Kick The Bum Out!

All eyes are on Kentucky as Thomas Massie faces a primary challenge today in the northern 4th Congressional district. Over the weekend, President Donald Trump  retweeted his disgust for Massie, calling him “the worst and most unreliable Congressman in the history of our nation.”

Trump’s call for action comes after Louisiana voters handily defeated two-term U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy, who had voted in favor of Trump’s impeachment, along with the Democratic extremists. The arrogant and unreptentant Cassidy didn’t even come in a close second — he could barely claim a distant third place showing! In recent weeks, Indiana also weighed in, knocking out nearly all of the state legislators who had voted against redistricting Indiana’s congressional seats as Trump has requested.

One by one, state by state, Trump supporters are making it clear. If you are a RINO, and especially a loud-mouthed RINO who casts shade on Trump, you better have another job lined up. Because Republicans by wide margins will no longer re-elect you to office. Like Mitt Romney, you’re destined to become little more than a forgettable, historical relic. Here’s more from Steve Turley.

Latest polls show Massie trailing Trump-favored candidate Ed Gallrein by 5 or 6 points. Polls close at 6 p,m, so we should know the results fairly early, unless it’s a nailbiter.

Money Massie Milking The Cows

U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky claims he’s a libertarian.

In fact, he’s just another libertine sleazebag who stabs loyal Republicans — and our President — in the back.

Send this yokel home to yodel with his cash cows. Here’s more from DFF.

Paul Vs. Fauci

Sen Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, has publicly feuded with Dr. Anthony Fauci over his handling of the pandemic. Fauci lied to Congress, denying the role his federal agency played in funding the Covid-19 research at the Wuhan lab in Communist China.

Will Fauci be punished? He is most certainly no better than a common criminal. But we’ll see if our Congress has the will to enforce law or not.

Regardless of whether he serves time, it’s safe to say: What a miserable excuse for the medical profession. Owing to this man’s arrogance, they have lost much of their status among everyday citizens. Here’s more from John Stossel.

Fern Lays Down Ice, Snow

Winter Storm Fern swept across much of the nation Saturday but weather watchers say we haven’t seen the worst of the storm yet. That’s because roads had become icy Saturday, causing an increase in traffic accidents, but the ice hadn’t reached the point where it was causing trees and power lines to snap.

That’s much more likely to happen in the early hours Sunday, and continuing to spread through the day. We’ll see the damage from these widespread outages as the weekend winds down, particularly in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and the Piedmont region of North Carolina.

We’ll also see the heaviest snowfall on Sunday. A band along the Ohio River, from Louisville through the Cincinnati area, is expected to pick up about a foot of snow. Heavier totals will fall from Pennsylvania into New York and points farther east.  The Mid Atlantic and New England states could see 12 to 18 inches of snow.

So far, air traffic has been more impacted than ground travel. Some 16,000 flights have been canceled over the next three days. Here’s more from meteorologist Max Velocity.

Widespread Winter Warnings

Even more of the United States is now coming under extreme winter weather warnings. The warnings stretch more than 2000 miles, from Santa Fe in the Rockies all the way east and north to Boston along the Atlantic coastal shores.

Heaviest snowfall totals are projected for the Mid Atlantic states as well as the Midwest states lining the Ohio River — Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois onto Missouri.  Heavy snow will fall between I-40 and I-70, with the Midwest states likely receiving at least a foot of snow. Snowfall totals will increase as the storm — dubbed Winter Storm Fern — approaches the Atlantic Ocean, entering Pennsylvania, New York and New England. The snow could pile up as much as two feet in some locales.

The South won’t get whacked by snow, but faces potentially deadly ice storms that could bring down grown trees and powerlines, while sending citizens shivering in homes reeling without energy. The ice will stretch eastward from Texas and Oklahoma, encompassing much of Arkansas, Tennessee and Georgia, including the city of Atlanta. Snow already began falling Friday night in the Texas Panhandle, with expectations for ice to slam into Dallas and Tulsa.

Brutal cold weather will aggravate conditions as winds from Canada push chilling temperatures southward. The storm will linger through Sunday, although cold weather will remain entrenched over much of this vast region on Monday and Tuesday. So travel isn’t advised. Best to hunker down at home, and be sure to have supplies of food, water, batteries and life-saving gear.

Here’s a short,  but comprehensive report from CBS News.  Best to check your local stations for up-to-the-minute news and forecasts for your vicinity.

When It Snows in Texas. Here’s an iconic look at a Panhandle panic from the cartoon King of the Hill. The town of Arlen doesn’t exist, but it’s based on King of the Hill creator Mike Judge’s memories of growing up in Texas, and specifically, the suburbs around Dallas and Ft. Worth.

Winter Storm Takes Bad Turn

The winter storm brewing for this weekend could be the worst weather event we’ve seen across the United States in more than a decade. Ryan Hall says the storm will bring dangerous ice to the South and blanket much of the Midwest and Northeast with a heavy coat of snow this weekend. As many as 30 states are likely to be affected.

Evidence of the storm will be visible first across Texas and Oklahoma, beginning Friday but gaining in intensity overnight through Saturday. Ice storms will wreak those states as well as Arkansas. North of that, there will be intense snowfalls, from Missouri east to New York and Connecticut.

Arctic air will follow with life-threatening wind chills throughout the continental United States. Here’s more from Ryan Hall, Y’all.

Bridge Protest Turns Rowdy

The left might be used to throwing its weight around in Los Angeles or New York. But the same lawlessness doesn’t apply in the American Heartland.

Leftists learned their lessons the hard way after they blocked traffic from using the Roebling Suspension Bridge — the main thoroughfare that connects Cincinnati, Ohio, with Covington, Kentucky, over the Ohio River. About 100 leftists marched onto the bridge from Cincinnati, stopping traffic and protesting against ICE because the agents had arrested an illegal immigrant from Egypt.

Covington Police wasted no time in hauling off more than a dozen protesters as well as a couple of attached journalists. The police had good reason to be strict. A cop lost his life falling from the bridge a couple of years ago –from nearly the same spot as the leftist protesters had set up their blockade. Here’s more from the Liberal Hivemind.

Clowns And Losers

Kentucky’s les-than-honorable Congressional delegation — including Sens. Mitch McConnell and Paul Rand as well as U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie — keep undermining President Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans at every turn. At least, McConnell did relent and vote in favor of The Big, Beautiful Bill.

But Rand Paul sure didn’t, and Massie remains a constant thorn in Trump’s side. Here’s more from the Dilley Meme Team.

In the meantime, also check out the next video in which Professor Nez outlines precisely why Trump wants Massie ousted.

Senate Passes Big, Beautiful Bill

The U.S. Senate, by a 51-49 vote late Saturday night, approved President Donald Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill.  There’s still some haggling to occur as the Senate and House bills are slightly different.

This should ensure that Trump’s massive proposed tax cuts and spending cuts get enacted, including the provision to eliminate taxes on tips. However, it’s not clear if the negotiations will finish in time for the bill to be signed into law on the Fourth of July, as Trump and the Republicans have been promising.

The vote stayed open for nearly three hours Saturday as Vice President J.D. Vance wrangled with dissenting and hold-out Republicans to get a majority vote.  That included Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Thom Tillis of North Carolina. Here’s more from Steve Turley on the significance of the process and how Trump disarmed the RINOs.
