If the MSM didn’t like McCarthy giving the J6 video to Tucker Carlson this is going to break them:
In the name of transparency, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has vowed to release the Jan. 6, 2021, security footage to the general public.
This done after the Carlson laid out the alternative to the official narrative is going to be the final straw.
On the plus side perhaps Bernie Thompson the Chairman of the Jan 6th might finally get a chance to see some of it.
As conditions here in this nation steadily deteriorate I find it most disheartening that so few seem to care. Far fewer seem inclined to do anything to stop and roll back the progressive onslaught on the freedom and prosperity of the American people. This is most shocking considering the fact that hardcore progressives make up only a small percentage of the population of this nation. There are many reasons for this.
Only a small minority of American people actually know what is going on because the left has such a stranglehold on the lines of communication most of us rely on. With the exception of Fox News, all of the major news networks spout leftist propaganda. Newsmax and One America News are small potatoes compared to the others and Fox News is far from the Conservative powerhouse it was back in 2010, having been corrupted with progressive influence. Here in Massachusetts the local news is pure leftist tripe. Every time I watch I get nauseated. So few have access to the truth.
The progressive news media is so adept at casting everything from that side of the political spectrum in a purely positive light, while denigrating all things conservative and libertarian as pure evil. Because of this most of the more moderate leftists consider themselves to be on the right side of every issue.
Thanks to the widespread censorship of those on the right side of the political spectrum by the social media giants, most are unaware just how bad conditions are. Most are unaware that progressive policies have caused the carnage.
After several decades of progressive indoctrination at the college level, and a decade at the high and grade school levels, about half of all Americans do not value freedom and liberty. They mistakenly believe socialism is superior to capitalism.
Progressives have learned that fear is overwhelmingly powerful weapon when it comes to subjugating a populace. The Wuhan Flu pandemic was the perfect weapon to accomplish this. It was extremely disturbing to see most of the population meekly accept the trampling of their most important rights.
The deck is so unfairly stacked against us, yet we must wake up our friends and neighbors. Violence is not the answer. Communication amd peaceful resistance are our most crucial tools.
The left continues to be very loud in their quest to turn the city of DC into a state claiming they want to give the city full representation but in fact looking to gain political advantage.
However the problem of DC representation in congress is easily solved by my 28th Amendment to the Constitution:
Viola Full representation for the citizens of the District of Columbia.
If I was the GOP As soon as I had control of congress I’d introduce this as a Constitutional Amendment at their earliest opportunity and get it out to the states.

Just up the road from our home in Muncy, Pennsylvania, sits the skeleton of the former Lycoming Mall, which recently locked its doors after nearly 45 years in business.
The mall, which opened in 1978, had more than 80 outlets. Many now defunct stores were once located there: Hess’s, Woolworth, Deb, KB Toys, Bon-Ton, Baker’s Shoes, Christopher & Banks, and others.
The issues that led to the closure of the Lycoming Mall plague many malls throughout the country: the impact of Covid and online buying.
While the country’s most popular malls continue to perform relatively well, with steady foot traffic and occupancy, hundreds of others are grappling with significant vacancies, fewer visitors, and uncertain futures.
American malls are a story of haves and have-nots. The real estate analytics firm Green Street estimates that at the 1,000 U.S. malls it tracks, there are about 750 vacant anchor boxes — vast spaces that once housed chains like Sears, Nordstrom, and Macy’s. Those are difficult to fill in regular times, but the past few years have made it extraordinarily tough.
A slew of bankruptcies, including J.C. Penney and Brooks Brothers, fueled closures. Some retailers decided to shutter their least-profitable stores, causing another exodus. More than 12,000 stores announced closures in 2020, according to CoStar Group, a data provider for the real estate industry.
Many people have a deep nostalgia for their local mall. It was often a place for teens to hang out after school, a source for back-to-school clothing, or the locale of a first job.
One of the local news sites collected stories from people about the Lycoming Mall.
“I got my Cabbage Patch doll there. I took classes in the community room to teach me how to walk in heels and put on makeup. I performed in the hole that was in the center of the mall at one time (baton twirling). I got belly button rings from Spencer’s. I got books for my daughter from the bookstore and took her to Boardwalk for fun. I have chased my grandkids around in that mall. So many memories,” said Bobbimarie Allen.
Fortunately, a group of local developers plans to create a mixed residential and shopping area in the Lycoming Mall, so the vast area won’t be an eyesore in a few years!
