This is why the race card is losing its power. When you can stand there as a convicted felon and insist that the reason you are expelled from a State Senate is because you’re black you really have no business even talking about race. You are officially clueless.

The dumocrats have demanded expulsion of pubbie members of the legislature for far less egregious transgressions. But this woman is special, of course, being a member of the privileged class. And or course she is innocent, and even if she weren't innocent it was all due to the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow and white privilege etc etc etc......

And so the long and proud tradition of Memphis black Democrats elected to office being convicted of felonies continues. I lived in Memphis back in the late 80s and watched the transition of Democrat and felonies emerge. Now I will admit, in 1988, I was one of two votes for Jesses Jacksons Jrs. in the Democrat primary. I have always wondered who the other person was. I was just doing my patriotic duty to ensure the most unelected Democrat won the nomination. Four years later I took it far enough to be offered to be the Paul Tsongus' President election chairman in LA. I knew then Clinton was gonna win that nomination.

A valuable precedent has been set here, not just in legal terms but Republicans actually growing a set. We could clean up DC if we accept the fact that corruption is corruption and is not a black or white, Democrat or Republican thing. We must deal with it anywhere we see it, America deserves better.

Former Vice President Mike Pence has been extremely quiet since January 6th, when he presided over an Electoral College objection process that was cut short by his rules decisions. Amid the Capitol uprising that even spurred him to be ushered out by the Secret Service, it seemed to be a foregone conclusion that Pence must have been partial to the arguments that there were no major irregularities in the 2020 elections. Pence put that presumption to rest today with an op-ed published at the conservative Daily Signal. In the opinion piece, the former vice president weighs in on the “election irregularities”

If you are like me, you face each day knowing that some other crazy claim will sweep up millions of uncritical people, people willing to live in a contrafactual and contralegal world. There are too many examples of these waves of lunatic hysteria to recount here but let me note two:  Russiagate and BLM.  Russiagate  Media coverage of the developments debunking the preposterous claim that the President colluded with Russia is both spotty and sparse. There’s a reason for it. Major media almost entirely swallowed the claim, conspired with its promoters, endlessly and prominently mongered it and has never apologized for so doing.

President Biden’s announcement that the United States will ban imports of Russian oil caused the price of crude to surge on Tuesday morning. However, the pain that Americans are set to feel at the gas pump could eventually be offset if Congress were to pass Biden’s Build Back Better agenda, a new study finds. An analysis released Tuesday by the nonpartisan think tank Energy Innovation finds that the climate change provisions of Biden’s now-defunct proposal, such as tax credits for buying new electric vehicles, would have reduced U.S. oil consumption by 2025 by half of the roughly 200,000 barrels of crude oil from Russia

DeSantis is expected to sign the bill into law in the coming days after it passed the state legislature on Tuesday.

But transforming our economy to run on electric vehicles, powered by clean energy, will mean that no one will have to worry about gas prices. It will mean tyrants like Putin won’t be able to use fossil fuels as a weapon,” the president tweeted.“It should motivate us to accelerate the transition to clean energy,”

Instead, the flurry of Facebook and Twitter posts offer, without evidence, that a nefarious scheme is underway: President Joe Biden’s administration is intentionally driving up the price of gas to get more American drivers behind the wheel of an electric car. “$6.00 a gallon gas is how you get people to buy electric cars,” claims one popular

The advancement of the America-First policy agenda in Washington has been ground down to a halt due to ineffective leadership and Republican infighting within the House of Representatives. This party disunity has left a leadership vacuum that has given progressives in Washington a window to pursue the failed Biden agenda and spend trillions of dollars in the process, leaving future generations of Americans to pay the price. Americans are fed up with this failed agenda and it is showing.
