There is an old saying in politics that "ya dance with who brung ya" but there are sometimes a few ego-centered politicians who just don't get it. With all the reforms so badly needed in education, it is sad that the Democrats have subverted this pair of opportunists on the Craven BOE. We even had this fiasco happen once in the NC House with the Richard Morgan rebellion where the voters gave us a 61-59 majority but Richard Morgan and a few allies handed power back to the Democrats. OF course, they paid for that as all but one of them got taken out in the next two rounds of primaries.

Hi
I am a volunteer in Kherson region in Ukraine and I must admit that the situation has become extremely dire. The Russian forces are intensifying their attacks almost on an hourly basis, which has resulted in a cut off of all essential supplies and clothing. With extreme cold and lack of food supplies, it has become extremely difficult for innocent Ukrainian civilians to survive, most of whom are homeless. Internet and all communications are heavily censored and down most of the time. We have been promised foreign aid by countless charities and organisations but in reality, hardly anything arrives. I suspect that all deliveries are being intercepted by Russian troops. As a last resort, I am appealing to beaufortcountynow.com to help Ukrainian civilians in the region with all essential supplies. We would ideally need medical supplies, food (non-perishable or longer lasting), warm clothing and anything else you may be able to provide. If you are able to deliver help, please could you send it to the below address which we are using as shelter for the time being. Kherson State Agrarian University Stritenska St, 23 Kherson, Kherson Oblast Ukraine, 73006 Alternatively, we are also accepting cryptocurrency donations as conventional banking instruments are simply not available to us. If you do not have cryptocurrency, you can easily purchase and send it from Coinbase, Coinpayments, Coin Mama or alternative providers. Below are the wallet addresses of our local humanitarian volunteer group: Bitcoin: bc1q9uun7eny4t8pvlq7 lmz39z9rr7rm3vw849hq wv Ethereum: 0xa74cce7805342F10df 39B698342380f58bB709 b5 No donation is too small and will be most appreciated. I would like to send you some pictures and video footage of the atrocities in the region but unfortunately, the internet is too slow and very intermittent. I would be most appreciative if you could share this message on social media and your friends to raise awareness about the situation and lobby your local government to provide more support to Ukrainian army. Thank you for you help. Best wishes Numbers Ricker

Mitch McConnell is also incredibly unpopular with the voters, with positive ratings down in the single digits, which makes him a drag on the whole GOP Senate ticket. His rating with voters is much worse than Biden or Pelosi or GOP House leader McCarthy. One post election poll put his positive rating at 8% and another at 7%, while his negative ratings are in the 70s. McConnell is unpopular with everybody - Republicans, Independents, and Democrats, although ironically his most favorable numbers come from Democrats.
A Senate race in Colorado several election cycles back show McConnell's distain for both conservatives and the grassroots. In Colorado, the easiest way to get on the primary ballot is to win over a certain percentage of the state GOP convention vote, and the less easy way is by petition. Usually, two to three candidates get enough convention votes to make the primary ballot, but that year, grassroots support was so strong for a black conservative county commissioner that he took the convention by storm and was the only one making the primary ballot from the convention. McConnell's annointed candidate, a squishy state legislator, had to get on by petition. When the votes were counted in the primary, the black conservative county commission won by a wide margin, while McConnell's candidate ran a distant fourth. Initial polls for the general election showed a tight race, but McConnell in a huff announced his PAC was pulling out of Colorado because the nominee could not win. The Republican nominee's campaign took a big hit on fundraising from McConnell's knife in the back and ended up losing the seat. McConnell plays a "rule or ruin" game with conservatives.

Commented on Shocking lab investigation of COVID shotsWhile there are some common problems between the mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) and the non-mRNA vaccines, the problems seem to be of a much greater order of mahnitude in the mRNA shots. Those are the ones that a statewide grand jury, approved by the state Supreme Court, is investigating. Shoddy manufacturing processes seems a common problem with all the vaccines.

Elections are won by use of effective messages that communicate the differences between your party and the opponent to the voters. In 2022, polls showed that the GOP had the issues, but they failed miserably in the messenging. RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDnaiel was asleep at the switch on this, and Kevin McCarthy made only a feeble effort at it, but Mitch McConnell was downright awful on it, and that showed in the disappointing election results. McConnell did almost nothing to put up distinctions between the GOP and the Democrats, and instead tried to almost blend them together, the exact opposite of what one does if they want to win. The only real messenging McConnell did actually helped the Democrats with his whining we were going to lose due to "candidate quality". That is long time McConnell code for candidates more conservative than he is, ones who actually care about issues instead of just playing the game. Several election cycles ago, McConnell publicly vowed "to crush them [conservatives] everywhere" and this cycle it appears McConnell was more interested in seeing GOP conservatives lose than Democrats lose. McConnell pulled money out of close Senate races and kept $40 million in the bank after the election rather than spending it to help Republicans win. Even after the election, McConnell joined with the Democrats to hamstring the new Republican House majority by eliminating their power of the purse for the first year of their two year term, through his treacherous omnibus deal.

When Venezuela is emptying its prisons and sending the convicts to our border, and the Biden traitors do no vetting and let anyone come in, it is only expected that the border flood will produce crime and it obviously is.

That HB2 repeal was where it became very clear that Phil Berger and Tim Moore were RINOs who play footsie with the Democrats. Since then, it has been a steady stream of leftwing crap. Who they pick for staff positions just underlines how big a RINO each of them is. No genuine Republican would pick this sort of riff raff for their staff. The other Republicans needed to dump this pair of traitors as leaders, but they failed to do it, much like the US Congress keeping their failed leadership.

Mitch McConnell has always been a Democrat collaborator. He did that in the Obama admnistration, too, not just under Biden, and he took favots from the Democrats to do it. During the Obama regime, one particularly awful spending spending bill went through with McConnell's support and when people were finally able to read it, they discovered what was called the "Kentucky kickback", a huge earmark for McConnell's home state. McConnell has been evil as long as he has been in the Senate, especially when it comes to spending.

So liberal Big Bob is back on this site. Most readers did not miss you. The problem is that Democrats only "compromise" is to do it all their way, and their fellow travellers, the RINOs are all-in with that. Lefties do not meet in the middle. It is their way or the highway, and their way involves gouging the taxpayers.

Politics is about compromise. Treating elected commissioners so disrespectfully may not be the best way to get things done. Its OK to disagree on the issues but the election is over. You don't have the votes to get everything you want. My advice, save the attacks for the next election cycle and get to work. Remember, you catch more fly's with honey than with vinegar.

GOA missed one important turncoat, RINO Thom Tillis. If Tillis and a group of Democrats had not derailed Sen Mike Lee's border security amendment, the Squad would have killed this terrible piece of legislation in the House. Tillis is a despicable scoundrel. He saved the Democrats bacon by helping scuttle the Lee amendment so the Democrats in House would not split on it.
GOA is generally the pro-gun group we can depend upon, much better than the weasels at the NRA. These 18 plus 1 ALL need primaries. They have sold us out on mulitple issues.

Good piece written well, and full of all the reasons for real change in what was once the conservative GOP.
To my Conservative constituents, please throw off those "Republicans" that are NOT loyal to our base's governing needs, what is imperative for our Republic's survival. Please vote, but vote only for Real Republicans, not those comfortable with Swamp Creatures like McConnell.

Commented on List of Biden's tax hikes staring Jan. 1The fake "Inflation Reduction Act" will in fact cause the prices of things to go up, thus INCREASING inflation. That is a typical Biden lie. Even the British media are talking about this outrage: www.dailymail.co.uk

Commented on Great ExpectationsI understand that our new conservative trio has been reaching out to some of the other board members in trying to find votes on key policy. I hope they are successful, and we start to see our School Board adopt a pro-parent position instead of being lapdogs of the school bureanracy. I agree that there is a lot to do and voters are anxious to start getting it done. If they can't find two other votes, there are going to be a lot more defeated incumbents in the 2024 cycle.

Commented on List of Biden's tax hikes staring Jan. 1The Biden regime is a threat to our pocketbooks. His tax increases are terrible, and so are his gas increases that we have already seen and will see more of, and his coming electricity price increases from his idiotic wind and solar fiasco.

Commented on Biden Claims His Uncle Won Purple Heart During World War II Battle, But Details Make Biden’s Story ImpossibleI have finally figured out my role in this Federico Fellini dark comedy about the bumbling, idiot leader of a 3rd World "Banana Republic," propped up by a Swamp of needy, dishonest politicians and a corrupt and educatedly ignorant "Free Press," bolstered by the non patriot corporate Left.
My role in this melodramatic farce is that I must chronicle this historic buffoonery, while, like all other patriot Americans sorrowfully sidelined, endure the damage; quietly organize and prepare the political resistance of this non patriot movement of the undeniably ignorant amid the wreckage scattered about, and mounting daily. Finding the realistic path forward straight away from this relentless insanity of the Socialist Left will be every Good Citizens' patriotic duty starting NOW. We are all "poor players" in this nauseating farce, but our obligated roles are obvious.
