Maria Elvira Salazar, R-Fla.,\u00a0introduced\u00a0the concurrent resolution.<\/p>\n<p>The New York Post\u00a0reported\u00a0that it passed in a bipartisan 285-98 vote. All opposition came from Democrats, and two Democratic members voted present.<\/p>\n<p>But 86 House Democrats voted in support of the resolution.<\/p>\n<p>The text states that Congress denounces socialism in all forms and opposes the adoption of socialist policies in the United States. Salazar has spoken about her parents fleeing Cuba after Fidel Castro took power.<\/p>\n<p>Several elected officials who endorsed Mamdani closely identify with socialist political views. They include Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.\u00a0and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.<\/p>\n<p>The vote was held soon after Mamdani arrived at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. He is scheduled to speak with the president in the afternoon about a range of issues.<\/p>\n<p>Trump said during a radio interview that he expected the meeting to be civil. Mamdani said on Thursday that he plans to bring up questions about the cost of living.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, R-N.Y., argued during debate on the resolution that socialism and communism share the same foundations.<\/p>\n<p>She referenced her mother\u2019s departure from Cuba in 1959 and said that policies linked to socialism have led to restrictions on private property and government control of major economic sectors. She said these ideas come from the writings of Karl Marx.<\/p>\n<p>Malliotakis and other members also cited recent examples from Venezuela. They said the country\u2019s socialist government produced economic collapse and worsening living standards.<\/p>\n<p>The resolution lists the record of several governments that adopted socialist systems before transitioning into full communist control.<\/p>\n<p>It cites Russia under Vladimir Lenin and Josef Stalin, China under Mao Zedong, Cuba under Fidel Castro, and other nations. The text states that these governments produced famine, mass killings, and severe repression.<\/p>\n<p>The resolution notes the estimated death tolls from the Soviet gulag system and the Great Leap Forward in China. It also states that millions have died in North Korea through starvation under the rule of Kim Jong Un.<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., introduced a companion resolution in the Senate. Both resolutions were filed in September before Mamdani won the general election for New York City mayor.<\/p>\n<p>A Simple Stretch, A Lifetime of Lessons: Alain\u2019s Journey of Resilience<\/p>\n<p>It started as a moment like any other. Alain reached up, trying to ease a stiff arm after hours of work and thought, \u201cJust a small stretch.\u201d But that ordinary motion revealed something far deeper: a reminder that our bodies and minds carry the weight of every past challenge, every hidden strain.<\/p>\n<p>What seemed harmless became a catalyst for reflection, revealing vulnerabilities and strengths Alain hadn\u2019t fully acknowledged.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Childhood Between Stability and Chaos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alain was born in 1935, on the outskirts of Paris, into a family that appeared stable on the surface.<\/p>\n<p>His mother was a dedicated pharmacist, his father a cinema owner, yet by age three, divorce and remarriages fractured his world. Household shifts, half-siblings, and divided attention became the backdrop of his formative years.<\/p>\n<p>Raised largely by nannies while his parents navigated their new lives, Alain felt unseen, invisible, and often isolated. Yet, these early experiences cultivated an inner resilience. He learned independence, curiosity, and cleverness\u2014tools that would serve him well as life continued to demand adaptability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Navigating Education and Early Work<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>School offered little refuge. Alain struggled to fit in, frequently switching classrooms and earning the label of \u201ctroublemaker.\u201d Friendships were fleeting, and academic success was elusive. But in adversity, Alain found practical lessons: navigating social dynamics, understanding authority, and thinking on his feet.<\/p>\n<p>To survive, he turned to work. From apprenticing in his stepfather\u2019s butcher shop to running errands in a small retail store, he learned responsibility, discipline, and the value of perseverance. These early jobs, though unglamorous, forged the work ethic that would underpin his future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Army: Discipline Meets Growth<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Enlisting in the military proved transformative. Stripped of freedom yet given structure, Alain discovered a new sense of purpose. Drill routines, teamwork, and responsibility instilled discipline and resilience. For the first time, he felt part of something larger than himself, while camaraderie helped fill emotional gaps left by his fractured childhood. Physical strength, mental fortitude, and self-reliance all became hallmarks of the man he was evolving into.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Life Lessons in Civilians\u2019 Clothing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Returning to civilian life, Alain worked as a waiter\u2014a seemingly mundane role that honed patience, empathy, and social intelligence. He learned to read people, anticipate needs, and resolve conflicts. These skills, quietly developed, would later become invaluable, proving that even ordinary experiences can cultivate extraordinary growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Stretch That Spoke Volumes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Years of labor, both physical and emotional, had left traces on Alain\u2019s body. One routine stretch triggered unexpected arm pain, a signal that his body, like his mind, retained the history of challenges faced. This minor incident became symbolic: a reminder that resilience involves not only enduring hardship but also acknowledging limits and listening to oneself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resilience in Motion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alain\u2019s journey illustrates the layered nature of strength. His turbulent childhood fostered empathy. School struggles encouraged adaptability. Early work taught discipline. Military life reinforced resilience. Every step, every challenge, contributed to his identity. The arm pain from a simple stretch became a metaphor for life itself: unexpected obstacles reveal hidden depths and cultivate growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reflections on a Life Shaped by Adversity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Looking back, Alain sees the paradox in his story: pain, neglect, and instability prepared him for life\u2019s unpredictability. What once seemed burdensome became foundational. His story underscores that personal growth often arises not from comfort, but from navigating discomfort with awareness, courage, and persistence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: Finding Strength in the Ordinary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alain\u2019s life\u2014from a neglected child to a resilient young man\u2014demonstrates that character is built in the quiet, everyday moments. That simple stretch, the early jobs, the lessons of hardship:<\/p>\n<p>these shaped a person capable of facing life with strength and empathy. His story reminds us that greatness is rarely forged in grand gestures; it emerges from the small, often unnoticed challenges that prepare us for the unexpected.<\/p>\n<p>As the federal government shutdown approaches its fourth week, pressure is mounting inside the Democratic Party to find a way out of the impasse that has left hundreds of thousands of federal employees unpaid and key social programs at risk of disruption.<\/p>\n<p>The shutdown \u2014 now widely referred to by critics as the \u201cSchumer Shutdown\u201d \u2014 began after negotiations between congressional Democrats and Republicans collapsed over spending levels and border policy. What initially appeared to be a short-term standoff has turned into a prolonged test of endurance that is beginning to take a toll on both the economy and public opinion.<\/p>\n<p>Mounting Pressure on Senate Democrats<\/p>\n<p>According to a report from The Hill, Senate Democrats have quietly begun exploring off-ramps to end the stalemate without appearing to capitulate to Republican demands. Lawmakers and aides say the Democratic caucus is feeling the squeeze from multiple directions \u2014 federal workers, unions, and vulnerable constituents who are beginning to feel the economic strain.<\/p>\n<p>One of the ideas under discussion involves supporting a Republican proposal to ensure federal employees \u2014 both essential and furloughed \u2014 receive paychecks while the government remains closed. While Democrats initially resisted piecemeal funding bills, the worsening political optics are forcing them to reconsider.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, Democratic leaders are drafting legislation to extend funding for critical social safety net programs, including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Without renewed funding, millions of low-income families could face interruptions in benefits within weeks.<\/p>\n<p>A Senate Democratic aide told The Hill,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re trying to make sure that the most vulnerable Americans don\u2019t bear the brunt of Washington\u2019s dysfunction. But we also need to protect the integrity of the broader funding negotiations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Political Tide Turns<\/p>\n<p>What makes this shutdown different from past ones is the shifting political perception among voters. In previous standoffs, Democrats often managed to frame the narrative around Republican obstruction. This time, however, polling data suggests the public is holding Democrats responsible for the gridlock.<\/p>\n<p>A recent Rasmussen survey found that 54% of likely voters blame Senate Democrats for the ongoing shutdown, compared to 39% who fault Republicans. Independent voters, a key political bloc, also appear to be breaking against the majority party in the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>Political analyst Caroline Bixby noted,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 2018 and 2019, Democrats successfully branded the shutdown as a result of President Trump\u2019s immigration policies. This time, they control the Senate, and the public expects them to lead. It\u2019s harder to point fingers when you\u2019re the one steering the chamber.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republicans, meanwhile, have seized the opportunity to portray the standoff as a failure of leadership by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) accused Democrats of \u201cplaying politics with paychecks,\u201d saying his party had already passed multiple funding bills that Democrats refused to consider.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve done our job,\u201d Johnson told reporters on Monday. \u201cWe\u2019ve passed targeted funding measures for veterans, border security, and federal workers. The Senate could end this shutdown today if they chose to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Growing Frustration Among Federal Workers<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Washington\u2019s political posturing, the human cost of the shutdown is becoming increasingly visible. Tens of thousands of federal employees across the country are now entering their fourth week without pay, forcing some to turn to food banks, community organizations, and short-term loans.<\/p>\n<p>The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), the largest federal workers\u2019 union in the U.S., has been urging both parties to reach a compromise but has recently directed its frustration squarely at Senate Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>AFGE National President Everett Kelley said in a statement,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFederal workers are not bargaining chips. Our members deserve to be paid for the work they do, and this shutdown must end now. We are calling on Senate leadership to pass a clean continuing resolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to union data, nearly 800,000 workers have been affected by the shutdown, including employees at the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Department of Agriculture (USDA). With back pay uncertain, morale is plummeting across agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Programs for Families and Children at Risk<\/p>\n<p>The economic ripple effects extend beyond federal employees. Programs like SNAP and WIC, which provide essential nutrition assistance to millions of Americans, are now on the verge of running out of funds.<\/p>\n<p>A USDA official told reporters that benefit payments could be disrupted within two weeks if Congress fails to act. That could affect more than 7 million low-income women, infants, and children who rely on monthly food vouchers.<\/p>\n<p>Senate Democrats are reportedly drafting legislation to extend funding for those programs, along with emergency provisions to keep school lunch programs operational. However, Republicans have argued that such targeted bills only prolong the broader stalemate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats want to patch up their political problem with temporary fixes,\u201d said Sen. John Thune (R-SD). \u201cThe responsible approach is to reopen the government completely and negotiate a full-year budget that controls spending.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schumer\u2019s Balancing Act<\/p>\n<p>For Majority Leader Schumer, the political calculus is complex. He faces competing pressures \u2014 from progressives urging him to hold firm on social spending and border policy, and from moderates anxious about the growing political fallout.<\/p>\n<p>Behind closed doors, Senate aides describe a divided Democratic caucus. Some senators representing swing states, such as Jon Tester (D-MT) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH), have privately expressed concern that the shutdown could damage their reelection prospects if it continues into November.<\/p>\n<p>One Democratic strategist, speaking anonymously, admitted:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe polling is bad, and the narrative is slipping away. The longer this goes on, the harder it will be to recover politically. Schumer needs a win \u2014 or at least an exit ramp that doesn\u2019t look like surrender.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republicans Sensing Momentum<\/p>\n<p>Republicans, sensing political momentum, are showing little appetite to compromise. They have framed the shutdown as part of a broader debate over government spending and fiscal discipline, emphasizing the need to reduce the deficit and secure the border.<\/p>\n<p>Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats created this crisis by refusing to accept even modest spending reforms. They\u2019re trying to spend their way out of every problem, and the American people are tired of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>House Republicans, meanwhile, have continued to pass smaller funding packages that would reopen parts of the government, effectively forcing Democrats to vote against measures to pay federal employees, veterans, and active-duty military personnel \u2014 votes that have been used to paint Democrats as obstructionist.<\/p>\n<p>Economic Costs Rising<\/p>\n<p>Economists warn that if the shutdown extends into next month, it could begin to slow GDP growth and undermine investor confidence. A report by Moody\u2019s Analytics estimated that each week of the shutdown could shave 0.1% off quarterly economic output.<\/p>\n<p>With holiday travel approaching, disruptions in air traffic control, passport processing, and national park operations are likely to intensify. Small businesses dependent on federal contracts or tourism have already reported financial losses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery day this continues, the pain spreads,\u201d said economist Diane Swonk. \u201cShutdowns don\u2019t just affect Washington \u2014 they ripple across local economies and household budgets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Looking Ahead<\/p>\n<p>As the shutdown nears the one-month mark, Washington\u2019s political theater shows no sign of resolution. Democrats are increasingly eager to change the narrative, but doing so without appearing to fold remains a delicate balancing act.<\/p>\n<p>Insiders say behind-the-scenes discussions are ongoing, with both parties testing possible compromise frameworks \u2014 including short-term continuing resolutions or agreements on specific budget caps.<\/p>\n<p>Still, without a breakthrough, Americans may be facing a second missed paycheck for federal employees and an increasingly frustrated electorate heading into the holiday season.<\/p>\n<p>Political veteran Larry Sabato summed up the situation bluntly:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShutdowns are a political gamble. This one has gone on long enough that everyone\u2019s losing \u2014 but some are losing faster than others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The political ascent of New York progressive\u00a0<strong>Zohran Mamdani<\/strong>\u00a0has hit an immediate roadblock following his high-profile threat against President Donald Trump. The newly elected official, whose victory was fueled by aggressive rhetoric, quickly drew the attention of the former President, who issued a stark warning regarding Mamdani\u2019s political viability and the financial realities of New York City.<\/p>\n<p>The confrontation highlights the deep ideological chasm currently fracturing New York politics and underscores the precarious position of a new administration that must now reconcile radical spending promises with a rapidly shrinking tax base.<\/p>\n<p>Mamdani\u2019s victory acceptance speech was characterized by highly aggressive rhetoric, including a direct challenge to the former President.<\/p>\n<p>In his speech, Mamdani issued a combative warning:\u00a0<strong>\u201cSo hear me, President Trump, when I say this: To get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This rhetoric, which some New York Democrats deemed \u201ccrazy,\u201d was an immediate attempt by Mamdani to solidify his image as the uncompromising anti-Trump figurehead.<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump responded to the threat with characteristic scorn, combining a historical critique of Mamdani\u2019s ideology with a clear political warning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Ideological Dismissal:<\/strong>\u00a0Trump framed Mamdani\u2019s progressive platform as inherently flawed, stating:\u00a0<strong>\u201cFor a thousand years, communism has not worked. It just, communism or the concept of communism has not worked. I tend to doubt it\u2019s going to work this time.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Political Threat:<\/strong>\u00a0Crucially, Trump used his potential influence over federal funding as leverage, cautioning that Mamdani\u00a0<strong>\u201chas to be a little bit respectful of Washington, because if he\u2019s not, he doesn\u2019t have a chance of succeeding.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Trump cemented the power dynamic, stating that Mamdani should be reaching out to the federal government, not issuing threats.<\/p>\n<p>Mamdani\u2019s ambitious campaign promises\u2014including \u201ccity-run grocery stores, free buses, universal child care, a rent freeze\u201d\u2014rely on massive financial resources, which are rapidly eroding due to an ongoing taxpayer flight from New York.<\/p>\n<p>The newly elected mayor\u2019s platform is built on the promise of making goods and services \u201cfree\u201d by aggressively taxing the wealthy and corporations. However, this model faces immediate challenges:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shrinking Tax Base:<\/strong>\u00a0The overall New York area has seen a\u00a0<strong>mass exodus<\/strong>\u00a0of an estimated one million people since the COVID era, with approximately 700,000 fleeing New York City specifically. These departing residents are the very high-earners whose taxes Mamdani needs to fund his agenda.<\/p>\n<p>A major moment of vulnerability for Mamdani came immediately after the election when he quickly pivoted from campaigning to fundraising. Despite his platform of providing \u201cfree stuff,\u201d his transition team issued an urgent call for donations:<\/p>\n<p><strong>The U-Turn:<\/strong>\u00a0Mamdani\u2019s campaign, having previously told supporters to \u201cstop sending us money\u201d during the election phase, abruptly reversed course:\u00a0<strong>\u201cYou can start again. This transition requires staff, research, and an infrastructure\u2026 So, I hope you\u2019ll make a donation.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a clear demonstration of political awareness, Mamdani quickly pivoted his focus to optics and political coalition building, recognizing that women were the driving force behind his victory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Mandate:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The aggressive nature of Mamdani\u2019s political debut mirrors a concerning trend in American politics where ideological purity and confrontation are prioritized over compromise and civility, as evidenced by the recent victory of Virginia\u2019s Jay Jones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Unacceptable Rhetoric:<\/strong>\u00a0Jay Jones, who won the Virginia Attorney General race, was exposed for past messages where he advocated for violence against political opponents\u2019 children, suggesting that their death would make Republicans change their views.<\/p>\n<p>The Mamdani-Trump clash and the unsettling Jay Jones victory underscore the ideological and financial turbulence facing the country.<\/p>\n<p>Mamdani\u2019s strategy is clear: embrace the confrontation and consolidate the progressive base. However, this ideological purity comes with a high price tag. With the tax base fleeing and federal funds uncertain, Mamdani faces the immediate challenge of proving that his socialist ideology is a viable governing philosophy and not simply a recipe for fiscal disaster.<\/p>\n<p>As the political mask \u201cslowly comes off,\u201d the true test for Mamdani will be whether he can transform his combative campaign rhetoric into stable, successful governance, or if New York City is simply entering another chapter of ideological chaos.<\/p>\n<p>A retired New York City financier once known as the \u201cright-hand man\u201d of billionaire George Soros has been indicted on charges of abusing women.<\/p>\n<p>According to the\u00a0New York Post, Howard Rubin, 70, allegedly used his Manhattan penthouse as a \u201csecret sex dungeon\u201d at the center of the case.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement released Thursday, the Justice Department said Rubin and his assistant, Jennifer Powers, have been charged with trafficking and transporting women across state lines for sexual encounters with Rubin.<\/p>\n<p>A bank fraud charge was lodged against Rubin \u201cin connection with misrepresentations made to a bank in the course of financing Powers\u2019s mortgage for the Texas home of Powers and her husband,\u201d according to the\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is in this secret sex dungeon that Rubin, now 66, is accused of having committed violent acts and sexual assault against a number of women, including actual Playboy playmates. A civil trial, with six of his seven alleged victims seeking at least $18 million, is scheduled for November,\u201d The Post reported.<\/p>\n<p>Among other alleged acts of deprivation, The Post reported that Rubin has been accused of \u201cbeat[ing a woman\u2019s] breasts so badly that her right implant flipped\u201d \u2014 an injury so severe that, according to court documents, her \u201cplastic surgeon was not even willing to operate on her breasts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors allege Rubin paid women up to $5,000 for BDSM encounters. However, several women contend they never consented to the level of violence and humiliation they say he carried out during those sessions.<\/p>\n<p>Another plaintiff claims that, while Rubin allegedly had her bound in his \u2018dungeon,\u2019 he told her \u201cI\u2019m going to rape you like I rape my daughter\u201d and then, according to the complaint, forced sex on her against her will.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRubin has three children with his estranged wife, including at least one daughter,\u201d The Post added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought he was a nice guy. He was a nebbishy Jewish guy and totally normal. I was surprised to hear about him having that apartment [with a sex dungeon],\u201d a trader who worked with Rubin at Soros Fund Management, created by billionaire investor George Soros, told The Post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs alleged, the defendants used Rubin\u2019s wealth to mislead and recruit women to engage in commercial sex acts, where Rubin then tortured women beyond their consent, causing lasting physical and\/or psychological pain, and in some cases physical injuries,\u201d Joseph Nocella Jr., United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York said in the DOJ release.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s arrests show that no one who engages in sex trafficking, in this case in luxury hotels and a penthouse apartment that featured a so-called sex \u2018dungeon,\u2019 is above the law, and that they will be brought to justice. Human beings are not chattel to be exploited for sex and sadistically abused, and anyone who thinks otherwise can expect to find themselves in handcuffs and facing federal prosecution like these defendants,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor many years, Howard Rubin and Jennifer Powers allegedly spent at least one million dollars to finance the commercial sexual torture of multiple women via a national trafficking network. The defendants allegedly exploited Rubin\u2019s status to ensnare their prospective victims and forced them to endure unthinkable physical trauma before silencing any outcries with threats of legal recourse,\u201d stated FBI Assistant Director in Charge Christopher G. Raia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FBI will continue to apprehend any trafficker who sexually abuses others for twisted gratification,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis was not a one-man show. While Rubin dehumanized these women with abhorrent sexual acts, Powers is alleged to have run the day-to-day operations of the enterprise and got paid generously for her efforts,\u201d said Harry T. Chavis, Jr., IRS investigative special agent in charge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The House approved a resolution with dozens of Democrats in support on Friday that condemns socialism and cites its damaging historical record in multiple countries.
