“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”
“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Past time for Pelosi and McConnell to retire.
“Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), the former House speaker, was hospitalized after “sustaining an injury during an official engagement” while traveling with a congressional delegation to Luxembourg, her spokesman said Friday.
The spokesperson said that she is currently being evaluated in the hospital and is “currently receiving excellent treatment” and continues to work.
The details about the injury or how she sustained it were not provided in the statement.
Pelosi, 84, said through her spokesman that she regrets not being able to attend World War II- and veterans-related events in Luxembourg, a country that borders Germany, Belgium, and France.”

⚠️HUGE – Virginia can no longer afford to be a Sanctuary State
Plans to cooperate with ICE and Mass Deportations
“Governor Glenn Youngkin’s plans to end sanctuary cities in Virginia. He announced the measure as part of his state budget proposal. It would require local agencies to cooperate with ICE or Immigration and Customs Enforcement.”
“My no sanctuary city’s proposal says something very simple.Local law enforcement and local jails shall recognize and respect ICE detainers. Now the governor’s proposal would also require local authorities to notify ICE 48 hours before an undocumented person who commits a crime is released.”
“His plan would also withhold funding from so called sanctuary cities.”

Too bad Youngkin can’t run again. As a Virginian, I’m very happy with his govenorship.
IMO that’s what’s wrong with term limits. Sometimes there isn’t anybody good enough to succeed the one who is timed out.
Its difficult to believe there isn’t some one else “as good as” Youngkin, to replace him.
And, the blame for that rests squarely on the State Republican Party Executive committee.
Because “the buck stops there” and because a part of party operations is recruiting, vetting and grooming candidates, starting with schoolbboards, and city councils and moving “up” as they gain experience.
A well run State Party operation should have numerous good, experienced and viable candidates ready to slot
in to Youngkins place, as the NEXT Governor.
Winsome Sears?
Lt. Governor Winsome Sears would be a great replacement.
How soon we all forget.
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3729873-virginias-gop-lt-governor-wont-back-trump-in-2024-i-just-couldnt/
“Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears (R) said on Thursday that she would not support former President Trump running again for the White House if he declares his candidacy, as he is expected to do next week.
Sears told Fox News’s Neil Cavuto that Trump had numerous accomplishments with the economy and with public safety, but she said voters showed in the midterm elections that they want the Republican Party to have a different leader.
“I could not support him. I just couldn’t,” she said.
Republicans were hoping for a red wave to lead the party to significant gains in the House and Senate in the midterms, but Democrats outperformed the polls in many races.
The GOP appears likely to win control of the House, but the margin will be much narrower than expected. Which party will control the Senate is uncertain.
Many Trump-backed candidates in key House, Senate and gubernatorial races have either lost or are in significant jeopardy of losing, and several Republican strategists and aides blamed Trump for the losses in what looked like winnable races.
“A true leader understands when they have become a liability,” Sears said. “A true leader understands that it’s time to step off the stage, and the voters have given us that very clear message.”
She’d still be better than a Democrat governor! Va already has a Dem-controlled House.
Perhaps she would be better. But I just do not want her anointed to the Next Great Replacement because she took a photo of her carry a great big gun as though we are still dumb enough to fall for such propaganda.
Sears, in no time, threw PDJT under the bus. That tells me that she is disloyal and cannot read the MAGA tea leaves. She has no political instincts other than to follow what her RINO handlers tell her.
If VA cannot come up with a real MAGA loyalist then I guess, they get Fairweather Sears.
Not so fast, OurLastStand:
In a sign that Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears is trying to avoid the same fate that took down Rep. Bob Good, she is publicly supporting Donald Trump’s bid for president after previously expressing doubts about his candidacy.
https://www.virginiascope.com/sears-is-changing-her-tune-on-trump-but-maga-nation-has-not-forgotten/
Yeah, she changed her mind after getting blowback from her initial backstabbing puffery.
Did you notice that PDJT did not invite her to any of his rallies? I never saw him invite her up onstage nor giver her a shout out.
So good for her that she demonstrated her inability to read the MAGA tea leaves.
If the best that VA has is her then so be it: Fairweather Friend Winsome Sears.
Exactly. And I was as supporter of her (as a convention delegate and monetarily). When she threw PDJT under the bus she was throwing her political future under it, too. Not sure who will rise to be the Republican nominee, but he or she better be MAGA, capable, and have support (money). He or she will be going up against “I was a CIA case officer” Spanberger. (She loves that line.) But once CIA, always CIA. She is shape shifter, always telling you what you want to hear. And she has a huge war chest. She will be very, very tough to beat.

You’re right, Dutch. The ‘Party’ has been a Big disappointment over the recent years.
Term limits are limits on the power of the voters. We should be the ones who decide that it is time for an officeholder to go.
Presidents should be term limited because they have the ultimate power of the executive. They can decide how, when, where, and with what provisions to deploy the military. They can veto legislation. They can regulate. They have the power to delegate how the government contracts.
No single congressman or senator can do that.
“Term limits are limits on the power of the voters. We should be the ones who decide that it is time for an officeholder to go.”
Good one, Sherri. So many are desperate and jump on the Term Limits bandwagon not understanding this simple fact.
Supposed to be 3 co-equal branches,..but only one (POTUS) is term limited, whereas the other two, one (Judicial) specifically has lifetime appointmenrmts, and the other (Legislative) might as well have.
No, repeal the term limit obmn POTUS, and focus on fixing our elections system, so that elections actually reflect the will of the voters, and there will be no need for term limits.
Your comment is filled with unsupported suppositions.
Elections are accurate.
People drawn to politics are of good character
Voters have more sense than a concrete fence post.
Voters are qualified to vote.
etc.
How many forever politicians have been good for us?
Pelosi?
McConnell?
Robert Byrd

Power + corruption X years = destroyed USA
We lost the state of Maine because of term limits..
Fmr. Gov. Paul LePage was very popular, and certainly would have won again and he was not term limited out.
Now they’ve got this low IQ Communist Troll Janet Mills and the state has been on the fast track downhill ever since.
It all could have been avoided if they could have kept Mr.LePage there.
For these reasons, I’ve never been a fan of term limits because we already have term limits, it’s called vote them out of office.
People never seem to look at the other side of the coin, we’re being deprived of some very good people that would have won, if not for term limits.
It HAS to START AT HOME!
This is good news as Virginia has been overrun for decades with illegals, and that is bad news for national security no matter how you look at it. It has to end.
Time for Repatriation. Go fly those flags of yours at home.
Great move. Not a Virginian, just an observer.
A quick search shows Virginia uses electronic vote counting machines. Not sure if they are dominion, smartmatic or what. These machines were developed and used to steal elections in central and South America. They are easily hacked, can flip and weigh votes.
While he may have been a good governor, maybe one who recognizes the need for improved election integrity is needed.
Youngkin cleaned up voter rolls and won in court to do it!
I was an election officer. The machine is a scanner. Counts the votes and then stores the ballot in the machine. The precinct chief matches the voters given a ballot against the ballots counted. Mine did it every hour. If there wasn’t a match then the discrepancy was chased down by the chief or the assistant chief. I didn’t see any indication that these machines were connected to the Internet (and I was looking!).
So they gave all their money to the illegals and now want to rejoin the other smart stakes and regain their loss.
Russia Launches Massive Attack On Ukrainian “Critical Fuel & Energy Infrastructure” | ZeroHedge
Russia launched a massive drone and missile strike against Ukraine on Friday in retaliation for Kyiv’s recent use of the US-supplied Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) against a Russian military base.
ABC News quoted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who said Russia launched 93 missiles and nearly 200 drones targeting the country’s energy infrastructure. This was one of the largest bombardments against Ukraine’s energy sector since the invasion began almost three years ago.
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russia-launches-massive-attack-critical-fuel-energy-infrastructure-ukraine
So Russia sent 293 missiles and drones and Ukraine intercepted 93. You would think he would be ready to talk about peace, but Nooo.
”reckless assaults, renewing his request to the international community for intervention and more support for Ukraine.”
“A strong reaction from the world is needed: a massive strike – a massive reaction. This is the only way to stop terror,” Zelenskyy said.
A perfect “massive strike/massive reaction” would be the western world all cutting him off and saying “NO MORE MONEY/WEAPONS/TROOPS/EQUIPMENT/ASSISTANCE” for any reason. Cut him off completely and he’ll have no other choice but to talk about peace. A third-rate comedian thinking he can run a country in peacetime, let alone wartime, especially against an adversary like Russia, is just plain stupid. Good grief, Charlie Brown!
Without American “help”, he could have become a decent president, balancing respect for Russian culture and nationalistic tendencies.
Don’t believe anything elenski or the ukie media says
And of course the strong reaction must be augmented by sending Z more money.
Just a minor detail … but … it is being left out of “media reports” that the Ukraine launched another ATCMS strike into Russia. This was a retaliatory strike.

“House Approves New Judges For Federal Courts, Biden Considers Veto”
Excerpts:
House Speaker Mike Johnson defended the bill and pointed to a 30% increase in federal caseloads since the last judiciary expansion, Reuters said. Johnson emphasized the need for more judges to ensure timely and effective justice.
“This should not be a political issue – it should be about prioritizing the needs of the American people and ensuring the courts are able to deliver fair, impartial, and timely justice,” Johnson said in a statement.
https://dailycallernewsfoundation.org/2024/12/12/house-approves-new-judges-for-federal-courts-biden-considers-veto/
A bunch of new judges needed to handle the new cases coming up from the ‘actions’ of the 1500 recently pardoned by brandon.
Why are more judges needed for people who had sentences commuted or who were pardoned???
Who is bringing new cases unrelated to those related to the pardons or commuted sentences?? Somebody has to start a prosecution before there is discussions of a sufficient number of judges to try any cases.
I think the sentiment is that a number of these people will re-offend.
And the new cases that will be filed after 1/20/25.
Haven’t seen much fair, impartial, or timely justice.

“Military Confirms Drones Spotted Over U.S. Air Base in Germany”
Excerpts:
The Gateway Pundit reported that the Biden White House is downplaying reports of unauthorized drone activity.
On Thursday, National Security Council spokesman John Kirby categorically denied any confirmed over military installations in New Jersey. His statement, however, directly contradicts statements from military officials at New Jersey’s Picatinny Arsenal and Naval Weapons Station Earle, both of which have confirmed unauthorized drone breaches in recent weeks.
A security source told Reuters that German authorities had not traced the operators of the drones, but had ruled out the possibility that the drones were operated by amateurs.
The drone sightings over Ramstein were first reported by German news magazine Spiegel, which said a report by German security authorities had flagged a number of unexplained drone sightings over the base in the evening hours of Dec. 3 and 4.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/military-confirms-drones-spotted-u-s-air-base/
New drone overflights alarm Germany.
Since the end of November, suspicious drone flights have apparently been detected over industrial plants and over the US base in Ramstein. The authorities are investigating, but have so far been largely powerless.
The drones are targeted at: the ChemCoast Park industrial park, nuclear power plant, LNG terminal, locks and the Kiel Canal.
According to security experts, they were military drones.
German media.
As the people flying them have not come forward and admitted it, shoot them down. There is no reason for their silence other than malfeasance.
order of incompetence: 1. Moron. 2. Imbecile. 3. Idiot. 4. John Kirby.
I’m beginning to think the drones are placed purposely and a military coup will start with Trump’s inauguration. I have nothing to back that up except a gut feeling something is going to go down to remove Trump from the presidency.
I share your fear. There is no way the govt doesn’t know what’s going on.
What government, as far as I know we don’t have one right now. It’s everyone for yourself in the swamp and cya.
Well, you got yer WW3! or Project Blue Beam(?) or the next disease X’s ( this time hemorrhagic? ) plus false flag events, targeting invaders or a subset minority group and blamed on whitey to foment the race riots Charlie Manson predicted so long ago.
Pick one or more in combination and yeah. Something’s gonna “go down”. To what degree they become successful ( or not ) is the only thing we don’t really know.
I don’t ‘get’ the statement from our leaders that these are “manned” aircraft…. I watched those videos… they really do think we are dumb.
I would certainly think drones launched from an airbase would then be spotted over that airbase. Isn’t water wet?

Seen my God answer many of my prayers through the decades, praise His glorious name through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Yes, I not only believe, I KNOW.
Thats the thing about miracles, when you see the Red Sea parted, for example how can you doubt the existence of God?
And yes, I know the story, and how despite seeing many such miracles, SOME of the jews being led by Moses still didn’t know,…but as for me?
I see miracles all around me, every day, and in the rise of PDJT, I see a whole series of occurances so improbable, that I can only ascribe them as miracles on a par with thise Moses performed.
So, yes I have faith, and BELIEVE, but I also KNOW, from the miracles I have experienced first hand in my life, and those I have observed.
Amen. Praise Be!

Off Leash update 13 Dec Iran
The head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp (IRGC), Maj. Gen. Hossein Salami, offered state media some comments on the rapid upheaval that ousted Pres. Assad last week. Salami claimed the IRGC fought with Assad until the end – “the last person who left the battlefield was an IRGC soldier” – but is now adjusting to the new geopolitical “realities” of post-Assad Syria.
That seems like a pointed message to the rebels the IRGC previously helped Assad assault – those who now control Syria – that Iran is accepting their victory and abandoning Assad.
Syria Rebels raiding ex-Pres. Assad’s palace discovered Borat among the deposed dictator’s DVDs. I hope Sacha Baron Cohen autographed that copy with the same dedication he offered Assad in a 2012 press conference: “my dear friend and doubles-tennis partner, President Assad of Syria.”
[Cohen was in character as Gen. Aladeen of The Dictator, and went on to praise the United Nations for its inaction in Syria with biting satire.]
The NYT reported that U.S. intelligence is carefully reevaluating its designation of the group leading the rebellion – Hayat Tahrir al Sham (HTS) – as a “terrorist organization.”
HTS’s precursors and current leaders earned the designation on merit when they aligned with Al Qaeda and Islamic State, but it now claims to have severed ties with terrorists and is paying much lip service to governance. Repealing the designation would make it easier for the U.S. to work with Syria’s new leadership as it begins reconstruction.
Meanwhile, Israel’s military said it would stay in Syria until the establishment of “a new force” that can prevent anti-Israel militants from filling the void and using Syrian territory to attack Israel. Critics worry the Israeli presence could become permanent.
Gaza U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is still hopeful for a Israel-Hamas ceasefire “this month.” Sullivan has been meeting with Israeli officials – including Prime Minister Netanyahu – this week, and left meetings optimistic that “the surround sound of these negotiations is different today than it has been in the past.”
However, Sullivan conceded that a deal still “might not happen,” and there are no indications of a breakthrough on the sticking points that have doomed past deal proposals. Next he’ll visit Egypt and Qatar to meet with mediators to discuss Hamas’s position.
With a peace deal still elusive, Israel continued to target terrorists in Gaza. One airstrike on the refugee camp of Nuseirat in central Gaza targeted a Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader and killed over 30 people.
Ukraine Russia’s ground forces are pushing towards the Donetsk transit hub of Pokrovsk amidst “extremely fierce” fighting. They’re now within three miles (five kilometers) of the city’s outskirts.
Ukraine’s top military leader, Gen. Oleksandr Syrsky, lamented that a successful defense of Pokrovsk will require “unconventional decisions.” Syrsky didn’t elaborate on what form those decisions may take, but on two similar occasions in the past – in Kharkiv in 2022 and in Kursk earlier this year – Ukraine launched surprise offensives along new fronts to draw Russian attention and resources from a desperate defensive line elsewhere.
We’ll see if Syrsky draws on the same playbook this time. Russia also launched a new air barrage on Ukrainian infrastructure targets overnight, forcing Ukraine into yet another round of emergency power outages.
China Pres.-elect Trump invited China’s Pres. Xi Jinping to attend his inauguration in Washington on Jan. 20, 2025. Xi hasn’t publicly RSVPed yet.

“There is power in making it known that you’re not comfortable with a situation, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be this big dramatic show,” she stated. “It’s just little bits of resistance that add up, and little bits of resistance that other people will see and hopefully feel empowered to stand on those convictions as well.”

I see a white glove inspection in someone’s future.
Between Elon Musk and Donald J Trump, there might be a plan/opportunity to lease some large facility and set up a five star resturant in which staff are required to treat all guests with courtesy.
Of course, I suppose those who hate normal living would make reservations and then either not show up or act awful when they did. It’s not easy to deal with terminal adolescence.
Entry by card key, which can be canceled at any time upon rude and terminal adolescence.
There will be plenty of new people eager to replace them . . .
Time for some entrepreneur chef to open the “MAGA GRILL” near Capitol Hill.
Doesn’t PDJT own the refurbished bldg that was the post office?
That surely has a restaurant, and they can all eat there.
As Doge causes many departments to be shot down, downsized or moved to Montana, the whole “Georgetown scene” may dry up, and these idiots may be looking for work.
If she can’t serve everyone, she’s a server BTW, then QUIT!!
I used to serve all kinds of slimy lawmakers. Cheap pr!cks most of them, but I wasn’t going to lose a kush gig for treating them like they tipped.
Who would have ever thought, nine years ago, that simply the goal of closing the border, once a bipartisan choice, would result in such mass and longstanding hysteria?
I just posted that on the other thread! Out-effin-rageous! Messing with someone’s food is assault at the very least.
So, conservative NGOs or somebodies, buy the stuff for the claimed pennies on the dollar to rescue it.
Biden Admin Scrambling To Auction Off Border-Wall Sections Before Trump Takes Office
Dec 13, 2024
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/biden-admin-scrambling-auction-trump-wall-sections-trump-takes-office
“They are taking it from three stations: Nogales, Tucson, and Three Points,” said the agent. “The goal is to move all of it off the border before Christmas.”
Trump made clear during his campaign that he intends to finish construction of the border wall, making use of the materials that have remained untouched at the border since President Joe Biden took office in 2021. If the material brought to the border during his first term is sold off, it will significantly delay any progress on one of Trump’s flagship campaign promises at the border. -Daily Wire
The materials are reportedly being carted north on Interstate 19 to Pinal Airpark in Marana, Arizona, where they’re auctioned off by GovPlanet, a surplus government equipment auctioneer. Video evidence from the site shows piles of these steel bollard wall sections, listed online for as low as $5.00 starting bids in upcoming auctions.
The auction website shows that sales occurred as recently as December 4 for precisely the types of materials being pulled off the border. GovPlanet has online auctions set for Dec. 11 and Dec. 18 for more of the border wall material, which is listed on the company’s website as “32.91’ X 7.91’ Steel Bollard Wall Sections w/Grout.”
They already auctioned off all of the security equipment… absolutely DESPICABLE! And theft of taxpayer funded materials.
One could create an LLC to buy these materials and sell back at cost to cover transportation and handling after Trump is sworn back in.
Would be more resources than I’ve got to take possession myself. Could make donations to someone who could though.
You asked for it:

Lt. Gov. says Texas will buy all of it.
Absolutely sickening what Arizona has become. And we bought our retirement home there in 2016 grrrrr.
Sell it!
So where did the money go?
DNC pockets or Jim Clibourns fraudulent attempt?
Every layer and every level of government that is unresponsive and unhelpful – they are demonstrating their own uselessness and need to be removed from the “family budget” . . .
the federal
the state
the county
the city
who is answering questions and apparently DOING anything about the “drones” seen in New Jersey?
The federal entities are simply advertising their need to be vastly and massively cut back as the new administration comes in in January . . . from the FAA to the FBI and so many others!
The state, county and city “authorities” could make a really good case for supporting your local sheriff, so to speak, and eliminating the FBI!
Is this basically another “Chinese balloon” but now in the form of drones?

GEORGIA
BREAKING: Salome Zourabichvili, President of Georgia, rejects tomorrow’s Presidential elections and refuses to step down if voted out.
Zourabichvili: “The presidential elections scheduled for tomorrow planned by the illegitimate Georgian Dream are a parody…
I have a kind of legitimacy from the absolute majority of the people for relations with European structures.”
==========================
I’m here & will remain because, at this crucial time, the country needs legitimate institutions & reps, truly elected by the people.
When those relying on repression realize that elections are the only way forward, I’ll be ready to organize them for peace, justice, & a European future.
Mr President thank you for your support.
Europe is the free choice of the Georgian people, which has given no mandate to the Georgian Dream leaders to turn away!

Salome Zourabichvili Refuses to Leave Presidential Palace in Tbilisi After Term Ends on December 29
The current president of Georgia announced this decision to the foreign media outlet Radio France Internationale (RFI), which is perhaps fitting, given that she is a citizen of France rather than Georgia.
Zourabichvili’s struggle for power, after losing the elections, is entering its final stage.
She has declared that she will not voluntarily leave the presidential office, even though her term as head of state ends on December 29.
Pro-Western activists, funded by American and European organizations, have been holding protests in central Tbilisi for the past two weeks.
However, the demonstrations have significantly weakened following the arrest of some particularly controversial activists and police raids uncovering Molotov cocktails, fireworks, and batons.
In the “best” traditions of the Maidan protests, European Parliament members have flocked to Tbilisi, while masked individuals armed with megaphones receive instructions on how to confront the police.
Today, the Georgian parliament introduced fines for the use of fireworks, lasers, and masks at rallies, as well as a requirement for licenses to import and sell fireworks and pyrotechnics.
Additionally, increased fines were implemented for graffiti and banners that deface the city’s appearance.
The bill will await the outgoing president’s signature for 10 days, after which the parliamentary chairman can sign it into law if necessary. – AN

This comes after Pelosi was suspected to have played a role in the death of Brain Thompson.

As Volkswagen workers strike in Germany over pay cuts, carmaker offers Tennesse workers 14% wage hike
Volkswagen has offered thousands of workers at its factory in Tennessee a 14% pay rise over four years, while workers in its homeland of Germany continue demonstrations over proposed pay cuts and factory closures.
The German carmaking giant proposed a landmark deal after engaging in talks with the United Auto Workers Union since April. The offer, which would give U.S. Volkswagen workers their first contract, includes for the first time profit-sharing in addition to expanded healthcare benefits.

Trump’s pick for Surgeon General, @DoctorJanette , says babies have their gender ASSIGNED at birth,
and is pushing the lie of high suicides for ‘transgender’ adolescents, comparing them to ‘c*sgender’ peers.
She actually uses that language.
Her numbers are a fiction, just like everything she said about masking our kids during COVID.
Suicides are very rare, as Chase Strangio from the ACLU finally admitted in the Supreme Court last week.
We know this from extensive data in Finland and the UK as well.
We don’t need either side weaponizing suicide with fake stats to make their argument.
She’s a rank amateur, a know-nothing propagandist, and has no business working for any health body.
What an embarrassment.
This is ONE COLOSSAL MISTAKE made by PDJT. I would love to know who recommended this liberal imposter.
“Trump’s pick for Surgeon General, @DoctorJanette, says babies have their gender ASSIGNED…”
None of your references back you up on your claim.
Until you come up with a reference actually proving she said that, your blowing smoke.
No.
Tell me something I don’t know:
If you ever think public schools are crazy with woke nonsense, elite private schools are a straight up insane asylum.
Is criminal a race? I’ve been hearing this “it’s racist” to discriminate on the basis of criminal history for DECADES. I can barely believe this is still a thing. That ranks right up there with “who are you going to get to clean your toilets Donald Trump!?”
We have all known that Actblue funnels illegal money to the DNC for years. I’m happy to see the GOPe catching up.
“‘This Is ILLEGAL’: Speaker Johnson Calls For Further Investigation Into Democrats’ Fundraising Machine”
Excerpts:
In their letter to Sift, Jordan and Steil note that recent reporting shows ActBlue “has maintained poor anti-fraud practices that have allowed bad actors to make fraudulent political donations, including from foreign sources.”
“Fraudulent political donations corrupt American elections and could amount to interstate criminal conduct,” the letter warns. “Because Sift has provided ‘fraud detection and prevention services’ for ActBlue, we write to request your cooperation with our oversight.”
“We must keep working to ensure that no foreign funds were illegally funneled into U.S. political campaigns during this election cycle. It is also critical that we enact lasting reforms to prevent illicit contributions in future election cycles,” Steil said in the statement. “Advancing legislation like the SHIELD Act will permanently close these vulnerable loopholes and safeguard the integrity of our campaign finance system.”
It’s great that they want to look in foreign funds. I wonder if they will look into US funds to Ukraine funneled back to the DNC and politicians?

For crying out loud! That was discovered years ago and ActBlue added something to the payment screen to comply with FEC. The ISSUE, Mr. Speaker… is the smurfing!

“COVID-19 Seroprevalence Study: For Official Department of Defense Use Only…Until Now”
Excerpts:
ccording to a series of eight interim reports obtained by the author in November 2024, the Department of Defense (DOD) engaged in a longitudinal SARS-CoV-2 (coronavirus) seroprevalence study of 29,000 members of the U.S. military between May 2020 and June 2021. Active, Guard, and Reserve components were included in the study.
Each document is marked “For Official Use Only” or “Controlled Classified Information” in a preventative measure to avoid being released outside of DOD.
Despite the risk, the revealing documents were provided to Children’s Health Defense by an unnamed military whistleblower.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/covid-19-seroprevalence-study-official-department-defense-use/
“Trickle, trickle, eventually it will ALL get out.”
Not a chance.
As long as “seroprevalence” is considered scientifically legitimate , the “trickle” will continue non stop.
It goes something like this: An argument which starts with a false premise (SARSCOV2 exists) and draws consistent inferences from there is valid in logic, though its conclusions will almost always be wrong.

In the Trump DOJ, I spearheaded a 2020 regulation issued to ban payments arising out of criminal or civil cases to third parties, because that violates the Antideficiency Act and the Miscellaneous Receipts Act (as well as Congress’s power of the purse).
It took the Biden people at DOJ until May 2022 to get that regulation reversed.
Now, with their fear of the impending return of President Trump, the Bidenites are trying to lock in their illegal policy of siphoning off criminal and civil fines to divert that money to third party leftist NGOs.
So sad and pathetic.
DOGE should be part of pulling down this regulation post January 20, 2025. Termination of this regulation cannot happen fast enough.

Yes! Get rid of DST.
Yes, get rid of it completely as opposed to making DST permanent which is a dumb idea. Who wants almost complete darkness until 8 am in winter anyway?
Split the difference, move standard time ahead half an hour and leave there year round.
Those of us here in Arizona would be happy to have y’all aboard.
Save us the hassel of trying to figure out where our friends and relatives have wandered off to, fell back to, sprang forward to, and which Sunday in what month it happened.
You sound like my sister in Scottsdale.
Thomas Massie suggested this on X. AZ doesn’t have DST. Farmers hate it; cows and other livestock don’t change their schedule.

“‘Kids for Cash’ victim reacts after Biden commutes sentence for Pennsylvania judge”
Excerpts:
SCRANTON, Pa. (WBRE/WYOU) — President Joe Biden commuted the sentence of disgraced “Kids for Cash” Judge Michael Conahan, and one victim is expressing anger over it.
Conahan and fellow Judge Mark Ciavarella, both of Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, were convicted in connection with a scheme that sent thousands of juveniles to two private detention centers in exchange for millions of dollars in kickbacks.
Lorah was sent to detention for five years for being involved in a fight at a high school volleyball game.
“So he wants to talk about Conahan and everybody else, but what is Joe Biden doing for all of these kids who absolutely got nothing and almost no justice in this whole thing that happened? So it’s nothing for us, but it seems that Conaan is just getting a slap on the wrist every which way he possibly could still today,” Lorah explained.

Another day, another example of Government overreach. Thankfully the SEC DEI initiatives are being slapped down.
“Appeals Court Trashes SEC’s Demands for Board Diversity”
Excerpt:
A federal appeals court has trashed the rules imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission that required companies to have quotas from various population groups.
The decision found the SEC had no authority to impose its demands.
“We are grateful the court reached the right conclusion in this case,” Stefan Padfield, of the Free Enterprise Project, told USA Today. “The SEC was reaching beyond its statutory authority to try and engage in progressive social engineering. The court’s decision here is not only correct on the law, but also consistent with the will of the American people, who are sick and tired of seeing their government engage in divisive identity politics
