Mike Johnson's Election To House Speaker Position Already Bearing Fruit For GOP

 As predicted, the election of Rep. Mike Johnson to the House Speaker position has sent Democrats and their media allies into fits of howling outrage, with the attacks on his Christian faith commencing apace and mudslingers digging deep in the Wayback machine to find a Confederate soldier family connection.

The attacks from the Usual Suspects on both Johnson and his family don't seem to have done much if any damage to him among the Republican faithful.

The House GOP campaign arm reported its best online fundraising day in 18 months Friday, providing a glimpse into Speaker Mike Johnson's potential to carry on the fundraising torch passed down by his predecessor, Rep. Kevin McCarthy.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, the political committee helping elect more Republicans in the House, pulled in $175,000, the group's best online fundraising day since February 2022.

Of course, while impressive fundraising hauls are nice, it should also be noted that with this power comes great responsibility - not just to the Republican House members who put him in the position after three weeks of drama, infighting, and Democrat meddling but also to the GOP grassroots who seem to be, for the time being, impressed with who and what they see.

Johnson has a rather large task in front of him headed into 2024: Keeping the various GOP factions in the House united while fighting against the Democrat/Biden agenda while also trying to implement one that his members - and the average Joe and Jane conservatives who are counting on him to deliver - can enthusiastically get behind.

It's a tall order to be sure, but as we've noted before, Johnson's conservative/leadership creds are solid, and on paper, at least, he looks to be the man who has the will and determination to get it done.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

Republicans Withdraw $1 Billion From BlackRock Due To Its ESG Policies

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
