The only thing Governor Wokeful seems to have down pat is how to virtue signal. She wants to remove a painting from the NYS Capitol which depicts native Americans in a manner she considers unflattering. Never mind no one has probably glanced at that dusty old artwork for 50 years, she wants it taken down. And now she is trying to pander to Asians. The NYC schools already observe Diwali, Eid this & that, Kwaanza, etc. And now, the lunar New Year.

Gay Day Is on the California calendar now with music. Clowns and, of course the Cornhole game.

When are the Dutch going to have a holiday for founding New Amsterdam? The Governor needs to realize there wouldn't have been a New York City if the Indians depicted in those paintings and statues they are removing, hadn't made agreements with the Dutch.

Then the British invaded, and turned that whole area to $hit.

A holiday for the opening day of the Major League Baseball season would have meaning for a larger number of New Yorkers than the Chinese New Year.

And there’s no Dutch holiday and they had far more impact on the development of the state. And likewise there’s no holiday for the Iroquois Confederacy. Both were taught and respected when I was in elementary school in NYS in the 50s and 60s

More money out of the taxpayers pockets and into union members pockets.

Which traditional American holidays were axed this time?

They’ve already got Lincoln and Washington’s birthday rolled into the generic “President’s Day.”

Nothing much to see here. Diversity is our strength. So is celebrating the worship of Hindu and other pagan gods.

Immigration was always going to destroy this country.

It started with the Irish and went down there.

Then in November 2023, Governor Kathy Hochul signed legislation that makes Diwali a school holiday for New York City public schools.

Thousands of convenience store owners and gas station managers pleased . . .
