HAPPY STORY: Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis paves the way for logic and safety.
Ron DeSantis’s Florida is the unsung success story of coronavirus
WAExaminer, 2-3-21
Beginning Jan. 20, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo acquired a new problem. He cannot very well blame President Biden for his performance on the coronavirus, so he now lacks a federal scapegoat toward which to deflect blame for his own shortcomings.
Perhaps the best example of a large state succeeding amid this crisis is conservative Gov. Ron DeSantis’s Florida. Florida is larger in population than New York, more disproportionately elderly, visited by more potentially infected tourists, and (as of the last census) its population is more concentrated in urban areas. Yet somehow, in spite of all these disadvantages, Florida’s death rate from the coronavirus is roughly half that of the Empire State. (Before you leap to attribute this to the sunny weather, note that Arizona, Louisiana, and Mississippi are all in the top 10 for death rate, whereas frigid Vermont, Idaho, Maine, and Utah are near the bottom.)
If the goal were to minimize coronavirus deaths while also maximizing the openness of one’s state, the numbers bear out DeSantis’s success. In addition to having a much lower death rate, Florida had 25% fewer hospitalizations and 25% fewer new cases as of the end of January. In contrast to Cuomo’s heavy-handed vaccination policies, which had hospitals doing all the heavy lifting and resulted in many doses being thrown out rather than given to the “wrong” people, DeSantis has created drive-thru testing and vaccination sites and expects to administer more than 300,000 shots this week.
In contrast to Cuomo, DeSantis was unendingly crucified and vilified by the media for his far more targeted approach, which focused on protecting the most vulnerable while letting society and the economy function to the extent reasonably possible.
MSNBC Promo: Look at Our Obsequious Fawning Over Biden!
by Kyle Drennan, 2-3-21
In its latest promo, MSNBC touted two years of sycophantic coverage for Joe Biden on the campaign trail and right up through Inauguration Day. The star of the ad was reporter and reliable Biden fanboy Mike Memoli, who was shown lobbing softballs to the Democrat about his “political future,” coffee-drinking habits, and how it felt to win the White House.
CNN ratings plummet 44% in first week since Trump left office
by Phil Shiver, 2-2-21
Left-wing networks CNN and MSNBC relied almost exclusively on anti-Trump content to attract viewership over the past four years and now that the Republican president has exited office, those same networks are witnessing their ratings nosedive at unprecedented levels.
Juicy and lovely.
In the first week since Trump left office, CNN’s ratings during primetime hours (8 p.m. through 10 p.m. EST) plummeted by a whopping 44%, according to Variety Intelligence Platform’s analysis of the viewership data. To determine the changes in viewership, Variety analyzed data across two key metrics — the target news demographic of people ages 25-54 and total audience.
During the same week, MSNBC’s primetime ratings fell as well, though not as sharply as CNN’s. The network’s audience decreased nearly 20% during the 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. slots, and fell by 11% during the 9 p.m. slot.
Meanwhile, Fox News saw its primetime ratings decrease only slightly during the 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. slot and not at all at 8 p.m. when “Tucker Carlson Tonight” is broadcast.
The program hit hardest, according to Variety, was “Cuomo Prime Time” airing at 9 p.m., which saw its audience of 25-54 year-olds fall by more than half.
And since we’re here and talking about the Dwarf King, here’s what Brian Stelter says about Fox News. You know. Since his cable channel is doing so incredibly well.

Local Kroger Stores Close as California ‘Hero Pay’ Ordinance Backfires
by Brad Polombo, 2-2-21
new “Hero Pay” mandate in Long Beach, California has inadvertently cost some frontline grocery workers their jobs.
“Ralphs and Food 4 Less, both owned by the parent company Kroger, announced Monday that they will be closing 25% of their stores in Long Beach after the city council passed an ordinance requiring companies with over 300 employees nationwide to pay employees an extra $4 per hour,” local news outlet Fox 11 reports. Two stores in the area will be shut down.
A company spokesperson directly cited the city council’s ordinance mandating higher wages as the reason they are closing down.
Wowzer. Looks like jobs really ARE transportable.
The ordinance was passed with the stated intention of rewarding hard-working grocery store employees who have kept a vital service running throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Long Beach Mayor Robert Garcia was a key proponent of the measure and signed it into law. He argues it is justified because grocery store workers “have been on the frontlines of this pandemic and deserve this support.”
This is the standard Leftist bleat.
Similarly, Garcia and other supporters of the mandated wage hike argue that companies are just being selfish by closing down rather than paying their workers more. They point to the fact that Kroger has seen high levels of profit this year.
That’s the key word. MANDATED. But the truth is. . .
In truth, whether the company is being selfish and whether it’s really flush with cash (Kroger says these specific stores were already financially struggling) are both beside the point. This mandatory wage hike “honoring heroes” was passed by politicians eager to spend other people’s money and claim the credit. But like any minimum wage law, it was always going to have the unintended consequence of eliminating some jobs altogether.
Notice how sly are the American Media Maggots. This is the part you DON’T hear in their stories.
The minimum wage in Long Beach is already $14 per hour for employers with 26 or more employees. A $4 increase would therefore be $18 an hour, a nearly 30 percent raise for every employee. This amounts to an enormous spike in a grocery store’s labor costs, which are already one of the biggest expenses an enterprise usually faces.
Anyone familiar with the business already knows that margins in grocery stores are already thin. How’d you like to try to keep up with all the tenuous supply chains in the time of Wuhan-19?
This specific instance of wage mandates backfiring is just one example of a much broader trend. On the national level, the “Fight for $15” movement demanding a $15 federal minimum wage ostensibly seeks to help workers. In reality, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office projects that this policy would eliminate 1.3 to 3.7 million jobs. A wealth of economic research similarly shows that minimum wage hikes cause unemployment.
Demorats and Leftists believe it’s the DUTY of all business to lose money when they so decree, for any reason whatsoever. Here’s where business says “fuck off,” as well they should.
Poland’s government has proposed a new law to stop social media platforms deleting content or banning users who do not break Polish laws.
The proposed bill would see social networks fined up to 50 million zloty (£9.8m, $13.4m) for failing to restore deleted posts or accounts.
Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro announced the “freedom of speech protection” bill on Friday.
The law would also establish a “freedom of speech council”.
In America we’re establishing Ministry of Truth “Reality Czars” so that we can restrict your speech as much as humanly possible.
The council would be able to order social networks such as Facebook or Twitter to restore deleted content, or unblock a user’s account following a review, Mr Ziobro said.
Social media users in Poland who had been blocked or had content deleted would be able to complain directly to the platform, which would have to respond within 24 hours.
If a social media company refused to comply with an order, the council would be able to issue a fine of between 50,000 and 50 million zloty.

Report: West Wing Offices in Joe Biden’s White House Are Occupied Mostly by White People
by Ashley Oliver, 1-27-21
An analysis of West Wing offices thus far handed out to senior advisers demonstrates that President Joe Biden’s innermost circle of aides with prized real estate in the building is mostly white.
Out of 22 offices on the first and second floors, only four offices, including one occupied by Vice President Kamala Harris, are held by nonwhite individuals. The rest — a supermajority of 18 such West Wing offices — are occupied by white people, according to Politico.
The report comes as Biden signed four executive orders on Tuesday focused on “racial equity,” remarking on the day of the signing that “deep racial inequities” exist in America and that “systemic racism” has “plagued our nation for far, far too long.”
Incidentally, of the 13 coveted first-floor offices that were identified, white people occupy 12 of them.
HAPPY STORY: I think I detect something of a trend.
Arizona, Texas, and Iowa Join States Prepping against 2A Assaults by Biden Administration
by Teresa Mull, 1-21-21
Gunpowder Magazine just reported that legislators in Missouri and Arkansas have filed bills to make their states strongholds against inevitable onslaughts the Biden administration is preparing to wage against the Second Amendment.
Missouri has the option to adopt the Second Amendment Preservation Act, and Arkansas lawmakers have been presented with the Second Amendment Liberties Safeguard Act.
Now, three more states have joined their fellow 2A guardians in taking preemptive measures against unconstitutional measures surely to be imposed by Biden and his anti-gun cronies.
Patrick Svitek of the Texas Tribune reports in a Tweet that Gov. Greg Abbott “wants to make TX a ‘2A sanctuary state’ this session ‘so that no gov’t official at any level can come & take your gun away from you despite those ppl who say, ‘Heck yes, we’re gonna take your gun.’ We’re gonna say, ‘Heck no, you cannot take ppl’s guns’ in TX,”
THE RESISTANCE GROWS: Missouri bill would prohibit enforcement of unconstitutional federal gun laws
by Frank Salvato, 2-4-21
Missouri joins the efforts by state legislatures to force the federal government into Constitutional compliance.
The Missouri legislature is advancing legislation that would prohibit state, county, and local law enforcement agencies and departments from enforcing unconstitutional federal gun laws in that state.
Missouri is joining an increasing number of states that are proposing legislation that would see their states employ nullification to rein in a grotesquely overreaching federal government.
The proposed legislation, introduced by State Rep. Jered Taylor (R), would prohibit local law enforcement officers from enforcing federal gun laws. The measure would also include a ban on using federal laws to confiscate people’s firearms.
Taylor’s proposed legislation, which is currently moving its way through the Missouri House, would affect to the enforcement of federal gun crimes that are not also codified as state gun crimes.
The bill would not interfere with federal law enforcement officers from being able to enforce federal laws. But Missouri law enforcement – from state to local levels – would be restricted from facilitating the enforcement of those federal laws.
Then we have to get back into realities inherent in 2021. Starting with this sad but necessary story from LawOfficer.com.
Officer Sicknick was not beaten with a fire extinguisher.
Why does the media continue to lie?
2-2-21
A week after the tragic death of Capital Hill Police Officer Brian Sicknick, Law Officer pointed out the inconsistencies in the media reports—and the warnings from his own family that others should stop making his death “political.” Unfortunately, few listened to us.
Media outlets, politicians, spin artists, and many others keep telling the story that “terrorist Trump supporters” beat Officer Sicknick to death with a fire extinguisher.
Some even went further and wanted others to believe that President Trump himself was part of the beating. After our initial reports on Sicknick’s tragic death, we were flooded with hatred against law enforcement and against President Trump. Which evidences that despite the family’s request, many could not resist making this tragedy a matter of politics.
So-called “Republican” Joe Walsh continues the lie.
And on top of it all, and again, despite the family’s request, one group in particular exploited Officer Sicknick’s death as a rally cry against the murder of law enforcement—and of course the proverbial “white supremacist violence” that caused it.
The Democratic Party.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that “the perpetrators of Officer Sicknick’s death must be brought to justice” and that “the sacrifice of Officer Sicknick reminds us of our obligation to those we serve: to protect our country from all threats foreign and domestic.”
Drawing a conclusion that even those tasked with investigating the matter cannot yet draw.
And while we do not have the autopsy results yet, sources have advised that there are no indications that Officer Sicknick sustained blunt force trauma. This coincides with what his family said just days after his death, indicating that they believed he may have died from a medical condition. If our suspicion proves correct, then Officer Sicknick’s death was undeniably used as a prop for the sake of politics, and even worse, for the sake of political gain.
Making this matter even more political, federal investigators announced that they are “struggling” to build a murder case against anyone in his death.
Investigators struggle to build murder case in death of US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick
by Evan Perez, 2-2-21
Investigators are struggling to build a federal murder case regarding fallen US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, vexed by a lack of evidence that could prove someone caused his death as he defended the Capitol during last month’s insurrection.
Authorities have reviewed video and photographs that show Sicknick engaging with rioters amid the siege but have yet to identify a moment in which he suffered his fatal injuries, law enforcement officials familiar with the matter said.
Soon after Sicknick died on January 7, prosecutors in Washington opened a federal murder investigation, dedicating a team inside the US attorney’s office to build out a case, authorities have said.
And this in a federal building that is literally dripping, festooned with cameras. And the Demorats and American Media Maggots keep on with their lies — because it suits their political purposes.
And who is there to push back? No one. Certainly not the Republicans.
You know, the folks who held the Oval Office, House and Senate in 2016 and yet failed to pass the National Voter ID law — which may have saved us from the November 3rd corruptive debacle in the first place. And oh, who, by the way, abjectly failed to make eVerify mandatory in order to screen illegals?
Why? It serves both parties. Demorats get the votes and cheap H1B labor for Big Tech, and the Republicans get the rest of the cheap labor. Plus, they want to be loved.

This has the loving ability to potentially make instant felons out of at least 150 million Americans instantly.
Again I say: everything for the elites and nothing for you — police defunded and you left defenseless against the anarchist mobs who turned all of 2020 into a burning, looting, desecrating, illegal, murdering Shit Show.
All the things that it’s acceptable — even encouraged — for Leftists, Demorats and anarchists to do.
New Gun Bill Could Make it a Crime to Teach Kids How to Shoot
by Kipp Jones, 2-3-21
A Democratic state senator has introduced a bill in the New Mexico legislature that would essentially ban parents from teaching their own children how to handle and shoot firearms.
An anti-gun bill introduced Monday by Sen. Antoinette Sedillo López calls for strict gun storage rules and asks for stiff penalties for those who do not abide by them.
The proposed state legislation reads: “It is an offense for a firearm owner or authorized user to store or keep a firearm in any premises unless the firearm is secured in a locked container or secured by a gun lock or other means so as to render the firearm inaccessible or unusable to any person other than the owner or other authorized user.”
The bill suggested that anyone found in violation of the gun storage law would be guilty of a petty misdemeanor and be hit with a maximum fine of $500.
But the bill, further down in the text, specifically addresses those who allow others to handle firearms — which includes children in any situation.
This is New Mexico. This isn’t New York City.
“A minor may be an authorized user only if the minor is at least twelve years of age and has successfully completed a firearm safety training course,” according to the bill.
That would criminalize the act of parental supervision with a firearm for any person under 12 who has not paid for approved training.
Again, Demorats attempting to make felons out of law abiding citizens.
“Albuquerque is the property crime capital of America; if your home or vehicle was broken into and a convicted felon stole your firearm, you could be charged with a crime under the bill. Instead of taking on the issue of the crime wave that has engulfed Albuquerque and other parts of the state, Sedillo Lopez wants to blame you, someone just seeking to defend yourself, if your firearm is stolen,” the organization said.
“He absolutely should be charged with premeditated murder because of the lives that were lost for this invasion with his insurrection,” she told MSNBC. “For the president of the United States to sit and watch the invasion and the insurrection and not say a word because he knew he had absolutely initiated it – and as some of them said, ‘he invited us to come. We’re here at the invitation of the President of the United States.'”
The sham “trial” will begin next Tuesday the 9th and remove all focus from whatever other pieces of bullshit the Demorats intend to shove through Congress. “Shiny!” they say, then divert.
And no, former President Trump is not going to appear.
This is the same House who voted to remove Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene on Thursday, February 4th, who herself displayed self-flagellation and religious recants of her past sins of having an opinion.
The vote in the House was 230 to 199. This means, of course, the Republicans will be able to do the same thing when they’re in charge. No it doesn’t. They wouldn’t have the balls.
Once more, here’s all you need to know about the GOP:
The House Republican conference met Wednesday afternoon, and voted to keep Liz Cheney on as GOP conference chair, in the #3 leadership position, 145 to 61.
This is the GOP pretending that Trump didn’t expose them all as backstabbers of Conservatives.
Also slipping by and completely unmentioned by the American Media Maggots for quite obvious reasons was an article from the Washington Examiner because, after all — suck in some air and repeat after me — you must all yell “WHAT VOTER FRAUD?”
Maricopa County board refuses to turn over election equipment for Arizona Senate audit
by Kaelan Deese, 2-3-21
Maricopa County refuses to turn over elections equipment and ballots from the November general election to the Arizona Senate, escalating a fight between the dueling government bodies over election integrity oversight.
The Board of Supervisors, which announced its audit of the county’s election machines on Jan. 27, missed a Tuesday noon deadline to comply with a Senate subpoena following a meeting with the board’s attorneys, a local Fox affiliate reported.
Three days after Maricopa announced its audit, the Senate initiated its own parallel audit of elections equipment and materials, claiming the board’s audit does not meet the Senate’s request for a “deep forensic audit.” The Senate audit began on Tuesday with the issuance of the subpoena.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Warren Petersen said there could be “serious legal consequences” if the board does not comply. Petersen then followed through on the threat, announcing on Twitter that the Senate would draft a contempt resolution against the board.

Because, as it turns out, AOC lied about being in the capitol building. She wasn’t in the capitol. She was in the Cannon Building which, according to DC insiders, is a ten minute walk away. Away. You know. Away from the riots.
‘He was looking at me with tremendous anger and hostility’: AOC claims she feared the cop who was trying to help her during ‘exaggerated’ near death riot experience when she was NOWHERE near the trouble
AOC claimed in an Instagram video on February 1 she thought she was going to die on January 6
She described hiding in the bathroom of her office at the Cannon Office building while the mob stormed the Capitol Building 0.3 miles away
The Cannon Building was not breached but it was evacuated as cops tried to secure the Capitol
AOC tearfully recalled how a Capitol cop came to evacuate her and how she was suspicious of him
She said he never announced that he was police, didn’t have a partner and looked at her ‘aggressively’
She said like ‘so many communities’ she did not immediately feel safe around the police officer
The officer told her to go to the Longworth Office Building – where Rep. Katie Porter’s office is
AOC hid in Porter’s office, telling her how she wanted to live to become a mother, and looking for a closet to hide in
Now, she is being slammed for saying she feared for her life when she wasn’t in the Capitol Building
AOC Wasn’t Even in the Capitol Building During Her ‘Near Death’ Experience
by Nick Arama, 2-3-21
The story, as it was initially related by AOC, suggested that she was about to be assassinated by rioters in her office in a video that has been viewed over 6 million times.
AOC wasn’t even in the Capitol building where all the action was going down. If she was in her office, she was in the Cannon Building which is nearby, but a different building. But of course, many didn’t get the logistics and just assumed that she was in the Capitol building.
According to Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), who has an office in the same hall as AOC, two doors away, there were never any rioters in their hall so there was never any physical danger from rioters coming in at any point.
She swears she was almost murdered. Have we heard this somewhere before?
We also discovered today that — wholly as I predicted for some time — Leftists are eating Demorats and Demorats are eating Leftists. You can’t make this stuff up.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot Says Teachers Union Has Provided Counterproposal After She Called For CPS Reopening Deal By End Of The Day
by CBS2, 2-4-21
CHICAGO (CBS) — Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Chicago Public Schools Chief Executive Officer Janice Jackson announced late Thursday that the union had provided them a counterproposal for a deal to end the impasse about in-person schooling and the strike threat.
“Late this afternoon, we received a counter proposal from CTU leadership and we are working on a response,” Lightfoot and Jackson said in a statement.
This came after the mayor said earlier in the day that her patience with Chicago Teachers Union leadership has run out, and she wanted to get a deal done to reopen Chicago Public Schools by the end of the day — blaming the union for the lack of an agreement so far.
“We need to get this deal done and get it done today, without further delay,” she said. “Yesterday, there were a series of steps backward that were simply not productive, and we have conveyed that problem to the CTU leadership in the strongest terms possible.”
Los Angeles, Boston, Cleveland, Philadelphia, DC, and Chicago are SUING THEIR SCHOOL DISTRICTS to OPEN UP: Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, SF Mayor London Breed, are asking: “Where is the Biden-Demorat support?” And Mayor Lightfoot accused teachers unions of “creating chaos.”
You do know why this is happening, right? Leftist Lightfoot finally realizes there are more pissed-off Chicago residents with kids — than there are union teachers.
NY Times faces backlash for report urging Biden admin to appoint ‘reality czar’ to combat ‘disinformation’
by Joseph Wulfsohn, 2-2-21
The Times also promoted a suggestion that a ‘truth commission’ be established
The New York Times is turning to the Biden administration to “help solve our reality crisis” and calling on the new president to appoint a “reality czar” to combat “disinformation.”
Times technology columnist Kevin Roose sounded the alarm Tuesday about the popularity of right-wing QAnon conspiracy theorists, the unsubstantiated election fraud claims President Trump pushed ahead of the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riot, and what he called “the baseless theory that Covid-19 was manufactured in a Chinese lab.”
“The muddled, chaotic information ecosystem that produces these misguided beliefs doesn’t just jeopardize some lofty ideal of national unity. It actively exacerbates our biggest national problems, and creates more work for those trying to solve them,” Roose wrote. “And it raises an important question for the Biden administration: How do you unite a country in which millions of people have chosen to create their own version of reality?”
This is, by the way the same NYT that insisted the New York Post article about Hunter Biden’s laptop was “Russian disinformation” and pushed Trump/Russia “collusion” for FIVE YEARS. Both of which were proven LIES by the Old Gray Lady.
“I’ve spent the past several years reporting on our national reality crisis, and I worry that unless the Biden administration treats conspiracy theories and disinformation as the urgent threats they are, our parallel universes will only drift further apart, and the potential for violent unrest and civic dysfunction will only grow,” Roose explained.
Well, he’s right about that. But he’s gotten the entire paradigm of who’s responsible brain-glazingly incorrect.
This truly is right out of 1984’s “Ministry Of Truth.” This literally is Peak Orwell. Seriously. When I’ve said “you can’t write this shit,” I was wrong. It’s already been written. It’s called “1984” and “Animal Farm.”

They have done essentially nothing for me or actual Conservatives, for years. Decades.
I keep hearing rumors of how they’ll change, the Big Things they want to do. But just like I judged Trump, I judge the GOP.
“Deeds, not words.”
I know what actually happened. Hundreds of Old Staid Establishment GOP (OSEGOP) members got butthurt because an upstart, a loud, brash OUTSIDER dared to kick every other GOP candidate to the curb in 2016 and, worse, he actually got elected over Hillary Clinton.
And yes, there were Republicans who wished that Hillary had been elected over him.
They had their dainty, little, easily-bruised, delicate, fussy snowflake sensibilities offended by OMB, who told the truth about politics and Washington — which means he told the truth about them. Trump had the temerity to allow people to see just a smidgen of how the sausage is made.
Heretic! Apostate! Fanatic! Disbeliever! Zealot!
I have multiple questions, to which I never really received answers but — decade after decade — I was told that I must hold my nose and vote “for the lesser of two evils.”
So now I’m in my seventh decade myself, and, like a tree, I have to count the rings to see how old I am. Meaning that, now, I really don’t care if I don’t vote Republican again.
Because the Republican Party has shit in my personal punchbowl for the very last time.
And I’m supposed to say “thank you sir, may I have another.”
Nope. No more. Never again.
There are many ways to know that, all along, the GOP hasn’t really cared about Conservatives. One of those ways is to compare fighting spirit.
How is it that the Demorats can circle the wagons over most any issue and be uniquely resolute and unified? The GOP can’t. They haven’t been able to do so for years. Decades.
We all know that the Republicans have been all over “bipartisanship and compromise” for, again, decades, when the Demorats most certainly have not. It is only the Republicans who must achieve compromise and be bipartisan. It’s like that funny word “unity,” bandied about by the Biden Administration.
It’s all about “unity,” as long as you unify with their position. Then and only then is that termed “unity.”
Let’s ask, for example, what happened when the Bush Administration happened to own the Triumvirate of power in DC:
The White House
The House of Representatives
The Senate
What did happen? Essentially nothing. The Republicans were afraid to wield the power they had, and additionally couldn’t figure out how to unify themselves in order to wield said power. So: it was wasted and pissed away.
Let’s admit it. The Republicans have no spine and are afraid to truly utilize what power may actually drop in front of their faces, however briefly. They are all aquiver with fright. The Republicans truly want to be loved and admired at all times. They also want to ensure their donations don’t dry up.
As Conservatives, we inherently know this to be true, no matter how much we try to deny it.
Because we’ve done a pretty admirable job of being the wife in a domestic abuse situation. “Oh, I know he’ll change. He said he will. He never has. But I know he truly, deep down, loves me. He didn’t really mean to decapitate me. He says so. I’ll just stick it out a little bit longer.”
And then, wham, Conservatives are back in the political hospital with fractures, lacerations — and a massive political hospital bill.
Let’s examine some recent “deeds and words,” when it comes to the Republican Party and perhaps you’ll see what I mean, and why I draw my conclusion.
Ten out of 211 Republicans in the House is hardly an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote, and clearly, most Republicans’ sympathies still lie with Trump — and his ardent base of followers. But the 10 represent something significant — the most members of a president’s party to vote for his impeachment in U.S. history.
Who are the 10?
Here they are in order of the most pro-Trump districts:
Remember their names. You’ll see them again.
1. Rep. Liz Cheney, Wyoming’s at-large district: Trump won Wyoming 70% to 27%, and she’s the third-ranking leader in the House. So for her not just to vote in favor of impeachment but also issue a stinging rebuke is quite the step. Cheney was unequivocal in her statement, saying Trump “summoned this mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack.” She called what Trump did the “greatest betrayal” of a U.S. president ever.
2. Rep. Tom Rice, South Carolina’s 7th Congressional District: This is one no one saw coming. The congressman, who has served since 2013, comes from a pretty pro-Trump district (Trump won it 59% to 40%), and there was no indication he would do so beforehand. Even during his vote, Twitter was alight with speculation that Rice had cast the wrong vote. Turns out, he cast it exactly as he wanted to. Later Wednesday, Rice explained: “I have backed this President through thick and thin for four years. I campaigned for him and voted for him twice. But, this utter failure is inexcusable.”
3. Rep. Dan Newhouse, Washington’s 4th: Trump won this central Washington state district by a handy margin, 58% to 40%. But for Newhouse, who has served since 2015 and has not been a prominent member, it was clear: “The mob was inflamed by the language and misinformation of the President of the United States. … A vote against impeachment is a vote to validate unacceptable violence” and “to condone President Trump’s inaction.”
4. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, Illinois’ 16th: Kinzinger’s decision was probably the least surprising on this list. Despite coming from a district Trump won 57% to 41%, the Air Force veteran has been outspoken recently against Trump’s behavior. He said Trump “incited this insurrection” and “if these actions — the Article II branch inciting a deadly insurrection against the Article I branch — are not worthy of impeachment, then what is an impeachable offense?”
5. Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, Ohio’s 16th: Gonzalez, a former NFL wide receiver, is in his second term in Congress. Trump won his district by 15 points, but Gonzalez was unequivocal: Trump, he said, “helped organize and incite a mob that attacked the United States Congress in an attempt to prevent us from completing our solemn duties as prescribed by the Constitution.” He added that during the attack, Trump “abandoned his post … thus further endangering all present.”
6. Rep. Fred Upton, Michigan’s 6th: Upton has been in office since 1987. He comes from a district that is more moderate. Trump won it just 51% to 47%. Upton has good relationships with Democrats, including President-elect Joe Biden, and even has #WearYourMask in his Twitter bio. Upton said he would have preferred a bipartisan censure that would not interfere with the business of the next administration, “but,” he said, “it is time to say enough is enough.” He also cited Trump’s efforts “to impede the peaceful transfer of power from one President to the next.”
7. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, Washington’s 3rd: Herrera Beutler was swept in with the Tea Party wave in 2010, but her district is a moderate one. Trump won it 51% to 47%. Herrera Beutler gained prominence several years ago for giving birth to a child three months early, born without kidneys and a rare syndrome. Her daughter, Abigail, became the first to survive the often-fatal condition. The now-mother of three and congresswoman from southwest Washington state declared on the House floor her vote in favor of impeachment: “I’m not choosing sides, I’m choosing truth.”
8. Rep. Peter Meijer, Michigan’s 3rd: Meijer is a freshman, who won his seat with 53% of the vote. He represents a district that was previously held by Justin Amash, the former Republican-turned-independent who voted in favor of Trump’s impeachment in 2019. Meijer, a Columbia University grad who served in Afghanistan, is a social conservative in favor of restrictions on abortion rights and against restrictions on gun rights and religious freedoms. But he said Trump showed no “courage” and “betrayed millions with claims of a ‘stolen election.’ ” He added, “The one man who could have restored order, prevented the deaths of five Americans including a Capitol police officer, and avoided the desecration of our Capitol, shrank from leadership when our country needed it most.”
9. Rep. John Katko, New York’s 24th: Katko is a moderate from an evenly divided moderate district. A former federal prosecutor, he said of Trump: “It cannot be ignored that President Trump encouraged this insurrection.” He also noted that as the riot was happening, Trump “refused to call it off, putting countless lives in danger.”
10. Rep. David Valadao, California’s 21st: The Southern California congressman represents a majority-Latino district Biden won 54% to 44%. Valadao won election to this seat in 2012 before losing it in 2018 and winning it back in the fall. He’s the rare case of a member of Congress who touts his willingness to work with the other party. Of his vote for impeachment, he said: “President Trump was, without question, a driving force in the catastrophic events that took place on January 6.” He added, “His inciting rhetoric was un-American, abhorrent, and absolutely an impeachable offense.”
Stop. Here’s another clue about the GOP. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina just wrote this in a Tweet:
I believe Liz Cheney is one of the strongest and most reliable conservative voices in the Republican Party. She is a fiscal and social conservative, and no one works harder to ensure that our military is well prepared.
Hold that thought about Liz Cheney.
So just what was the so-called “incitement”? These exact words in a speech by Donald Trump on January 6th of 2021.
By the way, was I able to find this video on YouTube? Of course not. This is from a UK article.
Conveniently, no one remembers this from Leftists.
This from former AG Loretta Lynch.
Loretta Lynch calling for violence & blood spilling in the streets.
25 people were killed during the protests/riots 2 were police officers, but you said nothing.
— Dr. President ????????? ℭ?????? (@carrerapulse) January 31, 2021
This is peaceful also.
And for those words you heard, before actual advocacy for violence against Trump, supporters and Republicans, Donald Trump must be impeached. As a citizen. Out of office.
In the legal world, there are concepts called the “letter of the law” and the “spirit of the law.” The letter of the law involving impeachment can be found in Article II, Section 4 of the US Constitution, which says, in one sentence:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
The spirit of the law is also quite clear. It is for the removal of persons who are found guilty, following a hearing, and involving due process, of “high crimes and misdemeanors,” who are current office holders. Because the point is to remove them.
Perhaps it has escaped the Demorats and Republicans that Donald Trump, OMB, the guy with the dead orange cat on his head, is no longer in the White House or DC.
Those are just a few aspects. I’m sure you would have your own lengthy laundry list of reasons why you believe the GOP failed us abjectly, nakedly, clearly, with little if any apology, dusting off, or even a remark in passing.
So let’s begin with the truth — a truth you already know. The Demorats and Republicans are cut from essentially the same cloth. As I’ve been fond of saying for some time, “there’s not a dime’s worth of difference between them.” Republicans are basically Demorats with no cohesion or focused center. Or balls, for that matter. They are primarily invertebrates.
And they fear. The fear as much as the Demorats. The Republicans and Demorats fear that you — the roughly 80 million of you — will continue this Populist, Middle Class, America First, Rule of Law, Due Process, Constitution and Bill of Rights movement.
They fear. They are afraid of you. You, me, us, we have the power — if we can likewise coalesce and beat the DC politicians at their own game. Hell, look at GameStop.
And both sides must shut you down, weaken you, marginalize you, depersonalize you, as much as humanly possible with a constant barrage of propaganda 24/7/365.
Why? Five things. Fear for loss of:
Power
Control
Money
Prestige
Access
It’s that simple. You, the American Taxpayer, are now the enemy of the government. They have as much as decreed it so.
Politico reporter: Trump base is ‘getting stronger’ since he left office, impeachment would only empower him
by Joseph Wulfsohn, 1-31-21
‘I think that there’s a huge disconnect between Washington and the rest of the country’
Former President Donald Trump has actually gained — not lost — political clout since leaving office, a political observer asserted Friday.
Politico reporter Tara Palmeri’s observation runs contrary to the assumptions of many in the Washington D.C. establishment and the mainstream media.
“People don’t want to hear anything against Trump,” Palmeri said during an appearance on MSNBC. “Actually, the more he stays out of the media, the more that he becomes this martyr, this looming figure over the GOP.”
I think that’s true. I think that’s absolutely correct. I think we — Conservatives — have a lot more power than we even credit to ourselves. Politicians know it.
She drew the conclusion after speaking with locals in the Cowboy State about Cheney’s vote to impeach Trump while covering an anti-Cheney rally led by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla.
“I actually went out of my way to try to find someone who would defend her and I really could not,” Palmeri told MSNBC. “She didn’t have that much name recognition, considering she’s a Cheney. … I mean, I said her name at a hardware store, and someone shouted a threat.”
Then this.
The “overwhelming” consensus that Palmeri heard from voters was that Cheney’s vote for impeachment was “not a vote for Wyoming” and “therefore she has to go.”
Liz Cheney Censured by Republican Parties in 10 Wyoming Counties
by Joshua Caplan, 2-2-21
House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-WY) has now been censured by Republican Parties in ten Wyoming counties and that number could continue to climb, according to the Casper Star-Tribune.
heney has faced fierce backlash in Wyoming and Washington, D.C., since the lawmaker and nine others voted in favor of impeaching President Donald Trump over the deadly January 6 Capitol Hill riots.
Of the ten censure resolutions, the Sweetwater County Republican Party said Cheney had “betrayed the trust and failed to honor the will of the very large majority of motivated Wyoming voters who elected her.”
The resolution continued:
Because she voted in an anarchic proceeding against President Donald J. Trump which was conducted in contravention of established principles of due process — a proceeding that provided no probative evidence for consideration, called no witnesses to testify under oath, permitted no questioning of the accusers by the accused — Representative Liz Cheney stood in defiance of the quantifiable will of the substantial majority of Wyoming citizens and devalued the political influence of the State of Wyoming.
Over half of the House Republican Conference has committed to vote to remove Cheney from her leadership role. One senior House Republican told Breitbart News that GOP lawmakers believe Cheney should step aside voluntarily. Reps. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) and Elise Stefanik (R-NY) have been suggested as possible replacements.
But here is another major clue.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has signaled that he will not support efforts to remove Cheney from her post, while Cheney herself has stated that she has no plans to step down.
On Monday, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) praised Cheney, calling her “important leader” with the courage to act on “deep convictions.”
McConnell and McCarthy, two members in good standing of the OSEGOP — the Old Staid Establishment GOP. That was no more clear than on January 19th.
Pence, McConnell, and McCarthy are skipping Trump’s departure ceremony
by Grace Panetta, 1-19-21
Vice President Mike Pence and the top two Republicans in Congress, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, plan to skip President Donald Trump’s departure ceremony on Wednesday morning.
Axios reported on Tuesday that McConnell and McCarthy would attend Mass with Biden scheduled to start at 8:45 a.m. at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington, DC, down the street from the White House.
It was more important for McConnell and McCarthy to attend Mass with a great advocate of abortion than to do anything with Trump.
Ted Cruz Recycles Election Fraud Claims Already Rejected by the Courts
by Ilya Somin, 1-3-21, Reason.com:
He and other GOP senators supporting his bid to reject certification of the 2020 election result ignore the fact that courts have already addressed the issues they raise.
Senator Ted Cruz and a group of ten other GOP senators have issued a statement calling on Congress to refuse to certify the 2020 election results unless Congress first creates a commission to investigate President Trump’s unsubstantiated allegations of “voter fraud, violations and lax enforcement of election law, and other voting irregularities.” The statement claims that the commission is needed because courts have supposedly failed to address these claims: “Ideally, the courts would have heard evidence and resolved these claims of serious election fraud. Twice, the Supreme Court had the opportunity to do so; twice, the Court declined.”
Ted Cruz: President Trump was “Both Reckless and Irresponsible” and Did Not Prove Election Fraud in Any Court
by Jim Hoft, 1-31-21
Senator Cruz is an example of a Republican who will never win a national election and especially moving forward after the 2020 election. Democrats BRAZENLY used EVERY TRICK in their bag to steal victory in November 2020. And they did it without a hint of shame.
In this week’s video, Senator Ted Cruz accused President Donald Trump of spouting “overheated rhetoric” about the election and failing to present evidence of voter fraud.
Pick up the video at 16:50.
Senator Ted Cruz: “President Trump’s rhetoric, I think, went way too far over the line. I think it was both reckless and irresponsible because he said repeatedly—and he said over and over again—he won by a landslide; there was massive fraud; it was all stolen everywhere. That evidence, the campaign did not prove that in any court, and to make a determination about an election it has to be based on the evidence, and so simply saying the result you want, that’s not responsible and you’ve never heard me use language like that. What I’ve said is voter fraud is real, and we need to examine the evidence, and look at the actual facts; and in particular, what is the evidence of how much voter fraud occurred, and did it occur in sufficient quantities and in sufficient states to alter the outcome of the election. That would have been the mandate of the election commission; to assess.”
Just a wee bit of change, don’t you think?
Remember the name of Tim Rice, the guy who voted to impeach Trump. He fell into the Cheney Pit. Not exactly sure why. The Republicans being like broken clocks, you see.
SCGOP passes resolution to censure Rep. Rice over impeachment vote
WWBF News, 1-30-21
COLUMBIA, S.C. (WMBF) – The South Carolina GOP has formally censured U.S. Rep. Tom Rice over his impeachment vote.
About two weeks ago, Rice was one of 10 Republicans to vote in favor of impeaching President Donald Trump who is accused of inciting a deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol.
After that vote, a letter and potential resolution to censure the congressman at the grassroots level started forming in South Carolina 7th Congressional District. That resolution made it all the way to the State Executive Committee for a vote.
At a quarterly meeting on Saturday, the SCGOP State Executive Committee passed the resolution to formally censure Rice. A censure is a formal statement of disapproval.
While the censure is a symbolic measure, it is rare for the party to invoke one on a sitting Congressman.
Wait. That was local. Maybe all politics is local. Or just some kind of error.
And who can possibly forget the “doubling down on stupid” as is done, say, with Demorats and Coronavirus? When in doubt, do the exact same thing that got your asses kicked to the curb in 2016.
GOP Rep Kinzinger starts PAC to resist party’s Trump embrace
by Hope Yen, AP, 1-31-21
Rep. Adam Kinzinger was one of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Donald Trump
WASHINGTON — Rep. Adam Kinzinger, one of 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Donald Trump, is launching a political action committee to push back against a House GOP leadership team and party that he says have become too closely aligned to the former president.
Right. Like all the other Republicans bouncing away from anything even remotely Trump-like, conjuring up visions of rats fleeing the ship. But that’s not good enough. Oh no. Now we need a Super PAC, or Political Action Committee.
The “Country 1st” PAC, unveiled in a six-minute video released Sunday, will challenge the current direction of a GOP that Kinzinger says has wrongly become a “Trump-first party” to the detriment of the nation, as seen by the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.
That’s right. You have to be crushed.
The goal of the PAC is to say, “Let’s take a look at the last four years, how far we have come in a bad way,” Kinzinger said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “How backward-looking we are, how much we peddle darkness and division. And that’s not the party I ever signed up for. And I think most Republicans didn’t sign up for that.”
“It doesn’t mean we don’t need to fight back, you know, to defend what we believe, conservative principles,” he added. “But when I ask people now what is a conservative principle, how many people think that conservative principles are things like just ‘build the wall’ and, you know, charge the Capitol and have an insurrection?”
You see the lies? 200 morons broken into the Capitol. Not 80 million Trump supporters. Each of those who entered illegally should be arrested and likely will. You see the attempt to easily slide to one who the dividers really are?
Kinzinger also criticized the leadership of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., who initially said after the riot that Trump bears responsibility for the violence. But after meeting privately with the former president last week in Florida, McCarthy tweeted in support, “United and ready to win in ’22.”
So even McCarthy isn’t enough of a fellator for Kinzinger’s tastes.
Kinzinger also cites the GOP’s efforts to remove Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney from the leadership team because she voted to impeach Trump.
McConnell denounces Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene as a ‘cancer’ on GOP
by AP, 2-1-21
Senator decries ‘loony lies’ of conspiracy theorist as Democrats move to strip her of committee assignments
WASHINGTON — Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell denounced newly elected Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Monday, calling the far-right Georgia Republican’s embrace of conspiracy theories and “loony lies” a “cancer for the Republican Party.”
That’s odd. I don’t recall you voting for her. Her own peeps did.
RNC chairwoman expresses regret over Giuliani news conference
by John Bowden, The Hill, 2-1-21
The chairwoman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), Ronna Romney McDaniel, said in a new interview that she regrets letting former President Trump‘s lawyers, namely Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, spread unproven claims about the 2020 election from the organization’s headquarters.
Speaking with The New York Times, McDaniel indicated she thought it had been a mistake to allow Giuliani and Powell to make the claims about election rigging days after the vote at the RNC’s headquarters in Washington, D.C.
“When I saw some of the things Sidney was saying, without proof, I certainly was concerned it was happening in my building,” McDaniel told the newspaper. “There are a whole host of issues we had to deal with — what is the liability of the RNC, if these allegations are made and unfounded?”
Okay. Good to know. You’ve made your bed. Message received. I got it. Did you?
Lindsay Graham Offers Support for Liz Cheney and Then Warns the Trump Team About Attempting to Present Evidence of Election Fraud In Front of the Senate
by Joe Hoft, 2-2-21
Lindsey Graham is back to being himself. After sucking up to President Trump to help him win an election, he attempts to intimidate the president while supporting bitter war monger Liz Cheney who voted to impeach the most popular president in US history.
Lindsey Graham is the friend nobody wants. He’ll smile at your face while stabbing you in the back.
Earlier today Senator Graham let Liz Cheney know he supported her. Cheney recently voted to impeach President Trump. Most Americans, the majority that voted for President Trump, vehemently disagreed with Cheney’s actions.
Graham and his good friend in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, are on the same side of Cheney, which is not on the side of the American people and President Trump. This is why millions of Americans and Republicans are done with the Republican party. These politicians believe Americans voted for them in spite of President Trump and not because of President Trump.
Read that again.
These politicians believe Americans voted for them in spite of President Trump and not because of President Trump.
Graham wasn’t done. He then threatened the President by reportedly stating the President should not talk about the (obvious) election fraud in the 2020 election. Americans know the election is a joke, but the bitter politicians in DC don’t.
Now I speak Republican, as well as Leftist. Does that mean Graham and McConnell will push the caucus to Trump’s second impeachment? The threat is there and it made a thud when it dropped.
If this is true, Graham has some soul searching to do and the Republican Party may as well start digging their grave. Someone needs to tell Graham about how many votes President Trump really won in the election and how many believe this election was stolen. Not one person you talk to who voted for Trump believe he lost to Joe Biden. The only people that believe this are Graham, Cheney, McConnell, the Democrats and their Big Media and Big Tech tools.
I could go on, but I’m running out of time and Rock Star. So I’ll say this.
There are a handful of Republicans I may — may — vote for in the future. An ounce of betrayal and even they are gone. Their numbers are dwindling by the day.
I’m going to bottom line the situation like this.
What’s the best way to hide a lie? Invent a bigger one. Like the Demorats are doing daily. Hourly.
“The most powerful weapon in the hands of the oppressor is not the gun, it’s the ability to control the minds of the oppressed. Once one understands that, the present becomes much more clear.” — Steve Biko
At more than any other time, we need, no, we demand that there be absolute pushback to what the Leftists, Demorats and American Media Maggots are thrusting unlawfully upon us.
The Republicans — like the Demorats — have clearly concluded that We The People must continue to dance to the tune of government, and not the other way around.
Perhaps it’s time to withdraw what is commonly termed the “consent of the governed.” Not by threats or firearms or thousands of the National Guard. By consent.
Consent, by definition, denotes that it can removed.
People are saying that ________ is unconstitutional, or unlawful. “You can’t impeach Donald Trump because that’s not Constitutional.”
Constitutionality or the rule of law has nothing to do with Demorats any more. It’s simply about power and control. And money.
The Criminal Creed is now the Demorat Creed. It goes like this:
“What’s mine is mine, and what’s yours is mine, unless you have the power to stop me from taking it.”
Those are the Demorats.
It’s clear after decades and decades of “Waiting For The Electrician, Or Someone Like Him” — or “Waiting For Godot,” who never arrives — I’m done with waiting for the Republicans to solve the problems they themselves help create.
