Well, we can put this in the: ‘things that make other things make sense’ file.  Tonight on the Tucker Carlson show the Fox News host reveled that Republican House Leader Kevin McCarthy and DeceptiCon pollster Frank Luntz live together.  WATCH:

.

That would explain why Kevin McCarthy puts Frank Luntz on the speaker podium at all the GOPe retreats and events; and why Luntz has such influence over the republican party apparatus….  UniParty gonna UniParty.

Dave Hunt represented Clackamas County in the Oregon House of Representatives from 2003 through 2013. Hunt was the former Democratic Leader, Majority Leader, and Speaker of the House for the State of Oregon. As a legislator, Hunt the sponsor of a bill criminalizing sex trafficking in 2007.  Hunt is currently a lobbyist working to influence the very chamber he left.

However, even more ironic in 2011, Dave Hunt use his position to support and vote for HB 2714.  That bill created the crime of commercial sexual solicitation, the exact crime police used to charge Hunt when he was arrested and cited.

OREGON – Former Oregon House Speaker and current Clackamas Community College board member Dave Hunt was cited by Portland police in an undercover sex traffic sting operation in April. Contacted by the Portland Tribune on Monday, May 3, Hunt said, “I don’t think I should talk about that.”

Hunt’s attorney, Micheal De Munis, said, “Mr. Hunt denies the allegations, but respects the criminal justice process and will refrain from saying more until he has his opportunity in court.”

Clackamas Community College said Hunt was taking a leave from the board.

As a legislator, Hunt was one of numerous sponsors of a bill criminalizing sex trafficking in 2007. In 2011, he also voted for HB 2714, that bill created the crime of commercial sexual solicitation, the crime for which he was arrested and cited.

..”If the public are bound to yield obedience to laws to which they cannot give their approbation, they are slaves to those who make such laws and enforce them.”..  ~Sam Adams

The Florida Legislature has completed a bill that blocks any/all local municipalities from continuing “emergency use COVID orders” that restricts business and individual freedom.  The law goes into effect on July 1st, and Governor Ron DeSantis signed the bill today in St. Petersburg.  To speed up the process, the Governor also announced he was using his executive office to suspend all local ordinances and restrictions effective immediately.

In other words, you are free to take whatever precautions you deem personally necessary but all local restrictions are blocked.

Obviously, the leftist officials in the deep blue metro-areas are going bananas at their loss of control over their citizens.

The Arizona chair of the GOP Kelli Ward provides a video update of the ballot audit in Maricopa County.  Chairwoman Ward notes May 14th was the original target date for the completion of the ballot audit per venue agreement with Veterans Memorial Coliseum.  If the auditors need more time, the audit may move to a small venue or pause for a few days to permit previously scheduled events to take place.

Bottom line: despite the efforts of the Democrats, leftist groups and leftist lawyers, to block, stall and impede the ballot audit process, the audit continues….

The Veterans Memorial Coliseum CCTV system remains active [SEE HERE]  as a public security and integrity issue.

Additionally, THIS is the official page of the Arizona Senate Liaison for the Maricopa County Election audit. “Under the direction of The Honorable Ken Bennett, former Arizona Secretary of State, an audit is underway to ensure transparency and integrity in the Maricopa County, AZ 2020 election audit.”

Charlie Crist is the mirror image of Nikki Haley (and both wear heels).

The current congresscreep is the former republican governor of Florida, who turned independent because he lost support, who then went fully over to the leftist agenda and became a democrat to run for congress in the Tampa region.  He morphs into whatever he needs to remain in politics.  He’s a weird, effeminate, likely bearded, political creature.

According to news media in/around Tampa, Florida, Charlie Crist is likely to announce a bid to run for governor against incumbent governor Ron DeSantis.

FLORIDA – U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist, a one-time Florida governor who for months has publicly mulled another run for the office, is expected to announce his future plans Tuesday.

Crist on Saturday sent out an invitation to supporters for the “special event” next week in St. Petersburg, signaling he has finalized a decision that has been in the works since the late 2020. If he moves forward, Crist would be the first Democrat to officially enter a race for the nomination to take on Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis in 2022. (read more)

Things are escalating in Maricopa County Arizona as the first week of the ballot audit comes to a close.  After democrats lost several court challenges; and after a state judge affirms the right of the Arizona Senate to conduct an audit; CNN has dispatched their hit-team to document the workers and frame an extremist narrative. [SEE HERE]

The CNN camera crews worked earnestly to get election audit volunteers on camera; the objective appears to be the familiar threats and intimidation tactics carried out by the news and narrative company in the past. A previous ground report from a local volunteer sent to the Treehouse includes:

[…] “Today law enforcement/security told us there was a vehicle or 2 about two blocks away with a long angle lens taking pictures (he thought) of the people and (I bet) license plates. We saw the one vehicle as we pulled out but couldn’t see in it. Anyway, I expected this. We are dealing with people who have no lowest. It’s getting ugly in the media now; just as usual they start their smear campaign.”

UNDERSTANDING

Joe Biden’s jumbled word salad remarks to a joint session of congress, an effort at a State of the Union speech, drew an audience rating less than President Trump’s speech in 2020.

TV Ratings for Presidential Addresses:

President Trump 2017 – 48,000,000
President Trump 2018 – 46,000,000
President Trump 2019 – 46,800,000
President Trump 2020 – 37,200,000

♦ Joe Biden 2021 – 11,600,000

UPDATE: The viewership numbers above from Charlie Kirk are incorrect.  Joe Biden 2021 should be 26.9 million (per Deadline) a decrease of 28 percent.

No crowds ever attended his rallies.  There was no crowd at his installation.  There are no views for his on-line speeches.  The audience for his regular speeches are non-existent.  Far fewer viewers at home.  An empty chamber for his speech (COVID), and yet we are to believe he received 81 million votes.

C’mon Man!

The FISA Court is Compromised

I hate to write this, but there is just no good way to look at this. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, specifically Presiding Judge James Boasberg, has hired former DOJ National Security Division head, Mary McCord, as amici curiae advisor to the court. [LINK] The placement was first noted by an announcement from Georgetown Law ICAP.

Presiding Judge James Boasberg, is the decision-maker in the appointment of Amici Curiae to the FISA court. There is no way, NO WAY, Judge Boasberg does not know Mary McCord was at the epicenter of the fraudulent FISA application used against Carter Page. Remember, in addition to being the FISC Presiding Judge, Boasberg was also the trial judge in the case against Kevin Clinesmith, the FBI lawyer who lied about Page working for the CIA on the FISA application. {Go Deep}

Boasberg knows Mary McCord took over from former DOJ-NSD head John Carlin (October 2016); and it was McCord who guided the Carter Page FISA application through the court and across the finish-line (October 2016 and January 2017). That FISA application was built upon fraud and Mary McCord was at the center of it.

Mary McCord was also the DOJ-NSD official who went with Sally Yates to confront the White House Counsel, Don McGhan, about the Michael Flynn interview with the FBI. {Go Deep} It was also Mary McCord who had Michael Atkinson as the chief-legal-counsel for the DOJ-NSD -that’s her office attorney- when the FISA application was submitted in October 2016, and renewed in January 2017.

Michael Atkinson went from DOJ-NSD counsel to become the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG). {Go Deep} In that new role Atkinson changed the rules to allow an anonymous CIA whistleblower (Ciaramella on behalf of Vindman) to file the complaint that led to the Ukraine impeachment effort. {Go Deep} Who was the lead lawyer in the Jerry Nadler led House Judiciary Committee? Why Mary McCord of course. Judge Boasberg knows all of this… AND MORE.
