Regarding Mitt Romney...

Original Article

It is said that an unreliable ally is worse than a sworn enemy. This is because you expect the enemy to act against you. But when an ally either chooses to be a bystander when you are attacked or sides with your assailant to attack you, the treachery is both shocking and unforgivable. One such consistently untrustworthy and unreliable ‘ally’ who has been a been a disappointment is Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah. His latest betrayal came during a Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee hearing on Tuesday. Romney was the sole HELP Committee Republican to vote against lifting the mask and vaccine mandates in the federal Head Start program.

Perhaps one of our long term, principled and courageous Romney supporters can remind us what a great human being this guy is, and how his unique leadership is so necessary. The real Pulitzer goes to whoever digs into Romney, bain and Ukraine. Romney and Burisma. Or Romney Bain and Chinese holding companies.

For Romney to have called Tulsi Gabbard treasonous shows that the man has no business in any leadership role. It is difficult to call Romney a traitor because there are so many in the GOP that are exactly like him, and everyone knows that he is a bitter Democrat masquerading as a carpetbagging Republican.

You know that a Republican is a traitor and a loser when Democrats praise him/her while they're still alive. The McCain Effect.

We the people have very few allies in the Washington cesspool. That's why we need President Trump and a slew of real conservatives in Congress to start draining the swamp. The swamp will not go down easily. It is a generational fight.

#5, there is no such thing as a real conservative in Congress. As soon as any elected representative is seated they throw out all promises and principles and immediately shift into high gear to get as rich as possible while they can. Truly, money is the root of all evil.

Romney is playing his designated part...former GOP presidential nominee, savior of the Olympics, and all-around nice guy. He was ENDORSED by PDT, you may recall. And his role in the UNIPARTY political play it to be that independent, moderate, principled Republican who saw through the Trump fog and courageously called him out, refusing to knuckle under to the Trumpistas. Who complains about Romney? Only "real conservatives". He is certainly supported by those various "moderate" Republicans. And here's the sad fact: The GOP needs them to win elections. The hatred of Trump is much like the residual intra-party hatred for Goldwater Republicans in '64. And one of those leaders was another fellow named Romney...

That Romney has never been a reliable Republican isn't news. I would consider Romney somewhere between an old style democrap from the 50's or 60's, and someone who back during the red scare in the 50's would be seen as a communist.

Romney is a prime example of the greasy, oily and slimy personality that all the kids beat up in Jr. and Sr. high school. Unless he pays them, nobody is willing to hang around much with Romney. It is not just Biden/Obama and their corruption that needs an archeology team of diggers, but Romney and his tenure at Bain Capital. I read a bit about that a few years ago. The big name retailers who filed for bankruptcy over the years? Good chance those were meddled with by Romney and his managers at Bain for the purpose of making them pots of money. There as I recall was about a list of around 200 recognizable name brand companies that Bain messed with during Romney's time. Didn't matter then, doesn't matter now that people lost their businesses, jobs and probably pensions. Romney and company made theirs so that is that.

Mittens is so actively ingratiating himself to the Democrats, I believe he is positioning himself to be a "compromise, bipartisan" pick if both Sleepy Joe and Kamala are forced from office. That is the only goal that makes sense of his recent actions.

Kamala Harris is a nightmare to work for, reportedly refusing to do her 'homework' her staff prepare for her and then blaming staff when her ignorance makes her a laughingstock to the public. Not surprisingly, she hasn't been able to keep staff. That was news a few months ago, and the bad public relations from it died down with the news cycle. But it doesn't mean the flight still isn't happening.

“He affects unselfishness, but is in reality fanatically, even maniacally, self-centered.... He is childlike in his pursuit of pleasure, but shrewd and willful in his studied neglect of responsibility. His sensibilities are exquisitely tender, and yet he has a talent for causing pain...He professes universal tolerance and sweetness to all, though is willing to put his friends through shame, fear, and harm rather than see his own comfort threatened.” No, this quote does not refer to Alec Baldwin, apt though it may seem. It is drawn from an essay about Harold Skimpole, a character in Charles Dickens’ Bleak House.

It made headlines on Sunday, when Sen. Mitt Romney (RINO – Utah), claimed that Tulsi Gabbard had committed “treason” by noting, accurately and with concern, that the U.S. has admitted that there are unsecured biolabs in the path of the Russian military. Romney, however, is not the only one who has taken pro-Ukraine cheerleading to such heights that anyone who’s not out there cheering with him must be arrested. This scary, un-American trend abandons the Constitution, American law, and logic.

I won’t lie: I’m a Tucker Carlson fan. He is willing to speak honestly about topics others ignore, sugarcoat, or lie about. Even when I don’t agree with him, I find him worthwhile, and never more so than his Friday night monologue about Biden’s latest, terrifying power grab and how our government is destroying the American economy. It was a tour de force and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Tucker opened with something I’d meant to write about and now don’t need to: Without a single pause, the Biden administration slipped effortlessly from COVID emergency powers

On February 26, the Washington Post commemorated the ten-year anniversary of Trayvon Martin’s death with a loving and outrageously dishonest video tribute to the fallen 17-year-old. Even more troubling, columnist Charles Blow enlisted former president Barack Obama in this mendacious rewrite of recent history. On Friday morning, March 4, I sent an email to “corrections.” I sent the same email to managing editor Sally Buzbee and several other relevant editors. What follows is what I wrote:

Hurricane Katrina had nothing on the collective panty wetting by the regime media when Governor Ron DeSantis told a bunch of teens to divest themselves of their ridiculous face thongs. Apparently, older males teaching younger ones not to act like serfs is now “bullying” instead of exactly what should happen. Yeah, if there’s one thing America has too much of it is positive male influences on younger men. Now, if the Governor’s righteous chastisement constitutes bullying – which it doesn’t, but go with it – then let’s have more bullying.

A same-sex kiss has been restored to the final cut of Pixar’s upcoming animated film Lightyear after LGBTQIA2S+ employees and their allies complained that Disney executives had censored “overtly gay affection” in the company’s films, according to a report by Variety. A source close to the production told Variety that Lightyear features a female lead who is in a relationship with another woman, and a kiss between the two characters had been cut from the film. The gay kiss was added back into the movie last week, following the outrage from a woke mob at Pixar Animation Studios.(Snip)Earlier this month, DeSantis debunked leftist falsehoods on the bill,

Dr. Anthony Fauci said in a new interview that he is considering stepping away from the position he’d held since 1984. Fauci, the longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), was asked during a podcast released March 18 whether he was mulling retirement or transitioning to a less-demanding job. “I certainly am because I’ve got to do it sometime,” Fauci, 81, said. “I can’t stay at this job forever, unless my staff is going to find me slumped over my desk one day. I’d rather not do that,” he added. Fauci was appointed to his position in 1984 during the Reagan administration.
