Trumpers Rally For Bachenberg In Philly — The Trump flags on Welsh Road at Roosevelt Boulevard were not part of a rub-it-in rally although many happy Philadelphians seem to think so judging by the thumbs up and horn honks.
Granted there was one motorist so triggered that after an angry tirade he left his vehicle running at the red light to make obscene gestures while gyrating his hips.
It was kind of funny in a sadistic way.
The reason for the event was to show support for Bill Bachenberg.
Bachenberg is seeking to be Pennsylvania Republican Party chairman. Opposing him is State Senator Greg Rothman (R-34).
Bachenberg is backed by President Trump. Rothman is supported by the old guard establishment and new senator Dave McCormick.
The election is Feb. 8. Voting will be the members of the state Republican Committee. This consists of every county party chairman with others being elected during a municipal primary. Regional straw polls are happening now.
We got an X message from a fairly prominent Pennsylvania conservative — who we like — defending Rothman’s character. He said we shouldn’t be mean to him.
We replied that the rank and file has lost all trust in the GOP establishment. Val DiGiorgio, who held the state party chairmanship before current boss Lawrence Tabas, appeared to actually want Josh Shapiro to become governor. And that’s not even accounting for this bunch or former Montco Republican boss Mike Vereb.
Vereb held a cabinet post in the Shapiro administration before having to resign in disgrace.
Much like DiGiorgio.
Bachenberg says the party is disorganized and its leaders poorly trained. Candidates get little support or guidance, he says.
Oh, we can attest to that, right Alfe?
A The Conservative Voice interview Bachenberg gave is flying around the web: Watch it here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1155137072821203&rdid=351NRvKYYIPevTVp

Answer to yesterday’s puzzle: Hypocrisy in anything whatever may deceive the cleverest and most penetrating man, but the least wide-awake of children recognizes it, and is revolted by it, however ingeniously it may be disguised.

Ten Thousand Villages Closing Shops — We took a walk through Media, Pa., today, Jan. 23, and stopped in at Ten Thousand Villages on State Street to learn that all the retail locations will be closed by March 31.
Everything will be online.
It seems short-sighted. We suspect most purchases were impulse buys and that many used excursions to the stores as an excuse to get outside and away from virtual worlds
And they did provide local jobs.
Providing jobs is what company’s mission is, right?
Hopefully, someone i the bean -counting department wakes up.
The upside is that everything was 40 percent off.

Immigration Considerations For Donald Trump
By Bob Small
““As Commander in Chief, I have no higher responsibility than to defend our country from threats and invasions, and that is exactly what I am going to do,” said Donald Trump during his the Inauguration speech.
Trump’s Immigration Executive Orders: What to Know
In 2023, Time Magazine thought they knew where the immigration debate was going. “Trump’s defeat and stronger than projected midterm performances by Democrats suggest that anti-immigrant cynicism is misplaced and a fundamental misread of American sentiments on immigration.”
Only two of their suggestions seem worthy, finding a pathway to immigrants already in the US and seeking to ascertain immigrants with special skills. The latter opens up all kinds of debates.
This Brookings article brings up a few unique ideas. It notes that the implications of the globalization of migrants is “enormous”.They mention that the background checks for border agents take months, sometimes years”. As a recovering government worker, I believe we need to ask why? Not that Border Agents shouldn’t be vetted but should it years?!
The problem of “surge management” is also discussed. Surely, these surges in border crossing have been going on long enough that they should have a process for dealing with them.
Another article from two years ago is 4 proposed solutions to the U.S. border crisis
They mentioned the following proposed act “The Border Safety and Security Act of 2023, authored by Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), would mandate that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) block entry at the border to anyone who doesn’t have a visa. This is constantly introduced and dies. These congressional stalemates remains part of the problem.
Lastly, from mid-November Immigration Is a Mess. Here’s How to Fix It.
Some of the suggestions that are positive include “On deportations, take steps that build credibility and support, like expelling criminals and recent immigration-law violators and hiring additional immigration judges as quickly as possible to address the case backlog.
For legal immigration, it proposes enacting an improved version of the first Trump administration’s “public charge” rule that bars the immigration of those unable to support themselves ‘
Hopefully, what President Trump plans on Immigration will be allowed, so as to address these issues.
