[FoxNews] The 1,800-page bill also includes anti-DEI and anti-CRT measures.
Will the Senate pass it and President Biden sign it before the end of the session, or will they have to redo it in January after President Trump is sworn in?
Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said the bill "refocuses our military on its core mission of defending America and its interests around the globe by supporting law enforcement operations and the deployment of the National Guard to the southwest border, expediting innovation and reducing the acquisition timeline for new weaponry, supporting our allies and strengthening our nuclear posture and missile defense programs."

I don’t understand how psych meds bar your enlistment, but these meds are ok. Delta Force guys and Seals are discharged for taking steroids, but this is OK.

[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] A new report has revealed that 21 George Soros ...either Ernst Stavro Blofeld or Auric Goldfinger come true... -linked district attorneys across the United States have been replaced by "tough-on-crime" prosecutors. The report also noted that four have left office, either through recall efforts or other means.
Among those listed by the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund were former Portland District Attorney Mike Schmidt, who lost a May election to Democrat challenger Nathan Vasquez, Western Judicial Circuit District Attorney Deborah Gonzalez, who lost her reelection bid to Kalki Yalamanchili, and Kim Foxx, the former Cook County State's Attorney who in 2023 announced that she would not seek reelection.
For those who were removed from office, there is Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens, who in November was indicted on federal bribery charges, and Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price, who was recalled last month after serving just 18 months in office, per The National News Desk.
Replacements also noted by the report were Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, who lost to challenger Nathan Hochman in last month's election, and former Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby, who lost the 2022 Democratic primary election to Ivan Bates. Since her election loss, Mosby has been found guilty of one count of mortgage fraud.
The district attorneys' links to Soros are defined by the organization as meeting one of three categories: "receiving campaign support from Soros-funded or affiliated groups," participating in soros groups' sponsored programming, or "signing 3 or more public statements or amicus briefs coordinated by Soros-funded criminal justice groups (i.e. Fair and Just Prosecution).
The report also noted that 13 new Soros-linked prosecutors have been elected into office since 2022, and 8 Soros-linked prosecutors have been replaced by other soft-on-crime prosecutors.

How about we start limiting campaign donations to only those made by Living Registered US Citizen Voters ONLY. Then cap the donations at, say $2000 per person, per campaign.
Thus banning Uber-Rich Elites, Special Interest groups, MSM, and etc. from buying elections.
Where they currently steer campaigns to install Federal, State and local Government puppets to their bidding?
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances
What we want is transparency. Individuals should not be limited on how much they give but must be clear and open record of such and with a "no later than date". No PACs, no fronts, no astroturfing with significant criminal penalties for false or misrepresentations.

Part of what made Soros’s DA plan so successful was that no one was paying attention. It was like Moneyball. He exploited an inefficiency in the market for owning politicians at the DA level. The gambit changed the market and now people are paying attention. His group will move on and try to destroy us a different way.

[PJM] She and Miss Lindsey getting a little too big for their britches.
Eventually, everything in politics goes full circle. If you wait long enough, it all turns Ecclesiastes 3.
Take Joni Ernst, the junior senator from Iowa, for example. She burst onto the national scene, pledging to “cut pork” in a very memorable way:
Video at the link.
When your opening line is, “I’m Joni Ernst, I grew up castrating hogs on an Iowa farm,” not only do you have our attention — you’ve got us squirming in our seats. (Ouch.)
Before the castration spot aired, Ernst was struggling to raise money, trailing Republican frontrunner Mark Jacobs by several points for the GOP nomination. Conservative women — including Sarah Palin — found the ad humorous, endorsed her candidacy, and helped Ernst build her war chest. Within months, she was the undisputed frontrunner.
And in 2020, she was elected to her second term in the Senate.
Unfortunately, there’s a disease endemic to D.C. called “turning native.” For whatever reason, it seems to infect conservatives more than liberals. There’s no known cure. (Symptoms include the sudden abandonment of traditional beliefs; invitations to “trendy” house parties; and oodles of donations from cabals of liberal bigwigs. Consult your doctor for more information.)
Over the past few days, Joni Ernst has emerged as the face of the Republican opposition to President-elect Trump’s nominee for secretary of defense, Pete Hegseth. She stood in judgment of his candidacy and (according to media reports) found him lacking. As her hometown paper noted, she strongly suggested that Hegseth is unworthy of being secretary of defense.
This is the same Joni Ernst who voted in favor of Lloyd Austin, President Biden’s selection for secretary of defense.
And now, her hometown paper has detected an Iowa backlash. She’s in danger of being primaried:
This is a novel development. In fact, it’s unprecedented.
For generations, “conservative” Republicans would talk a big game back home, but then “go native” when they were elected to congress. During election years, they’d put on their overalls back on and pose by a pickup truck, but all those years in between? They’re dressed to the nines, hitting all the trendiest cocktail parties, cutting backdoor deals with Democrats.
D.C. is a wonderful town for a squishy Republican. You’re seen as one of the few “good ones,” and you get the “John McCain treatment”: fawning, adoring, positive press… just as long as you never threaten their power base.
During the 2024 campaign, MAGA activists changed the rules. Now, there’s a very high cost to “going native.”
And the mainstream media can’t cover for you anymore.

Still amazed that the Nikki Haley political carcass is not hitting home to the RINOs. Now is not the time to drop the camouflage.

[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] Chelsea Manning ...formerly Bradley Manning before he decided to become a girl. He, or she or whatever it was, was a misfit Army intel analyst who decided to leak all the secrets he could lay hands on. Sentenced to 35 years in Leavenworth, he was sprung on an Obamapardon in 2017.... , the infamous military intelligence leaker, was arrested on Thursday for illegally occupying a women's restroom at the US Capitol complex. Manning, 36, a trans-identified biological male, was among dozens of trans activists protesting House Speaker Mike Johnson's new rule that prohibits men from using female restrooms on US Capitol grounds.
US Capitol Police told the New York Post that officers arrested 15 people "for illegally protesting inside the Cannon House Office building," a demonstration that violated "DC Code 22-1307 - crowding, obstructing, or incommoding."
In 2013, Manning, a former Army intelligence analyst, was sentenced to 35 years in prison for leaking confidential military intelligence material to WikiLeaks. Manning was released from prison in 2017 after President Barack Obama How much damage could he do in four years?... Eight, then... commuted Manning's sentence. While imprisoned, Manning underwent gender reassignment treatments and started to identify as a woman named "Chelsea." Manning was born as a biological male named Bradley.
Demonstrators organized an occupation inside the women's restroom near Speaker Johnson's office, expressing their outrage at Johnson and Mace. Some of the signs they brandished while chanting at the politicians said "Congress Stop Pissing On Our Rights" and "Flush Bathroom Bigotry."
Rep. Mace, who has remained steadfast in safeguarding female-only spaces amid repeated threats from radical trans activists, quipped at the group on X and mocked them outside the cop shoppe with a blowhorn. "From leaking state secrets to taking leaks in women's restroom, just can't seem to get it right," she wrote, particularly aiming at Manning.
The ongoing debacle began when Rep. Mace said she would be introducing a resolution that sought to prohibit men who identify as transgender from using female facilities inside the Capitol, citing the recent election of transgender Delaware rep-elect Sara McBride (D). Shortly after, Speaker Johnson adopted a resolution requiring bathrooms at the Capitol to be for same-sex use.

MD-Doctors assisting, or conducting Sex Change operations, should be stripped of their medical licenses. Given it is clear, they are facilitating, not treating a mental illness. Thus violating their Hippocratic Oath by doing a greater harm.
BTW: As far as I am concerned. "IT" is just another example of the Obama Admin that started this Pro-perversion movement.

Can you imagine the excitement of the group when they confirmed that Manning would join their protest? It probably made Ru Paul’s rejection sting just a little less.

Does using the wrong bathroom get you on the sex perv list?
Where, NN2N1? They closed them all during the One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest period. There are a few very expensive, private long-term residential programs, emergency psych wards in hospitals that usually keep people between three and thirty days for diagnosis, detox, and suicide de-escalation. Other than that the options are prison psych wards for those who have killed, living on the street, or outpatient treatment if the crazy person agrees he needs help. If he does not see a need for help, in this country it’s generally illegal to force someone to be treated, except in an emergency, imminent-danger-to-self-or-others situation — and that gets us back to the 3-30 days in the hospital emergency psych ward for diagnosis and stabilization.
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] YouTuber Tim Pool's lawsuit against Kamala HQ, which represents and posts on behalf of Kamala Harris once a marijuana-busting Caliphornia DA ' presidential campaign on X, reached a successful conclusion on Friday. While the details of the settlement have not been made public, Pool posted that he was "satisfied" with the result along with a screen capture showing that the allegedly defaming post from Kamala HQ had been deleted. In his suit against the campaign, Pool had asked for a retraction: the deletion of the post is essentially that.
"The lawsuit between I, Tim Pool, and The Kamala Harris Campaign has been resolved to my satisfaction," he said. "Thank You." One of the things his suit against the campaign alleged was that he had suffered "reputational harm" at the hands of the Kamala campaign. The deletion of their post, while it does not fully repair that damage, reveals that the campaign has been made fully aware of their falsehood against Pool.
When asked if he thought this resolution was an indication that things are finally getting back to even, and how far he thinks we still have to go, he said "I think it's getting better. I think we are winning," but mentioned two recent events from this week that give him pause, namely the ongoing Daniel Penny trial and the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. "The Daniel Penny verdict and the CEO liquidation shows the far left is still here and still dangerous." The chorus of leftists practically cheering the death of the CEO was deafening and Penny could end up facing another trial on manslaughter charges.
The suit had originated in September of this year when Kamala HQ accused Pool of being a "Trump operative" and claimed that he wanted to "execute those who don't support Trump if he wins." This text was accompanying a video clip from Pool's Timcast IRL where he was in fact advocating exactly against the death penalty and against political retribution. Kamala HQ prescribed views to Pool that were actually entirely anathema to his beliefs and cut the clip out of context to uphold their bold, salacious, derogatory claim.
In response to the post, Pool said "I have engaged legal counsel. We are preparing to take action. More to come." That "more" came when Pool filed a suit against Kamala Harris' campaign, taking aim at every one of their allegations and discrediting them.
"Trump operatives say their Project 2025 plan is to give Trump total, unchecked legal power so they can jail and execute those who don't support Trump if he wins," Kamala Harris' campaign posted on X, along with an out-of-context clip, noting by way of accusation that "They have since scrubbed this video from YouTube."
Pool stated that he was never associated with the Heritage Foundation or their massive publication called Project 2025, that he opposes capital punishment and always has, and that the video in question was not "scrubbed" as the campaign said but was removed by Pool due the potential interpretation of comments made by a guest on the show to be calls for violence.
"I feel that the lies from the Kamala campaign have become so shockingly, shockingly egregious, they strike at the conscience of any good, rational American," Pool said.
"We are preparing a lawsuit against the Kamala Harris campaign due to a defamatory statement posted on X which is extreme, egregious," Pool continued at the time, "and I just got to say, outright psychotic in accusing me, me personally, as well as Laura Loomer, but we are two separate individuals, of calling for unchecked legal power so that they, meaning Trump and his allies, can jail and execute anyone who doesn't support Trump if he wins, which is a shocking and egregious lie that goes so far beyond the pale. I, well, I just can't even. It's shocking and downright insane."
