Steven Crowder just recommended an interesting purity test for Republicans: Anyone running for election, or reelection, as a Republican must endorse defunding and restructuring our national intelligence and law enforcement agencies. Otherwise, they should not be elected.

This makes a lot of sense to me. The DoJ, FBI, and IRS have been weaponized against the American people....especially those who do not profess fealty to the Progressive Liberal agenda.

Desantis should have immediately sent the Florida state police to Mar-A-Largo and arrested every FBI agent for tresspassing, breaking and entering, harassment, and whatever else they could think of. This should never have been allowed to happen. And to think the same people are hiring 80,000+ armed IRS agents to come after us.

At times of greatest consequence, the legacy of leadership becomes important.​

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis doesn’t use his official office account to release a statement on the FBI raid in Mar-a-Lago, that likely required a joint cooperative task force response from the state, as customary for fulfilment of a federal warrant upon a Florida citizen. Instead, Florida Governor DeSantis issues a tweet from his personal account noting the action was yet “another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies.” Oh well, that’s a relief, heavy sigh, as long as it’s just “another escalation”….
Quick pivot right to the whataboutism politics DC is famous for… “while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves”, and “IRS agents,” etc.

You see, this is what DC does to bang the pots and pans loudly in the UniParty kitchen. As a congressional representative, Ron DeSantis learned the chaff and countermeasures well. Actually challenge the federal government? No way. Not gonna happen.

What are you talking about? The response has been loud and clear from tons in the GOP - even from the top dingdong in the house McCarthy himself.

To my taste the response was mild at best. McCarthy threatening Garland’s job in a tweet was as spicy as I saw, and I don’t rate that very highly.

The response needs to be much louder, longer and carry with it some measurable actions from constituents (insomuch as we can) all the way up to ranking congressional members. Fight fire with fire, and they shot first.

In addition, Barrasso and Scott are the only members among Senate GOP leadership who have so far addressed the FBI raid against Trump. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Minority Whip John Thune, R-S.D., Policy Chair Roy Blunt, R-Mo., and Vice Conference Chair Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, all had not commented as of Tuesday morning. Their offices did not immediately provide comment in response to requests from Fox News Digital.

The silence did not go unnoticed. On Fox News Monday night, MARK LEVIN attacked the Senate leadership for not speaking out.

And that is exactly why Trump needs to be the 2024 candidate, NOT DeSantis. If we even make it to 2024...

I was a Republican from the day I could vote, agreeing with a lot of the party plank even though the R politicians always struck me as not quite committed to their own party platform, let alone the Constitution. Who was I going to vote for, the Demrats? When they ran Songbird McCain I became an Independent.

Decades of conservative people trying to vote RINOs out and good people in has been a total failure. Voting Republican has not conserved anything, the country has lurched so far away from its Founding that it is almost unrecognizable at this point.

The Republicans have gone the way of the Whigs. They have been out of touch with their voters since Eisenhower.

Its time for a new party. The Liberty Party has a nice ring to it, as does the Independence Party. What we need are Constitutional zealots, not milquetoast, spineless curs that sell out to the highest foreign bidder.

No traitors need apply.

PS. For those FBI agents listening in, that's right, I said Constitutional zealots. Fuck off!

Senator Tim Scott on FBI Raid of Trump Home, ‘We Need to Let This Play Out’​

It’s not very often that you get to watch a DeceptiCon evolve in real time. Usually, with history as a guide, DeceptiCon extremists hibernate in the evolutionary process for years, only leaving a minuscule trail from which to find them until they detonate like stealth terror cells. However, Tim Scott has prematurely detonated himself.

Appearing on CBS news to kickstart his 2024 presidential ambitions, and react/respond to the FBI raid on President Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago, Senator Tim Scott advances the DeceptiCon narrative, “we need to let this play out” etc. WATCH, prompted:

Hillary Clinton Promotes ‘But Her Emails’ Cap after Mar-a-Lago Raid

Clinton brazenly touted her 'But Her Emails' merchandise on social media after the FBI raided former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home.
www.breitbart.com www.breitbart.com

Good confirmation of what I stated in post #68 in this thread about Hillary having a good laugh over this whole thing. Tell me she's not sending a message right to Trump with this shot across his bow.

Hilary bought and paid for the DNC by paying off 10s of millions in debts the party was saddled with. She has flexed her political power here and she's broadcasting that she still has tons of political pull, right in Trump's face and the face of his supporters.

Too bad Trump wasn't serious about actually going after her and "locking her up" as he said repeatedly at his rallies. I wonder if he's regretting that campaign slogan today and feeling the burn. When he won the election, one of the first things he said in his victory speech was that he was not going after the Clintons.

Well turn about is fair play, and any honest observer of the shenanigans of the last 12 years (remember she was Secretary of State under the Obamanation) would have to admit that the Dem commies ran the table on Trump, so far at least.

Trump played politics with a lot of things, including Operation WuFlu, riots and burning cities, etc. when he should have been using his executive power to crush the maggots in DC that infest both parties, and when he should have kept firing heads of departments until he got some people in those positions that actually believed in the Constitution. He beat the Demrats on the politics and all of the scandals, so they went with play A, and then plan B, and now here we are, on plan X? Y? Z?

When Trump fired Comey I was hoping that was the point he would take a hard line and clean house.

Drain the swamp! Good one!

100 % I've said before and I'll say again. Trump's biggest failure was not identifying who was actually an ally and who was actually a swamp creature secretly colluding against him and undermining him. If he actually brought in true conservatives patriots and outsiders he could have really made a dent in the swamp. if he purged house of all the bureaucratic lackeys and ran his administration the way the Democrats run theirs he would have gotten a lot more accomplished. So many nameless minions of never trumpers actually obstructed the government of the united states and were never held accountable for their actions.

He should have crushed the Democrats and Clinton's and never extended an olive branch as a sign of good will and an attempt at unifying the country.

This is one of the most important raids in FBI history. It was necessarily signed off at the highest level, and given profound consideration. The FBI/AG believes that a crime was committed, and information at this premises can support a case.

Maybe they find something, maybe they don't.

A wise person would wait for more news before assuming that this is politically motivated skullduggery. One should always be open to the idea that more information will change one's opinion. Seems some here are already certain there will be no information on premises supporting a criminal case. There is not a criminal prosecutor here who has gone through all the data at the premises, so any conclusions made are grossly premature.

The FBI has lost all credibility over the years. Anyone who thinks this is anytning less than a partisan hack weaponizing the Bureau against their political opponents really hasn't been paying attention to much in the past few years.

Reminds me of another RINO saying that when they take back both sides of congress they are going to repeal Obama Care. We are still waiting......

They all need to be disbanded. The only federal agencies we need are DoD, Army, Navy, Airforce, and Space Force. Maybe the puddle pirates too.

The system would then arrest Desantis for obstruction. The Feds got a warrant .

"The system" can't arrest anyone.

The FBI could send agents to arrest him, but they are just men. They could also be arrested.

That sort of thing is how cold civil wars become hot civil wars.
