Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania — House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy, the would-be Speaker of the House should the GOP retake the majority as most expect in November’s midterm elections, exclusively previewed the GOP’s forthcoming “Commitment to America” for Breitbart News here in Western Pennsylvania on Thursday evening ahead of the launch on Friday morning. “We’re going to roll it tomorrow on Friday in Washington—Washington County, not Washington, DC, where the real Americans are,” McCarthy said. “What it is is it is a plan to put America back on the right track. It is a Commitment to America where for the last year and a half all the Republican members have been in different

Ohhh Kevin McCain will roll out a redux of Newt Gingrich's Contract With America. The left jumped on it as Contract On America. This will really be a Commitment to deep State Progressivism if Mitch has anything to do with it. This will not be a rebirth of the TEA Party and it won't be a MAGA endorsing plan, it will be Deep State Black Royalty and the Global Illuminatti along with the Khazarian Mafia and The Vatican, Rothchilds, and Roosevelts and The clan of Gates, Obama, Clinton, Schumer, Pelosi, McConnell, Rove, Cheney, and the regular RINO repuks calling the shots. Don't get swindled. Don't get fooled.

Insanity: Doing the same thing and expecting different results. AKA: Republican Derangement Syndrome. As long as MAGA thinks the Republican Party is going to change or that we can change it……….this nightmare continues. New Party Now!

Promises promises. Talk is cheap, when I see Republicans actually do something, like getting rid of McConnell as a first step, then stop caving in and going along to get along with the Dems, getting tough and growing a spine then maybe the hope things will change will become an actuallity. Do what the voters elected you to do, and always but always put America first. Get the knee the Dems have on your necks and stand up to MAGA

Sounds like this is Kevin’s I wanna be Speaker plan. Although it does sound good, rolling this out a few weeks before the election seems suspect. Where have you been the last two years?? Americans are suffering and what we need is to know that the the feckless fools we send to Washington mist be tough, determined and ready to take the fight to these lawless anti-American democrats who are destroying the country. We want and deserve better representation. If Kevin and his merry band of Pubbies want to make a difference in the lives of their constituents, we need warriors who understand the urgency of this moment in history, know their role in the fight, and are willing to take on the media and never give an inch to this illegal cabal. Get serious, get out there, and never give an inch on the policies that will make this country great again. We cannot afford to trust you. It is you who must convince we the people that you have the right way, the best way, and that you will not cave when the going gets tough. Words are cheap and now more than ever before we need action, we deserve action and if you cannot deliver real results, don’t waste your time on empty political promises. Make this country great again and you will receive the support you need. Betray us one more time, become lazy and apathetic, fearful of the media and democrats and it will be the quickest rejection in the history of politics. We have waited for the cavalry to come riding to the rescue. You’d better be prepared to draw your sword and fight.

Does anyone really believe that Kevin McCarthy will keep any of these weak promises if and when the republicans win the House? Anyone? McCarthy is a traitor, a corrupt ally of the Communist Death Democrats and will betray our Republic and We, The People if he is elected Speaker of the House. Any republican who is elected to the House and votes for McCarthy is also committing an act of Treason. It cannot be business as usual for the Republicans any longer. We have run out of time regarding saving our Republic. McCarthy must be removed.

I appreciate McCarthy's new commitment for the future, but I wonder why these commitments have not been followed in the past. The Republicans have advanced open borders and failed to uphold immigration law, haven't seen a spending bill they won't vote for, and I see many of them threatening Russia with nuclear weapons, and supporting a war in Ukraine. The Republicans are all in for expanding NATO. Who is NATO? It is us. We provide all the weapons, all the money.

Oh, great. The Pubbies have obviously huddled with Gingrich and are about to roll out a Contract with America sequel, Part 2. They figure that whatever worked before will certainly work again. This is EXACTLY what's wrong with the Pubbie mindset. Times have changed in so many ways and they apparently lack the skill, competence and finesse to come up with something NEW.

DC is the Swamp and Repub/Dem contentions are now nothing but dog-and-pony-show theatre - virtually all are _owned_... bought, paid for, blackmailed - controlled. Yours and my UniParty! The owners of our erstwhile "public servants" have been waging war against the idea and very foundations of our Constitutional Republic for years - only now are they so bold and confident of victory that they hardly bother to conceal themselves. War. On the middle class - in every way shape and form. Now if you want peace (and the freedom to pursue life liberty and happiness), then you and those around you had best prepare for war. And make it quick. Our enemies have quite the head start and they are playing for keeps.

Sweet tea, chicken fried steak, and a ride around the cornfield in a picker will be the photo ops. It reminds me of Lamar Alexander, a quite wealthy man at the time, riding around in his old pickup truck wearing his red and black chamois shirt speaking the lingo with the down country folk. He got elected governor on that. They all deserve the justice they will one day receive.

I’m not a Kevin McCarthy fan but these would have been empty words indeed with the House, Senate and WH all in the hands of a Leftist cabal intent on destroying the country. They are still pretty ambitious unless they win a veto proof majority in the Senate so let’s be real. Americans are not in the mood to hear about the fruited plains with an American flag blowing in the breeze. Nor are we any longer impressed with Congressional hearings where The Trey Gowdys of the world make morally righteous speeches for the cameras then attend the next cocktail party with the Democrats. This is it. Put Up or Shut Up.

Really, Kevin? "...we’re going to stop this runaway spending and curb that inflation." Your special interests (and families) grabbed enough now? To stop runaway spending (eliminating that standard waste, fraud and abuse) one would have to eliminate half the Federal budget and half the Federal government. That may be a bit of hyperbole, but not much. And who's paying for those 200,000 new cops you're promsing? Who will they work for? The Feds? Going to force localities to spend your money? This is boob bait, as is much of this exercise. Let's see an austere balanced budget for FY24 from our Republican majority...and let's see Joe veto it.

Tallahassee, Fla. - Gov. Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency for all of Florida on Saturday as Tropical Storm Ian gains strength over the Caribbean and is forecast to become a major hurricane within days as it tracks toward the state. DeSantis had initially issued the emergency order for two dozen counties on Friday. But he expanded the warning to the entire state, urging residents to prepare for a storm that could lash large swaths of Florida. “This storm has the potential to strengthen into a major hurricane and we encourage all Floridians to make their preparations,” DeSantis said in a statement. “We are coordinating with

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern called for more “collective” action in her address to the U.N. General Assembly on Friday, especially on the issues of climate change, nuclear non-proliferation, pandemic response, and opposing wars of aggression such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Ardern’s authoritarian impulses were on display in her call for tighter regulations on Internet speech, although she insisted she values free speech and merely wishes to cleanse “disinformation” from international discourse. Ardern portrayed the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, which New Zealand addressed with some of the heaviest lockdowns to be found outside of communist China

In a major victory for members of the NYPD’s largest police union, a judge ruled Friday cops who were fired for not getting vaccinated against the coronavirus have to be reinstated. In the stunning decision, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Lyle Frank wrote that the city’s vaccine mandate on the Police Benevolent Association was invalid “to the extent it has been used to impose a new condition of employment” on the union. The mandate was also invalid because it issued enforcement beyond “monetary sanctions” prescribed in the law, Frank wrote — ordering that all PBA members put on leave or canned be reinstated.

I don’t believe we have covered the story of Cayler Ellingson, the 18-year-old North Dakota boy who was murdered by 41-year-old Shannon Brandt. Why did the murder happen? Brandt says he ran Ellingson down with his car following a “political argument” because he thought Ellingson was part of a “Republican extremist group.” Where might he have gotten that idea? From the President of the United States. So far no details of whatever conversation Ellingson might have had with the much-older Brandt are known, but apparently it didn’t take much for Brandt to conclude that he was dealing with a “Republican extremist.” Not surprisingly, local authorities say there is no evidence

In spite of Joe Biden’s continued delusional pronouncements that “the economy is just fine, man,” most Americans are feeling the detrimental effects of his economic policies with every purchase from the gas pump to the grocery store and beyond. Each month since the 1970s, economists have used the newly released and updated Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS) data to quantify the economic health of the country. To do so, they add the current U.S. unemployment rate, which is a semi-stagnant 3.7%, to August’s worse-than-expected rate of U.S. inflation, which is a harsh 8.26%. Originally coined by intellectual powerhouse and policy economist Arthur M. Okun in the 1970s as the “discomfort index,”

Is Joe Biden President? That’s the question to ask after staffers walked back Biden’s latest remarks on Taiwan. During his rather uneven “60 Minutes” interview with Scott Pelley last weekend, Biden firmly and clearly announced that the United States would defend Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion. This was a dramatic statement, and a substantial shift from America’s traditional policy of “strategic ambiguity” on Taiwan, in which our response to Chinese saber-rattling over the island nation was essentially “fool around and find out.” Biden was not at all ambiguous: If China went to war with Taiwan, it would be war with the United States and its allies. That departure made some sense.

An Arizona judge ruled Friday that the state can enforce a near-total ban on abortion that had been blocked for nearly five decades. The 1901 law bans all abortions, except in cases in which the mother’s life is in jeopardy. The ruling by Pima County Superior Court judge Kellie Johnson comes in response to a request from state attorney general Mark Brnovich to lift the long-standing injunction that prevented the law from taking effect. Johnson wrote that a judgement and injunction signed in 1973 blocking the law, ARS 13-3603, “no longer has any prospective application.”

Tapper’s star is rising as CNN’s new boss Chris Licht has been cleaning house and pushing a more middle-of-the-road approach, moving away from punditry that focused on criticizing the Trump administration and conservatives to boost ratings. “Tapper is trying to survive,” said a media source. “He’s kowtowing to his bosses.” “He’s very ambitious” and “very hard-working” with a “healthy ego,” added another source who had once worked

He was quickly escorted off the court after the fire was put out by officials. The protest temporarily halted the singles match between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Diego Schwartzman. He reportedly ran onto the court after Tsitsipas won the first set and set his arm on fire before security grabbed him. After officials determined the fire did not alter the court, the match resumed

Criminal charges will probably not be warranted in the investigation into Republican representative Matt Gaetz’s alleged sex-trafficking scandal, prosecutors have advised the Justice Department. Senior department officials have not confirmed whether the lawmaker will be charged, but the prosecutors claim that a conviction is unlikely to result from the probe, according to the Washington Post. The department typically heeds such recommendations, they said. The prosecutors said the case was undermined by a lack of credibility demonstrated by two key witnesses against Gaetz, including the 17-year-old girl whom Gaetz was alleged to have had a sexual relationship with.

Republicans and Democrats are split on whether hard work results in more financial gain and economic advancement in the U.S. economy, according to a poll from the Wall Street Journal. About 85 percent of Republicans agree that hard work can get anyone ahead, while just 53 percent of Democrats believe that, the poll shows. The two political parties also disagree about how great America is, with more than nine in 10 Republicans agreeing that “America is the greatest country in the world,” while only 61 percent of Democrats feel that way. About 34 percent of Republicans say their generation will do better than the one before, compared to 55 percent of Democrats.
