Rotation in office is a key to Liberty.

I welcome frequent and large elective turnover.

The media, on the other hand, wrings its hands over the loss of these oligarchs.

What we really need is similar turnover among the deep state permanent bureaucracy.

Stability in office is crucial for the viability of the Deep State, which depends on trading favors.

When you give a favor to somebody, you need confidence that when the time comes to return the favor, that he (or his hand-picked successor) will be in a position to do so. If that can't be relied upon, then the system falls apart.

This is why it should be a priority to generate "employment churn" in government.

A better headline would be “MAGA getting the Republican house in order ahead of midterms”

If they are not going to fight back against the socialist/communist dem party, they need to find some other line of work.

Join the Two Term Party.

Like any other party we have our liberal, moderate and conservative members.

The liberals believe in only two terms in any office.

The moderates believe in two elected offices for life.

The conservatives believe in one term in office followed by an equal one in prison.

Now, now. Not all of them are oligarchs. Some of them are merely tools of oligarchs.

Not nearly enough incumbents are being defeated. Sad, but true.

Ignore the trash talk: Republicans can and will win this November

Washington Examiner ^ | 9/1/2022 | Herschel Walker
Posted on 9/1/2022, 8:55:42 AM by whyilovetexas111

Trash talk is common in sports. Whether it’s lighthearted or nasty, the purpose is the same: to intimidate your opponent and make them lose focus and feel less confident in their ability to win.

Democrats and their friends in the media are engaging in their own form of trash talk when it comes to the midterm elections. They wave around some meaningless poll or quote an “expert” who would have us believe that Republican Senate candidates are weak, President Joe Biden has had some great successes, the Democrats’ fundraising numbers give them a huge advantage, and Republicans can’t possibly win back the Senate.

Rick Scott Savages Mitch McConnell For Trying To Sabotage GOP Senate Races
thefederalist.com ^ | 9/1/22 | Jordan Boyd
Posted on 9/1/2022, 11:50:08 AM by cotton1706

National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman Rick Scott wants DC Swamp creatures like Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to know that his attempts to squash a GOP victory in the Senate this fall by throwing Republican candidates under the bus are “an amazing act of cowardice” and “treasonous to the conservative cause.”

In a short but fiery opinion editorial published on Thursday, Scott lambasted the “many of the very people responsible for losing the Senate last cycle” who are “now trying to stop us from winning the majority this time by trash-talking our Republican candidates” as “fools.”

“Giving anonymous quotes to help the Washington Post or the New York Times write stories trashing Republicans is the same as working with the Democratic National Committee,” Scott wrote. “If you want to talk about the need to raise more money to promote our candidates versus the Democrats’ terrible candidates, I agree. If you want to trash-talk our candidates to help the Democrats, pipe down. That’s not what leaders do. And Republicans need to be leaders that build up the team and do everything they can to get the entire team over the finish line.”

He never mentions McConnell’s name, but it’s clear from his writing that Scott is unhappy with the leader’s recent negativity towards his own party.

Scott’s rebuke comes just a couple of weeks after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell downplayed Republicans’ chances at winning back the upper chamber.

“I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips than the Senate,” McConnell said. “Senate races are just different, they’re statewide. Candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome.”
