For over three years now, basically since March of 2020, I have been fighting to preserve our Constitution and the rights and freedoms that it was designed to protect. Who and what am I fighting against? The “who” is our government, and the “what” is best described as tyranny. You can call it another name if you like. The left likes to use what I call “word salad” to make disgraceful things sound almost pleasant. So of course they won’t use the term tyranny. No, no. Instead they may call it government overreach… or the administrative state… or police power. But, a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
By Elena Chin Mom’s for Liberty Queens County Chapter Chair
It was with a heavy heart, that I ended my career as a NYC elementary school guidance counselor in June of 2021. At that time, I was two years short of reaching full retirement age and I took a reduction of 12% of my pension. I hadn’t planned to retire for a few more years. The decision did not come easily.
When the schools shut down in March of 2020, I never imagined they would remain closed for as long as they did. My heart went out to the families I worked with as they struggled with the demands of remote learning. The Department of Education’s response to the pandemic was shameful. As a guidance counselor, I witnessed firsthand, the social, emotional, and academic impact school closures had on the children. COVID-19 policies were undoubtedly more harmful to the children than the disease itself.
It was a beautiful sunny day on July 23rd for the Queens Village Republican Club’s annual patriotic Family Fun Day BBQ. Everyone had an incredible day full of fun and games and love of country! They enjoyed music by DJ Jimmy James, an in-person drone flying demo, singing patriotic songs with Sunny, plus a puppet theater, magician, face-painting, game truck, tug-of-war, races and so much more! Curtis Sliwa and the Guardian Angels were there, as well as Barbara from Harlem, Peter Gong with the Veterans Flag Corps, Bernard Chow, who is running for City Council in District 23, and our Diamond Sponsor, Jessica Moves You.
