“Jeffries is a Baptist.”

Interesting. So, unless he meant it as praise, or an endorsement; he necessarily must have meant it as a pejorative, or a criticism. And I would be surprised if Jeffries had offered any praise or endorsement of Johnson; but, I’ve been surprised before.

It’s like the issue of Nancy Pelosi being Catholic: She claims the label, for convenience and cover; yet she pretty much opposes recognized Catholic dogma.

As I said: Interesting.

It's too soon to be sure, but they might have actually done us a great big favor. I will let you know when I find out more from my sources (friends there in NW LA.)

Must have been a FReeper mistaking her for an angry, vicious leftist lesbian shrew, which we all know is a poor analogy. Viper is more fitting.

Sometimes you don’t know if you can change things unless you try. Or to borrow a phrase from Gaetz, sometimes you just have to pull the Band-Aid off.

Ratings mean nothing. Watch him like a hawk and hold him accountable from this day forward. Actions matter. Words mean nothing.

I remain cautiously optimistic with hopes this new Speaker will remember the will of the people he was elected to serve.

Thank you for the primary list!!! Hopefully enough people in the GOP will do something about every single one of these Uni Party Rinos.

Do you or does anyone remember the link to the funny cop video some days ago? Who tickets a guy and calls him a retard for having bumper stickers supporting Ukraine and Biden 2024?
