The Mar-a-Lago Wave

Original Article

Posted By: Garnet, 8/14/2022 2:09:42 AM

For most of 2022, Democratic voters have been more ambivalent about participating in the fall midterms than their Republican counterparts. According to conventional Beltway wisdom, however, that enthusiasm gap has been narrowed by the recent Roe v. Wade ruling and the Jan. 6 hearings. It’s probable, though, that last Monday’s FBI raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate will reestablish the Republican advantage. This unprecedented action will likely energize GOP voters and drown any increase in Democratic enthusiasm beneath a red tsunami. The first poll to measure public response to the raid indicates that it has galvanized Republicans and Independents.

All of the independents and even some of the Dems are getting tired of this nonsense.

I have been faithfully voting for almost 60 years and will continue as long as I am alive. I can’t wait for November. I just hope the Republican Party can at least slow down the Dem’s vote fraud. They know now it’s their only hope.

As always, the left’s judgement on just about everything is clouded by their arrogance and feeling of moral superiority. Unfortunately when they control every institution in America our opinion doesn’t count for spit.

I fall in the independent category BUT I will not now vote for ANY Democrat. Sorry D's there were a few good ones here and there BUT they all fall in the Progressive Socialist melee. No more Dems ever and I will RUN to vote.

From what I’ve been reading, there was no narrowing of the gap by Roe and hardly anyone cared about the J6 committee. But the response to the raid has been overwhelming with PDT breaking all fund-raising records and polling as more popular than ever. The left never learns that sometimes you have to hit the brakes on crazy.

I think the Dems, FBI, DOJ and others are not yet through with Trump. I think this was just the first Shot of many to come before the Mid-Terms. That said, REPUBLICANS will gain more and more voters as the persecution goes on and on. In the end, they might yet get Trump if they charge him with CRIMES that he will have to fight in long, drawn out fights in Court. If that happens, he might have to step aside. But! if Democrats think they have won the fight, I say it will just be the beginning! If DeSantis steps in, he will win. Anyone who has been following how he has governed Florida knows he is no Pushover. He is Fearless and he won't hesitate to take over where Trump left off. He will take down the Powers that took down Trump, one by one. I guarantee it! In the end, we will get the last laugh when the FBI, DOJ and others are laying in a puddle of water!

I believe the dims have up their sleeves a very sinister and calculated electoral strategy to take out PDJT. How many of us know soft DJT voters who love his policies and track record but dislike intensely his personality? The softness of their support is that they ‘just don’t want to go through it all again’. Given that truth the dims will use every sledgehammer or tiny needle against the man to remind the soft voter (mostly suburban female) for the next two years that a vote for DJT is a guarantee that this all will continue forever if he runs again. They will never let up.

For those who view politics only through their Trump lenses, I fervently pray they wholeheartedly support the GOP in this year's elections for control of both houses of Congress. While Republican politicians aren't perfect, they are a darned sight better than any democrats. Plus, if Republicans take over the House with a huge margin, then Trump, if elected in '24, will not have to be dodging impeachments and taking back the Senate will allow Trump's court nominees to be approved and seated. Changes to our IC and federal law enforcement will be possible with control of Congress and the White House. Most importantly, in order to even survive as a nation until the '24 elections, a Republican Congress is necessary to blunt Biden's excessive tax and spend, open border, and hideous Green New Deal policies. Garland and perhaps Biden can be impeached and removed. After two years of Kamala, the democrats in '24 may as well throw in the towel.

I have a humble suggestion for PDJT, to be accomplished with the help of his landscape crew at Mar-A-Lago. Dedicate a suitably sized area to be renamed 'Lexington Green'. Be sure to include an enormous vessel in which to receive campaign contributions. Better not to have a guest register to sign.

The congressman, who is the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, told Fox News host Trey Gowdy the number has risen to 14 after the FBI raid at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.During a conversation about alleged politicization at the Justice Department, along with former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, Jordan made the case that the public has "figured it out" when it comes to what he characterized as the Left generating a lie, the "Big Media" reporting the lie, Big Tech amplifying the lie, and then both piling on Republicans

The Donald Trump revenge tour is in full swing. The former president has again proven that the 2016 makeover of the Republican Party was no one-off fluke. It was a seismic shift regarding the composition of the party base, which is bluer collar and working class, and the priorities of its voters. The neo-populist moment that burst onto the scene in the 2010 midterms with the Tea Party wave reached full maturation during the 2016 cycle. In 2022, Donald Trump’s endorsement not only carries weight—virtually all his endorsed candidates have won their primary races—he’s picking off those who joined the effort to impeach him on the bogus

There has to be one, right? The FBI doesn’t just go to a federal judge for a search warrant for the home of a former president on its own — and presumably a federal judge doesn’t just casually sign off on such a request, either. NBC’s Ken Dilanian urges caution in jumping to conclusions at this point, but states the obvious when saying that this had to have gotten approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland prior to the raid on Mar-a-Lago:(Snip) Dilanian’s correct that it’s no small matter to get a federal judge to sign off on a warrant, let alone one targeting a former president who

Newsom is calling for a boycott of Georgia by the entertainment industry. The workers in Georgia aren’t very happy about that.Democrat governors are pitching their states as an alternative home for businesses currently with deep ties to states like Georgia.

With inflation raging and the shadow of recession looming, it’s difficult to envision a worse time to pass a tax-and-spend bill like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Yet, that’s just what Senate Democrats did Sunday. It’s even harder to imagine that “moderate” Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), both of whom voted for the bill, believe it will live up to its Orwellian name. If so, they are at odds with the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), hundreds of economists, millions of Americans, and even Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

House conservatives, including the Republican Study Committee (RSC) led by Rep.

Banks' RSC office is circulating a memo highlighting 50 points Republicans say are reasons to vote against the bill. They range from $3 billion in spending on electric vehicles for the U.S. Postal Service to grants to "utilize diet and feed management to reduce enteric methane emissions from ruminants" – in other words, cow farts. "Democrats in Congress aren’t damaging American’s pocketbooks—they are trying to damage their way of life," Banks, R-Ind.,

Senator Elizabeth Warren told NBC News Tuesday night that she will not vote for a newly-introduced bipartisan bill that would enshrine federal abortion protections after the Supreme Court's recent ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, a tough blow to the nascent effort that shows it would lack the crucial support of all 50 Democratic senators. “The Kaine-Collins bill does not codify Roe,” she said plainly, saying “no” she wouldn’t vote for it. Pressed on if this was a question of letting the perfect be the enemy of the good on this, she said “the problem here is this bill is not an obvious improvement over where we stand right now.”

Joe Manchin, the Democratic U.S. senator from West Virginia, may finally see the writing on the wall and realize his time in politics is coming to an end. Manchin, who held onto his Senate seat by just over 3 percent during his most recent reelection bid, is likely to squander any of the goodwill he has generated among his constituents with his recently declared support for the latest reconciliation bill in the Senate. After presenting himself as a foil to many of the Biden administration’s leftist legislative goals, Manchin has come to an agreement with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer about dedicating “hundreds of billions” of federal

Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” former FBI agent Peter Strzok weighed in on the department’s recent raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Trump described the raid as putting his home “under siege” in a move “that has never happened to a President of the United States before.” Host Joe Scarborough asked Strzok if there was any reason the American people should not trust the FBI. Strzok said that “the American public should trust what the FBI is doing” in seizing documents from Trump’s home. “[A]bsolutely, the American public should trust what the FBI is doing,” Strzok advised.

France is in the midst of its fourth heat wave as authorities claim that it is the worst drought in modern history, the Associated Press reported last week. Authorities are beginning to issue water rationing, and farmers are already reporting drops in the production of soy, sunflower, and corn, the AP added. Unfortunately, the heat wave is also bringing wildfires that have become difficult to deal with. Wildfires in northern Spain and France, for instance, caused the evacuation of thousands of residents.
