The Commie mayor of New York has determined the city is on a financial crisis worse than 2008. Solution..increase taxes in the rich and profitable companies.

🚨 BREAKING: Mayor Mamdani Warns of Great Recession Scale Economic Collapse in NYC 🚨

New York City is bracing for a financial earthquake. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has officially declared that the city is facing a fiscal crisis "greater than the Great Recession," signaling a radical shift in the city's economic policy. 🏛️🏙️📉

Mayor Mamdani stated bluntly that NYC is entering a fiscal emergency at a scale not seen since 2008, requiring "every single avenue" to address the shortfall.

The Mayor’s primary solution is a massive tax hike, specifically "raising taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers and the most profitable corporations."

Mamdani also called for "recalibrating the relationship with the state" to secure more funding for the city's failing budget.

Critics are labeling the plan as "classic commie math"—taxing the very producers who fuel the economy until they flee the city, leaving the remaining taxpayers to foot the bill.

Many warn that Mamdani’s approach is a "ride to bankruptcy," as the city’s wealthiest residents and companies have already begun looking for the exit.

This fiscal collapse follows the pattern of "professionalized" radicalism seen in cities like Minneapolis, where radical leaders use social and financial crises to push anti-capitalist agendas.

Supporters of the administration are already warning New Yorkers to "demand receipts" when Mamdani inevitably tries to blame the President for the city's self-inflicted financial wounds.

While Mamdani pushes for higher taxes, the federal mandate remains focused on economic growth, which currently sits at 5.5%—a reality that contrasts sharply with NYC's "Great Recession" narrative.


Common sense, voters get the leaders they deserve.

The fvcking audacity of these sycophants trying to gain entry into a foreign consulate in the name of ICE. They literally needed to be told they cannot enter?

Armed agents trying to forcefully enter a foreign consulate, is an act of war.

These animals are completely out of control.

Anti-ICE protests continue in Minnesota over illegal migrant criminals being detained and deported.
Those protests often turn into riots - intensified by the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good - two armed agitators who were k*lled by federal agents.

(Pretti had a 9mm, while Good allegedly used her SUV as a weapon when she allegedly tried to run over an agent)

However, many are pointing out that there were no protests, no riots and no democrat press conferences when young American citizens were killed at the hands of illegal migrants.
Here are a few of the many victims of migrant crime:

Virginia University Hospital Nurse FAFO


https://www.ksnblocal4.com/2026/01/28/nurse-fired-posting-videos-which-she-talked-about-targeting-ice-agents-with-anesthetics-reports-say/
RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT/Gray News) —
A nurse in Virginia has been fired after she posted TikTok videos that were critical of federal immigration operations, according to reports.

In a statement, Virginia Commonwealth University Health said it was made aware of the videos Tuesday.

VCU Health called the videos “highly inappropriate” and said they “do not reflect the integrity or values of our health system.”

Later that day, VCU Health updated its statement to say the person was no longer employed.

Another brainwashed has been fired and her medical licence suspended in Florida .She made a vile statement about WH Spox , Leavitt who is pregnant
Alexis Lawler, who was recently fired from Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital, is now using the chaos in Minnesota to shield herself from accountability. She dismissed the outrage over her own words as people "coming after her for bad language," completely ignoring the reality that she wished permanent bodily harm on a patient.

Her original comments were nothing short of demonic. As a medical professional, she stated it gave her "great joy" to wish a "fourth-degree tear" on Leavitt, hoping she would "never shit normally again." This is the person who was trusted with the lives of mothers and newborns.

Lawler’s claim that she is "on the right side of this" suggests she believes her political hatred justifies violating the most basic ethical standards of the medical field. She continues to use profanity-laced tirades to defend a position that most sane Americans find predatory and unhinged.


The hatred is mainly fueled by the media.

Same thing in the UK. Pakistani gangs conducted an organized and sustained campaign of forcible sex against White women over a period of 30 years or so, mainly in Labor Party controlled cities.

The Labor Party politicians impeded and blocked police investigations because they didn’t want to appear RACIST.

The current Prime Minister initially refused to conduct a national investigation, he had to be beaten over the head. I don't think the inquiry has ever held because of process disputes.

It's a sickness. I'll look into this Columbia story.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Raumdeuter talking to Basilico calling other people evil.
Ha, you're talking to a guy who has never set foot in the US, yet thinks white people are better than black people and has never met a depraved Trump conspiracy he won't endorse.
What's that expression, "show me your friends and I'll show you who you are".

Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by IbeOkehie:
A growing trade deficit is generally a sign of a robust economy. This is very well known among economists.

https://www.google.com/search?q=john+grubbs+A+Symptom+of+Wealth-+Why+Trade+Deficits+Attract+the+World%E2

Let’s start with the basics: the U.S. trade deficit isn’t destroying the economy or part of some secretive international conspiracy. It’s not a crisis—it's accounting.

A trade deficit means we import more stuff than we export. That's it. Contrary to the alarmist headlines, this isn’t a sign of weakness—it's a SYMPTOM OF WEALTH. The U.S. is rich, growing, and in high demand. The dollars that flow abroad don’t vanish into thin air; they circle right back as investments into our economy. Foreigners hold U.S. stocks, bonds, real estate, and intellectual property because, quite frankly, there’s nowhere safer for them to park capital.
Here's something from Harvard Business Review -

https://hbr.org/2018/07/why-the-u-s-trade-deficit-can-be-a-sign-of-a-healthy-economy

However, if the U.S. economy keeps growing at 3%–4% a year with close to zero structural unemployment, nothing that President Trump accomplishes on the front of making trade fairer for U.S. goods exporters will do a thing to reduce the U.S. deficit in traded goods, which is his avowed goal. In 2017 robust U.S. economic growth widened the capital flow surplus — and unsurprisingly, the goods trade deficit widened in step.
Here's a Google Gemini review -

https://www.google.com/search?q=is+a+trade+deficit+a+sign+of+prosperity&rlz=1C1NDCM_enUS837US837&oq=is+a+trade+deficit+a+sign+of+prosperity+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIKCAEQABiABBiiBDIKCAIQABiABBiiBDIHCAMQABjvBTIKCAQQABiiBBiJBTIKCAUQABiABBiiBNIBCTI0MjE2ajBqOagCALACAfEFKa_KUCCACW0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I know I've written about this multiple times. Tariffs are bad for the world in general, but governments use it and other tactics like ECONOMIC SANCTIONS as instruments of coercion or to get some kind of advantage.

WARS are bad for the world in general, but governments use military force to achieve certain policy goals and objectives.

For the United States, tariffs and sales tax are better than INCOME & WEALTH TAXES, which stifle economic growth & productivity and promote corruption.

Tariffs in a free market economy PROMOTE domestic productivity and preserve jobs. Note the distinction, bolded for emphasis. That's why the more socialist oriented European Union and Canada are economically stagnant compared to the USA.

That is why Nigeria, a nation of high and capricious tariffs, is the Poverty Capital of the World...because it ALSO operates a FEUDAL-SOCIALIST economic system.

Anyway,

Good Luck to Nigerians.

She should have reported and seek justice for them by protesting for their freedom.

Well, let's give it a little more time. Who knows for sure whether or not some policy goals aren't being achieved?

If the sanctions aren't working, then that might be the reason why Trump is turning to military force. There must be some reason Russia & China aren't responding too strongly to the USA attack on Venezuela. Iran is being targeted or harassed...again.

Good Luck to Nigerians.
