In 1975, during a time of financial crisis in New York City, President Gerald Ford callously responded to their plea for help by essentially telling them to “Drop Dead.” This incident is reminiscent of President Biden snubbing Governor Hochul when she visited the White House to seek federal assistance for the illegal-immigrant crisis. The New …
The Issue: An Urgent Plea from 122 Business Owners to President Biden for Aid in Obtaining Work Permits for NYC Migrants It appears that once again, the corporate elites fail to grasp the urgency of the situation at hand (“Help us!” Aug. 28). We must demand the closure of the border as the first and …
School Wars: The Left vs. Immigrants, Muslims Last week, a federal court made a shocking ruling that parents have no “fundamental right” to opt their children out of education that contradicts their religious beliefs. This decision has particularly affected parents in Montgomery County, Md., most of whom are Muslim and Ethiopian Christians, as reported by …
The Concern: A recent poll reveals that 53% of New Yorkers are dissatisfied with the current direction of the state, with 40% even contemplating leaving. It’s clear that over half of the population believes that New York is heading in the wrong direction, earning it the not-so-flattering nickname “New Yuck State.” This is a result …

Staten Island, a neighborhood in New York, has become a center of resistance against the migrant crisis, with residents passionately protesting against the filling of a former Catholic girls school, St. John Villa Academy, with 300 migrants. The community is engaged in round-the-clock vigils to prevent this from happening. Although St. John Villa Academy is …
A recent poll has underscored the challenging decision that voters will face in 2024 if the nominees are Joe Biden and Donald Trump. According to the poll conducted by the Associated Press-NORC, a majority of Americans (77%) believe that Biden, at 80 years old, would be too old to govern if reelected. Even among Democrats, …

The Challenge: Inadequate response from the city and state to the influx of migrants in New York City. It is quite amusing that Mayor Adams refers to the situation in New York City as a “crisis” (“Hizzoner demands state bailout for asylum crush,” Aug. 24).
