Did anyone vote for this?

[David J Harris Jr @DavidJHarrisJr]

🚨BREAKING: American Islamic scholar Ieasha Prime told the Muslim American Society Annual Convention that Islam will take over America and that they will fight and die to make it happen.

Speaking inside the United States, she asked: “Could America ever become filled with Islam? Could Islamic values ever take over and rule here?”

Her answer was clear: “Absolutely. God Almighty will make this a place where people declare ‘There is no god but Allah.’”

She then praised the holy warriors: “They say, ‘Oh God, give me another chance to fight for You. Even if I get killed for You.’ No matter what threats they face, we will not only survive, we will thrive.”

This is jihad and martyrdom, described openly by an American Muslim activist on American soil. Muslims here are declaring that America will become a Muslim country.

Mass deportations are required. This cannot continue.

What kind of Senate Leader says he is a fighter then recesses for a 3 day weekend…?

[Gunther Eagleman™ @GuntherEagleman]

🚨 LMAO! John Thune is sending the Senate home for a THREE-DAY WEEKEND with less than two months left before Democrats take over.

Starting January 3rd, NOT ONE MORE conservative judge gets confirmed. 

Ron DeSantis said he'd roll cots into the Senate cloakroom and make them work around the clock. 
Thune packed his bags instead.

Trump asked for the reconciliation bill, and Thune's team says senators can just "work from their states."
That isn't leadership. It's SURRENDER. 🤣

John Thune is a FAILURE and a COWARD, and every Republican who voted for him should be furious.

Get back to Washington and do your job.

@RyanAFournier Call the Senate back into session,@LeaderJohnThune! You should be working non-stop with only breaks for Thanksgiving and Christmas days. You took plenty of time off over the last two years.

[Ryan Fournier @RyanAFournier]

🚨 BREAKING: The Senate has ADJOURNED until Monday while President Trump has 150+ nominees awaiting confirmation, including federal judges!

Republicans should be working WEEKENDS, not taking breaks.

The clock is ticking before Democrats take power.

GET BACK TO WORK! 🇺🇸

So many people have either forgotten the purpose of the Electoral College or were never taught it in school.

The Electoral College was one element in a system of checks, balances, and federal structure intended (among other goals) to mitigate pure majority rule, filter out populist passions (see Hamilton in Federalist 68), and balance large/small states. It was not solely or exclusively “designed to prevent heavily populated areas from dominating,” though the state-based allocation produces that practical effect relative to a pure national popular vote. In short, the Framers rejected pure democracy as prone to majority tyranny and the Electoral College is one of the checks put in place to mitigate the risk of a tyrannical government being put in place by a pure numerical majority.

[Just Facts @realjustfacts]

Pete Buttigieg claims that the Electoral College “makes no sense” and should be abolished because it is a remnant of “some very arcane, parochial politics in the 1770s.”

IN FACT, the Electoral College is a safeguard against mobocracy, which the authors of the Constitution rejected because it allows the majority to easily violate the rights of the minority. Here are the specifics:

• Early during the convention at which the U.S. Constitution was written, James Madison, the father of the Constitution and primary author of the Bill of Rights, declared that the new government they were creating must provide “more effectually for the security of private rights and the steady dispensation of Justice.”

• He then stressed that violations of these ideals “had more perhaps than any thing else, produced this convention.”

• Madison then singled out “democracy” as the cause of those abuses and pointed out that all societies are “divided into different Sects, Factions, and interests,” and “where a majority are united by a common interest or passion, the rights of the minority are in danger.”

• Continuing, he stated that this is “verified by the histories of every country” and is the cause of slavery, “the most oppressive dominion ever exercised by man over man.”

• Thus, Madison emphasized that it was the duty of the Convention to “frame a republican system” of government that would better “guard one part of the society against the injustice of the other part.”

• Elaborating on that point, Madison stated that the “only defense against the inconveniencies of democracy consistent with the democratic form of government” is to “divide the community into so great a number of interests and parties, that in the first place a majority will not be likely at the same moment to have a common interest separate from that of the whole or of the minority; and in the second place, that in case they should have such an interest, they may not be apt to unite in the pursuit of it.”

• Other delegates to the Convention concurred, like Edmund Randolph of Virginia, who observed “that the general object was to provide a cure for the evils under which the U.S. labored; that in tracing these evils to their origin every man had found it in the turbulence and follies of democracy.”

• For the purpose of curbing such evils, Madison and the other framers of the Constitution developed a system of checks and balances on the powers of the government that they formed, such as the separation of powers between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, the Constitutional amendment process, the Bill of Rights, and the Electoral College.

• The Electoral College was designed to prevent heavily populated areas from dominating the election for president. As shown in the electoral precinct map from Washington State University professor Ryne Rohla, the vast majority of America’s communities voted for Donald Trump in 2016. Yet Hillary Clinton’s popular vote count was higher, mainly due to support in big cities.

• In essays explaining the Constitution’s protections against mob rule and government power, Madison wrote, “In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.”

• Those principles produced the U.S. Constitution, which is the world’s longest-standing written constitution and an exemplar for many other countries that have copied its provisions into their constitutions.

@SenRandPaul I served in the Air Force to defend the Constitution - including the Electoral College. I'm more than willing to defend it now too, in whatever way is required.

@glennbeck Great work Glenn!

@libsoftiktok @CivilRights @grok does this bill violate employment discrimination statutes and/or the Equal Protection Clause (14th Amendment and Maryland Declaration of Rights Article 24)?

A mother and two of her two children were killed in Missouri by this illegal alien truck driver.

How did this illegal alien wind up behind the wheel of a truck on a Missouri highway? He was released into our country under Joe Biden’s open border policies in 2023. And then “sanctuary” state Illinois issued him a commercial driver’s license.

This is why we need strong immigration enforcement and not just at the border.

This illegal alien didn’t have a criminal record and if he had been arrested the day before this crash, the Left and weak politicians would’ve cried foul but it would’ve prevented these tragic deaths.

Please say a prayer for this family, as well as the other victims and their loved ones.

@MarioNawfal #Democrats are only about defending America if they can a: make money on it or b: increase their power as a result of it.

I can say with good authority that if TCAVA is signed into law the VA will likely use the new rules regarding Tinnitus and Sleep Apnea as a template for rating other medical conditions. In other words, veterans wouldn't be rated on for the conditions themselves, they would essentially be rated on how they're responding to treatment for those conditions.
