The Stone Zone dissects America’s rural hospital crisis—5,000 lifelines under congressional threat—while exposing Letitia James’ indictment for mortgage fraud, framed as more severe than Trump’s charges. It praises Trump’s peace deals (Israel-Hamas hostage swap by Monday) and slams the NFL’s Bad Bunny halftime show as woke propaganda. The episode blames Democrats for the federal shutdown, ties $100M "Riot Inc." to Antifa funding, and backs Trump’s Venezuela strikes amid 71% public support. It warns of Sharia law bans, NYC’s Marxist mayor risk, and Oregon Guard’s refusal to enforce Portland orders, framing progressive policies as accelerating national decline. [Automatically generated summary]
Rural Americans deserve access to the best our nation has to offer, especially when it comes to health care.
Across every state and every community, America's rural hospitals are the first line of defense, protecting our families, neighbors, and loved ones.
No matter where you live, hospital care doesn't clock out.
They're there 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
Each year, America's over 5,000 hospitals care for millions of patients, providing 24-7 emergency care, delivering babies, cancer treatments, and other life-saving care that patients rely on.
Behind every one of those patients are doctors, nurses, and caregivers working tirelessly to keep people healthy and safe.
Hospitals are our community's lifelines.
They employ our neighbors and keep our families health.
But now, some in Congress are threatening access to care.
Tell Congress, protect patient care to keep America strong.
Don't cut rural health care.

Welcome.
You are now entering the Stone Zone.
Well, in breaking news, New York Attorney General Letitia James has been indicted by a grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia on charges including mortgage fraud, bank fraud, and lying to a financial institution.
I point out that all of these charges are more serious than the charges that James fabricated against President Donald Trump in the state of New York.
And this indictment, despite the very best effort of career prosecutors, read that as Democrats, who only yesterday leaked a story which said that career prosecutor and department head Elizabeth Ussi's own internal investigation determined that there was no probable cause to charge James.
That leak in itself turns out to be a crime.
In other words, leaking the results of an ongoing investigation is a violation of 28 CFR 50.2, unauthorized disclosure of pending investigations based on the Department of Justice manual.
If you read into this, it's actually a little worse than it sounds.
You assume, perhaps wrongly, that this story that was leaked to NBC in the UK Daily Mail only yesterday to try to stop the criminal indictment of Letitia James didn't actually come from this woman, Ussi, but was leaked by two other DOJ employees.
So they violated the law.
The important thing to remember here is that obviously a grand jury of Letitia James' peers disagreed with the career Democrats.
And this is another big win for Lindsey Halligan, the interim U.S. attorney put in place by President Donald Trump when they learned that the previous U.S. attorney, who was supposedly investigating James Comey, as well as Letitia James, failed to disclose his stunning conflict of interest that his father-in-law, Eric Siebert, the U.S. Attorney's father-in-law,
his wife's father, was the godfather to James Comey's daughter.
That means he should have recused himself from the Comey case, but instead of doing so, he had prosecutors file a 51-page report advising against the charges of James Comey.
The president fired him, and the grand jury heard the evidence presented to them by Lindsey Halligan, and that's how James Comey was charged.
Now, Letitia James has been charged.
This is, of course, based originally on a referral from federal housing regulator Bill Pulte.
Columbus Day Reinstated00:11:12
All of the records involved in the investigation are a matter of public record, meaning there were no proprietary government records used in this investigation.
Anyone with a laptop can see how and why Letitia James broke the law.
You see, no one is above the law.
In the meantime, President Donald Trump has returned the United States to commemorating Christopher Columbus's arrival in America as a federal highway, holiday, pardon me.
Gone is Indigenous People's Day.
That woke and politically correct title replaced the holiday dedicated to the famous Italian explorer.
The first recorded celebration of Columbus' voyage to the United States actually came in 1792.
So this is the 300th anniversary.
There were then events in New York and Baltimore.
This issue is very important to Italian Americans across the country.
It became a federal holiday originally in 1937 under Franklin Roosevelt, largely due to heavy lobbying by the Italian-American groups and the Knights of Columbus, a very famous Catholic fraternal organization.
It was initially observed as a holiday on October 12th each year.
The holiday gained traction as a way to celebrate Italian-American pride and culture and Columbus's role in connecting the old and new worlds.
Of course, the 1968 Uniform Holidays Act changed the day effective 1971 to create a consistent three-day holiday weekend for federal employees.
Over time, however, the holiday has faced criticism from woke lunatics who accuse Columbus of colonization, violence, and exploitation of Indigenous peoples.
And then, of course, it was replaced with Indigenous Peoples Day.
We're going back to calling it exactly what it is, Columbus Day.
It will remain a federal holiday, but the observance is different across the country.
Federal offices closed, but many states like California and Hawaii, largely woke states, have opted for alternative commemorations.
That would be the Indigenous Peoples Day.
So President Donald Trump made the announcement today.
Let's listen to the president.
In other words, we're calling it Columbus Day.
That was the press that broke out in applause.
That was, can you believe that?
I've never seen that happen before.
The press actually broke out in applause.
Good.
Columbus Day.
We're back.
Columbus Day, we're back, Italians.
We love the Italians.
Italian Americans and Catholic voters in general have played an extraordinarily important part in the new political coalition that successfully elected Donald Trump.
Catholics and Italian-American Catholics particularly used to be a reliably Democrat constituency in this country, although in the northeastern United States, because the Irish arrived earlier than the Italians, the Democrat Party in states like Massachusetts and Connecticut was the province of the Irish.
Italian Americans who came here later learned there was no place for them in the Democrat urban machines of the Northeast.
Many of them became Republicans.
When I was, I was born in Norwalk, Connecticut, and the Republican Party there had a very famous boss, Stanley Strafalino, who ran the Republican organization in the, I think, the fourth largest city in Connecticut, which repeatedly elected Italian American mayors.
It's interesting that over time, beginning in 1952, when a larger number of Catholics voted for Dwight Eisenhower, again in 1960, John Kennedy was a Catholic and therefore was put that election aside.
In 1968, the percentage of Catholic Americans and Italian Americans voting for Richard Nixon increased again.
Nixon actually came very close to putting the first Italian American president in office because the finalists for vice president on Richard Nixon's 1968 ticket were Spiro T. Ted Agnew, a Greek who was, of course, the governor of Maryland, and John Volpe, an Italian-American who was the Republican governor of Massachusetts.
Nixon came very close to taking Volpe.
If that had happened and Watergate transpired exactly as it went down, which we now know, of course, was not the version presented to us by the Washington Post, but a takedown.
According to classified documents, the CIA was well aware of the Watergate break-in plans, and they infiltrated the burglar team.
And the rest, of course, is history.
Ultimately, Nixon went down not for approving or knowing about the Watergate break-in, but for allegedly trying to cover it up.
But had that happened, of course, John Volpe would have become your first Italian-American president.
We still have not had an Italian-American president, but Italian-American voters voted for the Trump vance ticket in overwhelming numbers, an important part of the realignment in which Republicans have now joined common sense Democrats, independents, libertarians, free thinkers, anyone who isn't for endless foreign war, anyone who supports free speech, anyone who wants to make America healthy again.
The move by President Trump to reassert that Columbus Day would continue to be observed as a federal holiday was hailed by the Italian American Civil Rights League, the nonprofit organization that fights to preserve Italian American history and culture.
You can go to iacrl.org, iacrl.org.
That's the Italian American Civil Rights League.
If you're an Italian American and you want to support the effort to keep American culture alive and defeat those woke lunatics who want to remove the statues of Columbus from all the major cities in the country, you can go there.
That is a not-for-profit organization.
I am a member, full disclosure.
Every penny that is raised is spent advocating for Italian culture, that we have no overhead, no consultants, no fancy offices.
I think it is well worth your checking out if you're an Italian American and you're proud of your heritage and you're tired of the radical left trying to erase us.
So I urge you to check that out.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has another historic first.
It is absolutely clear that the greatest single title that history can bestow is that of peacemaker.
And just as they said Donald Trump could not pull off the Abraham Accords, the historic Mideastern peace deal in his first term, which he did, he has now announced that he has done the impossible, bringing Israel and Hamas together for a brokered agreement to stop the war in Gaza and free the remaining hostages.
Let's listen to the president.
The big thing is hostages are going to be released.
It's probably our time would be probably Monday.
And, you know, they're terribly a terrible situation.
They're deep.
They're deep in the earth, and they're being gotten.
And a lot of things are happening right now.
As we speak, so much is happening to get the hostages freed.
And we think they'll all be coming back on Monday.
So it looks like that's the thing.
And that'll include the bodies of the dead.
So that was President Donald Trump.
The deal was negotiated in Egypt with help from the governments of Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey.
President Trump credits Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as well as special advisors Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, and many others for their role in negotiating what President Trump has called a strong, durable, and everlasting peace.
We all pray for that.
In response, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has invited President Trump to give a historic address to Israel's parliament, the Knesset.
The Islamic terror group, Hamas, even commended President Trump on his efforts to bring about a final end to the war.
President Trump is obviously one of the greatest diplomatic negotiators in the history of the country.
He has really moved our country away from the neoconservative belligerence and antagonism towards America-first pragmatism and understanding.
President Trump has negotiated peace deals between India and Pakistan, Armenia and Azerbaijan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda.
That was a particularly long and bloody conflict.
He brought an end to the war between Israel and Iran with a ceasefire.
He established economic normalization between Serbia and Kosovo.
And of course, he signed the historic Abraham Accords, bringing Israel closer to their Arab neighbors in his first term.
This is all in addition to this peace deal announced yesterday.
It is absolutely clear to me now that the global elitists on the Nobel Peace Prize Committee should give Donald Trump the Nobel Peace Prize.
He has most definitely earned it.
They gave the Nobel Peace Prize to Barack Obama.
It's hard to understand what accomplishment they tie that to.
Barack Obama killed more people with drones than any president in U.S. history.
There was no historic list of peace deals like Donald Trump has posted, and this is a huge, huge win for the president.

So to counter the woke display from the National Football League, Turning Point USA is introducing their own alternative all-American halftime show for the Super Bowl that will honor America rather than denigrating our country.
The TP USA, this is the organization of the martyred Charlie Kirk, my good friend, who was brutally assassinated only weeks ago, will be centered around faith, family, and freedom.
And they will announce details about performers in the coming days.
This, of course, comes after the NFL announced that Bad Bunny would be their halftime act for the Super Bowl.
Now, Bad Bunny is a ghettoized Latino act popular in the slums of the third world.
I believe Bad Bunny is a man who performs in women's clothes.
I'm not very familiar with the performer or the genre, other than to say it certainly doesn't seem very family-oriented or traditional.
They're neglecting their core American audience, football fans.
These are supporters who made football great and made it extraordinarily profitable.
They seem to be trying to appeal to international markets as they host games around the country.
It's not incidental that Bad Bunny is also a notorious Trump hater who regularly appears in public, as I said, wearing dresses.
He can be seen in a recent edition of Saturday Night Live telling Americans they need to learn Spanish in preparation for understanding and appreciating his halftime show.
I mean, this talentless minstrel is a symbol for the replacement of Americans straight out of the cultural sewer.
The latest false idol propped up for the degradation and de-generation of our American society.
What the National Football League really needs to do is to fulfill the agreement, the settlement that they signed with their veteran players.
A number of their veteran players, who are, by the way, overwhelmingly African Americans, reached a settlement with the National Football League decades ago to deal with their brain injuries and other resulting injuries from playing the sport in its early days when the equipment was not nearly as good.
But unfortunately, in that settlement, the millions of dollars, I think it was $236 million, was the agreed to amount.
Most of that money has gone to lawyers and conservators, and very little of that money has flowed down to the average veteran NFL player, many of them actually Hall of Famers who became impoverished and were racked with health issues and enormous legal bills that they could not pay.
So not only should the NFL, in my opinion, Roger Goodell, son of New York U.S. Senator Charles Goodell, who was defeated by Jim Buckley in the 1970 U.S. Senate race, the Democrat in that race was Richard Ottinger, a Democrat from Westchester County.
In a historic upset, Roger Goodell, the current National Football League head, is former Senator Goodell's son.
They need to do right by their veteran players.
I'm Roger Stone.
This is Stone Zone, and we'll be right back.
The Stone Zone, entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Welcome back into the Stone Zone, where five days a week we give you our incisive political analysis and we break news right here on the show.
I, of course, have predicted consistently that New York Attorney General Letitia James would be charged.
I did that because I followed whitecollarfraud.com and I read all of the attendant documents and it became very clear to me based on the great work of Sam Antar, the fraud investigator, and the actual documents which you can link to that she had violated the law.
And well, no one is above the law.
Meanwhile, the federal government remains in shutdown mode.
I wonder how many of our listeners actually feel that their life has been affected by the shutdown.
Does anything feel better?
I mean, in these shutdowns, when the funding agreement runs out, the government provides for essential services.
So Social Security checks, for example, continue to go out.
But this fight is not difficult to understand.
The Republicans put forward what's called a continuing resolution, which is a temporary agreement in which both parties agree to continue to fund the government at current levels of spending.
Not that we don't need to cut federal spending because we do.
The Democrats refused to agree to that, wanting to add $1.4 billion in new spending, the focal point of which, even though they deny it, was in fact free health care for illegal immigrants.
Chuck Schumer, and this is the Schumer shutdown, is either delusional or knows something that I don't because he's celebrating the government shutdown, claiming that it gets better every day for Democrats in Congress.
Chuck Schumer said, every day gets better for us.
It's because we've thought about this long in advance and we knew that health care would be the focal point on September 30th and we were prepared for it.
Their whole theory was threaten us, bamboozle us, and we would submit in a day or two.
But then Senator Mike Lee of Utah released a video proving that the shutdown is indeed caused by Chuck Schumer and his allies in Congress insisting on free health care for illegal immigrants.
Schumer's statements, in my opinion, show that Democrats don't really care about the well-being of the people.
They're playing their games and shutting down the government with the intent to cause pain and panic amongst the public, creating the chaos they desire to capitalize on for the midterm elections.
Now, in the past, Republicans have been blamed for several shutdowns, but in this case, I think President Donald Trump and his advisors very definitely have the high ground, and the Democrats have virtually an impossible position to defend.
The agenda of the Democrats is simply to flood our country with illegal immigrants, warp the historic demographics of his country, bribe the illegals with benefits paid for by hardworking taxpayers so they eventually vote Democrat in perpetuity.
The Democrats are running against our operation against the U.S. Constitution, in my opinion.
They, meaning the entirety of the Democratic apparatus, not just Antifa, ought to be treated like the criminal thugs that they are when they break the law.
I believe that this is also a historic opportunity for President Donald Trump and his extraordinarily capable director of the Office of Management and Budget, Russ Vogt,
to slash federal programs In the hundreds of millions, if not billions, from which no American taxpayer is benefiting, as well as getting rid of some of these bureaucratic jobs for high-paying and well-paying government employees who don't even bother showing up to the office.
It is historic.
Republicans have always been good about talking about cutting spending.
We've always talked a good game about cutting spending, but George W. Bush spent, I think it was John McCain who said, if you said that George W. Bush spent like a drunken sailor, you'd be insulting drunken sailors.
It's one of the few times I agreed with John McCain.
Under both parties, the federal deficit has zored.
Federal spending has increased.
Donald Trump, I believe, is now serious about trying to implement a number of the Doge findings by Elon Musk, where Musk uncovered not millions, not billions, but trillions of dollars of waste, fraud, and corruption.
And the most shocking thing, of course, that Elon Musk discovered was that millions and millions of dollars were being funneled through USAID and was going out the back door to these enormous NGOs, these non-government nonprofit organizations, where that money was being weaponized for political games to finance those trying to tear down America.
And in some cases, even those who were advocating mayhem violence and death.
So USAID will seek to be.
USAID was actually never passed by the Congress.
Interestingly enough, the USAID was first founded by President John F. Kennedy.
It was founded through executive order and it morphed from its original, I think, noble purpose of being a bulkwork against communism in this hemisphere, Central and South America, to being an ATM machine for the radical left.
So the fact that President Trump and Stephen Miller and Russ Vogt are working to shut down USAID is a great, great benefit.
The White House has just covered more than $100 million in taxpayer funds going into the illegal Antifa network.
The White House discovered these funds, funneled through various nonprofit groups into the coffers of Antifa and announced these findings yesterday.
They were presented to President Donald Trump during a recent press conference.
Some of these nonprofits include the Arabella Network, the Tides Network, and the Ford Foundation.
The administration is referring to these groups collectively as Riot Inc.
The director of research at the Government Accountability Institute, Seamus Brunner, said, We have identified dozens of radical left organizations, not just the decentralized Antifa organizations, but dozens of radical organizations that have received more than $100 million from U.S. taxpayers.
We call this operation Riot Inc.
The recommendations to defeat left-wing terrorism, what we see going on today in Portland, in Seattle, in Chicago, in Washington, D.C.
And if the left continues their intransience and their resistance to Donald Trump's efforts to fulfill the mandate that he was given in the last election, I predict will spread to other cities.
They include additional investigations now into these left-wing networks.
They also include an end of government funding.
There'll be new rules on financial disclosures.
There'll be a greater effort to review the non-profit status of these groups.
And there's going to be a strengthening of anti-fraud and anti-violence laws.
These recommendations, in my opinion, don't even go far enough.
It's time to start charging and arresting those individuals behind the terror network.
This has nothing to do with free speech.
This has everything to do with those who are fomenting actual violence.
These organizations need to be declared as what they are, enemy combatants, subject to indefinite detention under the National Defense Authorization Act, and then ship them to Gitmo.
This is a war, and this left-wing domestic enemy is more dangerous to America than ISIS could ever have been.
President Donald Trump, with help from Stephen Miller, is going to deconstruct this dangerous cabal that is financing violence against the American people.
Meanwhile, there is a controversy over the policy of the Trump administration, which has, in their ongoing fight against Marxism in this hemisphere, bombed narco-trafficking boats connected to Venezuela.
I want to commend Secretary of State Marco Rubio for his hard line against Maduro in Venezuela, against the regime in Venezuela, against the regime in Cuba, also an awareness of the growing regime in Honduras.
And a new poll shows that 71% of Americans, including a majority of Democrats, are in full support of the U.S. military being used to blow up narco-trafficking boats in South America.
This poll was conducted by the Harvard Harris Organization, so this is not some right-wing operation, showed that 89% of Republicans, 67% of Independents, and 56% of Democrats approve of this policy by the Trump administration.
Chuck Schumer has moved in the Senate with others, including Richard Blumenthal, the Vietnam War hero who lied about his service in that conflict to limit the president's ability to destroy these drug vehicles.
It's very clear that nation states like Venezuela, like Cuba, like Honduras, they give lip service to drug trafficking detection.
But the truth is these are narco-Marxist states.
And President Donald Trump and the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio know that.
So while the Democrats and others scream about civil liberties and executive power, President Trump is once and again delivering with his hardline anti-drug policies, which clearly, according to this poll, are supported by a broad majority of the public.
President's Hardline on Drugs00:02:12
The Trump administration had ordered the destruction of at least four boats allegedly operated by South American cartels since early September, with over 20 drug traffickers being killed in those explosions.
The Trump administration declared South American drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and told Congress last week that the U.S. is now in a non-international armed conflict with these drug terrorists.
The administration is particularly concerned with the violent Venezuelan gang, Trend di Argua, and their connections to the nation's communist dictator, Nicolas Maduro.
Maduro notoriously colludes with China to ship cocaine and fentanyl and other dangerous drugs through Latin America up across the U.S. southern border.
The Biden administration, of course, turned a blind eye to this, actually supporting countries that were aligned with Maduro in the region.
Those days have come to a screeching halt.
President Trump is putting down the drug smuggling operations that have resulted in the deaths of millions of Americans.
He is committed to ending the scourge of fentanyl because we have a fentanyl epidemic in this country.
Drug dealers now know that their free pass is over, and if they continue to peddle narcotics to the United States with the President Trump in charge, there will be grave consequences.
I commend President Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard in their hardlined support for the removal of Maduro in this hemisphere and their recognition that Maduro is, in fact, anarcho-terrorist and a dangerous Marxist thug.
You can't make this stuff up.
The Brigadier General Alan Grunwald, who is the Admin General of the Oregon National Guard, recently said that the Oregon National Guard will refuse to comply with President Trump's direct orders and mandates, instead, support the Antifa terrorists rising up against ICE agents in the streets of Portland.
Mayor's Plan for New York00:07:26
That's right.
The National Guard in Oregon will support the Antifa radicals and criminals when they're endangering law enforcement officers serving in the greatest single peacetime deportation of violent and dangerous illegal criminals in American history.
It shows you that even the National Guard of a state like Oregon can go woke, and it is outrageous that this general refuses to carry out his orders.
In my opinion, he should be subject to a court-martial.
Thanks for tuning in to the Roger Stone Show, the Stone Zone, as we call it, right here on the Red Apple Audio Networks.
And we'll be right back.
The Stone Zone, entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Welcome back.
You're still in the Stone Zone.
If you're just tuning in, the breaking news today is a decision by the grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia to indict New York Attorney General Letitia James for mortgage fraud, bank fraud, and making misrepresentations to a financial institution.
I predicted that this indictment would come.
Many at NBC and others tried to discredit this investigation, but the facts are absolutely clear.
If you or I did what Letitia James did, we too would be charged.
People don't realize this, but thousands of people are charged and convicted of mortgage fraud every single year.
The regulators at the Federal Housing Finance Administration regularly find irregularities and refer them to the U.S. Justice Department for prosecution.
The only reason you know about this is because Letitia James is famous.
But her lawyer, Abby Lowell, claiming that this was a simple typographical error, clerical error, obviously the grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia thought otherwise.
Meanwhile, Senator Tommy Tubberville of Alabama, a legendary football coach before he was elected to the U.S. Senate, is now leading an effort to ban Sharia law nationwide.
Sharia law is, of course, the Islamic custom that circumvents the U.S. Constitution and involves Muslims resolving disputes and enforcing mandates based upon their backward and barbaric teachings in the Quran that don't respect the U.S. Constitution or U.S. law.
You won't hear from Democrats how radical Islamic terrorists are currently carrying out the mass genocide of Christians in Nigeria.
In fact, just this year alone, more than 7,000 Nigerian Christians have been slaughtered based on their faith alone.
You can't turn on the TV without hearing about Israel's so-called mass genocide of Palestinians every day.
Yet when it comes to the 62,000 Christians being slaughtered by radical Muslims, it's, well, it pretty much is complete radio silence.
This extreme ideology is straight from the pits of hell, and it has no place in American society, according to Senator Tuberville of Alabama.
Sharia law has, of course, been documented.
It's taking place in Muslim enclaves such as Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Dearborn, Michigan.
In Europe, it is even worse, where Muslim rapists in the UK now go free because the local authorities are too scared of being called racist to prosecute them.
In fact, what will get you arrested in England today is criticizing Muslims.
That's a more serious crime than rape, and that is a sad fact.
We really have to stop this.
Banning Sharia law here in the United States by an act of Congress signed into law by the president would be a great start.
But the total shutdown of immigration from the third world must accompany that ban because if the demographic shifts continue, we will be lorded over by the likes of Zoran Miamdami forevermore.
It is the demographic changes in the city of New York, where the percentage of the Catholic and Protestant vote and the percentage of white voters has diminished over time.
As the city became more ethnically diverse, it has opened the door to a Marxist progressive ideology as well as a jihadist ideology that was able to dominate the recent Democrat primary for mayor of New York City.
Miam Dhami continues to pass as the agent for hope and change, with voters not really focusing on the end result of the various radical policies that he puts forward.
When he says incarcerating criminals has no value other than making the victims feel good, that kind of tells you where he's coming from.
This is a mayor who, no matter what he tells you now, as he tries to backpedal from the radical message he used to win the primary, will defund the police, will continue this trend towards doing away with cash bail, and ultimately the streets of New York City will be even less safe than they are today.
I think the crime statistics that have been supplied by the Adams administration have been badly tampered with to give a false impression that crime is dropping.
Ask anybody who lives in New York City.
They'll tell you that is not the case.
This upcoming race for mayor is the focus of national attention because if New York City elects a Marxist mayor from the radical progressive wing of that party, as exemplified by Bernie Sanders, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, and other radicals, New York, by the time we elect another president, will be a flaming wreck.
Between their economic policies, increasing the tax burden on working people, making it impossible to do business in the city, and these soft on crime policies, it will be a showplace nationwide so voters can see the results of electing a Marxist mayor.
I feel sorry for my many friends in New York City because they will bear the brunt of this, but I can tell you that real estate values and prices are going up sharply in South Florida as hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers are already planning their exit in the event that there is a Mamdami administration dedicated to this foreign ideology.
How ironic that years after the attack on 9-11, that the once great New York Democrat Party nominates a candidate for mayor who embraces that hasteball ideology.

Rural Americans deserve access to the best of what our country has to offer, especially health care.
Across every state, every community, America's rural hospitals are the first line of defense protecting our families, neighbors, and loved ones.
No matter where you live, hospital care doesn't clock out.
They're there 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
Each year, America's over 5,000 hospitals care for millions of patients, providing 24-7 emergency care, delivering babies, cancer treatments, and other life-saving care that patients rely on.
Behind every one of those patients are doctors, nurses, and caregivers working tirelessly to keep people healthy and safe.
Hospitals are our community's lifelines.
They employ our neighbors and keep our families healthy.
But now, some in Congress are threatening access to care.
Tell Congress, protect patient care to keep America strong.
