One day after the FBI raided former President Donald Trump's Mar-A-Lago, agents confronted U.S. Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) and seized his cell phone while the congressman was at an airport with his family. Three FBI agents approached Perry, handed over a warrant for his cell phone, and then seized the mobile device — apparently without previously trying to contact his attorney. In a statement, Perry slammed the seizure and the Biden administration's politicization of the Justice Department. "This morning, while traveling with my family, 3 FBI agents visited me and seized my cell phone,"

FBI Director Christopher "Wicked" Wray Perhaps Mitch "MultiUseless" McConnell will be "concerned "about recent events. With Chuck's permission, write a stern letter and give extra copies to the staff.

This basically says, they didn't find what they were looking for at Mar-a-Lago. They are getting desperate. So I'm going to say this again to those who wonder why their favorite Conservative Elected Official is suddenly turning squishy. Put yourself in their place and ask yourself if you could do better: The Washington Swamp has for decades been developing strategies to DESTROY people opposed to its narrative. First, they research you, they research your family they research your friends. And that's just the FBI standard SOP to determine your ability to have clearance. They touch base with everyone to determine if you have skeletons in your closet. There are Raw files - the list of everything and everyone you may have been involved with, and the Vetted files which records all evidence they can prove. They don't discard the Raw files, because they have a use, later. Second, they create a profile of your possible habits or inclinations from their research. They want most to get evidence on you that would destroy you if publicly revealed. If that doesn't exist they try to tempt you into perverted or illegal acts. Jeffrey Epstein was a go-to boy of theirs. D.C. is rife with Prostitutes, drugs and plenty of protected perversions. They will try to ambush you, so that you seem to be crooked. Then they will threaten and threaten and release hints through their media allies till you cooperate. Third, If you manage to avoid number two, being an upright Patriot, they go to your friends and family and repeat what they tried above. If even one of your close friends and family is weak stupid, or otherwise compromisable, they will latch onto him or her, then come see you. Then you must let the chips fall where they may, or do their bidding. If they can't get you with your past or through your family and friends, they go to Hollywood and use acting and technology to do what reality wouldn't provide. Even with the new graphics technology - think Lord of the Rings, for example - its difficult and expensive to do , and leaves a trail of potential witnesses. This is a last resort. Usually creating false trails and narratives is more reliable - see Russia Hoax and other Trump related attacks by the Swamp. You can be a Saint going into politics, but you'll be a martyr, at best, leaving. it. Washington D.C. was built on a swamp. It has emulated the Swamp morally, since it was founded.

Sounds like we the public are going to have to have some Damascus Road meetings with those FBI agents who happen to live next door to us. Start putting them on the spot, and do it harshly. Since Congress isn't concerned, we are going to have to take up the slack.

Brings up several questions...HOW did they know where he was? They must have been tracking the phone... Where did they get a warrant to tap/track his phone? Clearly they HAD to know his phone number, why couldn't they merely call and set up an appointment/demand an interview? The Constitution forbids arresting or interfering with Congress critters while traveling. Just Inform him they had a warrant and would serve it unless he appeared?WHY swoop down on him in Public? Wanna bet they had an undercover plant/operative that sent a text or made a call to set this up? Where did they get the legal support/warrant to set up a sting on a Congressman?

The Speech or Debate Clause is a clause in the United States Constitution (Article I, Section 6, Clause 1). The clause states that members of both Houses of Congress "shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony, and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their attendance at the Session of their Respective Houses, and in going to and from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place." The intended purpose is to prevent a U.S. President or other officials of the executive branch from having members arrested on a pretext to prevent them from voting a certain way or otherwise taking actions with which the president might disagree. It also protects members from civil suits related to their official duties. Even when a sitting congressman tried to publicize the Top Secret Pentagon papers, smuggled a copy into his office and tried to read them into the congressional record...THAT was considered privileged information/work product. When the FBI raided William Jefferson D-Louisiana office to get proof he had been selling influence, hiding money, was involved in corruption in africa as well as here in the USA...ALL of the damning evidence was forced to be returned, all copies as well and banned from use in prosecutions. Contents of a phone are the same as copies on paper.

Easy to find an activist judge to rubber stamp anything. They can indict a ham sandwich, especially a Republican ham sandwich. Then they head to the kangaroo court of DC where the jury pool is all radical Democrats. This is scary. The only hope we have is that the Supreme Court steps in quickly and stops this madness before people start voting with their bullets.

On the third day of conflict between Israel and the Islamic Jihad, the militant group announced an Egyptian-brokered truce would begin at 20:30 GMT on August 7th, Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid's office confirmed the ceasefire. A senior Arab official has informed me that the ceasefire was confirmed by the Islamic Jihad after a 45-minute phone call between a senior Egyptian intelligence officer and his Iranian counterpart. “The Iranian side wanted the truce to happen as fast as possible” What the source claims does not seem to contradict what has happened on the ground in Gaza.

Merrick Garland should have recused himself from anything pertaining to former President Donald Trump. Period, full stop. Think about it. President Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland for the United States Supreme Court in 2016. With the presidential election looming that coming November, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell halted the nomination and refused to allow it to even go to the Judiciary Committee, let alone to the floor of the Senate for a confirmation vote. This immediately made Garland a major issue in the 2016 presidential campaign.

For liberal America, it’s time to pop open the champagne bottles. Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation raided Donald Trump’s residence at Mar-a-Lago this evening. Spencer wrote up the “siege” that’s taken place in Florida. FBI agents arrived unannounced and broke into the safe on the property. It was reportedly empty. The former president was not in the state; he’s in Trump Tower now. That’s another location that could be targeted within the coming days since it’s clear that the FBI has gone off the rails to prevent a duly elected president from running for office again.
Gov. Abbott’s idea to bus illegal migrants

Back in April, Texas's Republican governor, Greg Abbott, pledged to bus migrants who had entered Texas illegally to Washington, D.C. on a voluntary basis. It was laughed at in the press and among Democrats as a "publicity stunt" at the time. But the governor was dead serious, and kept that promise. Leadership is contagious, and Abbott was soon joined by Arizona's Gov. Douglas Ducey. For months, the states of Texas and Arizona have been sending charter buses of illegal border crossers being let in by Joe Biden's open borders policy to Washington, D.C.'s Union Station, near the Capitol building and now to New York City, led by Mayor Eric Adams,

Everyone senses that the American economy under Joe Biden is in a rut. Inflation is at a 40-year high. Energy prices are skyrocketing. The prices of all goods and services going up. Meanwhile, the administration does little to alleviate these regular everyday problems. This is by design. Since the Industrial Revolution there have been two approaches to economics. One, sometimes called laissez-faire, is really a decentralized form of economic organization and productivity in which individuals, civil society, and private organizations have broad freedom to act as they see fit.

Just how bad is the Biden administration and Democrat Congress's grossly misnamed "Inflation Reduction Act" of 2022? The Wall Street Journal has a shocking lead editorial titled "The IRS is About to Go Beast Mode" about the particulars of its $80 billion expansion of the IRS, which is six times the size of the tax agency's current $12.6 billion budget: The $80 billion is more than six times the current annual IRS budget of $12.6 billion. The money will be ladled out over nine years and comes with few strings attached. The main Democratic command is for the tax agency to bring the hammer down on taxpayers.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D. WV) continues to deserve credit, along with Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D. AZ), for holding firm on the filibuster. Without them, the Democrat wish list, including packing the Supreme Court, would have been met a year ago. However, after blocking the economically destructive “Build Back Better” bill, Manchin suddenly collapsed and agreed to a $739 billion bill that includes climate change garbage and increased corporate taxes. This deal is so bad that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R. SC), who’s reverted to his old, pre-Kavanaugh ways of putting collegiality ahead of America, strongly castigated Manchin.

Marinated in modern academia, which hates America, he simply doesn’t get it.

The Labor Department released the inflation report Wednesday and while any fair-minded person can tell the economy is far from looking up, President Joe Biden has well and truly embraced Orwellian dystopian doublethink and, instead of saying “2+2=5,” declared 8.5 equals zero.
