On Sunday‚ the U.S. Senate finally released the text of its border deal between Democrats‚ President Joe Biden and Republicans‚ and conservatives everywhere are furious over the "sellout" bill sponsored by Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Lankford. Indeed‚ there is so much that is bad in this monstrosity that the Republicans...

Beer is one of humanity’s oldest beverages‚ dating to at least the fifth millennium BC. What is certain is that the first beer in the world was made by women. Not just one woman‚ but all women across cultures and timespans were at the forefront of beer creation.

If anyone in Australia told you another Syd’s Run is coming up‚ you might think it has something to do with Sydney. However‚ it happens in Christchurch‚ New Zealand. One instantly knows something is up when you spot a gaggle of Honda C50s on the way to the starting point of the event at the periphery of Christchurch’s Central Business District. Syd’s Moped Run is held each November‚ just before New Zealand’s summer kicks in. The run was started by Sydney James Falconer in 1995. Falconer ran the event for many years on the Saturday that fell closest to his birthday. After he passed away‚ his son Keith continued to run it for several more years. “Dad was a hard man‚” Keith told us. “He wasn’t one for rules and regulations. He rode bikes all his life‚ like Triumphs – biker’s bikes mainly – but as he got older‚ he moved back to the smaller stuff. Our family tried to give him a party for his 70th birthday‚ but he refused. Instead‚ he sat down with his old cronies from the vintage car club‚ and they mapped out a moped run‚ which had to be pedal-powered when it initially started.” Falconer rode an old 50cc Puch with pedals‚ or alternatively‚ his Ducati Cucciolo. He was a great one for specials‚ a hard case. Falconer ran the event for nearly 20 years until his health got the better of him. The whole spectacle is a great way for people to get out on small bikes and enjoy themselves. Current organizer Aaron Card says the run is for anyone riding small bikes‚ but he doesn’t mind if you turn up on a Harley and join in. Ride it slow and have a good time; that’s all that matters. Card says it’s not at all about speed but rather the people‚ the mates‚ the camaraderie‚ and hanging out together. See all of Rider‘s Trike‚ Sidecar &; Scooter reviews here. Attendance is impressive. On the 25th anniversary run in 2020‚ organizers stopped counting when they reached 306 participants leaving the start‚ with more who kept joining in. It was a significant jump from the very first run‚ which had about 45 riders. And what a selection of machinery it usually is. Wandering through the crowd in the main parking area and adjacent street parking for the overspill‚ a vast array of vintage mopeds from the Big Four Japanese manufacturers usually dominates the spectacle. It ranges from small Honda cafe racers with up-spec or aftermarket fitted horizontal engines to racing fuel tanks to fancy Yoshimura exhaust work. I’ve seen pit bikes with suicide shifters‚ a ratty looking Honda Hero Stream‚ and a 50cc Honda Turbo Z. Some of these bikes belong to the local Quake City Rumblers‚ a moped club that pines over modified classic Japanese mopeds and helps with marshalling duties at the event. Your eye might catch a rusty metal panel lookalike scooter‚ perhaps a Honda Joker or something of Aprilia origin‚ complete with metal chains hanging off it. One of the very few Vespas I’ve spotted was modified to run on a slammed rear suspension. Had I not seen the scoot arrive earlier‚ I would’ve guessed it wasn’t rideable. Honda Cubs in original vintage patina join forces with specials like a stretched Honda Cub with a long chopper fork. Even the odd Honda CT110 “Postie” or farm bike usually blends in seamlessly. A Gandalf-like bearded enthusiast willingly posed for a picture for me‚ sitting on his vintage Yamaha scoot‚ parked up close to some vintage Suzuki scoots and small-displacement Suzuki street or trail motorcycles‚ including a Suzuki AC50 Maverick from 1973. Italy represented itself with an immaculately looking Guzzi Stornello 160 and a Ducati 55‚ joined by some “cyclemotors”: bicycles with engines fitted to them on the frame rails or on the rear carrier rack‚ such as a Triumph-framed bike. Hell‚ even an old Velosolex showed up‚ a moped hugely popular in its day in Europe. An Excelsior scooter joined ranks with a Mayfly Falcon from 1938‚ the latter parked with a “For Sale” sign. Nearby‚ a Raleigh moped proudly displayed a small handwritten phrase: “If you can’t be fast‚ be spectacular.” This catchphrase can easily describe the whole event in one sentence. More vintage European scoots rounded up the spectacle‚ including a rare German-built 49cc Goericke Goerette from 1955‚ a Victoria from Nuremberg‚ and a good old Puch from Austria. There is a big social aspect about the whole outing. Half the day is about eating‚ having a drink‚ and talking‚ and the other half of the day is about riding the bikes. The ride stretches over 62 miles‚ done in two parts over Christchurch’s predominantly flat terrain over the span of about eight hours. The first part leads the participants down Ferry Road toward the Christchurch Gondola to the Port Hills tunnel over to Lyttelton and its natural harbor‚ which is a caved-in extinct volcano filled with sea water‚ then to Bridal Path Road‚ and on to the seaside settlements of Sumner and New Brighton (Quadrophenia‚ anyone?) to Thomson Park. Proceeding from there‚ the cavalcade rides down Marshlands Road and via the suburb of Northlands back to the CBD‚ concluding in the inner city’s Smash Palace outdoor pub for prizes and the subsequent wrap-up.

When a massive moose began chasing her tiny dog‚ Cathy Diehl-Robbins from Alaska discovered “the mom voice” doesn’t just work on kids (or husbands). Apparently‚ it works on animals‚ too! Mothers seemingly have an endless arsenal of weapons and abilities when it comes to surveilling and correcting their children. Most know that mothers have eyes in the back of their heads. They basically develop a sixth sense‚ somehow able to detect their children's movements without even looking in their direction. RELATED: Man Scolds Bear in a Tree like a Puppy for Eating from Bird Feeder &; Folks Are Seriously Impressed But‚ without a doubt‚ the most paralyzing and impactful ability in a mother’s arsenal is the "mom voice." Everyone is familiar with “the mom voice." It's a stern and angry tone that signals that trouble is brewing. At this time‚ it's best to carefully listen to the words that come out of Mom's mouth. As it turns out‚ "mom voice" is even powerful enough to cause a 1‚000-pound moose to stop in its tracks‚ according to one video posted on YouTube! The Universal Power Of “The Mom Voice” Cathy Diehl-Robbins and her family live in Alaska. She states they live in the state for the wildlife and have had many members of the wildlife community show up in their backyard. RELATED: Fearless Dog Chased Bear From Neighbor's Yard And Security Cameras Caught The Whole Thing One day‚ Cathy saw a moose terrorizing the family’s smallest member — her defenseless 6-pound Yorkshire terrier. Cathy employed her "mom voice” while defending the dog. And amazingly‚ it stopped the wild animal dead in its tracks! She yelled‚ "Hey‚ hey‚ hey‚ hey! No!" at the animal‚ causing the moose to freeze and stop chasing the miniature canine. Cathy's husband‚ in an interview‚ laughingly said that he is also familiar with that tone‚ which caused a large wild animal to freeze in fear. "It's the ‘mom voice' and it's the ‘husband voice‚'" he said. Cathy added that she has the final say and authority over everyone – human or animal – who steps in her yard.

In his latest interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo‚ President Trump floated the names of two people who could possibly be his vice president pick. In the interview‚ when asked by Bartiromo‚ “What criteria are you using to identify who your running mate is?” Trump proceeded to give compliments to Senator Tim Scott and Governor Krist Noem. Trump shared‚ “You know‚ I called Tim Scott and people like Tim Scott‚ and I said you’re a much better candidate for me than you are for yourself.” Regarding Gov.

Check out  what Fox News reported: Former President Trump revealed his criteria for a running mate on Sunday‚ but he told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that he won’t announce a vice presidential pick “for a little while.” Trump made the comments in an interview with Bartiromo that aired on “Sunday Morning Futures.” He said the most important factor is to ensure his running mate would be able to step up and handle the presidency in the case of an emergency. “What criteria are you using to identify who your running mate is?” Bartiromo asked. “Always‚ it’s got to be who is going to be a good president. Obviously‚ you always have to think that because in case of emergency. Things happen‚ right? No matter who you are‚ things happen. That’s got to be No. 1‚” Trump said. “Well‚ I have a lot of good people. I have a lot of good ideas‚” he added‚ saying he “talks to everybody.” “You know‚ I called [South Carolina Sen.] Tim Scott and people like Tim Scott‚ and I said you’re a much better candidate for me than you are for yourself‚” Trump said. “When I watched him‚ he was fine.

Trump‚ in an interview with Fox News “Sunday Morning Futures” anchor Maria Bartiromo‚ was asked when he will announce his pick for vice president‚ to which he said‚ “Not for a while. We have so many great people in the Republican Party‚ but not for a while.” Bartiromo further pressed the former president on how he is picking his running mate. “Always it’s got to be one thing‚” Trump said. “It’s got to be who would [be] able to be a good president. I mean‚ you always have to think that because you know‚ a civil emergency … things happen right? No matter who you are‚ things happen. It’s got to be number one. Who’s your enemy.” He further stated that there is “a lot of good people‚” to which Bartiromo asked if Trump has not decided who it is.

Chinese stocks are in free fall following comments made by President Trump on Sunday Morning Futures. The 45th President explained that he would levy a 60% tariff on Chinese products in order to protect American enterprise and restore the balance of trade. At roughly the same time‚ China is also experiencing collapses in its real estate sector—one of the nation’s premier industrial and economic drivers. It’s no secret that China’s economy is in trouble and this recent development certainly isn’t helping the powerhouse economy to regain its footing. With President Trump’s second term almost guaranteed at this point‚ I don’t expect Chinese stocks to rebound any time soon.

Things are about to get very bad I am afraid… RELATED: WARNING: The Program That Stopped The Banking Crash Last Year Is Ending On March 11th WARNING: The Program That Stopped The Banking Crash Last Year Is Ending On March 11th I'm not a financial advisor‚ I'm just a reporter but I am starting to see major bright red flashing warning lights! Imagine something just like this: 🚨🚨🚨 Just yesterday we covered what looks to be the start of the first bank failure of 2024....more on that down below in case you missed it. Bank Crash 2.0 Incoming? Another Bank On The Verge Of Collapse — Death Candle — Trading Halted! Then we had China's Evergrande officially going under‚ after many months of rumors: China’s Largest Real Estate Developer COLLAPSES But now I want to talk about something that could be bigger than both of those things. Remember the Banking Crisis of 2023? Back in March/April of last year‚ when 4 banks failed all within a few weeks of each other? Well‚ it turns out what helped stop that contagion from spreading was something known as the Bank Term Funding Program. Don't worry‚ you don't need to be a banker or expert economist to understand this‚ I'll make it simple for you. In fact‚ I'll let Grok explain it for you: And in case that's hard to read: The Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) is an emergency lending program created by the Federal Reserve in March 2023 to provide emergency liquidity to U.S. depository institutions. It was established in response to the sudden bank failures of Signature Bank and Silicon Valley Bank‚ which were the largest such collapses since the 2008 financial crisis. The program offers loans of up to one year in length to eligible borrowers pledging collateral eligible for purchase by Federal Reserve Banks in open market operations. The program started on March 12‚ 2023‚ and is scheduled to end on March 11‚ 2024. The Federal Reserve has announced that the program will cease making new loans as scheduled. The ending of the BTFP might create chaos and even a banking crisis or bank crash because it has provided an additional source of liquidity for financial institutions with an asset-liability duration mismatch relating to high-quality collateral. The program's goal was to provide banks an alternative to quickly selling off high-quality collateral at current discounted market values to fund liquidity needs. If the program ends‚ banks that have been relying on the BTFP for liquidity may find themselves in a difficult position‚ potentially leading to a banking crisis or bank crash. However‚ the Federal Reserve has stated that the program's ending is a planned measure and part of its effort to demonstrate support for the banking system. In other words‚ I like the way this guy said it -- the Fed just pulled the Bank's safety net: The Fed just rug pulled the bank’s safety net on their emergency Bank Term Funding Program that was implemented to slow down deposit flight after SVB’s rapid failure. Stop the arb now and ending program in March. https://t.co/qkskXFo6Tl pic.twitter.com/dEQZdnOjKh — Edward Dowd (@DowdEdward) January 25‚ 2024 UH OH!!! Here it is from the Fed's own Twitter account: @federalreserve announces that the Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) will cease making new loans as scheduled on March 11: https://t.co/W4dc2cj6TB — Federal Reserve (@federalreserve) January 25‚ 2024 And the official Press Release from the Federal Reserve: The Federal Reserve Board on Wednesday announced that the Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) will cease making new loans as scheduled on March 11. The program will continue to make loans until that time and is available as an additional source of liquidity for eligible institutions. During a period of stress last spring‚ the Bank Term Funding Program helped assure the stability of the banking system and provide support for the economy. After March 11‚ banks and other depository institutions will continue to have ready access to the discount window to meet liquidity needs. As the program ends‚ the interest rate applicable to new BTFP loans has been adjusted such that the rate on new loans extended from now through program expiration will be no lower than the interest rate on reserve balances in effect on the day the loan is made. This rate adjustment ensures that the BTFP continues to support the goals of the program in the current interest rate environment. This change is effective immediately. All other terms of the program are unchanged. The BTFP was established under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act‚ with approval of the Treasury Secretary. Nothing has improved from last year‚ it's only been covered up by this program. And interest rates are now higher creating more pressure on the system. In other words...not good! So...what happens when the safety net gets pulled? It should be interesting to see what happens when the BTFP ends in March. This is the emergency loan program that the Fed established during the regional bank crisis. Small banks are still feeling the pain.

That is‚ if you can find any. KEEP READING AND I'LL GIVE YOU THE BEST CONNECTION I HAVE FOR KEEPING YOUR FAMILY SAFE AND GETTING PREPARED Andy Shectman: "No one wants to sell their Gold or Silver at these make believe prices" I've been telling you for a long time now that Gold and Silver are vastly undervalued. I'm not a financial advisor and I can't tell you what to do‚ but I can look at historical data and I can easily see that the current price of Gold and Silver makes no sense unless....it's being manipulated. Now who would want to do that? And the more important question: will it go on forever‚ or do the manipulators eventually release the stretched rubber band and ride an explosion up? I've you've been paying attention in life‚ you know the answer. You know these crooks on Wall Street manipulate things down‚ ⭐ then they load their boats‚ then they manipulate them up into a bubble. Where are we in that process right now for commodities like Gold and Silver? Right exactly where I placed that star up above. ⭐ = You Are Here The Big Boys are loading their boats. But that's not just my opinion. I'm a nobody. Listen to Andy Schectman who is an expert on these things and he lays it out PERFECTLY in two minutes. Here's my rough paraphrase: "A concerted effort by the very powerful to use the suppression of commodities (gold‚ silver‚ but also a long list of all other commodities)...these countries are not complaining about suppressed low prices yet because they're accumulating!  But once it becomes obvious that the availability of these commodities is very scarce and no one wants to sell at these "make believe prices" then the public says "OMG‚ what have we been missing?"  And maybe that all happens in concert with a breakdown of the banking system‚ then the public says "give it to me now" and that's when you'll see the circuit breakers be put into affect.  But at that point it's too late."

Simple: you need to get some #Gold or #Silver in your own possession. It's called "physical" gold and silver. Not paper traded garbage on the stock exchanges that isn't backed by anything. Don't touch that stuff. I have two special hook-ups for you. Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver. Because if you do NOTHING else‚ make sure you own "physical" gold and silver‚ not paper contracts. The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero‚ because they're not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent. It's a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon...) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it's literally written on. And I know you'll never forget it if I give you this GIF so....Let's Get Physical: Now...WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it's real and safe? And that you're getting the best price? Oh‚ and how about personal one-on-one real customer service? You know‚ like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help? That's what I'm about to tell you.   I have two killer connections for you... The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion. That means bulk bars. That's the cheapest and most economical way to do it‚ to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible. The website is called WLT Precious Metals and when you see my logo in the top left-hand corner‚ you'll know you're in the right place. You'll get a personal phone call with Ira Bershatsky (or someone on his team) and they will work with you free of charge for as long as needed to answer any questions you have and get you taken care of. How about that! You don't see that much anymore‚ but Ira and his team pride themselves on good old-fashioned real customers service: No sales pitch‚ just real‚ actual help. And the best prices you will find. Here's the only disclaimer I will give you: because they do pride themselves on dedicated service‚ it might take a few days before you get a phone call back.  Just be patient. Good things come to those who wait! You can contact Ira and WLT Precious Metals here. Ok‚ that was #1. Now I want to tell you about option #2. An equally great company‚ I am so happy to be working with these guys. This next company is called Genesis Gold and this is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts). You know what the beauty of that is? TAX FREE baby! I'm not a tax advisor‚ but that's a general oversimplification. Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay. And that's why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!). There's so much to love about Genesis Gold‚ starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina! They call it "Faith-Driven Stewardship" and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel: Wealth Preservation With Gold &; Silver – The Genesis Gold IRA By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself‚ and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4 Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability‚ and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess. Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization‚ and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency‚ man-made paper‚ and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust‚ sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war‚ greed‚ and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline‚ nurture self-constraint‚ self-reliance‚ and balance‚ and lead to confidence‚ a restrained government‚ and a more stable foreign policy. Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold &; Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times. With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry‚ let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA. Sincerely‚ Genesis Gold Group Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship Oh....and they're VERY good at what they do. You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis‚ believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer‚ a picture taken and sent to you‚ and then stored safely in a vault for you! I love what these guys are doing. Here's more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful: You can contact Genesis Gold here.

Ohio Senator J.D. Vance spoke on ABC News with George Stephanopoulos when he was inappropriately silenced for his opinion on the Supreme Court. During their discussion‚ Senator Vance said that if the Supreme Court gave an illegitimate ruling about President Trump firing a general‚ President Trump would have the right to deny the Supreme Court ruling. This led to George Stephanopoulos saying‚ “You’ve made it very clear you believe the president can defy the Supreme Court.” before abruptly mutting Sen. Vance’s microphone. George Stephanopoulos cut off Ohio Senator JD Vance on #ABC This Week because he made him look like the scum propaganda media he really is. ABC “news” is media manipulation at its finest.

JD Vance‚ R-Ohio‚ was shut down by ABC News “This Week” anchor George Stephanopoulos on Sunday after suggesting that former President Trump could defy “illegitimate” Supreme Court rulings. “The Constitution says that the Supreme Court can make rulings‚ but if the Supreme Court ― and look‚ I hope that they would not do this ― but if the Supreme Court said the president of the United States can’t fire a general‚ that would be an illegitimate ruling and the president has to have Article 2 prerogative under the Constitution to actually run the military as he sees fit‚” Vance said. “This is just basic constitutional legitimacy. You’re talking about a hypothetical where the Supreme Court tries to run the military. I don’t think that’s going to happen‚ George. But of course‚ if it did‚ the president would have to respond to it. There are multiple examples throughout American history of the president doing just that.” Stephanopoulos asked if the president must abide by legitimate Supreme Court rulings‚ and when Vance responded‚ the ABC News personality said‚ “You’ve made it very clear you believe the president can defy the Supreme Court.” Vance attempted to respond by saying‚ “No‚ no‚ George …” but had his mic muted before the show went to break. You saw a lot of news hosts cutting off their guests during the 2016 election; it looks like we are right back there. These propaganda machines continue to highlight their blatant bias against conservative ideals. Watch what Senator J.D. Vance said about Democrat’s lawfare against President Trump: Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) easily bested an outmatched George Stephanopoulos on today’s “ABC This Week.” Here Vance puts the Dem lawfare against Trump into proper perspective.

Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel has faced backlash from within the party for years‚ in large part due to the GOP’s record of electoral losses under her leadership. Her last re-election campaign was nearly derailed by rivals who insisted that the RNC needed a new head‚ and 2024 GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump seems to agree. Trump on Ronna McDaniel at RNC: There will probably be some changes made pic.twitter.com/nS6y6BZtTB — Acyn (@Acyn) February 4‚ 2024 According to RedState: Former president Donald Trump strongly hinted Sunday that RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel is on the way out. In an exclusive interview with Fox News Channel’s Maria Bartiromo‚ “You have to understand‚ I have nothing to do with the RNC; I’m separate‚” said Trump‚ “I think she did great when she ran Michigan for me‚ I think she did OK initially in the RNC. I would say right now there will probably be some changes made.” Replacing McDaniel has been a topic of considerable discussion on social media in recent months.

According to The Hill: “We have to have accountability in our party. For that matter‚ Ronna‚ if you want to come on stage tonight and look the GOP voters in the eye and tell them you resign‚ I will turn over‚ yield my time to you‚” Ramaswamy said. The campaign for President Biden highlighted Ramaswamy’s comments in a post on X‚ the platform formerly known as Twitter. “Ramaswamy: We’ve become a party of losers‚” the post states‚ along with a video of his comments. Here’s a clip of Ramaswamy’s remark: In my opinion‚ simply being related to “Pierre Delecto” is reason enough for her removal…. BUT SO IS THIS: Ronna “Romney” McDaniel‚ RNC EXPOSED For Wasting MILLIONS of Dollars! Ronna "Romney" McDaniel‚ RNC EXPOSED For Wasting MILLIONS of Dollars! I guess "wasting" is a subjective term‚ but I've got a huge new report on RNC spending and I'll just let you decide. You know every time you donate to the RNC and you think you're helping President Trump? Think again. This is where they've actually been spending your money (and why they're BROKE!).... From Benny Johnson: 🚨Ronna McDaniel's RNC seeks new credit line to help climb out of money hole Meanwhile‚ in 5 years the RNC spent: - $3.1 million on private jet services- $1.3 million on limousine/chauffeur services- $17.1 million on donor mementos- $750‚000 on floral arrangements- $80‚000… pic.twitter.com/S1DreaNk4O — Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) February 1‚ 2024 Ronna McDaniel's RNC seeks new credit line to help climb out of money hole Meanwhile‚ in 5 years the RNC spent: - $3.1 million on private jet services - $1.3 million on limousine/chauffeur services - $17.1 million on donor mementos - $750‚000 on floral arrangements - $80‚000 in alcohol-related expenditures - $400‚000 on luxury entertainment Below are the ridiculous expenses during JUST the 2022 election cycle: These are the people we're supposed to believe will bring fiscal responsibility to DC? WE NEED BETTER LEADERS. Here's a Zoom In on that chart: So all of it is absurd‚ but I have to ask about the last line.... What in the Hell is $1‚280 on "LGBTQ+ Filings"? The story originally broke from RedState who had this excellent reporting: Despite Joe Biden’s economy and three straight cycles of election losses‚ the RNC’s big-spending days are back with a vengeance. Perhaps because of these losses both RNC donors and committee members are intensely interested in the committee’s finances‚ particularly the spending. Late last week‚ RedState was provided a report dated October 7‚ 2022 that examined RNC’s 2021-22 spending. It calculated more than $500‚000 in private jet expenses‚ $64‚000 at clothing retailers‚ and $321‚000 in floral arrangements. RNC expenditures for private jets‚ floral arrangements‚ entertainment‚ and more during the 2021-22 election cycle. To determine how that compared with the rest of Ronna McDaniel’s tenure‚ RedState examined RNC expenditures from 2017 through 2022. In addition to a review of Federal Elections Commission (FEC) data‚ RedState spoke with current vendors‚ state party officials familiar with the workings‚ former staffers (some from McDaniel’s tenure‚ and some who worked for prior chairs)‚ and several current RNC members to verify numbers and dates. Most were only willing to discuss the matters on background‚ and all were promised anonymity to avoid potential retaliation. It is difficult to accurately categorize all of the expenditures because a significant number of transactions seem to be misclassified. For example‚ nearly $5‚000 spent in 2022 at Lululemon‚ a luxury athletic apparel brand‚ was classified as “office expense‚” as were two expenditures totaling $9‚300 at Madison Square Garden in 2017. Our review found that the amounts spent during the 2021-22 election cycle seem to have been par for the course and possibly even lower than previous portions of McDaniel’s tenure. According to FEC filings‚ since 2017‚ the RNC has spent: $3.1 million on private jet services $1.3 million on limousine/chauffeur services $17.1 million on donor mementos $750‚000 on floral arrangements $80‚000 in alcohol-related expenditures Nearly $400‚000 has been spent on event tickets and other entertainment activities‚ including $30‚000 for a private box at a Las Vegas Raiders game‚ $13‚000 for Broadway shows‚ $9‚400 at Madison Square Garden‚ and $43‚000 at Top Golf locations in Texas‚ Nevada‚ Virginia‚ and Maryland. According to a senior staffer‚ the private box Raiders game was part of a retreat for senior staff members. RNC funds were also used to fly the senior staffers and their plus-ones first-class to Las Vegas‚ and for their hotel rooms‚ food‚ and alcohol‚ the staffer says. Senior staff retreats were also held at the Salamander Resort &; Spa in Virginia in 2021 and 2022‚ according to another staffer. A national committee member says that at the 2021 retreat‚ held from March 19-21‚ 30 senior staffers and their families attended‚ and the RNC paid for Katie Walsh and Mike Shields to speak to the group. FEC reporting shows that the RNC paid $260‚000 to the resort in 2021 and 2022‚ classified as travel expenses and venue rental and catering.

Lindell went public with the expected decision during Steve Bannon's "War Room" podcast. "With all my due diligence and in prayer‚ I am 100% running for RNC chairman against Ronna McDaniel‚" Lindell said. "I didn't hear one negative from donors‚ from heads of state‚" he added. "Not only am I going to win‚ it's going to change real fast‚" he said about the RNC. "We're going to get our country right‚ really quick." Lindell later told Business Insider his first priority is to call all 168 members of the RNC to find out what the biggest problem is with the organization. McDaniel has already been endorsed by a majority of the RNC's voting members — 101 in total — who signed on to a letter endorsing her re-election‚ The Hill has reported. Lindell has been open about his interest in the job‚ telling National File that Republicans "need someone who knows how to run a business to lead one of the most important organizations in our country."

Among them are the social media sites FrankSpeech.com and Lindell TV‚ and the Lindell Recovery Network‚ which helps people overcome addictions‚ Lindell said in an interview Friday with Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast.” Bannon played a recording of a telephone call between a top executive at Minnesota Bank &; Trust and Lindell’s controller. The executive asked in the call why the bank‚ a subsidiary of Heartland Financial‚ is associated with “someone who could be in the news.” “Not that the FBI is even sniffing and looking‚ but what if somebody came and said‚ ‘Do you know what? We are going to subpoena all of his account records‚ and this and that. And then all of a sudden we make the news‚” the executive said. “So it’s more of a reputation risk‚” he said. You can listen to that conversation here on Rumble: Here's more from Trending Politics: Lindell‚ after his controller informed him of the bank’s intentions‚ tried to call CEO Stephen Bishop but was put on hold for an hour. He called back and was put on hold for another 45 minutes. “They’re telling us you need to leave our bank‚” Lindell told Bannon. “They said they want FrankSpeech gone … in a week‚ and they want all the rest gone in 30 days. “I said‚ I am not … leaving‚ so you’re going to have to throw me out of your bank.” Lindell noted that such canceling hasn’t worked out well for Bed‚ Bath‚ and Beyond‚ having closed 37 stores since canceling his products. Well‚ America the time to act is now. Here is the full interview on Steve Bannon's War Room here on Rumble: Here's the current tally and now we can add this Bank to the list: All of these have dropped MYPILLOW products.Pls let them know WHY you won't shop there anymore.

Both of those facts point to a dark future. In any case‚ Lindell says that immediately after his controller told him that the bank was trying to cancel him‚ he tried to call the bank’s CEO‚ Stephen Bishop. However‚ despite being a major customer (just think how much business MyPillow does)‚ the bank put him on hold for an hour. He then tried calling back but was put on hold yet again‚ this time for another 45 minutes. Despite that‚ Lindell remained defiant‚ saying that while the bank wants the Frank Speech account gone within a week and the rest in thirty days‚ he said “I am not … leaving‚ so you’re going to have to throw me out of your bank.” Lindell likely has good reasons to be optimistic. While finding another bank‚ one willing to do business with him‚ will be a pain and likely cause a significant headache for his thriving business‚ he’s survived cancellation before.
