It doesn't even matter who it is at this point, because they're ALL the same. Hence the name. The latest are Mike McRomBush and Chris McRomBush, who will join Nikki McRomBush, Asa McRomBush and Tim McRomBush. And maybe Will McRomBush soon. And perhaps ANOTHER Chris McRomBush (which could be confusing) DeSantis isn't a McRomBush but he's surrounded himself with them.

Governor Ron DeSantis’s “Never Back Down PAC” spokesman Steve Cortes has split with the newly minted presidential candidate over the McCarthy-Biden debt deal looming over Congress.DeSantis tweeted on Sunday: “Our country is careening toward bankruptcy, and after this debt ceiling ‘deal’ it will still be careening toward bankruptcy. The deal green lights $4 trillion in new debt over the next year and a half, locks in inflated levels of spending from COVID, and keeps 98% of the Biden IRS expansion.”His view is widely shared, including by this website. But his “National Spokesman” Steve Cortes disagrees, in a strange moment of...

“Debt Ceiling Tests Speaker McCarthy as He Rides Breezily Through High-Wire Act of His Career” WASHINGTON (AP) — One morning during the debt ceiling crisis, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy climbed onto his mountain bike and took a ride along the National Mall, marveling at the monuments. The next day he arrived for negotiations at the Capitol carting in tortilla chips and queso for the beleaguered reporters waiting outside his office during the 24/7 talks. Throughout the weeks of grueling negotiations McCarthy has remained relentlessly optimistic, breezing through the anxiety-filled hours, seemingly certain of the outcome. Underestimated from the start, he...

I strongly support Ron DeSantis in the race to become the Republican nominee. I am not unpersuadable. Certainly not NeverTrump. If it is Trump v. Democrat, I am Trump. Easy call, that. But I am, in fact, a fan of Ron DeSantis. You already know that, but I want to lay my cards on the table as the primary battle heats up. DeSantis has been an outstanding governor of Florida, and his electoral victory and the huge level of support in Florida (nearly 60% approval) demonstrate that Floridians as a group agree with that sentiment. DeSantis turned Florida deep Red...

The twitter launch of desantis' political run for president is currently a disaster. Thousands wait on the twitter, plagued with streaming and connection errors, as twitter engineers attempt to fix problems, and actually start any kind of presentation. It's 25 minutes past the time the event was to begin, and they still have not actually begun.

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie famously endorsed Donald Trump for the presidency after dropping out of the 2016 Republican primary. But this time? Not a chance, he says. “I can’t help him. No way,” Mr. Christie told Axios. “Look, I just can’t. When you have the Jan. 6 choir at a rally and you show video of it — I just don’t think that person is appropriate for the presidency.” Mr. Christie was referring to Mr. Trump’s decision to start a weekend rally in Waco, Texas, with a song recorded by jailed persons accused of assaulting the U.S. Capitol...

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said in the aftermath of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack that removing former President Trump through the 25th Amendment “takes too long,” according to the latest leaked recording of a call with top House GOP colleagues. McCarthy, who is aiming to be Speaker if Republicans win the House majority in November, also said that what Trump did was “atrocious and totally wrong” but expressed opposition to impeachment on the call.

What’s up guys I am here to talk about 3 little RINOS and there shenanigans while they stab conservatives and there country in the back with this vote. Guys this is just proof of why you have to vet the ppl you vote for but I’m also here to correct another take that was made yesterday from Ana Navarro who once again found a way to lie. https://www.deseret.com/utah/2022/4/4... https://apnews.com/article/ketanji-br... https://www.sltrib.com/news/2022/04/0... https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCKkW8k... here is the channel I got the video from which focuses more on the Justice herself and my video focuses more on the lying pos Romney. I’ll leave the...

But Democrats should be careful what they wish for, as McCarthy’s potential demise isn’t necessarily a good thing when considering the alternative. Yes, his behavior is despicable and cowardly. But here’s the thing: In the rare moment of candor in which a leaked recording has permitted the world to listen in, McCarthy at least seemed to have the ability to recognize when something is way off. At least he exhibited some modicum of human sensibility, enabling him to recognize gross injustice and culpability, if only to quickly sweep it under the rug for political expediency. snip But it could be...

Fox News host and Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson ripped into House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday over recently released audio recordings of the California Republican criticizing then-President Donald Trump and fellow GOP representatives in the wake of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. McCarthy promised members of his leadership team, including House Minority Whip Steve Scalise and then-Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney, that he would encourage Trump to resign in a Jan. 10 phone call. After the top House Republican denied having the conversation, two New York Times reporters released an audio recording of the conversation. The two reporters released...

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy escaped the wrath of former President Donald Trump after the California Republican was caught on tape stating he planned to ask Trump to resign following the Jan. 6 riots — but that doesn't mean the saga is over for him yet. On Monday, McCarthy visited the southern border with other Republican lawmakers, and did a brief interview with Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin. Melugin asked McCarthy about the leaked tape, as well as the lawmaker's assertion that reporting done by New York Times political correspondents was "totally false." "I never told the president to...

President Trump remains one of the most popular figures in the Republican Party. A vast majority want him to run again in 2024, and he has blown out other potential primary opponents in almost every poll. The Republican establishment realizes that they cannot defeat Trump at the ballot box, so they have taken after Democrats by using underhanded tactics to defeat America First candidates.RINOs in Tennessee passed a law that would prevent candidates who haven’t voted in the last three general elections from running, a bill that was primarily targeted at America First candidates.Now, they have removed three Trump-supporting Congressional...

Former Trump admin aide Alyssa Farah Griffin predicted on Sunday the GOP would use the ex-president to help win the midterms before dropping him for the 2024 presidential elections. Griffin, who served in various White House rolls including the director of strategic communications during former President Donald Trump's time in office, said she believes Republicans will keep him around for fundraising during the midterms. "Republicans are going to keep him around through 2022 because he will be helpful in winning back House seats, getting back the House majority," she said on CNN's State of the Union. "He is monster fundraiser....

One of the most puzzling conundrums about “progressive” prosecutors — who favor de-prosecution and de-carceration — is to ascertain their motivations. What are these elected chief prosecutors thinking when they unilaterally decide not to enforce the law? And why, even as murders increase in the big cities they police, do they continue to support these policies without shame? Let’s consider the options:

The editorial board members’ abject panic about COVID sees them imagining using guns against their fellow citizens to protect themselves from a virus. I lived most of my life in leftist cities with leftist newspapers. Having lived in the more conservative Southeast lately, I’ve been rather surprised to find that the urban papers are just as leftist, perhaps even more leftist. That may help explain why the Salt Lake City Tribune, which operates in a state that voted overwhelmingly for Trump, announced that the state’s National Guard should imprison people without vaccinations in their own homes. Salt Lake City is...

An alarming amount of Democrats, as Scott highlighted, support strict government action against the unvaccinated, according to a recent poll from the Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports. That desire for such force against unvaccinated citizens has been extended to the mainstream media with a January 15 editorial from The Salt Lake Tribune calling on Gov. Spencer Cox (R) to activate the National Guard to prevent unvaccinated Utahans from participating in society.That's actually what it says:Were Utah a truly civilized place, the governor’s next move would be to find a way to mandate the kind of mass vaccination campaign we should...

Eugene Kontorovich is a professor at George Mason. In Utah, Non-white or Hispanic ethnicity are assessed a higher Covid risk score and are therefore prioritized for monoclonal antibodies. The chart can be found on Page 6 of Utah’s Monoclonal Antibody Allocation Guidelines…

The GOP has a duty to condemn the riot and those who refuse to acknowledge it. We’re in an acrimonious period of partisan tribalism and have been for some time. Both parties are guilty of overwrought denunciations of their political opponents. My criticisms are often aimed at Democrats; on the anniversary of Jan. 6, I’m addressing squarely those Republicans who for a year have excused the actions of the rioters who stormed the Capitol, disrupted Congress as it received the Electoral College’s results, and violently attempted to overturn the election. These apologists say those who stormed the Capitol were innocent...

Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel on Thursday said she still considers Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) to be a member of the party after the Wyoming GOP voted to no longer recognize the Republican congresswoman. "Obviously she's still a Republican," McDaniel said at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast in Washington.
