Welcome but unsurprising news
By Mike Huckabee
Georgia State Rep. Vernon Jones announced that he’s switching parties from Democrat to Republican. He said the GOP desperately needs leaders who know how to fight, and after fighting back against the outrage mobs that came after him for daring to say Trump’s policies helped black Americans, he proved he’s one of those.
Sen. Joe Manchin, are you listening?
Larry Correia asks an excellent question
By Mike Huckabee
You might remember Larry Correia as the accountant-turned-novelist whose blog surveyed other forensic accountants, insurance investigators and other fraud experts on their opinion of the 2020 presidential election (the consensus was that if they saw that many red flags in any private business, they’d launch an investigation.)
He has another excellent piece out that asks a simple question that our government leaders might have a hard time answering: Why does the government have thousands of auditors across multiple agencies whose sole job is to examine us with a fine tooth comb to insure we’re following the rules, because they can’t take our word for it…but if we have questions about how they run elections, we’re supposed to accept whatever excuses they give us as the truth, then shut up and go away without looking for ourselves?
Good commentary
By Mike Huckabee
This is a good commentary from RedState.com about what happened in Washington Wednesday and how it’s the sad but inevitable result of a long series of bad decisions, many of them by people who are now trying to claim a moral high ground that they have no right to.
Progressives are pressuring Breyer
By Mike Huckabee
“Progressives” who are still smarting over Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s refusal to retire while Obama was in office are already pressuring liberal Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, 82, to retire so that Joe Biden can replace him with “a young, black woman.” Their claim to be anti-racist would be more convincing if they’d offered a name instead.
Focus Group-Tested Word Alert
By Mike Huckabee
I’ve noticed that anyone who points out that the same Democrats who supported violent leftist protesters who attacked federal buildings are now condemning violent rightwing protesters who attack federal buildings is being accused of “whataboutism.” For those unfamiliar with this word, it’s a made-up term that means “Stop pointing out my hypocrisy.”
Good news for the people of California
By Mike Huckabee
The petition to recall Gov. Gavin Newsom just reached 1 million signatures. They still need nearly half a million more before March 10 to trigger a special election. I have a feeling that won’t be a problem, since people can sign the petition from their homes, and thanks to Newsom, they’ll probably be stuck there with nothing else to do until at least March 10.
The Squad Gets A Promotion
By Mike Huckabee
If you’re wondering what the radical “Squad” members got in exchange for voting for Nancy Pelosi as Speaker, we’ll now have to contend with them being on powerful committees that have direct effect on our lives. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez immediately made it clear that she considers the Democrats’ miniscule majority in the House and tie vote in the Senate to be a mandate to cram a lot of ruinous radical left policies down an unwilling nation’s throat. Yes, this will end well.
Excellent article
By Mike Huckabee
Excellent article from the Federalist (published before Wednesday’s Congressional upheaval), debunking the media outlets that think they’ve “debunked” the notion that there was anything untrustworthy about the November election.
Mike Pence's praiseworthy speech
By Mike Huckabee
When Congress reconvened after yesterday’s shutdown, Vice President Mike Pence made a speech that’s getting praise from both sides. There’s a full transcript here.
