BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY 

Possible GOP candidate for President earns "60 Minutes" hit piece

By Mike Huckabee

Good news for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis: the mainstream media must think he’s the frontrunner for the 2024 GOP Presidential nomination. Of course, you can only tell that because they’re obviously so determined to destroy him that they’ll trash their own reputations with garbage “exposes” like the one “60 Minutes” ran on Sunday. So there’s a downside. But I doubt many Republicans put much trust in CBS (“Fake but accurate!) News anyway.

Jennifer Van Laar at RedState.com has a good rundown on the “60 Minutes” hit piece and why it’s complete hooey.

In short: the claim is that DeSantis let Publix drug stores have the coronavirus vaccine first because they donated to his campaign. And since Publix serves Palm Beach County, DeSantis let wealthy seniors “cut the line” to get vaccinated first.

The Director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management, who is a Democrat, denounced that claim as “utter nonsense,” saying that all major pharmacy chains were offered the vaccine, but Publix was just the first one that was ready to distribute it.

Worse, DeSantis already spoke about this, but “60 Minutes” deceptively edited the video, cutting it off before he got to the part explaining the vaccine rollout.

Read the Redstate article to see how low the media will go to kneecap any Republican they see as a threat to Democrat power. Meanwhile, I’d like to address another aspect of this story, and that’s how it’s based on a ridiculous false stereotype that the Republicans only care about the rich.

That one’s been repeated until it has a gray beard longer than Santa Claus’s. But I’d like to ask the “60 Minutes” reporter and others who parrot this outdated old saw, just WHO are these ultra-wealthy people the Republicans cater to? Are the tech billionaires like Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey Republicans? Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos? Mark Cuban? All those Wall Street bankers that Trump hated and Obama bailed out? Hollywood celebrities and entertainment moguls? Jay-Z? The CEOs of Delta, Coca-Cola and Major League Baseball?

It’s Republicans who tried to secure the border and create jobs for working Americans, who finally saw their wages rise for the first time in decades. The minute he got into office, Biden issued a flurry of executive orders destroying those jobs and flinging open the border to insure a steady supply of low wage workers - great for wealthy corporate CEOs but terrible for workers, whose wages are depressed by mass immigration.

The GOP has become the party of the working class and the Democrats the party of wealthy urban elites. The reason they have to keep screaming “racist” at everyone who tells the truth about them is because their biggest fear is that minorities and working people who’ve been voting Democrat for decades out of force of habit will wake up and realize that times have changed, this is no longer their grandpa’s Democratic Party, and the people running it couldn’t care less about what’s good for everyday working Americans.

About that CBS interview with Hunter Biden

By Mike Huckabee

While some of us were dealing with much more important news on Easter Sunday morning, CBS aired an interview with Hunter Biden, and as always with him, the truth remained harder to find than an Easter egg.

There’s yet another twist in the story of his “alleged” incriminating laptop: the one that the media told us during the campaign was possibly Russian disinformation (the FBI, DOJ and Director of National Intelligence all agreed that it wasn’t), then banned the New York Post’s story about it from social media for being based on “hacked data” (it wasn’t: Biden left it at a repair shop until it became property of the shop owner.)

This time, he admitted that it “certainly” could be his laptop, although he also claimed he had “no idea,” and added, “It could be that I was hacked, it could be that it was Russian intelligence. It could be that it was stolen from me.”

Note: it isn’t any of those things (see above.) It could be a brilliant forgery created by space aliens of the 24th century and dropped off at a repair shop in Delaware via time machine, but that’s probably not true, either. But I wouldn’t be surprised if NPR ran with that story next.

Major corporations cave to the Left

By Mike Huckabee

Coca-Cola, Major League Baseball and Delta Airlines are among the corporations who’ve caved to the left and are trying to boycott or punish Georgia for passing laws to insure election integrity, laws that they apparently haven’t even read because they actually make it easier for legally-qualified voters to vote, despite the multiple lies told by President Biden. And despite the fact that multiple polls now show more than 70% of Americans support voter ID laws. But speaking of being forced to show your ID…

Coke requires people to show an ID to attend their annual shareholder meeting…

…Major League Baseball requires photo ID to pick up baseball tickets at Will Call

…Of course, we all know how many ID showings, metal detectors, long lines, security checks and body cavity searches you have to suffer through to get on a Delta Airlines flight.

There are even very strict ID requirements to visit the Biden White House…

I had no idea all these good liberals were so intent on bringing back Jim Crow.

Also, a number of commentators have pointed out that some of the same if not stricter voting rules have prevailed for years in Biden’s home state of Delaware, but he never called them “Jim Crow on steroids.”

In a related story, here’s how some of these “woke” corporations, including Coke, Delta and Disney think Georgia doesn’t come up to their high moral standards but are perfectly fine with cozying up to the genocidal communist government of China.

Democrats telling verifiable, previously debunked, outright lies

By Mike Huckabee

When I say that the Democrats are lying about the Georgia law, I don’t use that word the way the media use it against Republicans; i.e., calling an opinion I disagree with a “lie.” No, I meant they are telling verifiable, previously debunked, outright lies. In Biden’s case, he’s continuing to repeat them even after they’ve been publicly debunked and the Washington Post gave him “Four Pinocchios” for one. While I continue to demand that Twitter and Facebook ban Biden for spreading dangerous, divisive misinformation, I’ll turn you over to Derek Hunter at Townhall, who examines the question, “Are these Democrats liars or are they actually stupid enough to believe the things they’re saying that are demonstrably false?

Personally, when I hear many comments from the left, I often ask myself if they’re really stupid enough to believe that, or if they just think the rest of us are stupid enough to believe it.

PS – After writing the above, I discovered that the hilariously brutal Kurt Schlichter has written a column on the exact same question, are they stupid or lying (it must be on a lot of people’s minds these days.) He also explains why these lies can be dangerous, even when they’re so stupid that not even the leftists telling them could possibly believe them.

President Trump calls for boycott

By Mike Huckabee

While President Trump has called on Republicans to boycott a number of companies that try to blackmail states into tailoring their laws to please the loudest leftists...

...there are some companies that refuse to knuckle under, and they are demonstrating that the yapping poodles are all bark and no bite. Here are just a few

Notice the two things they have in common:

(1.) They told the leftists to take their demands and put them where the sun doesn’t shine.

(2.) They not only didn’t suffer any loss of business, but some got even more business, with Republicans and other supporters of free speech and free thought going out of their way to purchase their products and services. Being condemned by AOC for working with President Trump helped Goya get more first-time buyers who’ve now become loyal customers than any advertising campaign they’ve ever run. No wonder they named her “employee of the month!”

I would compare all these “cancel culture” warriors to the Emperor who had no clothes, but these days, the little boy who pointed out that the emperor was naked would be canceled for daring to question the naked man's right to identify as a clothed person.

A Reader Writes Back...

Governor Huckabee - Thank you for these wonderful articles that bring serious issues to Americans who are smart enough to "pay attention". I am in my early 70's and have been frustrated for years with the lack of concern shown for traditional American values. Yes America has been party to some terrible things in the past - that should not have happened in a country built on "Freedom". But man is flawed and has been since the beginning of time. That should not detract from the fact that our nation was conceived on principles that are worthy, even if we as a people stumble from time to time.

Thank you for encouraging/pushing "real Americans" to stand up for our country. Too many people have given their life for this idea of America, for us to let it be destroyed on our watch. There are a growing number of us that use our small platforms to try and get people to open their eyes and see what the "haters" are doing to our country. If each of us can reach one or two people a day and get them to face what is going on. That will be a start. The next step will be to get them to get involved.

If Washington, the "Misguided Media" and "Cowardly Corporate America" think that "America hating Liberals/Socialist" are a force to be reckoned with, they obviously have forgotten what "America Loving Conservatives" can do - when we stand together. It's time that we remind them.

Thank you for doing what you do.

    There seems to be no stopping the attacks against Conservatives! It's out totally out of control. Comrade Biden should of zipped his lips about the changes in GA. I blame Stacy Abrams & I hope the people who will lose their lively hood or close permanently realize it's her & not Governor Kemp. It's time we start boycotting all these corporations that get involved in politics like this. I would be outright mad if the Masters change. Right now it's outright "blackmail." I don't drink Coke or fly Delta!! Oh, BTW, yesterday I picked up the news on FOX, some idiot said something that Portland is considering taking down trees because it's racists!!!!!!!!! Gov. Huckabee have you seen or heard about this? Also, Comrade Biden seems to like saying "Jim Crow" (he's playing to the WOK audience) & only seems to take 3 questions when & if possible. Another great newsletter!

    I've been email sparring with my liberal friend about the label "America First". She actually had the silliness to call this as meaning White privilege. I told this was really a stretch. "America First" actually means, Patriotism and what the hack is wrong with that. If people find America so distasteful how can they bear to live here? It's old, but True, to say, if you don't love America, then leave.

    Thank you Governor,
    It's interesting that the MLB all star game moved to Denver when the difference in election law is so tiny. GA allows 17 days early voting with an optional weekend. CO allows 15 days early voting. CO forbids electioneering with in 100 feet while GA makes it 150 feet.
    Both states allow no excuse mail in ballots and both states require Id for in person and mail in voting.
    What really changed was businesses affected. Instead of black owned businesses profiting in Atlanta white owned businesses profit in Denver.
    That's equity, right?

    Here is something that is missing in news, but of course it is because it sends the wrong message, which is, why go to work when the fed. govt. will pay you to not work anywhere. I have talked to two local small business owners, and they are all short-staffed because no one wants to work any more, as long as they don't work and can collect unemployment plus extra $400.00 per week to not go to work anywhere. But collecting unemployment, does not take soc. security out, so they won't have as much social security benefits to receive when it's time. But also, by the time the 20 somethings are eligible for Social Security in 40+ years, with the huge pay-outs of Trillions of dollars the Demo-idiots are giving away, there will not be any money left to pay Social Security benefits any way, so why should the younger generation work any way? Also, why should the same younger generation even go to college, as they won't need to go to work anywhere, as long as the feds. hand out all the free money. And yes, I truly believe this country will go bankrupt and China will bail us out with strings attached that in order to bail-out America, China will be buying America and make it another Chinese Communist Party Territory.

    I am glad I only have maybe 30 more years to live, as I won't be living to see all the gnashing of teeth and warring happening when America no longer exists. I feel awful for our grandchildren though, but they are being taught to love communism, so they may be able to survive that system because they won't know any other system that existed. I pray God will save America well before then, like tomorrow or asap in God' time, not man's time. America is like Hades now, and Jesus did go down to Hades and save those sorrowful souls who cried out for him, so maybe sooner than later Jesus will come again and save us from this horrid mess the evil and Satan-led Democrats have created long before this year. It has been 20 years this September, since the 9/11 Attacks, we must be prepared for another attack from the enemy, but it is from the enemy within our borders this time. Maybe that's why all the razor wire around the Capitol building, as Pelosi and Schumer know something is coming, because they've probably planned it to happen themselves.

    For those who would like to get rid of cable ( and save money too ). Any electronic store or online sells TV antennas that work with any modern TV. Programming TV can be a little complicated. But it's free!! I live near Albany, NY and I get 60+ channels all FREE! It is not interactive like cable where what you are watching goes to tv ratings. I watch TBN with TBN APP on my iPad and plug into my TV with HDMI adapter for my iPad. Again I watch for free. Grand kids or the neighbors kid can hook up easily for fresh baked cookies!

    Dare Governor Huckabee, most things about the Democratic Party bother me.... a lot.
    This Border thing with "under age children " maybe I'm just mean, but at WHAT point in our Country says we HAVE to baby sit the world. They are NOT our responsibility. Just put them over the fence, tell them to GO HOME! That said they should ALL just go home. The REAL President Trump already offered to "invade" Mexico, put a stop to the crooks so EVERYONE can live happily ever after. Let's do that.

    The Dems are assuming people of color are too stupid to get ids. When are these people going to wake up. The stupid ones are those white folks buying off on this stuff.

    Don’t be too harsh with the old guy. Biden can’t help it, he simply does what he told and speaks what is written for him. He doesn’t know and does not have the energy to find out.

    My biggest worried:
    Biden has the nuclear codes with him at all times.
    Our children are going to be so messed up that it will be impossible to correct their misconceptions.
    Probably worst if all is the attempt to dismantle Christianity and Jew-deism. Still the Jews vote mostly Dem. they are too smart for that.

    I hope 75+ million Trump supporters definitely join the boycott. These corporations and MLB ( right along with NBA and NFL) deserve to go broke, so let's give them what they deserve!! Start supporting small businesses and any company that actually still stand by America First! (this will take some research on your part) Americans who actually still believe in our beloved constitution, need to FIGHT back. A very wise and knowledgeable person informed me that what America is experiencing right now is "soft totalitarianism". It is here!!! It is in education, it is being pushed by big tech, being totally pursued by the evil Democrats and way too many RINO's. The MSM is all in on our nation being taken over or radically changed. Don't count on the irrelevant Supreme Court to be bothered with the violations of the constitution. Seems that a civil war is on the horizon because China Joe the illegitimate resident of the WH and the Demonrats, are moving fast right before our eyes. It will take a war against the domestic terrorist they are. Where's our military in all of this? Time will tell. Patriots should be preparing. The time will come where all the talk, information, complaining and appeasement will have no affect on the evil agenda infiltrating our nation. It isn't having any affect now, because the evil Demonrats don't care as long as they succeed with obtaining total POWER and CONTROL. Some "red states" are trying to fight back, but sadly and tragically all of them are not passing legislation to fight big Demonrat control. America- wake up now- the agenda is already implemented and going full steam ahead to take control and rule over us!!!!!!

    TX Governor Greg Abbot today declined the TX Rangers' invitation to throw out the first pitch for their opening game of the season, because of the stupid MLB decision to move their game from Atlanta based on the fake news reporting of the new GA voting law. I applaud Gov. Abbot, but CBS' local news did not mention it when "reporting" on the opening day. I only watch the network news for the local weather, but wanted to see what they did with this story. As I suspected, it was nothing. Shameful. I don't have cable. Where can I get news?

    Well, Mr. Huckabee, I finally had had enough with slanted and deceptive information (re: Georgia bill), dipped my big toe in the social media waters, and got scorched in my attempt to set the record straight with a local news article. Someone immediately jumped on my response and the back and forth began. The thing is, I wasn’t trying to give an opinion. I was using actual sections of the Georgia bill to say Read this! This is what it says...not this. Let’s just say it didn’t go well. Sigh. I know we should speak up, but I just don’t know how to argue points...and I don’t know how to be nasty.
    Going back to my quiet world to recover...I’m down, but not out.

    So if MLB is moving the All Star game out of GA over the voting bill it would seem they or leftists might also have the stupid idea that the Atlanta Braves must move out of GA. Think it's coming?
    I'm going to boycott the All Star game if it isn't in Atlanta. Perhaps you and/or Sean could get this boycott idea moving through the USA. Sent this to Sean too.

I don't tweet, but the paper printed it and I started laughing, especially the part about tickets to ball games and shoes from Nike. I personally don't like Nike because of some of the athletes they sponsor and condone kneeling.
    Keep up your humor, that is why I love your TV show, sort of Johnny Carson with more conservatives!

    Governor, please give the Republicans some ammunition against HR1. The Dems are winning the PR campaign by calling all reforms Voter Suppression. HR1 wants to legalize ALL forms of illegal voting. OK with me as long as ALL forms of voting (early, in-person, absentee, mail, even internet) use BLOCKCHAIN Technology to secure ALL votes. There could be no cheating with any form of voting. Gotcha Dems!
