ALL MY FLORIDA ACQUAINTANCES SEEM TO BE WRITING THIS SAME COLUMN LATELY: I fled NYC for Florida — Sorry, Mamdani-fearing Democrats, we’re full!

To this day many Floridians habitually send real-estate listings to their ideologically aligned friends up north — those who longed to join the “Great Migration” but whose work or family obligations made them stay put.

When those friends complained about their deteriorating schools, the congestion tax or rising crime, we’d send back an alligator gif, a Florida flag emoji or a video of tough-talking DeSantis describing the fate of protesters who dare to block Florida traffic.

Come join us, we’d say.

Now a different group is looking in our direction — and we’re not feeling so encouraging.

These people didn’t think the COVID restrictions that kept NYC children in masks outdoors through 2022 were too much.

They were fine with cashless bail and New York’s sanctuary city status.

Boys in girls’ sports? Who cares! They vote blue, no matter who.

But even these Democrats find Mamdani to be a bridge too far.

Read the whole thing.

AT THIS POINT YOU PRETTY MUCH EXPECT THIS KIND OF THING:

HOW ONE MAN IN PAKISTAN ALLEGEDLY FLEECED ARIZONA’S HEALTH CARE SYSTEM FOR $560M:

A man operating from Pakistan fleeced more than $560 million from Arizona’s safety-net health care system by sending in false claims for drug and alcohol treatment, according to a grand jury indictment filed in federal court.

Arizona authorities have investigated businesses associated with the man, Farrukh Ali, for two years. They had not brought charges against him until the June grand jury indictment.

The purported fraudulent billings paid to Ali would represent a staggering 20% of the entire statewide “sober living” scheme, which authorities have said involved as much as $2.5 billion.

Finally, somebody read one of Matthew Lesko’s Free Money books and really applied himself.

ABSOLUTELY:

In a saner America, quoting Marx aspirationally would have the same deserved effect on one’s political career as quoting Hitler aspirationally.

THIS IS CNN: Jake Tapper Is Paid Millions A Year To Not Know The News.

When the conversation shifted to the race against Mamdani, Tapper — whose network a jury found is actually fake news — probed Adams about his criticisms of his Democrat opponent. More specifically, the TV personality claimed the incumbent mayor “said recently that the Jewish community in New York should be concerned about him,” and asked, “What specifically has Mamdani said that you think is antisemitic?”

“Pro-Hamas,” Adams replied. “Hamas is a dangerous terrorist organization that should be destroyed. When you embrace the philosophies of Hamas, not only what they do to their own people, but what they did in Gaza, to lift them up and praise them, I think that’s a clear indicator that something is wrong with that.”

Clearly desperate to fulfill his role as a Democrat Party shill, Tapper leapt to Mamdani’s defense by declaring he had no idea what Adams was talking about.

“When did he praise Hamas?” Tapper asked. “I don’t recall him ever praising Hamas.”

It’s remarkable to watch a man who’s paid millions of dollars a year to know what’s happening in the political world to act dumbfounded about Mamdani’s checkered history.

Maybe Tapper could try watching Fox.

TERRORIST ATTACK: 82-year-old woman burned in Colorado firebomb attack has died, officials say.

The woman, named as Karen Diamond, was one of 15 people and a dog who were wounded on June 1 when an attacker bearing Molotov cocktails and what the FBI described as a “makeshift flamethrower” attacked the activists a “Run For Their Lives” event, which was attended by peaceful demonstrators calling for the release of Israeli hostages being held by Hamas since October 7, 2023.

Mohamed Sabry Soliman was indicted last week on 12 federal hate crime counts. He is now facing upgraded charges including two counts of first-degree murder, prosecutors said.

Investigators say Soliman told them he intended to kill the roughly 20 participants at the weekly demonstration on Boulder’s Pearl Street pedestrian mall. But he threw just two of his over two dozen Molotov cocktails while yelling “Free Palestine.”

They’re calling it a hate crime, but it looks more like terrorism to me.

TO BE FAIR, COMMIES DON’T REALLY CARE WHERE THE MONEY COMES FROM:

This is a bit embarrassing.
Mamdani has a plan for paying for his city-owned grocery stores. He's planning to tap into a $140 million pile of subsidies for "corporate grocery stores."
But that pile of money doesn't exist. He just misread a government website. (Link in reply) pic.twitter.com/sI2TTh3aB1

CHANGE? Israel in ‘advanced talks’ for deal to end hostilities with Syria, says senior official.

Israel and Syria are holding “advanced talks” on a bilateral agreement halting hostilities between the countries, a senior Israeli official told The Times of Israel on Monday.

The contacts are focused on coordination around security matters, said the official, who would not speculate on when a full peace deal between the two enemy states could turn into reality.

“Could it develop into something beyond [security arrangements]?” the official asked. “We will wait and see. For now, there isn’t anything concrete.”

“There is absolutely an aspiration to expand the Abraham Accords, and it’s no secret that we want to see Syria in this,” the official continued.

“And there may be an opportunity.”

At least tangentially related: Trump signs order dismantling decades of Syria sanctions.
