House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and a Democratic congressional delegation landed in Taiwan on Tuesday, following through with a visit that brought condemnation and threats from China and could sever already strained relations between Washington and Beijing. Upon the arrival of Pelosi (D-Calif.) in Taipei around 10:45 p.m. local time, she became the highest-ranking US elected official to travel to the island nation since then-House Speaker Newt Gingrich in 1997. Reports had circulated for weeks that Pelosi would go to Taiwan as part of an Asian tour during the August House recess.

Is she going to make some deals that Paul Pee can invest in so they aren’t stuck with that measly $200 MM net worth? After all, what’s the point of wealth and power if you can’t use it to get more?

I'm disappointed in China. They makes threats of violence against Piglosi and don't carry through. I wonder how they're going to save face now. I thought the Chinese people believed in their military prowess and honor above all else. And they can't even manage a simple missile attack on Piglosi's plane. I guess my impression of the Chinese Communist Parties evil is over rated. I'm truly disappointed.

Nancy Pelosi and her speed demon husband Paulie are knee deep in Chinese money and corruption. Just like FJB and Cecil the Turtle Addison McConnell. The latter due to his trophy wife Elaine Chao's stake in her daddy's Chicom shipping business. It is quite funny and pathetically typical how the fake news media including Fox News is reporting the whole thing. The witch doesn't do a thing to benefit We the People so what is her real reason for going there?

Right-wing Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said Thursday that "globalists can all go to hell," as he invited American conservatives to join hands in a worldwide fight against progressives. The nationalist leader was guest of honor at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Texas, where his tub-thumping speech was greeted with wild applause. "We have seen what kind of future the globalist ruling class has to offer, but we have a different future in mind. The globalists can all go to hell," he told a cheering crowd.

Democrats love taxes. The never-ending promise that they won’t raise taxes almost always leads to more taxes. So why should we believe the Inflation Reduction Act won’t lead to a hideous tax burden on the American people? Well, we shouldn’t. (Tweet) Joe Manchin, who voted against the Green New Deal, is now wholeheartedly supporting The Inflation Reduction Act. The bill includes prescription drug negotiations, climate change legislation, and tax reforms and would require a 50-50 Senate split between Republicans and Democrats.

Biden, who already owns a 1967 Corvette Stingray, quickly corrected himself, adding, “while I’m president.” GM plans to release a Corvette Hybrid as early as 2023 followed by a fully electric model, according to US News & World Report.

Earlier this week, The Gateway Pundit reported that the team of local candidates in El Paso County, CO filed a lawsuit against the Secretary of State and the El Paso Co Clerk. The lawsuit would compel the CO Secretary of State to conduct the recount while assigning the Clerk and Recorder as an official observer to the recount.

Vice President Kamala Harris has been slammed online as a hypocrite after she condemned Russian officials for sentencing basketball star Brittney Griner to nine years in prison for drug smuggling. The WNBA star was found guilty on Thursday by a judge who rejected her claim she accidentally brought a marijuana pen into the country. Prosecutors had asked that she be jailed for nine-and-a-half years, six months less than the maximum of 10 years in prison. Her attorneys say they have ten days to appeal the verdict and sentencing, and that the typical sentence handed down for such a crime is six years.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan lasted just 19 hours, but furious officials in Beijing are making clear that the fallout will continue for a long time to come, affecting both U.S.-China ties and relations across the Taiwan Strait. Defying China’s warnings, Pelosi flew from Malaysia to Taiwan on a U.S. Air Force plane on Tuesday night and held warm meetings with Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen, lawmakers, and human rights activists, declaring U.S. support for Taiwan’s democracy to be “iron-clad.” Her delegation then flew out early Wednesday evening, bound for Osan air base in South Korea, the second-to-last stop of a regional tour.

According to Patrick Basham, there are such things as “non-polling metrics” -- things like comparative party registrations, turnouts in the primary elections, social media followings, attendance at campaign rallies and other measures that had, prior to the 2020 presidential election, predicted the outcome of presidential elections with 100% accuracy. In 2020, all these measures pointed to a Trump victory. In attendance at campaign rallies, for example, Trump’s average attendance exceeded Biden’s by a average ratio of 343 to 1. And yet Biden won. There were other anomalies: “…Biden could win only one of the 19 battleground counties around the U.S., but

Results are still pending in Arizona’s Republican gubernatorial primary, though former Fox 10 Phoenix anchor Kari Lake leads her opponent Karrin Taylor Robson. It is unclear when a winner could be declared. Lake, backed by former President Donald J. Trump, holds a more than 11,300 vote lead over Robson with 80 percent reporting, the Associated Press election results compiled by the New York Times show. Lake has 294,260 votes versus Robson’s 282,936. In a tweet, Dave Wasserman of the Cook Report suggested Lake will come away with the nomination, though only one county is reporting more than 95 percent of its votes.

During the segment, Goldberg made arguments suggesting that God is fine with abortion.

Goldberg also argued that Jesus Christ's teaching of, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," obliged her to not speak out against abortion lest she risk judging others.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is rapidly building a reputation for herself as the high priestess of ill-preparedness. “I would have to get back to you on that” is her typical reply to even the most elementary of questions. She also isn't exactly an adept wordsmith. If she continues down this path, perhaps someday she may surpass Kamala Harris. Just yesterday, Joe Biden signed an executive order that ensures access to abortion for women following the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade (1973). Biden said the order helps women travel out of state to receive abortions, ensuring that health care providers comply with federal law
