Filibusters are normally used by Senators to object to some piece of legislation they do not agree with. It also may occur if there is some nominee that requires Senate approval and, again, the Senator in question wants to make a point of disagreeing with the advancement of said nominee.
The NYTimes publishes an “investigative” article that shows that the US has had boots on the ground in Ukraine for a long time. The article also talks about the CIA being there and acting to target the Russian Federation with drones and missiles. None of this is surprising to anyone who has followed the Ukraine war from its beginnings. Only those who subsist on the handouts of media outlets like the NYTimes and WaPo would not know this.
Andrea Widburg has written a post which, although I am not sure she realized it, contains an insanely funny video. Widburg presents an interview done by Brandon Straka of two white women who are presented with a situation where they must reconcile two diametrically opposing facts.
Warning Satire Ahead
U.S. — A district judge has issued a ruling saying Trump lacked the Constitutional authority to pick up two astronauts who have been stranded at the International Space Station for several months.
SpaceX has been ordered to return the astronauts immediately.
One of the things that has become apparent as the weeks roll by is that PDJT’s selection of Marco Rubio to be Secretary of State was an excellent one. Dr. Tom Woods has some observations on Rubio’s roles in the Ukrainian mess.
I have written previously about Chief Justice John Roberts’ approach to the current problems within the federal court system. At that time, I suggested that Roberts was trying to give the DC Circuit Court an opportunity to correct its mistakes. Roberts issued an administrative stay on requiring the government to pay out $2 billion. Roberts suggested that the court needed to qualify its ruling better. This was a not so subtle hint to reexamine the case.
The Russia collusion propagandists are at it again. And they appear to receive funding via US tax dollars. Molfar, a London-based Ukrainian intelligence group linked to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), labelled American politicians as “foreign propagandists,” falsely accusing them of Russian loyalty.
Victor Hanson has uncovered what he believes must be considered as the current Democratic Party agenda. Hanson identifies ten items that he believes comprises the bulk of what the Democrats are trying to achieve.
Democrats are racing to undermine the arrest of a prominent illegal alien activist, framing her as a simple grandmother who isn’t receiving due process. It is hard to believe that Tim Walz has not already jumped into the pot. After all, this illegal alien has a criminal history dating back more than 15 years and has been violating immigration laws for even longer, authorities say. Don’t high profile Democrats automatically jump in to defend such criminals?
Kristallnacht has come to America. For those not familiar with the term, Kristallnacht, the Night of the Broken Glass, was an attack by the Nazis against Jewish persons and property in Germany (and to some extent in neighboring Austria). It took place on the night November 9-10 in 1938. It had the tacit approval of the political leadership. The name Kristallnacht refers ironically to the litter of broken glass left in the streets after this violence.
