LOL!
*ZING!*
My sister gave me a copy of “Radio’s Greatest of All Time Rush Limbaugh” by Kathryn and David Limbaugh for Christmas.
I have been reading it slowly, savoring every minute.
I miss Rush so much!

GOP reps spar with Oversight Dems at border hearing over ‘white nationalist’ claim
There were over 251,000 migrant encounters in December
Adam ShawBy Adam Shaw | Fox News
Republicans on the House Oversight Committee took aim at a tweet put out by their Democratic counterparts which accused them of fueling “white nationalist conspiracy theories” with a hearing on security at the southern border.
Chairman James Comer highlighted the tweet at the opening of the hearing, which features Border Patrol agents and is on “the front lines of the border crisis.”
Oversight Committee Democrats had tweeted a “good morning and good luck” to everyone except Republican members “who are using today’s hearing to amplify white nationalist conspiracy theories instead of a comprehensive solution to protect our borders and strengthen our immigration system.”
Comer called the tweet “disturbing” and warned that the tweet violates House rules.
Oversight Committee Democrats
@OversightDems
Good morning and good luck to everyone except @GOPoversight members who are using today’s hearing to amplify white nationalist conspiracy theories instead of a comprehensive solution to protect our borders and strengthen our immigration system.
“While vigorous disagreement is part of the legislative process. Members are reminded that we must adhere to established standards of decorum and debate,” he said.
“It’s a violation of House rules and the rules of this committee to engage in personalities regarding other members or to question the motives of a colleague. So remarks of the type that we just saw in the tweet are not permitted by the rules and are not in keeping with the best traditions of our committee,” he said.
Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., then weighed in with his opposition to the tweet in question.
“My colleagues on the other side of the aisle who want to state that we’re using this hearing for white nationalism,” he said. “I’m not doing that.”
He continued: “So if you feel that strongly come to this side of the room and let’s talk about it face to face, only that kind of silly stuff for somebody else. Don’t bring that here today. This stuff is serious.”

Let’s hope so. But even if it is released, the media and justice department will keep people from seeing or knowing about it.
That is exciting news CottonBall. I loved hearing about the kittens and their progress. Good diversion from politics.
It hasn’t happened yet to miss.
ROFL, I think we would all agree the blanket version would be much better.
So, don’t eat the butter?
Yes, I heard that. It seems hard to get the BP to give truthful information, probably afraid of getting into trouble with Mayorkas.
Awe, wonderful memory.

I was on phone so just heard part of her time. Thanks for posting.
They’re selling audio of his show too.
Seems to me BP agents are being very cautious in their answers.
Agent Chavez just admitted that releases have been relaxed the last 2 years.
The #BidenBorderCrisis is “overwhelming.”
For ten months in a row, there have been over 200,000 illegal border crossings.
That’s never happened under any other administration.

Border Patrol agents apprehended 98 suspected terrorists in the last year alone.
This is a substantial increase from previous years.

WALLS WORK
Border walls manage the flow of migrant crossings and help Border Patrol agents arrest illegal border crossers.
Gaps in the border wall stretch Border Patrol agents thin.

I assure you walls work.
That’s why Democrats built one around the Capitol for Joe Biden’s State of the Union tonight. pic.twitter.com/KkY3djsk42— Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 (@RepMTG) February 7, 2023
The democrats act like a bunch of elementary school kids. That’s a polite version of what I really think.
