Principled Conservatives like to slam “their own side” due to principles.

But if they are driven by principle, how do they have a political side?

If and since they don’t have a side due to principles, why do they attack the side closer aligned with their policy principles?
Principled Cons reserve their harshest criticism for politicians who take the most media heat which is mostly against Republicans.

Odd because those Cons like to whine about media power yet they follow along. They claim to be driven by principle yet they get influenced by media.
Principled Cons (PCs) claim to be conservatice on policy and therefore aligned with the GOP which is more right-leaning than Democrats. Yet, these PCs enable Democrats to drive Republicans from office and to implement anti-conservative policy. What is principle in this?
Principled Cons claim to be conservatice on policy and therefore aligned with the GOP which is more right-leaning than Democrats. Yet, PCs are the wing of the GOP easiest and first to rollover on policy and politics when the going gets tough. So what is Conservative about them?
The NRO/DCX crowd of the GOP/Con movement says it’s insane how Republicans are obsessed with one man; Cult45 they call it. Yet those guys helped lead to GOP losses in 2018/2020 just because they don’t like one man whom they say should not dictate a political party.

Clowns!
PCs enabled the country to move left on courts, border, immigration, taxes, energy, social issues, religious freedom etc because they dislike Trump and undermined him. Those guys - who burned down a political party due to one person - say a party should not center on one person.
Illegal border crossing is highest in 20 years while deportations by ICE last month was the lowest on record.

If you are a legit conservative, how is this price worth just to get rid of Trump?

By undermining him last year, you helped Biden win which led to these results.
Principled Cons are most responsible to enabling Dems to win and to implement anti-Conservative policies.

PCs are also the first to fold to Dem Media talking points when the GOP is in majority office; thus making it difficult for the GOP to implement Conservative policies.
Principled Cons preen mostly in a way that aligns with Dem Media and especially on politicking items; meaning, the place where if you loss you don’t have the power to implement Conservative policies. Ben Shapiro takes strong stances on some policies but he folds on politicking.
The fault line in the GOP is not Cons versus moderates on policy. Every political party moves on policy over a period of time. The fault line is process, the politicking part of politics. A minority in the GOP is willing to battle; a majority folds to Dem and yearns their praise.

2 million non-Jewish Arabs live in Israel, and Jews were "Palestinian" the same as non-Jews.

On the flip side, Palestinianism today is predicated on the notion that the area should be free of Jews; the same as in Nazi Germany.

Israel = Inclusivity.

Palestinianism = Nazism.
2/ It's not that Antisemites attach themselves to the "Palestinian" cause. The movement IS antisemitic because if Jews are Palestinian, then "Palestine will be free" from what? The Israel government? Um, if we call it Palestine, Jews will still be in the government. Then what?
3/ "Palestine" is a geographic area that had Jews, Muslims, Christians, so to use "Palestinians" as non-Jews only is Nazism.

This is worse than a white guy who wants NYC to be 91% white as it was in 1948. It's worse because Palestine in 1948 was +50% Jewish, then Arabs invaded. Image

1/ Why didn’t Obama & Dems make Juneteenth a federal holiday a decade ago?

Simple. The day came into focus only when Trump had planned to return campaigning on 6/19/20. Faix storm ensued.

To own Trump, a federal holiday was born.

I am not complaining; I am giving you history.
2/ Check the Twitter feed of many congressional and Senate Dems, TV heads, and leftists pundits. Most of them literally never sent a tweet about Juneteenth before it became an issue to own Trump in 2020; some only had a mention here and there in previous years.
3/ For example, in all her years on Twitter until 2020, @SpeakerPelosi’s account had tweeted only 4 times abut Juneteenth.

In 2020 alone she tweeted it 4 times; passed a House resolution about the day and got it signed a federal holiday in June '21 by Biden.

- There are no 250+ deaths from the rescue; sure not mostly civilians.

- There is no famine; 99.9% people are full-faced.

- It is not a "camp" of "refugees." It is a fully-developed neighborhood by people who never lived elsewhere.

It's a movement predicated on brazen lies!
Gaza claimed that 23,300 of its citizens died in the first 3 months of the war.

That's 260 deaths a day; 90 days in a row.

If true, the strike in Rafah 2 weeks ago; the strike on a "UN warehouse" last week; and deaths from the rescue would hardly be news.

It's a BS Machine.
No one sane refers to Hasidim in Williamsburg as refugees despite their grand parents having escaped from Europe and from Muslim-majority countries 70-80 years ago. Yet grandkids from Jordanians who worked 2 years for Jews in Haifa in the 1940's, are called refugees...

Can a POTUS retroactively revoke his political opponent's presidential privileges which paves the way for a raid on and prosecution of his opponent who is now seeking immunity from this POTUS?

The answer is yes. Biden did just that.
A Biden Judge asked the attorney of Biden's Political Opponet if a POTUS has the authority to take out his political opponent, and if the answer is no then it implies that Biden('s DOJ) can continue to try to take out his political opponent...

1984 wasn't this convoluted.
The Biden DOJ asked Trump for docs.

Trump claimed executive privilege (EP).

DOJ went to the WH for help.

Biden Deputized the National Archivist to revoke Trump's EP.

She did.

DOJ affidavit mentions violations of Archive laws (created by action above) as a reason to raid! 🚨 Image

Via @ChuckGrassley: "I have no evidence [on Biden wrongdoing]. the fact haven't taken me to that point where I can say the president is guilty of anything."

A - There is more evidence than in many white collar cases.

B- Dems didn't speak this way about no-evidence of collusion.
For years, @ASavageNation claimed that "liberalism is a mental disorder," but it is increasingly clear that Republicanism is a symptom/sign of mental issues.

Idiots are Republicans; Rollover Suckers are Conservatives - for the most part; especially those in DC.
@ASavageNation Conspirators texting about the involvement of a third person has been used in cases. 10% for "the big guy"was mentioned.

He got onto calls/had meetings with vendors which is also used in cases.

He got 10% of a $400K pay through a brother middle man who got $10K.
