get vote on Wednesday

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 6/20/2023 11:28:54 PM

The House is set to vote on a revamped resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) on Wednesday after the chamber blocked a similar measure targeting the California Democrat last week. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) called the revised measure to the floor as a privileged resolution on Tuesday, which forces the House to take action on the measure. Democrats are expected to make a procedural motion to table the measure when it comes to the floor for a vote on Wednesday, which would require majority support. The move from Luna comes after the House blocked her initial Schiff censure resolution last week. Twenty Republicans joined Democrats

Censure is very mild punishment for what Schiff has done. If any Republican cannot bring himself to vote for censure, they should be removed from all committee assignments and ostracized by the party.

You cannot shame a Democrat. Schiff will shrug off the censure and make jokes about it at DC cocktail parties.

How about amending the censure motion to include tar, feathers, and being paraded naked down Pennsylvania Ave?

RE: "“I’m proud to have stood up to Trump and defended our democracy and I will continue to do so no matter what they throw my way. But this is the authors of the big lie attacking me for telling the truth. And history will judge them to have failed to have the courage to stand up to a corrupt president but consoled themselves by attacking someone who did,” he added." TYPICAL democrat drivel that misleads the thinking public. TYPICAL of a democrat!!!

Russian Coup Update: It Ends With a Whimper

Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry “Porn ‘Stache” Peskov, has announced the outline of a deal to end the coup d’etat by Wagner Group PMC boss Yevgeny Prigozhin. According to Peskov, all charges pending against Prigozhin will be dropped, and Prigozhin will take up residence in Belarus. No word if “taking up residence in Belarus” is like sending your old dog to a “farm in the country.” The Wagner fighters who did not take part in the rebellion will be offered contracts to serve as soldiers in the regular Russian Army. Those men who participated in the revolt will be given pardons and, I’m just guessing about this, discharged from the Army.

The Walt Disney Co. is estimated to have lost a stunning $890 million on its last eight studio releases, including The Little Mermaid and Elemental, according to a box office analyst. Disney could see even more red ink since these titles are all destined for the Disney+ streaming service instead of other streamers, like Netflix or Amazon Prime Video, where they could generate additional revenue. The YouTube box office analyst known as Valliant Renegade laid out his argument in a recent video in which he estimated that many Disney blockbusters actually lost money or barely broke even during their theatrical runs despite the news media spinning them as hits.

Russian mercenary group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin will move to Belarus and have criminal charges against him dropped, the Kremlin has said, after he pulled his fighters back from advancing on Moscow. Prigozhin had earlier told his troops heading towards the Russian capital to turn back, saying he wants to avoid shedding Russian blood. In an audio message, Prigozhin said his fighters - part of the private mercenary Wagner Group - would return to their bases. He said that while his men were just 120 miles from Moscow, he decided to turn them back to avoid "shedding Russian blood".

Oh, not yet. Regular Russian army formations still battle on the lines in the Donbas and near Kherson. Vladimir Putin ordered a new blast of missile attacks on Ukrainian cities last night as well. Putin still holds Crimea. However, the rebellion of Yevgeny Prigozhin and the Wagner Group and their strategic execution have made it impossible for Russia to maintain its occupation, let alone win a war. If you have not yet read John’s excellent post this morning on the events unfolding over the last day in Russia, do so now.

The Wagner Group, a mercenary force led by Yevgeny Prigozhin, has taken control of parts of the southern Russian city Rostov-on-Don in a move Russian President Vladimir Putin had called “a stab in the back” to “our county and our people.” “We’re blockading the city of Rostov and going to Moscow,” Prigozhin said in a video which surfaced on Saturday. Putin has vowed “decisive actions” to quell this “armed rebellion” as units across southwestern Russia scrambled to intercept the force. A “counterterrorist operation regime” was declared in Moscow given authorities upgraded emergency powers, the New York Times reports. Local residents have been instructed to avoid driving on roads and stay home.

Pretty much everyone now understands that for years, Joe Biden has been taking bribes from foreign countries and interests. Whatever influence he had in the Senate and as vice president has been peddled around the globe, often by his son Hunter. Biden’s repeated claims that he knew nothing about his son’s business dealings is absurd, given that the only business Hunter was involved in was selling Joe’s influence. The most recent blow is the WhatsApp message that Scott wrote about here. In keeping with the Democrats’ determination to force Biden off the 2024 ticket, the embargo on news about his corruption is lifting.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Russian mercenary outfit Wagner Group, said the Russian army attacked his troops on Friday. "We were ready to make concessions to the defense ministry, surrender our weapons," Prigozhin said in an audio message released by his representatives. "Today, seeing that we have not been broken, they conducted missile strikes at our rear camps." The Wagner head said the "evil" of the Russian leadership must be stopped. "Those who destroyed our lads, who destroyed the lives of many tens of thousands of Russian soldiers, will be punished. I ask that no one other resistance," Prigozhin said. "There are 25,000 of us

The head of Russia's Wagner mercenary group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, said the Kremlin's justifications for its invasion of Ukraine are based on lies, in another extraordinary attack on the country's military and political leadership. Prigozhin, a key ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a video posted Friday contradicted the public explanations for the war, including the central claim made by Putin that the 2022 invasion was necessary to prevent an attack from Ukraine. Since launching the war, Putin has painted it as a defensive operation to protect Russia. He's claimed it was needed to stop imminent large-scale attacks from Ukraine on largely Russian-speaking eastern regions in Donbas

Washington — The Supreme Court on Friday cleared the way for the Biden administration to reinstate rules that instruct Immigration and Customs Enforcement to focus its deportation efforts in the U.S. interior on immigrants with serious criminal convictions and those deemed to threaten national security. The court found that Texas and Louisiana, the two states that challenged the administration's guidelines, lacked standing to bring the suit, formally known as United States v. Texas. The ruling was 8-1, with only Justice Samuel Alito dissenting. Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote the opinion for the majority, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Is this another sign that the Democrats are preparing to move on from Joe Biden in 2024? I don’t know, but CNN’s newfound willingness to fact-check Biden seems significant. Here, CNN finds that pretty much everything Biden says about firearms, among other things, is wrong: He made at least five false claims related to guns, a subject on which he has repeatedly been inaccurate during his presidency. He also made a false claim about the extent of his support from environmental groups. And he used incorrect figures about the population of Africa, his own travel history and how much renewable energy Texas uses.

National Hockey League (NHL) teams will no longer wear rainbow-colored LGBTQ-themed jerseys during pregame warmups for Pride nights. NHL Pride Nights became a hot topic of conversation earlier this year when Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov refused to participate in his team’s Pride Night due to his orthodox Christian faith, sparking outrage from leftists who proceeded to accuse him of bigotry and homophobia. However, the Philadelphia Flyers kept him in the lineup, and the team even went on to win the game against the Anaheim Ducks.

Hunter Biden’s slap-on-the-wrist plea deal after failing to pay taxes on millions of dollars in income, and a felony gun charge he won’t be prosecuted for, follows a long history of Biden family members running afoul of the law — and skating.“The Biden family are beginning to make the Medicis look like small-time operators,” said George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley. “That fact that it took over five years to even secure a plea on a couple of small misdemeanors is a testament to a family that has leveraged Joe Biden public positions into a fortune of foreign influence peddling.”

Christie claimed that Trump is “unwilling to take responsibility” and was swiftly met with audible disapproval from the audience. “I’m running because he has let us down,” Christie said over loud boos from the crowd. “Because he is unwilling, he is unwilling to take responsibility for any of the mistakes he has made. Any of the faults that he has, any of the things that he’s done and that is not leadership everybody, that’s a failure of leadership.”
