Excellent insight!
Especially your observation about playing the “COVID CARD”.
It’s being used in the same way as the “RACE CARD” isn’t it?
Of course the race card has been so overused and abused that it has become a laughable joke and no longer has any legitimacy or impact with reasonable, thinking people.
Well, I have to admit that I’ve thought of using the covid pass myself lol.
A couple of months ago I ordered a pizza to pick up and bring home on the way back from the farm. I am nervous when walking on very much snow and ice (petrified of falling), so I was going to ask the pizza place if I could put it on my charge card over the phone, then if someone would pop it outside and slip it in my back seat when I pulled up......because covid and all lol.
Well, they didn’t take cards over the phone and I’d have to go in with my card. I cancelled the pizza because it wasn’t worth slipping on ice for, but I thought if I said “covid”, it would open the door for me lol. Wrong.

As a Member of Congress, I am committed to restoring the faith of the American people in our elections - that they are free, fair, secure, and according to the United States Constitution.

Biden Admin Moves to Make Air Conditioners Too Expensive for Americans
Excerpt:
...The crackdown on air conditioners and refrigerators has been underway for a while now. But Biden, Democrats and some Republicans are really ramping it up.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking a major step Monday to battle climate change with the formal proposal of a rule phasing down the use of planet-warming gases called hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which are used as refrigerants, the agency announced Monday.
The reduction will decrease HFC production and use in the U.S. by 85 percent over the next 15 years. The rule is being issued under a law passed last year by Congress.
The agency said it will create an allocation and trading program under which it will issue an allowance for how much of the gases can be used for 2022 by Oct. 1.
...You can thank the usual gang for screwing Americans on this.
The Trump administration rolled back Obama administration policies aiming to fulfill the countryโs commitment to reduce HFCs in a 2016 international agreement called the Kigali Amendment.
The rule came after bipartisan lawmakers agreed to pass a law requiring the phasedown of the use of HFCs by 2036, which was championed by Sens. Tom Carper (D-Del.) and John Kennedy (R-La.).
The provision was incorporated into a government spending bill after a compromise with Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), which added language preventing states from passing their own stricter HFC regulations for at least five years.
...Americans lose. Some companies make more money. Environmentalists get closer to their endgame.
The package reconciles some of the key provisions from Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Joe Manchinโs sweeping bipartisan energy bill, the American Energy Innovation Act, and House Democratsโ similar Clean Economy Jobs and Innovation Act.
Murkowski and Manchinโs bill, considered the most comprehensive update to U.S. energy law in more than a decade, fell apart before the coronavirus pandemic because of a dispute over whether to allow a vote on a bipartisan amendment to limit chemical coolants called hydrofluorocarbons, or HFCs, used in air conditioners and refrigerators.
***
When Trump returns he will need to destroy corrupt organizations like the EPA. Thank you Richard Nixon for creating one of the most nefarious agencies intending to destroy the American way of life.

I think when Stefanik 1st came to Congress she was not on the Trump Train but I think she is fully now.
She really impressed me during the FAKE Impeachment.
Unlike the previous DOJ, biden DOJ wastes no time defending the socialist agenda.
Yes, she did a good job.
Maybe it’s the Bush admin history, with Elise, that has me skeptical.
If PDJT endorses her, then....good for Elise!
I sure hope she’s not another traitor RINO, in disguise.
I agree....she was great during the fake impeachment sham show.
The previous DOJ was never the Trump DOJ, comprised of mostly the same people as now only with the head changed and we learned that whoever the AG was it didn’t matter much.
This is true.
I was all on the Bush bandwagon too, but I learned my lesson.
W today would have to run as a dim, would fit in nicely there.
When I read anything he is spouting today it sounds like dim talking points.
Yep.
Yep....talk about a wolf, in sheep’s clothing....that’s W.
He had most all of us fooled, at one time, didn’t he?
And, now....to think his nephew actually believes that we Texans want anything to do w/ANOTHER DAM BUSH, as Gov.
Talk about living in alternate realities.
