The shambolic nature of the House of Representatives in the just-ended 118th Congress has Democrats pinning at least some of their hopes for stopping Republicans in the new Congress on disunity within the House GOP.

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) put it plainly in his weekly press conference at the U.S. Capitol Wednesday in responding to Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) taunt Tuesday that Democrats were struggling with their identity after the 2024 election losses.

“Why are you talking about an identity crisis?” Jeffries said when asked about Johnson’s comment.

“The Republican conference is filled with marauding bands of individuals who can’t stand each other. And Democrats, as far as I can tell, are unified in our determination to make life better for the American people.”

(What a joke!)

Jeffries didn’t specify why he described Republicans that way, but there were many examples in the last Congress.

The most famous was probably Rep. Chip Roy’s (R-Texas) imploring on the House floor for his Republican colleagues to tell him “one thing” he and his fellow party members had done for America.

(What’s Hakeem talking about – the Republican was asking a question – Hakeem was in charge before the election when Pelosi gave him the gavel/halo and did nothing. Why is that – the Democrats were too busy baby-sitting with Biden. They didn’t have to spend a dime because Biden did it for them.)

On significant bills to keep the government open temporarily or provide more military aid to Ukraine, the House GOP conference split sharply and Johnson had to turn to Democrats for help.

Overall, the 118th Congress saw 224 laws passed, the lowest number since at least the 82nd Congress, which met in 1951 and 1952. While that productivity low cannot be blamed entirely on the House, as Democrats controlled the Senate and the White House, it gives some idea of the holding pattern nature of the 118th, as many issues were kicked down the road to see who would win in November.

MSNBC

Democrats nominate Hakeem Jeffries for House speaker.

(Do they get to vote – aren’t they are told who will be the speaker. Is Jeffries a rep of the Constitution and did he take his oath on the Bible or the Koran?)

(There should be a bill passed when a congress person runs for office – they must sign an oath that they will protect the Constitution. The Democrats/Biden did not follow the rules of law/Constitution and should have been kicked out of office. The Democrats have people who are backing Hamas against Israel.)

(Also, when a terrorists attack occurs like New Orleans and the Police have follow-up investigations, the Police must use the same rules for investigation in the Muslim community as they do in any other community. They can’t be giving the Police the finger as they did in this case by telling the community not to answer in questions. That isn’t how it works. This is the U.S.A. not the Middle East.)

House Republicans hold a historically narrow 219-215 edge in the House now, even smaller than the one in the previous Congress. Jeffries mocked how well that will work for the House GOP ahead.

(The GOP did have more; but, President Trump will be using the ones who are missing – but who were elected – in his cabinet positions, which is an honor.)

“It’s going to be interesting to see how Republicans, with their overwhelming majority in the House and the Senate and the overwhelming electoral mandate that they have, can get things done to lower costs for the American people,” he said.

(Whatever gets done will be more than the Democrats have done in eight years and still not waste trillions of dollars as they did.)

(I think Hakeem should worry about the Democrats not the GOP. What has Hakeem/Pelosi done for four years under Biden but raid the treasury and look at the debt. They need a new leader that knows about math.)

“That’s the situation in front of us. I look forward to the proposals that are put forth by my extreme [Make American Great Again] Republican colleagues to actually keep their word.”

(The problem with the Democrats – they worked on nothing but how to tear up the country with a demented President. But that was the original plan by Pelosi/Obama.)

KOMMONSENTSJANE – STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES. Need new leaders in CA – who will look out for the voters.

Why is there a shortage of water?

How does desalination work?

If we can support millions of illegals – we can pay for having more water available – especially for fires.

There are two main ways in which salty water is made fit for human consumption: thermal desalination and reverse osmosis. 

Thermal desalination causes the water to evaporate and condense, leaving salt and other impurities behind, while reverse osmosis uses a filter membrane that only allows water molecules through, thereby separating it from salt and other substances. 

Because reverse osmosis, which was invented in the US in the 1950s, is the more energy efficient of the two approaches, it is more widely used. Around 70 percent of desalinated water is achieved using this process.

Once the water is purified, minerals and chemicals are added to meet the standards required for safe and healthy drinking water. 

Status of Desalination Plants in California | The Lyncean Group of San Diego

Eight operating desalination plants

California currently has eight operating desalination plants and three facilities in the planning or permitting phase3The four major desalination plants in California are the Carlsbad Desalination Plant, Santa Barbara Desalination Plant, Monterey Peninsula Desalination Plant, and the proposed Doheny Ocean Desalination Plant4Recently, a $140 million desalination plant was approved in California to convert up to 5 million gallons of seawater each day into drinking water5

Ocean view properties and not enough water? The governor should be removed from office Fire hydrants did not have any water available?

Something is terribly wrong with this leadership.

Watch: Trump’s Three-Month Old Warning About California Just Came True!

It’s time to add another one to the “Trump was right again” pile! Just three months ago, when President Trump appeared on the Joe Rogan Podcast, he discussed California’s ongoing water and wildfire problems. He even had solutions, but of course, the usual suspects couldn’t handle Trump being right.

During their conversation, Trump pointed out how California’s progressive environmental policies were causing water rationing and barren farmlands, while also preventing the clearing of dead trees in forests. He suggested that the state had more than enough water available, but it was being mismanaged due to these policies.

But instead of listening to Trump’s sound advice, the liberal media and politicians dismissed him once again. They refused to acknowledge the real issue of water dispersal and management, and instead blamed climate change and Trump himself for the wildfires.

Act Fast!

Fast forward three months, and we see the disastrous consequences of their neglect. California is facing the worst fires in a generation, and their fire hydrants are empty. All because the powers that be were more concerned with protecting a tiny fish than managing their resources wisely.

This is not the first time that Trump has been proven right, despite the constant attacks from the liberal establishment. From the economy to foreign policy, and now even on issues like water management and wildfires, Trump’s predictions and solutions have been proven to be accurate and effective.

Watch

It’s time for the liberal media to stop their relentless attacks on Trump and start listening to him. He has a proven track record of being right, and it’s time for them to acknowledge that instead of constantly dismissing and belittling him.

In the midst of these crises, one thing is clear: Americans can stockpile Ivermectin and other key prescription medicines, just as Trump has advised. It’s time to listen to the man who has consistently been ahead of the curve and put his advice into action.

The California wildfires and water crisis are just further proof that Trump knows what he’s talking about. Don’t believe us? Just rewatch his appearance on the Joe Rogan Podcast – it’s all there.

KOMMONSENTSJANE – Documents Suggest Pelosi and Fani Willis Coordinated on Trump Probe.

01/08/2024

The oil is rising to the surface.

ttps://dailypresser.com/doug-g/documents-suggest-pelosi-and-fani-willis-coordinated-on-trump-probe/


Follow America’s fastest-growing news aggregator, Spreely News, and stay informed. You can find all of our articles plus information from your favorite Conservative voices. 


Judicial Watch has unveiled what it claims is evidence of direct coordination between Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s January 6 committee, raising serious questions about the impartiality of investigations targeting former President Donald Trump.

The documents were disclosed following a legal battle where Judicial Watch forced Fulton County to release withheld records. These communications, according to Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, demonstrate a coordinated effort to undermine Trump and his allies.

The controversy emerged after the Superior Court in Fulton County, Georgia, ordered a payment of $21,578 in attorney’s fees to Judicial Watch. The fees stemmed from an open-records lawsuit seeking communications between Fani Willis, Special Counsel Jack Smith, and Pelosi’s January 6 committee.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton discussed the findings on Steve Bannon’s War Room. Bannon didn’t hold back, stating, “You now have evidence about Fani Willis and Nancy Pelosi colluding together on this vast criminal conspiracy against President Trump and other J6ers.”

Fitton detailed how the lawsuit forced the disclosure of documents after Fulton County repeatedly denied their existence. “They didn’t even bother to show up in court and answer a lawsuit,” he noted, adding that the county defaulted on the case. This failure to defend their position led to a court order mandating the release of the records.

Among the documents are communications that Judicial Watch claims demonstrate coordination between Willis’s investigation and Pelosi’s January 6 committee. These alleged connections are particularly significant given Trump’s indictment in Fulton County over his efforts to challenge the 2020 election results.

Fitton argued that the documents expose the political nature of the investigation. “We caught her,” he stated. “She finally had to fess up to having documents … and just last night, the court told her she has to give us $20,000 in attorney’s fees.”

The records reportedly include at least one letter from Fani Willis to Rep. Bennie Thompson, the chairman of the January 6 committee. This letter, Fitton suggests, highlights a collaborative effort to target Trump and his allies.

While Judicial Watch has achieved a significant victory in uncovering these records, Fitton emphasized that the fight for transparency isn’t over. “We’re still fighting for the full release of the records,” he said. He also accused Fulton County of deliberately obstructing the process by initially denying the existence of the documents.

The court-ordered payment of attorney’s fees underscores the gravity of the case. According to Fitton, “If you don’t show up in court and you’re a government agency, that’s kind of a big deal.”

The revelations have ignited a firestorm of criticism, particularly among conservatives, who view the findings as further evidence of political weaponization. Many argue that the alleged coordination between Willis and Pelosi undermines the legitimacy of the Fulton County investigation.

Critics contend that the investigations into Trump have been driven more by political motives than a genuine pursuit of justice. Fitton echoed these sentiments, calling the coordination “a political collusion targeting Trump and his supporters.”

The latest disclosures add to growing skepticism about the impartiality of government institutions. Conservatives have long accused the January 6 committee of operating as a partisan body, and these findings could bolster claims of bias in the Trump investigations.

The timing of Trump’s Fulton County indictment, coupled with the alleged involvement of figures like Pelosi, has fueled speculation that the investigations are part of a broader effort to derail his political career.

Judicial Watch’s findings are likely to intensify calls for accountability and transparency in government investigations. The organization continues to push for the full release of records, arguing that the public has a right to know the extent of the alleged coordination.

For now, the revelations serve as a rallying cry for Trump’s supporters, who view these investigations as politically motivated attacks. The court-ordered payment to Judicial Watch also signals a significant setback for Fulton County, potentially casting doubt on the credibility of Willis’s probe.

As the legal battles unfold, the broader implications of these findings remain to be seen. However, one thing is clear: the fight over transparency, fairness, and the rule of law is far from over.

This development will undoubtedly continue to be a focal point in the ongoing debates surrounding Trump’s legal challenges and the integrity of government institutions. Whether this leads to broader accountability or further polarization remains uncertain, but the stakes couldn’t be higher.

KOMMONSENTSJANE – If Biden Was Okay – Why Did They Hide Him in the Basement in 2020? They were exposed in 2024.

01/08/2024

Did Pelosi/Obama start this scam with the 2020 election? Hume was right then and now.

Why won’t they show the Hur tapes of Biden’s interview. We heard him in the debate with Trump.

Geriatrics experts say Brit Hume’s claim that Joe Biden is ‘senile’ is wrong

  • Senility is not a precise medical term, but is often used in place of the more precise and accepted medical term of “dementia.” 
  • Experts said Biden does not exhibit signs of dementia. Dementia is defined as cognitive decline that is severe enough to cause someone to lose the ability to function independently in daily life.

See the sources for this fact-check

A persistent Republican line of attack against Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is the allegation that he is not mentally fit to lead the nation. President Donald Trump amplifies that claim at his rallies and so do pundits on Fox News.

On the night of the Sept. 29 presidential debate in Cleveland, Fox News’ senior political analyst Brit Hume said on TV that despite Trump’s claims about Biden’s health, Biden might do okay at the debate, since Biden “did just fine” when he debated Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., during the Democratic primary. Hume then called Biden “senile.”

“Elderly people experiencing memory loss and other problems associated with age can go for periods, for hours at a time and be just fine,” Hume said before the debate. “I don’t think there’s  any doubt Biden’s senile, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to show up tonight. … And now that the expectations for him have been set so low, you know if he comes out and doesn’t drool and gets through everything pretty well it could end up being quite a boost for him.”

Hume, who is the same age as Biden, 77, for more than a year has argued that Biden is losing his memory and is “getting senile.” Hume has said he has “traces of this myself, I know what it feels like.” In an August 2019 tweet, Hume said the word senile “is a colloquial term” and that “it is perfectly reasonable to suggest an old man with obvious memory issues is showing signs of senility. Look the word up.”

Broadly, the word senile is defined as pertaining to old age. But often it is used by some people in association with memory loss problems or diseases that are not a normal part of aging.

https://joinsubtext.com/politifact?form=true

PolitiFact contacted experts in the health care of older people for their take on Hume’s use of the word senile and its application to Biden. They said Hume’s characterization is wrong.

It’s “a shameful display of ageism and ignorance,” said Donald Jurivich, Eva Gilbertson Distinguished Professor of Geriatrics and Chairman of Geriatrics at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine & Health Sciences.

The word “senile” may create a mental picture of someone who has stooped posture, is slow moving and cognitively impaired, Jurivich said. “I don’t think any of these descriptors match Joe Biden’s demeanor and vigor,” he said.

From a geriatrician’s perspective, Jurivich said, “the use of ‘senile’ is a pejorative descriptor and reflects unmitigated ageism.”

In December 2019, Biden’s primary care physician, at Biden’s request, issued a summary of his medical and surgical history. “Vice president Biden is a healthy, vigorous, 77-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency, to include those as chief executive, head of state and commander in chief,” wrote Kevin C. O’Connor, Biden’s doctor since 2009 and director of executive medicine at The GW Medical Faculty Associates.

Senility is not a precise medical term, but is often used in place of the more precise and accepted medical term of “dementia,” said Kenneth Langa, Cyrus Sturgis Professor of Medicine at the University of Michigan Medical School. 

Jurivich also said that decades ago, “doctors lacking knowledge at the time may have used the term ‘senile dementia’ as (a) component of aging, which we now know to be untrue.”

There is a range of cognitive decline or changes that can happen as someone ages, and nearly everyone has some slowing of brain function with aging, Langa noted. Increasing difficulty in finding words or remembering names is also nearly universal, he said.

Dementia is defined as cognitive decline that is severe enough to cause someone to lose the ability to function independently in daily life, Langa said. “Joe Biden clearly does not have dementia,” he said.

“It is possible that Biden may have more difficulties finding some words and speaking smoothly than when he was younger,” Langa said. But that does not mean he is “senile” or even that he has “mild cognitive impairment,” he said.

Jurivich said he has seen Biden in person and watched him during the debates with Trump and with Democratic primary candidates. He said he’s noticed that periodically Biden “pauses and has a perplexed look on his face as he collects himself to compensate for his stutter.”

“It is said that up to 80% of communication is through non-verbal cues, and I feel that people misinterpret Joe Biden’s facial expressions as something other than his adaptations to a childhood speech impediment,” Jurivich said.

While it might be possible to get some sense as to whether someone has severe cognitive impairment by watching them on TV, a more precise diagnosis would require some kind of standardized testing to get a better sense of how well the person’s brain is working and a sense of the severity of their impairment, Langa said.

We reached out to Fox News asking whether Hume’s claims were based on any specific doctor review of Biden and for information Hume would like to provide to support his case. We did not hear back.

When Hume made the claim, he was speaking to Fox host Tucker Carlson, who called it “a very smart point” ahead of the debate.

Carlson had a different take the next night.

“As a political matter, the main thing we learned last night is that it was a mistake to spend so much time focusing on Joe Biden’s mental decline,” Carlson said, adding that “yes, it’s real” and that Biden is “fading.”

He added: “But on stage last night, Biden did not seem senile. If you tuned in expecting him to forget his own name — and honestly, we did expect that — you may have been surprised by how precise some of his answers were.”

Our ruling

Hume said there isn’t “any doubt Biden’s senile.”

Actually, there’s quite a lot of doubt. Geriatrics experts said they do not observe Biden to be “senile” — a word that may imply someone is slow moving and cognitively impaired.

The word “senile,” which one expert said was a pejorative, is also often used by some people to mean dementia. A person with dementia has difficulties independently carrying out daily life functions. The experts we spoke to said Biden does not exhibit this problem.

We rate Hume’s claim False.

It was what it was then – and now it is what that was then – and is now. Hiding his condition is no longer appropriate. Did the doctors hide this for the Democrats? Look at what he has done to this country and the taxpayer’s money he has wasted.

Sure makes those people look dishonest.
