Restoring the Constitutional Order
“In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.”...Justice Clarence Thomas

It seems that the only thing the radical left doesn't control these days is the Supreme Court. I guess we have two men to thank for that. One is the Senate Minority leader, who never fell for the nonsense that fairly act as a Supreme Court Justice or defend the Constitution. The other was a former President who demanded loyalty to the Constitution. It was kind of ironic since the Court was the first foothold the radical left gained in government. Thus, this past week we witnessed more than a half century of judicial activism wiped out. That of course included the eternally controversial Roe decision.

Abortion has now been returned to the states and the people.
Regulation has now been returned to the US Congress and the people.
Immigration policy has been returned to the presidency.

 For the first time in memory, the Court has completed a term in which it actually did its job.


It didn't come without cost. The Justices were threatened & harassed. For the first time the Court was verbally attacked by a sitting president from abroad. I suppose in another time, the president would have been censured by the Congress. Also of note yesterday was the retirement of one liberal activist judge and the swearing in of a radical activist judge. There still remains a conspicuous silence concerning the so called "investigation" of who leaked the Roe decision.


The Week:

Jan 6th Committee self destructs: In the rush to destroy Donald Trump the Committee ran a surprise witness this past week. She was obviously put in front of the tv cameras based solely on her unvetted damning testimony. That testimony has been contested by two agents charged with protecting the President and a White House attorney who says "hey wait, I wrote those notes that she claims are hers! Obviously the Committee is not going to let those three testify and thus the committee is a sham.

S & P is at it's worst stage in decades: " The S&P 500 posted its worst first half of the year since 1970, hurt by worries about surging inflation and Federal Reserve rate hikes, as well as Russia’s ongoing war on Ukraine and Covid-19 lockdowns in China."

Horrific tragedy on Biden's open border: "In all,  53 people died  in what one Homeland Security Investigations' agent called the deadliest human smuggling incident in US history. Some victims could be younger than 18."

Senate expected to ratify NATO expansion: Two new countries are about to be added to NATO. Our idiot-in-Chief thought Switzerland was one of them. He was in Madrid yesterday attacking the US Supreme Court while trying to follow instructions on the idiot card written for him by his radical handlers.

Woman shot on Upper East Side: "At approximately 8:23 p.m. Wednesday, officers responded to a report of a person shot opposite of 164 E. 95th St. Upon arrival, officers discovered a 20-year-old female who was unconscious with a  gunshot wound to her head.  EMS responded to the scene and transported the victim to Metropolitan Hospital, where she was pronounced deceased at 9:20 p.m., Sewell said at the most recent press conference. Preliminary investigation revealed the woman was pushing an approximately three-month-old infant in a baby stroller when an unknown person approached her and fired a single shot into her head from a very close range, Sewell said. Immediately after the shooting, the suspect fled the scene on foot, heading Eastbound on E. 95th St.

What have we learned?

All things are not equal. In this case it isn't about left vs right...It's about the radical left vs the rest of the country. We are witnessing the usual violence and harassment that comes from the left when they don't get their way. Unfortunately, we no longer have a fair system of justice any more.

This week a point had been made. The truth finally saw the light of day in a certain precinct. The sad part is that late yesterday, we were told that some people must do things a certain way while others could go on doing it anyway they pleased.

"Apparently, the committee didn't bother to reach out to the Secret Service before it aired the crud about Trump lunging at security. So I guess they're doing that now, which means new witnesses become responsible for repairing other witnesses's hearsay. But maybe they'll find out that Trump didn't just lunge at the Secret Service, he did a double backflip off the trunk of the car and landed squarely in the lap of Abe Lincoln. Who knew Trump can drive an SUV from the backseat? You won't see that in a Bond movie."...Greg Gutfeld

Please clarify.

What evidence do you have that this Committe has refused to allow witnesses to testify under oath? 

As for 'past performances', Ornato is well known for denying that he had conversations. Keith Kellogg and Alyssa Farah can attest to that fact. 

I invite you to post a link to Ornato's letter to the Committee requesting to testify. All I have seen is him flapping his gums to Fox et. al. Until Ornato is under oath, his comments are just so much blather.

They shouldn't have to request a chance to testify.

If your committee had any integrity they would vet witnesses and demand contradictory testimony.

The question really is why hasn't the committee done those things?

Perhaps if Pelosi has allowed for normal protocol, Hutchinson would have been deposed or at the very least cross examined.

Ornato was ordered to sit for a deposition by the SS. The SS now claims that he will be 'made available' to testify under oath. 

The Committee Chair has stated at the beginning of the hearings that if anyone has information of any kind, they should contact the Committee. 

You and I both know that your claim is ridiculous. 

If your committee had any integrity they would vet witnesses and demand contradictory testimony.

Hutchinson was deposed during 4 sittings for over 20 HOURS.

Tell me when Ornato undergoes that much 'vetting'. 

NO Congressional Committee has EVER demanded 'contradictory testimony' Vic. 

You and yours keep trying to pretend that this is a trial. It isn't. 

Oh and BTFW Vic, it isn't MY Committee. Just stop. 

Perhaps if Pelosi has allowed for normal protocol, Hutchinson would have been deposed or at the very least cross examined.

It has been established that it was McCarthy that walked away from 'normal protocol'. Even Trump is pissed at McCarthy for fucking it up. 

AGAIN, Hutchinson WAS deposed for over 20 HOURS. 

There is NO 'cross examination' in a Congressional hearing Vic. NONE. So please, stop with the gaslighting.

Here's a RW source for you:

Meadows told top aide Cassidy Hutchinson January 6 could be 'read, real bad' just days before riot (dailymail.co.uk)

That needed to be done at the same time.

Staring the 'best and the brightest' from the Republican party.

No. I have no reason to believe that.

No Vic, it is a statement of FACT, which I have repeated more than once and which you have failed to refute every time.

See the link above Vic. 

Oh and BTFW, in the same time it took you to post this, you could have pursued that information for yourself.  

What went on with the Benghazi hearings?  Or the Kavanaugh Hearings?

NOT 'cross examination'. 

Cross examination: the formal interrogation of a witness called by the other party in a court of law to challenge or extend testimony already given :

Do you SEE the restriction there Vic or do you need me to explain it to you with crayons? 

During a Congressional hearing, members are allowed to ask any fucking stupid question they want. Anyone who has seen Jordon or Gaetz or Paul or Gohmert during a hearing knows that.

NOT 'cross examination'. 

No?  One side didn't ask tough questions, while the offered her cover. That sounds a lot like prosecution and defense to the rest of us. So, your view is that everything should be strictly partisan with far left democrats in total control of committees & investigations?


Do you SEE the restriction there Vic or do you need me to explain it to you with crayons? 

What I see there is the TECHNICAL LEGAL TERM that you intend to hide behind. Committees are supposed to be represented by both sides of the aisle, selected by both parties with witnesses questioned just as they would in a courtroom as normally happens in these hearings. Do you need me to draw you a picture with crayons?

Exactly how does fabricating a baseless demand connote integrity Vic? 

Lol, of course you don't

You seem to have an ongoing issue with believing truthful answers. Is that one of the lessons you want to teach? 

Repeating it doesn't make it so.

I note that you truncated my comment. Didn't like the fact that I stated that you have failed, over and over again to refute the facts? You had ANOTHER chance to refute it, you FAILED again. Just because YOU deny something over and over again, doesn't mean that it isn't a fact Vic. 

Your link only repeats what Hutchinson claims she heard. What about the deposition?

Actually, my link states more than once that Hutchinson was deposed for 20 HOURS. Why lie about the content when any member can review it for themselves? 

That's not the way it works here. You make a claim and you have to provide the link.

Well gee Vic, I'm just following your 'teachings' of ignoring that obligation.

Oh, and BTFW, I DID provide you with a link and as everyone can see, your comment lies about its content. 

No? 

NO. 

One side didn't ask tough questions, while the offered her cover. That sounds a lot like prosecution and defense to the rest of us.

Then the 'rest of' you are ignorant of the process of Congressional hearings. 

So, your view is that everything should be strictly partisan with far left democrats in total control of committees & investigations?

Strawman. Unworthy. 

What I see there is the TECHNICAL LEGAL TERM that you intend to hide behind.

YOU set the standard by injecting that 'TECHNICAL LEGAL TERM' Vic. 

Committees are supposed to be represented by both sides of the aisle, selected by both parties with witnesses questioned just as they would in a courtroom as normally happens in these hearings. 

You just keep on making up shit Vic.

There is NO rule, process or procedural requirement for questioning witnesses 'just as they would in a courtroom'. NO witness testimony in a Congressional hearing has EVER been conducted like a courtroom. NOT ONE. 

Tell you what, you insist "You make a claim and you have to provide the link." So, provide a link that shows a witness being 'cross examined' per the TECHNICAL LEGAL TERM, during the Benghazi or Kavanagh hearings Vic. I'll wait. 

Do you need me to draw you a picture with crayons?

No, your words illustrate your fictional posit just fine Vic. 

Everything is stupid that you don't like.

I am sure in your infinite wisdom you can point out all of the times the conservative justices lied to Congress? These are highly educated legal professionals who know the law very well; and were all very careful with their answers (the same way the Democrat justices were with their answers to Congress). Just because Democrats are not smart enough to know what they were told- doesn't mean they were lied to.

Republican senator that he believed the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision was “settled law” — a comment that Democrats and abortion rights advocates derided as a meaningless dodge.

Emerging from a more than two-hour “courtesy visit” with Judge Kavanaugh, President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Senator Susan Collins of Maine said they had discussed abortion cases “at length,” and that he told her he agreed with Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., who told senators during his 2005 confirmation hearings that he regarded Roe as “settled law.” Ms. Collins later said she was heartened by the statement.

Ms. Collins and Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska are two Republican backers of abortion rights, and both say they are undecided on Judge Kavanaugh. Their votes are critical to his confirmation. The term “settled law” refers to a precedent that is entitled to respect, and does not necessarily indicate that precedent cannot be limited or overturned.

Ms. Collins’s statement on the matter may say less about Judge Kavanaugh’s views on abortion than her ultimate vote, which appears to be leaning toward “yes.” She had already called him a “clearly” qualified nominee. The judge’s confirmation hearings are set to begin on Sept. 4, with a confirmation vote possible before the end of next month.

Democrats immediately pounced on the “settled law” construction, saying it is a standard phrase employed to duck the real question: whether Roe was correctly decided.

Maybe Democrats and a couple of moderate Republican Senators should get smarter where it concerns the law; and statements about it.

Let's use our Democratic non-majority in the Senate to acquit Kavanaugh and Barrrett in their impeachment trial. And so we don't alienate swing voters, maybe we should sit on the trial until they are no longer active justices like we did with Trump.

Wake me up when AOC says something that is actually actionable. Until then, I will make a point of ignoring her tips on how getting a manicure is a small act of resistance.

I have very politely asked her to define the term that she frequently throws out  being "alleged conservatives" on at least three separate occasions and she has ignored and refused to answer my question every time, therefore leading me to conclude she invented the term but has no idea how to use it or what it may mean.

In the rush to destroy Donald Trump the Committee ran a surprise witness this past week. She was obviously put in front of the tv cameras based solely on her unvetted damning testimony.

This isn't the first time the "bombshell" / "smoking gun" / "final nail" has blown up in the Democrats faces.  The TDS Committee isn't any different.  The witness they coached only gave hearsay "evidence" only to have it rebuked by the driver.  

Honorable Mention:

Justice Clarence Thomas

Trump's Security Detail Was 'Aligned' With Him And 'Personally Cheering For Biden To Fail,' Says Author Of Book On The Secret Service

Trump's security detail was 'aligned' with him and 'personally cheering for Biden to fail,' says author of book on the Secret Service
Matthew Loh
Thu, June 30, 2022 at 4:44 AM
A "very large contingent" of former President Donald Trump's security detail had used their social media accounts to "cheer on the insurrection" on January 6, said author Carol Leonnig.  Ron Jenkins/Getty Images
  • Two Secret Service agents were close to Trump and seen as his enablers, said      Carol Leonnig   .

  • The agents plan to dispute part of Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony regarding Trump, said Leonnig.

  • Many in Trump's detail cheered the Capitol riot, said Leonnig, whose book covers the Secret Service.

Two top members of former President Donald Trump's personal security detail were "very, very close" to Trump and are "viewed as being aligned" with him, said Carol Leonnig, a long-time investigative reporter at The Washington Post.

Leonnig is the author of the book "Zero Fail: The Rise and Fall of the Secret Service" and co-author of "I Alone Can Fix It," which delves into Trump's final year as president.

Leonnig told   MSNBC's Rachel Maddow on Wednesday evening    that many Secret Service agents in Trump's detail were also rooting for President Joe Biden's failure, and used their social media accounts to "cheer on the insurrection" at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

"There was a very large contingent of Donald Trump's detail, who were personally cheering for Biden to fail, and some of them even took to their personal media accounts to cheer on the insurrection and the individuals riding up to the Capitol as patriots," Leonnig said. "That is problematic."

"I'm not saying that Tony Ornato or Bobby Engel did that, but they are viewed as being aligned with Donald Trump, which cuts against them," she added.

"However, if they testify under oath: 'This is what happened,' I think that's going to be important because Cassidy Hutchinson can only say what she heard happened," Leonning continued.

There is a process for seeking asylum.  Crossing the border at points other than authorized locations or in a 53 foot semi trailer is not in that process.  That is what makes them ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.  They are not asylum seekers, they have no rights under US law.

Wrong again.  They are seeking asylum (whether or not they deserve it is another issue) and some are unaccompanied minors.  If they don't show for their court date, then a warrant is issued just like a criminal case when the defendant doesn't show.  The border is not open and the fact that those poor people had to be smuggled over the border proves it.  If the border was wide open (as in the conservative talking point), then they would have walked over the fucking border.

Yes, there is a process for seeking asylum and the fact that these people did not seek asylum and were smuggled in a trailer proves that the border is not wide open otherwise they would have walked across the wide open border and would be alive today (and would be considered illegal immigrants and not asylum seekers).

Again, seeking asylum is not illegal, and illegal immigrants are not being disbursed all over the country.  Asylum seekers and unaccompanied minors are.  Illegal immigrants don't need to be disbursed all over the country because they disburse themselves all over the country once they sneak in over the boarder while hoping and praying they don't get caught because they are illegal and not asylum seekers.  There is a difference, but you have been trained to say they are all illegal.

They are definitely not all seeking asylum.

That's utterly idiotic.  Have you ever even been to Texas?  It's over 150 miles from Laredo (on the border) to San Antonio?  I guarantee you're not walking that if a ride is available.  In 105 degree heat?  With kids?   Just stop.

It's a very valid point that border enforcement is poor, and has been for decades.

The valid counterpoint is that the only reason 99% of illegal immigrants don't come across legally is that we have a batshit antiquated system we haven't updated in 30 years that doesn't allow them to come legally.

That's utterly idiotic.  Have you ever even been to Texas?  It's over 150 miles from Laredo (on the border) to San Antonio?  I guarantee you're not walking that if a ride is available.  In 105 degree heat?  With kids?   Just stop.

There is nothing idiotic about it.  If the border was open, there would be no need to ride in closed in trailer with no air conditioning where the heat inside will soar well above 105.

Remain in Mexico has to do with waiting for your day in court if I am not mistaken. And I'm not...............

The Remain in Mexico policy requires certain asylum seekers arriving by land at the U.S./Mexico border (both at and between official ports of entry (POEs)) who pass a credible fear screening with a U.S. asylum officer (a first step in the process for requesting asylum) to return to Mexico to await their asylum hearing in U.S. immigration court.

Illegal immigrants don't need to be disbursed all over the country because they disburse themselves all over the country once they sneak in over the boarder while hoping and praying they don't get caught because they are illegal and not asylum seekers. 

And yet they are being disbursed all over the country.

I live 6 blocks from the AZ/Mexico border fence in SE Cochise County, AZ. The border is in fact wide open these days. I have illegals running the alleys behind my house every night seven nights a week 365 days a year. My late wife used to tell me the Southern border in AZ and NM has more holes in it than her favorite pasta strainer and she was right. The Biden administration has the CBP working with one arm tied behind their backs, sometimes both arms! The vacancy sign at the border continues to be brightly lit for all coming across the border into the US. On this Joe can truly say "I did that!".

Living in a small rural border town with a CBP crossing point with a very large Border Patrol facility and a large number of agents living in the community that are my neighbors as well. Said agents are disgusted that illegals that are caught are rounded up, then bussed to the CBP sector headquarters in Tucson 2 hours away for processing and trans-shipment to points North, East, and West wherever they want to go. one has to love the waste of taxpayer dollars spent to molly coddle illegals and increase the potential voter base of leftist liberal Democrat politicians in DC.

The man is retired U.S. Navy Captain (0-6) who flew the Grumman A-6E Intruder attack jet in combat in the 1st Gulf War. I am retired U.S. Navy myself and greatly respect his Naval and NASA accomplishments, but that is as far as my respect for the man goes. I detest his politics and would not trust him to walk my dog!

DHS chief reveals startling stat on asylum seekers who skip hearings, disappear

The acting Homeland Security secretary  gave lawmakers a glimpse Tuesday into just how many asylum seekers skip their hearings after being released into the United States -- telling a Senate panel that a recent program found 90 percent miss their court dates.

The acting Homeland Security secretary said on Tuesday that 90 percent of asylum seekers are missing their court dates after being released into the US.

At the order of President Biden, not only has Customs and Border Protection (CBP) been releasing illegal migrants into the United States due to the   catch and release policy , but now, Border Patrol in the   Rio Grande Valley Sector   (RGV) is releasing asylum seekers without court dates.

The ending of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) once again opened the door to fraudulent claims and abuse of the asylum system. Now, this new move is certain to make the situation significantly worse.

Usually, illegal aliens who claim asylum are issued a Notice to Appear (NTA) before being released from custody. However, border agents have been directed to use prosecutorial discretion to forgo the process of issuing an NTA due to the massive surge of migrants at our border. Instead, biometrical data is collected and then the migrants are released into the interior of the United States.

The controversial move by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and CBP places the responsibility of seeking out a court hearing on the migrant, who must then contact Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or obtain legal assistance to schedule a court date. It should be clear that this is a horrible idea. What illegal migrant who has just been released into the United States without a rock-solid case to remain here would willingly seek out proceedings which could get them expelled from the country?

Acting Secretary Kevin McAleenan told the Senate Judiciary Committee that a new pilot program resulted in thousands of families ditching their scheduled hearings, according to Fox News.

“We see too many cases where people are not showing up,” McAleenan said, referring to the program.

Out of those 7,000 cases , 90 received final orders of removal in absentia, 90 percent.”

In her dissenting opinion as SCOTUS blocks the EPA  from claiming an enormously consequential powers, Justice Kaga wrote, “The majority today overrides that legislative choice... In so doing, it deprives EPA of the power needed and the power granted to curb the emission of greenhouse gases.”  

She forgets that Congress cannot delegate its legislative powers to other entities. In A.L.A. Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States, 295 U.S. 495 (1935), the Supreme Court held that "Congress is not permitted to abdicate or to transfer to others the essential legislative functions with which it is thus vested."

“On EPA’s view of Section 111(d), Congress implicitly tasked it, and it alone, with balancing the many vital considerations of national policy implicated in the basic regulation of how Americans get their energy,” Roberts wrote. “There is little reason to think Congress did so.” In instances like this, he said, “[a] decision of such magnitude and consequence rests with Congress itself, or an agency acting pursuant to a clear delegation from that representative body.”

I'm sorry that Justice Roberts didn't write more clearly for you.  Maybe Gorsuch can help you:

"When Congress seems slow to solve problems, it may be only natural that those in the Executive Branch might seek to take matters into their own hands.  But the Constitution does not authorize agencies to use pen-and-phone regulations as substitutes for laws passed by the people’s representatives. In our Republic, “[i]t is the peculiar province of the legislature to prescribe general rules for the government of society.” Fletcher v. Peck, 6 Cranch 87, 136 (1810).

"Former President Donald Trump, denying the House Jan. 6 Committee hearing claims of Cassidy Hutchinson, is now calling out the Justice Department to investigate her for "lying under oath."

"Social climber Hutchinson lied about my attack on our great Secret Service, lied about her writing the White House note, lied about my throwing food at a wall in the Oval Office, & lied about my wanting to be surrounded by 'people with guns' during my 'Go Peacefully and Patriotically' speech (how crazy is that?), yet no guns were found in the Capitol," Trump  wrote Thursday night on Truth Social.

"These lies, among others, were made under oath. What is the Justice Department going to do about this? Do we have a two tiered system of justice?"

The sad thing for Democrats with the abortion issue is that it probably isn't going to flip many places. All these states that are banning abortion are deeply red and doing what their people want them to do.

Another sad thing is that the GOP doesn't have any good ideas about inflation. They will run against it but they won't fix it.

Among the harassment and threats, a petition has been put out there for the removal Justice Thomas because the way he voted to overturn Roe v. Wade .  The racism of the left come out in full force on this issue with celebrities and many others referring to Justice Thomas as "Token Thomas", "Uncle Thomas", etc.   And the fact that none of the other Justices who voted with Justice Thomas aren't mentioned.

For the first time the Court was verbally attacked by a sitting president from abroad. I suppose in another time, the president would have been censured by the Congress.

Given the POTUS is supported by the Democrats he won't be censured.  It is pathetic that the President's criticism of the SCOTUS would do this while out of the country.  

Horrific tragedy on Biden's open border

It's amazing how many people on the left refuse to accept that the problems at the border are Biden's responsibility.  There is no blaming any previous administration when there is an EO signed on January 20, 2021 stopping activity to secure the border.
