When the left mocks conservatives for calling out aspects of their agenda, people should pay attention. If Democrats and their allies in the activist media lambast people on the right who make accusations of a wish to take Americans’ guns, it’s because the progressive left really does want to take their guns.

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio recently demonstrated that this principle is also applicable when it comes to the redistribution of wealth. Prominent leftists ridicule conservatives who point out their socialist tendencies, especially when it comes to economics. But it appears that much of the criticism leveled at the left is on point.
DeBlasio Accidentally Spills The Beans
Mayor de Blasio said the quiet part out loud during a Dec. 18 press conference in which he discussed the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak. He said that the “COVID era has taught” him that “fighting disparities” should be a top priority:
“And we need to do better, and we will, and that means a commitment to fighting disparities and inequality in every part of the life of New York City. And that certainly takes us to education, where if you’re talking about the problems of disparity, if you’re talking about structural racism, certainly policing is not the only area to talk about. There are many areas to talk about, and education must be front and center.”
“And from the beginning, what I tried to focus on was a very simple concept; equity and excellence — that we needed to profoundly change the distribution of resources. I like to say very bluntly; our mission is to redistribute wealth. A lot of people bristle at that phrase. That is in fact the phrase we need to use.”
Well, de Blasio at least earns points for honesty, right? The mayor continued: “We have been doing this work for seven years – to more equitably redistribute resources throughout our school system.”

Take Democrats At Their Word
The New York City mayor is not the only Democrat leader who has called for wealth redistribution. The concept has been championed by the likes of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and several others.
In many cases, leftists conceal their redistributionist agenda by simply pushing for higher taxes on the rich or hiding it in pie-in-the-sky legislative proposals like the Green New Deal. But the objective is the same nonetheless: They wish to push the country further toward their vision of a Marxist utopia.

COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.
Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
