A million Knicks fans held a parade in Manhattan today to celebrate the Knicks championship. Making it the second June parade that celebrates men who are good at handling balls. Mayor Mom Donnie gave every member of the team their own key to the city and afterward every criminal the keys to their homes. It was one of the largest parades in the city's history with the team kicking it off at Battery Park

and ending in Madonna's hot tub. All right. Joy Behar said she warned Vice President J.D. Vance that he should be nervous when he appeared on the view because the girls have many receipts. She left out that they were for hay and feed. Oh, boy. The man who had sex with a corpse

on a New York City subway has been sentenced to, Five years in prison, causing one nervous woman to immediately call her lawyer. Longer than five years. A high school French teacher was fired for having girls students kiss each other during class. Parents were appalled, but the male students claim it was the greatest class they've ever taken. The Obama Presidential Library opened today. Celebbs like Springsteen and John Legend were there.

Stevie Wonder also showed up, and even he said the library looked terrible. Michelle Obama revealed that she performed the Heimlich maneuver on a choking friend. And that's refreshing, a first lady that saves someone from choking. And finally, the city of Annapolis, Maryland, put out an emergency preparedness guide, claiming that gay people are more likely to be affected by natural disasters. And it's true. Hurricane Dawn has blown every gay and town. Was that necessary? I don't know if that was necessary. Let's pretend that never happened.

Plus, that signature, wait, for this price, moment. Old Navy's drapeed denim wide leg. So Janice Lewis George won this week's D.C. mayoral primary. And just like her fellow Democrat socialist Mom Dani, she's promising all sorts of free stuff, from transit to child care. True, even the chalk outlines around your corpse come free of charge. Meanwhile, in New York, another Democratic socialist named Dariol Liza Chival. Bally, yay, is running for Congress. She advocates seizing private property, abolishing police and borders, and called all deportation wrong.

All that's missing is famine. Swish. Yeah, thank you. And she even doubled down when asked recently. All deportation is wrong. Is that something you still believe? That phrase, yes. I still believe that all deportations are wrong.

That would seem to also include people who were communicating. convicted of breaking U.S. criminal law. Is the deportation of those people wrong? Yes. Great. So vile rapists get to stay. It's like Motel 6 on Epstein Island. Would have been nice to ask a follow-up question about the consequences of such policies, but they rarely do. So why is socialism still a thing? Well, for one, socialism's appeal relies on deliberate ignorance of its role in history and the lack of knowledge of basic economic principles. In simple terms, it needs stupid people.

On top of that, socialism has the greatest publicist in history, academia, painting a picture that leaves out all the dark parts. It's like a pet shop that sells you a puppy without telling you it's from Chernobyl. But hey, the fifth leg is free. So they push the theory, never the body count. Yet these socialists are fine by the Dems because to them it's still a win. They're called Democrat Socialists, after all, which is a tell. Socialists must employ a cushier name because the real name scares people.

Socialism is bad, but Democrat socialism sounds milder. It's like renaming AIDS, fun AIDS. But socialism is only popular before the bill arrives. And they always rely on our wallets when it all goes south. Mass migration raises housing costs while lowering wages. Undeteered crime makes stores raise their prices, then go out of business. And when the debt hits, they offer a worse solution. Taxing the remaining capitalists, they spent years attacking.

They create nothing and sell resentful people the notion of leaching off the success of others. And as the rich people leave, the left consolidate their power and never have to prove it works. They just have to say that capitalism is worse. Because if you want people to embrace a terrible idea, like socialism, invent a nightmarish alternative. Tell them the planet is dying. Democracy is ending. Everyone will be homeless, broke, and eating canned cat food by the end of the year.

In other words, the way Kathy Griffin lives today. And the old socialists who know socialism kills, they never tell the young zealots. Hell, Bernie's been selling socialism for decades. He talks about free college, yet skips over the shortages of luxury items like food. He talks equality, but we end up equally miserable, except, of course, for him. Worse, he sounds like he hasn't taken a good dump in six weeks. Finally, those like him manipulate people's compassion, convincing you that capitalism is greedy, socialism is cuddly.

No, capitalism raised more people out of poverty than anything in history, and socialism in its various forms has killed more people than Dr. Vouchy on his period. Fouchy. Why is that? Well, one depends on enterprise and the other on envy. Capitalism says, if you see someone excel, why not emulate them? But envy says no, it's just easier to mock achievement than demand your own share. Which socialism will give you no strings attached except the strings that control you. See, socialism ignores human nature by taking away the incentive to do stuff for yourself. You start expecting and then demanding others to do the stuff for you. This might be the worst tax of all. It's not on your paycheck, but on your own individual ambition. It doesn't just kill economies. It kills your soul.
