New in Politico:

So why not, as Christie alluded to last week, stop fighting political gravity, submit to Trump and then, if he again loses, begin the Republican reformation in 2025. After all, it took Democrats three consecutive losses in the 1980s for the Democratic Leadership Council to finally gain traction and elevate one of their own in 1992.

Republicans would only have to suffer two White House defeats to finally move on from Trump and, in the meantime, there’s that Supreme Court majority he helped deliver as the political backstop.

As a shrewd Republican strategist, and no NeverTrumper, put it to me recently: “We’re just going to have to go into the basement, ride out the tornado and come back up when it’s over to rebuild the neighborhood.”

This Republican, as with a number of his like, has been hoping for a strong Trump alternative to emerge but has grown more pessimistic, DeSantis’ early stumbles confirming his doubts about the Florida governor. Moreover, there’s the matter of Roe being overturned and the political vise the party is caught in between its unyielding anti-abortion activists and a broader electorate that supports legal abortion. “We’re the dog that caught the car on Trump and abortion.”

What a great quote. "...ride out the tornado and come back up when it's over to rebuild the neighborhood."

FWIW, about 40 prank phone calls and emails today. Talk about hate! I won’t repeat the accusations. The Left can’t tolerate any dissent. Any opposition view by a conservative is “harassment.”

I shouldn’t be surprised but state senators who are lawyers are misrepresenting the Nebraska law of conflicts of interest. The statute is clear.

From "Never Ricking Morty" S4-E6

Explainer: "Never Ricking Morty" sees Rick and Morty trapped in the narrative choke of consumerism, attempting to regain control of their destinies. Most of the episode is devoted to them trying to break outside the confines of the Story Train, on which they find themselves with little explanation."

Spoiler: Rick and Morty accept Jesus into their story.

Prem Thakker in The New Republic, talking about Althouse commenter Dave Begley's Nebraska legislature ethics complaint:

Nebraska Democratic Lawmaker Under Ethics Investigation for Having a Trans Son:
The complaint alleges that state Senator Megan Hunt has a “conflict of interest” while discussing anti-trans legislation.

Latest I have heard about why Tucker is gone!
It was his speech at the Heritage Foundation where he talked about good vs evil and that we need to fight the evil in the world.
Part of that fight is to spend 10 minutes per day in prayer.
Rupert wants no one who is religious in his prime time.
Also, whoever Rupert was engaged to before marrying Mick’s ex loved Tucker and was very excited to meet him at some swanky dinner. They ended up talking about religion in front of Rupert and 2 weeks later he broke off the engagement.
Sounds like religion makes Rupert nervous.

And I tell you these rumors with as much authority as lots of other media are telling you why Tucker is out.
My assumptions have way more gravitas than those who are babbling about some crazy producer who was pissed because she saw pictures on Nancy in her bikini plastered all over the pic where Tucker’s producers worked.
Plus that silly woman never even met Tucker!

Apparently, some people believe Dylan Mulvaney mocks women.

I seem to recall Althouse pointing out the "mocking of women" with obvious displeasure. 🤔

The WaPoo is a paper for neobarbarians. WaPoo columnist Perry Bacon Jr. urged people to harass Republicans in public places such as church and the grocery store in response to some of their recent legislation. Maxine Waters would be proud of him.

Check out the post on Conservative Treehouse about new details surrounding the Mar-a-Lago search. It seems that, contrary to its cooperative approach with the last four outgoing administrations, NARA refused to cooperate with the outgoing Trump administration in collecting any documents-- including the documents they later said Trump improperly kept.

gadfly म्हणाले...

Lawyers for TFG have asked the GOP House to intervene by enacting a new law to protect Trump from the very law he signed while in office regarding the unlawful retention of classified documents.

Attorneys Parlatore, Rowley and Trusty claim the DOJ is “not the appropriate agency to conduct investigations pertaining to the mishandling or spillage of classified material.”

Apparently, these brilliant lawyers don't understand that the bill would not pass the Senate and would be vetoed if it did.

So Sen. Megan Hunt of Omaha has a conflict of interest on proposed legislation restricting gender-affirming care for minors because she has a child who is trans but those who simply do not believe in any gender-change concepts are perfectly legal in favoring the bill.

Well, Dave, I don't believe children should be subjected to such medical treatments either, but somehow the First Amendment comes into play here. Sen. Hunt shouldn't have to excuse herself from arguing if she believes she is better informed and the prank phone calls and emails from nasty supporters are common on both sides of the aisle.

"E. Jean Carroll admits in the interview that Donald Trump did not “rape” her because she did not want to identify as a victim. The woman is conflicted.

She then goes on to describe how she sexually harassed Roger Ailes.

You also confessed to sexually harassing Roger Ailes while you had a show on his cable channel America’s Talking. He is also on your list of hideous men, but was once a friend.

Oh, I did it. Every day I had a chance. I call him the pearl of his sex. Right on the air. I roll up my trouser legs. I would wait for the camera to come over. Then I would slowly pull up the right and then the left trouser leg. It would say Roger Ailes. I would say, “He’s my future husband.” It never stopped. I’d ask him to twirl for me. I adored him.

She sounds like a complete nut."

But nuts are what every single Progressive is, and they think THAT is normal.

What law are you babbling about???
Classification lives wholly in the executive branch of govt. Congress has no power to legislate anything concerning classification.
Trump has not broken any laws concerning the handling of classified documents, because he has plenary power to declassify. No Govt entity has the power to question the Presidents assertion.

I just gotta say; a grievance filed against you in these circumstances would be as meritless and as meretricious as the ethics complaint that you filed against State Sen. Hunt.

“Random Leftists in NE are threatening to file Bar grievances against me. Reasons.”

It sounds to me like David Begley is harassing the Nebraska state Senator.

“I’m beginning to regret filing my ethics complaint against Sen. Hunt.”

You should be regretful.

i wonder what an electric tank looks like, after it takes a round through its battery pack?

Dave Begley म्हणाले...

Gadfly:

Sen. Hunt's minor child stands to gain financially if the bill doesn't pass. She didn't file her conflict of interest form. This law is there to alert the public to potential corruption and financial bias. She could still vote, as long as she filed the form. This overrides her First Amendment rights.

If a bill financially benefits the public at large or a wide segment of the public, then no need to file the form. There aren't more than 500 trans minors in NE.

BTW, The Hill also reported on me. I am hated across the country.

A lawyer friend came to my office and told me that he was no longer my friend because he thought, without evidence, that somehow he would be implicated in my political activities and First Amendment stuff. This guy was a Marine. Wouldn't want to be in a foxhole with him.

I hope Ann doesn't kick me off the blog. But I have confidence in her commitment to reason and Free Speech.

Regarding David Begley’s ethics complaint against the Nebraska state Senator Megan Hunt because she has a trans child…

Should female legislators be prohibited from arguing for laws that are positive for women? Begley’s attempts to censor this state Senator is shameful. He shouldn’t be surprised there is legal pushback.

Gee, Dave Begley lodged an ethics complaint against a legislator simply because that legislator has a "trans" child?

I wonder if Inga is actually accurately characterizing the scenario....(spoiler: she isn't. she is lying...again)

I only regret it because of all the vile emails and crank calls. I was also contrasting what is happening to me now and comparing that to the permanent physical problems these trans kids will suffer. Luka Hein deeply regrets the removal of her healthy breasts.

Inga म्हणाले...

“She didn't file her conflict of interest form. This law is there to alert the public to potential corruption and financial bias.”

Why should she have? Should women legislators have to file conflict of interest forms if they are arguing for a law that benefits women?

Begley, your ethics complaint against this woman sound frivolous and malicious.

Russia Collusion Truther and Hillary/FBI Hoax Dossier Dead Ender Inga: "It sounds to me like David Begley is harassing the Nebraska state Senator."

Yes.

A leftist wrote that about supposed "harassment" of a politician, just now, in 2023, as if the last 20 years never happened at all.

Dr Weevil म्हणाले...

Some others have almost said this, but I think it's worth spelling out:

No, what the Montana Tranzi and the Tennessee 3 did was not like what Trump did on January 6th, 2021. They actually did what he was falsely accused of doing.

And more: none of the January 6th demonstrators got near a legislator, and Trump never got within a mile or so of any of them. These guys and their mobs of rioting supporters were physically threatening legislators in person.

Justice demands that the four legislators and their riotous friends be punished accordingly. They should all be locked up in miserable conditions. How long? Until 2+ years after the D.C. prisoners are released. Anything else would show a gross and grotesque double standard.

Mark म्हणाले...

It is well past time for David Begley to get his own damn blog.

Why does he have to constantly post his own personal trans hate bullshit here?

Jaq म्हणाले...

Did you know that a person with Wikileaks, former ambassador from the UK, said that a memory card containing the DNC emails was personally handed to him in a park in Washington DC by a go-between for person or persons who were "disgusted" with the way the DNC knifed Bernie Sanders to get Hillary the nomination?

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4034038/Ex-British-ambassador-WikiLeaks-operative-claims-Russia-did-NOT-provide-Clinton-emails-handed-D-C-park-intermediary-disgusted-Democratic-insiders.html

It was simply not a "Russian hack," it was a leak from within the Democratic Party, remarkably similar to what happened with the Climategate leak. It was leaked by somebody like, for example, Seth Rich, who was a Bernie supporter.

Basically by using the tactic, which Hillary wrote about in her senior thesis, from Rules for Radicals, which is to "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it," they pushed a fake narrative and suppressed any stories which countered it.

I am sure lots of you go along with this tactic implicitly by believing everything they tell you about Trump, and for that matter, Putin, regardless of the evidence, when it is looked at in the cold light of day. They just lie to you all day long, and shut people up who point out the lies, and call them liars themselves, no need for evidence. Nobody cares about evidence.

This is why they are attempting, and may succeed, to silence Tucker Carlson, it's speaking power to truth. It's all gonna collapse though, just as every empire has collapsed in the past.

Thanks for your input. I'm sure Althouse will give it all the consideration it deserves.

As for "trans hate BS here", sorry dude. We are never going to say its okay for you lefty psychos to confuse kids, sexualize them and then mutilate them physically just to advance your political goals.

Never.

Drago म्हणाले...

It's really quite fascinating how the blog lefties and their LLR-democratical allies spend so much time attempting to dictate who should and should not be allowed to participate on Althouse's creation.

The sense of entitlement and clear desperation to remove any dissenting voices from their lefty/dem/LLR-democratical bubble has reached a fever pitch.

Mark म्हणाले...

Drago, maybe you should make the point about dictating who is allowed to dissent on the the Zephyr/Montana thread.

Your buddies have no problem deciding whether elected officials should be denied speech, making your stupid rant here hypocrisy at it's best.

Dave Begley म्हणाले...

Mark:

I have a great deal of sympathy and empathy for kids who are duped into changing genders. The testimony of Luka Hein before the NE Unicameral committee was absolutely heartbreaking. I nearly cried.

At age 16, Luka and her parents were duped and tricked by doctors at Nebraska Medicine. They removed her healthy breasts and then pumped her full of drugs. She regrets it. She has a deep voice. She says she has bone issues and is in pain.

The "experts" told her parents: You can either have a living son or a dead daughter. The same line was used at Washington University's gender clinic.

This is evil stuff. And many of the people pushing this trans business are political activists, unhinged or in it for the money. Big Pharma loves the annuity from drug sales.

gahrie म्हणाले...

"Transgenderism" is a perfect wedge issue to divide us and to make us easy to control.

If it was just about adults mutilating themselves, no one would really give a shit. It is the Left's insistence on the chemical and physical mutilation of confused and ill children that pisses us off.

Am I the only who remembers how outraged women were when female circumcision became an issue? The MSM and Left even labeled it FGM (Female genital mutilation). (Again no one gives a shit that circumcision is the norm for American boys)

Merely tolerating the mentally ill transgenders is hateful according to Mark. Objecting to men using the transgender label to participate in women's sports and be housed in women's prisons is perfectly is hate speech. Mutilating kids in the name of transgenderism is acceptable healthcare, never mind that these kids will be sterile afterwards.

The transgender cult's motto is "Obey or else!" Just like all Marxist, fascists, Nazis, Socialist and Communists.

The CEO of CrowdStrike testified in front of congress that CrowdStrike never saw evidence the emails were sent across the internet. The FBI testified they never did their own analysis of the data selected by the DNC and turned over to the FBI, by CrowdStrike
The FBI reached their conclusion from a draft report written by Crowd Strike.

"Jacobins". I'm surprised that the New Republic writer knows how serious a term of derogation that is. I don't right away see the merit to David Begley's ethics complaint but that New Republic article was a great example of amusing nonsense.

Daniel12 म्हणाले...

over and over, Begley writes some version of:

"Sen. Hunt's minor child stands to gain financially if the bill doesn't pass. She didn't file her conflict of interest form. This law is there to alert the public to potential corruption and financial bias. She could still vote, as long as she filed the form. This overrides her First Amendment rights."

Over and over, people around him (including, apparently, his now former friends) point out that this is plain harassment and provide countless examples of why the logic would require most anyone to recuse themself from voting on a vast array of legislation.

And then Begley just posts it again.

Either you aren't thinking and don't know your point is plainly wrong. Or you don't care that your point is plainly wrong and are attempting to use this stupid little not-a-loophole to push your political beliefs. Which makes it harrassment. There aren't other options.
