RI Republicans must stop taking an apologetic stance
Quote:
The single best case for Allan Fung’s Republican campaign to represent Rhode Island in Congress is that the GOP is almost certain to reclaim control of the House in November. Having Democrat-only representation in the House and Senate does not serve Rhode Island well when control is apt to change hands as regularly as it has been.
So, when Speaker-of-the-House-in-Waiting Kevin McCarthy arrives in Rhode Island to tout Fung’s campaign, that reinforces Fung’s best case. Yet, mainstream Democrat-journalists like Edward Fitzpatrick of the Boston Globepresented the visit as a liability, giving over around three-quarters of their coverage to Democrats to spin about how much of a risk the visit is to Fung.
The hook for the media was McCarthy tweeting a picture of his visit, as shown in the featured image of this post. McCarthy has been touting Fung nationally because his viability as a candidate shows how far into blue territory the red wave may go, this autumn. That excitement should be fostered in Rhode Island, too.
Rhode Island Republicans should harness that excitement to inspire their voters to go out and, while going about their lives, make the case for their beliefs and normalize their party.
It doesn't matter how the Dems have been winning! Remember their comment: "Well, it WORKED, didn't it??"
ID's keep votes legal, unless you're using a false ID!
Well this is completely substantive and in no way whatsoever reeks of phony desperation...
Seth Magaziner moves to house in 2nd District

Democratic congressional candidate Seth Magaziner has moved into the district he is seeking to represent, his campaign confirmed Tuesday.
Magaziner is renting a home in the Edgewood neighborhood of Cranston, spokesperson Patricia Socarras confirmed, and will be changing his permanent address.
The Dems in DC just passed another whopping spending bill in the middle of stagflation, that will more than double the IRS' personnel. The IRS will now literally be bigger than the Pentagon, FBI, State Dept and Border control combined. Pretty much nobody in America wants that. And stats consistently show that the working class and the poor get audited five times more than anyone else.
Dems Poised To Make IRS Larger Than Pentagon, State Department, FBI, and Border Patrol Combined
Quote:
If Democrats have their way, one of the most detested federal agencies—the Internal Revenue Service—will employ more bureaucrats than the Pentagon, State Department, FBI, and Border Patrol combined.
Under the Inflation Reduction Act negotiated by Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W.Va.), the agency would receive $80 billion in funding to hire as many as 87,000 additional employees. The increase would more than double the size of the IRS workforce, which currently has 78,661 full-time staffers, according to federal data.
The additional IRS funding is integral to the Democrats' reconciliation package. A Congressional Budget Office analysis found the hiring of new IRS agents would result in more than $200 billion in additional revenue for the federal government over the next decade. More than half of that funding is specifically earmarked for "enforcement," meaning tax audits and other responsibilities such as "digital asset monitoring."
That would make the IRS one of the largest federal agencies. The Pentagon houses roughly 27,000 employees, according to the Defense Department, while a human resources fact sheet says the State Department employs just over 77,243 staff. The FBI employs approximately 35,000 people, according to the agency's website, and Customs and Border Protection says it employs 19,536 Border Patrol agents.
And one of Biden's top economic advisers, Jared Bernstein, was on FOX News today and they flat out asked him why they were adding 87,000 IRS agents. He admitted it.

So I call FAKE News on your Time article.
Whatta ya do when your popularity is sinking faster than a lead pipe in the Mystic River? Personally, I'd probably come up with something called the Inflation Reduction Act. And pray. Pray hard. I wonder what galactic space travelers of the future will make of fossilized Democratic politicians.
