Bill In Decades Into Law Following Republican Support
Posted By: Imright, 6/25/2022 12:38:46 PM
President Joe Biden signed a gun control bill into law Saturday that gives financial grants to states for “red-flag” laws and increases background check stipulations for 18 to 21-year-olds, following Republican support. The bill, dubbed the “Bipartisan Safer Communities Act,” passed after making it through Congress earlier this week with 15 Republicans in the Senate supporting the bill and 14 House Republicans voting in favor. According to the White House, the law “enhances certain restrictions and penalties on firearms purchases; promotes evidence-based best practices for school safety; authorizes grants to expand access to mental health services; and

In a stunning moment Sunday, the Democrat gubernatorial nominee for the state of Georgia, Stacey Abrams admitted exactly where her party stands when it comes to abortion. In an appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” Abrams flatly refused–twice–to reject abortions taking place up to the point of birth. (Tweet) Fox News:
Abrams was pressed during a “Fox News Sunday” interview to respond to the Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade on Friday and whether she believed there should be any limitations on abortion.
Abortion enthusiasts have been telling so many lies since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last week, it’s hard to take them seriously.
Now President Biden and Speaker Nancy Pelosi are salivating at the prospect that “abortion is on the ballot,” as opposed to inflation, crime, border security and all the issues that have the Democrats under water and without a viable policy.
But abortion may not be the electoral game-changer they hope for, and largely that’s because the lies they tell themselves and their supporters have caused them to lose touch with the reality of America.

In reading the book, people will see her honest and straightforward account. They will understand why she was so vital to the Trump campaign as a smart, articulate, and talented woman. It was a pleasure to interview her
Project Veritas on Sunday released leaked audio of a Democrat US Senate candidate’s phone call with an inmate at Perry Correctional Institution calling for “secret sleepers” to infiltrate the South Carolina Republican party.
“We need some secret sleepers. Like you need them to run as the other side, even though they for our side. And we need them to win,” Krystle Matthews, a Democrat South Carolina State Rep. running for US Senate said in the leaked audio. “We need people to run as Republicans in these local elections. This is the only way you’re gonna change the dynamics in South Carolina.”
Former President Donald Trump issued a severe smackdown to his Republican haters in a statement on Sunday, characterizing them as talentless fools.
Calling out George Will, Rich Lowry, Jonah Goldberg, and others by name, the former president said that nobody should listen to such “foolish (stupid!) people”:
I listen to all of these foolish (stupid!) people, often living in a bygone era, like the weak and frail RINO, Peggy Noonan, who did much less for Ronald Reagan than she claims, and who actually said bad things about him and his ability to speak, or Rich Lowry, who has destroyed the once wonderful and influential National Review,
What an embarrassment.
Joe Biden needed some help today to sit and pose for a photo with G7 leaders in Germany. (Photo) German Chancellor Olaf Scholz welcomed global leaders of the Group of Seven rich democracies to a three-day summit in the Bavarian Alps on Sunday.
The global leaders took turns babysitting Joe Biden as he stumbled through the day and slurred his speech in front of the G7.Joe Biden insisted another pandemic is on the horizon.
House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff begrudgingly admitted this Sunday that he’s “yet to see any indication” that former President Donald Trump is under investigation by the Department of Justice.
He made the bombshell admission while predictably complaining about the DOJ’s refusal to directly charge Trump.
Speaking on MSNBC’s “Meet the Press,” he was asked by host Chuck Todd whether the DOJ’s recent actions, including the Orwellian arrest of Trump-era Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Clark, have inspired more confidence in him.
“This week the Department of Justice certainly let the public know it was doing a lot more on Jan. 6th than we’d seen in the past. I think there were subpoenas served
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that it was not his “principle interest” that former President Donald Trump be criminally charged for his actions surrounding the January 6, 2021 riot on Capitol Hill.
Partial transcript as follows:
RADDATZ: Given this week’s testimony, will you be – all the testimony really, will you be disappointed if the Justice Department does not file charges against Donald Trump?
RASKIN: You know, the – I have to tell you, speaking for myself, that is not my principle interest. I mean our democracy is on the line here. Our Constitution is at stake.
Rudy Giuliani was slapped by a worker at a ShopRite on Staten Island on Sunday while campaigning for his son, leaving the 78-year-old former New York City mayor shaken, the ex-pol told The Post.
Giuliani said he had just gotten out of the men’s room at the store on Veteran’s Road and was being greeted by a bunch of supporters when he was suddenly hit from behind — an incident caught on surveillance video obtained by The Post.
“All of a sudden, I feel this, ‘Bam!’ on my back,” Giuliani said. “I don’t know if they helped me not fall down, but I just about fell down, but I didn’t.

It’s an interesting day to wake up in America this morning.
The Supreme Court just finished its most historic session since 1973. It corrected massive wrongs perpetrated in cases so pervasive that had it not done so we would have been within a hairs breath of losing our first and second amendment rights or good!
It did and will do even more good in the days to come.
It defended the religious liberties that our founders acknowledged were given to us by God. It defended voter integrity by a judgement of 8-1. In a sizable majority it instructed states that have been stomping on the second amendment
Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) advanced a bill to ban abortion pills from being prescribed online.
During CBS’s Face the Nation, Noem told host Margaret Brennan that abortion care providers will no longer be able to prescribe the pills through telemedicine appointments.
“These are very dangerous medical procedures,” Noem told Brennan, adding “we don’t believe it should be available because it is a dangerous situation for an individual without being medically supervised by a physician.”
In March, the Republican governor signed a bill requiring patients seeking an abortion through medication, to go to a third appointment in-person before being given the second dose.
WASHINGTON— President Joe Biden rarely mentions his predecessor by name. But as he spoke to a nation processing a seismic shift in the rights of women, he couldn’t ignore Donald Trump’s legacy.
“It was three justices named by one president — Donald Trump — who were the core of today’s decision to upend the scales of justice and eliminate a fundamental right for women in this country,” Biden said Friday after the Supreme Court’s conservative majority voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark ruling from 1973 that provided constitutional protections for women seeking abortions.
The abortion decision marked the apex in a week that reinforced the former president’s ongoing impact

Green Day front man Billie Joe Armstrong says he is lost to the U.S. forever. On Friday night he declared “f**k America” before adding he was “renouncing his citizenship” in the aftermath of the SCOTUS abortion ruling.
The landmark Supreme Court decision in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health case, which overturned the long-standing 1973 Roe v. Wade judgement, sparked violent public upheaval across the country over the past 72-hours, as Breitbart News reported.
Now it has met a response across the pond.
Armstrong, 50, made his personal declaration during a Friday night concert in London, letting his audience know he believes: “There’s too much f*****g stupid in the world.”

Former President Bill Clinton’s disgraced paramour, Monica Lewinsky, simply could not contain her rage after the Supreme Court overturned the landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade, going on a profane Twitter rant against the justices.
Language and sexual innuendo warning on all sides for this one.
Showing an utter lack of breeding and contempt for the Supreme Court ruling as the country succumbs to violence, Lewinsky tweeted, “f*** you roberts. f*** you thomas. f*** you alito. f*** you kavanaugh. f*** you gorsuch. f** you coney barrett.” The response to her profane tirade was swift and blistering. Lewinsky was pummeled on social media.

Democrats for years have been promoting the notion that Republicans are congenitally racist, regulur Bull Connors. It's the old Norman Rockwell painting of a little black girl clad in a white dress, being escorted by lawmen into a desegregating school in Mississippi, with foul racist graffiti and tomato stains on the wall behind her, that serves as their template for Republicans -- despite the fact that the people who opposed desegregation in the Deep South were Democrats.
The stereotype they pin on Republicans does not stop. It's that of the jewel-bedecked rich lady sniffing up her nose, looking down at, and brushing aside the dreaded hoi polloi
Republican Rep. Mayra Flores of Texas, who was sworn in as a member of Congress on Tuesday, once called for the jailing of Hillary Clinton and gave her view about both the 2020 presidential election and the January 6 riot at the US Capitol.
In a series of tweets first revealed by CNN's KFILE on Thursday, Flores used her personal Twitter account @LARepublicana86 to promote her conservative views and defend former President Donald Trump on the day of the Capitol attack.
"If we allow the Democrats to steal THIS election, they will steal EVERY election moving forward!" she tweeted ahead of the riot, CNN reported.
It sounds like Colin Kaepernick’s workout with the Raiders was terrible.
The Raiders worked out the former 49ers quarterback, who last played in 2016, and the decision immediately sent shockwaves through the NFL. However, it went about as bad as it could go, according to former Raiders player Warren Sapp. (Tweet) “I heard it was a disaster. I heard it was one of the worst workouts ever. I’m wondering how the hell this happened and the tape didn’t get out, right,” Sapp explained during an interview on VladTV.

The White House announced plans on Sunday to spend $200 billion on solar projects in Angola, an undersea telecommunications cable linking the Far East with France via Egypt, and nuclear power production in Romania as part of a huge G7 infrastructure plan designed to compete with China's massive Belt and Road initiative.
The proposals were unveiled on the first day of the G7 summit in Germany, where world leaders met to discuss the global economy and Russia's war in Ukraine.
In all, G7 nations will commit $600 billion to the effort over the next five years, President Joe Biden announced, calling the investment a humanitarian, economic and security concern.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed without evidence on Sunday that some U.S. Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade “lied” under oath during their confirmation hearings, which she said is “an impeachable offense.”
Ocasio-Cortez made the remarks during an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” with host Chuck Todd, who brought up how Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) said that the justices had testified “under oath.”
“They lied,” Ocasio-Cortez claimed. “If we allow Supreme Court nominees to lie under, under oath and secure lifetime appointments to the highest court of the land and then issue, issue without basis
The United States—long a beacon to reproductive rights activists in Latin America—will now start to resemble those countries without Roe’s guarantee of a right to legally access abortion, say campaigners. For activists in places such as El Salvador, where abortion is entirely banned, and Venezuela, where there exists on the statute an exception to save the life of a woman though in practice is equally criminal, the decades-long success of campaigners in the US was often an inspiration. For women in Argentina, where “Green Wave” activists succeeded in their own landmark victory to secure legal abortion in late 2020, there was support from counterparts in the US
Prince William and Kate Middleton's first official joint portrait--unveiled on Thursday in Cambridge--has been panned by Britain's leading art critics, suggesting that viewers wanting to see a truer likeness would be "better off going to Madame Tussaud's."

FROMBERG — As Fromberg residents worked to clear the muck and river water from their homes Thursday, a FEMA spokesperson said people should manage their expectations about federal aid. “If you’re waiting for the federal government or somebody else to help you that help may or may not come, and I’m not sure when it will come,” FEMA spokesperson Leo Skinner said Thursday in Stillwater County. “So I always tell people, this is a tough line to tell people, ‘Take responsibility for your own disaster recovery.’” On Thursday, Gov.
