FWIW, I don’t listen to Bannon, Charlie Kirk, Benny Johnson, Laura Loomer, Mark Levin, or Tucker Carlson.

But they claim to represent “conservative” values now that Rush has passed.

Probably because the New Drudge Report, Citizens Free Press has passed along to them a “conservative” megaphone which wants folk to think they represent the best interests of MAGA.

As I’ve posted before I reject the notion that there are two distinct parties in mighty opposition.

There is only one party in America and Trump is not a member although I’m starting to have my doubts as Trump’s new foreign policy team appears to be his Balkan wife, Goober Grahamnesty and Stolen Valor Blumenthal.

Same goes for “conservative” as it has been so misappropriated a label as to be near meaningless.

It has become meaningless since Rush passed, and there is not a uniting force to keep a true conservative standard.

And the folk claiming to be “conservative” are so fickle.

I NEVER trusted MTG and often made comments calling her the Republican AOC and took heat from MTG fanboys for doing so.

Now if that latest house vote is any indication, she appears to be cozying up to Omar and Talib and may be replacing AOC on the squad.

I’ve been listening to Mark Halperin but he is NO conservative nor does he claim to be.

He reports from “sources” which are from Elite Stream Media but serve as useful information nonetheless.

I don’t listen to Megyn Kelly’s podcast but I do pay attention to some of her content that’s been aggregated to other platforms.

She’s often more on point the great bloviator Ted O’Baxter which is the nickname given to Bill O’Reilly by Rush.

Loomer actually reminds me a bit of Tucker as they are both given to hysterical rants.

I miss Rush. It’s been a free for all mess since he passed.

Do you have anymore truths to reveal?

'It has become meaningless since Rush passed, and there is not a uniting force to keep a true conservative standard.'

What a joke. The entire point of Rush was to hinder nationalism and populism. He spent the entire 90's bashing populism. He was the biggest proponent of NAFTA, GATT and the rest of the free trade issues we've suffered from. He kept his mouth shut on illegal immigration until it was too late, and carried the water for the gop time and again. The idea that he was the gold standard of 'conservatism' is absurd.
