Miriam 'Penny' Hopper is alive

During the GOP Debate in Milwaukee, WI, "moderators Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum asked the GOP candidates about abortion." In one of his best replies, Gov. Ron DeSantis told the story of Penny. Naturally, Gov. DeSantis' "detractors on social media were quick to dismiss Penny's story. Several accused DeSantis of lying."

That's sad but not surprising. It's sad because it's easy to see that Gov. DeSantis is one of the most honest people in politics. If he's the GOP nominee and Joe Biden is the Democrats' nominee, the biggest difference between Gov. DeSantis and Joe Biden won't be their age. It'll be that Gov. DeSantis is honest and Joe Biden is a serial plagiarist.

Another significant difference between them is that Gov. DeSantis is intelligent. Biden isn't. There's no polite or diplomatic way of putting it so I just said it. If that bothers people, write your congress critter. I won't lose a split-second of sleep over my characterization of Joe Biden.

Back to the Penny story

Steve Schmidt is a lowlife and a former GOP consultant. His claim to fame is that he co-founded The Lincoln Project. Schmidt posted on X "The story of Penny found in the pan by DeSantis is ludicrous, and obviously untrue. It should be looked into by the media." No need to, Steve. Meet Penny:

This is the moment that got this fight started:

The doubting Thomases watching that night expressed their indignation. Check this out:
Jill Filipovic, a liberal journalist, said, "I understand that politicians lie, but DeSantis's story about 'Penny,' a woman he says survived multiple abortion attempts and was rescued from a pan by her grandmother(????), is just such a bizarre and impossible story, it's stunning that any human is that gullible."
Introducing Penny

"My answer to that would be the fact that I did exist," Hopper told Fox News. "I existed at 23 weeks. There are thousands of abortion survivors around the world who have stories to tell, who have miraculous stories to tell."
This isn't rare. As Penny stated, "there are thousands of abortion survivors" that have amazing stories to tell if you're willing to listen, if you're willing to believe that God is in the miracle business. They're there waiting to be discovered.

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Image
Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
