We will fight for you because we are you, or.

As we say on Steinway and am InCom.

Wileykum Hi, this is a Culter.

Welcome to my Ricochet podcast.

Link to my substack and Culter dot substack dot com.

I just got back from London, So I went from a city with one communist Muslim to a city that is just elected a communist Muslim.

Things are coming up roses for me, so I thought i'd start.

First story.

Will be a few comments on the mayor elect of New York City's Zorhan Momdanni elected as I'm sure you know, mostly by the foreign born.

Uh So, don't tell me Europe is worse off than we are because they have more terrorist Muslims.

Yes, every once in a while, Well you'll hear about some of those stories.

Today.

You'll have a Rolex stolen, there'll be a stabbing, maybe even maybe even driving into a Christmas market.

But immigration to this country, we've been enriching ourselves so much longer, and this is what happens.

First we lost California and now we're heading or losing Nevada.

We've lost Virginia, We've lost New York City, I mean, just city after a new Mexico, gone Arizona going purple.

Colorado that is entirely because of immigration used to be a very conservative state.

So the problem is you're going to have a country that is run by Zorhan Mom Damis haha, hope you like it, those of you who have been pushing mass third world immigration.

Point one I want to make about Mum Dami.

Oh my gosh, was I right?

You should have listened to me.

The world would work so much better if rich people just hung on my every word.

As soon as Cuomo lost the Democratic primary, you may recall I wrote a column a linket on my sub stack to this this podcast saying rich people have got to in New York who care about the state of New York have got to get Curtissliwa and Andrew Cuomo to drop out.

They are utterly completely unelectable.

Yes, the New York Times isn't a little snit with Eric Adams, our current mayor for a few more months.

And yeah, he was a little corrupt, I mean compared to most black mayors.

Was like Jimmy Stewart.

He brought in his homies.

They did a bit bad job.

The New York Times and prosecutors went after him.

Trump kind of had his thumb on Adams, so you'd get the Trump voters, you'd get the black voters.

That's about a third of New York City.

They liked Adams.

And there were just too many reasons to hate Andrew Cuomo as if everybody could, you could pick your favorite reason to hate him.

He was in part responsible for the financial crisis really destroying the economy.

When was that back in two thousand and eight?

Because as head of Hyde, this is a big it's like classic mom dommy thinking.

Rich people live in nice homes, so if we give people poor people nice homes, they too will be successful.

No, I think, yeah, that cart before the horse there.

But he was as head of HUD really pushed this liars loan on the banks, forcing banks to accept things literally like unemployment benefits as collateral to put down a home.

Those mortgages got mixed in distributed by by Fannie May to all of the banks, and housing market goes down.

That blows up the entire economy.

That's it in a nutshell.

And Cuomo probably more than almost anyone else, was responsible for that.

COVID, how about COVID and the lives he destroyed in COVID.

Not just the old people.

He killed, the businesses, he destroyed the children whose brains he and psychological development he stunted for no reason whatsoever.

It is another column I wrote about his main assistant, if their name is Melissa d Rosa wrote a really appalling book bragging about what a dictator CuMo was during during COVID.

It would be one thing to write about it if we didn't know that every single thing he did was wrong.

He was the one I thought it was de Blasio.

No Deblasio wanted to keep the schools open in New York City.

So Cuomo just goes on radio and announces schools will be closed tomorrow.

But pressure closed all the colleges.

That more in New York State colleges put pressure on other colleges to close.

Made Trump send up you know that that that boat, and open up, open up the Javits Center, send cops and workers for this overflow of people.

Yeah, they remained empty, and a few months later there was like one person.

I think seven people had gone through the Jabbet Center, you know, special emergency hospital the entire time it was opened.

So that was just a huge waste of millions of dollars put pressure on upstate hospitals to send their ventilators to New York City.

They're saying, no, no, we can't.

We have people who actually meet ventilators.

And Cuomo said, I'll come after you.

These are private hospitals.

I will come after you.

I will pull your accreditation if you do not send your ventil lators to New York.

Uh huh.

Guess what we learned, lady later.

It was the ventilators that were killing people.

It was the worst thing you could do.

Now, Okay, people didn't know that at the time, but that's why you don't want to give dictatorial powers to one man like Cuomo.

When the argument for Cuomo comes down to, as one article put it this way, woman wrote a column saying Cuomo killed my husband.

I just voted for him.

It reminds me of that great argument Republicans had for for re electing Nead my lips, no new taxes George H.

W.

Bush, which was you see bumper stickers saying annoy the media, vote Bush.

When your only argument is, yes, this guy absolutely sucks, but the alternative is word.

That point can be made a lot more clearly when you have an incumbent, then the question is it's what you have now or something way way worse.

Things aren't that bad under Adams, not as bad as they're going to be under under mom dmy.

A lot of people have been saying to me, you got to get out of New York.

And with this communist, he's going to freeze rent.

If you're renting anything out, you're gonna lose money.

He'll confiscate your property, so on and so forth.

No, No, as usual when communists come to power, the rich are going to do great.

It's the middle class.

It's the the up and comers, the aspiring middle class, the kids, the young people, the young people who put them into office.

So I say ha ha ha ha to them.

They will suffer the most.

Why does mom dummy's rent freeze?

Assuming he can do it, there are limits to what he can do.

Why will that up the rich?

Half of all rental units in New York are the rent stabilized or rent control departments.

That means only half of the housing stock that's up for rent cannot be touched by this rental freeze.

All ready, and this audience probably knows economists right and left all say, rent control limits the stock and drives prices up of housing.

People don't build housing because they can't make their money back.

Then the price goes up because there's less housing available.

So here we already have landlords of rent control departments just abandoning because they're taxes, the cost of repairs, the costs of maintenance, water insurance.

They have to hire their own lawyers to evict, to evictate non paying tenant.

Whereas there are all these tenant activist groups defending the free loaders, you already have landlords just losing all the money they put into an apartment just have to walk away with a rent freeze that is only going to get worse, which means landlords who are renting out the other half of the rental stock their housing will become more and more valuable because it will be the only game in town.

They'll be able to charge through the nose.

It's also the case that one more of his great ideas to make buses free and to put homeless shelters in the subways.

I as you know, I already do not take the subway, but some people have to.

Some people don't have drivers taking them around, and the buses are just going to become movable homeless shelters and criminal shelters.

They'll just be sleeping on the mugging people as they step on.

The buses will be unusable as it is half the people don't pay for the bus anyway, subways, you will be going down into the inner circle of Hell with homeless shelters in the subway stations.

I hope this is something he cannot do without the governor and the legislature's approval.

But apparently Kathy Hochele, the New York State governor, needs his approval, so she may be a pushover on some of these completely insane ideas.

Let's see, okay points three.

Oh yeah, this is the most important one.

He really, really really hates the police.

He did have to say crime is so important, it is so important to every single person that's in the last mayoral debates.

Long Dommy did have to promise that he would keep Adam's police commissioner so that people wouldn't get too afraid that their lives were about to become death wish, which they will.

So let's hope she stays on.

But it is certain that policing will go down and crime will go up.

He hates the police.

He wants to replace police with social workers.

He wants to take money, an enormous amount of money out of the police force.

He will not have.

The police is back, police will be leaving, will be retiring a lot more.

And who just cryme hurt the most, obviously the people who don't have enough money to protect themselves.

And that's a lot of money in New York City.

I'll have a little bit more on his genius idea on social workers a couple of points down.

Hey, folks, James Lynox here reminding you this is November.

Of course you knew that already, right, and you're a little bit relieved because we've got some time before Thanksgiving.

And Thanksgiving itself, it's just one day.

There's big, no songs, there's no gift giving all the rest of it.

It's just eating its pie, it's football, it's great, it's fun.

Hey.

But December is right around the corner, and that means gift giving season, and that means you give somebody something that they like, something that they're going to enjoy, is going to enhance their life.

Not a sweater, not a sucks, not a gift getting out of a subscription to after Shave or Hot says, get them ricochet.

The gift of Ricochet will enable them to enter a community that will speak to whatever they want to speak to, and provide them with a new set of friends at a fresh place to go on the internet.

So this November, do the smart thing.

Well, you know, get ricochete yourself, but then think about getting it for a friend.

Am I gonna bug you about that next month?

I am.

My second story is fantastic article in Real Clear Investigations, a report on the New York Attorney General Leticia James's relentless attack on v dare the immigration restrictionist website.

I'm sure you've heard me mentioned before.

It's run by Peter brimilau Bridge, guy who wrote the blockbuster book Alien Nation.

I think it's worth mentioning that the Conservative movement, back when it was ossified, stultifying, and I was a young pop there were two things.

Since tariffs are in the news right now, Conservatives were supposed to considering consider the Smooth Holly Act, you know, the equivalent of enacting Nazism and and oh immigration, and it's our strength.

It took people like Peter Brimolow and pap Ukeanan coming along to blow up both of those points.

But boy did Brimolou do it with his nineteen ninety five book Alien Nation.

I'll play a clip of him talking about it on c SPAN.

When you take this position in public, what's the general reaction in this country?

Oh, well, it depends where you take it.

It's an issue where there's a chasm between the leadership, the political leadership and the intellectual leadership of the country and the people at large.

Immigrations massively and fantastically unpopular in the country at large.

It's not at all unusual for me to be on a talk show and have one hundred percent supportive cause.

But with the media elite, it's become sort of an icon.

So I get, you know, very savage reviews.

If it wasn't for electronic media, I would probably been quite serious trouble.

He's been asking me to write about this outrageous law fare against v there.

They finally had to just shut down the website last summer because they couldn't pay the legal bills.

No action had been brought, no accusations had been made, but the Attorney General's office just kept issuing subpoena after subpoena after subpoena, They're legal fees skyrocketed.

They couldn't keep paying it, so they said, okay, uncle, we're just going to shut the website down.

And it was a great website.

There's really no daylights between Donald Trump's position on immigration, i e.

A majority of the American people and vdair's position on immigration.

So I couldn't write about this because it made me too angry.

There are very few issues that I'm just too angry about that I can't write about.

And also what was kind of complicated.

I left the law for a reason and I really didn't want to figure out what was going on.

So there's a great report in Real Clear Investigations.

God bless us guy James Varney, obviously very smart who went to Lawrenceville, oh And graduated from Wesleyan.

It's probably the only conservative there and the Columbia School of Journalism really really great article.

I'm going to link to that too, But the highlights from the Real Clear Investigation report.

The battle has been that Letitia James's office has been going after V Day.

There for is v DARE, which stands at for Virginia Dare the first European born on the American continent.

What is is about a castle that VDARE bought?

Uh and I happen to know why they bought what they bought a castle for those of us who followed V there written and read V there.

Every once in a while they try to throw a conference.

That's what publications do.

We can gather and talk about how much immigrants are enriching us.

And more than a dozen times they would be booked at hotel.

They would have attendees coming, they would have collected money, they had speakers, they had rooms, they were ready to go, and Antifa and liberal protesters would call him threaten to bomb the hotel.

A mayor of College out of Spring said, we're not going to send the police.

We're not going to send the fire department to this hotel or conference under whatever it was, we are not going to give them protection.

If you allow VDRE to have a conference here, Pete's sake, you think it was the clan again, it's people who support Donald Trump on immigration.

So they couldn't.

They couldn't kept trying to hold conferences.

They kept having to get it closed down.

The only the only way they were making money was, you know, getting getting the the the kill fee from these various resorts.

So they think, Okay, there's this beautiful landmarks castle in West Virginia, we buy it.

Not only do we have a place to hold our conferences, really difficult for Antifa to even get there and also be on it, so we're not going to shut down the conference.

And also they rented out for weddings and make more money for v there.

So according to the Attorney General, she made a lot of claims, Oh, this is a charity, you're not allowed to use it to buy this castle.

There's a scam, blah blah blah.

So James Varney goes through the details of the case that we're too boring for me to go through, but there are these these these crucial paragraphs from his investigation.

First, Varney goes through all the allegations against vid Air and then presents it to a charity watchdog group.

As he says here without citing this case or naming specific nonprofits because of the political nature of the case, real clear investigations.

Ask charity Watch, a prominent nonprofit watchdog, whether these sorts of transactions raise red flags.

A charity Watch representative said they are common, so there are no complaints from the irs.

There are no complaints from West Virginia.

There are no complaints from the donors to be there, So why was New York State pursuing this?

And this is the key part of the real clear Investigations article.

One obvious clue is contained in the filing of the original civil complaint.

Letitia James and James Shehan, chief of the state's Cheeries Bureau, are listed first, but right below them is Megan Fou, a longtime progressive lawyer whose title is quote Chief Deputy Attorney General for Social Justice.

Another attorney listed in the filing of the case was Rick Sawyer, who in twenty twenty two headed the New York Attorney General's Hate Crimes and Biased Prevention Ranch.

November of that year, at an anti defamation lead conference, this is how he laid out his prosecutorial strategy.

He said he would use his office would use subpoenas to address quote, hate speech.

While acknowledging that hate is protected in the US Constitution.

The First Amendment protects hate, he said, but that should be no deterrent to aggressive tactics against those alleged to engage in it.

Here This full paragraph is a quote from him.

Attorney General's offices have massive amounts of power in New York.

We have subpoena authority for any kind of hate crime, subpoena power against charity.

And this is before we even file a lawsuit.

By the way, we can get massive amounts of discovery without even having to go to court, which is actually true.

They finally, after years of harassing VDARE, they finally filed their civil suit last month.

It worked.

The IRS records show that vdair's legal bill skyrocketed, jumping quickly to about two hundred thousand dollars a year, and in twenty twenty three hit more than half a million dollars a year.

So they couldn't they couldn't keep keep paying the legal fees.

The only thing I'd add to this excellent report is that the NRA.

You may recall when a free speech case against New York State a different a different official just last year for harassing them, using the power of the state to squelch the NRA on they argued because of their speech.

It was a little bit more of a more circuitous and interestingly enough, Justice Katanji Brown Jackson, Oh, this was a nine zero decision, by the way, by the Supreme Court.

Justice Katanji Brown Jackson wrote a concurrence in which she cited V.

De Air's case against Colorado Springs, the one I just mentioned to you three times, saying it was a much stronger case than the NRA case.

Yees, some lawyer has got to pursue this case and take it to the Supreme Court.

It's really outrageous.

What is being done to be there.

My third story, I have some enrichment in France and the UK.

First in France, so both from this week.

Driver plows into crowd on French holiday island.

Too critically injured after man hits pedestrians and cyclists.

Why how did this come about?

First sentence, A driver shouting alaulbar has plowed his car into a crowd of pedestrians on a French holiday island.

Five people were hit during the thirty five minute rampage.

Two were seriously injured.

The suspect, a thirty five year old man from the island, has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.

He is known to the police.

He intentionally set fire to his vehicle after ramming pedestrians and cyclists before being stopped by the police.

My second enrichment is from the UK.

This has a slightly happier ending.

Migrants snatched thirty eight thousand pounds rolex from a tourist Rich Moroccan.

A courter Alion Snocy twenty two claimed he was sixteen when he arrived in the country in February.

Keep that in mind when we hear about the Dreamers and how old they were when they allegedly came into the country illegally.

How on earth is that going to be checked.

They're all lying about their age now, much less this mysterious date when they claimed a snuck across our border.

Anyway.

April twentieth, he followed Wolfsang Huong, who was visiting from Hong Kong, through Market Meuse in Mayfair.

Mayfair, really nice area, before grabbing him from behind and wrenching the designer watch from his wrist.

Every time before I go to London, and when I am in London, every single person tells me, don't wear a watch.

Don't wear a watch.

Before I went there.

This summer guy came out of a restaurant, also in a nice area Knightsbridge, wearing a Rolex h and a migrant stabbed him to death and didn't even get the Rolex.

It's a place you any place, would walk all the time.

It was early, he had just had dinner with his friend.

Anyway, sentencing the Moroccan here, I love this judge.

Judge Gregory Prinz said to thief Rolex, thief and liar.

You have done your best to manipulate the court proceedings.

You dishonestly told the court that you were sixteen.

You provided a false birth certificate.

You did that in a deliberate attempt to obtain a lighter sentence.

You came to this country illegally in February twenty twenty five.

You claim to be acting under duress when you committed this offense.

I make it plain that I completely reject that account.

There is simply no evidence to support what you said.

Oh, he was assisted in court by an Arabic interpreter.

When I was writing Adios America, that was the only way I could find out that the criminals were for and born.

I've been searched in Nexus for the word translator or interpreter, because oh my gosh, they will not tell you in the body of the story.

In any event, he was sentenced to eighteen months in prison.

He'll have to serve forty percent in custody.

But the judge said, given the length of the sentence and that you are here illegally, it is inevitable that you will be deported.

I anticipate that when you have served your forty percent, you will be detained until appropriate flights can be arranged.

Okay, Britain's you better hope Nigel Ferrange is your Prime Minister by then, because I'm thinking those flights aren't going to be arranged otherwise.

My fourth story for you is our greatest Strength in New York City, because this relates to Mondami's great idea to replace the police with social workers.

From the New York Times.

This week, drunk driver who killed four at Manhattan pic is convicted of murder.

Now this is the show's stopper.

Daniel Hyden, who was a substance abuse counselor, had written a book about sobriety.

He crashed his pickup truck through a fence and into a barbecue.

Apparently he was totally liquored up.

A self described wellness advocate and substance abuse counselor, who drunkenly crashed his pickup truck into a Fourth of July barbecue on the Lower east Side last year, killing four people, was convicted of murder Monday.

The man, Daniel Hayden Heiden, forty six, had been kicked out of a bar before he lost control of his Ford f one point fifty, rammed through a fence at Courlier's Hook Park and crushed the victims.

Prosecutor said seven others were injured.

At a news conference on Monday, Alvin Bragg, the manhattanist attorney, said mister Heiden's actions were irresponsible, callous, and criminals.

Okay, what's weird about this is the drunk driver is black, so it's surprising that that Alvin Bragg prosecuted him.

Also weird is the New York Times showed his picture.

Even after he hit eleven people, he was still revving the engine.

Mister Bragg said the car only stopped because it was on top of human beings.

The very sad story your woman.

The Ruezes.

Mister Luez comes out, sees his his daughter pinned underneath a pickup truck on the under the bleachers and says, I just thought I'm watching my daughter die right now.

It's very sad story.

The reason I mentioned this is part of Mom Damie's fantastic idea is the violence interrupters.

This is one of the social worker ideas that that mom Donny and his friends thought up late at night in a dorm room, and it looked great on paper.

But what they do is they get former gang members and pay them to walk around the street so that if they see trouble erupting, they're supposed to say, hey, man, don't shoot that guy.

Well, in fact, most of the time they're saying, don't shoot that guy.

He's in my gang, shoot the guy in red.

We're mostly just paying criminals to hang around the street and commit more crimes, but we're paying them for it.

You want a violence interrupter, they're known as the police.

My fifth story for you, oh man, Carl Rove and the Wall Street Journal won't give up on a mess third world immigration.

They so do not want their sons to have to pick tomatoes or or or make beds.

They'll remember that was Carl Roave's excuse for a mass amnesty.

I don't want my son having to pick tomato.

Patos great news.

We got robots and artificial intelligence.

That excuse isn't gonna fly anymore.

But anyway, in the Wall Street Journal this week, after an absolutely disastrous election night for Republicans, thank you foreign born and my gender wasn't my idea to give women the vote?

And I would have heatedly protested had I been around in any event, this is what Carl Rove writes in the Wall Street Journal this week.

To turn this around, the White House will need to focus on the economy and the cost of livings, be candidly about challenges, lower expectations, temper the rhetoric under promise, over delivered, Okay, a bunch of cliches, and stop going too far, like with immigration and customs enforcement roundups at home depot.

No that is massively popular, unlike unpopular things privatizing social security, the Iraq War, those great Bush Rove ideas.

I can't say this enough.

I have the polls for you in Adios America to prove to you.

I'm telling you the truth.

Bush got absolutely wiped out in his second midterm election.

So he's re elected two thousand and four, two thousand and six, wiped out.

We lost governors, we lost House, we lost the Senate, we lost.

If you think Tuesday Night was bad, two thousand and six mid terms were an absolute catastrophe.

And why was that?

No, it wasn't because of the Iraq War, as liberals like to claim.

It was their heroic opposition that was that was one.

It was still worth fighting the Iraq War.

Not twenty years later.

Bush's most unpopular policy was not the Iraq War.

It was his proposal to amnesty illegals, or so it was described past comprehensive immigration reform.

This was after he was re elected in two thousand and four.

So I think you know, their spidey sense told them, Wow, this is an unpopular policy.

Let's jam it down Conservative's throat.

Bush.

It's also worth mentioning was the first president to give weekly at radio addresses in Spanish.

He added a Spanish language page to the White House website because it's great.

Having immigrants really helps with their integration into the community, their ability to know what they're voting for, to assimilate when they don't speak the language.

He campaigned in America, Bush did with Mexico's president, and stunningly, he gave speeches to the racist National Council of LaRaza, meaning the race try to start an organization called the Race for White People.

In any event, he promised LaRaza one hundred million in federal funds to help speed immigration applications, and still Bush couldn't win a majority of the spanks.

I think, as we saw this Tuesday, Hispanics will just keep going back to voting.

Well, they voted majority Democrat even for Trump.

He just slightly increased the percentage of the Hispanic vote he got.

And I bet most of you listening to that right now do not know that you think Trump got a majority of the Hispanic vote.

He did not.

As always, the only way Republicans win is with the white vote.

Oh my gosh, everyone's speaking how it am said the word white.

It was in March.

I think it was March two thousand and six.

The election year.

We're months away from the intern election.

Bush rules out his great idea for comprehensive immigration reformed.

The conservative base instantly turned against it.

It was huge go back and check newspapers at the time.

When the two thousand election came around a few months later, only seventy seven percent of conservatives voted Republican, compared with ninety one percent of liberals.

Who voted Democrat.

In addition to that, there are actual polls showing people were more opposed to Bush because of his promotion of amnesty than because of the Iraq War.

There are a million Pew polls.

It showed that it was very high.

First year, it goes down to fifty percent, and then basically the rest of third year to year, you know, one hundred and six, it stayed around forty percent.

So that was support for the Iraq War.

Meanwhile, a Washington Post ABC News poll in April two thousand and six, this is a month after he started President Bush w starts pushing his amnesty showed more Americans approved of Bush's handling of the Iraq War than approved of his handling of immigration.

In nearly every poll on Bush's handling of immigration that year, about sixty percent of the public disapproved, with only twenty five percent approving, giving us a rough estimate of how many Americans read the Wall Street Journal.

You can try saying, oh, that's because they wanted him to What else could you want from this guy?

No, you cannot say they disapproved because they wanted the amnesty even faster.

He was doing everything he could to pass amnesty.

Ie comprehensive immigration reform, and I think Bill would end with that.

Whenever you get mad at Trump, just remember he ended the Bush family's legacy.

Thank you.

To talk to you next week.

Ricochet.

Yeah, join the conversation.
