Republicans are expressing fury over allegations Hillary Clinton operatives paid a contractor to spy on former President Donald Trump during his 2016 campaign and into his presidency.They are calling it the “biggest crime in U.S. history” while demanding “a total clean out of the political class in Washington.”Taking to social media, Republican lawmakers offered critical reactions, with Trump calling the scandal “worse than Watergate,” after Special Counsel John Durham filed a motion in federal court in Washington D.C. on Friday alleging Hillary Clinton’s political allies paid a contractor to spy on the former president — both as a candidate, and as president.

Hmmmmph. The GOP must surely be hurting for money if they're backing Trump. They've received too many empty begging envelopes with the words DROP DEAD in red scrawled across the contribution section. Bombshell this, outrage that. In the end, the GOP will do absolutely NOTHING. Football. Lucy.

The total clean out of the Washington political class will not be performed by either democrats or republicans. These are the people who make their own beds and sleep in them any time they like. The only thing they are good at is voting themselves raises, benefits and creating laws favorable to government. Where else can people on the inside buy stock based on decisions they will make? Where else is a four year term a guarantee of lifetime income and medical care? Where else can a lowly middle-school-brained bartender live better than 95% of the people in this country? Where else can foreigners who hate real Americans be given the power to insult us? If these elites are brought down to earth it will be by We the People and it will be a hard landing.

OK, so we fire McConnell, and McCarthy, and get rid of all the NeverTrump "Republican" Senators and Congresscritters......that leaves about two or three Senators and a couple of dozen Congresscritters.....are they willing to get rid of 3/4 or more of their "good GOP politicians"? Sorry, not buying it. How many of the backstabbers in DC that were INSIDE the Trump government were "good Republicans" who did everything they could to cooperate with these corrupt investigations and to harm Trump and stop his initiatives? LOTS of them.

WASHINGTON— A federal judge on Friday rejected efforts by former President Donald Trump to toss out conspiracy lawsuits filed by lawmakers and two Capitol police officers, saying in his ruling that the former president’s words “plausibly” may have led to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection. U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta said in his ruling that Trump’s words during a rally before the violent storming of the U.S. Capitol were likely “words of incitement not protected by the First Amendment.”Trump told his supporters to “Fight like hell and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”

Anyone who has followed political journalism for more than a minute or two could predict how some big outlets would cover the revelation that operatives connected to the Hillary Clinton campaign spied on the Trump campaign. Once legacy media journalists saw the story reported on Fox News, and especially when they saw former President Donald Trump promoting it, they immediately thought: How can we knock this down?Normally, when news breaks — and the spying information was contained in a court filing by Justice Department special counsel John Durham — a news organization first reports the news. Then it might publish one or more analysis pieces,

Experts are warning that an increase in buried bodies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could be having an impact in the environment. In the U.S. alone, the number of people who have died with COVID-19 exceeded 900,000 this month and the number is increasing all the time. Around the world, the death toll is over 5.8 million according to the World Health Organization (WHO), though some estimates of excess mortality—a measure comparing all deaths recorded with those expected to occur—have put that figure close to 20 million. What this means is that burial facilities have faced unprecedented pressure as they attempt to allocate space and resources to store the bodies

Democrats are beginning to want change in the White House, whether it is a new strategy since the administration has minimal accomplishments or new top staffers surrounding President Joe Biden. While Biden’s poll numbers are falling — recently receiving his lowest approval numbers at 33 percent — it appears that he is failing on the political front, according to a recent report from NBC News. The report stated that the president’s message isn’t resonating with Americans. His party’s chances of keeping their congressional majority are slim, his Build Back Better plan is dead, he failed at fixing the Chinese coronavirus, and inflation is on the rise.

The party’s brand is so toxic in the small towns 100 miles northeast of Pittsburgh that some liberals have removed bumper stickers and yard signs and refuse to acknowledge their party affiliation publicly. These Democrats are used to being outnumbered by the local Republican majority, but as their numbers continue to dwindle, the few that remain are feeling increasingly isolated and unwelcome in their own communities. “The hatred for Democrats is just unbelievable,” said Tim Holohan, an accountant based in rural McKean County who

So far, Justin Trudeau’s invocation of the Emergencies Act hasn’t yielded any overt scenes of state power; no clouds of tear gas or columns of troops being marched into the capital. But it’s very different story within the Canadian financial sector. One of the most far-reaching implications of the Emergencies Act is what it prescribes for the Canadian financial system. According to the government’s new Emergency Economic Measures Order, every single bank, credit union, investment broker and insurance provider in the country has been deputized to figure out if they have a blockader as a client, and to immediately freeze their accounts if so.
