Turley Proposes Red State Alliance Against
Blue State Boycotts

Original Article

Posted By: Black Conservative Voice, 8/8/2022 6:53:08 AM

Constitutional law scholar Jonathan Turley of George Washington University Law School has proposed an alliance among conservative “red” states to engage in counter-boycotts against any liberal “blue” state, such as California, that boycotts first. The proposal is a response to efforts by blue states to ban state-funded travel to red states that enact conservative laws on issues such as transgender bathrooms in school, biological men participating in women’s sports, and restrictions on abortion. California, for example, currently bans state-funded travel to 22 states. While such bans are difficult to enforce —

I understand that conservatives want to live peacefully. Problem is, that leftists are going to keep pushing until they are confronted. I'm in 100% and will never spend a minute or dollar in NY, CA, or IL until leadership improves. My next vacation will be in my home state of Florida.

But the bans don't apply to Kalifornia public figures, do they?

I'm perfectly happy with Californians not coming to my state for any reason. They bring nothing but trouble with them.

Fine with me. I usually vacation in Tennessee and Florida. I have no desire to go to New York, Illinois or California.

This can be tried, of course. But the instant it inconveniences some blue haired harpy the interstate commerce clause will be instantly unsheathed. One suspects that the only reason it has yet to be employed is, as has been noted, when red states are boycotted red staters just say, "Thank you."

It's going to be hard! If I can't walk through poop in Kalifornia, dodge bullets in Chicongo or wrestle knife wielding feral thugs in NY, I guess I'll just have to forego my vacation this year. I guess I could take a chance with RINO Cheneys fav governor and try the beaches in Florida.

The coastals live in cities of 1, 2, 5 million people. Everyone around them seems to agree with them. So they make "product" that reflects their reality. To great regional acclaim. Completely oblivious to an non-regional effect. That they are teaching 200 million other customers to hate them. Worse, that's just the domestic market. Globally, deep, deep, deep, hatred for Hollywood... That's why Chinese and Middle Eastern releases have to be censored.

I'm all for such an alliance but instead of calling it a Red State alliance, it should be called Constitutional Sanctuary alliance - or the 10th Amendment Alliance, where the Blue State restrictions on our Bill of Rights cannot be enforced.

Sadly, doing so will only accelerate the coming civil war. What needs to happen if for Blue states need to re-think what they are doing......but that's just a pipe dream.

Yesterday Donald Trump announced that his Florida home Mar-a-Lago is "under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents," saying, "They even broke into my safe!" The search, according to multiple people familiar with the investigation, appeared to be focused on material that Mr. Trump had brought with him to Mar-a-Lago, his private club, and residence when he left the White House. Those boxes contained many pages of classified documents, according to a person familiar with their contents. To make matters worse, there are cheers inside the Biden White House when they found out about the news.

Eric Trump, son of former President Donald Trump, on Monday dropped the latest hint that his dad could be set to return to the presidential campaign trail as he slammed the FBI raid at the former president's Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida. During an appearance on Fox News' "Hannity," Trump accused Democrats of orchestrating the raid that took place earlier in the day because they "don't want" his dad running for president again in 2024, but admitted, for the first time, that he hopes the former president "goes out and beats" them again.

The mother of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died shortly after the infamous mob riot at the Capitol, told the Daily Mail that he did not die from being struck on the head by a fire extinguisher, further destroying one now-debunked piece of the narrative propelling outrage and investigations into who was in D.C. on Jan. 6. “We think he had a stroke, but we don’t know anything for sure,” Gladys Sicknick said almost a month after stories about her son being bludgeoned to death by Trump supporters went viral. “We’d love to know what happened.” Gladys’s confirmation completely undermines the erroneous coverage promoted and propelled by corrupt corporate media institutions

Having Republicans choose between being the “Party of Lincoln” or the “Party of Reagan” can be like asking a parent to pick a favorite child, unless the topic is strictly economics. The “new right” and the “free-market conservatives” are at war centered on their economic policy divide, forcing members of the Republican Party to choose a side: common good conservatism or free-market fundamentalists.

The Republican governor revealed in a statement that the migrant bus arrived at Gate 14 of the Port Authority Bus Terminal, but did not provide any additional details — such as how many people were on board or their countries of origin.

Though the debate will likely be remembered by the New Yorkers who watched it as one where Nadler bumbled a lot and where there at times were tense moments between the two powerful Democrats, it’s what they said about President Joe Biden during the debate that has attracted the most media attention. During a lightning round at the debate, each candidate was asked if they believed President Biden should run for office again in 2024.

A standoff between Dutch farmers and their government is causing havoc in the Netherlands this summer. Protesters have withheld deliveries from grocery stores, smeared manure outside the home of the agriculture minister, and blocked highways with hay bales and tires. “That’s what you get when you make people so very angry,” Sieta van Keimpema, secretary of the Farmers Defense Force (FDF), said July 27 as the group launched a fresh round of demonstrations. What’s driving the dispute? The liberal logic says manure. The Netherlands’ intensive livestock farming system produces an unusual excess of animal feces. When mixed with urine, those feces give off ammonia and nitrous oxide.

On Monday evening, the FBI took the unprecedented step of raiding the home of former President Donald Trump. What were they looking for? Astonishingly, what is being leaked to the media is that they were after documents that possibly violated the Presidential Records Act. Far from their promises of proving some grand conspiracy involving January 6th, it appears the Democrats, using the power of the nation’s federal law enforcement apparatus, are trying to take Donald Trump out with selective enforcement of provisions that are normally handled in a civil, not criminal manner. Where have we seen that before? None of this is a coincidence, and none of it is justified.

He later connected the raid to the Senate’s passage of the radical $700 billion Inflation Reduction Act, which among other things, allots $80 billion to hire 87,000 new IRS enforcement agents “to target Americans with as many as one million additional audits per year on taxpayers earning less than $200,000
