    For those of you that did not grab the remote and change your channel from a Lefty cartoon to 'The Great One,' Mark Levin on Fox and Friends. The following were his key points.

    1. President Trump has a constitutional duty to nominate a Supreme Court justice.

    2. The people in power due not, do not take an oath to Barack Hussein Obama, RBG, Hillary Rodham Clinton, AOC, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi. 

    3. The people in power take an oath to the United States Constitution. The Left wants to destroy and obliterate the greatest government document ever written.

    4. The Democratic party supports anarchist groups such as Antifa by its silence.

    5. The Democratic part endorses the destruction of America by BLM.

    Mark Levin interviews President Trump tonight at 7 pm on Fox News Channel

    Great to see the golf fans outside the fence line at the US Open not concerned about covid. I hope Cuomo does not have them arrested.

    So far so good nature. I have not noticed any police officers arresting the very 'peaceful' golf fans at the US Open. That is extraordinary good news!

    On the Ginsberg death... 

    Does anyone think if the roles were reversed the Democrats wouldn’t nominate someone and try to get the person confirmed?

    If the democrats had a senate majority and an incumbent president down in the polls with less than two months before election day?

    The same thing as Republicans of course.  Both sides are unabashedly shameful.  Some of us see that most of us don’t.

    The same thing as Republicans of course.  Both sides are unabashedly shameful.  Some of us see that most of us don’t.

    "Today we learned that Bloomberg has raised $60 million to pay the court fines for 32,000 hipanic and black Florida voters, apparently choosing them by race, who have felony convictions."

    "Mike Bloomberg, the billionaire former mayor of New York City and failed Democratic presidential candidate, has raised $16 million to pay the fines of black and Hispanic felons — only — so that they can be eligible to vote in Florida this fall." 

    "According to a report, L.A. Lakers star LeBron James is looking to pay the fines, fees, and debts of Florida’s convicted felons, so that they can vote in the 2020 election."

    That's racist. If there was ever a state where disenfranchised people of ALL races deserved the same support.... it's Florida.

    The felons have paid their debt to society. Most white felons have paid their fines and most likely will be voting Democratic. But that's not the whole story...

    In 2018, we Floridians voted for felons to get back their right to vote by almost a 3-1 margin. When the bill passed, the Republicans made a change to the bill after the fact by stating all fines/court fees must be paid 1st in order to receive voting rights back.

    That was not included in the original bill. Now the Republicans can feel the sting of their own hypocrisy.

    It should be common sense that “completing a sentence” includes paying off fines. 

    Is it considered bribery for a political party to step in and start paying off fines in the hopes of receiving votes?

    “Most white felons have paid their fines” 

    Do you have a source to back up this claim? I would like to look over the data.

    Bullshit....that is not the case. It is not a political party paying the tab. It is an individual.

    Florida citizens passed Amendment 4 in the 2018 election, giving felons the right to vote “upon completion of all terms of sentence including parole or probation,” with exceptions for murderers and sex offenders. In this year’s legislative session, lawmakers passed a law implementing that amendment that defined “all terms of sentence” to include paying all fines, fees, and restitution to victims. The fees/fines accrued interest during the felons time in prison.

    As for my white felon comment, I can't find a link for you but I know this became a big issue with white families having the financial ability to pay & black family unable to pay when the bill was altered.

    However, if an individual does it,it's an attempt to interfere with the American election process... giving expenditures in consideration of that persons vote..

    Russia isn't an American party..nevertheless, the Dems claim,, that Russia made efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election.

    By the bye..Billionaire Michael Bloomberg is a registered member of the Democrat Party..

    I'm calling wolf ticket. Google "A Florida man..." and any random date and tell me some of these cro-mags are paying their court fees and fines.

    It would be a percentage and I’m curious what the percentages are. 

    To say “white people can pay” and “black people can’t pay” is ludicrous. 

    Florida has black millionaires and white homeless people. True or false? 

    Bloomberg is raising money as a Democrat and he’s using that money to pay off the fines of felons... Because the math has been done and Dem operatives kno that felons are more likely to vote Democrat. 

    The question becomes... is this considered bribery?

    “Upon completion of all terms of sentence” 

    That would obviously include paying off fines. It’s basic common sense. You seem to be making my point for me?

    Imagine for a moment the global meltdown if Trump Jr had taken $3.5 million from the wife of the former Moscow mayor then used a portion of it to pay for hookers being human trafficked by the Russian mob. 

    Yet the MSM is ignoring Hunter Biden doing exactly that.

    Texas has more acres of forest than California, the same global climate, but zero fires. 

    Why?
