Since before the 2022 midterm elections, we’ve continuously heard about all the things Republican lawmakers would do if given the power. But since Kevin McCarthy took over as Speaker of the House, we’ve heard a whole lot of talking and while not seeing much action.
The latest offering doesn’t seem to be any different, though I’ll reserve judgment until later this week. Congressman James Comer made some headline-grabbing statements on Sunday, saying that the Justice Department shouldn’t arrest Hunter Biden before Wednesday because of the bombshells the House Oversight Committee would be dropping then.
He has a press conference scheduled.
Lt. General (Retired) Michael Flynn wasn’t impressed by the “threat.” As he posted on Twitter:
If you don’t have impeachment proceedings prepared for Biden this Wednesday and that is part of what you plan on exposing, then you’re telling us, the American people, what we already know.
Talk is cheap! Bring it and we will stand behind the GOP to get this done.

And while you’re at it, close our damn borders!

Will James Comer announce impeachment proceedings on Wednesday or will he, as Lt. General Flynn and I fear, tell us what we already know? If it’s the latter, the GOP should just drop a press release and leave the theatrics at home.
Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
