DeSantis has said he supports red flag laws, and Florida has on in place signed by Rick Scott
Trump once said he supported them too, but dropped it later after massive pushback pic.twitter.com/ujaCA6k1T7— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) June 17, 2022
That would make more sense, than this....from what we’re hearing, so far.
Why can’t they just be Republicans, rather than Log Cabin....or any ID Republicans?
Isn't he running for governor? If he wins, he would turn around the next month & run for President?
At least if he was Trump's VP, there would be a lag before Trump would have to announce a VP pick.
The problem with red flag laws is bureaucrats turn them into people have their 2nd amendment rights taken away because the authorities don’t like their political views, or an ex spouse or coworker falsely reports violence just to get even,, etc., and they are punished without due process.
They may promise it won’t happen but NO ONE should believe them.
JUST IN – Fed Chair Powell: “Rapid changes are taking place in the global monetary system that may affect the international role of the dollar.” 👀— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) June 17, 2022

And, this ....
...Powell cited the importance of the dollar in global financing, noting in particular the significance of vehicles such as the one the Fed put in place during the Covid pandemic that loaned greenbacks to global central banks in need of liquidity.
He also noted coming changes in the global financial system, including the use of digital currencies and payments systems like FedNow, a service expected to come online in 2023.
A digital currency, as has been discussed by Fed officials, could help support the dollar as the world's reserve currency, he said.
“Looking forward, rapid changes are taking place in the global monetary system that may affect the international role of the dollar in the future,” Powell added....
At those conventions, different groups have booths, usually to give out literature on specific issues.
Why deny the Log Cabin Republicans? Catering to the right version of woke and don’t want to offend?
Did you read some of the comments, like 10 and 12? This is political parties, not religious sects. Maybe that’s why they want a booth.
State GOP chairman Steve Munisteri confirmed to The Huffington Post that groups advocating for gay rights are not allowed to put up booths at the convention, which runs from June 5 to 7. The issue, he explained, is that their position runs counter to the current party platform, which the state GOP adopted in 2012. A policy was established at the last convention, that groups wanting to set up booths can’t advocate for positions that contradict the platform.
“We affirm that the practice of homosexuality tears at the fabric of society and contributes to the breakdown of the family unit,” it adds. “Homosexuality must not be presented as an acceptable ‘alternative’ lifestyle, in public policy, nor should ‘family’ be redefined to include homosexual ‘couples.’”

All I can say is I’m glad President Trump didn’t think that way politically.
Is it DeSantis or some group that represents themselves as DeSantis for President? I’m sure never Trumpers would love to divide the party.
THANK YOU for posting!
I was glad to see this.
National Police Association sues feds over Border Patrol agents falsely accused of ‘whipping’ illegal immigrants
DATED: JUNE 16, 2022 BY SHARYL ATTKISSON
The following information is from the National Police Association
The National Police Association (NPA) is suing the Biden Administration over documentation that will illustrate and prove that accusations made against Border Patrol agents for allegedly “whipping migrants” was false and known by the federal agencies - Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The NPA filed the lawsuit after DHS and CBP failed to reply to its Feb. 22, 2022, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for the documentation.
The lawsuit pertains to the following incident, as per the NPA:
On September 19, 2021, mounted Border Patrol agents conducting routine protection duties were photographed intercepting illegal aliens attempting to cross into the United States. Some of those photographs captured the agents using their reins in a twirling motion to direct the horses and to keep the migrants at a distance. Some photos showed the agents taking hold of the migrants to push them away from the horses to protect the migrants from being stepped on.
Upon publication of the photos, the agents were falsely accused of “whipping” the migrants. This despite the freelance reporter who took the photos stating no such thing happened. The official investigation came immediately. It was followed just as quickly with false and defamatory attacks against the reputations of the agents from the highest levels of government.
The NPA’s FOIA request is for the purpose of disclosing communications which prove the Administration knew or should have known that their accusations against the Board Patrol agents were false when made or immediately thereafter.
Despite the Administration knowing their accusations against the Board Patrol agents were false no apologies have been forthcoming and the agents have remained on administrative duty pending the results of the investigation which must have cleared them months ago.
NPA spokesperson Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith (Ret.) said “Recent media reports indicate the Administration is planning to charge the agents with “administrative violations” to save face and prevent the need to admit the whipping accusations were false, defamatory, and unconscionable.
We believe our lawsuit will result in DHS and CBP conforming to the law and handing over the communications and documents that prove the Administration knew their accusations against these agents were false and took no corrective action.
Americans know who is to blame for our current energy crisis.
Biden said he would do this, and he did. pic.twitter.com/JK2HtfBmSG— Power The Future (@powerthefuture) June 17, 2022
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll, sponsored by Matt Palumbo’s MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN for Friday shows that 42% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Biden’s job performance. Fifty-seven percent (57%) disapprove.
I'm not sure
I’m sure never Trumpers would love to divide the party.
True. They will stop at nothing. Since DeSantis is strongly aligned with MAGA, those supporting him against Trump would probably turn around & stab him in the back the next day if he did prevail over Trump.
Trump/DeSantis would be unstoppable.
Great video & the truth. Although they could have added about 50 more clips of Brandon saying he was going to destroy fossil fuels.
Maybe we need red flag laws for people’s driver’s licenses so leftist terrorists like this cannot use vehicles as weapons of war!🚩🚩🚩 https://t.co/TZKl2gfDcC— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) June 17, 2022

Thank you, Nat’l Police Association. They spell it out, perfectly.
So sick of this regime/leftists going after those who put their lives on the line, to protect us.
Went to Slaveway early before the rush, shopping was never fun but is now sickening.
Just turned on Newsmax and am waiting for the REAL President to speak.
Thanks for the reminder.
I see Rick Santorum on, now, talking about Ms Piggy Cheney....and, I have it on mute, til RPOTUS speech is aired.
This is what it is going to take, sue these evil peeps into oblivion.
Parents allege school taught first graders about gender dysphoria without their consent
PITTSBURGH (TND) — Parents are suing a school district, its leaders, its school board, and a first-grade teacher for violating their civil and constitutional rights after their children were allegedly taught about gender identity without parental consent.
The suit was filed by parents Carmilla Tatel, Stacy Dunn, and Gretchen Melton, who argue their parental right under federal civil rights law to direct the education and upbringing of their children, as well as their First Amendment rights, were violated as a result of what took place.
The complaint alleges that Megan Williams, a first-grade teacher at Jefferson Elementary School, which is part of the Mt. Lebanon School District located in Pittsburgh, violated the parent’s rights when she injected her personal beliefs around gender dysphoria and transgender transitioning into her first-grade classroom.
Among the instruction on those topics that Williams allegedly gave was a video she played for the six and seven-year-olds called “Jacob’s New Dress,” according to the complaint.
Williams also began the process of interjecting her own personal life and views into the classroom, explaining that her child had worn an ‘Elsa dress’ for Halloween,” the complaint says. It also alleges that Williams “explained to her students that sometimes ‘parents are wrong’ and parents and doctors ‘make mistakes’ when they bring a child home from the hospital.
“The child of one of the Plaintiffs explained to his mother that Williams had told him, ‘I can wear a dress and have hair like my mom,’” the complaint continues, noting Williams targeted one of the plaintiff’s children for “repeated approaches about gender dysphoria” and told him not to tell his parents about their conversations.
Other instruction the plaintiffs objected to was William’s use of books like “When Aiden Became a Brother” and “Introducing Teddy.”
