The Morning Report 2/28/24

Good morning, kids. There are people who get it, and then there are people who get it. One of them happens to be the Lt. Gov of Virginia, Winsome Sears:

State Sen. “Danica” Roem, a man who identifies as a woman, stormed out of the chamber after making a parliamentary inquiry to Earle-Sears.

“Madame President, how many votes would it take to pass this bill with the emergency clause?” he asked Earle-Sears, who was presiding over the chamber.

“That would be four-fifths, senator,” Earle-Sears replied.

“And what would be the exact number for that, Madam President?”

“Yes, sir, that would be 32,” she replied.

A triggered Roem quickly relinquished his microphone and stormed out, and the chamber was forced to go into recess twice.

Earle-Sears refused to apologize but later addressed the issue when the Senate reconvened, acknowledging that she “said something that upset Sen. Roem.”

“Let it be known: I am not here to upset anyone,” Earle-Sears began. “I am here to do the job that the people of Virginia have called me to do, and that is to treat everyone with respect and dignity. I myself have, at times, not been afforded that same respect and dignity. But in this body, and as long as I am president of the Senate, and by the grace of God, I will be treated with respect and dignity. And I will treat everyone else with respect and dignity. . . ”

. . . Earle-Sears never specifically apologized to Roem, nor should she. Roem is a man, and calling him “Sir” was accurate. I don’t care what he identifies as or what his “personal truth” is. I care about reality, and Roem can’t force anyone to pretend he’s a woman no more than he can force anyone to pretend he’s a cat, an elf, or any sort of mythological creature. He is a human male.  Naturally, local Democrat groups were outraged.

I imagine some of you are not necessarily impressed with Sears’ non-apology apology, preferring that she, for lack of a better expression, just called a spade a spade. That is, double down on calling a man “sir.” In any case, Sears gets my respect for doing what she did in the first place. 

Considering everything that’s going on, is this perhaps focusing on something trivial? Not in my estimation. Andrew Breitbart of blessed memory stated correctly that politics is downstream from the culture. And even a cursory look around shows that we’ve lost the culture, big time. When these days we don’t even flinch at the notion and sad fact of life that men in drag are allowed into girls locker rooms, and allowed to openly serve in our military, I’d say that that is a pretty solid indicator that we’re circling the drain, with the Ty-D-Bowl man Drag Queen waving bye bye.

I bring this up because people like Winsome Sears are going to be our salvation, politically and culturally. Leaving aside the bastardization of the notion of America by the Left that “we’re a nation of immigrants,” I would say it takes an immigrant – a real, honest LEGAL immigrant who got here the old fashioned way by earning citizenship – to understand and appreciate this nation, its history, heritage and culture. These are the people who came here for a better life not to be given it to them on a silver platter via the welfare state but for the opportunity to work for it and build it. And in so doing, building a better more prosperous union.

And for Democrats and Leftists, that statement is the equivalent of showing the cross to Dracula. It’s the last thing they want because independent, self-sufficient, law-abiding citizens who don’t need government is not how Democrats and Leftists gain and maintain power. 

The bitter irony of Winsome Sears being a naturalized citizen and not native born is that it disqualifies her from serving as VP under Trump or any pro-American, America first, non-globalist/statist candidate. It’s too bad that attitude and patriotism are trumped (heh) by this technicality, because there are far too many natives who pale in comparison.

Take for instance this glittering jewel of dumb-fuckery:

House Budget Committee chairman Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-Texas) has said that raising taxes will be necessary to balance the federal budget. His comments will likely irritate President Trump and his team, given the pledge to make the Trump-era tax cuts a permanent fixture in a second Trump administration.

“It’s only fair to have both revenue and expenditures on the table,” Arrington told Semafor. “The last time there was a fix to Social Security that addressed the solvency for 75 years, it was Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neill, and it was bipartisan. It had revenue measures and it had program reforms. That’s just the reality,” said Arrington, who led the charge to create a bipartisan fiscal commission to address government debt.

In January, 19 GOP members of the Budget Committee and three Democrats voted for a proposal to establish the commission, which Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La) supported. Both sides of the political aisle are already attacking the commission. Following the Budget Committee’s vote to establish the commission, 

Democratic Rep. Lloyd Doggett (Texas) said: “There is a real concern out there that this commission will be called the ‘Cut Social Security Commission.’” A group of conservative organizations released a letter attacking the commission as a “trap designed to get Republican fingerprints on a tax increase in exchange for ‘spending cuts’ that never materialize.”

When in God’s name are we actually going to take, not merely an axe, but a thermonuclear warhead to the size and scope of the Federal government?! If you answered “never,” you win a cookie. Social Security should’ve been strangled in its infancy, but here it is and heaven forfend we throw granny off of the cliff in her wheelchair! Remember, the welfare state was originally created not for illegal aliens but for the citizenry by yet another junta led by FDR (with the initial aid from Hoover) who just couldn’t let a crisis go to waste when it came to expanding the power of the state at the expense of individual prudence, ethics and ultimately liberty. 

Just like Winsome Sears called out a mentally deranged drag queen “sir,” what we need is a GOP that calls out taxation, spending and an ever-expanding governmental bureaucracy “cancer.” We won’t get that, of course because the GOP is the Grifting Oleaginous Parasite party.

Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, the rate at which Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants’ brain melts seems to be in direct proportion to the graft that is finding its way into his bank account:

. . . [So-called quote-unquote “president”] Joe Biden doesn’t want to confront China about their involvement in the fentanyl trade due to ties between major players in the fentanyl trade and people who have sent money to the Biden family.

[Blood Money author Peter] Schweizer said, “White Wolf is this very powerful figure. He is pro-CCP. He works with the Chinese government, but he’s the head of UBG, this gang. And this gang is widely recognized as the organization that made the Sinaloa Cartel the kings of fentanyl. They told them how to make it. They helped them get pill presses. They helped provide communication devices. So, the Chinese helped the Mexican cartels so they could communicate securely without the Americans knowing. And they also helped them launder their money. He was partners with this individual, the head of CEFC, who sent $5 million to the Bidens. So, the question, Jesse, is, does Joe Biden really want to have a conversation about Chinese involvement with fentanyl? I think we all know the answer is no based on this evidence.”

The Chi-Coms own Joey lock, stock and barrel. Just like the Ukrainians, Romanians, Russians, credit card companies, racketeers, mobsters and every other bad actor and crook, foreign and domestic, who for the past half century have bought access to his office, either directly or via family members like his brother and son.

And speaking of bribery and straight-up tyranny:

The Supreme Court told [spurious] President Joe Biden that he didn’t have the authority to forgive student loan debt. But he did anyway, bragging that the Court “didn’t stop me.” So why do we even have a legislative branch and a high court if the president is going to make law as if he were a king? . . 

. . . If the president can capriciously set policy, not waiting for Congress to act and ignoring Supreme Court rulings, then the executive branch is no longer one of the separate but equal branches of government. It becomes a separate but predominant branch. . . 

. . . If any Republican president had so egregiously and brazenly ignored a Supreme Court ruling, in essence telling the Court it is inferior to the presidency, the Democrats and the media would be constantly shrieking about the dangerous emergence of a “constitutional crisis.” They’ve done it before. In 2018, John Kerry, a Democrat who’s been in Washington almost as long, it seems, as the Washington Monument, claimed that the “off the rails” Trump White House constituted “a genuine constitutional crisis.” It was a typical tale from a Democrat, full of sound and fury, signifying deception.

But what Biden has done is more serious. Keith E. Whittington, a Princeton University professor of politics, identifies three types of constitutional crises: a crisis of operation, a crisis of fidelity and a crisis of bad faith. Biden’s constitutional offense could be placed in either of the last two categories. He is “no longer willing to abide by existing constitutional arrangements” and is clearly a political actor who has refrained “from repudiating the inherited constitutional system but nonetheless” subverted “it by only giving lip service to constitutional requirements.”

Remember (as if you need a reminder) that the rule of law goes only one way: against the citizenry and anyone who is non-Leftist. Should Donald Trump actually win this coming November, every legal executive order he will sign will be met with rank insubordination and outright mutiny in every agency from the top all the way down to the lowliest toilet attendant, if not met with violent protest from Robert Creamer’s Central Committee Casting Rent-a-Mob. That’s if an organized “Seven Days in May” coup doesn’t actually materialize long before that. And the GOPe? They’ll be first in line to rip him for unilateral action that defies the spirit of “bipartisanship.” 

As for Biden, he will in all likelihood never face the terrible swift sword of justice in this life for his acts graft and borderline treason in selling out this country to the highest bidder. For sure, the Lord in Heaven is doing a rapid finger tattoo on His desk in anticipation of his arrival for final judgement.
