U.S. MARINE CORPS TOYS FOR TOTS CAMPAIGN COLLECTION CONTINUES THROUGH DEC. 17
Make this holiday season magical for children in need! The mission of Toys for Tots, a program run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve, is to collect new, unwrapped toys each year and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community.
Toys for Tots began in 1947 as the brainchild of Marine Corps Reserve Major Bill Hendricks. Actually, it was his wife, Diane, who was the real inspiration. She had a few handcrafted dolls and asked Bill to deliver them to an agency that supports children in need. When Bill reported back to his wife that he could not find such an organization, she instructed him to “start one!” Maj. Hendricks and the Marines in his reserve unit in Los Angeles collected and distributed 5,000 toys in 1947. Seeing such successful community engagement in 1947, the Commandant directed all Marine Reserve Sites to implement the Toys for Tots campaign transforming it into a national community action program in 1948.
The Christmas season is just around the corner, and we need your help to bring joy and hope to children in America! Bring a gift of a new unwrapped toy to the Christmas/Chanukah Party on Dec 17th at Marbella Restaurant where US Marine Corps Reservists will be on hand collecting them, or drop them off before Dec 17th at Ret. Police Captain Joe Concannon’s house (89-11 237 St., Bellerose, NY). These toys will be distributed as Christmas gifts to make this holiday season special for our nation’s most valuable resources, our children!

Make Thanksgiving Great Again!
Hi, I’m setting up for an event to take place at National Action Network
Asian American activist cries out about Claudine Gay support. Al Sharpton says he will discuss
And just as Al acknowledged me I will try to help him.
Right now the Democrats have leaned on Al Sharpton heavily to attack Trump, but The Democrats did not help actual poor people such as the people I talked about in the video. The first asian American voting district in NYC history switched from Blue to Red after just one term by Iwen Chu.
Eric Adams would benefit from an improved relationship between Trump and National Action Network and so would Al Sharpton.
As someone who voted for Trump but who is still ready to work with and recognize the unique and powerful things that Sharpton does for the community I’d like to usher in a new era of cooperation between our communities.
I am encouraging the MAGA community to particpate with NAN to serve the community in Unity and to start discussions about how we can BETTER SERVE THE LITTLE PEOPLE
The wrongfully incarcerated, the people facing eviction, war victims like myself, Asian Americans being weaponized against blacks and blacks being weaponized against Asian Americans.
There’s a lot we can achieve together and I appreciate how Al Sharpton has not excluded me from attending his events although it is 3 years later and I have never gotten a sit down.
I’m not doing this event to set up Al Sharpton. He has access and no one is all good or all bad Everyone makes mistakes. Trump isn’t perfect either, but more than Trump it is the TRUMP COMMUNITY that has embraced the issues I fight for. Working to help the wrongfully incarcerated, the poor, the people in public housing facing eviction and so forth.
The original thanksgiving brought together communities at war, and this Thanksgiving I’d like to forge a new age of UNITY and ACCEPTANCE and find things we can WORK ON TOGETHER
No 2 people can agree on all priorities or positions. There are many issues I would agree with NAN on except the implementation of these ideas serves the rich and those with political power and consistently leaves my people behind.
I’m hoping that the Asian American community shows up to NAN in a big way. Both to help and to have a REAL CONVERSATION where we are left out so often.
The issue of DEI can be supported by those who will question nothing as did John Liu when he was brought in to sub in to silence my own critiques of DEI and how it is weaponized against the Asian American community.
It is because I love and respect NAN that I am attempting to swarm this event with MAGA peoples in a spirit of cooperation and unity.
Please respond this time.

Harris-Walz is the Most Anti-Freedom Presidential Ticket in American History
The Democratic Party and legacy media seek to reinvent Vice President Kamala Harris by running her as the anti-Kamala Harris candidate. The Vice President’s record is a litany of far-left policies and administrative incompetence that no amount of rebranding can erase. If the flip-flopping wasn’t enough, the campaign has the audacity to center her platform around ‘freedom.’ However, this campaign is a façade that masks the most anti-freedom presidential ticket in American history. Over the past three years, the Biden-Harris administration has been unrelenting in its attacks on our basic freedoms, and this will undoubtedly worsen under a Harris-Walz administration.
Pray, Vote & Knock on Doors!
By Phil Orenstein
When we have illegal migrants sleeping in luxury hotel rooms, and American veterans on the streets, when we are paying around $3 for what was $1 on the Dollar Value Menu four years ago at McDonalds (200% increase), when we are seeing boys in girls sports and locker rooms, it’s time to get busy and vote every Democrat out! Don’t Complain. Rather, we must fight! Pray, vote early, speak up, knock on doors up until Election Day, “Chase the Vote,” and that’s the way we fight for victory!
Every Sunday, club members and Republican friends have been involved in Days of Action for our Republican candidates in various parts of Queens, and weekdays we are knocking on doors of all voters in our own neighborhood. The message we share with all voters is loud and clear: “Vote Trump for president, vote up and down the Republican ballot line, and vote NO on ballot proposal 1 and all the rest!” Of course, first we make some friendly conversation, introduce ourselves, and say that it’s a pleasure to meet you! Then we hand them a copy of our publication, the Queens County Beacon newspaper, and candidates’ literature, and talk about Prop 1, and ask for their vote for Trump and Republicans.
Much to our delight, we have been enjoying some very positive responses, even from Democrats, many of whom are switching to vote Republican for the first time, or having second thoughts about voting for Kamala and Democrats. Our enthusiasm is contagious. The tide is turning even in “deep blue” New York as we see more and more Catholics voting their conscience for Trump and pro-life Republicans, Blacks and Hispanics who are fed up with the lies and broken promises of the Democrats, and Jewish voters who are waking up to the fact that Trump is the best friend Israel and the Jewish people ever had.
At every rally in NYC, and at the historic rally at Madison Square Garden this past Sunday, President Trump has again mentioned that we are going to win New York! It’s a misnomer that New York is “deep blue.” Outside of NYC, and a few blue cities, most of upstate and the rest of the state is solid red. By our calculations, we need to pull over 40% of the vote in Queens in order to win statewide. President Trump and conservative pundits are urging us to vote early, to bank your vote and then get your friends, neighbors and co-workers to vote.
The message to our QVRC club members and pro-Republican friends and neighbors, is to get out and vote early! Lara Trump and the RNC launched “Bank Your Vote” to encourage, educate, and activate Republican voters on when, where, and how to lock in their votes as early as possible, through in-person early voting, absentee voting, and legal ballot harvesting.
President Trump is on track to win the election based on early voting numbers throughout the country, according to veteran journalist Mark Halperin. In swing states, Republican activists are ballot harvesting and it’s working! At a recent Trump rally in Las Vegas, Nevada, sponsored by Turning Point Action, where the speakers, TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk, Vivek Ramaswamy and Tulsi Gabbard urged everyone to get out and vote early, and bring others, TPA asked voters to bring their ballots to the rally and volunteers collected 1000’s of mail-in ballots on site. It looks very hopeful for Nevada, a swing state that is critical to winning the election, with early voting numbers helping to make it “too big to rig.”
Since last year Sean Hannity has been urging Republican voters to “step up and play the Democrats’ game in the 2024 election or risk making a ‘big mistake.’” Mark Levin said he’s voting early and told his listeners: “You need to vote early. Almost every state has early voting right now. Bank your vote. Get family members to vote, colleagues, co-workers … there is an army of tens of millions of us. If we vote early and help get the others to vote, we will win, and democracy will win.”
To win the early voting game, Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point Action has launched the largest ballot-chasing operation in 2024 to win in battleground states. Ballot chasing is TPAction’s newly organized operation deploying 1000’s of trained volunteers to contact voters who have already received mail-in ballots to encourage them to mark their ballots and make a plan to vote. Charlie Kirk said, “EVERYDAY is ELECTION DAY!” He appealed to conservative Americans to join the 1000’s of TPAction organizers who will be “CHASING BALLOTS and CHASING THE VOTE every single day in key battleground states like ARIZONA and WISCONSIN, working nonstop to secure a BIG WIN.”
We can use it in New York as well. Here’s how you can utilize TPAction’s simple “Chase the Vote” strategy in the neighborhood where you live, in the remaining days until Election Day, to help win New York. First, get out your cell phone and download the mobile app. You’ll find the free blue TPAction app in your App Store or Google Play. Open the app, create an account, and sign up. Click the three little arrows at the top to go to the 2nd screen, and that’s where you can choose to “Help Knock Doors” or “Make Calls” or “Send Texts” to your Republican neighbors. Project Civica has a helpful video on downloading and using the TPAction app to help Get Out the Vote in your neighborhood. Go to the website Projectcivica.org to view the video.
President Trump, in his momentous speech at the MSG rally, said that hard working patriots will save our country on Election Day. He said that November 5th will be the most important day in history. “Together we will fight, fight, fight, and we will win, win, win!” We’re going to save America. New York is MAGA country too!
IT’S NOW OR NEVER TO SAVE AMERICA
Just get one, flip blue to red. Start there. Or convince an abstainer to vote for Donald Trump. If every Trump supporter can influence one voter, game, set, match! You may think we have a choice in this regard, but we don’t.
This time the threat is for real, patriots. The proverbial can has been kicked so far down the long, winding road by both political parties that only the cliff remains. And the fall is a rapid spiral toward Communism.
The intent of my weekly “United Patriots Uprising with Gary Binford” podcast is to have high-profile guests enlighten, edify and equip us so we can engage, expose and defeat the left’s radical agenda. The arena of ideas was the battleground for three-plus years. Now it’s all about getting involved, it’s about turnout.
Were We Better Off 4 Years Ago?
The Queens County Beacon endorses Donald J. Trump for President of the United States of America for the following reasons:
Donald Trump built the world’s most prosperous economy. America gained 7 million real jobs, not bounce backs. For every demographic group, unemployment was the lowest in over half a century. Income inequality fell by the largest in over a decade. The bottom 50% of American households enjoyed a 40% increase in net worth! Businesses flourished with decreases in onerous regulations and a business tax cut from 35% to 21%. The average family saved $2,500 in lower electric bills and gasoline annually. Groceries and housing were affordable.
