‘Continually Fail’: GOP To End Debate
Season In The Arms Of CNN, Disney Media

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 12/14/2023 9:40:13 PM

The once-lofty dreams for GOP primary debates have ultimately ended with the party’s retreat into the arms of corporate media companies that the electorate views as inherently hostile, and no decision maker, from the campaigns themselves to the Republican National Committee (RNC), wants to take credit. The Daily Caller talked to the RNC, the DeSantis campaign, the Ramaswamy campaign and CNN, and reached out to the Haley campaign. No one can explain how RNC Temporary Committee on Presidential Debates David Bossie’s 2022 promise to center debates around independent and conservative media ended up with the RNC in full retreat and candidates flocking to CNN and Disney-owned ABC on the eve of

The RNC is in disarray and confusion as the result of its SOPs not to serve its constituents. After keeping a tight grip on the first round of elimination candidate debates with bench-marks for money raised, the number of doners in a number of states, and participation in RNC events only; the Party is allowing candidates to debate in any forum they wish. The catalyst was the Iowa Thanksgiving Family Forum. At first the RNC nixed participation, but later relented. CNN and the rest of the enemedia took notice. CNN stepped in it big time with their announcement. They failed to notify the college they had mentioned as the location, and they had also never contacted the RNC although they inferred that in their announcement. Typical, and should not be surprising to anyone. CNN doesn't have a bad excuse. After the "exception" for the Iowa forum they rightly expected the RNC to lift their restriction, which indeed happened. There are those that are not happy with the RNC lifting the rule and allowing candidates to appear on CNN or any enemedia outlet. However, now it is up to the candidates. At some point any Republican running for President has to deal with Fake News. They have a hard act to live up to. Can any one of them enter into that jungle and subdue the jackals like our Lion? MAGA REVENGE - TRUMP 2024

If you take the list of issues that Republican voters care about ranked most to least, the questions will be coming from "care about the least" group.

So, the RNC is in full retreat and candidates are flocking to CNN and Disney-owned ABC on the eve of the first primary states. Fleecing the flock is more like it. John Nance Garner was right about the place in history of the VP position. Daily Caller is right about the rest of the presidential candidate slate.

Republicans have ruined this country. I look at the leadership of this party, and I see them voting to renew FISA, and fund Ukraine. We have a communist country with the Stasi state police, because the Republicans never voted against any of it.

If the RNC continues to put cartoon characters on the debate stage, what is more appropriate than using Disney to produce it? Replace the faces with Porky Pig, Wiley Coyote, Peppermint Patty and Goofy and you have a whale of a show. Trump is our man, skip the boring little insult parties. MAGA

If the GOPe continues to choose the Globalist Uni-party and its political objective's, it will mean the end of the Republican party. Things should be so bad by then that a third party, larger than both, should emerge. I don't feel the dems or GOPe has this country's best interests in mind.

Fools. The 'debate' may go on for an hour or two, and a few people may watch it. The 3-second 'clip' that will be selected and aired on the leftist media, over, and over, and over, is that clip that most favors the Democ'RATS. Fat Boy and Nikki should just drop out, Desantis and Vivek should know better than give the Media any chance to smear them.

Congress is taking action to block the Pentagon from using taxpayer dollars to fund risky animal coronavirus research in Wuhan, China. A provision within the fiscal year 2024 defense authorization bill, which passed the House and Senate this week, prohibits the Pentagon from funding experiments at the Wuhan Institute of Virology - which is at the center of the COVID-19 lab-leak theory. Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, who included the measure in the NDAA, told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview this week that American dollars 'have been diverted in the past to institutions in communist China.'

The Constitution created a chief executive who was supposed to have very few powers. His remit was foreign policy. Individual states weren’t allowed to deal directly with foreign powers, so that was left to the President. No police power exists in the Constitution, so disputes between the states would be dealt with by the Courts. The powers of the Congress were originally limited to a series of specific acts beginning with “To borrow money…” in Article I, Section 8. This didn’t leave a lot of room for a pen and a phone. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court decided to ignore that original meaning in 1936, when it ruled

President Joe Biden’s border chief has a deal for the GOP: He will carefully cap illegal migration at one million a year if the GOP approves $61 billion for war in Ukraine, according to press reports. The offer would double pre-2021 immigration numbers, but it is a “good faith offer,” said one of the four GOP negotiators told reporters.“We’re at 11,000” illegal migrants per day or roughly 4 million migrants in a year, Sen. Thom Tillis told CBS on December 13, adding: We’ve seen what the White House has sent over … We’ve got to get somewhere closer to … 2,000 [migrants] a day [or 700,000 a year],

The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas fired rockets toward Jerusalem on Friday evening, as both Jews and Muslims were participating in prayers, endangering the Dome of the Rock, the Western Wall, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The rockets were intercepted and disabled by Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system, whose trails could be seen across the evening sky. This is astounding. Hamas fired rockets over the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, the third holiest site in the world for Muslims.

The Senate has pushed off its holiday recess to work on a border security and foreign aid package in what could be a breakthrough on immigration policy - that has not been dealt with by Congress in decades. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said the talks had made 'good progress' on Thursday on a package that would include money for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan and would bolster border security measures in exchange. One idea under consideration is to allow Homeland Security officials to stop migrants from applying for asylum at the southern border if the total number of crossings on a day exceeds 5,000.

Rudy Giuliani faces financial ruin after a court ordered him to pay an astonishing $148 million for defaming two Georgia election workers he accused of trying to steal the 2020 election for Joe Biden. The bombshell verdict dealt a catastrophic blow to the 79-year-old former New York mayor and was vindication for election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, who said his allegations caused a flood of threats that made their lives hell. The mother-daughter duo said Giuliani's lies that they engaged in ballot fraud to rig the election against Donald Trump made them scared to leave their homes and unable to get jobs.

Chicago spent nearly $1million to build a migrant camp on a toxic site, as the city continues to struggle with a massive surge of asylum seekers, with officials now impounding incoming buses. Official records seen by ABC 7 show the city spent more than $985,000 on the shuttered migrant camp at a Brighton Park lot - despite warnings that the site was not safe and outrage by locals, including a lawsuit. The nearly $1million bill is not much compared to the total expected cost of the camp, which was mostly financed by the state government under a $125million contract with a private contractor.

Hunter Biden has told friends that he might have to flee the country if Donald Trump is reelected, after already enduring months of deeply personal political attacks and mounting legal woes. Republicans have put him front and center of their efforts to say his father acted corruptly when he was vice president. And he could face almost 20 years in prison if convicted of three felony and six misdemeanor charges brought last week. The result is an 81-year-old father desperately worried about the welfare of a son who has battled drink and drugs, and a son who fears more attacks if Trump wins in 2024.

On the other hand, everybody who flies Southwest will be picking up the tab for the otherwise empty seat Southwest couldn’t fill because a passenger with an exceptional appetite decided to fly on their aircraft.
