Consider the following social experiment There is a hall with 100 people seated within, among them only 5 individuals are given megaphones. Next, you seat an audience at a distance such that the only sound audible from the hall are those emanating from the megaphones. The group then engages in a discussion about Citizen X whose recent utterances have caused him to be embroiled in a controversy. The 5 individuals in the hall with megaphones want X banned from public life forever.

Here’s the Deal with Mike Pence
10 replies
On February 9, 2022, Andrew W. Coy asked, “What’s the Deal with Mike Pence?” One thing is that former Vice President Pence was always a weak leader.
While he was governor, Indiana passed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 2015, which essentially clarified a federal law that Democrats overwhelmingly sponsored and President Clinton signed into law. Then-senator Barack Obama supported a similar state law in Illinois. Indiana’s version simply stated that, in civil cases, courts could consider religious burdens that the conflict caused. The law never said religion would trump any other right.
What's the Deal With Mike Pence?

What in God's name is Mike Pence doing? And for Pence, I do mean in God's name.
Is Mike Pence a traitor to conservatives? Is Pence trying to become the next John Dean, the Watergate traitor? Is Pence trying to be just like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger? Is Pence really a part of the Deep State? Has Pence sold out President Trump for 30 pieces of silver? Unfortunately, it appears that some of the answers to these questions could be "yes."
Unbelievable. Mike Pence has apparently sold out President Trump, MAGA Nation, and the America First agenda. Why is it that Democrats never turn on Democrats,

“Every word he says he is a lie. A nose as long as the trucker‘s convoy.”

When thousands of truckers drove toward Ottawa in protest against the vaccine mandates, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described them as “the small fringe minority” holding “unacceptable views.”
As the movement gained momentum and the truckers were joined and cheered on by scores of their compatriots objecting to Canada’s regime of Covid oppression, Trudeau implied that they were racists and Nazis. This he added on top of his earlier characterization of those who object to his policies as misogynists, science deniers, purveyors of misinformation and conspiracy theorists.
Peter Schweizer is an Oxford graduate, former Hoover Institution Fellow, and cofounder and president of the Government Accountability Institute of Tallahassee, Florida. He is a widely read and interviewed investigative journalist and has authored popular and well received books on political corruption: Clinton Cash, Extortion, Throw Them All Out, and Architects of Ruin.
The book is the usual fare from Schweizer — based on well documented and researched financial records that support assertions of the author. In this book, the focus is corruption in high places that results from cozy entanglements with China.
A few days ago, Politico.com reported that The New York Times was suing the Biden’s State Department for withholding correspondence mentioning Hunter Biden which is in possession of the US Embassy in Romania.
In its lawsuit, filed in federal court in Manhattan, the NYT states that they had on two separate occasions placed requests, under the Freedom of Information Act.
The State Department had responded that the requested records would be provided only after April 15, 2023. The law requires all federal agencies to respond to a FOIA request within 20 business days unless there are "unusual circumstances."
Will We End Up Invading Canada?

The old stereotype of Canadians as slow-talking, syrup-slurping igloo jockeys has been dashed this week as our friends to the north have launched a peaceful working class revolt against the blackface-wearing clown they have as their prime minister, as well as against that country’s entire ruling caste. We patriotic Americans stand in solidarity with the big rig truckers pushing back against The Man – although that assumes their oppressor’s gender. But, in this Age of Insanity, there’s always the possibility of chaos – even in Canada.
CharityWatch Executive Director Laurie Styron commented to New York magazine about Black Lives Matter’s $60 million in cash left over from fundraising in 2020, saying BLM was like a “giant ghost ship full of treasure drifting in the night with no captain, no discernible crew, and no clear direction.” Indeed, no one — including any of the so-called “leaders” at Black Lives Matter — knows who’s in charge of that money.
Maybe the weirdest part of the Joe Rogan–Neil Young fight is the ridiculous position Neil Young has staked out on "illegal" drug use.
For those of you under age 50, Neil Young was a moderately famous Canadian rocker from years ago who, like his band mate David Crosby, was notorious for ingesting loads of controlled substances and living to tell the tale.
There is a hilarious send-up of Young by SCTV at the end of this sketch that gets it dead-on.
Drug arrests were a big part of his earlier career, although in the last decade he claimed to be exploring a new perspective
Special Counsel John Durham is not yet finished with his investigation into the Obamagate scandal, and a new report says his efforts have expanded.
According to recent court filings, Durham has gained access to a significant amount of FBI internal affairs files in his effort to uncover the Obama administration’s maneuvers to promote bogus allegations against Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election. Team Obama’s disingenuous investigation of the anti-Trump allegations, called Crossfire Hurricane, relied on the discredited Christopher Steele dossier, which was paid for by party activists.
At the beginning of January, Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada, posted a message on Twitter in which he announced that he had just received his Covid vaccine booster and urged others to do likewise. At the end of January, Justin Trudeau posted a message on Twitter in which he announced that he had tested positive for Covid-19.
Astoundingly, at the conclusion of his message Trudeau urged everyone to get the shots even though they failed to protect him from the disease.
Biden isn’t even pretending that anything other than race and sex are the most important metrics for his Supreme Court choice. And of course, the usual RINOs couldn’t agree more with quotas for the Supreme Court. Perhaps these out-of-touch politicians would do well to pay attention to the American people, though, because Americans think it’s a terrible idea to make intellectual qualifications the least important thing.
Lindsey Graham, a man of tremendous charm and no backbone, has already surrendered on the issue. When he heard that J. Michelle Childs, a U.S. District Court Judge from South Carolina, was on the short list, Graham couldn’t have been more excited.

More than three dozen House Republicans are demanding that President Joe Biden submits to a cognitive test and outlined their concerns about his fitness for office in a searing letter sent on Wednesday.
Thirty-seven GOP lawmakers signed onto the letter, written by former White House physician Rep. Ronny Jackson. 'The American people should have absolute confidence in their President. They deserve to know that he or she can perform the duties of Head of State and Commander-in-Chief,' the letter, obtained by Fox, states.(Snip)It comes after recent polling showed a growing number of Americans having doubts about Biden's mental fitness.
The White House on Wednesday announced that Vice President Kamala Harris will travel to Europe next week as part of an effort to deter Russian aggression against Ukraine.She will meet allies and partners at the Munich Security Conference. 'This trip is about engaging our allies and partners and building upon the intensive engagement that is already under way,' an official said. At the same time it emerged that the White House has reportedly signed off on a Pentagon plan to use U.S. troops in Poland to help evacuate American citizens from Ukraine if Russia invaded.
Two Senate Democrats up for reelection proposed a bill on Wednesday to temporarily suspend the federal gas tax through the end of 2022, as millions of Americans grapple with the economic impacts of surging oil prices. The Gas Prices Relief Act from Sens. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., and Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., would suspend the $18.4 cents per gallon federal gas tax through Jan. 1, 2023, according to a summary of the proposal shared with ABC News. The senators, who are both on the ballot in November, released the proposal at a time when gas is roughly $3.45 a gallon nationwide, about
Joe Biden got 81 million votes.
It really happened.Democrats and their media lackeys are so certain of this that they will not allow anyone to inspect the voting machines.** In Arizona Democrat Secretary of State Katie Hobbs argued that Maricopa County would be forced to replace their Dominion voting machines if they were inspected by investigators. The machines were so delicate that they can never be audited. That’s weird?Also in Arizona election workers were caught on video deleting “archived” files before the machines were turned over
So, it looks like the White House is doing damage control on CrackPipeGate. After The Washington Free Beacon published a report on a grant being offered by the Department of Health and Human Services that would fund, in part, the distribution of crack pipes to “underserved” communities, the Biden administration faced outrage coming from conservatives and others. Even Snopes tried to come to the White House’s rescue.
The Free Beacon reported:
The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday
In Ottawa, authorities have declared a state of emergency over the parked big-rigs, and are now issuing threats to any Canadians who seek to bring supplies to the protesters.
Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson declared a state of emergency Sunday afternoon as approximately 500 trucks and vehicles with the “Freedom Convoy” continue to linger in the streets of the Canadian capital to protest vaccine mandates.
“Declaring a state of emergency reflects the serious danger and threat to the safety and security of residents posed by the ongoing demonstrations and highlights the need for support from other jurisdictions and levels of government,” the city said in a statement.
Marjorie Taylor Greene accidentally used the word 'gazpacho' – which is a cold Spanish soup – when meaning to accuse House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of using Capitol Police as Nazi 'gestapos' to spy on GOP lawmakers.The Republican Georgia congresswoman insisted in an interview with One America News on Wednesday that United States Capitol Police (USCP) are being used as 'political pawns' and Pelosi is 'sending them into our offices' to take pictures and snoop around.She said Pelosi is also having them probe visitors who want to meet with members of Congress.
American-born-and-raised Olympic skier Eileen Gu reportedly gave up her American passport and was naturalized as a Chinese citizen to compete in the Beijing Winter Olympics for communist China, new reports highlighted last week.
After growing up and training in the United States and competing as a member of the U.S. freestyle ski team, Gu revealed on Instagram in 2019 that she had decided to compete for China in the Beijing Winter Olympics.(snip)China doesn’t recognize dual citizenships, and Red Bull, which sponsors Gu, said on its website that “US-born Gu decided to give up her American passport and naturalize as a Chinese citizen in order to compete for China in Beijing—
US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg claimed on Wednesday that Florida Republicans' controversial Parental Rights in Education bill could drive up LGBTQ youth suicide rates if it's implemented. It's part of an all-out offensive the White House seems to have mounted against the legislation, which President Joe Biden denounced as 'hateful' on Tuesday evening. Republican lawmakers in the Sunshine State are working to pass a bill that bans discussion of sexual orientation or gender identity in state public schools from kindergarten through fifth grade. It also encourages parents to sue school districts that promote talking about such issues.(Snip)Buttigieg, the first openly gay official to lead a department within
The Department of Homeland Security issued a Bulletin on Tuesday that sounds precisely like a prelude to a totalitarian crackdown on political dissent from the preferred narratives of the Biden regime and the deep state. Read the opening of the summary:
"The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM)"
A majority of New York City residents say they agree with COVID-19 vaccine mandates–and they’re angry with the minority who refuse to get jabbed, a survey released Thursday shows. Residents polled by the CUNY Graduate School of Public Health said the coronavirus vaccine should be required for people who work in service industries and schools, and should be a mandate for indoor activities and airplane travel. More than half of New York respondents—54 percent—said they are angry with the small percentage of residents who have refused to get vaxxed.(Snip)“The mask lifting heightens the need to get vaccinated,” said Dr. Aymen El-Mohandes, dean of
