New York Denies Gold Star Families Free College Tuition, But Will Offer It To Illegal Aliens

24

The Democrats once again show their priorities. They don’t care about America or Americans. Their constituency is the illegal aliens with which they want to inundate the country, so as to drown out the votes and voices of the patriotic Americans who oppose their insidious agenda. This is the party of Pelosi and Schumer, Omar and Tlaib, Sarsour and Farrakhan. I have called the Democrats the Party of Treason for years, and they keep proving me right. This latest outrage is just one in a very long line, and one thing is absolutely certain: there will be many more like it.

“Disgusting: New York Denies Gold Star Families Free College Tuition, But Will Offer It To Illegal Aliens,” by Matt Vespa, Townhall, April 12, 2019:

New York decided to challenge California over which state can be the most insane. It’s a rather disturbing contest between the two states over who is really the mecca of progressivism. And by that, I mean mental illness. These two states are both deep blue cesspools. And the worst of the worst on the Hill come from these states. In their latest move, the Empire State decided to block free college tuition for Gold Star families, but offer it to illegal aliens (via Syracuse.com):

Story continues below advertisement

New York lawmakers on Tuesday refused to advance a bill that would have provided free college tuition to the families of all military personnel from the state who were killed in the line of duty.

The Assembly’s Higher Education Committee voted 15 to 11 to hold the bipartisan bill, effectively ending its chances of making it to a floor vote this session.

The move comes a week after lawmakers passed a $175 billion state budget that included $27 million to provide college tuition aid for undocumented immigrants.

Some Central New York lawmakers said it was outrageous to block a bill that would likely cost in the hundreds of thousands of dollars to help children of military members who died for their county.

That’s disgraceful. There’s no other reason to do this other than to screw over the families of America’s fallen heroes…

They are the party of war, first and foremost. Their ‘treason’ is selling America out to the military/medical/financial/prison etc industrial complexes.

I can see why so many right wingers are terrified of Democrats, with propaganda like this. It’s funny because Obama deported millions, and now Trump is talking about releasing ‘illegals’ inside America. lol

Living in NY most if my life it does not amaze me how sick and twisted they are. Funny the worst states with the highest taxes are all lock tight Democratically controlled. Yet they always seem to blame Trump or Republicans. We are flooded with illegals, taxes are out of control yet the people are to blame because they keep electing these clowns. Case in point is our moronic Governor, the dopey NYC mayor and AOC to name a few.

So true… did you see what California is doing?
I am not sure why they are getting federal aid if they have a budget SURPLUS?

Despite Budget Surplus, California Democrats Propose Array of New Taxes
By: David Rutz
March 13, 2019 11:44 am

California legislative Democrats have proposed taxes and fees on soda, tire changes, dialysis clinics, lead-acid batteries, and drinking water, as well as a firearms excise tax and an oil and gas severance tax.

These potential new taxes come with California already the 10th-highest taxed state in the country by population and percentage of income and a projected $21.4 billion budget surplus, according to a new report by CalMatters.

While Democrats enjoy super-majorities in both chambers of the legislature—61 of 80 in the Assembly and 28 out of 40 in the Senate—Republicans still have sway with Californians tiring of endless new taxes:

Republicans funded an effort to repeal that gas tax in November and even though the initiative failed statewide, it carried in eight Democratic Assembly districts and one Democratic Senate district, according to Rob Pyers, research director at the California Target Book.

“Having to vote on an endless series of taxes is political malpractice,” Democratic consultant Steve Maviglio told CalMatters. “I think leadership recognizes that and they’re trying to tamp down expectations because that’s the most difficult vote they can take.”

The report noted Maviglio is fighting the soda tax on behalf of the soda industry.

Orange County Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris (D.) is on record opposing the proposed water-meter fee that also taxes fertilizer and dairy production.

“I think that there are other approaches that I would like to see us explore that I think would be more effective,” she said in Sacramento.

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D.) has an ambitious, liberal agenda that would be difficult to fund even with those revenue streams, which are largely focused on environmental and public health benefits. The new governor proposed a $209 billion budget in January and seeks such measures as universal health care, cheaper college, and expanded housing.

He already canceled a high-speed rail project prized by his predecessor Jerry Brown (D.), saying it was too expensive and would take too long to complete.

If you are so brave {or foolish} as to set up a new right of centre political party in let’s say the UK and book a hall so the public can come and hear what you have to say, phones will be lifted, words spoken, e mails sent and possible disorderly outcomes suggested IF you should go ahead with your meeting. Especially when your message is known about.

Result, the owners of the venue will cancel the booking so as to avoid “trouble”, the right are silenced and the plod might have had a hand in this too. {You end up holding your “meeting” preaching to the choir in someones front room}.

Now the lesson I draw from this is simple – intimidation and threats of violence work against the patriotic right, but surely what’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander ? The fascist left is out to crush ALL opposition to their globalist open borders plot and that involves loss of the right for us to be heard which is an act of political violence against alternative ideas in itself.

All these truths we recognise of course, but being willing to use the same tactics against them they use against us still has to be witnessed. This of course shows we don’t understand how desperately important this struggle actually is.

Expect the left to deploy the Trojan Horse of the “disadvantaged ethnic minority” speaker,{Omar, Tlaib etc} against your message to silence you because this relies upon misplaced “white guilt” to work, daring to speak out against one of the much vaunted “victims of the white male patriarchy” is beyond the pale comrade. Silence for you.

But what if that waved Ju Ju doll fails to scare, what then ? When the bold and informed right care to display examples of real equality and non racism, those left wing coloured useful plants can be attacked for their anti American beliefs fearlessly, with relish and complete credibility because those on our side insist on holding THEM to the same standards as everyone else.

The lefts tactics are simple and effective, cannot they be used against them ? Should we not try ?

Personally I’m well Ziggy if sick at heart about BREXIT, we’re witness to the open theft of our votes, country, identity and future. If that wasn’t enough, the same corrupted filth in parliament have just published a white paper {regime policy} promising to block sites like this which “spread hate” and tell the horrible truth.
Then the traitor Farage splits the anti establishment vote with his new party because of his blind spot about muslims and islamification. UKIP will be the principle victim.

What you’re seeing now with the UK political elite is nothing less than an elected dictatorship.
They have us in a vice.

It, BREXIT, is a disaster, the ineptness, the perfidy, and unabashed treason perpetrated by the Brit’s self-ordained overlords by design. My wife is an ex-Pat, she has family there and they, as are most sane Brits, are gutted. The move to autocracy is occurring everywhere, yet, many of the people are gormless, choosing to remain inert while their rights are stripped before their eyes. No nation is immune to what is befalling Britain; America is one election away from a similar fate. Canada is, also, is a similar holding pattern, dependent upon the election this year.

It is hard to say keep the faith, Poppey, when one’s nation is foundering, under-siege and under despotic rule. So, just take care.

Matt Vespa lied. Has he heard of the Exclesior Scholarship? With conditions primarily related to working in NY for a time, they can already get free tuition. Hyperlocal NY news media know this, but Townhall is a West Coast site.

This is simply terrible, for I have heard many times about them offering free tuition to illegal aliens. They don’t wish to give free college tuition to Gold Star families?
I don’t understand that.
That doesn’t make sense.
I can’t even grasp this.

If you’re not going to hang them you’ll be calling them traitors for many years more.

Far as I know when you hang BAD people you never have problems with them anymore. I dunno why but It WORKS!! 😉

This sentiment is being played out daily at our southern border. Illegal immigrants storm the border in a human mass while waving the flag of a foreign sovereign, which fits all the basic definitions of an invasion.

What we wind up with is a case of their ass over here and their heart over there.

How soon do you think they will assimilate if it isn’t their foremost thought?

Well, we decided to boycott New York, over it’s decision, on allowing abortion (premeditated murder), up to childbirth. This gives me a second reason to boycott the state.
We read labels, and try our best to avoid anything NY related. I know it’s, but a drop of blood, against them. But, if more, and more people boycott NY, and Cal. That’s less money those states receive. And, their illegal immigrants can bleed them dry.
If you live in one of these cesspools, MOVE! Let the illegal immigrants collapse the states. Only then, will these squirrels get it.
I love Trump’s threat to send the illegals to sanctuary cities. They want them, then let ’em’ choke on them.
