Eric Adams For Mayor

By Mike Huckabee

Sadly for New York’s future, the Democratic mayoral primary is pretty much the determining factor for who’s going to be mayor, since New Yorkers seem determined that they’d rather live in a crime-ridden pigsty run by a Democrat than a clean, safe, successful city run by a Republican (and it isn’t as if they hadn’t had very recent A-B comparisons to go by.)

The silver lining is that if New York City is to have another Democrat Mayor, at least it soon won’t be Bill DeBlasio…or anyone like him. After a drawn-out process that involved the election officials “accidentally” counting over 130,000 invalid test ballots, the winner is former NYPD Captain Eric Adams, who opposes DeBlasio’s disastrous “defund the police” stance and is the most law-and-order candidate of the bunch -- proving that even New York liberals can learn, if they just get hit in the head by robbers and gang members enough times.

Also proving that New Yorkers are wising up a little is that the most DeBlasio-like candidate, his far-left legal counsel Maya Wiley, (who’s all for defunding the police while her own neighborhood is protected by private security) came nowhere close. Naturally, she had the full-throated endorsement of AOC, but didn’t even win AOC’s district.

AFT President Defends CRT

By Mike Huckabee

The president of the American Federation of Teachers union defended Critical Race Theory and threatened legal action against states that try to prevent schools from teaching “honest history.”

https://redstate.com/jeffc/2021/07/06/teachers-union-president-threatens-legal-action-against-anti-critical-race-theory-laws-n407415

If CRT were “honest history,” there would be no problem. Most parents have no issue with their kids learning that there were bad things in our history, including slavery and Jim Crow laws. But it isn’t honest to claim that America’s entire foundation is built on racism and oppression, or that children should be classified as victims or oppressors by their skin color, or that people today are personally responsible for the actions of people who lived 200 years ago.

CRT not only promotes and perpetuates racism, it’s built on twisted, cherry-picked and outright false "history." If the AFT president thinks that’s “honest history,” then she not only shouldn’t be running a teacher’s union, she shouldn’t be allowed within two blocks of a school zone.


Speech Restrictions On Facebook

By Mike Huckabee

Facebook announced even more restrictions on speech, which you can find detailed at some length here:

Hope you like cat videos, photos of people’s lunches and stories about President Biden’s favorite ice cream flavors because those may soon be the only things you’ll be allowed to post on Facebook.

Good News On The Employment Front

By Mike Huckabee

Some Democrats from the political world are finally finding private sector jobs.

Tucker Carlson/NSA Update

By Mike Huckabee

The latest on Tucker Carlson’s accusations about the NSA allegedly spying on his private emails. He says they planned to leak the emails and try to frame him as a Russian agent because he was trying to land an interview with Vladimir Putin.

Also, the NSA’s adamant denials seem to be based on what the meaning of “spying” is.

A Tough Question

By Mike Huckabee

Stop The Presses! The unthinkable has happened! An A.P. reporter not only asked a tough question of a Biden Administration official, but when he tried to weasel out and deflect the question, drilled down and quoted facts to his face that proved he was spouting garbage.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/ap-reporter-stuns-biden-state-department-spokesperson-during-press-briefing

Now, I can die a happy man because I’ve seen everything.

Related: The Washington Post’s fact-checker, after a long delay and an attempt to deflect blame on Republicans, finally admitted that the White House is lying when it claims it was Republicans who defunded the police. He gave Biden’s people “Three Pinocchios” instead of the hair-on-fire, jaw-on-the-ground, Double-Whopper-with-extra-cheese “Four Pinocchio” liar designation that they deserve. But at least it’s baby steps toward facing reality about these people.

    My thought - for the parts of our society that have forever returned Democrats to office I was thinking that our team should look, in depth, at those candidates with an eye toward voting for the one that best matched their views. It would, of course, be a challenge but over time it would lead possibly to better governance.
    If the trajectory of party affiliation changes enough that a Conservative would stand a chance - this could / would be easily changed.
    For example the next election in New York with the retired police Captain heading for the office of Mayor - he would do something about the defunding problem. 'The right direction.'

    Dear Mr. Huckabee,
    An investigation needs to start immediately to find out who is behind the scam that is being pulled on our Country. We know that someone besides Biden is running the Country! This is the biggest con in history, and I want to know who is behind it, and I want something to be done about it, so that this can never happen again! This is too dangerous to let go. We deserve to know what is really going on. Please do something. Thank you.

    Regards to " Speech Restrictions On Facebook ". I am not on social media, but the last I knew you the subscriber can block anybody anything you do not like or want. Silly Democrats, even high school kids in my neighborhood know that.

    Thanks so much for that clip catching the Biden Administration flat footed in their usual LIES, in this case, pertaining to international agreements that were set up by the Trump Administration that the Biden Administration has walked away from.
    Why don't we start calling Biden and his underlings what they wrongly accused President Trump of for his entire time in office - LIARS!!!!????? This is what the Democrats, along with their proteges, have been all along, BLAMING OTHERS FALSELY WHILE DOING IT THEMSELVES!
    HYPOCRYTES!!!!!

    I'm not a union expert, only belong to one for a short time. But I thought unions job was to protect workers right, not define what teachers teach. That should be left up to school boards and most of all the parents
