Special Announcement from Harry Wilson on his Candidacy for Governor

Friends – as many of you know, I have been exploring a potential run for Governor of New York for the last several months. I had said I would make a decision by this week, and I have: I will not be a candidate for Governor in 2018.

This has been a very difficult decision to make, and I am incredibly grateful for the enormous support and encouragement I have received from so many of you throughout my exploration. Because it has been both difficult and complicated, and because I feel you all deserve a fulsome explanation, I have drafted this long note so I can explain my thinking.

Mayor de Blasio’s totalitarian statue commission, also known in official parlance as the Mayoral Advisory Commission on City Art, Monuments, and Markers, held a public hearing today at Queens Borough Hall, addressing the city’s statues and monuments which he called “symbols of hate” including the iconic Christopher Columbus statue at Columbus Circle.

Philip Orenstein, the president of the Queens Village Republican Club, questioned whether tearing down statues would start a domino effect of removing names from history books and curriculum. “To tear down our statues is just plain wrong,” he said.

Republicans: Don’t Hide the “R”!

By Rabbi Menashe Bovit

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

Friends,

I’m sure many of us are smarting in pain following the results of the recent election here in NYC and our Borough of Queens.

We not only saw the reelection of a disastrous, destructive, Marxist, abortion on demand, Sharia enabling, illegal immigrant and criminal welcoming mayor who ran without legitimate opposition, but also saw our own Joe Concannon nobly work tirelessly day and night, staying on top of every and any local issue, with real solutions to community problems to only lose an election by a two to one margin.

There was an election tactic employed by the Republicans in which the candidates would run under a number of slates so that the “R” wouldn’t turn off voters who then would supposedly vote for the candidate and pretend that he or she wasn’t a Republican.
