The ultimate goal of giving the government the ability to write labor terms and impose them on private sector workers and businesses through binding arbitration has always been to give more power and money to union officials, the ones who wield power in Washington, not individual union workers.
That’s an important distinction that conservatives understood when they stood strong against EFCA. They should oppose the Faster Labor Contracts Act just as vigorously.

Every time I see a photo of Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, I can’t help but think the only things missing g are a Nazi uniform, jackboots, and riding crop.
At this juncture, I believe he played an integral role in the criminal electoral overthrow through the 2020 election. As it has turned out, he therefore also by his actions ensured that today we have DJT as our President once again. I’m sure he didn’t see that coming…
And here we are at the midterms and a second bite at the apple for him… or at least it certainly seems he is up to something.
A leopard doesn’t change its spots.
Georgia’s primary is today.
Secret ballot counting, Raffensperger?

Ms Betsy, lets pray the court intervenes in Raffenspergers plan to play games with the numbers again. President Trump put a huge bullseye on Massies back, and Raffensknuckleberger needs be on the list of Trump Bullseyes as well. Like starting now. The DOJ cannot prosecute fast enough in the Fulton County vote scam case.
Dear Lord here our prayers! Amen
This isn’t hidden, as the 2020 shenanigans were.
This is out in the open.
I wish I had confidence that a nonpartisan judiciary would slap this down and without hesitancy, WorkforHim. So yes, I will pray for that. This cannot strand.
Annnnd done!!

The one thing that made him and Kemp obvious to me was there utter desperation to install the Dominion machines before the 2020 elections; I’ve always wondered how much they got paid for that.
Along with the united wall they presented against election transparency, before, during and after.
Yes, definitely got paid well.
See Thune.
Raffensberger went running to the New York Times right after his call with Trump in an attempt to make Trump look bad. Why would anyone America First do that, especially given the uncertainties surrounding Georgia and other states? I hadn’t heard of this guy before, but that told me right away that he isn’t on our side.
A dead giveaway, John.
Also curious was the bomb which killed Kemp’s daughter’s boyfriend before the hard push for Dominon. Have you ever wondered about that and its timing? I have…
As far as I know that brutal murder was never solved.
Clean up on Aisle Georgia, please…and the rest.
No, I missed that one Betsy; I am certainly not surprised though.
I must correct myself here…the accident was post the 2020 election when eyebrows were raised about the Georgia results and that broken water pipe.
An interesting six minute video which raised some questions.
I neither believe or disbelieve….just found it curious.
This is interesting and I used to wait for the evidence in the traditional guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, but since they released a bioweapon on us, deliberately murdered untold elderly and the most vulnerable among us for their own aggrandizement, my disposition has changed; when the subject matter has any little confluence at all with politics, my new standard is they are guilty until proven innocent, or as in the case with President Trump, until they prove themselves as truly wanting to Make America Great Again.
Thanks for posting Betsy.
Their trust capital is in the red so deeply, they’ll never dig their way out.
But then once anyone betrays trust and shows him or herself for what they are, that’s it.
Done.
You’re welcome, dear sir…
Harrison Deal was the name of the boy killed in Pooler, Ga. He worked for Kelly Loeffler and was dating Gov. Kemp’s daughter.
Do you believe in assassination culture?
I believe his daughter was supposed to be in the car but changed her mind and stayed home.

Sounds like the UFO’s really need to enroll in driver’s ed courses. Or maybe take vision tests and get corrective lenses? You’d think their autopilot would be more advanced than our most advanced self-driving technology.
It just sounds so stupid to hear they’ve been crashing all over the place all the time. It sounds more like trying to blame them for failed military technology.

Just saw yet another headline in which Whoopi badmouths President Trump.
Since he was part of the Hollywood entertainment crowd for awhile I’m wondering if they had some personal interaction, some reason why she ended up so chronically irrational and knee-jerk anti-Trump, no matter the topic.
She used to be half way decent. Knew a couple people who worked in Hollywood, and when questioned who was the most down to earth actor they ever met, they both said Whoopi. Now they just shake their head in Amazement at her derangement and wonder what happened to her.
President did make a cameo in her movie, “The Associate”; they may have met then.
They were both in the movie The Lil Rascals
He didn’t grab her —–. She never forgave him for the slight.

Why are Republicans looking to pass Obama-era Forced Unionization bill?
Politics? While unions are owned, workers of the old school type are not (Teamsters, Ironworkers etc.,) and in my experience with them, they are 99.9 percent MAGA.
The rise of FLCA has baffled many labor policy experts, because the bill copies almost verbatim binding arbitration language that Democrats tried and failed to pass using the filibuster-proof majority they briefly held in 2009. Then, Democrats took control of 60 U.S. Senate seats. With BHO in the White House and Nancy Pelosi in charge of the House of Representatives; the party, (if united); was unstoppable. Not even a Republican Senate filibuster could prevent the Democrats from passing any extreme legislation they wanted.
First, they turned American health care upside-down by passing Obamacare, but Democrats also hoped to use their huge majority to pass the radical Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), which would have fundamentally changed the laws that govern how employers, employees, and labor union officials interact. The bill faced opposition so intense that even a few Senate Democrats balked, and EFCA was narrowly defeated.
Josh Hawley introduced the Faster Labor Contracts early last year. One of EFCA’s main provisions is back in zombie form. Hawley’s bill has a small but growing contingency of 17 House and 3 Senate Republican supporters, including the handful who are working to get it discharged to the House floor.
Democrats have been more than happy to play along, and legislation that was once seen as too extreme for their Obama-era supermajority is getting alarmingly close to passing. Legislation that was once seen as too extreme for their Obama-era supermajority is getting alarmingly close to passing. alarmingly close to passing. The modern counterpart is so bad, because of the warped thinking that went into EFCA.
EFCA’s creators wanted to make it easier for union officials to take control of a new workplace. When union organizers approach a group of workers at a particular company, their goal is to be certified by the government as the workers’ “bargaining agent” so that they can then negotiate a contract with the workers’ employer.
Most contracts come with a lucrative prize: Union bosses get the ability to extract union dues directly out of workers’ paychecks. Each newly organized workplace becomes an additional revenue stream that ultimately helps fund a multibillion-dollar political machine that unions use almost exclusively to benefit Democrat candidates for office. That’s why the Democrats who wrote EFCA were eager to make it as easy as possible for union bosses to get dues extraction started at a new workplace.
With some exceptions, U.S. labor law puts two main requirements on union bosses before they can start taking money from workers. They must win an election among employees, then negotiate and sign a contract with their employer. EFCA sought to speed up that process by replacing elections and contract negotiations with laughable parodies.
Instead of voting via secret ballot, workers would be subject to “card-check drives.” Union organizers would approach workers one by one and demand they sign a union card. If the worker relented, that would count as a “yes” vote in favor of unionization. Unions have a reputation for real and threatened violence during organizing drives, so it’s no wonder they felt their chances were much better if workers made the “choice” to unionize in full view of union organizers, who were free to pester them again and again until they signed away their rights.
Instead of contract bargaining, there would be “binding arbitration.” For 90 days, unions and employers would come to the table as normal and work toward an agreement. After that, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service could be called in to “mediate” the talks for an additional 30 days. If no agreement was reached, the agency gained the power to convene an arbitration panel that would write up a contract that bound both the union and the employer for two years.
EFCA made unionization faster, but only by taking away checks that workers and employers had on union bosses.
Today, unions are still pushing for the “binding arbitration” half of EFCA. It’s on the smorgasbord of provisions in the so-called PRO Act, a union-backed bill supported by all but a few congressional Democrats, and it’s central to the Faster Labor Contracts Act.
The handful of Republicans who are supporting FLCA have no doubt been influenced by lobbying pressure from the Teamsters Union and its president, Sean O’Brien, who has made headlines for his supposed overtures to Republicans.
O’Brien and the cadre of D.C. intellectuals who welcome increased union boss involvement in Republican politics point out that working-class voters are now more likely to support Republicans than they were in decades past. But shifts in voting patterns don’t turn bad policies into good ones.
The ultimate goal of giving the government the ability to write labor terms and impose them on private sector workers and businesses through binding arbitration has always been to give more power and money to union officials, the ones who wield power in Washington, not individual union workers.
That’s an important distinction that conservatives understood when they stood strong against EFCA.
They should oppose the Faster Labor Contracts Act just as vigorously.
Democrats have been more than happy to play along.
Thanks for taking the time for the post; after reading it, I vaguely remember that fight and the EFCA, the part relating to banning of the secret ballot I remember well, which is always a no go outside of politicians, public agencies, and corporations. I’ll have to give this a closer look if I can find the time.

HELL YEAH!🚨HUGE WIN for election transparency in Georgia TODAY!
Fulton County Superior Court just slammed Brad Raffensperger with a Temporary Restraining Order — effective IMMEDIATELY on Election Day.
HUGE shoutout to Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, Congressman Clay Fuller, Congressman, Rich McCormick, and Senator Greg Dolezal for making this happen and to Senator Dolezol and others for filing this!!!
Poll watchers (appointed by candidates/parties) and State Election Board observers now have full access to watch tabulation, aggregation, verification, and reporting of votes at the Secretary of State’s central office, Election Night Reporting Room, and everywhere results are handled. Georgia law demands it (O.C.G.A. § 21-2-408, etc.), proceedings must be open to the public, and the Court said: no more blocking transparency.
The judge nailed it: irreparable harm if denied, public trust is everything (especially when the SoS is running in the election he’s overseeing), and this is zero burden on Raffensperger — Simple. Just follow the law.
Remember Raffensperger’s arrogant campaign response mocking Greg Dolezal and the whole lawsuit? “Buckle up Greg… you’re about to join Stacey Abrams, Joe Biden, and the New Georgia Project on the long list of people who sued me and lost.” 😂
How’s that working out, Brad? Court just proved you wrong in record time.
Transparency WINS.
Arrogance LOSES.
The people are watching.

Great news, thanks for posting!
Vindictive SOB!
This is just as I predicted, that, as a lame duck now, he would block President Trump’s agenda at every opportunity. Just like Tillis, and soon to be Cornyn.
He can join the “Mean little Girls Club” like the other two.
So yesterday on Day 484 of President Trump’s second term the Senate finally confirmed the very 1st (plus 7 more) of PT’s US Marshal nominations! There is a total of 94 US Marshal positions.
Also in that same ‘en bloc’ vote for PT’s nominations were an additional 13 US Attorneys. The Senate confirmed 31 USA’s in 2025, but until yesterday, none this calendar year. So, we now have total of 44 out of 93 USA’s.
Now the US Marshals have a lot of control over not just the direction of the Marshal Service, but also on the hiring and direction of the 3,900+/- Deputy US Marshals as well as the 5,000+/- contracted Court Security personnel.
The USA’s guide and direct the 6,300+/- AUSA’s (Assistant U S Attorneys).
That’s a lot of LE and prosecutorial ‘fire power’ between the USA’s and the US Marshals that has been lacking or nonexistent this second term.
Wonder what instigated this Senate action finally?
Remember, hold your nose, do whatever we have to, to win the mid-terms. You can’t fix anything once you’re dead, and if we lose a house to Dems, we are dead come 20 Jan 29.
There was a football movie titled The Program about a fictional big university called ESU. The head coach Sam Winters is livid when the back up Quarterback Bobby Collins uses his daughter to take a test for him and sleeping with her; it takes everything he has not to take Collins apart limb by limb, and he certainly doesn’t do anything he can to help him avoid expulsion.
Later, in order to save the current season when his #1 has to go to rehab due to a DUI and will miss 4 games, Coach Winters is forced to defend Collins before a board to get Collins reinstated. This scene showcases James Caan’s ability as an actor as he portrays the fight between the desire to hurt Collins and the necessity of making the best move for the team.
Be coach Winters! If all we have to vote for is RINOs, then do everything that you can to save the MAGA agenda and get them into office.
The confirmation of Nancy Abudu versus Justin Smith
I Prelude
President Trump works 16 (of 48) months in WH still lacking staff that fits with his agenda. FNN praised GOP’s move [1] to confirm another batch of his picks “that will have installed 60% of his civilian nominees.” [2] Justin D. Smith, nominated to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, was not listed.
II. Nancy Abudu’s biography
III. SPLC indictment
The 501(c)(3) non-profit organization was to be a “catalyst for racial justice in the South and beyond, working in partnership with communities to dismantle white supremacy, strengthen intersectional movements, and advance the human rights of all people.” They funneled more than $ 3M in donated funds to individuals who were associated with various violent extremist groups including the Ku Klux Clan, Aryan Nations, and National Socialis Party of America.[3]

[4] How daughter of Ghanaian immigrants Nancy Abudu worked her way up to make history as judge in U.S.
Justin Smith was not included in the Senate ‘en bloc’ vote for 2 reasons.
A circuit court judge can not be confirmed in an ‘en bloc’ vote. District court judge-yes, circuit court judge-no.
And his nomination was not passed out of the Judiciary Committee until 5/18/2026, so he wasn’t even on the Executive Calendar anyway. (None passed out of committee on or after 4/27 was eligible to be included in the ‘en bloc’ because Thune filed on 4/27/2026.)
Justin Smith was nominated by President Trump on 2/18/26, his hearing took place on 4/15/26, and on 4/30/26 he was not advanced.

Not going to happen, should but won’t Senate Republicans are feckless also eunuchs’!!
The Senate Parliamentarian is an advisory position only and can be over ruled or fired by the President(or President ‘pro tem’ ) of the Senate or by a simple majority vote in other cases. It is not done very often, but it has been done numerous times in the past.
Politically it is considered a ‘nuclear’ option as it opens the door for a majority party to use it to ignore or ride roughshod over ‘standard Senate tradition’.
Is “standard Senate tradition” in accordance with the Constitution? Or made up out of thin air? Asking for a friend!
The ruling that a budgetary matter can’t be included in the reconciliation bill is a bad ruling – in fact it’s the reason that NON-budgetary inclusions have been tossed on a number of occasions by this very same parliamentarian.

California Vigilence Commitee
Two major vigilante groups operated in San Francisco, California, one occurring in 1851 and the other in 1856, both of which arose during the California Gold Rush in response to rampant crime, government corruption, and prejudice against immigrants. These two militia-style groups lynched 12 people, kidnapped hundreds of others, and forced several elected officials to resign. Each Committee of Vigilance formally relinquished power after deciding the city had been “cleaned up.”

I miss my Dad every day, when I was young skull full of mush, shout out to Rush, when my counterculture nature was blossoming, he had a great way to push back he didn’t argue with me he educated me.
Thankfully, Dad’s wisdom eventually took with me.
I might say something like, “Someday we’ll be in charge” and my Dad would answer something like; “I count the days” …and roll his eyes.
In the 60’s seeing billboards saying, “Who is John Galt”. I asked my Dad, what does that mean? The long and the short…he gave me a copy of Atlas Shrugged.
At the time I was very young and couldn’t get through the book, but during dark years of Jimmy Carter seeing the lunacy, with the odd/even gas rationing, I got through it…Wow! I like to quip; Carter cured me and Reagan fully turned on the light.
I read it again in the early 90’s, I’ll blame it on Perot, and it was Wow! again.

Actually, Armenia is the first nation/country to adopt Christianity as the OFFICIAL RELIGION of the country 🙂
I guess that makes it the first “Christian nation” — but any country with an “official religion” is not something to brag about 🙂
There was another group before the Armenians.
As a nation, nope.
Which one then?
King James Version; Isaiah 37 v 36-38 (Interesting Armenia Connection)
Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. 37So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh. 38And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.

So frustrating to see these endless lawfare games, especially when it’s the RINOs doing it.
This is disgusting!!! You know damn well shenanigans will occur…. and if Rafsenberger(SP!) wins the Gov race, well… let’s just say it will be highly suspect!

Was wondering what happened there when I saw the headline earlier. Serves him right, pompous git.
Say good-bye MASSIE, you burro.
Truth…
Ken Paxton just called out John Cornyn for PRETENDING to support President Trump just so he can be re-elected
“First of all, he has not been in friend of the president.
In 2016, Cornyn said Trump is ‘an albatross around our neck’
Then in 2024, he said [Trump’s] time has passed, and he insinuating he was guilty of crimes.
This guy has been a ‘friend’ of Donald Trump since a year ago, but he has NOT been a friend of his prior to that, and as soon as this race is over, he will NOT be a friend to Donald Trump.
That is not his history, that is not his record, and he has been dishonest with the voters of Texas trying to convince them that he has voted 99% of the president.
What does that even mean?! We KNOW that’s not true.”
Government does NOT grant us our rights – their job is only to PROTECT them.
That’s an awful lot of extra ballots to be filled in so they can throw an election…
Update on Trump revenge tour on fellow Republicans, just in the last two weeks alone:
— Ousted most of the Indiana Senators who bucked him on mid-decade redistricting
— Ousted Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy, who voted to impeach him in 2021
— Ousted Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie, who frequently voted against him & helped get the Epstein files released
— And as a cherry on top, both statewide elected officials who bucked him in 2020 with his attempts to overturn the state’s election results — Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger & Attorney General Chris Carr — are both getting their clocks cleaned in the Georgia Governor Republican primary.
Trump may be wildly unpopular nationally, but he still has an iron grip on the Republican Party.
RINO revenge is voting for the spiteful War Powers resolution by D Tim Kaine to attempt to cut off President Trump from a final solution with Iran.
Cassidy, Paul, Collins and Murkowski sold us down the river cause TDS.
(No doubt it’s a Thune/McConnell sell out)
I’m sending this to all my TDS democrat acquaintances. They need to read some commonsense explanation of what they are with their crazy fixation on PDJT. Grow up is going to be my message at the end.
“Children complain because children think life is supposed to be fair. And when that childish expectation survives into adulthood, what you get are grown people who spend more time counting grievances than blessings.
One of the hallmarks of maturity is accepting two realities: life is not fair, and no one but you is ultimately responsible for your lot in life. Emotionally sturdy adults understand this. They stop blaming, stop whining, and get on with the business of living.
My generation was taught early not to stew in our own juices and not to expect the world to bend itself into a pretzel for our comfort. When we complained too much, Grandma had a simple remedy: “Count your blessings.”
Simple words. Sound wisdom. Gratitude builds sturdy people, and sturdy people build sturdy families, communities, and nations.
Still good advice.”

Republican-backed Justice Sarah Hawkins Warren has retained her seat on the Georgia Supreme Court, winning re-election today, by defeating Democrat-backed challenger Jen Jordan. Warren received 61.4% of the vote (655,950 votes) compared to Jordan’s 38.6% (412,307 votes), according to The New York Times election results.
Appointed by Republican Governor Nathan Deal in 2018 and previously serving as Georgia’s Solicitor General, Warren is currently the presiding justice of the court, a role she assumed in April 2025. The race, though technically nonpartisan, drew significant national attention and over $4 million in advertising, with high-profile Democrats like Barack Obama and Kamala Harris supporting Jordan, while Governor Brian Kemp and conservative groups backed Warren.
Charlie Bethel also won tonight, so no change in Republican control of the court, where 8 of the 9 justices were appointed by Republicans..
I hope all the right people for America First win their races today. The real battle will be in November.
