Mitt Romney Issues Complete and Total
Endorsement of Katie Britt as Vice Presidential Pick

Original Article

Retiring Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) endorsed Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) for vice president Sunday, contending the “media overreaction” she received following her highly scrutinized and oddly delivered State of the Union rebuttal “tells us who liberals most fear as VP nominee.” The failed 2012 Republican presidential nominee took to X to defend Britt following a wave of criticism over her rebuttal, which was described by some as “cringe.” In a good way, the delivery was over-the-top, out of character—Biden’s, of course. Katie Britt’s too. The media overreaction to hers not his tells us who liberals most fear as VP nominee.

Or, knowing how much Trump hates him, he may be trying to destroy the better candidate so another deepstate hack can get in. Glad I dont have to decide.

That has the "Clinton Endorsement Kiss of Death" written all over it. Mitt Romney and his RINO running mate, Paul Ryan embarrassed the GOP and now Mitt's trying to play the "kingmaker?" Ha! Fat chance, Moroni.

Folks, she is actually a good conservative, and got in on Trump's endorsement. She is MAGA. Romney knows anything he says is the touch of death, and he probably is doing this on purpose to sabotage her future. And from reading all the comments here, it's sadly working...

He announced this decision a couple of weeks back and has been lining up endorsements and touring the state.James sat down with the Detroit News to answer some questions about what he would like to do as governor, and also what Donald Trump will announce this Tuesday when he is in Michigan. Of course, the question that was asked was something I mentioned could happen in an article a couple of weeks ago, when James first announced he was running.

Rep. Eric Swalwell has promised to strip federal immigration officers of driving privileges if they wear masks while working in California, and that pledge has set off a legal and political fight. His comments came as he runs for governor and as California navigates a state law aimed at unmasking ICE agents, a move the federal government calls unconstitutional. The debate now centers on federal supremacy, public safety, and whether state leaders are playing political theater at the expense of law enforcement and immigrants alike.

At one time in my life, I was an operating-room nurse, both participating in and witnessing the things that just about every person on earth can’t stand to think about. So, I can say with some authority that splinters in particularly sensitive areas of the body––often the kind that happen when sitting on a fence––can cause significant discomfort. And removing them requires a recovery period that involves quite a bit of post-op pain. Metaphorically speaking, VP JD Vance has been sitting for quite a while on a splintery fence, trying to camouflage his dislike of Jews and Israel with fancified language, while at the same time,

Until the past 24 hours, Nicolás Maduro Moros and other Venezuelan high-ranking individuals in the Maduro regime ran the Cartel of the Suns (Cartel de los Soles). Now that the U.S. has penetrated Venezuela’s defenses to capture and arrest Maduro, things have changed. Maduro and his regime had corrupted the institutions of that country, including its military, its intelligence apparatus, its legislature, and its judiciary, all to aid his cartel’s massive criminal operations. The Cartel de los Soles originated in Venezuela, and has been involved in the illicit drug trade, human smuggling and trafficking, extortion, sexual exploitation of women and children, and money laundering, along with other criminal activities.

Christmas week was rather a slow week, with the big news being the further unraveling of the corruption in Minnesota, Washington state, California, and other Democrat redoubts. But like George Washington crossing the Delaware to beat the Hessians as they rested on Christmas, the U.S. pulled off an incredible military operation capturing Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro in his pajamas and bringing him back here to answer to criminal charges. The Venezuelan military was largely on Christmas leave and Maduro’s international protectors --- the Chinese and Russian forces in Venezuela -- were caught flatfooted, diminishing their credibility in the Western Hemisphere. The impact of this operation was enormous.
