BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY 

 

RIP Congressman Wright

By Mike Huckabee

I’m saddened to report that Texas Republican Rep. Ron Wright has died at 67. He was a member of the House Freedom Caucus and a staunch defender of the Constitution, individual freedom, election integrity and the lives of the unborn.

Less than three weeks ago, Wright announced that he’d been diagnosed with COVID-19. He and his wife were both admitted to the hospital in Dallas, where Ron died Sunday. He had also been battling lung cancer for several years.

All of us here extend our sympathies to his family and our prayers for them and for his wife Susan to make a complete recovery.

Words of encouragement

By Mike Huckabee

Donald Trump Jr. offered some words of encouragement to Trump supporters that “our amazing movement” of the people against the establishment and the elite is “not done yet.” He said he knows we’re up against a lot, but his dad is “still going to keep going.” He also had some comments about media double standards on “fact-checking” and Biden’s “China first, America last” policies.

Note also the quote from Trump campaign advisor Jody Miller that Trump “would be involved in the 2022 midterms with the immediate focus being to help Republicans win back both chambers of Congress.”

So for all the “I’ll form a third party/I’ll vote Democrat/I just won’t vote” commenters still angry over Trump’s loss, please note that if you really support Trump, what he wants you to do is get to work electing Republican majorities to the House and Senate in 2022. Keeping the Dems in power won’t help Trump, it won’t help you, and it sure as heck won’t help America.

Fact-checking during the Biden Administration

By Mike Huckabee

During the Trump Administration, so-called “fact-checkers” would use any difference of opinion, joke or exaggeration to scream “LIAR!!” Now that Biden is in, they seem to have decided that their function is to split more hairs than a broken comb.

Take a look at how far Politifact’s “fact-checker” had to bend over backwards to deny that Biden’s order on transgender rights in schools would allow males who “identify” as female to compete in girls’ sports.

Apparently, Biden must explicitly say that he’s ordering trans males to be allowed to compete in girls’ sports before anyone can say that will be the effect, even though the order itself states as its goal that “children should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports.”

It was said that Trump supporters took him seriously but not literally, while his critics took him literally but not seriously. In the Biden era, “fact-checkers” who took every word Trump said literally are no longer even trying to be taken seriously.

Was Trump right about the border?

By Mike Huckabee

In a related story, Trump's critics and “fact-checkers” liked to call him a lying liar who lies when he claimed that there were terrorists and terrorist sympathizers among the waves of illegal immigrants streaming across our Southern border over the past decade. So journalist and former counterterrorism intelligence official Todd Bensman decided to examine the records and find out if Trump was right. As is often the case, turns out he was right and his critics were wrong. More details here.

In his new book, “America’s Covert Border War: The Untold Story of the Nation’s Battle to Prevent Jihadist Penetration,” Bensman reports that officials encountered 22,000 “special interest aliens,” the term for terrorist-related immigrants, between 2008 and 2019. A known 104 of them got across the border. That sounds like a small number, but recall that it took only 19 to pull off the 9/11 attacks.

All you suburban Never Trumpers who care so much about security still feeling good about that vote for Joe “Stop the Border Wall/Catch and Release” Biden?

New program needed

By Mike Huckabee

As Democrats prepare to “impeach” former President Trump on phony charges that he encouraged rioters, the hardest part for some may be repressing their natural urge to go back to encouraging rioters themselves. It’s been over a month now since they turned on a dime and started declaring rioting to be a bad thing, and some of them seem to be relapsing to their old habits. Maybe someone needs to create a 12-step program for them, like “Riot Supporters Anonymous.”

House Democrats move ahead

By Mike Huckabee

House Democrats are moving ahead with a coronavirus relief bill, but Republicans and some moderate Democrats are pushing for them to consider a radical new idea: sending money only to people who actually need it.

It also appears that the Dems’ push to include a $15-an-hour minimum wage raise in the COVID bill is dead, but President Biden says he hopes to see it passed as a stand-alone bill. He and the bill’s supporters claim it will not destroy low-skill jobs, but on that claim, they stand alone. A number of studies, as well as practical experience in cities that have tried it, show that raising the cost of labor above what the market will bear results in layoffs, small business closures and starter-level jobs being automated.

Now, add to those problems a new report by the Congressional Budget Office, which estimates that nearly doubling the minimum wage to $15 an hour would result in a net loss of about 1.4 million jobs over the next four years. It raises the cost of doing business, which is passed on to consumers as higher prices, which causes them to cut back, resulting in less revenue to businesses which have to cut staffs, creating a downward economic spiral.

But I’m sure all those people will be able to find high-paying new “green jobs.” Just don’t ask Biden Press Secretary Jen Psaki when or where you might be able to apply for one of those.

MAGA doesn't incite hate

By Mike Huckabee

If you have an account with Amazon and/or Chase Bank, you might want to let them know that “Make America Great Again” is not a phrase that “incites hate,” and you don’t do business with companies that cut businesses off from financial services because they supported President Trump. Or they have a sense of humor. And by the way: Amazon cut this company off in 2019, so the “challenging the election/promoting riots” excuse doesn't apply.

    Election Dementia! Solution. As stated if you stay home you will accept the Status Quo and we will go from Democratic Socialism, an Oxymoron, to full Socialism or Communism which ever the Oligarchs of Big Tech decide is best for their Pocketbooks.
    My Solution can circumvent the Oligarch's ballot buying! volunteer to be a Poll Worker and Poll Watchers. Then you can Prevent the Dim Wits from manipulating the votes. Paper Ballots and a faraday cage built around all the Dominion type voting machines and a dedicated cable cutter in all voting places. I'll supply the Klein Cutters!
    The alternative is that 9mm hole?

    My request may be down the line, behind several hundred people. But I would like to know why Hilary Clinton is not a traitor, and is no different than Alger Hiss. Also, I presume the Democrats couldn't care less if the impeachment is constitutional or not. Saw a constitutional expert, quote from a specific area of the constitution that is was illegal. Now the Demo's have an expert that say it is. I am confused!

    Does anyone remember an old saying the chain is only as strong as its weakest link? the links in the GOP's chain the weakest link outnumber the strongest links. The GOP is not much better than what ever the other mob is called. This country better send better men and women to the swamp if the country is going to get healthy again the swamp is full of non resident venous reptiles killing the native mammals

    Joe Biden is releasing criminal illegal non citizens into the towns and cities of our country this is a violation of the oath he took to protect America from foreign aggression. Removal from office immediately oh wait lets maybe put him on trial and let Schumer and Pelosi make the new rules how to conduct the trial sound fair.

    Another great newsletter. How much further will the progressive agenda go???
    Here's some food for thought! It's very hard to watch or hear the news today. I guess they'll come after our homes next.
    Is this true?
    New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer joined forces this week to publicize a federal program that will reimburse the families of coronavirus victims up to $7,000 for funeral expenses for deaths from the disease that occurred in 2020 — even if the death involved an illegal alien.

    I thought during this fake impeachment it would be a good time to start building a case against Obama. Rice. Hillary. Bengazi. Fake video. Fast and furious. Keep those videos up everyday. And Watters etc. Time to turn things on the dems. Put the focus on them.

    Governor, I love reading your newsletter daily. To protect its integrity and keep detractors from arguing your claims, please note that the article about the border has been updated. It has been updated to reflect the author used a model from Europe to determine the number 104 who had crossed the border. The actual number is undetermined but I agree is relevant. Keep at it! Love your work!

    restraint: Secret Service must have had great restraint compared to the Democrats. The things that the opposition party said threatening the President and were not put in jail is outrageous and Democrats have the gull to do 2 phoney ..baloney impeachments JAIL ALL THE DEMOCRATS

    Gov. Mike, Do you think that another reason why the Dems. are doing this craziness and unconstitutional act II, is to discourage anyone from running against them in the future? Isn't that the same as what communist (conartist-ism) dictators do to any opposition of their regime? Put them on trial for non-offenses? This does seem to be a precedent that they are setting up. Way too much like communist ruling dictators now. What can we possibly do? Yes I will still vote, but if we want to launch a class action lawsuit against the federal Congress for their unconstitutional actions, unless we win the million dollar lottery, we have no money to spend on attorneys, unless they work pro bono, but who will be the 'example' they will use, the dems., to live through defamation? I know President Trump was their 'example' to others to never go against their idiot-ology, but who will be next? And how can we totally stop them? We can try to vote them out of office, but we saw what they did in the last election, they cheated to win, so how can anyone stop their cheating to win every election going forward? Yes it does seem like us vs. them, but that is something they did by using propaganda through big tech, news media, and any other media that money will buy to say what they want them to say. And how in the world can we fight against the Chinese Communist Party operatives that are already here in the U.S.? It does seem hopeless, and what country will help us fight against the Communists' influence in our own country too? I see even Germany and Australia are fed up with big tech too, after seeing what happened in, of all places, the U.S.A. and they were for President Trump. Maybe a league of nations will help America now defend against what happened 100 years ago now, and Israel should help us too, as we cannot get the help from our own US Supreme Court now. It is now time for God to intercede since we, mere humans, cannot now. An Act of God using nature as His tools may be the only answer, for now. Since it is Black History Month, which is another racist Liberal thing right there, instead it should be called American History Month, a renewed assistance like the underground railroad should be started to help Conservatives and Christians who want to go against the establishment and elitist Liberal, Socialists, Communists in America, should be founded by allowing us to be free from oppression by the Socialists and cheaters against our Republic Govt., by the people, for the people, and of the people, and not the money owners and their Chinese offshore accounts they use to undermine the U.S. Constitution, just because they don't like what it states. The Dems. are shredding our U.S. Constitutional rights daily! Something's gonna give like a dam that has cracks in it!

    My Huckabee,
    This is off topic, hope you don't mind.
    I recently made a purchase from MyPillow. We needed pillows and I also wanted to support Mr. Lindell because of all the flack he has been taking and for being "cancelled".
    A few days after placing my order I received this email from them. "Dear MyPillow Customer,
    Due to the overwhelming support for MyPillow we are extremely behind on getting orders shipped out. We are working around the clock to get everyone’s orders out as fast as we can. Right now, there could be up to a 2-week delay.

    Everyone at MyPillow is so thankful for your continued support and patience.

    Blessings
    Mike Lindell"

    That is the first time I have been happy that an order had been delayed!
    There seems to be a bunch of folks stepping to help support MyPillow!.

    Thank you,
    Steve

    A lot of high drama going on in the temple of DC.
    The next elections will be brutal. The Marxists have succeeded in splitting the Church. The left church leaders will continue to tell their sheeple to vote blue and follow the religion of Marxism.
    The left will continue to live in " wonderland" and follow their Marxist overlords to end up bankrupting the citizens and kill thousands with the pandemic hoax.
    XiXiPeng and Iran are happy as they see the Great Satan killing itself off
    Time for patriots and true Christians to stand up and be accounted as men with God Almighty leading!

    I think Walmart is getting ready for the $15.00/hr wages, at least in my neighborhood “Neighborhood Market”! They’ve done some remodeling. Yesterday I stopped in for some groceries and had to use self service to check out. There was 10 or so self check-outs and not a “live” check person in sight. How many people lost their jobs there?

  • David E. Miller

    02/09/2021 08:41 PM

    I think Biden wants to raise the minimum wage to $15 in order to push businesses to employ illegal aliens who will work for a lot less. The pool of illegals will be there for them since Biden is encouraging illegal immigration with his open border policies. This will increase unemployment among citizens who are denied a $15/hour job because businesses can't afford them.

    I realize that President Trump is in need of legal representation after all that followed the Capitol breech on January 6. But several people masquerading as Trump supporters has portrayed us all as aggressive, law breaking rioters. Our movement has never advocated destructive, riotous behavior and the Left has completely weaponized the breech against us all! Reeducation camps? For 80 million people? The difference between us and the paid aggressors must be made!

    It is with the aim of picking up donkeys by voice and let illegal immigrants pay them from our taxes and pass laws that completely violate the US CONSTITUTION! Donkeys in the first place out of their pockets have little money, as well as the criminal and the whole gang of lawless democrats. They really want war because it is more convenient to fill their pockets and steal under cannon fire. That is why I always say, Stop being nice to criminals! The Democratic Party must be DESTROYED completely, no matter in what way. I lived for a long time. communists in Russia and I know how scary it is. Therefore, a quotation from the Bible - What judgment do you judge and you will be judged! Fully fits the Democrats!

    Big fan Mike, read your email daily.
    You seem not to have commented on the Mike Lindell presentation regarding voter fraud. I am curious to get your take.
    Keep up the good work, I write frequent conservative commentaries in local SE Minnesota paper and often get excellent topics from you. God Bless,
