Chuck Schumer just exposed Mitch McConnell’s strategy to betray conservatives in Congress

0

Mitch McConnell has a lengthy history of betraying conservative voters in back room deals with Democrats. He will go to any length to stay in power.

And Chuck Schumer just exposed Mitch McConnell’s strategy to betray conservatives in Congress.

Despite Democrats holding a razor-thin Senate majority during Joe Biden’s first two years in office, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) failed to utilize his clout against Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

Senator McConell cashed in on socialist spending sprees on left-wing special interests, the Green New Deal, and corporate assistance.

He even delivered President Biden a big victory by striking a compromise with Senator Schumer to enact the nation’s largest gun control law in about 30 years.

However, in the coming weeks, McConnell appears to be going to deliver Democrats yet another significant triumph on even more socialist spending sprees, which just so happened to be the root of the present inflationary crisis hitting working-class Americans.

Senator Schumer previously stated on CNN that he planned to “sit down with Mitch McConnell” behind closed doors to discuss how Democrats would go about forcing even more of Biden’s hardline socialist agenda through.

According to the Majority Leader’s most recent Senate floor address, that secret meeting has already occurred, deals have been struck, and Democrats are in the midst of a frenzied effort to enact as much of their socialist program as possible before Republicans take over the House in late January.

After 12 Republicans defected and sided with Democrats, the Senate passed a bill requiring the recognition of gay marriage on Tuesday.

Senator Schumer hailed RINOs who sold out and voted to force same-sex marriage on the country during a floor speech on Wednesday morning.

RINOs, according to Schumer, are ready to negotiate even more deals and “continue working together on difficult issues in the next Congress.”

“I hope that yesterday’s vote is a signal that both parties can keep working together on difficult issues in the next Congress,” Schumer said. “If our Republican colleagues can shake off the MAGA wing of their Party that is holding Republicans down, we can get a lot done. And it’s obvious to everyone there are many Republican Senators who don’t embrace MAGA.”

“We want to keep working with you,” Schumer said of the RINOs.

The Senate Majority Leader then revealed that he and Mitch McConnell had already met behind closed doors to arrange the next RINO surrender – another omnibus budget bill to prevent the federal government from running out of cash and shutting down in two weeks.

“Though we have different views of what should be in it, both Leader McConnell and I have said that an omnibus is the best way for supporting our troops, supporting our allies in Ukraine, and keeping Americans safe at home and abroad,” Schumer added.

Senator Schumer claims that Senator McConnell has decided to buckle and accept whatever big spending bill Democrats put forward in the next two weeks, regardless of what it contains or the impact it has on inflation.

Mitch McConnell is busy stabbing conservatives in the back rather than fighting Joe Biden’s socialist agenda.

Donald Trump’s huge election decision caught everyone off guard

0

Donald Trump plans to run for President in 2024. But he’s having to make some difficult decisions to make.

And Donald Trump’s huge election decision caught everyone off guard.

The Georgia runoff election on December 6 is the final race in this year’s Midterm elections.

After neither candidate received more than 50% of the vote in the November election, incumbent Democrat Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker will face battle again on December 6.

Big-name politicians from both parties, including Ted Cruz (R-TX) and former President Barack Obama, are flocking to Georgia to campaign for the key Senate seat.

Former President Donald Trump has been the most visible supporter of his preferred candidates on the campaign trail this time.

Former NFL player Herschel Walker received Trump’s endorsement and campaigned alongside him before of the state’s primary election.

With another election in Georgia on the horizon, the question became whether Trump will hold another rally in support of Walker before the runoff.

Trump looks to be staying out of the Georgia runoff by avoiding any in-person campaign events for Walker.

The Walker campaign and Trump reached an agreement on the move.

Walker is instead relying on Georgia Governor Brian Kemp as a key surrogate on the campaign tour.

Kemp defeated Walker by 5 points in the November election and is providing his campaign apparatus to help with the runoff.

“The Governor’s been the most important surrogate we could have asked for,” a source with Walker’s campaign told POLITICO.

While Democrats retained control of the Senate during the midterm elections in November, the Georgia contest will determine whether the Upper Chamber is once again a 50-50 tie or a 51-49 Democratic majority.

A Walker victory would have far-reaching consequences in the Senate next year.

A 50-50 tie means that the two parties share control of committees.

This might stall President Joe Biden’s radical judicial and executive branch nominations.

Despite his choice not to attend Walker’s rally in person, Trump is still working to advance his campaign.

During his Presidential campaign launch, Trump encouraged his fans to vote for Walker by assisting him with online fundraising.

Instead of doing a campaign rally, Trump intends to hold a telephone rally for Walker just before the election to energize the Republican base.

Walker claimed in an interview that Trump’s lack of an in-person campaign rally didn’t bother him and that the former President was going out of his way to support him.

“You know, President Trump has always been in my corner ― he still is in my corner, and he’s been doing other things for me, and everyone has been doing a lot of things for me,” Walker said. “Tonight we just got out of a fundraiser with Governor [Brian] Kemp … President Trump is doing just as much for me.”

Herschel Walker’s victory in the Georgia Senate runoff could soften the blow of a poor midterm election for conservatives.

The Supreme Court handed Democrats a major election loss with this critical decision

0

With every year, Democrats are growing more and more radical in their approach to the election cycle. They think they should win every election and any other outcome is funny business.

But the Supreme Court just handed Democrats a major election loss with this critical decision.

Democrats launched a lawsuit in six states to invalidate the Congressional maps: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Ohio, and Texas.

Republicans control these states, and during the redistricting process, they constructed legislative districts that mirrored the state’s Republican lean.

Democrats are continuously attempting to rig the redistricting process by utilizing partisan judges to force Democrat-friendly designs on Republican-controlled states.

That’s what the Left tried to do by claiming Republicans redrew Texas boundaries with racist intent in order to make districts more white and hence more Republican.

“At the center of the dispute is Senate District 10, which is centered in Fort Worth in Tarrant County. Challengers argued the map was redrawn to make it more Republican and ‘more Anglo,’” CNN reported.

An appeals court dismissed the Democrats’ petition, noting the lack of proof that Republicans in the Texas state legislature redrew districts with racist intent.

“A panel of three judges on a district court conducted four days of hearings and held although the new state Senate map may ‘disproportionately affect minority voters’ in Tarrant County, and although the legislature may have given ‘pretextual reasons’ for its redistricting decisions, the challengers could point to no evidence indicating that the legislature’s ‘true intent was racial,’” CNN added.

Leftists filed an appeal with the Supreme Court.

The Justices, however, dismissed this challenge and ended the case.

Former Obama Attorney General Eric Holder, who now leads the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, emphasized that this case is critical to Democrats’ efforts to retake the majority in 2024.

Holder warned that if Democrats win this case, left-wing judges will be able to impose favorable maps on red states, putting Democrats back in control in 2024.

“I certainly think that were we to win the majority of those cases [and keep the seats they currently hold], Democrats would be in control of the House of Representatives,” Holder stated.

“I don’t think there’s any question about that.”

Marina Jenkins, the National Democratic Redistricting Committee’s director of litigation and policy, projected that the case may earn the Democrats 13 seats in the House of Representatives.

With Republicans having only a nine-seat majority, Democrats would be able to recapture power should that be the case.

Chuck Schumer is sweating bullets over this news coming out of Georgia

0

The midterm elections were a mixed bag for both major parties. But Democrats are desperate to win a 51st seat in the Senate Chamber.

That’s why Chuck Schumer is sweating bullets over this news coming out of Georgia.

Democrats are still ecstatic about the 2022 midterm elections.

While the GOP did reclaim the U.S. House, it was only by the skin of their teeth; in fact, they will have a smaller majority than Democrats did prior to the election.

Democrats also picked up two governor seats in 2022.

And, owing to Vice President Kamala Harris’ tie-breaking vote, Democrats are assured of maintaining control of the Senate.

There remains one U.S. Senate contest that has yet to be decided.

In the Peach State’s main election, incumbent Democrat Sen. Raphael Warnock made a dramatic comeback thanks to early and mail-in ballots, leading Republican rival Herschel Walker by around 35,000 votes – or less than one point.

Warnock received 49.4% of the vote, while Walker received 48.5%.

However, in order to win an election in Georgia, a candidate must get at least 50% plus one vote.

That means Walker and Warnock will face battle in a runoff election on December 6.

The runoff affords the former Heisman Trophy winner the opportunity to rally in overtime and maintain the Senate tied 50-50.

While Democrats will retain control of the Senate in either case, a victory for the All-Pro running back would mean an equal split of Republicans and Democrats on Senate committees, giving the GOP the ability to defeat some Democrat measures before they reach the floor for a vote.

If Warnock wins, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer will have complete control of committee appointments.

With so much at stake, both the Warnock and Walker campaigns are actively recruiting Brain Kemp voters.

While neither candidate received a clear majority in the Peach State Senate contest, Republican incumbent Governor Brian Kemp won re-election by 7.5 points, or around 300,000 votes, over election-denier Stacey Abrams.

If the former National Champion can sway Kemp voters who voted for Warnock the first time, he could pull off an upset victory in overtime on December 6.

Kemp, for one, is attempting to assist his partymate.

The Governor has produced a commercial for Walker, which was first broadcast around the state over Thanksgiving.

The commercial is part of the Senate Leadership Fund’s $14.2 million television, radio, and digital advertising campaign.

Kemp’s ad begins with a footage of reporters asking President Biden if he will alter anything in the next two years, to which Biden responds, “Nothing, I’m not going to change anything fundamentally.”

“Families are struggling because of Biden’s inflation, and Washington won’t change unless we make them,” Kemp notes in the advertisement. “Georgia is doing better than the rest of the country because we stood up for hard-working families. Herschel Walker will vote for Georgia, not be another rubber stamp for Joe Biden. That’s why I’m backing Herschel, and I hope you’ll join me in voting for him too.”

Given their divergent connections with former President Donald Trump, Kemp’s backing for Walker’s campaign is intriguing.

Walker was an early fan of Trump.

Whereas the 45th President of the United States fought tirelessly to defeat Kemp in the Republican primary, which Kemp handily won.

Republicans are expecting that a Kemp-Walker combination will result in a touchdown drive in the dying minutes of the game.

According to a new AARP poll, the incumbent has a 4-point lead over the former Georgia Bulldog.

Walker received 47% of the vote, while Warnock received 51%.

However, Warnock’s advantage is within the survey’s abnormally large 4.4-point margin of error.

The Georgia U.S. Senate runoff is on Tuesday, December 6, however even in the runoff, early voting and absentee voting began on November 28.

A Republican governor just ordered an investigation into this enormous electoral fraud

0

Another day, another investigation. An important race won by a Democrat is now added to the rolling list of election issues.

And now a Republican governor just ordered an investigation into this enormous electoral fraud

Governor Greg Abbott has requested that the Texas Secretary of State and law enforcement initiate an inquiry into voting equipment malfunctions and election fraud in Harris County, a Democratic stronghold.

“I’m calling on the Secretary of State, the Attorney General’s Office, and the Texas Rangers to initiate investigations into allegations of improprieties in the way that the 2022 elections were conducted in Harris County,” Governor Abbott declared.

“The allegations of election improprieties in our state’s largest county may result from anything ranging from malfeasance to blatant criminal conduct.”

“Voters in Harris County deserve to know what happened,” the Governor continued.

“Integrity in the election process is essential. To achieve that standard, a thorough investigation is warranted.”

On Election Day, voting machines were down in Houston neighborhoods disproportionately populated by Hispanic Americans.

“The problems at the site, east of downtown, began before the polls opened: an election clerk quit and the voting machines were not set up, county election officials said,” The New York Times reported.

Long lineups and frustration among voters resulted from the machines’ failure.

A judge ordered polling places to stay open for an extra hour after the polls closed at 7:00 p.m., but those who waited may not have their votes tallied.

“But the votes cast during that extra hour may not count: State officials asked the Texas Supreme Court to intervene and stay the order, and the court did so,” The Times’ report continued.

“Any provisional ballots cast after 7 p.m. will be set aside, according to the county elections administrator.”

In the Harris County Judge’s race, left-wing incumbent Linda Hidalgo eked out a 17,000-vote victory against Republican rival Alexandra Mealer despite repeatedly attempting to defy Governor Abbott in order to implement COVID mandates.

Of course, that was hardly the first instance of Democrats coming out on top in a district where voting machines were down on Election Day.

After “printer and tabulator issues” impacted 48% of Maricopa County polling stations on Election Day and were not fixed until at least 3:00 P.M., Democrat Katie Hobbs defeated Republican candidate Kari Lake by 17,000 votes in Arizona’s Gubernatorial Election.

On Election Day, election administration in America was once again a complete disaster.

These mistakes and malfunctions must be corrected if Americans are to have faith in the outcome of their elections.

A top Republican is blowing the whistle on Joe Biden’s military takeover

0

Joe Biden wants to completely transform the America you know and love. He’ll need some foot soldiers for his radical plot.

And a top Republican is blowing the whistle on Joe Biden’s military takeover.

President Joe Biden is leveraging diversity, equality, and inclusion (DEI) to instill consciousness throughout the federal system.

President Biden signed a broad executive order last year to make the federal government a “model” for “diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.”

DEI is the moniker given by left-wing radicals to the woke crap that they are attempting to instill in every institution in the country, such as Critical Race Theory and radical gender ideology.

Even the military is succumbing to the Biden administration’s enormous DEI push across the federal government.

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Representative Chip Roy (R-TX) have condemned this risky attempt to use the military as a left-wing social experiment.

The Republican duo claimed in a new report that DEI programs in the military are leaving it poorly unfit to do its mission of safeguarding the country.

“The world is a dangerous place, and the Biden administration’s insanity is eroding our greatest source of security in it,” the report said.

The military is suffering from low morale and continues to fall short of recruiting targets since the Biden administration began its DEI effort.

“Our military’s singular purpose is to ‘provide for the common defense’ of our nation,” the report continued. “It cannot be turned into a left-wing social experiment.”

While soldiers are expected to safeguard the country, the military is utilizing DEI to damage the country during training.

“It cannot be used as a cudgel against America itself,” the report stated. “And it cannot be paralyzed by fear of offending the sensibilities of Ivy League faculty lounges or progressive pundits.”

Critical Race Theory is being taught to students at military academies under the pretense of helping future warriors comprehend the country’s allegedly “racist” past and present.

To avoid offending anyone, the military is also emphasizing that soldiers use the preferred pronouns of their fellow soldiers.

Senator Rubio stated that imposing wokeness on military puts the country in jeopardy.

“Rather than making the case for American greatness and protecting our nation, the military is parroting woke nonsense,” Rubio told Fox News. “It’s dumb, it doesn’t work, and it’s dangerous. We need to spend more time thinking about how to counter Chinese aircraft carriers, and less time thinking about pronouns.”

The emphasis on DEI has also permeated the military’s Special Operations Command, which is in charge of the nation’s elite special forces groups.

As part of President Biden’s executive order, Special Operations Command was required to submit a Diversity and Inclusion Strategic Plan.

In an increasingly perilous world, Joe Biden prioritizes wokeness over American military capability.

Greg Abbott sent Joe Biden a letter that sent the White House into a frenzy

0

The Republican Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, has had enough of the Biden admin’s failures. Particularly when it comes to the southern border.

That’s why Greg Abbott just sent Joe Biden a letter that sent the White House into a total frenzy.

Governor Abbott has made news for his decision to deport illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C.

He has joined other Republican governors in targeting “sanctuary cities” ruled by Democrats with these buses.

Abbott is now upping the ante after easily winning reelection.

He started at the border, where he declared an invasion and sent troops to block the flow of migrants.

Along with his deployment, he wrote a letter to the Biden Administration in which he accused Biden of constitutional violations and laid all the blame on him.

Abbott penned in his letter, “Your sustained dereliction of duty compels Texas to invoke the powers reserved in Article I , § 10, Clause 3, which represents ‘an acknowledgement of the States’ sovereign interest in protecting their borders.’”

He shifted the blame back to Biden for putting ordinary Texans in this predicament.

“By opening our border to this record-breaking level of illegal immigration, you and your Administration are in violation of Article IV, § 4 of the U.S. Constitution,” Abbott said.

Abbott added that “in the more than 240 years of our great nation, no administration has done more than yours to place the States in ‘imminent danger’” and said that this is because of “policy decisions and refusal to deliver on the Article IV, § 4 guarantee.’

The US federal government is responsible for protecting state and federal boundaries as well as national sovereignty.

There is no justification for the state governments to ever reach this stage.

Abbott’s description of it as “absence of action by your Administration to secure the border” is the one thing he might have gotten wrong.

The majority of Americans are aware of ongoing efforts from the Biden admin, but their goals do not align with those of national security.

So the Biden admin is effectively working against the final goal of border security and peace.

According to Abbott, the federal government’s lack of response to the issue is “deafening.”

The so-called “border czar,” Kamala Harris, has never been to the border.

Abbott expresses his desire that they would do so so that they might have “a firsthand look at the chaos [they] have caused,” which he describes as “damning.”

He criticized the Biden policies, claiming they were the primary reason Texas had to employ its constitutional right to self-defense and that they had sparked “an unprecedented crisis of illegal immigration.”

The White House’s response to Abbott’s letter was inadequate.

They asserted that he was merely “vying for political relevance” and that Texas is “using asylum seekers escaping communism and law enforcement officials as political pawns.”

Coming from an administration that claimed its border patrol agents were spanking undocumented immigrants, this is a bold claim.

Americans won’t be duped again because they can see right through the lies.

George Soros scored a major victory that could sink conservatives in 2024

0

Republicans received some bad news. Democrats were couldn’t contain their excitement.

That’s because George Soros scored a major victory that could sink conservatives in 2024.

In 2016, Hillary Clinton received 65% of the vote in Miami-Dade County, Florida.

In 2020, however, former President Donald Trump changed the script, gaining 54% of the vote in the county to Joe Biden’s 46%.

And in the 2022 Midterms, Democrats faired even worse than many expected.

Thanks to Ron DeSantis’ leadership, the entire state of Florida swept red, solidifying itself as a red state stronghold.

DeSantis won by almost 20% in the entire state, beating his opponent Charlie Crist 59.4 – 40%.

And in Miami-Dade County, he won 55.3% of the vote compared to Crist’s 44%.

The bulk of Miami-Dade County’s population is Hispanic, and Democrats were concerned that they would be wiped out unless they could increase their margins among Latino voters.

Instead of examining the policies that are driving away Hispanic voters, such as support for woke indoctrination in schools, open borders, and the violent Black Lives Matter movement, Democrats concluded that their poor performance with Latinos in Florida was due to “misinformation” on Spanish-language radio.

To that purpose, a George Soros-linked entity attempted to buy a collection of Spanish-language stations, including the famed Radio Mambi, which serves as a home base for the Cuban exile population, a group that frequently votes Republican.

“A liberal group linked to billionaire George Soros has been cleared by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to purchase Spanish-language radio stations throughout the country, rekindling concerns that a “radical political agenda” will influence information provided to Hispanic voters,” Fox News reported.

“Miami’s iconic, Spanish-language conservative talk radio station Radio Mambi is one of the 18 stations the Soros-backed Latino Media Network will purchase from Televisa Univision for a reported $60 million.”

“Radio Mambi, which is historically linked to the Cuban exile community and offers an anti-communism view, will be controlled by liberals once the deal is finalized,” the report continued.

“Latino Media Network, which is partially financed by an investment group affiliated with Soros Fund Management, is controlled by Jess Morales Rocketto, a former Hillary for America and AFL-CIO employee, and former Obama White House staffer Stephanie Valencia.”

Conservatives accused Soros of buying these stations with the intention of converting them into propaganda factories for the Democratic Party, ensuring that Latino voters in Florida only hear programming favorable to the Left in the run-up to the 2024 election.

After Florida Governor Ron DeSantis won a landslide re-election with 57% of the Hispanic vote statewide, Soros’ purchase of Spanish-language radio stations took on extra significance.

Democrats are counting on Soros-owned Spanish-language stations to control the information Latino voters hear in order to enable Joe Biden – or anyone Democrats choose – win in two years.

Ilhan Omar exploded in rage after she was called out by this major Republican

0

House Democrat Ilhan Omar has been a controversial figure for years now. Her disgusting comments about Israel have put her in a ton of trouble before.

And Ilhan Omar utterly exploded in rage when she was called about by this high profile Republican.

Two of the most extreme leftists in Washington, D.C. are Congressman Adam Schiff of California and Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.

Omar is a prominent member of the anti-police funding movement and has a lengthy history of using anti-Semitic language.

Omar said on Twitter that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee was “all about the Benjamins” and compared both Israel and the US to the Taliban.

By promoting the fictitious Christopher Steele dossier that claimed the previous President was collaborating with Russia, Adam Schiff started the first witch hunt against Trump.

Schiff fabricated a transcript of a conversation between Trump and the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and read it aloud on the floor of the US House as though it actually took place.

Even during the first witch hunt, he was discovered instructing “whistleblower” witnesses during Soviet-style secret sessions held behind closed doors in a basement beneath the Capitol.

However, because Democrats have been in charge of Congress, Schiff and Omar have been spared from being held accountable for their deceit and despicable actions.

But when the new Congress convenes in January and Republicans take control of the Speaker’s Gavel, things will change.

Ilhan Omar and Adam Schiff will be kicked out of their committees, according to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy in an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News Channel’s Sunday Morning Futures.

“Adam Schiff, who lied to the American public time and again,” McCarthy began, before adding that “we will not allow him to be on the Intel committee either.”

He then addressed Ilhan Omar.

“Look, Congresswoman Omar, her anti-Semitic comments that have gone forward, we’re not going to allow her to be on Foreign Affairs, but we’re also going to stand up to what’s happening not just in the halls of Congress, but what’s happening to our higher education institutions, the antisemitism that’s going on on these campuses and other,” McCarthy declared.

McCarthy is, of course, merely vowing to administer the adage “dose of their own medicine” to Democrats.

According to McCarthy, “the Democrats have created a new thing where they’re picking and choosing who can be on committees,” as he stated in an interview with Breitbart News.

McCarthy was alluding to the way that Democrats decided to kick Republicans off their committees, such Marjorie Taylor Greene.

“Never in the history [of Congress] have you had the majority tell the minority who can be on committee,” McCarthy continued, before adding “but this is the new standard, which these Democrats have voted for.”

Additionally, McCarthy pledged to expel Representative Eric Swalwell from the intelligence community as a result of his extramarital relationship with a Communist Chinese spy.

Democrats aren’t accustomed to being forced to follow their own rules.

But when the GOP takes control of the U.S. House in January, they won’t have a choice.

President Biden has awful news for Americans about the economy

0

The state of the economy is one of the biggest sore points for the Biden administration. And Joe is only making it worse.

Now President Biden has even more awful news for Americans about the future of the economy.

Inflation is out of control, energy costs are skyrocketing, the stock and housing markets are collapsing, and economic growth is stalling.

The tremendous difficulties that Biden caused the nation, such as trillions of dollars in needless, wasteful spending on left-wing special interests, have the U.S. economy teetering on the verge of a severe recession.

While the economy is in trouble, President Biden has continually given reasons why nothing that happens is ever his responsibility or why it is the product of the radical left-wing ideology of the Democrats.

He made an attempt to pin the rise in inflation and gas prices on Russian President Vladmir Putin after the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out.

President Biden first referred to “Putin’s price hike” as the cause of the working class Americans’ rising cost of living.

Biden is now altering his economic stance in light of major Wall Street banks’ and business leaders’ forecasts of an impending recession.

Biden cautioned Americans during a press conference at the White House that the economy would see “setbacks” on the way to recovery.

“It’s going to take time to get inflation back to normal levels as we keep our job market strong, so we could see setbacks along the way — I don’t doubt that — but thus far we’re in good shape,” Biden noted.

President Biden’s messaging has abruptly changed now that the midterm elections are finished.

In the past, he had said that inflation was “transitory,” but now he says it has “peaked” and reduced prices are just around the way.

Biden attempted to claim that food store prices were “down slightly,” which is in direct opposition to his government’s own data as well as the firsthand knowledge of every working-class American who, unlike the majority of career politicians, does their own grocery shopping.

The cost of food in grocery stores has increased 12.4% since this time last year, according to the Biden Department of Labor’s most recent data on inflation.

President Biden has pledged that he is “laser focused” on reducing inflation and that the disastrously misnamed $740 billion “Inflation Reduction Act” will take effect in six weeks.

Spending hundreds of billions of public dollars on radical left-wing special interests’ wish lists—including green energy and Obamacare giveaways—while doing little to lower inflation—is known as the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act.”

Democrats exploited inflation as a selling point for the law to encourage more unpopular socialist spending.

Even Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who spoke during the bill’s debate, acknowledged that the legislation won’t have any impact on reducing inflation.

On Fox News, former Vice President Mike Pence ripped against President Biden’s misplaced economic confidence.

In the midterm elections, he claimed that one among the factors contributing to Republicans’ victory in the U.S. House majority was the Biden economy.

“What we are witnessing in the Biden administration — whether it be the runaway spending, whether it be flatlining defense spending, whether it be tax increases, driving a recession and inflation in this economy — one policy after another just seems almost intent on weakening America at home and abroad,” Pence explained. “It’s one of the reasons why we won back the House of Representatives.”

Joe Biden has run out of justifications for his economic shortcomings as a severe recession looms.

Merrick Garland was just smacked with this truth bomb by a former Trump official

0

Attorney General Merrick Garland is intensifying his anti-Trump crusade. He thought that appointing a special counsel would give him an advantage.

And Merrick Garland was just smacked with this truth bomb by a former Trump official.

With the appointment of a special counsel to handle the probe, Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland is outsourcing his legal witch hunt against former President Donald Trump.

Garland nominated Jack Smith, a political hack from the Obama administration, to conduct the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into the previous President’s alleged theft of sensitive materials from the White House on January 6.

The choice to press criminal charges against Trump by the Biden Justice Department now rests with Smith.

Because of Trump’s recent plan to run for president again, Attorney General Garland argued the move was in the “public’s interest.”

“Mr. Smith is the right choice to complete these matters in an even-handed and urgent manner,” Garland claimed.

In the Trump administration, Matt Whitaker served as acting Attorney General.

During an appearance on Newsmax, he explained why Garland appointed a special counsel for the Trump investigation.

Whitaker argued that establishing a special counsel provides the Justice Department with “cover” for the Trump inquiry, allowing the Biden administration to retain “political distance” from the investigation.

“Based on what we’re learning more and more about him, it just appears to be a political hatchet man that ultimately is still going to be responsible to the Attorney General, and the Attorney General is still going to be in charge of this investigation,” Whitaker said of special counsel Jack Smith.

Smith’s work during the Obama administration saw one of his prosecutions against a potential Republican presidential contender in 2012 dismissed by an unanimous Supreme Court decision.

Former Republican Governor Bob McDonnell was considered a potential possibility to oppose then-President Barack Obama in 2012 after a landslide victory in Virginia’s gubernatorial race in 2009.

Smith obtained a dubious conviction for public corruption against Governor McDonnell, which was later overturned by a majority Supreme Court judgment.

According to Whitaker, Smith’s approach to the Trump inquiry will not differ from Garland’s.

“He’s going to build a team that’s mostly going to be people that are already at the Department of Justice, and he’s going to use FBI agents that are already working on this case,” Whitaker predicted.

The appointment of a special counsel permits the Attorney General to dismiss any prospective charges against Trump and argue that they were the result of political bias.

“So, while it’s not lipstick on a pig, it’s really just Merrick Garland using his sophistry to try to make it look like there’s an independence of the special counsel,” Whitaker said.

With the appointment of a special counsel, Merrick Garland’s attempt to portray the Justice Department as non-political is already collapsing.

A shocking poll just showed who Donald Trump is losing to

0

Donald Trump is the first declared candidate in the 2024 election. However, Trump’s nomination will not clear the field of other Republican candidates.

And A shocking poll just showed who Donald Trump is losing to.

One of the big questions following the midterm elections was whether Donald Trump could keep his grip on the Republican Party.

After his favored candidates lost winnable Senate and Governor races, many on the right blamed Trump for the GOP’s dismal showing in the midterm elections.

On the other hand, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ 19-point landslide victory after pushing a conservative agenda on wokeness, illegal immigration, and COVID mandates demonstrated to Republicans that a conservative message resonates with swing voters and other groups that GOP candidates struggle to win.

Prior to the midterm elections, polling data showed Trump comfortably ahead of his Republican opponents.

That is no longer true.

A recent poll from Neighborhood Research and Media for Courageous Conservatives PAC in Iowa found DeSantis leading Trump by two points, 32% to 30%, in the crucial Iowa Caucus.

This represented a 56-point swing in DeSantis’ favor from last year, when Trump led 56% to 12% in a November 2021 poll conducted by Courageous Conservative PAC.

“With support barely half what it was a year ago in a time when DeSantis’ vote has nearly tripled, Trump becomes a severe underdog in the race,” pollster Rick Shaftan’s polling memo read.

According to Shaftan, Trump’s biggest drop in GOP support came from older women.

“President Trump’s support level has dropped 8 points since late June and 26 points in a year, with his biggest drop with women, especially older women. Trump led 62-8 with women a year ago with his lead now down to a point (28-27),” Shaftan continued.

Shaftan also stated that DeSantis won the most votes from men and very conservative people, who are the most likely to vote in a nomination process.

“DeSantis scored best with men and very conservative voters. With men DeSantis went from a 51-16 deficit to 36-21 in June to a 39-32 lead today. Among very conservative voters (60 percent of respondents this month, 59 percent in June and November 2021), Trump’s lead is down to one point (36-35) from a 62-13 lead a year ago and 46-17 in June,” Shaftan added.

For the first time since winning the Republican nomination in 2016, Trump confronts a real challenge to lead the Party.

Some Republicans believe it is past time to move on from Trump.

Others believe Trump is the best candidate to reclaim the presidency.

The most recent polling data reflects this division.
