We are back this afternoon as the legislature reconvenes!
We will bring you the important updates as the day progresses but right now here's a live look 👇👇👇
Anyone inside in there? Lights are off 💭 lol
Things starting to pick up here this afternoon:
-Senator @NebraskaMegan Hunt threatens Republican colleagues a few times
- Speaker Jon Arch says Hunt was late coming back from lunch, that's why she was skipped over
Sen. Hunt is consistently late in the mornings & for committees
Senator Hunt rudely attempts to speak while the Speaker has his time. Speaker Arch proceeds to say, "Please Senator."
Arch continues to say the session is not over (in response to Hunt earlier this morning)
Don't soon forget, @jordanbpeterson rightly identified the same thing 🤷♂️
Nebraskans deserve better 👍👍
Moving on here, we have a live look at @senatormachaela on the floor of the 108th legislative session here in Nebraska.
Dems flailing and freaking out all over the place now, the walls are closing in... #neleg
LB 77, Constitutional Carry, is now being debated on the floor!
Dem Senator @SenMcKinneyLD11 speaks about the current state of affairs in the Nebraska Legislature & the behavior of The Coven:
"I'm over it. I'm tired. I'm frustrated."
Grateful Senator McKinney supports LB 77 👍
Thank you @NebraskaDems for making @JaneRaybould the face of this discussion lol, yikes
Sen. @JaneRaybould said road rage causes gun violence 😳
None of us here at NFC can even begin to anticipate what she's going to say next but she's certainly the gift that keeps on giving 👍🫶
@NebraskaDems have an amendment put forth..
It is Amendment 666...
There are no coincidences here: The behavior of many of these Dem senators and what they are promoting is pure evil!
The Lord works in mysterious ways, and clearly this is a sign. #neleg#evil

@George4NE just finished up speaking with @CityOfLincoln City Attorney Yohance Christie. He was overheard saying: "Like, like omg, have you thought about the thought, dude, like wow, I think that you should take a trip with me to Strawberry Fields, and you'll like it, man! ☮️
@George4NE was also speaking with @Lincoln_Police Chief Teresa Ewins 🤮
Ewins is a radical left, virtue signaling plant from San Francisco thanks to @MayorLeirion.
Nebraskans say no thanks! Don't San Francisco our state, you've already done enough harm as it is! #neleg#Nebraska
Important to note there is a mayoral race going on in Lincoln. We were told candidate for mayor Stan Parker has met with 11 of the 13 dept. heads of the city.
Ewins is one of the depts who refused to meet with Parker... Why did she refuse to do so?! #dontsanfrancisconebraska
After a quick recess, this is where things currently sit on LB 77, Constitutional Carry.
A recommit to committee is not likely and via our communication channels, we do expect a vote on this tonight, possibly around 8:30.
Stay tuned #neleg
Senator @NebraskaMegan was recognized to speak, and she is absent from the floor.
Remember earlier today when she was late coming back from lunch also and missed her opportunity to speak 🤡
Always late #Disgraceful#neleg
Sen. @JaneRaybould is talking about 'life' this time around. Seems to be very concerned about people's right to life!!
Yet, she has no issue with slaughtering infants in the womb 🤷♂️ your skewed statistics are falling on deaf ears, Senator. Your credibility has hit the floor 📉
Senator John Lowe just described a story of his wife being thrown against a building & thrown to the ground in Lincoln, NE. She was knocked out.
Senator Lowe went on to say, "Downtown Lincoln is not safe at any time."
Thanks Teresa Ewins, @MayorLeirion, @YohanceChristie 👍 #neleg
Freshman Senator Brad Von Guillern, who has been great this session, reads a letter from the Nebraska Sheriff's Association, who fully support LB 77, Constitutional Carry 👍👍 #neleg
LB 77 is not going back to committee.
The house is under call as Brewer moves for cloture...
Senator Tom Brewer's bill, LB 77 Constitutional Carry, is moving on folks 💪🚂 #neleg
Of note, @SenatorGeist was present but did not vote this evening in support of the bill...
A big thanks for the show today put on by @JaneRaybould and @senatormachaela all session long #winning
Pressure from the Lincoln Police Union sure, but one voter was heard saying, "she didn’t vote for it, I will not lift a finger to help her for mayor!"... 😳
Uncovered in Hunter Biden's indictment: a staggering evasion of $1.4M in taxes, false tax returns, and extravagant spending while owing taxes. Lavish lifestyles, with $1.2M on personal luxuries like exotic cars and hotels, all while dodging tax responsibilities.
If found guilty, such financial misconduct could lead to severe penalties, including substantial prison time per count.
Remember, this is the smartest man Joe Biden knows.
#Accountability #TaxEvasion
The indictment document reveals several instances where Hunter Biden made payments to women, which were questionable in nature:
1. Payments to Women for Personal Services:Hunter Biden made payments to various women who were either romantically involved with him or performing personal services. This included a $10,000 payment for his membership in a sex club. He also claimed these expenses as false business deductions, thus falsely reducing his reported income for tax purposes.
2. False Payroll Deductions: He falsely claimed that money paid to women with whom he had personal relationships were wages, thereby reducing his tax burden. Despite little to no business activity, he directed his personal assistant to place three women with whom he had romantic or sexual relationships, and a fourth woman related to one of them, on payroll and provide them with health care benefits. These expenses were falsely treated as business expenses on Owasco PC’s Form 1120, reducing the reported income.
3. Specific Payments to Individual’s: He made a $1,500 Venmo payment to an exotic dancer at a strip club, labeling the payment as for “artwork” when no artwork was sold. Additionally, there was a $975 payment to “Crutch Card” for the benefit of his then-girlfriend, which was unrelated to any business activity, and a $438 payment to “Shinola,” a clothing store, for personal items.
These actions suggest a pattern of using business accounts for personal expenses and falsely categorizing them as business deductions, impacting his tax liabilities.
The indictment against Hunter Biden outlines several questionable actions:
1. Tax Evasion Scheme: He engaged in a scheme from January 2017 to October 2020 to avoid paying at least $1.4 million in self-assessed federal taxes for the years 2016 through 2019. This included evading the assessment of taxes for 2018 by filing false tax returns in February 2020.
2. Extravagant Lifestyle Over Tax Payments: He spent millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle instead of paying his tax bills. This included large expenditures on luxury items and living expenses.
3. Failure to File Tax Returns: He willfully failed to file his tax returns for 2017 and 2018.
4. False Business Deductions:When he finally filed his 2018 tax returns, he included false business deductions to evade the assessment of substantial tax liabilities.
5. Financial Support for Personal Expenses* Between January and October 2020, an entertainment lawyer provided him with substantial financial support, including paying for a lavish house, a Porsche, and other personal expenses, amounting to over $1.2 million. This support was used for various personal expenses but not to pay his federal individual income tax liabilities.
6. Summary of Expenditures: A summary of approximate expenditures made from Owasco PC and the Defendant’s Bank Accounts from 2016 to 2019 was provided, detailing his personal expenses during this period.
These actions, as outlined in the indictment, paint a picture of significant financial mismanagement and legal transgressions, particularly concerning tax obligations and personal expenditures.
📎 Attached are photos that preview the comprehensive 27-page document that presents a compelling case for a change in Sarpy County GOP leadership. It's time for new beginnings! ⏳
The totality of these pages showcases the dire need to bid farewell to the current leadership, plagued by ineffective decision-making and incompetence. 🚫🤝
Take a look at the numerous instances outlined within the document.
From obstructing the creation of a credentialing committee to adjourning meetings without proper procedures, the evidence speaks volumes. 🗂️📝
Robbie Adams, Margie Mosier, Michael Elkins, among others, experienced unacceptable delays & disrespect in their pursuit of membership.
🚨Now at the Nebraska State Capitol 🚨
Debate on 574 is underway, well ahead of schedule!!
Senator @George4NE on the mic now, and even as lawyers go, using some of the most hyperbolic language we've heard this legislative session 🤡 We're curious, George, is your practice of law… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
We will be keeping you updated minute to minute as things proceed this afternoon.
Now on the floor, @JustinTWayne and Speaker Arch having discussions with the Clerk of the legislature and Lt. Governor Joe Kelly. The conversation is intense, as Wayne has motioned to recommit the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
@JustinTWayne is now attempting to overrule the chair, reading off from Mason's Manual of Legislative Procedure.
Seen again as a way to consume time, and a way to vent frustration on the rules passed earlier in the session.
Wayne has come with some energy this afternoon, but we… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
We wondered where he went when the Unicameral floor turned to lava for the Democrats. As soon as bills starting moving and the inevitable passing of LB77 (Constitutional Carry) to final round, Dip Dunker went comms silent. Don’t read his link to the Urinal Star. We took notes:
Sen. Erdman’s rules change passed 32-13 “The new rule is narrower than a proposed change considered by the Rules Committee earlier this year, which stipulated individual senators could only introduce each of the three priority motions once per day on each stage of debate.”
“We are blowing up this session,” @senatormachaela said. “This session is over and it’s on your terms because the terms were made clear to you for the last 4-6 weeks. You ignored that, you didn’t care.
Live at the Capitol this morning, Senator Steve Erdman moves to suspend the rules 💪 He says, "If you like the way things have went the first 50 days, vote against this rule change.
If you would like to get your bill to the floor for debate, vote for this rule change." #neleg
Speaker Jon Arch begins right off by saying he supports this rule change, then cites Mason's rules as to how this is perfectly acceptable. #neleg
Senator Conrad, from the fightin 46 🤡 cites the wildly fake news @JournalStarNews (@ChrisDunkerLJS) & says this is 'problematic' & 'unprecedented', using hyperbolic language and sounding crazy. She's big mad😳
30 votes needed to suspend the rules. Are there enough? We think so..
🚨 YUGE W 🚨 - LB 626, The Heartbeat Act, and LB 574 - Let Them Grow Act, have both advanced from committee 🙌🏼
Thank you to Senator Albrecht and Senator Kauth for bringing forward these respective bills.
and a very heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of Nebraskans across the state who traveled to Lincoln to give testimony, submitted testimonies online, or lobbied members of the committee. It would not have happened without We the People 🇺🇸
Start lobbying your Senators now & make sure they will be voting YES ✅ on each of these bills! It’s time for Nebraska to #SaveTheBabies and #ProtectTheChildren ❤️
