Supreme Court told accepting votes after Election Day is without precedent or legal grounds * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

Supreme Court told accepting votes after Election Day is without precedent or legal grounds * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh: 

The legal organization charges: "The whole point of the federal Election-Day statutes is to set a single uniform day for the election. Allowing ballots to trickle in days or weeks after Election Day is antithetical to that basic goal. Indeed, a patchwork of state ballot-receipt deadlines replicates the problems Congress was trying to remedy with a single national Election Day. It is entirely implausible to conclude that Congress—when thrice exercising its preemptive power under the Elections and Electors Clauses—left the door open for states to vitiate those statutes by postponing electoral outcomes with post-election ballot-receipt deadlines. Congress certainly did not leave states the power to undo this important federal time regulation by simply declaring all mailboxes to be ballot boxes."

'You can't say the F-word on live TV': Members of Congress livid over graphic Bad Bunny at Super Bowl, urge 'dramatic action' * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh: 

U.S. Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., has called on the Federal Communications Commission, which regulates the use of the public airwaves in the United States, to take action against the National Football League and Super Bowl halftime showman Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, a.k.a. Bad Bunny, for violating the law.

"You can't say the f-word on live TV. 'Bad Bunny's' disgusting halftime show was illegal. Had he said these lyrics — and all of the other disgusting and pornographic filth in English on live TV, the broadcast would have been pulled down and the fines would have been enormous

To read the lyrics, click on the link...Warning - They are very graphic.  The NFL has reached an all time low for allowing such filth for a halftime show.  This is unacceptable and needs to be addressed.

Republicans Introduce OMAR Act to Deal With Corruption in Congress

Republicans Introduce OMAR Act to Deal With Corruption in Congress: 

Blaze Media, which broke the news of the bill, noted that Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Democrat from Minnesota, reportedly shelled out $2.8 million to a political consulting firm owned by her husband during the 2019-2020 campaign season. That payment was almost 70 percent of her disbursement for the quarter.

This isn’t about personalities.

It’s about power, leadership, borders, economics, and national strength.

• Love it or oppose it — this is a presidency that governs, not manages.

A city leadership test!

 

Xi smiles-----Cal Poly fires chemistry lecturer after raising concerns about foreign hires | The College Fix

California Polytechnic State University reportedly pushed a chemistry lecturer out of her job after she raised concerns about foreign hires and learning assistants in general, and their inability to set up a safe laboratory. - Jeanine Yuen - Northwestern University

• Learning assistants frequently arrived unprepared, violated lab safety rules, and lacked basic training, the lecturer alleged. 
• This created unsafe classroom conditions for her large freshman labs of up to 64 students and meant first-year students were exposed to improper laboratory practices...

Reports to the chemistry department and the school’s health and safety team went nowhere. 

However, the department chair at the time did accuse the lecturer of an inappropriate “tone” in a performance review...

• University boots Americans, brings in foreigners...

The chemist said Cal Poly relies heavily on seemingly higher-paid, non-tenure lecturers while claiming it cannot find enough American workers to fill teaching positions. 

• The school offers a relatively low wage to American workers for the cost of living in the area. 
• However, it offers higher wages to foreign workers...

“Replacing experienced, non-tenure-track U.S. lecturers with entry-level H-1B hires does not address a labor shortage; it replaces incumbent faculty with workers who carry less institutional risk.”

Big Costs, Little Benefit: MI Healthy Climate plan will cost Michiganders $386B by 2050

Customers will cough up an extra $228.83 per monthly utility bill

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s MI Healthy Climate Plan will cost an estimated $386 billion by 2050, according to a new report published by the Mackinac Center for Public Policy.

• Whitmer’s plan could cost an extra $2,746 per energy customer annually, or an additional $228.83 per monthly utility bills, the report warns. 
• It also raises the specter of days-long blackouts.

”Michigan’s Expensive Net-Zero Gamble” comes on the heels of Whitmer saying she would lower the cost of living for state residents...

Democrats' ICE hysteria hides their deepest midterm fears - Victor Davis Hanson

Behind this stale Democrat boilerplate lies a deep fear that the Nietzschean Trump, just as he beat all their lawfare ambushes, will also do the impossible and avoid losing Congress in November.

Their Trump obsessions result in three now well-worn strategies.

• The first, of course, is still more chaos in America’s streets...
• Second, Democrats seize on every Trump art-of-the-deal excess or coarse putdown...
• Third, Democrats still rely on their ossified partnerships with the media, academia and popular culture to mouth the old talking points...

Behind this stale Democrat boilerplate lies a deep fear that the Nietzschean Trump, just as he beat all their lawfare ambushes, will also do the impossible and avoid losing Congress in November.
And they should fear.

• Trump’s catalysts for a booming 2026 economy are already in place.

No one can now stop 

• massive deregulation, 
• new tax cuts and incentives, 
• recalibrated tariffs, 
• unprecedented foreign investment, 
• record energy development and 
• emerging technologies.

All that’s needed before the midterms is more focus on the 

• current GDP boom, 
• lower inflation and 
• increased purchasing power — all in contrast to Biden’s economic disaster...
