“There is more Kente fabric in this picture than at a Ghanaian traditional wedding,” pro-life activist Obianuju Ekeocha said. And went on to say on twitter,”I had to say something about the American politicians shameless and ignorantly using the Kente fabric as a prop in their virtue signaling.”

Reader Calls Murphy’s layoff Threats “Classic Bureaucratic Strategy”

gov phil murphy nj generic 041518 1523813414516 5330616 ver1.0 640 3601

“Classic bureaucratic strategy. Pick services to shut down that have maximum impact and cause maximum distress to the public. Same strategy was used during government “shutdowns” when they closed parks to inflict as much pain as possible.

When this clown proposes a meaningful plan for coping with the revenue shortfall, then maybe start to pay attention.”

Reader says , “This is what happens when the Government becomes too large and has way to many programs of assistance”

money

“This is what happens when the Government becomes too large and has way to many programs of assistance. The highest income taxes, property taxes, sales tax, gas tax, toll roads. The cost of living is out of control. People run out of this State as soon ad they can yet the State insists on being a Sanctuary State. Giving away billions to those who were oppressed in their own country and catering to their wishes. With a small and nimble Government this State could be in a much better place. Take a five mile high look and you’ll see all the waste. It’s not an easy task nor should it be. Just do it and so it now.”
