Marjorie Taylor Green is a very stable genius: Sitting in here earlier, I was listening to the discussion on jobs and that the whole reason claimed by my colleagues on the other side of the aisle is that they want to bring in as many illegal aliens as possible, give them amnesty so they can fill jobs in America,” Greene claimed. “And then they talked about that we have a population growth problem in the United States.” “Well, I think we can all say that if maybe, perhaps, 63 million people weren’t murdered in the womb, we wouldn’t have a population growth problem, would we?” she asked. “That’s not women’s reproductive rights. That’s called abortion. It’s called murder.” Greene blamed abortion rights for slowing population growth. Never say there is no plan: By the way, they are lowering the working age in red states. They’re getting prepared.
Keep this in mind when you hear that Trump has changed his spots and “won’t have time for retribution.” It’s what he lives for: Former President Donald Trump and people in his inner circle have told down-ballot Republican candidates not to hire Republican strategist Jeff Roe or his political consulting firm after Roe worked to elect Ron DeSantis, according to four people familiar with the conversations. The admonition against hiring Roe represents an attempt to choke off revenue for his consulting firm, Axiom, in an act of political retribution. Roe was a top strategist for the DeSantis super PAC, Never Back Down. Roe resigned in mid-December after the Washington Post published a story detailing backbiting at the super PAC. Candidates have been warned that hiring Roe could create a political problem for them with the Trump team. “It’s an open secret that candidates who want to stay on President Trump’s good side should not hire Axiom,” said one of the four people, an influential Republican strategist who was granted anonymity to speak candidly. “They are enemy No. 1.” He wants to be a dictator.
And he may reward her with the big enchilada Is it possible Trump will actually choose Stefanik? I still doubt it. She’s not out of central casting after all, at least not in the way Trump thinks is important. But apparently he’s talked about it” During a candlelit dinner with Mar-a-Lago members in late December, former President Donald Trump walked around the table as the conversation turned to one of the biggest decisions he’d have to make should he become the Republican nominee: Whom should he pick to be his running mate? That’s when Rep. Elise Stefanik, the hard-charging upstate New York Republican, came up, according to a person at the dinner table. Attendees around Trump raved about her viral moment just weeks before, when she grilled three university presidents at a congressional hearing about antisemitism on campus. At the thought of Stefanik as a possible choice for vice president, Trump nodded approvingly.

We must allow presidents to be dictators Funny how this never came up until we elected this corrupt monster.
President Joe Biden on Wednesday dispatched his chief of staff to call the former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and apologize for a dig the Democratic National Committee took at him a day prior, just after he had dropped his campaign for president. Hutchinson had been one of Donald Trump’s biggest critics from the right in his failed campaign, which he ended less than 24 hours after he finished a distant sixth in the Iowa caucuses. The DNC looked to make light of Hutchinson’s performance in a statement sent to reporters shortly after his exit Tuesday, writing, “This news comes as a shock to those of us who could’ve sworn he had already dropped out.” Karine Jean-Pierre, Biden’s press secretary, revealed during a Wednesday press briefing that Jeff Zients made the phone call after she was asked about the DNC’s statement. Jean-Pierre said Biden has a “deep respect” for the former governor and “admires the race he ran.” “The president knows him to be a man of principle who cares about our country and has a strong record of public service,” Jean-Pierre said.

We take this one very seriously. The press is maligning us with claims that our employees are working eighteen-hour days for as little as $550 a month. You know what the press ISN’T telling you? Those same employees are treated to Jeans Fridays. EVERY FRIDAY. Never hear about that, do you? Now, are they technically required to sew the jeans first? Yes. But our motto is “Work hard, play hard!” But mostly, work hard. Let’s be real here: five-dollar rompers don’t sew themselves.
