Corporate America continues to threaten to pull campaign contributions from the 147 Republicans who voted to not certify the results of the 2020 presidential election, yet this has made no dent in Republicans’ fundraising strength as Democrats govern left at alarming speed.According to financial disclosures made public by the Federal Election Commission, the Republican National Committee raised $16.3 million in January compared to the Democratic National Committee’s $13.5 million. That’s about $3 million more.The Democratic Senatorial Committee raised $6 million while the National Republican Senatorial Committee raised $8.3 million in January, as previously reported by The Federalist. The National Republican Congressional Committee outpaced the Democratic

control of nuclear codes as mental
status concerns brew 12 replies
Dozens of House Democrats have sent a letter to President Joe Biden urging him to relinquish sole control over the country’s nuclear weapons codes, citing “real risks” that could lead to an accidental or rogue launch.“…Vesting one person with this authority entails real risks,” said the letter, which was led by California Rep. Jimmy Panetta. “Past presidents have threatened to attack other countries with nuclear weapons or exhibited behavior that caused other officials to express concern about the president’s judgment.”“While any president would presumably consult with advisors before ordering a nuclear attack, there is no requirement to do so,” the letter further states.
President Joe Biden on Wednesday formally revoked a series of presidential orders and memorandum signed by Donald Trump, including one that sought to cut funding from several cities he deemed 'anarchist' havens and another mandating that federal buildings should be designed in a classical aesthetic.
Since taking office last month, Biden has revoked dozens of Trump orders and issued dozens more of his own as he's sought to target foundational aspects of Trump's legacy and promote aspect of his own agenda without going through Congress.The latest slate of revocations targeted a grab-bag of issues,
Tiger Woods has no memory of the accident that left him with a shattered his right leg — and appeared to be unaware of how badly injured he was when the first deputy arrived at the scene, according to reports.“At the hospital he was asked about it by the investigators and he had no recollection of the crash itself,” LA County Sheriff Alex Villanueva told CNN, according to the Times of London.Sheriff’s Deputy Carlos Gonzalez, who arrived first at the scene, told NBC’s “Today” on Wednesday that the golfing legend was calm, but appeared to be unaware of how badly he was hurt.
Short answer–I doubt it. But it is a legitimate question to raise because there are still some patriots serving within the ranks of the FBI who are beyond distraught over the gross politicization of their once proud, respected organization. Some of the men and women with 20 years in are simply counting days and hours until they can punch out. There is genuine, deep seated hatred for Christopher Wray and his coterie of lackeys eager to suckle on the teat of the Deep State.The final straw for many in the bureau is the dishonest response to the January 6 swarm at the U.S. Capitol.
The #1 goal of the liberal media ever since Trump came down the escalator in June of 2015 was to smear his supporters as “racists, bigots, sexist, deplorable scum of the earth”.In early 2021, they added “domestic terrorist” to the list.Sadly, according to a brand new poll, the media smear campaign has proved to be effective.A new poll from Echelon Insights shows that the #1 “concern” for Democrat voters is “Trump supporters”. Yes, really. Not police brutality, gun violence, healthcare, student debt, or 7 of the other items they were asked about.Trump supporters.
It is evening, very late evening. I am walking in the remains of what once was New York City. Broken trash bags and discarded clothing, furniture and debris line the sidewalks, spilling out onto the streets, the bags’ black plastic jerking and lurching as though some near-suffocated life within were struggling to break free of confinement. But I know it is only rats, still moving quickly and fearfully out of habitual wariness of the humans no longer around to challenge them. I traverse blocks of shuttered and abandoned storefronts, their housing-code-violating neon displays gone dark, the “For Rent” signs in the windows already faded and frayed.

Just weeks after voting in support of the second impeachment of former President Donald Trump, U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., is already facing a pro-Trump GOP primary challenger.His opponent? Catalina Lauf, a 27-year-old who previously served in the Trump administration in the U.S. Department of Commerce. She launched her bid Tuesday to oust the 42-year-old incumbent in Illinois' 16th Congressional District. "I never thought I'd primary a fellow Republican, but is Congressman Kinzinger really a Republican anymore? He isn't and we have the proof," Lauf says in a video campaign announcement.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Rep. Liz Cheney, the third-ranking House GOP member, had an uncomfortable exchange with reporters Wednesday over whether former President Trump should speak at CPAC as planned this weekend."Yes, he should," McCarthy said in a brief response after being asked by a reporter.Cheney, however, had a different answer when asked the same question."That’s up to CPAC," she began, before elaborating. "I’ve been clear about my views of President Trump and the extent to which, following Jan. 6., I don't believe that he should be playing a role in the future of the party or the country."
Country star Trisha Yearwood has contracted the novel coronavirus COVID-19, her husband Garth Brooks announced via Facebook Wednesday.Brooks, 59, and Yearwood, 56, are “currently quarantining at home on the heels of a recent positive Covid test by a member of their team,” per “Team Garth”‘s post from Wednesday evening.“Subsequent tests they’ve had in recent days have indicated Trisha has contracted Covid, while Garth remains negative.”“Officially,” Brooks adds, Yearwood is “diagnosed as ‘on her way out of the tunnel’ now, though, which I’m extremely thankful for.”
Xavier Becerra, President Biden’s nominee for Health and Human Services secretary, testified to Congress during his confirmation hearing on Wednesday that he has “never sued any nuns,” despite California’s lawsuit against the Little Sisters of the Poor.“I have never sued any nuns,” Becerra, who serves as California’s attorney general, told the Senate Finance Committee.“I have taken on the federal government, but I’ve never sued any affiliation of nuns, and my actions have always been directed at the federal agencies because they have been trying to do things contrary to the law in California,” Becerra continued.
It was open season on conservatives at The View Wednesday, as the hosts began the show attacking Republican Senators and Fox News host Tucker Carlson before moving on to attack Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R). After expressing outrage at Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) suggesting "provocateurs" and "fake Trump protesters” were responsible for the January 6 riot, they moved on to target Carlson for saying tthere was no evidence that white supremacists were responsible for the riot. Sunny Hostin admitted she was “disgusted” at Carlson for “daring” to say this, citing people carrying Confederate flags into the Capitol

Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH) said that Democrat efforts to censor dissident media are “eerily similar” to communist China’s on Wednesday during the House Committee hearing on “Fanning the Flames: Disinformation and Extremism in the Media.”“Just two weeks ago, China’s national radio and television administration banned BBC World News from broadcasting in China, because it found BBC’s reports, I quote, ‘seriously violate’ broadcast guidelines, including, and I quote again, ‘the requirement that news should be truthful, and fair, and not harm China’s national interests,'” said Johnson during the hearing on Wednesday.“So I have to say, I am disappointed and seriously blown away by my House Democrat colleagues’ letter to the broadcasters,

Truck yeah!The US Postal Service on Tuesday unveiled a modern replacement for the iconic Grumman LLV mail truck that has been in use since the late 1980s.The new design consists of a waste-high front hood that resembles the front beak of a duck in front of an extra-high windshield.Oshkosh Defense has been contracted to build between 50,000 and 165,000 of the new trucks over the next 10 years — replacing vehicles that have been in service for as long as three decades, USPS said in a statement.Oshkosh’s design is not completely finalized,
On Monday during a speech at the White House, President Joe Biden suffered from another brain freeze when he completely jumbled his speech.The comments were made at a ceremony for the 500,000 Americans who have died from Coronavirus, 100,000 of which have happened in the very little time Biden has been in office.Biden couldn’t even read what he was supposed to say from the teleprompter: “The only way to spare more pain and more loss, the only way— these millstones no longer mark our national mourning— these milestones, I should say, no longer,
Hunter Biden had a controversial affair with his brother Beau's grieving widow Hallie, while exchanging raunchy texts, 'partying', and even renting a house with her sister, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal. Hallie Biden's older sister, Elizabeth Secundy, who was recently separated from her husband of 15 years, referred to Hunter as her 'prince' and told him she loved him, in a series of text messages dating back to 2016. The pair's relationship was revealed in files and emails recovered from Hunter's laptop - the contents of which became public last year after it was abandoned at a Delaware computer shop.
A public school system in New York has introduced a new curriculum to teach that 'all white people play a part in perpetuating systemic racism', and show kindergarten classes videos of black children shot and killed by police, instructing them about the dangers of police brutality.
Buffalo's schools are expected to follow lesson plans devised by Fatima Morrell, the associate superintendent for Culturally and Linguistically Responsive Initiatives.
Morrell's lesson plans, obtained by City Journal, teach pupils and their teachers how to be, in her words, more 'woke.'
Hillary Clinton is set to publish her first ever novel, and takes a veiled swipe at Donald Trump with the story about a 'dangerously out of control' US government in the midst of a terror attack.The former Secretary of State, 73, has co-written State of Terror with her friend, the Canadian author Louise Penny.The book, which will hit bookshelves in October, tells the story of a novice Secretary of State serving in the administration of her political rival as a 'series of terrorist attacks throws the global order into disarray.'

Democrats Move to Silence Non-Liberal Speech
32 replies
On paper, the Democrats have a tenuous hold on power in Washington. Their president is a cipher with severely diminished mental capacities, the Senate is a 50-50 tie, and they hold the narrowest House majority in decades. Nevertheless, the Democrats see what could be a once in a lifetime opportunity, and are pressing forward with their most radical agenda since they seceded in 1861.
Among other things, the Democrats are trying to repeal, in effect, the First Amendment, by barring conservative speech–or, rather, speech that is not consistently left-wing–from the public square.
We have seen this in the moves against conservatives and other independent voices by

Biden has made it clear that his number one mission as president is to undo everything the Trump administration accomplished over the last four years. His newest cancellation simply does not make sense. Biden’s administration recently cancelled Operation Talon, a Trump administration program aimed at removing convicted sex offenders living in the United States illegally. Though the program seems to be something everyone should support, it clearly isn’t. Why would anyone want sex offenders to remain in the country?

On Tuesday, current and former Capitol Police officials testified at a joint hearing of the Senate Homeland Security and Rules committees about the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. The law enforcement officers claimed that they had been prepared to face a potentially violent protest, but they said the rioters caught them off guard. “We properly planned for a mass demonstration with possible violence. What we got was a military-style coordinated assault on my officers and a violent takeover of the Capitol building,” former U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) Chief Steven Sund testified. He pushed back on claims that USCP was not prepared for the riot.

Last month, President Biden signed a series of executive orders undermining fossil fuels, on the grounds the “climate crisis” forced his hand. “We can’t wait any longer. We see with our own eyes. We know it in our bones. It is time to act.”
Within days, most of the country was seeing “with our own eyes” and feeling “in our bones” a cold wave so severe that five million people lost electricity and, in a special irony, nearly half of the ballyhooed wind turbines in Texas, which had risen to supply 23% of her energy, were left frozen (and inoperable).
