The GOP Should Revolt Against Lame Duck Pelosi’s Dictatorship

Maybe she will expel the Republicans. Great. In her regime, the GOP can’t do anything anyway. It cannot even pick its own committee members.

 Townhall  "The ridiculous mask kabuki that Lame Duck Dictator Nancy Pelosi is attempting to impose upon the Party of Freedom is the perfect opportunity for the GOP to demonstrate that


it is not a flock of hapless, wriggling invertebrates. A little spine shown right about now would go a long way, not only to winning back Congress in 2022 by an even bigger margin than currently anticipated but to fixing the institution that power-mad harridan has grievously damaged. It might mean accepting that Republicans will be booted from the House for a bit, but who cares? We have zero input anyway. Make a stand.

"Here you go, GOP. Here’s your game plan. Get together. Throw your grody face-thongs into the trash. Walk into the People’s House. Refuse to obey her erratic and bizarre commands to submit." . . .

. . . "Maybe she’ll “fine” you. Great. Have lawyers on standby to go to court for an injunction against her unilateral attempt to alter your pay as legislators. Courts exist to solve disputes, and you have a good case. Can she also dock your pay for…not voting as she sees fit? Why or why not, Democrat ambulance chasers? Let’s have that fight." . . .



Hardhat-wearing ‘everyman’ rips sheepish response to ‘madness’ behind Biden admin’s vaxx push

BPR  "A hardhat-wearing “intellectual” took the Biden administration to task over the recurrence of masking mandates as well as its insistence that all federal workers either take the COVID-19 vaccine or be subjected to weekly testing hassles.

"But in a short video posted to Twitter, the “Hardhat Intellectual” saved his biggest criticism for Americans who, in his view, continue to sheepishly accept endless COVID mandates and restrictions. Warning: Strong language



America-hating soccer team loses to Canada

(July 31) Here’s why some Americans want the US women’s football team to lose at Tokyo Olympics

Many could not hide their glee after the US soccer team endured a humiliating defeat against Sweden in their opening match of the Olympics.


"There’s something you normally don’t witness during the Olympics: people wishing and passionately cheering for the defeat of their own football team.

"Usually, people go out on a limb to support their national team, even if the chances of their winning are bleak. However, this time around, American fans were so thoroughly repulsed by their own women soccer team that they prayed with all their might for their defeat and elimination from the Olympics.

"A large number of US citizens do not want to see their women soccer team win at the Olympics. Their reason being that the team is too woke to a fault, which they claim is unduly affecting their performance. They want their team to lose so that the players realise the perils of warming up to the evil of wokeism. And their discontent with the US women soccer team was manifest in their social media posts when they suffered an unexpected defeat against Sweden in the opening match at the Olympics." . . .

Where Is the Love? Deflated Megan Rapinoe Laments Empty Olympic Stadiums, Lack of Fans


Down and Out: U.S. Women Beaten by Canada in Olympic Soccer Semi  . . . "The world champions will now seek redemption by competing for the consolation of a bronze medal."
Some comments to this post:
"They turned their backs on us, we turned our backs on them. Fair is fair.

"US Women's Soccer Team = LOSERS" ...

"Not because of the results on the field but because they disrespected the US and all Americans" ...

"I don't recall being this happy from a sporting event result in a very long time, not because I'm Canadian, but because the US womens soccer team lost."

"Honestly could[n't] care less about the lesbian business, but she is American-hating is a huuge problem! And, wokeness is thee worst!"
"Poor gals, no chance to kneel, turn around, or abuse the flag. Are they crying on the flight home, I hope?"


. . . "Controversy has followed the team since some of the players became political activists instead of focusing on winning. The main instigator of the move to “wokeness” is Megan Rapinoe who wears her activism on her sleeve. The entire team wore BLM t-shirts during warm-ups for their last game against Mexico before traveling to the Olympics."
"Many on the team kneel or ignore the National Anthem by staying in the locker room during its playing. What they don’t get is that they have the freedom to make asses of themselves by hating their home country but they wouldn’t have those same freedoms in so many other places." . . .

Soon, no one in California will be able to bring home the bacon

I agree but, as always, California’s going about it the wrong way. This change should be organic, coming from the people and driving the marketplace, rather than a single state’s mandate that destroys businesses, wipes out a major part of people’s diets, and negatively affects the whole of the United States.

 Andrea Widburg  "In just five months, California may well be the first state in America that effectively bans any pork products. This is because, back in 2018, voters approved an animal welfare proposition setting out space requirements standards for those who breed pigs, egg-laying chickens, and veal calves. While chicken farmers and veal producers across America have mostly met those standards, it seems the hog farmers have had a harder time. This is an interesting story because it touches upon the laws of unintended consequences and the effect a state like California has on the rest of America.

"The story comes from the Associated Press:

At the beginning of next year, California will begin enforcing an animal welfare proposition approved overwhelmingly by voters in 2018 that requires more space for breeding pigs, egg-laying chickens and veal calves. National veal and egg producers are optimistic they can meet the new standards, but only 4% of hog operations now comply with the new rules. Unless the courts intervene or the state temporarily allows non-compliant meat to be sold in the state, California will lose almost all of its pork supply, much of which comes from Iowa, and pork producers will face higher costs to regain a key market. . . .
