Trump's Present To Southern California: More Water


As promised, President Trump issued an executive order that would provide Southern California more water.

According to Western Journal:

Among President Donald Trump’s first executive orders issued on Monday was one directing that a plan be implemented to deliver more water from northern California to the central and southern parts of the state.

He argued lack of water was a reason the California wildfires did such damage.

Trump recounted in his Jan. 20 order — titled “Putting People over Fish: Stopping Radical Environmentalism to Provide Water to Southern California” and directed to the Secretaries of Commerce and the Interior Departments — “During my first term, the State of California, at the direction of its Governor [Gavin Newsom], filed a lawsuit to stop my Administration from implementing improvements to California’s water infrastructure. My Administration’s plan would have allowed enormous amounts of water to flow from the snow melt and rainwater in rivers in Northern California to beneficial use in the Central Valley and Southern California.”

It has been reported that Trump will pay a visit to the fire stricken areas on Friday.

Black Hawk Helicopter Appears and Damages Supplies With Rotor Wash

 


From the Western Journal:

Video from a North Carolina disaster relief station appears to show a Black Hawk helicopter damaging the site with its rotor wash.

According to one report, the incident came only 40 minutes after the civilian aid site was allegedly “slow rolled” by a pair of suspicious black SUVs.

The situation unfolded Sunday as people gathered supplies to help Hurricane Helene victims at a Burnsville parking lot.

A video of the encounter showed the helicopter arriving over the parking lot where volunteers and aid were being staged.

Eric Swalwell's Meltdown Over Photo

This is funny.

Rep. Eric Swalwell had a bit of a meltdown during a congressional hearing over a AI photo of former President Donald Trump with a duck and a cat.

According to the Western Journal:

Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell of California appeared to lose it at a Congressional hearing Tuesday over a comical image of former President Donald Trump protecting a cat and a duck.

The GOP House Judiciary Committee shared the computer-generated image on social media platform X with the caption, “Protect our ducks and kittens in Ohio.”

The picture is in reference to an unsubstantiated account from a Springfield, Ohio, resident given at a recent city commission meeting that Haitian migrants are killing and eating ducks from public parks.

Here's the photo:

 


Swalwell is known for his affair with Chinese spy Fang Fang.

House GOP Wastes No Time To Hold Ousted Twitter Execs Accountable

Above, Hunter Biden from his laptop.

Three Twitter former executives will be held accountable for suppressing and censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story during the later part of the 2020 election by a House oversight committee.

The Western Journal reported:

The earliest days of the Republican-controlled House are already showing results.

The three former Twitter executives responsible for censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story — a story that could well have turned the 2020 election — have gotten a formal invitation from the chairman of the House Oversight Committee to explain their decision to the American people.

The answers are going to shape the rest of the Joe Biden presidency — and the nation’s view of the FBI.

In letters released Wednesday, Kentucky Rep. James Comer wrote Vijaya Gadde, Twitter’s former head of legal policy; Yoel Roth, the social media giant’s former head of “trust and safety”; and James Baker, Twitter’s former general counsel, notifying them that their attendance is required on Capitol Hill “the week of Feb. 6.”

They have until Jan. 18 to reply. As National Review noted, if they don’t wish to appear voluntarily, the committee can take steps to compel it.

All three have left the company since mega-billionaire Elon Musk purchased it. Gadde and Baker were fired.

Roth resigned, explaining in an interview with journalist Kara Swisher that he’d concluded that Twitter under Musk’s leadership would be a never ending series of disasters.

Quick! Hide Your Refrigerator, Biden's After It!


Everyday, it seems there's not much remaining in our lives that His Fraudulency Joe Biden and his minions won't target for elimination.

Now it is the family refrigerator!

From The Western Journal:

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed new rules on Friday that would restrict the use of refrigerators, air conditioning equipment and heat pumps that utilize hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs).

The EPA’s proposed rule would crack down on the manufacturing and importing of goods containing HFCs, which would restrict the use of HFCs in refrigeration units, air conditioning systems and heat pump equipment starting in 2025, according to an agency press release. In accordance with the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, a global climate treaty that the Senate ratified in September, the agency intends to reduce the production and consumption of HFCs by 85 percent by 2036.

“With this latest proposal under the bipartisan AIM Act, EPA continues to advance President Biden’s ambitious climate agenda while investing in American innovation and ingenuity,” EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan said in a statement.

Rush Limbaugh's Widow Confirms Death Certificate Rumor

Above, Rush Limbaugh receiving the Medal of Freedom in January 2020. White House photo.

The late talk show host Rush Limbaugh gave the media one last tweak after his passing on February 17, 2021.

It was something that apparently was rumored (I hadn't heard of it) for a while. His widow, Kathryn, confirmed it with Glenn Beck.

According to the Western Journal:

Rush Limbaugh, the late king of talk radio, had one final tweak for the left-wing media that hated him so much, and it’s something he just knew his fans would love.

Kathryn Adams Limbaugh, the widow of the conservative talk radio legend, recently joined Glenn Beck’s radio show and confirmed the rumor that Rush wanted his death certificate to deliver one last jab at the media.

Beck asked Kathryn if the rumors about Rush’s death certificate were true. Did Rush’s final official document say that his occupation was “greatest radio host of all time”?

Kathryn laughed as she replied, “Yes. We have to be on brand at all times. … Another thing that we wanted to do and a way to tweak the media as a final goodbye from Rush, which we know he certainly would have loved."

TMZ posted a copy of Limbaugh's death certificate:

Cassidy Hutchinson Texts Leak - Make Her Look Like Fraud

Above, Cassidy Hutchinson at the White House.


Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony before the January 6 congressional kangaroo court is falling apart.

Before she testified before the committee, she was singing a different tune and even sought legal help through CPAC.

The Western Journal reported:

It has been revealed that Cassidy Hutchinson, the Democrat’s surprise star witness at its January 6 show trials, was singing a different tune months ago in text messages where she called the left-wing kangaroo court a bunch of “BS.”

Hutchinson, a former aide to President Donald Trump’s White House chief of staff Mark Meadows in 2020, was brought in for what the Democrats and their compliant media operatives called “bombshell” testimony, though most of what she said was quickly debunked as fake news. After it was all said and done, it was more fizzle than bombs, but the left played it as big, big news.

Indeed, after her testimony, the cameras caught a telling moment when embattled Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney was seen throwing her arms around Hutchinson and offering great thanks for her quickly discredited claims.

During her testimony, Hutchinson made several key claims, none of which ring true.

In one case, she claimed that Donald Trump actually assaulted members of the Secret Service and tried to take control of the presidential SUV on Jan. 6 with the intention of driving to the Capitol Building to join the rioting there.

Hutchinson testified that Tony Ornato, former Trump Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations, told this story to her in the days after the riot.

But since then, Ornato says that he was nowhere near Trump and the SUV and that he never heard such a story before — and he certainly never told any such tale to Hutchinson.

O'Rourke Flip-Flops Again On Gun Confiscation

Above, Beto O'Rourke last week in Uvalde, Texas.

Chronic campaigner Beto O'Rourke has flipped-flopped again when it comes to guns. He is currently running for governor of Texas.

He is back on the side of confiscating guns.

The Western Journal reported:

If Beto O’Rourke gets elected, Texans may have to hand over their guns.

O’Rourke, a Democrat challenging Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in the November election, endorsed the forcible confiscation of semiautomatic rifles in a Dallas town hall event on Tuesday.

“I don’t think the people who have them right now in civilian use should be able to keep them,” O’Rourke said.

O’Rourke said the policy “may not be politically popular” or “may be too honest.”

This is the second time O’Rourke has flip-flopped on gun confiscation, famously backing a proposal some identified as the most tyrannical gun control policy ever as a contender for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020.

O'Rourke made an ass of himself earlier last week by interrupting a press conference in Uvalde, Texas led by Gov. Abbott.

Gov. Lujan Grisham Demands Feds Pay For Wildfires


This is interesting.

New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has demanded that the federal government pay for the wildfire damages. Because they caused it.

From The Western Journal:

Ronald Reagan, one of America’s greatest presidents, once made a statement that acknowledged an unfortunate truism: “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the Government, and I’m here to help.”

The residents of New Mexico can relate. When the Biden administration took what should have been beneficial action, they unleashed an unprecedented disaster.

It appears the largest wildfire in New Mexico history was caused by the federal U.S. Forest Service. In response, New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has demanded the federal government pay for 100 percent of the recovery costs.

As reported by the Las Cruces Sun News, the U.S. Forest Service started fires in what were supposed to be two separate controlled burn locations, Calf’s Canyon and Hermit’s Peak. They lost control over the burns, and the fires joined together, forming a “megafire.”

However, in the Biden administration, nothing gets executed properly. Biden can’t even get through a speech without committing embarrassing errors.

This'll be interesting to watch and to see how much clout, if any, the governor has with Joe Biden.

Break out the popcorn, folks!

Biden Kills Israeli Pipeline Project


His Fraudulency has got to go. I said this at the time of the Afghanistan fiasco, but here's another argument for getting Joe Biden out of the White House.

First, he kills the needed Keystone Pipeline (wonder why gas prices are so high?) and other energy projects. Now, he's killing the gas pipeline that undercuts Israel.

The Western Journal reported:

As tensions between Russia, Ukraine, the U.S. and NATO continue, it is affecting the Mediterranean world as well as Europe’s energy sector.

The U.S. is pulling its support for an Israeli underground natural gas pipeline that would run from the eastern Mediterranean to Europe. Many are predicting this will simply cause more problems in the region.

Moreover, this decision from the Biden administration undercuts Israel, one of America’s most steadfast allies.

The Trump administration supported the EastMed Pipeline, but the Biden administration has environmental and economic concerns about the project, Reuters reported.

Folks, there's an idiot in the White House!

POTUS Is the One Behind Skyrocketing Meat Prices

Since my heart episode three and a half years ago, I have drastically cut back on red meats, i.e., beef. I think I've only had one steak last year. 

Maybe it's just as well, from my standpoint anyway, since beef prices have skyrocketed over the past year. His Fraudulency Joe Biden blames this on a "lack of competition" of meat packers.

The Western Journal has an interesting article on how a rancher and economists exposed Biden as the cause.

Some snippets:

Under the first year of Biden’s administration, Americans have been paying much more for steak dinners, fried chicken and other American culinary staples. Why? Because, according to CNBC, meat prices have risen drastically over the past year, with chicken prices up 8.8 percent, pork prices up 14 percent and beef prices up a whopping 20 percent.

In order to combat these rising prices, on Jan. 3 the Biden administration announced an aggressive $1 billion plan to tackle the issue. The plan seems to place the blame for high prices on big business and the failures of free-market capitalism.

A number of economists, experts and even one rancher currently serving in Congress disagree with this assessment, however. In their view, the blame for higher meat prices can be placed squarely on the shoulders of Biden’s government.

Suggesting a lack of competition has caused rising prices is ridiculous, in one economist’s view, considering that the current level of competition has existed for decades.

James Mitchell, the assistant professor in the Department of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness at the University of Arkansas — spoke with CNN Business regarding the issue and Biden’s proposed solution.

Mitchell explained that the real causes for the price hikes are labor shortages, supply chain issues and costly regulations, all of which have become trademarks under the Biden administration.

National Per-mile Motor Vehicle User Fee Snuck Into Infrastructure Bill


The socialist Democrats and a few RINO Republicans in congress are trying to pass a so-called infrastructure bill, purportedly to rebuild aging bridges, roads and other dilapidated structures in the country.

What they aren't telling us is that they are sneaking in a national motor vehicle mileage "user fee" on passenger cars, light trucks, and medium- and heavy-duty trucks on a "trial basis". When it comes to government, there's no such thing as "trial basis"). As Ronald Reagan once said, "The closest thing to eternal life is a government bureau."

Here's some snippets from an article posted by the Western Journal:

The cost of living is on the rise, calls for yet another wave of pandemic restrictions have begun and now, buried deep in the so-called bipartisan infrastructure bill, the left has laid out yet another idea to bring Americans to their knees.

Make no mistake: The suffering is intentional, goal-oriented and not bound to stop anytime soon.

Still, one proposal in the 2,702 page infrastructure bill seems especially cruel — cruel enough to make it too expensive for many Americans to even drive a car.

Nick Short of the Claremont Institute highlighted an item on Pages 508-519 of the bill that would introduce a national per-mile motor vehicle user fee on a trial basis.

“Buried on page 508 of the 2,702 page infrastructure bill is a pilot program for a national motor vehicle per-mile user fee (MBUF) which is basically a long-term plan to make it too expensive to drive a car,” Short said Tuesday on Twitter.

The left can chalk up this test run of what eventually might turn into a full-blown measure to make owning a vehicle next-to-impossible as an effort to be “environmentally conscious,” but is it instead another way to cripple our existing ways of life?

Democrats' Confiscation Threats Backfire as Gun Sales Skyrocket

Do you know who are the best salespersons for firearms?

If you guess the Democrat Party, you're right!

Since Democrat presidential hopefuls have been talking about gun control and gun confiscation (through "red flag laws" and other proprosals), gun sales have shot up (pun intended).

The Western Journal reported:
Democrats’ growing obsession with gun control is backfiring spectacularly as Americans arm themselves in even greater numbers, making any potential mass confiscation an increasingly dangerous prospect. 
According to the Washington Examiner, background checks conducted through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System last month resulted in the highest August number on record. 
Adjusted for gun sales alone, there were 15.2 percent more background checks than in the previous August. 
This increase in gun sales is (at least in part) likely a product of Democratic fear-mongering. Many prominent Democrats have vowed to ban so-called assault rifles and high-capacity magazines, with some states actually pursuing those restrictions to humiliating effect. 
In August alone, candidates fighting for the Democratic Party’s nomination have proposed such bans.
Above, the Beto O'Rourke campaign is selling this t-shirt with his infamous quote from the recent Democrat debate. 

In a way, we can thank the Democrats for helping to increase sales of firearms.
