Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) gave Democrats a boost recently. Whether it was intentional or not is irrelevant at this point—when the Senate Republican leader says that his party virtually has no chance of retaking the 50-50 Senate, people take notice.
As the Biden White House continues to stick to its story that the president had no clue Attorney General Merrick Garland signed off on the controversial FBI raid of Donald Trump's Florida home, Rasmussen Reports says its new polling indicates that the lack of transparency on the part of the Biden Administration will hurt Democrat's chances in November – and cause continued distrust toward the Democrat Party down-ballot.

Look, no one is going to just hand us our nation back. These pukes are not going to purge themselves. The enemy's not going to shrug and go back to their faculty lounges and Trader Joe's white wine sections and leave the country to us normal people. We have to fight for it – every day and in every way, forever.
"As one of the world's largest battery manufacturers, East Penn Manufacturing's expansion in Temple is great news for Texas' skilled workforce. And as the global demand for batteries continues to grow, this new facility will further stimulate Texas' booming economy and usher in greater opportunities for the people of Central Texas,'" said Gov. Greg Abbott, celebrating the grand opening and ribbon cutting of the company's new Finishing & Distribution Center.
“Housing & Urban Development resources, along with private funds, will not only ensure that our community meets its affordable housing demands, but does so in a way that's beneficial to residents, taxpayers and community stakeholders. This is a win-win for TX-34,” said new (and very active) Congresswoman Mayra Flores, announcing a new $16.5 million dollar, 50 unit housing project for the south Texas border city of Weslaco, Texas.

Rarely does the average American think of the Internal Revenue Service as a “service” – especially when the Internal Revenue "Service" recently advertised some of its new hiring and job placement opportunities. One of the “Major Duties” caught the eye of many commentators: “Carry a firearm, and be willing to use deadly force, if necessary,” it read. Presumably because of the uproar, the IRS deleted that line.
As President Biden's polls continue to stagnate and the Mid-Term Election approaches, we're once again being serially treated to another Democrat Melodrama about an impending right-wing violent takeover. This year, and this time, the alleged threat is a desire for a "Civil War." But in fact, over the last five years its "The Left" who has openly talked of tearing America apart – disobeying immigration law, packing the Supreme Court, and more.
The Biden White House has a lot of nerve doubling the IRS Budget and adding 87,000 IRS employees in a so-called "Inflation Reduction Act" that won't reduce inflation. What's worst about this vault of money for 150,000 IRS Agents is that Democrats have voted down more money for police to stop rampant crime and they've voted down more Border Patrol Agents to keep drugs and criminals out of America. These are the most warped funding priorities I've seen in 30 years.
“From supporting military readiness, to leading the charge in human space exploration, Texas has played a dynamic role in Civil, Commercial & Defense Collaboration in the Aerospace Industry,” said Cong. Brian Babin after leading the entire Texas Congressional Delegation in a letter to U.S. Air Force Sect.

The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision earlier this summer in the momentous West Virginia v. EPA case marked the second time the Court has rebuked the EPA for its "novel interpretations of the Clean Air Act" to regulate "a significant portion of the American economy." But it's not being heeded by EPA when it comes to its potential adoption of “imprudent and legally flawed” National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS).
"Dedicating almost a decade to public service that's yielding results for Texans, Caroline has deep roots in her community and is in tune with the needs of House District 52 – which will make her an effective member of the Texas House,” said Speaker Dade Phelan, as he and the Texans for Lawsuit Reform PAC announced their matching financial support for Republican Caroline Harris in the north-Austin based district.
No foreign power would ever hope to undermine the pillars of our United States as successfully as its being done today. From the Steele Dossier, Russia "collusion," the labeling of Trump as a Russian "asset," the Mueller Report, and the Biden White House's refusal to enforce our immigration laws, when it comes to equal application of the law and due process, this Justice Department and administration has done just the opposite.
