  1. And the GOP Supermajority had to override the veto by Governor Beshear to pass this legislation. Most commentators agree that Beshear, if given the opportunity, will ignore the state legislature, appoint a Democrat and dare the appointment to be challenged in court. He loses nothing by doing so. Even if the court immediately stays his appointment, that will just leave the seat infilled, which is another option he has, so why not give it a go? He has already shown his intent by vetoing the bill, so why would he not choose to challenge this law?
  2. The GOP can’t let that happen. Beshear will appoint a Democrat to fill in before a Special Election.
  3. This move was never meant to squeeze Moscow. It was all about maintaining the supply volume, while setting a cost ceiling, to prevent cost gouging by Russia, which would inevitably be filled by the OPEC bloc. if you wanted to squeeze Russia, follow the last President’s playbook. Oh, wait. We can’t do that. Sleepy Joe guaranteed our return to energy dependence back in 2021 😒
  4. But they don’t ignore it. They actively treat anything they disagree with as disinformation and accept the opposite of what the evidence presents as the “real” situation. Gone are the days of the informed public, supported by an objective, fact-driven media. Trust in the media machine no longer exists, crushed under the weight of agenda-driven. Now we have a divided and factionalized public, entrenched in positions they refuse to consider changing, owing to their deep-seated distrust of the mainstream news outlets.
  5. He can’t release the audio tapes, he’s too busy organizing his involuntary suicide ☠️
  6. He’s working hard at things like … remembering to put his underwear on BEFORE his pants 🤪
  7. And the White House is placing the blame with Governor Hochul and Mayor Adams. Surely it should be the other way round? 🤔 Still, if the Democrats responsible for this unfolding fiasco wise up and realise that securing the border and enforcing the laws we have on the books already will go some way to resolving the issue, we may finally get some progress in stemming the human tide pouring across our Southern border. Or not, which remains far more likely. 🙁
  8. Biden’s DOJ is now suing SpaceX for discriminatory hiring practices, in that they will only hire US Citizens and LPRs 🤔 https://www.space.com/department-of-justice-sues-spacex-hiring-discrimination
  9. The majority of pre-war Germans were good with Hitler, too 🙁
  10. I would like to know why I (non-US citizen), with a NYS area code, residing somewhat above 9,000 ft above sea level (so not IN NYS) am getting texts from a Democrat senatorial candidate in TX, asking for donations. 🤪
  11. Well, this is interesting 🤔 A Russian embassy publishing a map showing Crimea as belonging to Ukraine? https://www.newsweek.com/russian-embassy-releases-map-recognizing-crimea-ukraine-1822820?amp=1
  12. All day and every day … if you are a Republican. If you are a Democrat, that’s just the price of doing business 😒
  13. It’s cute that you tried to work in a Nazi reference and tie it back to DJT and his previous administration. Unfortunately, on the balance of evidence relating to governmental control, persecution of political opponents, weaponization of the alphabetti-spaghetti of governmental agencies, the appropriation of the mass media for propaganda purposes and the censorship of opposing thought and opinion, the current administration is far closer to the National Socialist ideal than DJT and the GOP will ever be. And even then, “some language experts” equate a putsch to a failed coup. Looking at the numbers, there were 2,000 trying to overthrow a state’s government. January 6th was 200 protesters led by an idiot in a moo-hat, in your words trying to overthrow the government of a country 4x the size of Germany now. Without weapons. When half of them were freely let in. The comparison is simply not there. But the press and the Democrat Party will keep pounding their Big Lie until it has outlived its usefulness. None of the above could be classed as insurrections, either. As the title of #3 on the list states, they were protests, nothing more. And citing Wikipedia?
  14. People using the term insurrection really need to learn English 😒 Better still, they need to learn what a real insurrection looks like from history, not the pathetic adoption of the term by the American leftist propaganda machine trying to interfere in the 2024 Presidential Election.
  15. Teachers’ unions are a cancer ☠️
  16. Does he have the American equivalent of the “Kremlin Flu”?
  17. … is all you need to know to understand how morally corrupt this decision will be proven to be. 😒
  18. Fear and money, with a side of repeated election irregularity 😒
  19. So, maybe 1.27% of the population, who tune into the DNC propaganda machine every night to get their daily fix of TDS. Meanwhile, the overwhelmingly sane majority of the country are thinking …
  20. It is not for Sleepy Joe to put forward a robust plan to end the war. There is zero possibility that the antagonist in the Ukraine conflict will be amenable to an American solution. The only way Sleepy Joe can effect an end to the show is to commit US forces to end the Russian resistance to the Ukrainian counteroffensive before they run out of personnel. And that’s a “Hell! No!” from every sane person in the West. Given proportional support from the start, this conflict could and should have been resolved well before now. But the West has dragged its collective feet, doing just enough to keep things going and not enough to provide a decisive advantage. It’s almost as if allowing Ukraine to achieve victory was not the agenda in play here.
  21. Anything to keep DJT front and centre of the media cycle. If everyone sees him on the news every day and is continually reminded of the 94 separate counts across 4 indictments, then he must be guilty, right? “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
