DAILY BIBLE VERSE

FBI Releases Long-Awaited Report
By Mike Huckabee
Wednesday, the FBI released a long-awaited report on the agency’s handling of the notorious case of now-imprisoned national Olympic team doctor Larry Nassar’s sexual abuse of hundreds of female gymnasts under the guise of medical treatment. It’s a damning indictment of the agency’s failure to act to protect the athletes, but as to whether it will lead to any actual indictments of agents, or even firings or demotions or stern reprimands is an open question. We'll be lucky if they don't end up as CNN commentators.

The report found that FBI agents committed multiple failings in responding to the gymnasts’ complaints, did nothing for more than a year after learning about the allegations, and later made false statements to cover up their mistakes. Full details from the Wall Street Journal at the link. It’s yet another in a depressing series of stories that show how far the FBI has fallen since the days when it was considered the gold standard of professional law enforcement.
Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist had the best comment on this story, tweeting, “I’m shocked, shocked, to find the FBI botched an important investigation, lied in order to cover it up, and completely got away with it (again.)”
Arizona Audit News
By Mike Huckabee
While conservative media have been preoccupied with the Georgia election audit, and liberal media have been preoccupied with ignoring it, Republican state Senators in Arizona revealed some of the results of the vote audit in Maricopa County. It made it clear why Democrats have been trying so hysterically to prevent an audit that, if they are correct, should prove that they won fair and square.
Among the many problems found that caused the election process there to be labeled a “mess” were 74,000 absentee ballots that were received and counted despite there being no records of them ever being mailed out to voters by the county. Considering Biden’s margin of victory in Arizona was 10,457 votes, that seems concerning.
Fortunately, House Democrats are concerned and want to get to the bottom of this. They’ve already called for an investigation…of the audit. Maybe they could get a Capitol Police Officer to shoot the messenger for them.
A Mask Mandate In California
By Mike Huckabee
If you’re even wondering why so many Californians are fed up with their leaders, check out this chart illustrating the huge spike in COVID cases that led Los Angeles County officials to reinstate the mask mandate.

Question: If mask mandates work, why were there two far larger spikes prior to this when mask mandates and all the other draconian measures were fully in effect?
Private Security
By Mike Huckabee
New campaign finance filings show that during a three-month period when she was pushing to defund the police, far-left Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush spent nearly $70,000 on private security.

I’m waiting for her to dodge the charge of hypocrisy by calling for the government to print enough money to give every American $70,000 to hire private security.
Your Tuition Dollars At Work
By Mike Huckabee
Watch these college students express bewilderment at why pro-freedom protesters in Cuba, Hong Kong and Venezuela are waving American flags, when it’s a “controversial” symbol of racism, sexism and bigotry.

I have a question: would Cuba be willing to trade its pro-freedom protesters for our socialism-loving college students? That way, the Cubans could finally get their freedom, and the students could finally learn what socialism and oppression really are.
Not Insurrection
By Mike Huckabee
Predictably, Megyn Kelly’s statement of “That-which-must-not-spoken” (the January 6th Capitol violence was not insurrection and the Democrats are overdramatizing it worse than Fred Sanford faking a heart attack) has set the liberal media squealing like stuck pigs. As President Trump proved for four years, speaking blunt truths has a way of doing that to them. Glenn Greenwald is one of the few liberal journalists who sees through the scam.
https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/461918/
As Greenwald points out, if this is truly “insurrection,” a worse assault on the federal government than was even launched by the Confederate Army, how come nobody involved has actually been charged with insurrection? Since they’re trying to imprison grannies just for stepping inside the building and looking around, I assume that if it were possible to stretch the charges far enough to include insurrection, someone would have been charged with it by now. Maybe prosecutors realize that juries are not as pliant and gullible as CNN hosts.
