The Conservative Cave

One of the things that wasn't really talked about in this election was that states had been given the green light to come after pregnant women and literally hunt them down, monitor their mail, surveil them, restrict their movements, threaten their health care providers and threaten the women with prison sentences etc.

I will never forget that they thought kids getting measles was no big deal. I will never forget the scum at DOJ who hid the Epstein files and refused to meet the victims.

Actually, I did. I expected the excuses to come a little farther down the road. That fact that the excuses are coming now shows that, even though they are brain-damaged, some of them have enough neurons firing to realize that their demonrat "saviors" are not going to "save" anything.

When Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) warned new White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller  to "lawyer up," he forgot one small detail.

He needed an actual crime.

Miller, a longtime Trump adviser, has replaced Susie Wiles in the role. After Democrats swept the midterm elections on Tuesday, Garcia is in line to take the gavel of the House Oversight Committee in January. He went on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday to preview his party's plans, and Dana Bash asked him the most obvious question imaginable.
...
"You did say that Stephen Miller needs to lawyer up," Bash said. "Why are you going to investigate him? Do you think that he committed a crime?"

It was a simple yes-or-no question, and Garcia had no answer.

"Well, what we think is that Stephen Miller is the architect of this horrific, unjust policy happening across the country in the way that we are treating folks," he told CNN. "Look, Stephen Miller called Alex Pretti, as we know, an assassin."
...
"The way that he is going around creating immigration policy that separates families, that is causing people harm, that's creating a detention process where a few large companies are profiting, the unconstitutional detention of people, the way that folks are losing their due process rights, that has to be investigated," Garcia continued.
...
"And we know that Stephen Miller has been an architect of that. And so what's happening there, what's happening in Iran, Stephen Miller is at the center of the major policy decisions that are happening in the administration," he added. "And so it does deserve oversight and investigation."

In short, Garcia's so-called crimes are policy differences. Every single item on his list boils down to Democrats disliking how the Trump administration enforces immigration law and runs foreign policy. Voters elected Trump to do exactly those things. Garcia can hate them all he wants, but hating a policy doesn't make it a felony, and he knows it.

A week after Democrat LaKesha Womack pulled off a stunning upset in North Carolina's red-leaning 14th Congressional District, she's not headed to Washington, D.C.—she's headed to a local courthouse, where she's set to appear Tuesday on felony charges for failing to return a rental car.

Womack was served a felony summons three weeks before Election Day, according to court records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon, which show that the summons was originally issued in 2020 but was returned unserved before being reissued on Oct. 11. The summons includes an order for Womack to appear at the Mecklenburg County Courthouse on Nov. 10 at 9:00 a.m. and notes that Womack could be held in contempt of court if she fails to appear.
