A lesson for that chubby Greenwich matron who's encouraging families to break up over politics; you may not be missed

/

While it probably felt good while she was calling her friends that night and reporting what a bold lib she is, when she woke up the next morning, she started having second thoughts. She missed him. She missed having a partner and someone to depend on. Oops!

He won't have a problem finding a nice young lady who is happy to support his ideals. It won't take him any time at all to move on. I hope this lady enjoys her new life with some unemployed loser who calls himself a feminist though.

AI Overview

A study by researchers at the University of California, Irvine published in PNAS Nexus found that 37% of Americans have experienced a "political breakup" or severed a relationship due to political differences. [1, 2]

Key Findings on Political Breakups

  • Affected Relationships: Friendships are the most common casualty at 62%, followed by family members (40%), coworkers (29%), and romantic partners (10%). [1]

  • Partisan Breakdown: Democrats report higher rates of political breakups (47%) than Republicans (29%) and Independents (39%), and Democrats are more frequently reported as the ones who initiated the split (66% vs. 27% for Republicans). [1]

  • Timeline: The vast majority of these major relationship splits (96%) occurred in 2016 or later, with post-2024 trends accelerating even faster than previous election cycles. [1]

  • Underlying Causes: Many participants view political differences not just as disagreements over tax rates or policy, but as core clashes in morality, human rights, and character. [1, 2]

  • Psychological Impact: People who experience political breakups often show heightened hostility and colder "feeling thermometers" toward opposing voters, which can deepen ideological bubbles and increase public loneliness. [1, 2]

Minneapolis restaurant with no prices will close after a year of "trying to prove" that socialism works

When immigration enforcement ramped up in Minneapolis earlier this year, owner Dylan Alverson rebranded the restaurant as "Post Modern Times." He took prices off the menu and declared he would feed anyone who walked in the door, whether they could pay or not.

Well, almost anyone. Federal agents were explicitly unwelcome.

The stunt made national news. Donations poured in from around the world.

For six months, the restaurant operated as a pay-what-you-can (or pay-nothing-at-all) sanctuary in Minneapolis. But as it turns out, people are greedy, and the comrade who pays $10 for a hipster sandwich starts wondering why they are shelling out $10 while someone else pays $1, and the comrade who pays $1 is wondering why others are getting the sandwich for free.

The restaurant had been struggling financially for years.

Let's see how it unfolded from one of our "favorite" leftwing newspapers, The Star Tribune: [paywall, so …. _ed]

Neighbors began to be crowded out of the restaurant by people who could not pay and who lingered around the restaurant all day. Complaints mounted of open drug use, theft, discarded needles in the alley and overdoses on the sidewalk.

After a series of contentious community meetings, Alverson closed the restaurant in July for a few weeks, then reopened in August with prices back on the menu.

“I don’t get it”

You may be puzzled why so many Democrat politicians showed up at Saturday's "Non-Partisan" be-in in Greenwich. Don’t be; it was never intended to be anything but a Democrat pep rally

AI Overview

The "No Kings: Vote Early" day of action took place nationwide on Saturday, October 17, 2026. [1, 2]

Key Details of the Event

  • Focus: Organized by Indivisible and partner coalitions (including the ACLU and Black Voters Matter), this fourth wave of the "No Kings" movement shifted from pure protest to a nonpartisan push for early voting [un huh] ahead of the 2026 midterms. [1, 2]

  • Guidelines: Events were designed to be nonpartisan, prohibiting candidate-specific or partisan campaign signs, and strictly adhering to nonviolent action. [1, 2, 3]

Don't tell these morons, but America is one of the very few countries in the world that doesn't require Voter ID

/

Chris Murphy: The concept of “one person, one vote” has also been threatened by attempts to infringe on voting rights. States across the country have passed voter ID laws, made cuts to early voting and eliminated same-day registration. I‘ll continue to work to ensure that voters across the country, no matter their color or creed, can freely exercise one of our most basic constitutional rights.

Jim Himes:

AI Overview

Representative Jim Himes (D-CT) has consistently voted no (opposed) on the SAVE Act / SAVE America Act legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives. [1, 2, 3]

  • February 11, 2026 (S.1383 / SAVE America Act): Himes voted Nay against the bill requiring proof of citizenship to register and photo ID to vote (which passed the House 218–213). [1, 2]

  • April 10, 2025 (H.R. 22 / SAVE Act): Himes voted Nay (recorded via the Office of the Clerk, U.S. House of Representatives) against the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, joining the vast majority of House Democrats in opposition. [1]

  • July 2026 (NDAA Amendment): Himes publicly opposed and voted against the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2027, citing in part the inclusion of the SAVE America Act provisions within the package. [1]

Greenwich Selectman Rachel Khanna:

“I’m mad as hell. The president is doing everything he can to prevent us from voting. Whether it’s trying to pass the SAVE America Act that would potentially disenfranchise millions of voters, or restricting mail-in voting, he’s trying his damndest to make sure that people can’t vote.”

I describe these people, as well as members of the Democrat’s invisible Ladies of Belle Haven like Joanna Swomley and Neryln Pierson, as morons because if they understood that Voter ID laws are standards in almost every country of the world, they wouldn’t be shrieking about Trump’s advocacy for same. Of course, if they do know that, and are still organizing “No Kings” days, then they’re just Democrat flacks, and can and should be ignored.

European Union proof of identity rules for voting:

They’re all basicall the same, but here are France’s requirements:

You can submit one of the following documents:

  • Valid national identity card issued by the competent administration of the State of nationality

  • Valid passport issued by the competent authority of the State of nationality

  • Residence permit (valid)

  • Identity card of local elected official (valid) with photograph, issued by the State representative

  • Vital card with photograph

  • Veteran's card (valid) with photograph, issued by the National Office for War Veterans and Victims

  • Disability card (valid) with photograph or mobility card inclusion (valid) with photograph

  • Identity card of State official with photograph

  • Military identity card or road pass (valid) with photograph, issued by the military authorities

  • Driving license (valid)

  • Hunting permit (valid) with photograph, issued by the National Office of Hunting and Wildlife (ONCFS)

  • Receipt for proof of identity (valid), issued in exchange for identity documents in case of judicial review.

Warning  

You must present the original document. A photograph or smartphone download or photocopy is not accepted.

In a municipality of less than 1,000 inhabitants, identity documents are not mandatory. But in case of doubt, the president of the polling station can ask you to prove your identity by any means.

Great — now they can ditch the stupid chef's toque and return to their original feather bonnets

NY plans to drop part of Native American logo ban in ‘huge victory’ for Massapequa

It’s a win for the Chiefs.

New York State plans to drop part of its statewide ban on Native American imagery in school sports logos days before a court showdown with a Long Island district fighting back.

The Board of Regents “intends to repeal” a section of its 2023 mandate that has prohibited “school officers and employees” from “utilizing or promoting any Indigenous name, logo, or mascot” while on campus or at a school function, according to court documents reviewed by The Post.

Sadly, while they were renovating this split-level, they neglected to do anything about the unfortunate remuddling their predecessor inflicted on its neighbors

38 Amherst Road, Riverside NoPo and priced at $2.425 million, is reported under contract after 11 days. Owners paid $1.6 for it in June, 2024.

The listed improvements don’t look like a million bucks to me but then, that’s why people undertake these projects, so more power to them.

We will sell no house before its time, and apparently, after 18 years, that time was Friday. Updated — there have been several non-MLS transactions here over the years

16 Ridgebrook Road has been sold to an Armonk buyer for $4.440 million, just $50,000 less than its owner had asked in 2012, but substantially below the $6.950 million he’d looked for in 2008.

UPDATE:

An alert reader who noticed a couple of previous sales reported on Zillow drove me to the Town of Greenwich property records and I found the following:

6 June, 2013, forclosure sle, $3.5 million

Interbank sale to Friday’s seller, 2/14/2020: $2.290 million

At Greenwich No (Republican) Kings Event, Rally-Goers Pledge to Vote Early and Often

“I’m here today because I’m mad as hell. The president is doing everything he can to prevent us from voting,” said Greenwich Selectwoman Rachel Khanna said. “Whether it’s trying to pass the SAVE America Act that would potentially disenfranchise millions of voters, or restricting mail-in voting, he’s trying his damndest to make sure that [in] eligible people can’t vote. That’s illegal!” she shrieked.

Every single one of the Democrat operatives who appeared at this rally for totalitarianism: Khanna, Oberlander, Jimbo Himes, Steve “Crocka” Meskers — all of them screamed about the threat to freedom posed by Trump; none of them addressed U.S. Senator Slokin’s promise to silence all who oppose the Democrat Socialist’s plan for our future. Funny, that.
