New in PJ Media:
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s version of “Let’s Go, Brandon” is “Let’s Go, Bills.”
You remember the sportscaster who tried, during the dark days of the Biden regime, to make people think that chants of “F**k Joe Biden” at a car race were really cheers of “Let’s Go, Brandon” for auto racer Brandon Brown. Now Hochul is trying to explain away the hostile reception she encountered from a gang of socialist Zohran Mamdani supporters in a similar way: she claims that these green-haired commies were suddenly breaking into chants of “Let’s Go, Bills,” presumably to celebrate the Buffalo Bills’ resounding 40-9 victory over the Carolina Panthers earlier that day.
Sure, and I’m Uncle Joe Stalin.
Hochul’s endorsement of Mamdani’s candidacy to be the next mayor of New York City on Sunday night should have been a routine political exercise. Instead, it has turned into an embarrassing mess for the governor, not just because Mamdani has gracelessly refused to endorse Hochul in return, but also because the crowd at the Mamdani rally where Hochul gave her backing to the Muslim socialist front-runner was decidedly unfriendly to her, and kept erupting in chants of “Tax the rich!”
Although Hochul and Mamdani are not really all that far apart politically, and both are decidedly in favor of soaking the people who are productive in order to enable as many people as possible not to be productive, this chant embarrassed Hochul, as it was clearly meant to do. The New York Post reported Sunday that Hochul “was berated by hecklers screaming ‘tax the rich!’ as she took the stage at Zohran Mamdani’s packed mayoral rally in Queens Sunday night, forcing the headlining candidate to come out early to quell the unrelenting crowd.”
The “tax the rich” chant is a taunt of Hochul because last June, she criticized Mamdani’s plan to do just that, saying: “I’m not raising taxes at a time where affordability is the big issue. I don’t want to lose any more people to Palm Beach. We’ve lost enough.”
Yet she endorsed the mediagenic young communist anyway, thereby indicating the real depth of her opposition to his confiscatory policies, and tried to save face by claiming utter befuddlement about the socialist taunt that the Mamdani crowd directed at her. “I thought they were saying ‘Let’s go Bills,’” she claimed implausibly, apparently hoping that her hearers would forget that they lived on planet Earth for a second and actually buy the story that a Mamdani crowd was packed with rabid NFL fans who couldn’t help but express their joy over the Buffalo Bills game even as they awaited the appearance of their socialist flavor-of-the-month.
There is more. Read the rest here.

New York state is beautiful. My God, what happened to the people that such imbeciles get elected?
Wellington says
NYC happened. Take that stupid city out of New York and NY would be OK.

You gotta live where it’s cold. Keeps a lot of riff raff out
somehistory says
It gets cold in NY, does it not? We should put out the word about the sweaty humidity…constant….in Florida. That is the thing most non-natives complain about.

Mamdani refused to return the favor? He’s even a bigger lowlife than I thought
I hope that the governor’s mansion is flipped next year
Wellington says
She’s a woeful excuse both for a governor and, even worse, as a person. She confirms in microcosm what Napoleon said of politicians, to wit, that stupidity in politics is not necessarily a handicap.
The woman is a moral moron and a common sense moron. There’s no redeeming her. She’s so dumb she even makes Gavin Newsom look like a smart guy.
somehistory says
If anyone said I made g. newsom ‘look smart,’ I would want to find a hole into which to crawl.
It’s impossible to understand how people can live with themselves when they see what damage they are doing to others.
OLD GUY says
They don’t care about anyone else, its always all about them and their egos.
somehistory says
That’s the way of psychopaths.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Actually, Gavin Newsom is too clever by half. He is an absolute shape shifter who can one day agree w/ Charlie Kirk, and another day, be back on the same page as JB Pritzker
For 2028, he’s the guy I’m most nervous about. Not AOC or Pritzker or Wes Moore
