New York City on the Edge of Collapse

The pending election of Marxist/Islamic devotee, Zohran Mamdani as New York City Mayor is almost beyond description. It is clearly beyond reason, and there are serious questions as to whether Mamdani is even a U.S. citizen and legal to seek such an office. But remaining with his avowed Marxist and Islamic pronouncements along with such pledges to “defund law enforcement” and raise taxes across the spectrum except for the lower economic class, the financial capital of America and even the world, is being forced to come out of its’ “comfortably numb” position and face reality. Coupled with defunding law enforcement, NYPD is anticipating 4,000 cops “pulling the pin” to retire – making for a most sobering law enforcement and protection problem.

Personally, I do not have much hope the majority of New Yorkers will arise, wake-up to the seductive but diabolical assault about to be launched on them. The economic class is another matter, and as the information below shows, already steps are well underway to vacate New York City if Mamdani wins mayor but possibly even if he doesn’t, given the economic shambles liberals and socialists have created.

• Goldman Sachs Builds Texas Campus: The firm is investing $500 million in an 800,000-square-foot Dallas facility opening in 2028, consolidating over 5,000 employees amid New York’s political risks.
• JPMorgan Shifts Staff Southward: Chase now employs 31,000 in Texas versus 24,000 in New York, capitalizing on the state’s no-transaction-tax policy and streamlined permitting.
• Fortress Thrives in Dallas: The $53 billion asset manager opened a 50,000-square-foot headquarters in 2021, praising Texas for 18-month project timelines impossible elsewhere.
• Texas Surpasses NYC Finance Jobs: With 519,000 financial sector roles statewide versus New York’s 507,000, Dallas’s 27-minute commutes and vibrant scene position it as a full rival hub.

Mamdani is quick to speak about arranging for “free stuff” for many New Yorkers and paid by “someone else, so not to worry.” An example of Mamdani changing things radically is his plan to begin free bus service throughout the city, thereby saving $700 million annual cost.

Many New Yorkers take buses because the actual paying of a bus fare keeps homeless people off the bus! Otherwise, the buses would become rolling homeless shelters with junkies riding around all day in a nice place to sit and sleep, shoot up drugs and otherwise act out. Not to mention addicts who smell like sewer rats and loaded with lice. Regular New Yorkers will cease to use the bus system which will lead to one more service going to rot and destruction. Socialists are well known for using other people’s money to promote their horrible ideas and mismanagement.

Zohran Mamdani is an example of the anti-American, anti-Christian assault already underway to collapse this exceptional (not perfect) nation. Our founding principles are far and away removed from the Marxist/Islamic darkness working to destroy what was given to us if we would keep it. Do not think only large cities are the targets. Small and rural communities are a major target of the Marxist movement with the thought that no one will really pay attention to who serves on a public parks board, or library board, or zoning committee, etc. Slowly and deliberately, deceptively and appearing innocent but with new ideas, personalities, like New York City Mayoral candidate Mamdani are coming into the light – NOT to serve but to collapse the unique and wonderful country given to us. Come out of your comfortable numbness! WAKE UP…America is under assault.
