On Tuesday night, three of the most high-profile New Yorkers to weigh in so far made their case for Ray McGuire: In a rollout on NY1 , Jay-Z, Diddy, and Nas all announced that they would back the former Citigroup executive. While McGuire has little name recognition among New Yorkers compared to some of the other candidates already involved in city politics — and one who has never voted in a local election — the approval of this hip-hop triumvirate could help change that. “People come from all over the world, like ‘I got a chance to make it here, if I can make it here I can make it anywhere,’” Jay-Z said in a video endorsement. “And that’s what we’re trying to protect.” The moguls weren’t the only major endorsements to be made public on Tuesday. Earlier in the day, Brooklyn borough president Eric Adams got the nod from … [Read more...] about Jay-Z Endorses Ray McGuire, Working Families Party Endorses Scott Stringer for NYC Mayor

The Woke Gestapo have succeeded with another blacklist. “A school in Waukegan, Illinois, will not be renamed after former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama, following protests from members of the Latino community in the city,” reports the far-left Newsweek . Remember, you can never be woke enough. Honestly, there are only two ways to avoid these Woketard Nazis. You can either comply 100 percent, which means you have to do things like memorize all 167 genders and snitch on friends and family, or you can tell them to go to hell. If you tell them to go to hell, they know you won’t be intimidated or bullied, so they move on to weaker targets. That’s it. Those are your choices. There’s no middle ground. If you try to halfway appease them, you are doomed. The Obamas’ sin? Well, every once in a while Barry actually did his Constitutional duty and enforced the law regarding illegal aliens, and because Democrats and leftists make no secret about their … [Read more...] about Nolte: Never Woke Enough — Obamas Blacklisted from Having School Named After Them

A math teacher in a private New York City high school has publicly condemned the “antiracism” training and pedagogy he said he is being told to embrace, asserting this “indoctrination” of his students is “deeply harmful.” In a post published on the website of former New York Times opinion editor Bari Weiss, Grace Church High School teacher Paul Rossi wrote that his first obligation is to his students. “But right now, my school is asking me to embrace ‘antiracism’ training and pedagogy that I believe is deeply harmful to them and to any person who seeks to nurture the virtues of curiosity, empathy and understanding,” he said, elaborating on his concerns: “Antiracist” training sounds righteous, but it is the opposite of truth in advertising. It requires teachers like myself to treat students differently on the basis of race. Furthermore, in order to maintain a united front for our students, teachers at Grace are directed to confine our doubts about this pedagogical framework … [Read more...] about Private School Math Teacher Condemns ‘Indoctrination’ of Students: ‘Deeply Harmful’

Many pro-life organizations have released information providing clarification about the use of abortion-derived fetal cell lines in the development, production, or testing of the different coronavirus vaccines. In December, the Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI), the research arm of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, provided an analysis of the Operation Warp Speed coronavirus vaccines and noted that the majority were not produced using abortion-derived cell lines. “Several used abortion-derived cell lines in laboratory testing, or their use in testing could not be determined,” CLI said. In a report updated in early March, CLI provided the following chart assessing the use of abortion-derived cell lines in some of the high profile COVID-19 vaccines: Chart created by the Charlotte Lozier Institute Amid the discussion about the moral and ethical questions surrounding the development of the various vaccines, Bishop Kevin Rhoades, chairman of the U.S. Conference of … [Read more...] about Pro-Life Leaders Assess Concerns About the Use of Abortion-Derived Cell Lines in Coronavirus Vaccines

(CNN) The American Medical Association (AMA) recently made the news for its stance on institutional racism, and not in a good way. The longtime editor in chief of the association's flagship journal, Dr. Howard Bauchner, was put on administrative leave after JAMA tweeted, "No physician is racist, so how can there be structural racism in health care?" The now-deleted tweet promoted a podcast in which JAMA's deputy editor Dr. Ed Livingston said, "Structural racism … [Read more...] about Under fire on race, the AMA should drop its support for the war on drugs
