MSNBC made it to my youtube algorithm somehow. Some of it is interesting but most reminds me of FOX – all opinion very little fact. MSNBC is an echo chamber as is FOX. Similarly FOX has a lot of Republicans talking shop in what they pass as analysis.
Reading the actual article on Space X, you will find the DOJ opened its investigation due to a complaint. An Austria-Canadian (dual citizenship) was asked for his citizenship during an interview and he claimed this was why he wasn’t hired. Based on this complaint, the investigation started and found that out of 10 000 applications only one asylum seeker was hired, and this only after they started investigating.
Asking for citizenship status is usually considered discriminatory in any hiring process so once the complaint was filed DOJ was obliged to investigated. Any person claiming refugee status or asylum is legally allowed to work in the US (there is an application process). This makes them different from illegal immigrants who are not allowed to work. There are thousands of people seeking asylum – I’d assume most people want them to work then receive welfare while they wait to be processed..
The abortion to birth questioning is a red herring. If I was asked do I support abortion on demand; I’d say yes not because I think its a good idea in any circumstance but because its between a woman and her doctor. The way some abortion laws are written it would prevent a D/C for a late term miscarriage or in the very least it would scare most doctors from performing one.
It was interesting to observe some Republican candidates say they supported a federal law and as Scott said not letting California, Illinois and New York decide. For 50 years, pro life argued for state rights and the repeal was partially based on state rights. Haley correctly pointed out, it would be impossible to reach a consensus in the Congress.
The Biden vs Trump numbers in the tweet have no context – I’d be interested to know what period of time is used since Trumps worsened due to Covid, except gas prices.
No one on the left, Democratic or NT thought Trump’s surrender was a normal thing. Some gloated but most tsk-tsked about how Trump etc brought the Republic to a low point. So both sides see the Republic dying or at least at low ebb but just place the blame in different places.
And on more time; Trump is indicted for conspiring to overturn the election not for questioning the results.

“On Thursday, the County of Maui sued Hawaiian Electric for allegedly causing the wildfires that killed at least 115 people:
Today, the County of Maui filed a lawsuit against Maui Electric Company, Limited, Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc., Hawaiʻi Electric Light Company, Inc., and Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. for civil damages caused to the County’s public property and resources caused by recent Maui fires, including fires in Lāhainā and in Kula. The lawsuit was filed in the Second Circuit Court and the case number is 2CCV-23-0000238.
The lawsuit alleges that the Defendants acted negligently by failing to power down their electrical equipment despite a National Weather Service Red Flag Warning on August 7th. The lawsuit further alleges HECO’s energized and downed power lines ignited dry fuel such as grass and brush, causing the fires. The lawsuit also alleges failure to maintain the system and power grid, which caused the systemic failures starting three different fires on August 8th.
Of course, the lawsuit mentions climate change: “The great threat of hurricanes and their attendant high wind gusts regularly loom over the State of Hawai‘i. A number of hurricanes endanger the state each year. Climate change makes hurricanes more powerful and ferocious, greatly increasing the peril for Hawai‘i, statewide.”
Yes, let’s give the defendants an excuse. “We couldn’t help it. Men made the climate change, and the hurricanes got stronger!”

And when this causes the next batch of wildfires, it will be global warmings fault, and not the environuts who won’t allow proper stewardship of the forests.
“Environmentalists Sue US Forest Service Over Plans to Thin Forest around Big Bear
Hopefully, the water officials in the Big Bear area will allow resources to be used when the inevitable wildfire does break out.”
“I classify the Maui wildfire as the first woke-cause disaster.
Unfortunately, California may be the site of the second one. Environmental groups are suing the US Forest Service for plans to thin about 13,000 acres of forest area around Big Bear.
A U.S. Forest Service project aims to thin what officials call an overgrown forest, although the plan is being met with resistance by several environmental groups.”
—
“In order do do prescribed burns, Forest Service officials also must jump through California’s massive regulatory hoops. Forest Service burn boss Christina Barba shared her experience on attempting to do prescribed burns in the Big Bear area in the 2021 season.
Next on the list of obstacles in Barba’s way is air quality. In the eyes of the California Air Resources Board (CARB), Big Bear and the nearby Inland Empire are part of the greater Los Angeles area. When smoggy skies in places like Fontana or Pasadena don’t meet the national clean air standard, local air quality officials can say no to Barba’s plans up until noon the day before a prescribed burn. In Big Bear, where the skies are usually clear, it’s difficult to tell when that will happen.
“We share an air basin with Los Angeles and the entire Inland Empire. So, because the Inland Empire has ozone or some days they have more [pollution] than they should, it shuts down burning in the entire basin,” she said. “We lost about five burn days that way.”
Hopefully, the water officials in the Big Bear area will allow resources to be used when the inevitable wildfire does break out. Then, at least, California may be able to stave off a massive tragedy caused by eco-activism and over-regulation.”
“The remaining six candidates looked unserious and did not appear to have a strategy to help solve America’s and the world’s biggest problems. They were all eager for the job but, other than possibly Ron DeSantis, whose biggest political accomplishment has been in turning Florida deep-red, did not instill any confidence that they could become an effective leader of the Free World.
The debate continued for two hours, each candidate reciting practiced lines. But many of the responses were remarkably similar to those that you hear from the Democrats.
Abortion. On abortion, only North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis agreed that the matter has now irreversibly and correctly moved to the states. Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said that a federal ban was impractical (meaning it was a process issue because the measure couldn’t get 60 Senate votes) but did not appreciate the elegance of the Supreme Court decision when it ruled based on the supremacy of the Tenth Amendment. Mike Pence wants a six-week federal ban; Tim Scott wants a 15-week federal ban. Both sounded like Democrats arguing for federal control of a state issue.
Federal debt. No candidate spoke convincingly about how they would solve the country’s massive debt problem, now inching towards $50 trillion in ten years. Pence avoided answering a question about how the debt ballooned during his time as VP. Instead, he cautioned that the Trump tax cuts were about to sunset in 2025 and that he would irresponsibly extend them without saying how he would pay for them. No one even raised the issue of entitlement reform, with only a few talking about cuts to discretionary spending, which accounts for less than 15% of the budget.
Election integrity. No one addressed what caused hundreds of thousands to march in Washington on January 6, 2021. No one complimented the many GOP states that have passed election integrity reform laws since 2020. By staying away from the issue, they looked like the average Democrat who insists that a whole slew of 2020 election irregularities (no-excuse absentee ballots, drop-boxes, insufficient signature validation, late acceptance of ballots, illegal Zuckbucks-type contributions, etc.) does not merit attention.
Law and order. While there were comments about the idiocy of defunding the police and fentanyl, no one spoke about the disaster in the summer of 2020 when race riots killed four times as many people as on January 6. No one had a plan to rid American urban areas of homelessness, abject poverty, unhygienic conditions, and drug abuse, other than to argue for more police. We know that stepped-up law enforcement alone will not address the issue.
Big Tech and misinformation. Gov. DeSantis was most comfortable discussing how Florida dealt with school closings and mask mandates. But nearly everyone else seemed more like Democrats. No one challenged COVID’s origins; no one declared that it was wrong for the government to work with Big Tech to suppress meaningful dialog under the garb of misinformation. No one criticized the 51 intelligence officers who deliberately helped sway the election to Biden.
Ukraine and foreign policy. The moderators shockingly did not bring up Ukraine until after the debate’s first hour. No candidate addressed why Russia did not attack Ukraine when President Trump was in office. No one discussed the risk that the Russia-Ukraine war could escalate to World War III. No candidate assured Americans about nuclear weapons. Pence, Christie, and Haley continued the Democratic establishment position that supporting Ukraine was in America’s national security interests, falsely asserting that Putin would invade other NATO countries if he were not stopped. No one discussed the rise of the BRICS countries or how they would take steps to ensure that the dollar remains the world’s dominant currency.
Deep State and Lawfare. Other than Tim Scott, Ramaswamy, and DeSantis, no candidate spoke about the weaponization of the DOJ. No one talked about how the Deep State triggered the Russia-Russia-Russia hoax that crippled the first two years of the Trump administration. No debater acknowledged that, based on what we now know about the Biden family’s dealings in Ukraine, Trump’s first impeachment was unwarranted. No candidate offered that regarding January 6, Trump was already punished -being impeached a second time and acquitted by the Senate – so pressing criminal charges against a political opponent was unAmerican.
The modern GOP is firmly uniparty and indistinguishable from the Washington Democrats and the Beltway types. Without a MAGA agenda, a new GOP administration would essentially look like the Biden administration, except for a few changes to appeal to the religious right.”
“The indictments of Donald Trump are tissue thin and intended only to harass him and disrupt the 2024 election.
The legal claims stipulated in Jack Smith’s latest indictment are spurious, constitutionally unfounded, and patently unlawful. The overriding theory of Smith’s case is that Donald Trump conspired to defraud the United States and obstruct an official election proceeding as president. The Smith indictment further stipulates a “conspiracy against rights,” which again goes to the President’s alleged scheme to knowingly conspire to deprive Americans of their right to vote and have their votes counted fairly. As will be discussed below, each one of these claims are easily discreditable, and have no basis whatsoever in law or fact.
Under count one, 18 U.S. Code § 371, the United States improperly brought a criminal charge for fraud using a statute that the Supreme Court has circumscribed repeatedly over many years to apply specifically to financial crimes only. Thus, no matter how many times Jack Smith insists and repeatsthat President Trump “knowingly” deceived the American people of election fraud does not make it true. Furthermore, Jack Smith does exactly what he accused President Trump and his cadre of “co-conspirators” of doing in his indictment: by “reverse engineering” statutes and shoehorning them into criminal statutes for which they were never intended, Smith manifests wholly novel and ahistorical legal theories, out of thin air, without even a gesture to the countervailing historical and legal record for which they were originally designed and to which they have only ever been applied by courts.
Even under the broader definition of “defraud”—i.e. in the anomalous instances where this statute might be applied outside of the financial crimes context—there is still no basis for these particular charges. It will be impossible for the prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the President was working to “interfere with or obstruct one of [the government’s] lawful functions by deceit, craft, or trickery, or by means that are dishonest,” since President Trump always was—on the advice of competent counsel—following the constitutionally-permissible and lawful avenues to challenge the election. (United States v. Nersesian, 824 F.2d 1294, 1313 [2d Cir. 1987].)
Similarly, the charge under 18 U.S.C. § 241, a Reconstruction-era statute under which Douglas Mackey was recently convicted for tweeting that Hillary Clinton supporters could text their votes instead of voting at the polls, presupposes that the actions taken by the President were dishonest in nature. The Supreme Court read into this statute the requirement of a specific intent to deprive another of a right or interfere with another’s rights. See United States v. Guest, 383 U.S. 745. For the same reasons as above, such a burden cannot possibly be proven. President Trump was acting under his belief that the election was improperly conducted and took the steps necessary within the bounds of the Constitution to challenge the results.
With all constitutional arguments, we should begin with the language from the document itself. Paragraph two of Article II, Section I provides as follows:
Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector. [Emphasis added.]
What should be apparent, even by just a cursory reading of the text, is that, contrary to widely-held belief, there is no constitutional requirement of state legislatures to provide for choosing electors by popular election. Quite the contrary: as John Eastman persuasively argued in his legal analysis submitted to the President on November 5, 2020, in the early history of the republic “most state legislatures selected the state’s presidential electors themselves.” Only after 1824 did the majority of state legislatures begin choosing electors by popular election. However, that change did not in any way, shape, or form transform the fundamental plenary – i.e., unqualified – power by state legislatures to make a determination of how electors can be chosen.
This position was reaffirmed in the decision, McPherson v. Blacker, 146 U.S. 1, 35 (1892), in which the Supreme Court held: “whatever provisions may be made by statute, or by the state constitution, to choose electors by the people, there is no doubt of the right of the legislature to resume the power at any time.” This view was upheld in more recent times in Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. at 104 (2000), wherein the Court said: “The State, of course, after granting the franchise in the special context of Article II, can take back the power to appoint electors.”
Eastman elaborates the undisputable view that if state election law procedures are ignored or flagrantly violated, as was the case in the 2020 general election, the Legislature has the duty to exercise its plenary power over the administration of election procedures. Here again, it is appropriate to quote him at length:
To be sure, “at any time” would likely not allow the Legislature to pick its own slate of electors after the results of a fair election which had been conducted pursuant to the Legislature’s existing statutory procedures, merely on the grounds that the Legislature would have preferred a different outcome … But such is not the case when the existing procedures were not followed, and when significant statistical anomalies raise serious questions about whether the election was fair. In such cases, the “manner” for choosing electors set out by the Legislature was not followed; the constitutional default of the Legislature exercising its plenary power – or, rather, resuming that power – is therefore again at the forefront.
So, as Eastman notes, the question becomes under what circumstances is the Legislature permitted to select its own, alternative slate of fair electors consistent with their constitutionally prescribed plenary power. Both the text of the Constitution and relevant statutory authorities, such as Section 2 of Title 8, provide that the Legislature has plenary power for choosing electors – which is the constitutional default. (Art. II, Section 1 of the Constitution reads as follows: “Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.”) Whenever the method for choosing electors fails to comply with the procedures expressly outlined by the Legislature, both the Constitution and Section 2 of Title 8 authorizes the Legislature to appoint electors or craft an alternative method for appointing the State’s slate of electors, again, in accordance with the Legislature’s plenary power.
As Eastman elaborates in his second memorandum, numerous “important state election laws were altered or dispensed with altogether in key swing states and/or cities and counties.” These laws were designed to reduce election fraud. So, the fact that they were dispensed with in the lead-up to the 2020 general election is especially problematic from a constitutional perspective. Among the more notable state laws changed, which were fleshed out in greater detail in an earlier article discussing the evidence of election fraud, included a Georgia law that “altered signature verification requirements via an unauthorized settlement agreement.” (See Trump v. Kemp et al. [N.D. Ga., filed Dec. 31]). In Pennsylvania, the violations were even more egregious. Again, here it is appropriate to quote Eastman’s findings verbatim: “Following a collusive suit brought by the League of Women Voters against the Democrat Secretary of the Commonwealth seeking to require that absentee ballots not passing the signature verification process be given notice and an opportunity to cure, the Secretary unilaterally abolished the signature verification process altogether, issuing a directive that not only was it not required, it was not even permitted. She then filed an emergency writ action with the partisan-elected Supreme Court to ratify her elimination of that statutory requirement.” (See Trump v. Boockvar et al., [S. Ct., filed Dec. 21].)
Other notable violations were observed across other key battleground states. In Wisconsin, for example, as noted in two cert petitions, Trump v. Biden, filed on Dec. 29, and Trump v. Wisc. Elections Comm’n, filed on Dec. 30, the state used unmanned drop boxes, employed so-called “human drop boxes,” and allowed election officials to add missing information to absentee voter or witness declarations, all contrary to law. In Michigan, absentee ballots were mailed out to every registered voter and remote drop boxes were established only in heavily Democratic precincts, also in express violation of statutory procedure. Other evidence of fraud was seen in states like Arizona and Nevada, which reduced election registration and signature inspection requirements, making their elections more susceptible to fraud as a result, again in violation of federal law. These are just a select handful of a mountain of illegalities that rendered irreparable damage upon election integrity, and for which, as a result of that fraud, would lawfully permit state Legislatures to exercise their plenary power, as is their constitutional right, to make post-election changes to the appointment of electors, with the aim towards ensuring a fair election.
No matter how you feel about Trump, this is a dark day in American history.
The Democratic Party going after their primary opponent for frivolous charges has not only set back American trust in our system but has likely set back trust in democracy & the moral standing of…
Some people are confused by this like we didn’t have an entire summer of protests in 2020 focusing on Blacks being victimized by the justice system. Why wouldn’t a fellow victim, like Trump, be relatable?
All of Biden’s corrupt, nefarious activities using the “robert l. peters” e-mail address are just beginning to surface – right now, it’s just the tip of the iceberg (and all b/c of the H. Biden laptop).
Look for impeachment proceedings to start in a few weeks…
Abortion… the ending of a life…might be between a woman and her doctor but there are many more involved. A baby, a Dad, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles…
And to suggest a doctor could get in trouble performing a D&C after a miscarriage is indeed a red herring…
I am saddened and astounded there are those among us who have the mindset to believe it to be well and good for a baby’s life to be ended one second before exiting the womb as a whole viable living precious human to be held in the arms of someone who cares… oh the darkness lurking in the heart of man….
AJ – Trump challenged 200 years of tradition in the peaceful transfer of power. He questioned the outcome, lawyers launched challenges in court, and were denied. He exhausted all legal remedies so he and others sought to overturn the election through false electors, opening voting machines, asking a secy of state to find votes, etc. This never occurred in a US election – this broke tradition and convention and now consequences have occurred. A grand jury decided the evidence was sufficient for trial; the rules are being followed.
I would agree that there is a two tiered system though. Trump was in and out of the jail in record time. Yes, he had a mug shot but most of his paperwork was prearranged prior to arrival. If he had to wait like a regular criminal, he would have been there for a few hours and they would have weighed as opposed to taking his word that he was 215lbs. I’m 215lbs and 6 feet; I may have a dad bod but nowhere close to his body shape.
I mentioned this a few days ago. The electric company in the pursuit of profit neglected maintenance and safety protocol. It’s no surprise to see Maui County. Next they should go after the private company who controlled the water supply. Never trust the private sector with basic necessities of life.
If federal debt is important to MAGA, why did Trump champion tax cuts to the wealthy which increased the deficit and the debt? If the MAGA Republicans truly wanted fiscal conservatism they would demand taxes revert to the level seen in the Clinton administration – the last president to balance the budget.
The Republicans have spent the last four years bashing the FBI, DOJ and other law enforcement agencies. They are no longer the party of law and order.
Russia first attacked Ukraine in 2104. The war was limited to the Donbass and Crimea and continued off and on since that time, throughout Trump’s presidency. It was pretty much ignored by the West. As Ukraine slowly moved into the EU orbit, Putin decided a quick coup to replace Zelensky was in order. He failed. And the current war is the result. None of this has anything to do with US domestic politics or who was president. It had more to do with Ukraine’s aspiration to orient itself with the EU and not Russia.
I like the term uniparty. I’ve always argued there was very little difference between a Clinton/Obama Democrat and a Bush Republican. The only noticeable difference was social policy
Ben Shapiro amuses me – the mug shot was unnecessary but that’s the normal process of booking and obtaining bail. To skip this because he was recognisable would create a two-tiered justice system. Giullani used to perp walk Democratic politicians in handcuffs when he was a DA. The sheriff was being nice – in and out, with pre-processing only took 30 mins or so.
It is a dark day in American history when a person refuses to accept the results and attempts to overthrow the election. Gore and Clinton may have whined and complained but when the legal means were exhausted they didn’t try different means. Thankfully a grand jury saw the evidence and made a decision, hopefully the trial will take place before elections so people can make an informed choice.
Does anyone think young black men will identify with a rich trust fund baby who rarely accepts responsibility? Who receives preferential treatment even in Fulton county? Who publicly went after the Central Park Five even after they were declared innocent?
It’s that type of naivety that led FOX and Republicans play the Oliver Anthony song at the debates. They don’t understand they are the elite and their policies over the last 50 years have created the poverty in rural and small town America. Btw, I like the song – my kind of country music as opposed to Nashville or Tyler Swift.
Dj – I may have strayed from the Reformed faith but the T in TULIP is still there; total depravity of humanity.
NJ – Incidents I’ve read indicate medical necessary abortions for the mother’s physical health has been limited or denied. A Texas woman testified to that effect in Congress (Cruz left the room). Apparently the delay resulted in her being unable to conceive again. The delay was due to the lack of Texas doctors willing to do the procedure due to the new law.
Its extremely rare for abortions to be performed after 24 weeks. The lack of doctors and the high insurance cost make it almost impossible. Even in Canada, with no criminal law on abortion, one can have difficulty accessing abortions after 12 to 24 weeks depending on the province and the provider. Less than 1% of abortions in Canada occur after 21 weeks.
If its any consolation – abortion rates are in a continuous downward trend. Pro life won the moral argument; however, they risk losing it if they employ the law.
Head over to CO….”we’re” so compassionate….except to the baby..
Surgical Abortions Information
Offered after 18.6 weeks
Procedures done after 18.6 weeks can be done over a course of 1-2 consecutive clinic visits. This procedure consists of dilation of the cervix followed by the removal of pregnancy with a combination of using instruments (dilation and evacuation—D&E) and vacuum aspiration. It has a 99% chance of successfully ending the pregnancy with minimal disruption to patients’ lives. After an ultrasound confirms your length of pregnancy, you will be given Misoprostol before the procedure begins. This medication dilates the vagina to make the procedure easier and minimize discomfort. A couple of hours after you’ve taken the Misoprostol, you’ll be put under anesthesia and your trained, experienced doctor will use medical equipment to safely evacuate the uterus.
HRW @7:59 – Yup. Though the theology is a bit nuanced, in that it doesn’t mean people are as bad as they possibly can be (thankfully). But that, yes, we are flawed.

The lawsuit was filed in the Second Circuit Court and the case number is 2CCV-23-0000238.
The lawsuit alleges that the Defendants acted negligently by failing to power down their electrical equipment despite a National Weather Service Red Flag Warning on August 7th. The lawsuit further alleges HECO’s energized and downed power lines ignited dry fuel such as grass and brush, causing the fires. The lawsuit also alleges failure to maintain the system and power grid, which caused the systemic failures starting three different fires on August 8th.
Of course, the lawsuit mentions climate change: “The great threat of hurricanes and their attendant high wind gusts regularly loom over the State of Hawai‘i. A number of hurricanes endanger the state each year. Climate change makes hurricanes more powerful and ferocious, greatly increasing the peril for Hawai‘i, statewide.”
Yes, let’s give the defendants an excuse. “We couldn’t help it. Men made the climate change, and the hurricanes got stronger!”

“Environmentalists Sue US Forest Service Over Plans to Thin Forest around Big Bear
Hopefully, the water officials in the Big Bear area will allow resources to be used when the inevitable wildfire does break out.”
https://legalinsurrection.com/2023/08/environmentalists-sue-us-forest-service-over-plans-to-thin-forest-around-big-bear/
“I classify the Maui wildfire as the first woke-cause disaster.
Unfortunately, California may be the site of the second one. Environmental groups are suing the US Forest Service for plans to thin about 13,000 acres of forest area around Big Bear.
A U.S. Forest Service project aims to thin what officials call an overgrown forest, although the plan is being met with resistance by several environmental groups.”

“In order do do prescribed burns, Forest Service officials also must jump through California’s massive regulatory hoops. Forest Service burn boss Christina Barba shared her experience on attempting to do prescribed burns in the Big Bear area in the 2021 season.
Next on the list of obstacles in Barba’s way is air quality. In the eyes of the California Air Resources Board (CARB), Big Bear and the nearby Inland Empire are part of the greater Los Angeles area. When smoggy skies in places like Fontana or Pasadena don’t meet the national clean air standard, local air quality officials can say no to Barba’s plans up until noon the day before a prescribed burn. In Big Bear, where the skies are usually clear, it’s difficult to tell when that will happen.
“We share an air basin with Los Angeles and the entire Inland Empire. So, because the Inland Empire has ozone or some days they have more [pollution] than they should, it shuts down burning in the entire basin,” she said. “We lost about five burn days that way.”
Hopefully, the water officials in the Big Bear area will allow resources to be used when the inevitable wildfire does break out. Then, at least, California may be able to stave off a massive tragedy caused by eco-activism and over-regulation.”

#USELESS GOP
“The GOP Without A MAGA Agenda Looks Like The Democratic Party
A new GOP administration would look like the Biden administration, except for a few changes to appeal to the religious right.”
https://tippinsights.com/the-gop-without-a-maga-agenda-looks-like-the-democratic-party/
“The remaining six candidates looked unserious and did not appear to have a strategy to help solve America’s and the world’s biggest problems. They were all eager for the job but, other than possibly Ron DeSantis, whose biggest political accomplishment has been in turning Florida deep-red, did not instill any confidence that they could become an effective leader of the Free World.
The debate continued for two hours, each candidate reciting practiced lines. But many of the responses were remarkably similar to those that you hear from the Democrats.
Abortion. On abortion, only North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis agreed that the matter has now irreversibly and correctly moved to the states. Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said that a federal ban was impractical (meaning it was a process issue because the measure couldn’t get 60 Senate votes) but did not appreciate the elegance of the Supreme Court decision when it ruled based on the supremacy of the Tenth Amendment. Mike Pence wants a six-week federal ban; Tim Scott wants a 15-week federal ban. Both sounded like Democrats arguing for federal control of a state issue.
Federal debt. No candidate spoke convincingly about how they would solve the country’s massive debt problem, now inching towards $50 trillion in ten years. Pence avoided answering a question about how the debt ballooned during his time as VP. Instead, he cautioned that the Trump tax cuts were about to sunset in 2025 and that he would irresponsibly extend them without saying how he would pay for them. No one even raised the issue of entitlement reform, with only a few talking about cuts to discretionary spending, which accounts for less than 15% of the budget.
Election integrity. No one addressed what caused hundreds of thousands to march in Washington on January 6, 2021. No one complimented the many GOP states that have passed election integrity reform laws since 2020. By staying away from the issue, they looked like the average Democrat who insists that a whole slew of 2020 election irregularities (no-excuse absentee ballots, drop-boxes, insufficient signature validation, late acceptance of ballots, illegal Zuckbucks-type contributions, etc.) does not merit attention.
Law and order. While there were comments about the idiocy of defunding the police and fentanyl, no one spoke about the disaster in the summer of 2020 when race riots killed four times as many people as on January 6. No one had a plan to rid American urban areas of homelessness, abject poverty, unhygienic conditions, and drug abuse, other than to argue for more police. We know that stepped-up law enforcement alone will not address the issue.
Big Tech and misinformation. Gov. DeSantis was most comfortable discussing how Florida dealt with school closings and mask mandates. But nearly everyone else seemed more like Democrats. No one challenged COVID’s origins; no one declared that it was wrong for the government to work with Big Tech to suppress meaningful dialog under the garb of misinformation. No one criticized the 51 intelligence officers who deliberately helped sway the election to Biden.
Ukraine and foreign policy. The moderators shockingly did not bring up Ukraine until after the debate’s first hour. No candidate addressed why Russia did not attack Ukraine when President Trump was in office. No one discussed the risk that the Russia-Ukraine war could escalate to World War III. No candidate assured Americans about nuclear weapons. Pence, Christie, and Haley continued the Democratic establishment position that supporting Ukraine was in America’s national security interests, falsely asserting that Putin would invade other NATO countries if he were not stopped. No one discussed the rise of the BRICS countries or how they would take steps to ensure that the dollar remains the world’s dominant currency.
Deep State and Lawfare. Other than Tim Scott, Ramaswamy, and DeSantis, no candidate spoke about the weaponization of the DOJ. No one talked about how the Deep State triggered the Russia-Russia-Russia hoax that crippled the first two years of the Trump administration. No debater acknowledged that, based on what we now know about the Biden family’s dealings in Ukraine, Trump’s first impeachment was unwarranted. No candidate offered that regarding January 6, Trump was already punished -being impeached a second time and acquitted by the Senate – so pressing criminal charges against a political opponent was unAmerican.
The modern GOP is firmly uniparty and indistinguishable from the Washington Democrats and the Beltway types. Without a MAGA agenda, a new GOP administration would essentially look like the Biden administration, except for a few changes to appeal to the religious right.”

“The Charge is the Fraud”
https://americanmind.org/salvo/the-charge-is-the-fraud/
“The indictments of Donald Trump are tissue thin and intended only to harass him and disrupt the 2024 election.
The legal claims stipulated in Jack Smith’s latest indictment are spurious, constitutionally unfounded, and patently unlawful. The overriding theory of Smith’s case is that Donald Trump conspired to defraud the United States and obstruct an official election proceeding as president. The Smith indictment further stipulates a “conspiracy against rights,” which again goes to the President’s alleged scheme to knowingly conspire to deprive Americans of their right to vote and have their votes counted fairly. As will be discussed below, each one of these claims are easily discreditable, and have no basis whatsoever in law or fact.
Under count one, 18 U.S. Code § 371, the United States improperly brought a criminal charge for fraud using a statute that the Supreme Court has circumscribed repeatedly over many years to apply specifically to financial crimes only. Thus, no matter how many times Jack Smith insists and repeatsthat President Trump “knowingly” deceived the American people of election fraud does not make it true. Furthermore, Jack Smith does exactly what he accused President Trump and his cadre of “co-conspirators” of doing in his indictment: by “reverse engineering” statutes and shoehorning them into criminal statutes for which they were never intended, Smith manifests wholly novel and ahistorical legal theories, out of thin air, without even a gesture to the countervailing historical and legal record for which they were originally designed and to which they have only ever been applied by courts.
Even under the broader definition of “defraud”—i.e. in the anomalous instances where this statute might be applied outside of the financial crimes context—there is still no basis for these particular charges. It will be impossible for the prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the President was working to “interfere with or obstruct one of [the government’s] lawful functions by deceit, craft, or trickery, or by means that are dishonest,” since President Trump always was—on the advice of competent counsel—following the constitutionally-permissible and lawful avenues to challenge the election. (United States v. Nersesian, 824 F.2d 1294, 1313 [2d Cir. 1987].)
Similarly, the charge under 18 U.S.C. § 241, a Reconstruction-era statute under which Douglas Mackey was recently convicted for tweeting that Hillary Clinton supporters could text their votes instead of voting at the polls, presupposes that the actions taken by the President were dishonest in nature. The Supreme Court read into this statute the requirement of a specific intent to deprive another of a right or interfere with another’s rights. See United States v. Guest, 383 U.S. 745. For the same reasons as above, such a burden cannot possibly be proven. President Trump was acting under his belief that the election was improperly conducted and took the steps necessary within the bounds of the Constitution to challenge the results.
With all constitutional arguments, we should begin with the language from the document itself. Paragraph two of Article II, Section I provides as follows:
Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector. [Emphasis added.]
What should be apparent, even by just a cursory reading of the text, is that, contrary to widely-held belief, there is no constitutional requirement of state legislatures to provide for choosing electors by popular election. Quite the contrary: as John Eastman persuasively argued in his legal analysis submitted to the President on November 5, 2020, in the early history of the republic “most state legislatures selected the state’s presidential electors themselves.” Only after 1824 did the majority of state legislatures begin choosing electors by popular election. However, that change did not in any way, shape, or form transform the fundamental plenary – i.e., unqualified – power by state legislatures to make a determination of how electors can be chosen.
This position was reaffirmed in the decision, McPherson v. Blacker, 146 U.S. 1, 35 (1892), in which the Supreme Court held: “whatever provisions may be made by statute, or by the state constitution, to choose electors by the people, there is no doubt of the right of the legislature to resume the power at any time.” This view was upheld in more recent times in Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. at 104 (2000), wherein the Court said: “The State, of course, after granting the franchise in the special context of Article II, can take back the power to appoint electors.”
Eastman elaborates the undisputable view that if state election law procedures are ignored or flagrantly violated, as was the case in the 2020 general election, the Legislature has the duty to exercise its plenary power over the administration of election procedures. Here again, it is appropriate to quote him at length:
To be sure, “at any time” would likely not allow the Legislature to pick its own slate of electors after the results of a fair election which had been conducted pursuant to the Legislature’s existing statutory procedures, merely on the grounds that the Legislature would have preferred a different outcome … But such is not the case when the existing procedures were not followed, and when significant statistical anomalies raise serious questions about whether the election was fair. In such cases, the “manner” for choosing electors set out by the Legislature was not followed; the constitutional default of the Legislature exercising its plenary power – or, rather, resuming that power – is therefore again at the forefront.
So, as Eastman notes, the question becomes under what circumstances is the Legislature permitted to select its own, alternative slate of fair electors consistent with their constitutionally prescribed plenary power. Both the text of the Constitution and relevant statutory authorities, such as Section 2 of Title 8, provide that the Legislature has plenary power for choosing electors – which is the constitutional default. (Art. II, Section 1 of the Constitution reads as follows: “Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.”) Whenever the method for choosing electors fails to comply with the procedures expressly outlined by the Legislature, both the Constitution and Section 2 of Title 8 authorizes the Legislature to appoint electors or craft an alternative method for appointing the State’s slate of electors, again, in accordance with the Legislature’s plenary power.
As Eastman elaborates in his second memorandum, numerous “important state election laws were altered or dispensed with altogether in key swing states and/or cities and counties.” These laws were designed to reduce election fraud. So, the fact that they were dispensed with in the lead-up to the 2020 general election is especially problematic from a constitutional perspective. Among the more notable state laws changed, which were fleshed out in greater detail in an earlier article discussing the evidence of election fraud, included a Georgia law that “altered signature verification requirements via an unauthorized settlement agreement.” (See Trump v. Kemp et al. [N.D. Ga., filed Dec. 31]). In Pennsylvania, the violations were even more egregious. Again, here it is appropriate to quote Eastman’s findings verbatim: “Following a collusive suit brought by the League of Women Voters against the Democrat Secretary of the Commonwealth seeking to require that absentee ballots not passing the signature verification process be given notice and an opportunity to cure, the Secretary unilaterally abolished the signature verification process altogether, issuing a directive that not only was it not required, it was not even permitted. She then filed an emergency writ action with the partisan-elected Supreme Court to ratify her elimination of that statutory requirement.” (See Trump v. Boockvar et al., [S. Ct., filed Dec. 21].)
Other notable violations were observed across other key battleground states. In Wisconsin, for example, as noted in two cert petitions, Trump v. Biden, filed on Dec. 29, and Trump v. Wisc. Elections Comm’n, filed on Dec. 30, the state used unmanned drop boxes, employed so-called “human drop boxes,” and allowed election officials to add missing information to absentee voter or witness declarations, all contrary to law. In Michigan, absentee ballots were mailed out to every registered voter and remote drop boxes were established only in heavily Democratic precincts, also in express violation of statutory procedure. Other evidence of fraud was seen in states like Arizona and Nevada, which reduced election registration and signature inspection requirements, making their elections more susceptible to fraud as a result, again in violation of federal law. These are just a select handful of a mountain of illegalities that rendered irreparable damage upon election integrity, and for which, as a result of that fraud, would lawfully permit state Legislatures to exercise their plenary power, as is their constitutional right, to make post-election changes to the appointment of electors, with the aim towards ensuring a fair election.
At the heart of the obstruction charge rests an ongoing dispute surrounding the applicability of the statute in question, 18 U.S.C. § 1512©, to the case against President Trump, as well as over three hundred January 6th protestors. While a DC Circuit panel upheld 2-1 the applicability of the charge for January 6th defendants, reversing a district court’s dismissal of the charge, it is likely that the statute will be reviewed again, potentially by the Supreme Court. In his dissent, Judge Katsas asserts several compelling reasons supporting the view that the government took an overbroad view in its construction of the relevant statute (which was originally part of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, designed to mitigate the disastrous effects of widespread accounting fraud in the aftermath of the Enron scandal, an issue completely unrelated to alleged January 6th criminality): “

Abortion… the ending of a life…might be between a woman and her doctor but there are many more involved. A baby, a Dad, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles…
And to suggest a doctor could get in trouble performing a D&C after a miscarriage is indeed a red herring…
I am saddened and astounded there are those among us who have the mindset to believe it to be well and good for a baby’s life to be ended one second before exiting the womb as a whole viable living precious human to be held in the arms of someone who cares… oh the darkness lurking in the heart of man….

AJ – Trump challenged 200 years of tradition in the peaceful transfer of power. He questioned the outcome, lawyers launched challenges in court, and were denied. He exhausted all legal remedies so he and others sought to overturn the election through false electors, opening voting machines, asking a secy of state to find votes, etc. This never occurred in a US election – this broke tradition and convention and now consequences have occurred. A grand jury decided the evidence was sufficient for trial; the rules are being followed.
I would agree that there is a two tiered system though. Trump was in and out of the jail in record time. Yes, he had a mug shot but most of his paperwork was prearranged prior to arrival. If he had to wait like a regular criminal, he would have been there for a few hours and they would have weighed as opposed to taking his word that he was 215lbs. I’m 215lbs and 6 feet; I may have a dad bod but nowhere close to his body shape.

If federal debt is important to MAGA, why did Trump champion tax cuts to the wealthy which increased the deficit and the debt? If the MAGA Republicans truly wanted fiscal conservatism they would demand taxes revert to the level seen in the Clinton administration – the last president to balance the budget.
The Republicans have spent the last four years bashing the FBI, DOJ and other law enforcement agencies. They are no longer the party of law and order.
Russia first attacked Ukraine in 2104. The war was limited to the Donbass and Crimea and continued off and on since that time, throughout Trump’s presidency. It was pretty much ignored by the West. As Ukraine slowly moved into the EU orbit, Putin decided a quick coup to replace Zelensky was in order. He failed. And the current war is the result. None of this has anything to do with US domestic politics or who was president. It had more to do with Ukraine’s aspiration to orient itself with the EU and not Russia.

Ben Shapiro amuses me – the mug shot was unnecessary but that’s the normal process of booking and obtaining bail. To skip this because he was recognisable would create a two-tiered justice system. Giullani used to perp walk Democratic politicians in handcuffs when he was a DA. The sheriff was being nice – in and out, with pre-processing only took 30 mins or so.
It is a dark day in American history when a person refuses to accept the results and attempts to overthrow the election. Gore and Clinton may have whined and complained but when the legal means were exhausted they didn’t try different means. Thankfully a grand jury saw the evidence and made a decision, hopefully the trial will take place before elections so people can make an informed choice.
Does anyone think young black men will identify with a rich trust fund baby who rarely accepts responsibility? Who receives preferential treatment even in Fulton county? Who publicly went after the Central Park Five even after they were declared innocent?
It’s that type of naivety that led FOX and Republicans play the Oliver Anthony song at the debates.

NJ – Incidents I’ve read indicate medical necessary abortions for the mother’s physical health has been limited or denied. A Texas woman testified to that effect in Congress (Cruz left the room). Apparently the delay resulted in her being unable to conceive again. The delay was due to the lack of Texas doctors willing to do the procedure due to the new law.
Its extremely rare for abortions to be performed after 24 weeks. The lack of doctors and the high insurance cost make it almost impossible. Even in Canada, with no criminal law on abortion, one can have difficulty accessing abortions after 12 to 24 weeks depending on the province and the provider. Less than 1% of abortions in Canada occur after 21 weeks.
If its any consolation – abortion rates are in a continuous downward trend. Pro life won the moral argument; however, they risk losing it if they employ the law.

Surgical Abortions Information
Offered after 18.6 weeks
Procedures done after 18.6 weeks can be done over a course of 1-2 consecutive clinic visits. This procedure consists of dilation of the cervix followed by the removal of pregnancy with a combination of using instruments (dilation and evacuation—D&E) and vacuum aspiration. It has a 99% chance of successfully ending the pregnancy with minimal disruption to patients’ lives. After an ultrasound confirms your length of pregnancy, you will be given Misoprostol before the procedure begins. This medication dilates the vagina to make the procedure easier and minimize discomfort. A couple of hours after you’ve taken the Misoprostol, you’ll be put under anesthesia and your trained, experienced doctor will use medical equipment to safely evacuate the uterus.
