Oh, We Got Trouble

On deporting families with mixed immigration status (such as the parents being in the U.S. illegally, while their kids are citizens): “I don’t want to be breaking up families, so the only way you don’t break up the family is you keep them together and you have to send them all back.” [More]

And since there’s no legal way to deport a citizen, that means scratch this one off the list.

Wants Dreamers to be able to stay…

Because nothing says American self-interest like officially normalizing leftist foreign nationals.

As for “criminals out first,” last I checked a different branch of government will be adjudicating on due process and appeals…

Me, I’m just wondering when the band uniforms arrive.

Good thing none of this has anything to do with that “single issue”… right, Chuck?

Up Until the Very Last Second

So committed are these staffers, Efron confesses, that they plan to work right up until the final moments on inauguration day, rushing to ensure that every possible tax-payer dollar is disbursed before a Republican administration can turn off the spigot. [More]

I find it hard to believe there’s nothing the Republican-controlled House can do to stop this in its tracks– for instance, could House Oversight announce an audit and order a freeze on non-operating cost disbursements pending its completion? What about letting activist employees know they’ll be fired in January if they keep it up?

This Aged Well

These lying @$$holes haven’t said any more either.

That they raise money as “Republicans” is nothing less than fraud, and since they do it to influence political power and laws, ought to be treated as such.

Not. Gonna. Happen.

Abolish the ATF?: Rep. Burlison wants to eliminate ‘disaster agency’ he says has been violating 2nd Amendment- Rep. Eric Burlison plans to introduce a measure that then-Rep. Matt Gaetz previously put forward in 2023 [More]

Without abolishing the “laws” it enforces, we’d just be kicking the can down the road and into potentially worse hands.

Besides, thanks to Vichycon gun-grabbers, it’ll never even make it out of the House. And what do you think Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins will have to say about it in the Senate?

Gun Group Watch

Will we see leadership on this?

I just checked the Twitter/X feeds for them and nada…

I wonder what they have to say about Bondi’s role in railroading George Zimmerman…

Primaries – Open, Closed, or None at All?

Political Parties are private clubs. Primaries are taxpayer-funded elections where private clubs choose their representation in General Elections. So, members of Party A pay for Party B to choose their candidate and those not affiliated with any Party pay for them all. Instead of passing a taxpayer-funded Constitutional Amendment to force private clubs to allow non-members to vote in their internal selection process, why not adopt a system where the private clubs pay for their own processes? [More]

WarOnGuns Correspondent Scott Jensen offer an idea I’ve never considered before, and while addressed to Oklahoma legislators in response to SQ 835 seems universally applicable.

I’ve pointed out a failing of open primaries before and don’t see either party getting their snouts out of the public trough without powerful carrot/stick incentives, but Scott’s ideas are unique and deserves wider consideration.

I’m intrigued. What about you?

Survey SAYS…

Last week, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn lost his bid to be the chamber’s majority leader. The next day, he announced his intention to seek reelection to the Senate in 2026. We asked readers if they would support him if the Texas GOP primary election were held today. Here is a sampling of the comments we received from our readers after they voted in the survey. [More]

By all accounts he should be finished. If he’s not, it’s on Texas Republican voters.

The Meadow Soprano Story

The House Minority Leader is known for iron fisted party discipline and intimidation. Where did she learn to do that so effectively? [More]

Money isn’t the only thing these people launder.

But no matter how much they try to appear legitimate, they just can’t shake the old ways of corruption, extortion and coercion.

She just joined a bigger gang.
