A Bronx gangbanger who was cut loose by a judge only to allegedly murder an innocent man months later is out of jail again, The Post has learned.Steven Mendez, 17, accused of shooting 21-year-old Saikou Koma in the head during a botched gang hit in Fordham Heights last year, was set free Tuesday when Supreme Court Justice Naita Semaj dismissed the indictment against him, the Bronx District Attorney’s office confirmed.

Semaj gave prosecutors leave to present their case in front of a grand jury, which by law must happen within 45 days. The DA’s office had no further comment.

Koma’s distraught mother, Haja Kaira, told The Post she broke down in tears while streaming Mendez’s court appearance.

“When I hear the judge say, ‘Release him.’ To be honest, I had to stand up,” Kaira said. “I could not believe it. I said out loud, ‘What! Release him?!’”

CNN —

A Manhattan judge dismissed a murder charge Tuesday against a bodega worker who fatally stabbed a man earlier this month in what the worker’s legal team argued was a case of self-defense.

Jose Alba, 61, had been charged with second-degree murder in the killing Austin Simon, 35, on the night of July 1. Surveillance video of their confrontation shows Simon came behind the bodega counter and shoved Alba, who then grabbed a knife and stabbed Simon multiple times.

Alba’s attorneys had argued that he acted in self-defense, noting the size and age difference between the two men.

‘That is literally his job’: NYC garage security worker is charged with attempted murder after shooting thief who shot him twice – and now Manhattan DA Alvin Braff faces pressure to drop charges

• The incident occurred at a Midtown parking garage early Saturday morning
• The attendant confronted the suspected thief who pulled a gun on him, which led to scuffle and both men being shot 
• The charges are reminiscent of those brought by DA Alvin Bragg against a bodega clerk who killed an irate customer in self defense last July

A Manhattan parking garage attendant who was shot twice while confronting an alleged thief at his business was charged with murder after wrestling away the weapon and using it to fire at the suspect.

The nightside worker, Moussa Diarra, 57, was slapped with assault and criminal possession of a weapons charges in the Saturday incident, which occurred at around 5.30am.

The attendant saw a man peering into the car windows on the second floor of the West 31st Street garage, reported the New York Post.

Diarra lunged for the gun and it went off, leaving him with a stomach wound and an ear graze before he was able to turn the firearms on the alleged thief and shoot him in the chest.

The culprit, Charles Rhodie, 59, was also charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal possession of a weapon, in addition to burglary, according to police.

The charges against Diarra have left many confused and livid, as they are reminiscent of the case against Manhattan bodega clerk Jose Alba, who was charged with murder following a fatal confrontation on July 1 with an angry customer who accosted him.

A family friend of Diarra’s was irate: ‘That’s self-defense. The guy tried to rob his business. Why DA want to charge him with attempted murder?’ said Mariame Diarra, of no relation to the attendant.

‘He’s there for security. That’s literally his job, to defend his business … He takes his job seriously … Attempted murder charge has no place there,’ she continued. ‘He [the robber] came to find him at his job with his gun, he [the attendant] has to defend himself.’

An individual who works at another garage near the Moynihan Train Station was also shocked and disturbed by the charges:

TRUMP SWEARING IN 2017

Never in the history of our once great nation has a political opponent of the president been arrested, indicted, impeached, not once, but twice, investigated, accused as our 45th President Trump. And who was responsible for this cacophony of accusations?

The Democrat machine of “take down America” using a weaponized Justice Department. Yes, weaponized, during the four years of his presidency, plus the two years of the Biden administration. 

This was precipitated by none other than Barack Hussein Obama, a devil in disguise, who through deceit, deception and determination instigated the breath of hate against President Trump. Yes, he stood by, but his cauldron of liberal trash did the dirty work. All you had to do was listen to some of his speeches and it became obvious what he was up to. 

Listen to the speech, it was not only “down with America” it was “hate America in spades.” What Obama said was a Seditious diatribe of vitriol that lives to this day. This was the opening salvo of the liberal puke emanating from the president that has been carried forward by those who carry the cauldron of poison into our communities.

President Trump, not in a vain attempt did what no recent president. He went after the Deep State. We know how deep and treacherous it is. Filled with gators, saboteurs, murderers, spies and as we alluded to above, Seditionists. President Trump did not, and we emphasize, did not waver from the cannon fire that was sent his way. Yes, the election was stolen, perhaps it can’t be proven, but it was stolen. A high tech lynching as Justice Thomas once said, this was more than high tech, it was AI perpetrated by the social and mass media juggernaut. 

Americans of faith and sound mind know full well the disaster that lies ahead. Soon, the suburbs will be filled with killers, murderers, rapists, gangs – if not already, and libtard enforcement agents from the justice department if Biden secures a 2nd term.

Not only will Trump bring in a new day, but he will protect our borders, he will rationalize the illegals here, he will bring to justice those in Congress who are guilty of sedition, he will bring charges and prosecute the liars of the Deep State. But overall Trump will TAKE AMERICA BACK from the liberal scum that has permeated our institutions.

What a Slut she is, has the audacity to lecture Judge Thomas for flying, vacationing and enjoying the company of a friend. AOC says this is a “crime” and that Thomas doesn’t belong on the Bench. But it is Ok for AOC to flaunt a dress given to her by haut coutere designer Brother Vellies. 

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York arrived at the Met Gala on Monday evening dressed in a custom Brother Vellies ivory wool jacket dress with an organza flounce and the message “Tax the Rich” emblazoned in red across her back.

In video footage shot before her arrival, she can be seen making her way to the vehicle that delivered her to the gala, a masked aide holding up the train of her dress while she smiled brightly and waved at her fans.

Designers and corporate sponsors generally pay the hefty price of admission — $35,000 a ticket, or $200,000 to $300,000 a table — for the gala’s guests, who typically include a quorum of Kardashians, Hollywood A-listers and supermodels. The star-studded event is often referred to as the Oscars of fashion.

Many New York City elected officials are invited as well, as “guests of the museum” who do not pay to attend.

AOC says she may draft Clarence Thomas impeachment article if no one else does

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., renewed her calls for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to be impeached after a report detailed the justice’s close relationship with a billionaire Republican donor — going so far as to say she will introduce articles of impeachment herself.

In comments made on the “Lever Time” podcast Thursday, Ocasio-Cortez said Thomas’ position on the court is an “emergency” and a “crisis,” and reiterated her full support for removing him.

When asked if she would introduce the articles of impeachment herself, the New York lawmaker said she would step up if no one else does.

“Congress is out of session for the next week. And so that does give Democrats some time to strategize, and the way I feel about it is that, I do think articles need to be introduced,” said Ocasio-Cortez.

PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS CALL FOR CLARENCE THOMAS IMPEACHMENT AFTER REPORTED UNDISCLOSED GIFTS FROM GOP MEGADONOR

Democrats have expressed outrage at Thomas because of his wife’s conservative political activities and, most recently, a report that claimed the justice has received lavish gifts from a GOP mega-donor and never disclosed them.

A ProPublica investigation found that Thomas’ close friendship with real estate developer Harlan Crow allowed him to accompany the Texas billionaire on luxury vacations on his private jet and yacht, as well as enjoy free stays on Crow’s vast vacation property, among other perks. He reportedly failed to disclose the vast majority of Crow’s gifts.

In a statement Friday, Thomas described Harlan and Kathy Crow as “among our dearest friends.”

“As friends do, we have joined them on a number of family trips during the more than quarter century we have known them,” Thomas said. “Early in my tenure at the Court, I sought guidance from my colleagues and others in the judiciary, and was advised that this sort of personal hospitality from close personal friends, who did not have business before the Court, was not reportable.”

Teacher, “Oh, you didn’t know that you  had White Privilege? Someone told you that you had it? Who was that?  Your high school teacher. Now we get it. Was she White, oh sorry, was they They? A huh!”

Teacher, “What determines White Privilege? The benefits you get.

They, “What benefits?

Teacher, You don’t know them by now?

They, “We never thought about it until you brought it up. 

Teacher. Yeah, like me? White!

I was hired because I am the right color. Do you think they wanted a Black person, who by the way ascended to their position in college through affirmative action and a curved grade scale that led to their graduation? So, that is why I am your teacher.”

Teacher: “But to put this scenario in the right context, we must white wash your mind of the White Privilege you enjoy. You see, Blacks had it rough, they mostly lived in the hood, had one parent up-bringing, father was AWOL. Do you get the picture? And the mother was herself from a one parent family. Get the gist. They didn’t have the nurturing that you did. And to top it off, they scrubbed floors, washed dishes, did anything they could to make ends meet. Many turned to drugs, not only using them, but selling them and prostitution too. Their kids were harassed to, in, and from school. How would you like to live like that?”

They, “Doesn’t matter that I studied, sacrificed, labored to get where I am? 

Teacher, “No, that doesn’t matter one iota. Because of White Privilege you were elevated in this biased society. In baseball, integration did not start until Jackie Robinson broke through. The Blacks were good, real good, but were kept out of the Majors because of bigotry. You see, now they are stars, Hammerin Hank broke the Babe’s home run record.” 

They, “Yeah, but Teacher, the Blacks are good at sports, where the Whites aren’t, this is the result of genetics. Don’t you understand that differences exist in mental capacity? All brains aren’t created equal. ”

Teacher,  ” that is not true, no science exists to show that.

They, ” excuse me, but your are lying like all Libtards. There are plenty of studies that prove that differences exist. We are not saying that applies to all, after all there are outliers.”

Teacher, “So, to make things right we have to reverse this scenario, the injustices of the past. The day has come where we need to recognize the errors of our ways. Do you understand what I am trying to tell you? By recognizing our guilt; we can move forward into a new era, one where all people of color will be placed in powerful positions, judges, prosecutors, doctors, nurses, engineers, managers, corporate titans, mayors, governors and presidents. In other words we will now take full credit for our bias, for not understanding the hardships imposed by White Privilege. Equity is the new Equality. “

“The tables have been turned, what was racist in the past is now diversity and inclusion. Boys are now girls, girls now boys. Whatever you want to be you are. Doesn’t matter if you have a penis or a vagina, you must be addressed by the sexual orientation of your choice. And in case of a neutral being, you are now a Binary.”

They, “Oh teacher, I have a question!”

Teacher, Yes, They, what is it?

They, “It has been tried  in the past and where did it get them?  Civilization turned into Sodom and Gomorrah. This eventually resulting in Armageddon.”

Teacher, “that is not all bad, you see, we had fun destroying the WHITE DEVIL.“

Seen below is the ratio of Democrat teachers to Republican teachers in various disciplines at Stanford University

They, “Do you think Whites have a chance?”

“Not until we get EQUITY in EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT, HOUSING ETC.”

There is no way out. The government clock is ticking away, the interest rate is rising in tandem, budget deficits are spiraling out of control, mirroring the United states as a whole.

https://www.usdebtclock.org/

 31.6 trillion dollars at last count, spiraling out of control. Printing presses operating 24/7 three hundred sixty five days a year, spraying ink on fiat paper that in terms of today’s dollars will never be paid back, no matter what the pols say.

Your only salvation is to turn those extra green backs into gold, bury them somewhere, in a clandestine location so the government can’t get their hands on them, like they did in 1933. Remember, the hand of Big Govt is long and strong.

“REVOLUTION IS THE SOLUTION”

The mini banking crisis (SVB biting the bullet)  this fortnight ago was a bump in the road. There was no problem here for the ordinary man; all of those who lost their money were Democrats. So Sorry! Funny thing though, the BOD consisted of liberal pundits who shoved millions into Democrat campaigns, only one breathing human was from the banking industry. Go figure?

And who will pay for the implosion? Everyone! Goes to show you that the liberal elite will always level the playing field by socializing the losses. Socialism to them as quoted by Karl Marx, “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”

GOLD – ON ITS WAY TO $3000 – POSTED December 2022

GOLD – THE INSURANCE POLICY FOR THE AGES

NOVEMBER 7, 2021 EDIT

In case you have been asleep at the wheel, the cost for ONE OUNCE OF GOLD is $1818.00. A breakthrough of the $1800 barrier according to the cognoscenti.

GOLD HAS ENDURED FOR MORE THAN TWO MILLENIUM

EDITED POST FROM SEPTEMBER 2020

What is so special about GOLD? Why has it endured in times of war, political upheaval and economic turbulence? What is money and how does one value it? These are questions that “time” has answered.

Countries have gone to war over gold, pillaged, robbed, murdered and savaged unsuspecting peoples. If printing paper was money, why seek gold in the first place? “TRUST” in government is the number one priority of a stable currency; without trust, citizens resort to the accumulation of precious metals; this is to secure their wealth. Governments have tried to prevent citizens from holding gold, but in the end they all have failed.

And now world governments sit on the precipice of massive inflation, one which there is no viable solution. Trillions upon trillions of dollars have been printed by world governments since March 2020. The continuation of printing continues without interruption; a runaway freight train that can’t be stopped. Revolution or War is the end result.

World governments have seen this show before. They were all socialist in nature. For instance some were on our southern border, for instance Cuba, Venezuela, Argentina and Brazil; burning investors over and over again.

Citizens around the world have learned from past experience that the devaluation of money through printing, let’s call currency money as an academic illustration to make a point, is outright theft by government. So, to ward off the devaluation of their wealth, they resort to the purchase of gold, silver, platinum, palladium; they trust no one accept themselves when it comes to protecting their wealth. Therefore, it is imperative that citizens take note of what is happening in currency markets today. The dollar has been devalued in terms of gold which has risen by over $600 during the past five years.

World currencies are being devalued en masse, they are no longer a stable source of money when compared to real money, that is GOLD. We have not seen the ultimate collapse yet, but rest assured it is not too far off. Its UGLY HEAD HAS BEEN RAISED, CPI UP 5.4%.

What will trigger this BLACK SWAN EVENT is an out of nowhere SUPER surge in inflation. Think of prices rising by 10% in an instant, reminiscent of the Weimar Republic. For this to occur is not out of the realm of possibility. 

Protect yourself and be safe, but be careful America. Your well being is the number one priority in the calamity we see ahead.

THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN FLEECE

PREVIOUS MAY 2021 POST

First it was salt, then spice, then paper, but in the end it was gold. They tried them all, as they say, “you can fool some of the people, some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time.” And it has come to pass, the “ALMIGHTY DOLLAR” is slowly dissolving like the piece of paper it is printed on. Don’t take our word for it though, check the status of soon to be reserve currencies, like the Chinese renminbi (aka yuan) or perhaps the Russian ruble. Don’t despair, the cryptocurrency world is at your fingertips. If that doesn’t suit you, GO FOR THE GOLD, but SILVER will do just fine. To those of the initiated, they know where the price is headed, and that is north. The everlasting obituary is premature, the body has not been declared mortal. And as the eternal rays provide life to all, the man who has gold in his hand will endure for a lifetime.

Gold has been on a tear of late, rising from the mid 1700’s to the 1840 level. The sign of inflation is in the air. A whiff of the third quarter numbers will reveal what is in the black box. Our guess, and it is only a guess, we are not economists, places the number at 3.5%. You can’t keep a good man down, can you. The second quarter won’t be that horrible though, somewhere in the 2.5% range. Don’t forget that the Biden team has their thumb on the scale. And to make a salient point, economists are always right, it is the timing that is wrong. BTW, they have predicted 8 of the last 4 recessions. Batting 50% is a admirable achievement in most sports.

Billionaire investor Sam Zell is also now buying gold, despite decades of criticizing those who purchase it, reports ETF Trends. Zell says it is because these monetary policies may create inflation like the 1970s and gold could be a hedge.

North Carolina school taking heat for letting drag queen straddle student

A North Carolina community college is looking to “revise campus policies” after coming under fire last week for a video showing a drag queen straddling a female student sitting in a chair during an LGBTQ+ pride event on campus.

Critics say Winston-Salem area Forsyth Technical Community College, which offers two on-campus high school programs allowing students as young as 14 to enroll beginning in the ninth grade, poses larger concerns over minors being exposed to sexually explicit behavior.

Alex Nester of Parents Defending Education ripped the incident Sunday on “Fox News Live,” invoking overarching concerns over what’s going on in America’s education system and asking anchor Mike Emanuel, “Where are the adults?”
