Senator Schumer is selling the American people down the river. He believes that only by welcoming and embracing all immigrants, including the many millions of illegal immigrants now residing in the United States, can we “have a great future in America.” Turning today’s illegal immigrants, which far exceed 11 million, into tomorrow’s dependable voters for Democrat candidates will be great for the Democratic Party’s future. But Senator Schumer’s idea of rolling out a red carpet for today’s illegal immigrants on their “path to citizenship” will only incentivize millions more immigrants to cross the open border illegally into the United States. Say goodbye to America’s national sovereignty and respect for the rule of law. JOSEPH KLEIN

Chuck Schumer has also been in government since the 1980s and helped create the economy of today that makes it virtually impossible for people my age to build wealth and start a family. The man has literally done nothing but preside over America’s decline. OLIVIA MURRAY
CHUCK IS MERELY ONE MORE LYING GAMER LAWYER!
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: From day one, the borders were flung
open by the Democrat Party to drug traffickers, murderers, and
myriad other miscreants in the hope they would be new Democrat
votes. As a result, crime is rampant, blue cities under Democrat rule
are suffering and homelessness is on the rise, all the while Biden
spokespeople are claiming the "border is closed." Squealing like
stuck pigs, places like New York City which have reluctantly become
home to Texas' illegals, have seen a marked inability to safely house
the very illegals they claim to have wanted to live in their "sanctuary
city." M.B. MATHEWS
"Democratic process," of course, is a euphemism for "Democrat Party." The demographic overwhelming of our elections through both illegal alien amnesty and unfettered legal immigration is straight out of the left-wing playbook. What's happening in the Big Apple is not new, nor is it a "conspiracy theory." As I've long reported since my early days in newspaper journalism in Southern California, there's been a steady erosion of voter integrity at the hands of open-borders politicians and operatives for decades.

Over the weekend, New York City's Democrat mayor Eric Adams threw his support to a City Council-approved measure to allow an estimated 800,000 local noncitizens to participate in local elections. The newly minted voters would include green-card holders, temporary visa holders, including H-1B workers mostly from China and India, F-1/Optional Practical Training foreign university students with employment authorization, and potentially unknown masses of illegal alien so-called Dreamers.

"Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, the twin nutters of Congress, were certain they could beat Trump at his own game, but have made fools of themselves, as usual. The stand-off is not over but with each passing day, the Democrats reveal more of their anti-American, pro-illegal immigration agenda. Conservatives have been sounding the alarm for years: Democrats do not care about American PATRICIA McCARTHY
Chuck Schumer: Jews Are Threatened by Left-Wing Antisemitism
Left-wing allies of the Democratic Party are allying with antisemites to drown out public sympathy for embattled Israel, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) wrote in an op-ed for the New York Times on Wednesday.
“Today, too many Americans are exploiting arguments against Israel and leaping toward a virulent antisemitism,” Schumer wrote.
The antisemitic arguments also come from people “we considered allies,” he wrote, adding:
What happened last week at the Queens high school is an example of crossing that threshold. Walking out of school to march in support of Palestinians is completely legitimate. But forcing a Jewish teacher to hide because she had attended a rally in support of Israel is antisemitism, pure and simple.
For many Jewish people today, the rise of antisemitism is more than a crisis — it’s a five-alarm fire.
Many progressives have been shocked by the sudden emergence of left-wing antisemitism — especially among younger “woke” progressives and immigrants — after they spent decades successfully blaming “right-wing” nationalists for alleged antisemitism despite their strong support for Israel. The problem is exacerbated by the declining share of Americans with historic sympathies toward Israel.
“We see so many of our friends and fellow citizens — particularly young people who yearn for justice — unknowingly aiding and abetting [the antisemitism] cause,” Schumer later told the New York Times. He suggested that the Jewish communities’ focus on legal rights and civic diversity deserves reciprocal support from other minorities:
“Not long ago, many of us marched together for Black and brown lives,” Mr. Schumer said. “We stood against anti-Asian hatred. We protested bigotry against the L.G.B.T.Q. community. We fought for reproductive justice, out of the recognition that injustice against one oppressed group is injustice against all.”
The emergence of antisemitism in the Democrats’ political coalition is a political problem for many Democratic politicians — especially those in states and districts where Democrats assumed immigrants would reward the pro-migration Democratic Party. The New York Times reported on October 28:
Sam Baydoun, a Wayne County commissioner in Dearborn, Mich., has been glued to Al Jazeera for weeks to absorb news from the war in Israel and Gaza.
Mr. Baydoun, a Democrat who is Lebanese American, has watched with fury as Israeli airstrikes have caused the deaths of many civilians, including children, following the deadly attack by Hamas on Israel on Oct. 7 that killed many. He saw President Biden visit Israel and pledge full-throated American support. And he is thinking ahead to the presidential election of 2024, a contest that could hinge on a handful of states including Michigan, whose Muslim and Arab American voters turned out decisively for Mr. Biden three years ago.
“How can I tell somebody who’s watching these atrocities on live TV, today, to vote for President Biden?” he said. “The pulse of the community is overwhelmingly not supportive of Biden now. They feel betrayed.”
Schumer suggested that left-wingers have allied with antisemitism pushed by Arab and immigrant groups because of the “woke” ideology that urges progressives to side with minorities, regardless of the merits in each dispute. “Because some Jewish people have done well in America, because Israel has increased its power and territory, there are people who feel that Jewish Americans are not vulnerable,” he said.
That explanation was echoed by the New York Times article, which said, “Many progressives have taken up the Palestinian cause as an extension of the racial and social justice movements that have recently dominated Democratic politics.”
The shift within the Democratic Party was spotlighted by a November 27 debate at the Oakland City Council, where many progressives denounced a draft resolution against Hamas after its feral massacre of more than 1,000 Israelis on October 7:
Many ordinary Democrats shrug off the growing antisemitism, Schumer told the New York Times. Jews, he said, regard the rise of antisemitism “a crisis, a five-alarm fire that must be extinguished,” while many of his non-Jewish friends consider it “merely a problem, a matter of concern.”
He added:
When I was a boy, I learned what happened when the Nazis invaded my family’s town in Ukraine. The Nazis ordered my great-grandmother to gather her extended family on the porch of her home. When the Nazis told her to come with them, she refused, and they gunned her down, along with 30 members of her family, from 85 years old to 3 months old.
Watch the speech here:
PIG SCHUMER REALLY DOESN'T STAND FOR ANYTHING BUT BILLIONAIRES AND BANKSTERS. HE'SA POS LIKE BIDEN!
Pollak: Schumer’s Bad Actions Speak Louder than his Words on Antisemitism
Here is the most important fact about Sen. Chuck Schumer and antisemitism: When President Barack Obama forced the Iran nuclear deal on America, Schumer opposed it but did not whip his caucus against it.
When the deal came up for review in the Senate, Schumer’s party filibustered the vote and prevented Congress from blocking it. The deal gave Iran access to some $100 billion in assets, plus billions of dollars in a side deal as ransom for Americans held in Iran. That money funded terror and Hamas.
At the time, Schumer made a wonderful statement about how terrible the Iran deal was. I even thought that it might be a “game-changer.”
More experienced observers of the future Senate Majority Leader told me to watch his actions, and not his words.
They were right.
A few years later, Schumer — like every other elected Democrat — refused to attend the opening of the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem and declined to attend the party thrown by the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC, to celebrate the event.
The reason? Schumer and the Democrats did not want to give President Donald Trump credit. They put partisan gain ahead of what was good for America and the U.S.-Israel alliance.
So it is with Schumer’s speech on antisemitism in the Senate Wednesday.
Schumer is being praised by the establishment for the speech, including the American Israel Public Affiars Committee (AIPAC), which is always at pains to praise Democrats for doing anything pro-Israel, since that maintains the façade of bipartisan support.
Some conservatives, too, are happy that Schumer mildly criticized the left and college campuses, finally acknowledging that the base of the Democratic Party is the source of the problem.
It took Schumer eight weeks to recognize what is painfully obvious?
Like everything Schumer does, this speech had a partisan purpose: to calm nervous Democrats about the party’s drift toward antisemitism, and to assuage Jewish Democratic voters in particular, some of whom are thinking of backing Republicans in 2024.
Schumer found time to bash President Donald Trump — predictably — by claiming that Trump had imposed a “Muslim ban” in 2017.
No, Trump did not ban Muslims — though it is worth noting that Muslim immigration has likely driven some of the rise in antisemitism, a point that Schumer did not acknowledge.
Schumer also attacked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for supposedly encouraging “militant settlers in the West Bank.” (That was his only mention of Netanyahu: not a word of support.)
The Senate Majority Leader pointed out that the pro-Palestinian demonstrators across the country have failed to condemn Hamas. He pointed out that Jews want Israel to be strong because it is the only guarantor of Jewish safety in the event of persecution. All of that is important to reiterate.
But these are just words.
Schumer allowed President Joe Biden to confirm radical appointees to key positions, such as Kirsten Clarke, who had a troubling history of antisemitism.
Clark runs the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division, which has done nothing to protect the rights of Jewish Americans. (The Department of Education has been more active.)
Schumer prides himself on providing humanitarian aid to Palestinians, without asking — as Trump did — where that aid is going.
As of this moment, Schumer has yet to pass $14 billion in emergency aid to Israel because he insists that it be joined to a much larger amount of aid for Ukraine.
So, as always, with Schumer — watch what he does. It’s more important than anything he says.

Pro-Palestinian Activists Disrupt Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting
Another cadre of pro-Palestinian activists attempted to disrupt the much beloved Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree lighting on Wednesday night.
The protesters, estimated in the hundreds, swarmed the surrounding areas of Rockefeller Center and were seen clashing with police while chanting anti-Israel slogans like “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”
“Waving Palestinian flags and signs calling for the ‘end to genocide,’ the ralliers gathered along Sixth Avenue alongside hordes of tourists waiting in line to see the iconic ceremony,” reported the New York Post.

The activists had been gathered outside the News Corp building, which also serves as home to the New York Post and Fox News. Video of the incident has been widely shared online:
As noted by Fox News, the NYPD had been on high alert leading up to the tree lighting in fear of a possible clash with pro-Palestinian protesters:
The New York City Police Department has issued a warning ahead of planned pro-Palestinian protests during the annual Rockefeller Center tree lighting on Wednesday night, according to a report.
The NYPD Intelligence and Counterterrorism Bureau issued the threat assessment advisory to law enforcement and government agencies and noted that protesters could use the tree lighting “as an opportunity to draw attention to their own causes,” according to the memo obtained by ABC News.
“While many of these actions would likely constitute First Amendment protected activity, they could prove disruptive to the event and potentially pose a security risk,” the assessment states.
The disruption comes days after pro-Palestinian activists disrupted the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade when they glued themselves to the street in the middle of the parade route.
“Several protesters — wearing white jumpsuits with protest slogans and already splattered with red — interrupted the floats and balloons just before 11 a.m., forcing the parade to be halted,” noted the New York Post.
“They walked 6th Avenue with large signs including ‘Liberation for Palestine and Planet,’ a message they also chanted,” it added. “Several then pretended to be dead on the ground as others walked around pouring fake blood over them and the road — with their chants met by loud boos from spectators.”
Fox News noted that some activists were heard saying, “There is only one solution, intifada revolution.”
