Recovering Republican. Ordinary, semi retired SoCal contractor concerned for the future of our Republic. Fiscally conservative and socially liberal. A true conservative conserves, a Republican conservative squanders.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

CNN: "Right now the Chinese communist state media are allowed on the White House grounds, but we are not. I think that says it all." TRUMP IS THE COMMUNIST.

Assistant AG Harmeet Dhillon says the DOJ is close to enlisting 1,000 federal election monitors to observe the upcoming midterms. But in a recent interview, Dhillon called the federal officials “observers” instead of “monitors.” Here’s why the distinction is important: https://demdock.com/4romNad

ICE has a bigger budget than the Marine Corps & still conned Congress out of $20M more for bodycams. Swore every agent would wear one by August. It’s September and ICE shot an Austinite in the back. They say there was no camera. They’re liars with masks and a blank check from Trump.

Iran has just declared that the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until the orange felon is removed from power. Looks like Iran has held all the cards from the very beginning of this illegal disastrous war. The orange felon and drunkard rapist fox host should be in jail.

It doesn’t really matter if you believe this is a phenomenon because of human action / inaction (like I do) or not. We are where we are and should absolutely do everything we can to reverse it!!

Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.

TODD BLANCHE: Rest assured that we’re working hand in hand with HHS and the FDA and the White House and President Trump’s team to get permanent solutions so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state.

We destroyed Irans military then had to go back to fighting the non existent military but had to stop because we were using too many expensive missiles attacking the not-military because we weren’t flying over the country with no military because their non military was still a threat to our planes.

Todd Blanche is violating federal law by covering up the Epstein files. Rather than confirming him as attorney general, the Senate ought to demand his prosecution.

After watching some of the Sunday morning shows bestow accolades on the passing of Sen. Graham, I'm still going to agree with Steve Schmidt here. I know people who met Graham years ago and they maintain his handshake was akin to putting your hand in a bowl of cold spagetti.

Lindsey Graham was a simple, tragic man to understand. He lacked a moral core. The great empty spaces of his life were filled with an insatiable need for “relevance.” He found it as a cast member in the most malignant reality show ever made. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/lindsey-kn...

Prediction - McConnell will resign on or shortly after August 3rd to avoid a special election. He will, if at all possible, continue to control the Senate from the grave.
