Wednesday, February 28, 2024 - Empty measures, loaded rhetoric: the GOP immigration strategy
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
Georgia Republican legislators are falling all over themselves racing to enact legislation that's likely illegal (but we won't call them "illegals") ... aiming to criminalize local law enforcement's handling of undocumented arrestees while providing no additional resources obviously needed. Also, the University of Georgia plans to spend $7.3 million for security upgrades that don't seem to address what happened to Laken Riley last week. A retired professor and outspoken Michigan voter has Donald Trump pegged - "he's pretty much an a**hole," she said - highlighting his NATO-destroying rhetoric among other shortcomings. Her "person on the street" account and Michigan's "uncommitted" Democratic primary voters get a lot of headlines, but some perspective is called for, so I compare Obama's 2012 results here with President Biden's. Last week, of all sources, The Daily Show and host Desi Lydic called into question this false notion that Nikki Haley is a "moderate." Good. Terrance Bradley's tap-dance around his text messaging Mike Roman's attorney prior to testifying came into focus Tuesday. Also, how did Ashleigh Merchant forget to bring said text messages in to produce as evidence?
