A while ago it was posted here that as a practical reality, like everyone else the far left has no idea who floods over their wide-open Southern border either. Nonetheless, they’ve obviously been assuming that the mass of thankful illegal newcomers would undoubtedly vote Democrat one way or another, giving their party millions of votes far into the future, perhaps in overwhelming numbers.

While the left’s premise certainly makes sense, an air of uncertainty still exists regarding illegal's politics whereas crossing itself isn’t free. According to an April 2019 study by the Rand Corporation,” in 2017, sources estimated the cost at somewhere between $4,000 and $10,000. The commonly accepted range now falls between $6,000 and $10,000.” Which means crossers must have had some financial success as individuals and acquired substantial sums if bringing families. Decreasing the chances of their being indigent, easily malleable sheep, voting or otherwise.

And now on Tuesday, confirmation came that crossers certainly can be other than sure-fire leftist newcomers. According to Jack Gournell @newsmax.com: “Republicans gained a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday when Mayra Flores edged out Democrat Dan Sanchez in the Texas District 34 special election.”

Flores had 51% of the vote to Sanchez's 43%, flipping an 84% Hispanic Rio Grande Valley seat red. She herself, “was born in Burgos, Tamaulipas, to migrant farmworkers. She moved to the U.S. when she was six years old and became a U.S. citizen at 14. Her family often moved yearly throughout Texas during her childhood because of her and her parents' work picking cotton, which began in Memphis, Texas, when she was 13. She graduated from South Texas College in 2019,” according to Wikipedia.

So, here we have one more example of the far-lefts lacking intellect, as they continue to predicate policy on unproven assumption, having no method or intention to reverse innumerable mistakes in judgement. But today’s case is exceptional whereas, instead of unbridled invitation to future Democrat voters, they’re actually importing Republicans who’ll some day run them out of office altogether.

Regarding what the far-left has done to the Democrat party and the nation, appearing on "The Cats Roundtable," Sunday, Newt Gingrich didn’t tell host John Catsimatidis anything really new, but put several key issues into well-formed political perspective.

“Regarding the House Jan. 6 Select Committee's first public hearing, Gingrich said, "I watched the entire two-hour committee and I thought it was Stalinist, Soviet-era, totally rigged, totally phony. It was an embarrassment. It's not a congressional hearing. It was a propaganda device, and Americans should be enraged that they're being subjected to this kind of dishonesty."

Gingrich summed up the fuel crisis, saying: “Regarding the president's energy policy, Gingrich, in paraphrasing Biden, said, "'I don't know why the price of gas has gone up.' You have to be an idiot to not have figured out that if you do everything you can to cripple the oil and gas industries, the result is going to be much higher prices. Democrats are going to have to go home and explain why you can't afford food. You can't afford gasoline. You talk about electric cars? You're going to have blackouts in California this summer because they're closing down electric-generating stations. And they don't seem to understand that if you have an electric car, you need electricity. I know this is a big, bold idea."

And then, Gingrich described the lunacy of Progressive oil policy. “Commenting on the Biden administration's importing of foreign oil rather than the focusing of efforts to produce domestically, Gingrich said, "It is not right or left; it is 'crazy' and 'not crazy' ... We just did a survey and found that if you ask people, 'Is it important to restore the America that works?' 87% of the country just wants it to work. It's not liberal or conservative. It's 'nuts' versus 'reality.' What the Biden administration is doing on almost every front is closer to insanity than to a political philosophy."

And it’s in that last paragraph that while Gingrich truly and succinctly summarizes the nation’s overriding quandary of “nuts' versus reality”, it goes beyond that. Because the dilemma‘s incurable, coming down to conceptual capability versus the far left’s mindlessness.

That’s it for today folks.
