“TEXIT” begins! State lawmaker files legislation to allow residents to decide if they want to leave the U.S. as Biden’s Marxists take over

When Donald Trump was elected president in 2016, Democrat activists in blue states like California threatened to secede but never really did much more than that — make threats.

But now that the most left-wing regime in the history of the country has stolen its way into power, one Texas lawmaker is doing a lot more than just making idle threats.

Rep. Kyle Biedermann (R) is acting.

The state representative has filed legislation offering voters the choice of whether they want to remain part of the United States or do what Great Britain did when its citizens decided last decade to leave the European Union.

Biedermann’s bill changes “Brexit” to “Texit.”

“Today, I filed HB 1359, the Texas Independence Referendum Act. For decades, the promises of America & our individual liberties have been eroding. Now is the time for the People of Texas to have the right to decide their own future,” the Republican lawmaker wrote on Twitter.

The Epoch Times has more details:

If voters say yes, then a committee would be formed to study the matter and make recommendations regarding the best way to break away from the rest of the country, including advice for how to amend the state Constitution to accommodate the proposed nation and recommendations for issues that would have to be negotiated with the U.S. government such as a common travel agreement.

“This Act simply Lets Texans Vote. This decision is too big to be monopolized solely by the power brokers in our Capitol. We need to let Texans’ voices be heard!” Biedermann said in a statement.

“Voters of all political persuasions in Texas can agree on one thing: Washington D.C. is and has been broken. Our federal government continuously fails our working families, seniors, taxpayers, veterans and small business owners. For decades, the promises of America and our individual liberties have been eroding. It is now time that the People of Texas are allowed the right to decide their own future. This is not a left or right political issue. Let Texans Vote!” he added.

Okay, but could this actually work? Didn’t the U.S. Supreme Court decide in 1869 — a post-Civil War case involving Texas, ironically — that the Constitution does not provide for states to secede from the union of states once they are admitted?

Yes, the court did make that ruling. But Biedermann says his bill is not “secession.” It establishes an orderly process by which Texans could simply withdraw and begin their own nation.

“This is not about war, this is not about actually seceding from the United States,” he told Newsmax TV earlier this month. “This is about the beginning of a process, an act, just like Brexit.

“Brexit was a vote of the people and then five years of a process” to gradually separate, he added. (Related: The future of government repression in the United States – what every American needs to know.)

This Picture Shows How Israel's COVID Battle Is Spiraling Out of Control

Even if the lockdown is extended – given the current state of enforcement and lack of law and order – no miracle can be expected that would significantly curb Israel's coronavirus infection rates in a week

Despair is neither a plan of action nor an option in a state of national crisis, but the pictures from the mass funeral in Jerusalem, amid a national coronavirus lockdown, fill one’s heart with anguish. Israel is now at the height of a social crisis rooted in a medical and political crisis – and this could cost lives, disrupt public order and perhaps even destabilize our fragile democracy.

Israel is on the edge of a lose-lose situation, while every solution is terrible in its own way. On the one hand, the extension of the lockdown alongside footage of a mass rebellion in the ultra-Orthodox autonomy in Jerusalem could lead to the brink of civil war and anarchy by those who can’t stand the injustice and weakness of Israel’s leadership.

Kamala Harris Sends Joe Manchin and Kirsten Sinema a Not-So-Subtle Message

Joe Biden is putting pressure on moderate Democrats in the Senate to follow his lead to enact his agenda. With no margin for error at all in the Senate, the president is sending a not-so-subtle message to West Virginia’s Joe Manchin and Arizona’s Kyrsten Sinema that they better toe the line or suffer the consequences.

The pressure came from Vice President Kamala Harris who made two appearances on local TV stations — one in Arizona and one in West Virginia — to deliver the message.

Fox News:

Whether the Harris interviews were designed to pressure Manchin and Sinema into backing the American Rescue Plan was not immediately clear. Following the TV appearances, White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked why the vice president chose to address local media in the two states.

“We want to make the case to the American people across the country. … This is a way to do just that,” Psaki said. She added that Harris would likely do more regional interviews in other states.

In her TV remarks, Harris explained the “urgency” of the $1.9 trillion plan that would give out an additional $1,400 in stimulus checks to Americans, expand unemployment insurance, and increase the child tax credit.

It’s significant that Harris specifically mentioned the stimulus checks to individuals. Manchin has stated he believes the checks should only go to those in need. This directly contradicts the president’s wishes and has Manchin siding with Republicans who have proposed limiting the checks to those making less than $75,000.

But Manchin has a tough sell with voters on his hands when it comes to Biden’s planned destruction of the coal industry. Harris didn’t exactly tell those thousands of miners in West Virginia to “learn to code,” but she came close.

She also said the administration wanted to work to help coal miners in West Virginia transfer their job skills.

“All of those skilled workers who are in the coal industry and transferring those skills to what we need to do in terms of dealing with reclaiming abandoned land mines,” she told WSAZ.

“What we need to do around plugging leaks from oil and gas wells; and, transferring those important skills to the work that has yet to be done that needs to get done.”

Biden isn’t going to help anyone out when it comes to fossil fuels. But he’s showing that he can go over Manchin’s head and appeal directly to West Virginia voters. Not that he has a prayer of winning the state, but he can certainly make trouble for Manchin if the senator doesn’t play ball on the new president’s most important proposal.

Los Angeles County Bans TVs at Bars Just in Time for the Super Bowl

Los Angeles County has decided that bars and restaurants can reopen for outdoor dining only starting on Friday. But there are new draconian restrictions that will kill even more businesses in the end.

One of the new restrictions involves TVs. There will be no viewing TVs in the outdoor dining areas. With the Super Bowl coming up on February 7, county health officials are worried that having the ability to watch the game at a bar would lead to a “superspreader” event for the coronavirus.

Super Bowl watch parties are an American tradition and the Super Bowl is one of the biggest days all year for bars and restaurants. Preventing watch parties may be the coup de grace for some small businesses.

Fox News:

According to the health order issued by the county, televisions or other screens that broadcast programming must remain off. The rule comes a week ahead of the Super Bowl on Feb. 7.

L.A. County Health Director Barbara Ferrer said Wednesday she’s worried that the giant sporting event, which usually drives crowds to bars and restaurants for celebrations and watch-parties, will become a “superspreader” event.

“It will be tragic if the Super Bowl becomes the Super Spreader of coronavirus,” Ferrer said, according to KTLA5. She added that residents should avoid large gatherings and refrain from throwing Super Bowl parties to prevent a situation where the virus can further spread.

I don’t think there are a lot of football fans working at the county health department.

Some restrictions are a part of the micromanagement of people’s lives and others make no sense. There is a limit of 50 percent capacity except if the business has a certificate of occupancy with a specific number of patrons allowed. That number will vary depending on the certificate.

Some of these restrictions make you shake your head in disbelief.

Eater:

Another big enforcement issue this time around will be the proper use of all personal protective equipment. As before, servers will need to wear both a face mask (can be cloth) and a face shield, and that mandate has now been extended to anyone who interacts with diners, including runners, bussers, and all front of house personnel. Given the more transmissible new strains of coronavirus going around right now, expect this one to receive particular scrutiny from visiting public health officials in the coming weeks.

The county has also said no (again) to any live entertainment (including DJs and bands), and that includes televisions — so no Super Bowl parties. Furthermore: “Restaurants may not host receptions, banquets, or other coordinated, organized or invited events or gatherings.” Oh, and no fun tableside preparations or shows like salad spinning or guacamole making, either.

I guess that means no flaming deserts.

It’s all for our own good, of course, so if you want to watch the game, you’ll have to do it at home.

Lincoln Project Denounces Co-Founder After Allegations Of Pedophilia, Sexually Provocative Messages To 21 Young Men

The Lincoln Project - a group of anti-Trumpers founded by an accused pedophile, a guy with a confederate flag cooler, and possibly the worst husband in the world - denounced the alleged pedophile on Sunday following a New York Times report detailing allegations by 21 young men.

"John Weaver led a secret life that was built on a foundation of deception at every level," wrote the Lincoln Project in a Sunday statement. "He is a predator, a liar, and an abuser. We extend our deepest sympathies to those who were targeted by his deplorable and predatory behavior."

In early January, Weaver apologized after Axios reported that he'd sent multiple "inappropriate" messages to young men. He also came out as gay, which may or may not have come as a surprise to his wife and children, and that he'd be leaving the Lincoln Project.

"While I am taking full responsibility for the inappropriate messages and conversations, I want to state clearly that the other smears being leveled at me … are categorically false and outrageous," he said.

According to the NYT, "His solicitations included sending messages to a 14-year-old, asking questions about his body while he was still in high school and then more pointed ones after he turned 18."

Mr. Weaver sent overt sexual solicitations to at least 10 of the men and, in the most explicit messages, offered professional and personal assistance in exchange for sex. He told one man he would “spoil you when we see each other,” according to a message reviewed by The New York Times. “Help you other times. Give advice, counsel, help with bills. You help me … sensually.”

…

Cole Trickle Miele was 14 when he followed Mr. Weaver on Twitter in 2015 and quickly received a direct message from him. At first, he did not think anything was amiss.

“I remember being a 14-year-old kid interested in politics and being semi-starstruck by John Weaver engaging in a conversation with me,” said Mr. Trickle Miele, now 19. At the time, he supported the Republican Party and was a fan of Mr. Kasich, the Ohio governor whom Mr. Weaver was helping prepare to join the presidential race.

But as the messages kept coming, he became uncomfortable.

In June 2018, Mr. Weaver asked, “Are you in HS still?” — referring to high school — and Mr. Trickle Miele said that he was, and that he would be 18 the next spring. “You look older,” Mr. Weaver replied. “You’ve gotten taller.”

In March 2020, when Mr. Trickle Miele was 18, Mr. Weaver wrote, “I want to come to Vegas and take you to dinner and drinks and spoil you!!,” and in a follow-up message used a term that in sexual banter refers to one’s body: “Hey my boy! resend me your stats! or I can guess! if that is easier or more fun! -New York Times

Anti-Trump PAC: Current GOP ‘No Different’ from ISIS

A recently released video clip from the left-wing MeidasTouch PAC brands Republican Party members as “traitors” unworthy of being called conservatives while describing the GOP as “no different” from the ISIS terror group.

The statements came from MeidasTouch co-founder Ben Meiselas on the PAC’s podcast in an over two-minute clip published Friday. In one tweet, the video was introduced with a message referring to the Republican Party as the “GOP terrorist party.”

Flashing pictures of Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) each with the label “traitor,” the video includes Meiselas stating “there is nothing conservative about them whatsoever.”

The video has gained nearly half a million views on Twitter alone, with the hashtag “#GOPDomesticTerrorists” trending on app as a result.

Without providing evidence, Meiselas insinuates that these Republicans support both “insurrection” and “terrorist attacks” against the US.

“It is not conservative to support insurrection and terrorist attacks against the United States of America,” he stated.

He also blamed conservatives for the hundreds of thousands of Chinese coronavirus deaths in the US.

“It is not a conservative decision when you claim to support life, but allow more than 400,000 Americans to needlessly die from Covid [coronavirus],” he said.

He then contrasted the GOP with the Democratic Party, which he deemed the true patriots.

“The Democratic Party’s the party of people who are careful, considerate, who love this country, and who are truly patriotic,” he said.

Meiselas then claimed that he sees no difference between the current GOP and the ISIS terror group known for beheadings and other cruel executions of innocents, including journalists and aid workers.

“I don’t want to call this current GOP conservative anymore,” he said. “They’re no different in my mind than ISIS.”

Meiselas reiterated the claim in another tweet.

“STOP calling them ‘Conservative’ groups! If they contribute to Hawley they are TERRORIST groups. No different from ISIS to me.”
