“We are now at the pinnacle of presidential pardon powers - the preemptive pardon - the ultimate test of Contitutional law. Should the Supreme Court be asked to weigh in? What if the President was incompetent? What if the President was complicit in the same crimes pardoned!?” WOW
I’ll be looking forward to watching Corbin Burnes in a @DBacks jersey next year — and very glad to see that Arizona’s lowest flat tax in the nation is what brought him to AZ!
Sorry @GavinNewsom@JustinTrudeau!
This is the new state of Arizona logo. I had no idea we had a new logo but it was introduced in late August. But it’s in the news today because this cost Arizona taxpayers $700K! And the @GovernorHobbs fake tourism director, Lisa Urias, reportedly gave the contract to her brother!
Wow. BRUTAL words for her fellow liberals from Democratic strategist @JulieRoginsky on CNN:
“I’m going to speak some hard truths...We are not be party of common sense, which is the message the voters sent to us...When we address Latino voters...as Latinx, for instance, b/c that’s the politically correct thing to do, it makes them think we don’t even live in the same planet as they do. When we are too afraid to say that, hey, college kids, if you're trashing the campus of Columbia University b/c you’re unhappy about some sort of policy and you’re taking over a university and you’re trashing it and preventing other students from learning, that is unacceptable. But we’re so worried about alienating one or another cohort in our coalition that we do not know what to say when normal people look at that and say, wait a second. I send my kids to college so they can learn, not so they can burn buildings and trash lawns, right? And so on and so forth. When we put pronouns after names and say she/her as opposed to saying, you know what, if I call you by the wrong pronoun, call me out. I am sorry. I won't do it again. But stop with the virtue signaling and speak to people like they’re normal. There is nothing that I'm going to say to Shermichael that I’m not going to say to your or I’m not going to say to somebody else. I speak the same language to everybody. But that’s not what Democrats do. We constantly try to parse out different ways of speaking because our focus groups or polling shows that so-and-so appeals to such and such. That’s not how normal people think. It is not common sense and we need to start being the part of common sense again. Joe Biden is not responsible for that, neither is Kamala Harris. That is a problem that Democrats have had for years. I’ve been banging the drum on this for I don’t know how — probably ten years on this. We need to get back to being the party of common sense that people look at us and say we understand you. We appreciate what you say because you speak our language. And, until we do that, we should stop blaming other people for our own mistakes.”
"This election is something of an indictment on the political information complex. The story that was portrayed was not true. We were just ignoring the fundamentals."
Scott Jennings does a flawless job taking down an entire panel of woke CNN hosts.

I will have more to say about everything soon, but I’m going to put aside my normal rule about not making predictions to make some (knowing I might be wrong….):
1. As I wrote a few days ago on https://t.co/aCe4Ee8q7o, the Democratic Party, lacking clear agreement about why Trump won and lacking an obvious once-in-a-generation talent to lead them back, is going to be at Trump’s mercy for a good long while.
2. Trump’s government will be filled with a lot of senior officials who will reassure Wall Street, foreign capitals, and a lot of Trump haters (at least the ones with open minds).
3. Trump will at the start have an enormous amount of influence over Congress, from leadership elections to the legislative agenda.
4. The Dominant Media won’t come close to taking responsibility for their role in helping Trump win, won’t fire those whose bias and incompetence has been on display for as long as a decade, won’t take the steps necessary to understand the Trump movement, and won’t reorient for the next four years in any meaningful way.
5. None of the Democrats who some pined for in 2024 to be their presidential nominee will play a significant role in trying to shape the party or the nation.
6. When honest political scientists study the dimensions of Trump’s win, they will realize that Trump’s remaking of the Republican Party in 2016 (turning it into a white working-class party) was nothing compared to what happened this time – turning it into a Black, Hispanic, white, young, independent working-class party.
7. Trump will, in fact, end the Ukraine war, safeguard Israel’s security, increase energy production, decrease regulations, cut taxes, control the Mexico border, conduct a mass deportation, and change a myriad of social policies.
8. The remarkable achievement of Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita will be adequately appreciated in some quarters, but not in others.
9. As already predicted, we will now see the largest mental health crisis in American history, as tens of millions of Americans – and many of the nation’s liberal cultural institutions, including Hollywood – can’t handle the truth about what happened and why.
10. The Lincoln Project leaders will do even less soul searching than the newsroom denizens of the Washington Post and New York Times.
11. The stories of how Kamala Harris became the Democratic nominee, the pasts of Harris and Doug Emhoff, the coverup of Joe Biden’s loss of mental acuity, and how the attempts to keep Trump off the ballot, lawfare, and other anti-democratic efforts aimed at stopping Trump ironically backfired will only be told if the right people get the right book deals.
12. We won’t know who has the House majority anytime soon.
To be continued….
🚨Kevin O’Leary says Democrats were too radical; that America “fixed itself” — and Democrats owe Trump a debt of gratitude for reining them in.
“The system self-corrected. When you try and break the American model, it fixes itself."
"Donald Trump saved them tonight, too, because they're going to have to take a spatula to these policies, and bring it back to the center over the next four years and in a way, reset."
“Whether you love Trump or you hate him every Democrat owes him a thank you very much, Mr. President."
Congratulations to President @realDonaldTrump and Vice President-elect @JDVance. Americans have spoken. Now is the time to bridge our deep political divides and get America back on track!
