It’s not very often that you get to watch a DeceptiCon evolve in real time.  Usually, with history as a guide, DeceptiCon extremists hibernate in the evolutionary process for years, only leaving a minuscule trail from which to find them until they detonate like stealth terror cells.   However, Tim Scott has prematurely detonated himself.

Appearing on CBS news to kickstart his 2024 presidential ambitions, and react/respond to the FBI raid on President Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago, Senator Tim Scott advances the DeceptiCon narrative, “we need to let this play out” etc.  WATCH, prompted:

Tim Scott will eat the bugs while funding support for the pensions and benefits in Ukraine.

We are in a time of great consequence, the greatest in several generations.  This is a political street fight to save the nation.  Those who demand we “wait for referees” while team USA gets beaten senseless are, quite frankly, worse than useless.  They are on the other side.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

~ Mike Vanderboegh

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Harmeet Dhillon responded to the raid on President Trump’s home with this quote: “If you still have respect for the DOJ and the FBI at this point, particularly the FBI, you are not paying attention.” {Direct Rumble Link} – WATCH:

It is important to keep the current political context and timing of the illicit FBI raid in mind.

It was only two weeks ago when Senator Chuck Grassley sent a letter [pdf HERE] to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray, notifying them of whistleblower allegations from within the FBI that senior leadership in both Main Justice and FBI are involved in a coordinated effort to cover-up criminal activity related to Hunter Biden.

The whistleblower allegations, in combination with the documented history of DOJ and FBI misconduct, culminate in Senator Grassley stating:

“If these allegations are true and accurate, the Justice Department and FBI are – and have been – institutionally corrupted to their very core to the point in which the United States Congress and the American people will have no confidence in the equal application of the law. Attorney General Garland and Director Wray, simply put, based on the allegations that I’ve received from numerous whistleblowers, you have systemic and existential problems within your agencies.” (LINK)

At times of greatest consequence, the legacy of leadership becomes important.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis doesn’t use his official office account to release a statement on the FBI raid in Mar-a-Lago, that likely required a joint cooperative task force response from the state, as customary for fulfilment of a federal warrant upon a Florida citizen.  Instead, Florida Governor DeSantis issues a tweet from his personal account noting the action was yet “another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies.”   Oh well, that’s a relief, heavy sigh, as long as it’s just “another escalation”….

Quick pivot right to the whataboutism politics DC is famous for… “while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves”, and “IRS agents,” etc.

You see, this is what DC does to bang the pots and pans loudly in the UniParty kitchen.  As a congressional representative, Ron DeSantis learned the chaff and countermeasures well.  Actually challenge the federal government?  No way.  Not gonna happen.

Meanwhile, compare the response from future Arizona Governor Kari Lake:

CTH phone lines are burning up with reaction to the FBI raid on the home of former President Donald Trump. I will have much more to say on this national escalation of weaponized justice department tactics later. Keep in mind that former President Obama removed every single document related to his administration from the office to a warehouse in Chicago and then his team selected the material for the national archives.

In the interim, here’s the immediate reaction from Dan Bongino {Direct Rumble Link} WATCH:

The Joe Biden administration has turned the United States into a banana republic.

According to statements released by President Donald Trump, the Biden Dept of Justice sent dozens of FBI agents to conduct a surprise raid the Mar-a-Lago estate of President Trump in Florida.

This is a historic level of political targeting by a Democrat president against his political opposition. “Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before,” Trump wrote in the statement. “After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate.”

The statement by President Trump is below:

U.S. taxpayers are now responsible for financially supporting the lifestyle of Ukrainian citizens directly.  Earlier today the Biden administration sent $4.5 billion to the Ukraine government to pay for their “salaries, pensions, welfare and healthcare costs“; with an additional $1 billion in weapons.  Total package $5.5 billion for Ukraine.  Meanwhile, congressional members are doubling the size of the IRS enforcement to keep Americans paying for these expenditures.

Europe is not paying to support the lifestyle of their neighbors, we are.  Somehow, I doubt that Germany would be willing to pay the expenses of the Mexican government – yet it is perfectly justified (in their mind) for the U.S. to carry the financial burden of Ukraine.  The more you think about it, the more infuriating it becomes.

(Reuters) -The United States will send an additional $5.5 billion in aid to Ukraine, made up of $4.5 billion in budgetary support and $1 billion in military assistance, to help it come to grips with the turmoil of this year’s Russian invasion.

The $4.5 billion budgetary grant will fund urgent government needs including payments for pensions, social welfare and healthcare costs, bringing total U.S. fiscal aid for Ukraine to $8.5 billion since Russia’s February invasion, the U.S. Agency for International Development said.

The officials who count votes in Washington State do not work weekends, they paused ballot counting last Friday but should have continued again this morning.

It sounds bizarre to even say this, but that is the status of current elections in Washington State – and the residents appear to be okay with it.  The election was six days ago, and the counting of the votes is still not completed.

There should be an update tonight and we are cautiously hopeful that republican primary challenger Joe Kent might take the lead over Decepticon incumbent Jaime Herrera Beutler.

When they stopped counting votes last Friday, Joe Kent had pulled within 257 votes of defeating Herrera-Beutler.

According to People’s Pundit [SEE HERE] most of the outstanding votes yet to be counted come from election day voting.   Mr. Kent was winning on election day voting in every county within Washington State’s third congressional district (WA, CD-03).

Washington State has a jungle primary voting system where the top two candidate’s face-off in the general election.
