lettering that just had the word/message "ED". Ed was not Erectile Dysfunction but it was the first name of the head of the party. Edward (Ed) Broadbent, They went from EVERYONE knowing who Ed was and having a seat at the table to now fighting over Equity and whatever the f**k I just saw.

    of how fuckin wasteful they are to
    boot. Not one dollar more for these
    agencies, and and dem I'm forced to

    win where it can be found.

    2 Canadian pilots are dead, 260,000 DHS employees and 65,000 TSA agents were without pay for 40 days, but I suppose that the left thinks it was all worth it to show their solidarity with illegal immigrants.

    So Marxists predicted that Capitalism would fail as the working class rose up and took over.

    That, of course, never happened. Even though the Marxists tried hard to foment strife between the workers and management.

    The main reason it never happened was that the workers we also getting better off. And they saw that they had upward mobility. Dad might always be a worker, but he was also making ends meet and providing for his family. And the family could see that Junior would be better off when he was an adult.

    And then the Marxists set out to wreck that. But failed. So they moved from class to race and better success.
