THE LATEST NEWS

1. Good idea:

Congressional Republicans have introduced a bill that would cut off federal funds to states and cities that allow foreign non-US citizens to vote. Good idea, but I assume it will have to wait for a Republican majority and President to become law.

2. Good news:

Good news for those who are upset that Democrats have let looters and smash-and-grab thieves get away scot-free for the past year. It turns out that they will be made to pay after all. The IRS is reminding taxpayers that stolen goods must be declared as taxable income.

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/matt-margolis/2021/12/28/you-wont-believe-what-the-irs-say-people-must-declare-as-income-n1545032

No, I’m serious. Democrats must assume that someone who loots and steals for a living would never cheat on his taxes, since that’s the only crime they recognize anymore.

3. RIP:

Several prominent people have passed away over the holiday break. You can read full information here on the deaths of former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid at 82…

By the way, I am aware of the controversy about Bishop Tutu’s comments on Israel, but it’s our policy here not to make negative comments about the recently deceased. You’ll notice I also didn’t say anything about Harry Reid.


4.  Today's Must Read:

So far, 169 US Marines have been discharged for refusing to take the COVID vaccine and thousands more are facing dismissal, while the Pentagon has yet to grant a single exemption for religious objections. It would spell a devastating blow to our military readiness and a massive injustice to service members who’ve put their lives on the line for years to protect America.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/marines-being-crushed-vaccine-refusal-political-purge

A number of Marines spoke to Fox News about this on guarantee of anonymity. Some of their comments are chilling. They call this a “political purge” by the Biden Administration that’s taking out the best and the brightest service members just for demanding their Constitutional rights.

One Lt. Colonel said they are discharging service members "as fast as they can and as brutally as they can, damaging every Marine as much as they can on the way out." He said the colonel above him warned him, “’Tread very carefully, this is political, you will be crushed like an ant.’ And he told me that because he cares about me. Do I want to continue serving in an institution that crushes people for bringing up reasonable points in defending their faith?"

And does anyone still want to claim that this is about protecting public health?

5. Good poll news for the Biden Administration:

Finally, some good poll news for the Biden Administration: Gallup found that Kamala Harris is not the most unpopular figure in Washington. The bad news: that’s because President Biden is even less popular than she is. His Gallup approval rating is 44% compared to her 46%.

https://www.westernjournal.com/worst-thing-possible-just-happened-bidens-polling-numbers-look-just-dropped/

More bad news: those are both still pretty lousy, and they’re among the highest ratings they’ve garnered in any poll. In a left-leaning Civiqa poll, Biden’s approval is only 37%. And a stunning Issues & Insights/TIPP poll found that only 22% of Americans want Biden to run for reelection and just 12% want Harris to run for reelection.

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2021/12/28/ouchnew-polling-shows-biden-is-more-unpopular-than-kamala-harris-n2601131

One caveat: Gallup found that the most popular figure in Washington with a 60% approval rating is Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. That makes me question either the poll sample or whether people have been paying much attention to SCOTUS news lately.

7. Marc Elias has new strategy for 2022 election:

As we head into the new year, many Republicans have been commenting on the prospect of having a free and fair –- and TRUSTED –- congressional election in 2022 after the mess in 2020. I’ll paraphrase some of this:

Listen up, Democrats! Now that we know about all the ways the vote is vulnerable to manipulation and essentially un-auditable, we’ll have our eyes on you this time! By golly, we’ll make sure there’s a chain of custody for every ballot box and refuse to let you keep our poll watchers away. We’ll have cameras on all the election workers feeding ballots into machines, and we won’t let you shut down the vote counts and kick observers out of the room. Not this time! We’re on to you, and if you think you’re gonna get away with anything this time, you’ve got another thing coming! You might have done it once, but you wouldn’t dare try it again under the kind of scrutiny you’re gonna have. We’ll be watching every move, so THIS election will be secure!

We will indeed be watching as closely as possible, but challenges remain. Marc Elias and his army of attorneys got laws changed in battleground states so that safeguards against mail-in ballot fraud, such as signature matching and ID, are much looser than they used to be. He’ll fight any attempt to change back. And nothing has changed regarding our ability to audit electronic voting systems, so unless we disconnect ourselves from these, we will not know if our vote count is true.

Still, it WILL be harder to cheat this time. So the Democrats need new strategies to keep Congress from turning red in the expected bloodbath of 2022. And, thanks to Elias, they’ve got some.

One of them ties in to the events of January 6, as currently being “investigated” by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s “Special Committee.” The Capitol Hill security breach plays into Democrats’ hands so well, I still say that if it hadn’t happened, they would’ve had to create it, with a little help from the FBI, and you may make of that what you will. Revolver News has done some excellent reporting on this; recall an earlier installment we brought you. For when you have time –- this is extremely detailed –- here is another chapter of their investigation into what they call the “Fedsurrection” of January 6.

https://www.revolver.news/2021/12/damning-new-details-massive-web-unindicted-operators-january-6/

We don’t typically wander down the conspiracy-theory path, but as they say at Revolver, “FBI Director Chris Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland have an awful lot of explaining to do.” They need to tell us why the individuals who seem to have been most instrumental in whipping up and directing the crowd that day (and even the day before) have not been pursued by the FBI. Pelosi’s rejection of Trump’s offer of thousands of National Guard troops for security that day is suspect as well. I’ll have much more to say about this later, but for now the story is how Elias and the DNC are planning to use January 6 to affect the composition of Congress after the 2022 election. Because they are.

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/matt-margolis/2021/12/27/prominent-dem-lawyer-predicts-lawsuits-to-remove-gop-members-from-house-seats-next-year-n1544715

Elias himself tweeted about this on December 20: “My prediction for 2022: Before the midterm election, we will have a serious discussion about whether individual Republican House Members are disqualified by Section 3 of the 14th Amendment from serving in Congress. We may even see litigation.”

I'd say that with DNC superlawyer Elias in charge, we most definitely will see litigation. That’s a promise.

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment reads: “No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, SHALL HAVE ENGAGED IN INSURRECTION OR REBELLION AGAINST THE SAME, OR GIVEN AID OR COMFORT TO THE ENEMIES THEREOF [emphasis mine]. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

In a follow-up, he said, “I am making it clear that members of Congress who engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States are not eligible to serve in Congress.”

Elias would like to disqualify Republicans who supported Trump from even being on the ballot in 2022. He has one problem, which Matt Margolis at PJ Media pointed out: Text messages released by the January 6 committee show that there was no insurrection, and no one at all has even been charged with insurrection. But Elias will no doubt allege that anyone who has even expressed less-than-full confidence in Biden's win –- let alone (horrors!) the thought that Trump might actually have won –- is part of the rebellion. Those presumably would include Jim Jordan of Ohio and Jim Banks of Indiana, the two members of Congress chosen by Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to be on Pelosi’s Jan. 6 committee but refused by her. They, along with Troy Nehls of Texas, even voted against certifying the results of the 2020 election. Insurrectionists!

Why, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Louie Gohmert of Texas even offered aid and comfort to insurrectionists, by visiting them in prison and (gasp!) praying with them. Yes, the so-called reasoning could get that nuts. And Lauren Boebert of Colorado has already been criticized for innocent actions on January 6. Elias is bound to target her.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/fact-check-claim-about-rep-boebert-and-jan-6-insurrection-is-partly-false/ar-AAPrr70

In what is a real head-scratcher for me, even a couple of Trump-appointed judges have made it clear they think the Capitol Hill breach was worse than the riots in Portland in which buildings were torched. They’ve ruled that attorneys for the Jan. 6 defendants can’t compare their treatment under the law with that of the left-leaning Portland defendants, who were treated much more leniently.

https://www.newsmax.com/us/federal-judges-january-6-portland-trump/2021/12/29/id/1050302/?ns_mail_uid=f9499f75-6002-4e3d-a92a-60873ae4921d&ns_mail_job=DM287855_12292021&s=acs&dkt_nbr=010104h4o4dp

Believe it or not, DC District Court Judge Trevor McFadden found a reason to say the Capitol Hill breach posed a greater risk to safety. “The Portland defendants primarily attacked at night,” he wrote. “In contrast, the January 6 rioters attacked the Capitol in broad daylight...their actions endangered hundreds of federal officials in the Capitol complex...”

His colleague, Judge Carl Nichols, did the same: “The Portland rioters’ conduct, while obviously serious, did not target a proceeding prescribed by the Constitution and established to ensure a peaceful transfer of power. Nor did the Portland rioters, unlike those who assailed America’s Capitol in 2021, make it past the buildings’ outer defenses.”

Well, that wouldn’t have happened if the Guard had been there as Trump wanted and if certain key figures hadn’t moved barricades and directed the crowd. In charge of security: Pelosi.

These mystifying rulings will no doubt help Elias with his out-there argument that this really was an insurrection. Expect him to pull out all the stops. Once again: Our lawyers have to be better than their lawyers.

List'ning ev'ry moment to the Spirit's call,

Resting in my Savior as my all in all,

    "So far, 169 US Marines have been discharged for refusing to take the COVID vaccine and thousands more are facing dismissal...."

    It's safe to assume your average enlisted soldier costs around $150k to train before they are even deployed! My fifth-grade math tells me that is a large number, when multiplied by almost anything, even just the 169 Marines that are gone SO FAR ($25,350,000)! Who/whom in our vaunted (NOT) government has begun counting the beans that "We The Taxpaying Serfs" are watching being flushed down the toilet? How many Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard are being added to those wasted training dollars? As was formerly said, a billion dollars here, a billion dollars there, and pretty soon you are talking about a LOT of money! Now, our decayed (non)thinking POLS have no problems with changing that meme, and TRILLIONS roll off of their tongues more easily than those BILLIONS did in yesteryears!

    Our former world-renowned fighting force has long been in decline. Most learned professionals have rated any ground war confrontation with just China as a LOSING proposition, with our military at its current level of war-fighting capability! Are these idiots, pretending to LEAD this country, also insanely suicidal?

    I am not surprised at any of this. Epoch Times reported on the Capitol Hill incident within a week. It already had film footage and texts from from demonic Nancy and her "gang of five".
    The lawyers who recently left Perkins Court set up a left wing office in DC expressly to attack the next elections and GOP. Deep pockets thanks to Soros and likely Gates. Here in Washington the RNC is funding RINO Butler and she is supported by the Washington RNC.
    Since the left can't depend on the dead anymore they now have to import illegals and Muslim terrorists to vote and destroy the next elections.
    To know their gameplay just read Mark Levine's "American Marxism" It is well documented book showing those involved and their game plan

    "Once again: Our lawyers have to be better than their lawyers."

    And...this is the type of nation that you want to live in, now and forever more? Because personally, I'd rather die. I'd rather die than live in a nation where elite political swamp-rats are permitted to constantly harass the people of this nation into compliance with their every ideological whim. I'd rather die than live in a nation where the whims and opinions of increasingly radicalized lawyers - almost all of which are educated within the same "elite swamp-rat Ivy League bubble" by the way - circumvent the Constitution. I'd rather die than live in "Soviet-CCP-Gulag-USA." This is not a free nation, and no "election" will EVER restore America as long as this "lawfare BS" is allowed to continue. And it will be allowed to continue, because "conservatives" are spineless and the legal system is rigged in favor of the Elite. The unelected bureaucrats and Silicon Valley run this country, not the "elected" representatives. Oh, I'm no "insurrectionist." But I'm inclined to become 100% ungovernable. Why should any of us participate in society when we have neither hope, nor voice, nor inalienable rights? God knows we can't depend on the Marines to defend those rights anymore, since apparently said Swamp is intent on turning the US Armed Forces into their own personal Woke-Wehrmacht.

    In point of fact, all of that is how countries get to the point where there are actual insurrections.

    Mike by now you must think I have a dislike for Democrats U are correct Biden blocked shipments of Regeneron a treatment 80% effective at reducing Delta Hospitalizations and Deaths this is just one example of what a disaster this baffoon is. The Biden Admin touts a 137 Million $ deal for a Covid test strip factory the company says it will take 3 years to build!!!!! People wonder how could the Afghanistan withdrawal gone so terrible, Biden is the answer to just about all disasters he gets involved with this dipshitff's DNA needs to be destroyed he has some offspring that needs to be isolated however thats to late also. Democrats U can't love them unless you want to be a Communist or the Grim Reaper.

    Mike
    If this creep Mark Ellis is a "super lawyer" than I'm Perry Mason.
    This Jan 6 nonsense plays into OUR hands because the Jan 6 Patriots are Political Prisoners of the Blue Reich and are being treated without accordance to their Human and Civil Rights.
    And they killed NO ONE -- the cowardly antifa KKK Fascists did.
    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Bozo play this hand -- I can see telling pissed off Americans that those who stood against Voter Fraud and for Freedom and Election Integrity are criminals.
    You know there is an old Greco-Roman saying "whom gods destroy they first make made" -- whom GOD destroys He first makes STUPID.
    I'm loving this.
    As for "Trump appointed Judges" so? That means nothing just as Obama appointed Judges have stood for freedom.
    2022 looks more like a blood bath for the Blue Reich all the time. Trump 2024 -- YES!!!
