We’re getting close to our July 4th, 250th anniversary. Which means we should all be thinking and talking about the greatest sentence in the English language and probably in all history: "That all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." That sentence is the epitome of freedom and our natural rights. And that we don’t work for government bureaucrats, they work for us.
Even more, we don’t work for big government socialists, or still worse, we don’t work for big government socialist communist bureaucrats. None of the above. At the moment however, it seems like the Democratic Party is endowed by antisemitic Mamdani socialists or communists.
There’s a New York Post article that Mayor Zohran Mamdani actually admitted on one of the Sunday talk shows that his anti-Israel fervor truly helped secure their New York City election sweep. And then he went on in the interview to repeat his opposition to Israel as a Jewish-led state. Of course he does. His hatred of and bigotry toward Jews is well known. It animates his whole movement. And I believe that movement is also anti-American.
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, endowed by our Creator, is exactly the reverse of what Mr. Mamdani is trying to pull off. Our Founding Fathers strove for equality and prosperity through hard work and individual initiative unencumbered by oppressive taxes or monarchical government.
Here’s what President Trump said yesterday: "I think it is a big threat to our nation, actually, because it’s not socialism, it’s really communism." He added that: "They used the word social democrat because it sounds so nice, but it’s really communism you’re talking about. I think it’s the biggest threat to our nation there is, maybe since our founding, that includes World War I, World War II, September 11th. It includes the Pearl Harbor attack."
So this is serious business. The president is completely right. And in case you’ve forgotten, the Democratic Socialists of America wish to abolish the United States Senate, defund the military, defund the police, open borders, and universal amnesty for illegal immigrants.
They want a national takeover of large companies. Free-government everything including health care and abortion. Criminals can vote. Stack the Supreme Court and confiscatory taxation of wealth and income. And end Israel. And, by the way, persecute Jewish people right here in New York City as well as across the country. July 4th is coming. God bless America. Yet this Mamdani-ism is not life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
