House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is being pressured by idiots like Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert to impeach Biden for his son Hunters sleazy foreign dealings and thus decimate the reelection chances of every other Republican in Congress. But MJT and Boebert will have tremendous fun doing it and get lots of press, and after all, isnt that the most important thing?
Meanwhile, the not-stupid but unfocused conservative Freedom Caucus is threatening to shut down the government unless they get concessions, primarily cuts in government spending.
I have a secret for you, GOP: No one cares about government spending. Im sure its important, and there are probably a hundred Wall Street Journal articles explaining why, but not more than 1% of voters will ever reward you for cutting spending.
Government spending is Republicans climate change. Weve gotten frantic warnings that the world will end if we dont cut spending for the last 50 years exactly as long as weve been warned that the world will end if we dont cut carbon emissions. Year after year, we do nothing, and yet the world doesnt come remotely close to ending.
You only have a bare majority in one house of Congress, Republicans: This is no time to be hot-shots for causes that wont get you a single vote.
But you know what would be hugely popular? Put down the Journal and look around you. Theres not a corner of this country that isnt sick to death of migrants (illegal aliens) streaming into their towns and neighborhoods. And this horror show, now playing nationwide, is 100% Bidens fault. 100%.
Even the most cosseted, liberal sanctuary cities have cried uncle, pleading for Biden to cut off the flow of illegals.
In New York (sanctuary city since 1989), migrants (illegal aliens) are crawling over every square inch of the place. You cant walk down Park Avenue or through Central Park without feeling like youve stumbled into a Caracas shantytown. The migrants (illegals) are expected to cost the city $4 billion this year alone, and government estimates are notoriously low.
Mayor Eric Adams has said the migrants (illegals) are going to destroy the city, so for the past year hes been trying to dump them on other parts of the state. Were a sanctuary city! Lets ruin the suburbs instead. In response, more than 30 of New Yorks 62 counties have passed emergency measures refusing to take them.
That includes Erie County (Buffalo) 2-1 registered Democrats where smug executive Mark C. Poloncarz announced in May that it was morally repugnant to turn away migrants (illegal aliens). For the cherry on top, he added, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Within weeks of the migrants (illegals) arriving, theyd already committed two heinous sexual assaults, and Mr. Morally Repugnant refused to take any more.
The last time New York state voted for a Republican president was in 1984. This is New York today, every day:
Protests erupt outside new migrant facility in Queens
NYC migrant crisis: Staten Island demonstrators block bus during protests
NYC migrant shelter tour interrupted by shouting protesters
Hundreds protest migrant relief center located near Nassau County border
Republicans, are you awake?
In Massachusetts, the progressive, lesbian governor has declared a state of emergency over the migrants (illegals), requested an additional quarter-billion dollars from the legislature to deal with them and attacked the White House for a federal crisis of inaction.
Yarmouth, Massachusetts, voted 60-40 for Biden. Today, there are daily protests outside the town hall and heated five-hour meetings to denounce the migrant influx.
When Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent a teeming horde of 50 illegals to progressive paradise Marthas Vineyard, this sanctuary destination called in the National Guard to remove them.
The last time Massachusetts voted for a Republican president was in 1984.
Across Chicago, a city virtually dedicated to giving succor to criminals, residents are up in arms over the migrants (illegal aliens).
Residents protest plan to house 300 migrants at Hyde Park area motel
Edgewater (Chicago) residents protest as city announces plan to shelter migrants at Broadway Armory
Chicago residents protest new migrant shelter in their neighborhood, leading to delay in opening
As South Shore community activist Natasha Dunn put it, Our specific frustration lies in the continuous and blatant disregard for the safety and overall quality of life for black residents, as many of these migrants have been dumped in our neighborhoods.
Just so were clear, the GOP is never, ever going to win the black vote sorry, clueless donors! But black people sure arent going to hate you for impeaching Biden over his refusal to stop inundating the country with millions of poverty-stricken, illiterate illegals, cutting into Americans government services. (How many black people do you think care about government spending? Or whites, Hispanics or Asians for that matter.)
Generally, voters dont like government shutdowns. Theyre also not wild about a president of their own party being impeached.
If youre going to do either one, GOP, for Gods sake, at least do it for a cause thats 80-20 popular.
