Friday on CNN’s “At This Hour,” former Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) urged the GOP to “shun” the “conspiratorial fringe element of the party” if it wants to win elections moving forward. Flake, who has long been vocal about his disdain for former President Donald Trump, emphasized that Republicans should break from Trump and his supporters like Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and instead turn to someone like former House Speaker Paul Ryan. “I do believe … that most Republicans out there want to get back to a party that believes in ideas, the kind that Paul Ryan described.

Well boyo, there’s a great difference between merely winning an election, as you types sometimes manage to somehow do, and effectively and properly governing. It does not include reaching across the aisle to deal with the enemy of America, the D party. Use power when you earn it and use it.

Flake IS a flake, and there IS NO going back. Going back is more Flakes and Ryans, Romneys and Murkowskis, Collins, etc. THEY are the ones to shun and shame. They may not be the architects of our failures, but they are the foundation.

Unfortunately, Flake has just enough gray matter to know that if he changed over to the Democrats (where he belongs), he'd never get another CNN gig.

If the Republican Party shunned the seventy something percent of Republican voters who supported Trump in the 2020 election and thereafter the remainder of the Republican Party would be dead meat politically.

We make fun of people like Flake, but he and his ilk are dangerous. The left holds them up as the standard of thought in the Republican Party which could not be further from the truth. Our radical fringe is not white supremacists, it is the wanna be democrats posing as republicans. They are out there popping off any chance they can get to disparage President Trump and callings his supporters radicals and even terrorists. What a boatload of garbage. We are the law and order, pro-military and law enforcement, secure border, Constitution loving, hard working tax payers who make the country work. Flake does not know us and he does not want to get to know us. We are beneath him. We are not in his highfalutin league. Therefore, he dismisses is as “less than”. Jeff Flake is a tool or a more descriptive phrase would be useful idiot of the left.

Flake and the rest of the RINOS should be shunned and purged from the Republican Party. One by one we should Primary them as their term is up and they think they are going to run again for the Cushy job they have! They are the Roaches of the Republican Party. They get stepped on and they keep running. We need to squash them so they are gone from the party for good! I think we're likely(after watching Biden and the Democrats ruin this country)o find more and more competent candidates who are true Republicans to run against these RINOS!

First Paul Ryan, and now Jeff Flake. What do they have in common? Neither are in government because they chose not to run for re-election because they knew they would lose because they were RINOs. Apparently both think they still have a career in government. They do not. They have been rejected by their own supporters. The 'R' after their name should stand for REJECT. Instead of an 'R' after their name, it should say 'Rej'. Ryan(Rej) and Flake(Rej). Perhaps there should be a Reject party. No politician wants to be a member of it, but they are put their by the voting public when soundly repudiated. It would carry the meaning if they ever try to run for government again, do not vote for them. They have been tried, and found a failure.

Political convictions are like religious convictions: Sometimes even life-changing events won't alter a person's mind. I think Flake is 'whistling past the graveyard' by eschewing the conservative movement taking place among the Deplorables.

#13. What do Flake and Ryan have in common? They showed that they are both weak when it came to standing up to the aggressive leftist and liberal Democrats during political “nut cutting” processes. They either covertly comply with the Democrat political agenda, and take the slice of the pie that the Democrats allow them to have, or know they will get stomped into the gutter.

Hey, Flakey, now that your state of Arizona has shown it can rig elections so that the losing candidate wins, maybe they can get you your old Senate job back. But, you'll probably have to run as a Democrat, like Arlen Specter. But, with your total absence of honor and morals, that switchover shouldn't be hard for you at all.

This ‘fringe element’ Flake refers to happens to be the vast majority of Republican voters. He and the rest of the RINO’s should start their own Party and see how far they get. They still think we’re all about Trump. We are all about draining the filthy swamp in Washington whether it’s Trump doing it or some other worthy successor. It is the Jeff Flakes of the world who will be shunned.

I suspect that Stelter and Cuomo have each of these losers on their speed dial. What is distressing is the alacrity with which they respond to the call. Faster than Pavlov's dogs salivated.

How much has the psychology of our nation been upended by this pandemic? We’ve seen people blindly turn over their lives to the dictates of the government. The government shut down businesses, jobs and destroyed lives. Children went without in-person school. Every other illness or condition seemed to be suborned to the interest of fighting the pandemic. When the CDC said that fully vaccinated people could now go without masks, one would think that those on the left who said “Follow the science” would have been happy. This meant they could drop the masks. But instead, people who previously accepted the government dictates then refused to accept that one.

Flanders Fields, Belgium, 1915: Poppies, the hue of human blood, blow in the gentle breeze. The scarlet blooms decorate thousands of Allied soldier graves. Graves of mud transfused with the blood of fallen brothers. 1,043 American soldiers perished in Belgium during World War I, 368 of whom are interred at Flanders Field American Cemetery. Today, Memorial Day, we remember their courage—and the courage of all American veterans—by revisiting the story of the vermilion poppies of Flanders Fields. Flanders Fields is the name for WWI battlefields on the border of northern Belgium and France.

A Houston-area hospital is being sued by 117 employees over its mandate that all staff must be vaccinated against COVID-19 by June 7 or they will be terminated. The hospital’s employees claim they are being used as “human guinea pigs.” The civil suit was filed on Friday. It contends that the mandate violates the Nuremberg Code and U.S. statutes that permit Americans to legally refuse “unapproved” medical treatments. The suit also claimes that it violates both Texas labor and employment laws. Lead plaintiff Jennifer Bridges told KHOU that the hospital “trying to force you to put something into your body that you’re not comfortable with to keep your job is just insane.”

Law enforcement, including local police and the FBI, investigated Blevins for a week to confirm his association with extremist ideologies. “This case reminds us that we need to always be vigilant.

The 78-year-old President of the United States, Joe Biden, is not well. He is suffering from an obvious mental decline. Americans are not sure of his exact condition because he has not released any mental competency test results. When he was asked about it during the presidential campaign, he responded in anger and accused the news reporter who posed the question of being a “junkie.” Clearly, Biden does not exhibit the same mental acuity that he did as a United States Senator. Comparing videos of Senator Biden versus President Biden shows he is a shadow of his former self.

There have been times when America has forgotten why we sent Americans overseas—and the duty we have to care for those who carry this nation’s freedom on their backs. After Vietnam, there were no “welcome home” parades. As a youth, I saw senior officers in America’s most decorated combat division refused permission to wear their uniforms outside of Fort Bragg in North Carolina because the Army thought they would be subject to indignity. The Vietnam War created a lasting slogan: “Never again will one generation of veterans abandon another.” That must be our charge today—and always.

An illegal alien has been found guilty of murdering 20-year-old University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts by a jury on Friday. Cristhian Bahena Rivera, an illegal alien from Mexico, was arrested in August 2018 — about a month after Tibbetts first went missing on the evening of July 18, 2018, in Brooklyn, Iowa — and charged with first-degree murder. Bahena Rivera led investigators to Tibbetts’ body and he said he spotted her jogging, ran up to her, and became angry because she threatened to call the police. Rivera said he then blacked out and took her body from his car trunk and placed her in a cornfield, placing corn stalks over her.
