Fri, 2025-02-07 01:00 +0000
President Trump’s victory has tossed our nation’s Ship of State a life-preserver. Living up to the MAGA expectations will be a difficult task to turn the ship around, and it promises to be equivalent to threading a needle without an eye.

Thu, 2025-02-06 21:00 +0000
This is no longer a challenge. The Democrats are so easy to excite to paranoia that we may have to find another group to play with.

Ken Weyler YDC PR Crisis Word Salad

Thu, 2025-02-06 19:00 +0000
Dear Representatives, Today’s apology is a word salad, and it appears to have been created with the NHCADSV – a compromised agency in the YDC cases.

Thu, 2025-02-06 17:00 +0000
Can You Say, Insurrection? Democrats have been rudderless for weeks, lost political minorities who had their agenda flushed down the proverbial toilet.

Mr. Speaker: Is it Money Laundering Or Something Else?

Thu, 2025-02-06 13:00 +0000
While we wait for the Committee to Elect House Republicans (CTEHR) to explain where nearly 170,000.00 dollars went between 2022 and 2024, other related matters require our attention. Let me preface with this. If you are married, it is not a good look if you are seen frequently in public in the private company of ... Read more

Wyoming Could Ban Electronic Voting Machines

Wed, 2025-02-05 13:00 +0000
