No one imagined this was feasible. Every expert put the timeline for repair at around a year. However, the git r’ done crews and the Florida Dept of Transportation have accomplished a massive feat of reconstruction in phenomenal time. Major kudos to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the construction crews who worked every hour of every day, day and night, for two straight weeks and have created/built a temporary bridge to Sanibel Island.

There were WMDs in Iraq

Despite evidence to the contrary, there is the continued belief that there were no weapons of mass destruction found in Iraq. Between the Democrats, the media who serve as their propagandist, and those who have an irrational hatred of George W. Bush, there has been a refusal to give up the lie that nothing was found in Iraq.
One of the reasons given by former President Bush for going into Iraq – beyond Hussein’s government funding international terrorist activities that did target Americans – was weapons of mass destruction were in fact found. In other words, the weapons were not the only reason, but also the financing of international terrorism.
Virginia’s new Republican governor, Glenn Youngkin, expanded the focus of his chief diversity, opportunity, and inclusion officer to include restoring equal economic opportunity for all citizens, creating a climate that allows for diversity of thought, restoring constitutionally protected rights in the Commonwealth, and fighting for the unborn.
In Youngkin’s 10th executive order, the governor appointed vice president of the Heritage Foundation’s Feulner Institute, Angela Sailor, as replacement director of the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI), after dismissing the former chief, Janice Underwood, and her four staffers. He also elevated the role to a Cabinet-level position under the new title of “Commonwealth Chief Diversity, Opportunity, & Inclusion Officer.”
Can Republicans move beyond just completing the original, necessary Trump agenda on closing the border, legal-only immigration, deterrence against China, energy production, immunity from optional military engagements in the Middle East, industrial and manufacturing resurgence in the Rust Belt and conservative judicial appointments?
What would such a new Contract with America entail, if it were indeed wise before the midterms to advertise such a confident, Newt Gingrich-like strategy for regaining the House? And should a menu be more rather than less detailed? What about the follow-up for a later Republican presidency?
2021’s Man of the Year
6 replies
A number of people distinguished themselves on the public stage in 2021, but the Man of the Year stands out pretty clearly: he is Ron DeSantis. DeSantis was a model of rational governance, and under his leadership Florida has moved to the forefront not just as a destination for blue-state refugees, but as a famously well-governed state. Even extreme leftists know enough to go to Florida when they can.

Joe Biden on Wednesday traveled to Vail, Colorado and delivered remarks on protecting and preserving the state’s outdoor spaces.
Blue collar Joe Biden wanted everyone to know he’s a relatable guy who struggled to make ends meet.
Old Joe from Scranton said he taught his boys – and his entire family – how to ski in Vail, Colorado.
Because everyone can afford ski trips to Vail.
“I taught my boys to ski here. I taught my family to ski here… For us easterners, we talk about that at dinner. No, I’m serious. All those memories that you all understandably take for granted, they’re a big deal where I come from,” Biden said.
Former Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) on Thursday said that former President Trump’s “unelectability will be palpable” by the 2024 presidential election and that the next Republican nominee will likely be someone else.
“I think Trump’s unelectability will be palpable by then. We all know that he will lose. … We all know that he is so much more likely to lose the White House than anybody else running for president on our side of the aisle, so why would we want to go with that?” Ryan said in an interview with Teneo for its “Insights Series.” Ryan is vice chairman of Teneo, a public relations
Vice President Kamala Harris has mastered the art of using a hundred words when ten would suffice. She’s also mastered the art of throwing them together in a way that leaves people trying to figure out exactly what she is saying.
During an appearance on “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Harris discussed President Joe Biden’s recent declaration on marijuana, abortion and the importance of voting in the midterm elections.
But somewhere along the line, Harris dropped this gem: (Tweet/Video) “When you see our kids, and I truly believe that they are our children, they are the children of our country, of our communities, I mean,
On Tuesday Joe Biden threatened US ally Saudi Arabia during his CNN interview. Biden told Jake Tapper Saudi Arabia will face “consequences” for its oil production cuts announced this past week.
Less than 24 hours later on Wednesday night the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry released a public statement on social media.
The Kingdom confirmed that Joe Biden attempted to coerce them to cut oil prices until AFTER the election.
In the Foreign Ministry’s statement, the kingdom confirms that Joe Biden pressured the Saudi royalty to delay cuts in output and lower oil costs for another month until after the midterm election.
The Treasury Department is auditing the migrant flights authorized by Governor Ron DeSantis to assess whether the expenditures were appropriate.
In response to a petition from Democratic lawmakers, the department’s inspector general wrote in an October 7 letter that the agency would investigate whether Florida misused federal funds to relocate illegal immigrants to Martha’s Vineyard. The DeSantis administration has maintained that the trips were approved on a bipartisan basis by the state legislature in a budget package many months ago.
Richard K. Delmar, deputy inspector general for the Treasury Department, told Senator Ed Markey and five other Democrats that he intended “to get this work underway as soon as possible”
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Wednesday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that the January 6 House Select Committee has a lot of new evidence to present at the hearing Thursday.
Anchor Wolf Blitzer asked, “What new evidence can we expect your committee to lay out in tomorrow’s hearing?”
Raskin said, “Well, we have a bunch of new documentary evidence and statements that establish the central role that Donald Trump played in his overwhelming culpability in these events. I don’t think any reasonable, open-minded observer could watch what we’re going to do tomorrow and what we’ve done over the course of these hearings, put it all together, and not come away with one conclusion,
Ever since the experimental Covid-19 ‘vaccine’ was introduced, a staggering and horrifying phenomenon has been sweeping the Western world. We have seen it happen to athletes, performers, musicians, news anchors, soldiers, high schoolers, healthcare workers, random people, politicians, and so on. People have been dropping to the ground like flies because of heart-related issues that are, in virtually every case, caused by an adverse reaction to the mRNA jab.
It’s undeniable; the rise in these life-threatening incidents has a clear and proven culprit (as numerous studies have shown a clear link between the mRNA spike protein and the litany of complications that are arising).
The Treasury Department inspector general confirmed in a letter to Democratic lawmakers that the agency is planning to audit whether spending by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on migrant flights was improper.
The lawmakers asked the Treasury Department to look into whether Florida improperly used American Rescue Plan funds for the migrant flights to Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts, which drew widespread media attention.
Florida lawmakers authorized a $12 million migrant program funded with interest earnings from the federal Coronavirus State Fiscal Recovery Fund, according to documents.
It's no secret that billionaire philanthropist and financier George Soros has had a hand in the rise of many major political players. From his heavy investment in the sheriffs in Arizona to his funding of grassroots activists in Ferguson, Soros's money and influence seem to be nestled in every nook and cranny across the country. But just in the past month, two judges in two different states have stood up against prominent figures that are heavily funded by Soros: Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and Virginia's Loudoun County commonwealth attorney Buta Biberaj.

Court ruling 27 replies
A top election official in Pennsylvania says the state will disregard the U.S. Supreme Court's guidance on counting mail-in ballots arriving in envelopes with typos or incorrect dates, saying that the state's Commonwealth Court has already established the practice as licit.
Pennsylvania's election laws have historically required voters to include a signature and date on the outside of return envelopes when voting by mail.
However, acting Secretary of State Leigh Chapman announced that Pennsylvania election officials should continue counting ballots that arrive with improperly filled-out envelopes, in accordance with the Commonwealth Court's previous ruling on the matter.
Alex Jones has been ordered to pay a total of $965 million in damages to the plaintiffs of the defamation trial surrounding his lies about the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting. The 15 plaintiffs of the case included the relatives of eight Sandy Hook victims, as well as a former FBI agent suing Jones.
A Connecticut jury reached a unanimous verdict Wednesday afternoon before the judge read aloud a detailed report of the various damages owed to each plaintiff by Jones and his media company, Free Speech Systems.
Jones had already been found liable for defamation for spreading disinformation about the shooting, which killed 20

Comments:
When elected officials intentionally set the conditions for capitalism to succeed, and then get out of the way to let the free market work, the results can be stunningly praiseworthy. Governor DeSantis understands the benefit of reducing the burden of bureaucratic red tape. We need his brand of leadership multiplied at local, state, and federal levels everywhere throughout the USA.
