That was Conan O’brian in Haiti to do a show ridiculing Trump for badmouthing Haiti. https://revolver.news/2024/03/stunning-washington-post-headlines-prove-once-again-president-trump-was-right-about-haiti/

What does any of that have to do with the price of tea in China?

POSTED ON MARCH 10, 2024 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN CONGRESS, DIVERSITY, ECONOMY, INCLUSION, PROGRESSIVES AND PROGRESSIVISM, RACIAL PREFERENCES DEI DESTROYS CHIPS DEI (racial and other quotas) is intrinsically evil. At The Hill, Matt Cole and Chris Nicholson reveal a shocking, practical downside to DEI hysteria: “DEI killed the CHIPS Act.” The issue is critical because Taiwan now produces 90% of the world’s advanced microchips, and China has indicated its intention to annex Taiwan in the near future. So the CHIPS Act sought to incentivize chip production in the U.S. Unfortunately, that isn’t what is happening. It isn’t only TSMC that is being stymied by DEI: Access to microchips is a national security issue, as well as being fundamental to a modern economy. And yet Congressional majorities care more about DEI shibboleths and feeding pork to their constituencies than about American security and prosperity. Of course, that isn’t really an irony. The whole point of DEI is hating America, and if it imperils our security and our prosperity, so much the better. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/03/dei-destroys-chips.php

What a maroon.

I’m rating the Plott/Keck match highly, too.

Mission accomplished.

Attorney General Bailey Obtains Court Order Blocking Joe Biden from Illegally Diverting Funds Away from Building the Border Wall Home 9 Press Release 9 Attorney General Bailey Obtains Court Order Blocking Joe Biden from Illegally Diverting Funds Away from Building the Border Wall JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Today, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey obtained a court order forcing the Biden Administration to use congressionally appropriated funds to construct a barrier along the southern border. “The Biden Administration has failed to abide by the law to finish the construction of a wall along the southwest border,” said Attorney General Bailey. “Joe Biden refuses to carry out his constitutionally mandated responsibilities, so we took him to court to force him to do his job. This is a huge step forward in the fight to secure our border at a key moment in our nation’s history.” In FY 2020, Congress passed a law explicitly requiring the President to construct barrier systems at the southern border to keep unauthorized individuals out of our country. The law provided $1.4 billion to build the border wall and explicitly stated the money “shall only be available for construction of barrier systems along the southwest border.” The Biden Administration refused to comply with Congress’ command. When asked why the Biden Administration “did not build a barrier, such as a wall, to keep migrants out,” it replied that “[i]t is not the policy of this administration” because “[w]e do not agree with the building of a wall.” DHS expressed its intention to “end wall expansion.” The Administration even “call[ed] on Congress to cancel remaining border wall funding” because they knew that without congressional action, they would need to use the appropriated funds for their specified purpose: finish the construction of President Trump’s border wall. Yet when Congress did not capitulate to its demands, the Biden Administration ignored its constitutional obligations to abide by Congress’ appropriations laws and opted not to use the funding for the purpose Congress directed. Missouri, alongside Texas, immediately filed suit. The Biden Administration attempted to argue General Bailey did not have standing to challenge its refusal to use the funds, but the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that states can indeed bring a challenge. The court’s order compelling the Biden Administration to follow Congress’ command to build the wall can be read here. https://ago.mo.gov/attorney-general-bailey-obtains-court-order-blocking-joe-biden-from-illegally-diverting-funds-away-from-building-the-border-wall/

I think you’ve gone far enough with this fakery. There was no need of a senate border bill, there was a perfectly good house bill sent to the senate last year. Lankford played McConnell’s puppet as they tried to cobble together funding for Ukraine. As details leaked out conservatives voiced their opposition. One of the unconstitutional aspects was a rule that it couldn’t be changed until after 2026. Trump didn’t advise against it because it was a benefit to him, he opposed it because it was a bad law. If the house was to shut down the government to get their bill passed by the Senate, Trump would support them because it is a good law. You are so afflicted with TDS that you think a good economy is when prices have doubled and wages have increased, for some, by nine percent. Your credibility is shot.

All I’ve done is make it available, the rest is up to ewe.

I didn’t think so.

Is this quiz open to married people?

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/03/let-my-people-go-fights-back-against-censorship/ That’s what the film’s creator says. Like others, I had the general concept, but not the data, skill, or venue, to tie it all together and tell it as entertainingly as it’s been done here. The meat and potatoes of the film start at 42:30 and end at about 1:44, so just over an hour, although the rest of it is informative as well.

I’m sure kameluh filed one for him over three years ago.

In full campaign mode now.
