Democrats are alarmed by the number of residents fleeing blue states, but “instead of trying to fix the policies” that push people away, liberal lawmakers “want to impose those unpopular mandates nationwide,” observes Liz Peek at The Hill.
To “eliminate the competition between states that they are losing,” lefties are “pushing bills that would put the federal government in charge of states’ labor laws, fiscal policies and voting rules” — from stimulus funds that prohibit state-level tax cuts to ballot-box “reforms” intended to enhance blue turnout in red places. These “egregious power-grabs” are “downright authoritarian.”
Democraps Private-Sector Censors Thursday’s congressional tech hearings saw Democrats trying to get around the First Amendment, recruiting Facebook and Twitter to “abridge the freedom of speech,” warn the editors at the Washington Examiner. Democrats made it clear that they “have the power to subsidize, tax, regulate and protect the giants, so they expect these companies to crack down on bad speech” — or in other words, “to censor the other side.”
They label as “misinformation and hate speech” any facts and opinions against the left, including “pro-lifers, conservative commentators and investigative reporters who have unearthed unflattering news about President Joe Biden” and his clan.
Knowing they can’t outright ban pro-life opinion or outstanding journalism stories like The NY Post’s Hunter Files, Democrats seek instead to “limit the public square to a handful of companies and then pressure those companies to do the censoring.”

This is how the civil war actually started...
Yup....this is typical lefty hubris......wanting us to shake in out boots at their conniving ways.
Former Trump White House policy advisor Stephen Miller is preparing to launch a new legal group to fight President Joe Biden’s agenda in the court system, taking a page from the book of the ACLU and other left-wing advocacy groups that coordinated with Democrats to try and block Trump’s platform during his time in office. Miller’s group will be titled America First Legal, distinguishing itself from other conservative legal groups by adopting a name will an expressly populist and nationalist bent.
Miller reportedly is interested in leading the group on the basis of his experience crafting policy in the Trump White House, and structuring presidential orders in a manner that would endure intense scrutiny from left-wing judges in the court system.
America First Legal will seek to coordinate with Republican state Attorney Generals in addition to filing its own lawsuits. Republicans such as Ken Paxton have already seen success in suing the Biden administration, with Paxton effectively overturning Biden’s temporary cessation of all ICE deportations as a violation of federal law.
Federal judiciaries are among the few civic institutions in American life where conservatives still hold a degree of power, and it’s very likely much of Biden’s liberal-globalist program will run into problems within the system, especially if Republican victories in the 2022 midterms force Biden to adopt Barack Obama’s approach of legislating through executive order. Former Clinton impeachment lawyer Ken Starr is expected to take on a senior role at America First Legal, with former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows also slated for the group’s board. 14 Republican Attorney Generals have signed onto a lawsuit challenging Biden’s shutdown of Keystone XL pipeline construction, in what could become the next major court case of Biden’s (Excerpt) Read more at bigleaguepolitics.com ...
I read an article from The NY Times yesterday that implied how the media is going to attack Florida and DeSantis, recently Florida had 300-400,000 Bikers in Daytona for Bike Week and nearly that many in South Florida for Spring Break, the criticism will be people from all over came to Florida to party, got infected and traveled back home spreading Covid all over the country
Mmmmmmm.....that sounds disturbingly like the patented Pelosi “wrap-up smear” she regularly conjures up to manipulate the obeisant media.
All of that messaging about spreading covid is so disingenuous as long the border is wide open by Biden.
True, but since when has that stopped Democrats from attempting to destroy a potential opponent...
Remember DeSantis is up for re-election in 2022, so anything they can do to damage him they will do...
Thx for the link.
Interesting.
.....now before the Supreme Court — Cedar Point Nursery and Fowler Packaging Company v. ALRB — is one of many land mark cases exemplifying the complications of pols (beholden to unions for votes and donations) promulgating unions’ interests over those of workers and growers.......(and struggling Americans).
Am I nuts to wonder if some of SCOUTUS is under house arrest....
...SCOTUS...
USSC under house arrest?......hah....nothing would surprise me in this corrupt age of Biden.
Not all of it. Just the members still loyal to our former republic.
AND THIS Biden’s continued badgering of we, the people, on racism is
pushing Americans too far……...... and is inviting one heck of a backlash.
Biden’s constant refrain is about “how bad we are,” implying he, of course, is “so good”.
Biden dictates that, we, the people, should be “as good as the government”......and Biden will show us how.
The Biden State Dept weighing in on racism-——a domestic issue——shows how far Biden
will go to show all of us “bad people” how really, “really good” the Biden government is.
