The Boldness of Mazi Pilip
The Republican from Long Island is just the live wire to lead the GOP response to the ilk of Congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Could Mazi Pilip be the answer to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and her ilk? That’s our hope after her interview with our A.R. Hoffman. The GOP majority in the House is down to but two seats. So the special election on February 13 on Long Island will give voters of New York’s third district a chance to boost the GOP’s slender margin in the House and bolster efforts to tame overspending, control the border, and rein in regulatory abuses.
Even if Republicans had a more comfortable position in the House, the merits of the GOP nominee over her Democratic rival, Thomas Suozzi, are clear. Like Ms. Omar, Ms. Pilip is an immigrant from Africa. The youthful Ms. Pilip was born in Ethiopia to Jewish parents. She was airlifted to Israel at 12 and later served in the paratroopers’ brigade in the IDF. She moved to America, settling at Great Neck, Nassau County, and now has seven children.
