* Rep. Cory Mills (R-Florida) has suggested the Republican Party move its national convention date to July 4th so that Donald Trump can be nominated on Independence Day. Boy, would I LOVE to see that!
* In response to the rigged felony conviction of Donald Trump in New York this week, Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) tweeted, “No one in this country is above the law – including former President Trump.”
* To which New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino responded: “The guy who illegally tried to stop a congressional vote by pulling a fire alarm and got in zero trouble for it wants you to know that nobody is above the law.”
* Mr. Bowman obviously lacks in the self-awareness department. And, um, if nobody is above the law, then why are there so many illegal aliens running free all around our country?
* I had to show photo ID yesterday to buy…AIR! I kid you not.
* Went to the store to pick up a cannister of compressed air to clean out my daughter’s computer. When I scanned it at the self-checkout counter, a wait-for-clerk message popped up on the register.
* I actually had to show a photo ID to buy…AIR! But not to vote? Gimme a break.
* On Friday, Republican Congressional District 4 candidate Dave Filippo sent out a dishonest fundraising email in which he wrote…
“The President got convicted in a Kangaroo Court and John Lee when asked if Trump was convicted would he support him; Lee said this: ‘That’s a good question…that’s a hard question it really really is. I’m not gonna answer that question.”
* As he shouldn’t have. It was a totally hypothetical question posed by an ass-clown liberal interviewer MONTHS before the New York jury decision against Trump came down. There was no way for Lee – Flippo’s GOP primary opponent – to know what was going to happen.
* In reality, here’s what Lee wrote on Twitter/X immediately after the jury decision was handed down: “The real verdict will come on November 5th. #Trump2024.”
* It’s a shame Flippo and his incompetent campaign management team felt they had to lie to voters about Mr. Lee’s position in order to scare up a few bucks. Too bad there’s no “truth in advertising” law that applies to politics.
EARLY VOTING UPDATE
In the GOP primary for U.S. Senate, I’m still waiting to see if and/or who Donald Trump endorses.
So no, I haven’t decided in that race yet – though I continue to be concerned about Sam Brown’s electability and what he’d actually do in office, especially after his major league flip-flop on Yucca Mountain a week ago.
He had it right…before he came under political pressure to change position. Not a good look. Harbinger of things to come?
And since so many Brown supporters have been obnoxiously telling me the election is over and Sam already has this “in the bag,” I guess they won’t mind if I don’t vote for him in the primary?
At this point, it doesn’t look like Trump is going to make any endorsement in this race. I suspect his heart lies with Jeff Gunter, but the writing on the wall appears to be for Brown. So if I had to vote today – I don’t – I’d likely vote for either Gunter or Tony Grady.
