REVEALED: Former Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton Senior Policy Advisor Charged with Child Sex Offenses | The Gateway Pundit | by Cullen Linebarger

House Speaker Mike Johnson is moving forward with a legislative package to provide aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. Despite fierce opposition from MAGA Republicans within his caucus, Johnson has decided that the imperative of the US providing this assistance is more important than pleasing all the members of his caucus.
Without this support, international adversaries, including Russia, Iran and China, would read the failure of the US Congress to pass legislation as a sign that MAGA’s America First agenda was triumphant. They might conclude that age of internationalism, entrenched into American politics since World War II, had come to an end.
The problem for Johnson is that his decision to move forward could very well cost him his job. Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has been beating the drums to vote Johnson, who is himself also an extreme right-wing Republican, out of office. With the new rules adopted by House Republicans when Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California was elected speaker last year, it only takes one member to trigger a vote to “vacate” the speakership.
When GOP House members adopted this lower threshold in exchange for accepting McCarthy, experts understood that the rule would create extreme instability within the Republican caucus. That proved true in October when McCarthy became the first speaker in American history who was voted out of his position. With the low threshold whoever was speaker would always know that angering just one member could result in their downfall.

Those fishing fleets at night are quite a sight to behold. Last night time crossing I did was a while back, but got photos of one group at 41N 176W and another about 3 degrees farther east. They were small compared to the ones by mainland China, but still 80 or so miles long. Don't know who they were, but it was impressive.All those chinese trawlers are taking their toll on the ocean.

Of course this has NOTHING to do with 100's of MILLIONS of gallons of radioactive water being dumped into the Pacific by Japan/Tepco...

Anyone who disagrees with a Dem is always labeled, "Johnson, who is himself also an extreme right-wing"
LOL on calling Johnson, right wing, let alone extreme.
If you love the constitution, you're 'extreme' right wing.
Sometimes wonder if the new spending that Speaker Johnson just brought to the floor, there is a private meeting that some type of accounting is discussed that without more exaggerated spending we as a Nation will collapse into a black hole of financial insolvency. I don’t get it this move is out of character for him. What is behind the curtain?

I think this was a move to rein in the MTG, Matt Gaetz wing of the party and render them powerless to remove him the way they did McCarthy. Now they can make all the threats they want, but RINOs and Dems will protect him.
He had to wait until after the primaries so his constituents have no choice but to vote for him.
51% versus 49%. Throughout my life, I have awakened many mornings and had to accept the fact that I was rooted in the 49% camp. Sometimes it was a decision my extended family was forced to make. Other times it was a new Union contract that had been accepted by 51% of the membership. Often after a state election night the members of my community had approved a bond issue or property assessment tax that I had voted against. I closely followed and vocalized my opinions of the actions of the House of Representatives. Honestly I don't know if Johnson fell for the presentations by the CIA and the rest of the 3 letter agencies or he knew if the stonewalling was going to end up with the Senate doing an end run around the House of Representatives. The CIA just gave him a "story" to use when putting the legislation to a vote.
Most of us here are in the 49% camp. As you travel around start taking a close look at the Americans around you. 51% are willing to just go with the flow as America collapses into the black hole.
I was in a Walmart recently and observed a family with kids who needed a bath, a Mom that looked like a street person and a Dad that looked like he never worked a full 8 hour shift. Parents were each on their IPhone, kids were wild Indians...... My thought was "There goes the future of America".
Through out the Bible there are verses explaining ... "... there will be much suffering."
If this was true they wouldn't have to import a new potential voting base.
We've been cheated much longer than most would like to admit.

I think it’s because dogs use their nose to read pheromones like we read street signs. Sniff? bad=bite! I think their reasoning is pretty linear and they are not often troubled by self doubt in that situation.
They "won" the last elections without that voting base.

Alarming rate of teachers charged with raping young boys in America
A shocking number of female teachers are being charged with sexually abusing under-age students - with new cases being reported almost every week.
Cougars in the classroom: The alarming rate of teachers charged with raping young boys in America
- In the last year, dozens of teachers face sex-crimes charges involving students
- The crimes have happened in 16 states stretching from California to New York
- Many of these predatory teachers are married with their own children
Why is it the Democrats when in Minority still seem to get what they want bit yet when the Republicans are the Majority they seem to lose on every issue. Then the Republicans run on reelection essentially on saying "pick me I am not a Democrat" when in reality they really are Democrats. The majority of Republican leaders truly are RINOs.Johnson has been playing a weak hand. His message this week, to the Republicans, was get together as a block voting group or this is what you will be getting in the future.
Being in the 49% group gives a member the feeling of "We have won many, many battles"....... The focus should be on the war, not the battles.
There is a very good chance after the elections (State and National) there will be several states with a "Super Majority" Legislature. This could hold true for the US Congress as well. A minority that won't even be winning 49% of the time.

China's 'once in a century' floods: 127million on alert after storm
Heavy rain descended upon the southern province of Guangdong in recent days, swelling rivers by up to seven metres and raising fears of severe flooding.
Once, long ago, I was asked to volunteer to be a "demonstrator" by my local Sheriff's Department to train their Riot Squad. While it was a "practice day" both sides learned some valuable lessons. The Riot Squad, as a whole, was very quiet. The one big guy, standing 10' behind the front row of Deputies was only shouting "Hold The Line"... And they did. They had a few well padded Deputies designated to break through the line and they were immediately dealt with.
When I witness the actions of the Republicans in Congress.... I can hear those words of that big guy, dressed in black shouting "Hold the Line".
Until they 100% agree for all to "Hold the Line", they may win a few battles but will lose the war.

Silly, if he wanted a kid to "use" he could just apply to sponsor an unaccompanied "newcomer" minor like most pedophiles are doing now in the US. (Sarcasm font).
