Viral Video: Aura Moody Schools Woke Liberals

Aura Moody attended a rally protesting President Trump’s indictment in Manhattan. This is what she said to clueless Democrats protesting Trump in a video that went viral.

“If you lose this country, there is no other place to go. You are being indoctrinated by the Democrats and the radical left. And that party is the evil party. They want to destroy the family. They don’t believe in God. They don’t believe in the country. They believe in the welfare system. So you should be grateful that you are in our country and enjoy your freedom and prosperity. If you do not like this country, if you hate it so much, why don’t you go somewhere else? And the reason why you don’t go somewhere else is because you know there is no better place than the United States. So you better wake up before you lose it.

Let me tell you something about history. The Republican Party freed the slaves. The Republican Party gave black people the right to vote. The Republican Party gave black people the right to own property. The Republican Party funded the historical black colleges and universities so you could have an education. So read your history. Because what the Republican Party has done for the minorities is unimaginable.”


148th Anniversary Lincoln Dinner, Photos and Review of a Spectacular Patriotic Gala!

By Phil Orenstein
President of the Queens Village Republican Club


A patriotic medley was performed by Naomi Sica on the piano as guests entered the grand ballroom of the renowned Antun’s of Queens Village, a magnificent catering hall in Eastern Queens, where nearly every New York Governor, New York City Mayor, and President of the United States have been in attendance since the 1950s.  

The 148th Anniversary Lincoln Dinner was a spectacular patriotic gala with over 250 patriotic Americans who traveled from the corners of the tri-state region and even some came up from Florida. As they entered the hall, folks joined in the singing of God Bless America and patriotic songs and stood for the Star-Spangled Banner led by Pastor Dana Dice. Father Paul Palesty of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church delivered an uplifting invocation to open the dinner program which was emceed by Barbara from Harlem.

Some of the highlights of this exceptional dinner party were the stirring and emotional Lincoln Address delivered by Marly Hornik, Executive Director of NY Citizens Audit, and the rousing speech by Kristina Raevsky, recipient of the Young American Patriot of the Year award. Kristina is a 13-year-old author of two books and multiple op-eds on saving America and restoring meritocracy in our education system. She was applauded later in the program by keynote speaker, Steve Cortes as a brave patriot who has what it takes to become the first female president of the U.S.A.

I have always been a champion for justice and a voice for those who are often overlooked and ignored in our society.  Ever since I can remember, I have always taken a stand against injustice in any form, no matter how slight, and have spoken up for the marginalized members of our society.  This is evident in my life’s work as I have consistently worked in a position of service and advocacy, seeking to effectuate positive change in the lives of others, be it through my former career as an educator in the New York City and Yonkers school districts, or as a community advocate through work in my church and within the community of Harlem, New York, or during my time as the Chairperson of the Scribe’s Institute serving the children and families in Hartford, Connecticut and the surrounding communities. Service to others is how I believe one should live their lives and if you have been blessed with God given attributes which naturally lend themselves to this life work, then it is your duty, and my duty, to do just that, serve others.  It is my obligation to do that which I have not only been called, but also chosen to do.
