Big victory for what’s left of our rule of law.

The Federal Bureau of Incompetence (also known as the liberal Democrat Stasi) fucked up again. :rofl:



In a system with a 98%+ conviction rate, where grand juries will indict a ham sandwich - as the old saying goes - the federal government failed to secure a single conviction in the case against four men accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan's Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

The massive prosecutorial failure (which shouldn't have been a surprise given the absurd levels of corruption and criminality exposed among the FBI agents who led the investigation, behavior that ultimately led to the lead investigating agent being fired by the bureau) will unquestionably undermine the Biden Administration's claim that far-right 'white supremacist' terror is the biggest internal threat to the US.

Good News Friday

Dear Patriots,


We asked for your support and you responded in a huge way. Thank you!

We really appreciate your support in all its forms. We find ourselves in a new battle every day as we take on the massive corruption that has stolen our votes for decades and that infests our governments at every level.

The closer we get to exposing more evidence of the decades of crimes, the more attacks we face on our organization and on our lawyers. It's an organized assault by the left that includes the weaponization of federal agencies, state agencies, and bar associations--to name a few.

We also appreciate your prayers and your sharing of information.




1- Democrats are rapidly losing their base as the reality of leftist policy hits everyone hard.
PJ MEDIA

Democrats Are in Big Trouble With Their Dedicated Base According to New Focus Group Data

QUOTE:
Politico published some hand wringing this morning about the distress in the Democrats' base. As it turns out, two key constituencies are not all that happy with President Joe Biden, leading to concern ahead of a predicted red wave in November. According to Ryan Lizza and Eugene Daniels in Tuesday's Playbook:

HIT Strategies has been conducting weekly focus groups to find out in real time how Americans are processing events in 2022. On Monday night we watched discussions with two different subgroups of partisan Democrats assembled by the firm: "Black Base, Always vote for Dems, Ages 25+" and "Youth Base; Always vote for Dems, Ages 25 – 39."

There were significant differences within and between the two groups of nine voters. But there were some broad takeaways.
— A preoccupation with inflation and crime.
— Exhaustion with pandemic restrictions.
— Cynicism about politics.
— Deep frustration that President JOE BIDEN and Democrats have failed to deliver on their early promises.
— Sympathy for Ukraine mixed with a lack of enthusiasm for Biden spending too much time and money on the issue.
— Ambiguity about how important Jan. 6 should be for Democrats in the midterms.

The focus groups dispensed with the fiction that voters only care about unemployment numbers or economic growth when they pay significantly more for groceries and gas personally. According to Lizza and Daniels, participants used words like "exhausted," "uptight," "unsure," "concerned," and "anxious" to describe their feelings about the current environment.




2- Louisiana is suing Zuckerberg for his illegal actions in the 2020 election.
The Federalist

Court Reinstates Louisiana AG's Lawsuit Against Zuckerberg's Election-Meddling Group

QUOTE:
Last week, a Louisiana appellate court reinstated Attorney General Jeff Landry's lawsuit challenging Mark Zuckerberg's infiltration of the state election system with private "Zuck Bucks" that flooded the country during the 2020 election.

In reversing the trial court decision, the appellate court did not declare the Zuckbuck funding of elections illegal but left that to the court below to decide. However, the appellate court's decision highlighted that "the Louisiana Constitution provides that the secretary of state is the 'chief election officer of the state,'" and that "he shall prepare and certify the ballots for all elections, promulgate all election returns, and administer the election laws, except those relating to voter registration and custody of voting machines." The appellate court further stressed that "the secretary of state is also responsible for paying all election costs and expenses."
This analysis supports Landry's argument in the underlying lawsuit that because Louisiana's election laws are "comprehensive and exclusive" and provide for the state "funding of elections and election costs" "the use of private money to fund elections in the State of Louisiana" is illegal. But that will be a question for the lower court to determine on remand.



3- More states are banning what Zuckerberg did in 2020.
ABC NEWS

Mississippi joins states limiting outside election funding
QUOTE-
Mississippi is the latest Republican-led state to ban election offices from accepting donations from private groups for voting operations — a movement fueled by conservatives' suspicion of donations by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in 2020.

Mississippi Republican Gov. Tate Reeves signed House Bill 1365 on Friday, and it will become law July 1. It says state or local officials who conduct elections cannot solicit or accept donations from any private group for "voter education, voter outreach or voter registration programs."

Reeves said in a video posted to Facebook on Monday that he was "deeply disturbed by big tech's attempt to influence the 2020 elections."



4- A great win for a January 6 defendant.
The Post Millennial

Federal judge acquits Jan 6 defendant who argued police allowed him to enter Capitol

QUOTE: A January 6 defendant has been acquitted on all charges after the judge found that the man "reasonably believed" Capitol police let him into the building.

On January 6, 2021, Matthew Martin of New Mexico joined thousands of fellow Trump supporters in storming the US Capitol in Washington, DC.
Many, including Martin, were subsequently charged for their actions, and some were found guilty. Martin, however, has had all charges against him dropped after proving that he was under the impression that police had allowed him to enter the Capitol
US District Judge Trevor McFadden ruled on Wednesday that Martin "reasonably believed" that the fact Capitol Police did not try to stop him from entering the Capitol gave him permission to do just that.



5- Listen to this interview with Andrew Klaven and find out why he thinks the right is finally getting on top of the culture war, and many more interesting thoughts.

Wow. This is telling and sad...
I had a thought on this idea that the DNC is going to replace Biden. I was driving with my wife to NOLA for a funeral and we discussed this.

Consider this:
In 1973 Nixon was President and Agnew was VP. Agnew pleaded no contest to tax evasion and stepped down from office. As per the 25th amendment, Nixon nominated Gerald Ford for VP and he was confirmed by Congress. Then Nixon stepped down and Ford pardoned him.

If the DNC truly desires to dump Biden, I would expect they do NOT want to replace him with Harris as there is no way Harris would get elected in 2024. So who would they consider/desire? At first we thought one of the current high profile Dem Senators or Congressmen. But with the mid-terms coming up, would they really want to pull a sitting Dem off of the Senate or House and risk loosing yet another seat? Maybe a Dem governor? No one came to mind that could possibly win in 2024. So what about a high profile Dem that is not currently in office? Bingo! Hillary Clinton makes perfect sense. She has been positioning herself to run again. She still has a lot of political clout in DC. The left wing media loves her. So how does this happen?

The 25th amendment, section 2 states if there is a vacancy in the office of the VP, the President nominates a VP. That person only needs a majority both of both Houses of Congress to be confirmed. Given the present state of Congress with the RINOs voting for her she would be confirmed.

It would only take the DNC to convince Harris to leave. Then Biden noms Hillery and she is confirmed by Congress. Then Biden steps down and Hilary becomes President.

But all of this would have to happen before the mid term elections or at least before the new folks take their positions, provided the Dems loose control of one or both chambers.

THEN, the special investigator looking at Russia Russia Russia indicts HRC for directing the DNC to use campaign funds to pay a foreign agent to get dirt on Trump, knowing the dirt was a farce and will be used in a smear campaign to take him down. In addition, she coerces the Obama administration to direct the FBI and DOJ to use that fake bullshit dossier the DNC paid for to create doubt in the minds of a FISA judge via the LIES of some FBI Fuckers intent on stopping Trump, and getting the judge to authorize GOVERNMENT SPYING ON A POLITICAL CAMPAIGN-- very Nixon-esque. Or not....

I would LOVE to see Trump - Clinton debates in '24. That shit would be GOLD.

EDIT: there is also the theory that the GOP takes the house, and they put Trump in as Speaker, then they impeach Harris and 25th Biden for incontinence...LOL

Does anyone know who pays for this medication? Is a elementary child’s parents paying for it? If so they should get charged with child neglect.
I sure hope insurance companies don’t pay for it.
Is this stuff “free”. AKA those of us who are productive members of society paying for it.
The taxpayers are already paying for abortions, "Safe Smoking Kits", syringes/needles, and so on...so why not trans surgeries and puberty blockers and hormones for transgender youth?

Matter of fact, don't you need a new roof on your house? Maybe we can get WORKING taxpayers to spring for that, too!

Tired of driving that 12 year old clunker to work? Then quit your job, go on welfare, get on disability because you're tired, don't feel good and then YOU TOO can enjoy the benefits that the the increasing number of lazy, excuse-filled, pussy-fied whiners and complainers have felt entitled to for years! AKA "Progressive Democrats"!
:mad:
