  1. Joe Biden: “It’s time to put Trump in a bullseye.” https://www.notus.org/republicans/republicans-joe-biden-bulls-eye-comment Waiting for the Palin-esque outrage at the incitement to political violence advocated by Good Ol’ Joe 😡
  2. If they want to keep their jobs come January, it will happen.
  3. Swap Trippier for Shaw. Keep the rest. if it’s going pear-shaped, substitute earlier.
  4. Perhaps the DOJ and FBI will now admit that right wing extremists are not the most likely domestic terror threat in this country.
  5. Still in the initial investigation stages, but currently … Shots were fired at President Trump Trump sustained what looks like a minor injury Two other rally attendees were shot One has been reported as deceased The shooter has reportedly been neutralised by law enforcement Secret Service claimed shooter is down There are pictures of a body on a roof.
  6. And now we will see how many people descend into instant judgement on political news items. 🙁 The number of WaPo commenters who are confident the Trump rally incident was staged, that no-one else was hurt, is insane. The derangement is beyond belief.
  7. We need to go back to the separation of news and opinion. We need to go back to the reporting of what has happened and what is happening and away from the what “might happen if” ramblings. We need to go back to getting the reporting done right, with facts and testimony to support it, rather than getting the reporting done first and let the facts wander along later. We need to stop thinking that late night comedians are reliable news sources. Most of all, as all of the above is as likely to happen as a Hillary Clinton presidency, we need to stop listening to one side of the story.
  8. Although the tackle didn’t affect the shot that Kane got away, it was high, studs-up and made contact, so I think the decision was the correct one. Regardless of the penalty, Simons’ first goal was fantastic, and Watkins’ last minute winner was almost as good. Sunday will be a fascinating contest. Spain will be the overwhelming favourites. But anyone who saw their match against France will know they faded badly in the second half, so this could be a lot tighter than people think, especially with England’s habit of leaving it as late as humanly possible to score. Should be fun.
  9. Why is the Catholic clergy targeted, when teachers seem to have minimal scrutiny? Priests don’t have unions.
  10. The closer we get to Kamala Harris getting the keys to the White House, the more I wish DJT would bring Tulsi Gabbard onto his team to remind people exactly why she got less than 1% support in the 2020 Democrat Primary race before she withdrew. it was evident from the start that she was the DNC’s preferred pick for 2020 and they have done everything they can to get their DEI-friendly pick into the Oval Office any which way they can. She would make a senile, frail and failing Joe Biden look competent. The USA would not survive a President Harris.
  11. And yet there is no outrage from the gun legislation lobby. It’s just business as usual, nothing to see here. It’s not the existing gun legislation failing to protect the citizenry. It’s just another holiday weekend in Chicago. The silence is deafening. Because they (the Democrat mayor, council and the gun legislation lobby) know that they do not want to address the root causes of the ongoing violence. To do so would cost them politically, in resistance from the populace to change, in the resistance to the populace to reducing/removing the social and welfare programs that have rendered employment income unnecessary and in the acknowledgement that additional firearm legislation is merely a dog-whistle for getting votes and would have no measurable impact on the death toll. In short, they would lose control. They would lose power. And that, to them, is unconscionable.
  12. Remember, “fair share” when it comes to taxation only applies to the wealthy (basically anyone who pays over the lowest tax bracket). How is it “fair” to demand anyone who doesn’t currently pay income tax to actually contribute to the system from which they benefit so much? 😗
  13. The racists had little to do with Kamala dropping out. Getting eviscerated on the debate stage by Tulsi Gabbard did that.
  14. She was savaged by a pack of hamsters on a sugar rush 😒
  15. What bill? According to the CBO, the tax cuts have netted positive income for the Federal Government.
  16. DC is, indeed, broken. And that is why the Washington Machine’s resistance to DJT’s first term and the coordinated effort to prevent a second term is so evident. There are so many within the Federal Government with a vested interest in not letting DJT back into the White House, because they know that if he gets in, their access to power will be finished. They can not let that happen. Which is why it must.
  17. The Senate Bill was DOA in the House of Representatives, because the immigration-related provisions were weak, and only a minor portion of the bill. The financial aid to Ukraine and Israel made up the bulk of it. H.R.2, on the other hand was a more focused, and tougher immigration measure, passed in the House before the Senate bill made in to the Senate, and was uniformly opposed by Democrats because it that. But the MSM rarely admits that H.R.2 even exists, because even that admission would validate the vote against the Senate bill.
  18. All the Supreme Court’s ruling did was clarify what, up until Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, Juan Merchan, Fani Willis, Alvin Bragg, Arthur Engoron, Letitia James, Jack Smith, et al decided to engage in what has appropriately been termed “lawfare”, had been understood as applicable to the office of POTUS. For example, without it, President Obama should be indicted for the extra-judicial murder of a 16 year-old American National, back in 2011. Do you see that happening? Without immunity such as outlined by SCOTUS, the office of the President would be nigh-on untenable. As for singling out Aileen Cannon, the wall of bad press can be put down to the MSM attacking any person who has a modicum of say in what happens to DJT and who does not actively want to see him punished, regardless of the legitimacy of the legal actions being taken against him. With regard to inflation, I seriously doubt any policy of DJT will fare worse than a second term Biden/DNC/Shadow Government administration. Immigration will again surge, regardless of any Democrat action at the Southern Border. Government spending will surge to meet the Far Left demands for expansion of government, social programs, and unrealistic green ambitions. In all likelihood, a second “Biden” term will make the financial woes of Jimmy Carter look like a roaring success.
  19. What’s this? Democrats complaining about others’ ethics while proving they don’t actually believe in ethics? I’m shocked, I tell you! Shocked! 😳
  20. And the best part of it is … … the whole thing was over, done and dusted inside 6 weeks, so everyone can go back to watching Corrie and Eastenders and forget about politics for another 5 years.
  21. Happy Independence Day, ye traitorous scum ☠️
  22. What the left will never admit is their relief that Barack Obama will now never be prosecuted for the extra-judicial killing of a 16 year-old American national.
  23. This wasn’t Operation Bubble Wrap. This was Operation Zorb Ball
  24. How is Joe Biden tanking America today? Not only is he still President, he is still “running” 🤣 for re-election. The world saw his debate performance on Thursday and the calculus going on in other world leaders’ minds right now doesn’t even countenance another 4 years of the shadow government trying to keep a frail, senile old fraud sufficiently on track to keep up appearances. What they are thinking about is the next six and a half months. Our allies are hoping and praying that nothing of consequence happens, that would require a confident, or even competent, response involving the USA. Meanwhile, our adversaries are looking for every angle to take advantage of the absence of leadership in the U.S., every way they can benefit or profit from the current incumbent’s failing mental and physical acuity. And the people propping up Ol’ Joe, helping him off stage because he is too frail to manage that simple task without help, directing policy decisions in his name to protect their own self-interest and power base, are adamant that he can continue and will not allow him to be set aside, despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Buckle up, folks. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.
