@yhn Yeah well blow it out your ear, I’m an independent so if what you say is true, the Democrats should just flood the primary and vote all the people they want to run against in.
English
“There are Democrats, and some hard left-leaning people who call themselves Independents, making the argument that moving to a closed primary is an attempt by party elites to disenfranchise Alabama voters.
That couldn’t be further from the truth.
As a State Executive Committee member, I am about as far from an elite or a party boss as you are going to find. I get up every morning in the dark and go to work before the chickens wake up. I punch a time clock for a living. Alabama voters deserve a process that is as fair, transparent, and democratic as possible, and that is why we support the primary process.
Right now, our primary process is not fair, transparent, or democratic because it allows people who are not part of the party to participate in selecting that party’s nominees.
The Alabama House has done its job and passed HB541, Alabama’s SAVE Act. Now it is time for the State Senate to do the same,” Clint Grantham, ALGOP Executive Committee member and Coffee County Commissioner, writes.

@SenateGOP I thank Congress for not passing a budget for more than a decade.
English
Thank a Democrat for long lines and disrupted air travel.
Thank President Trump for doing everything he can to keep airports open.

@BillCassidy You need to share this with those in Alabama, they’re about to kill the Alabama GOP.

Would you vote for J.D. Vance for president in 2028? bit.ly/482lkO2
English
@Mavperez22 Yes that is a recurring issue. Our annexation was largely opposed along racial lines and the phrase often used was it would dilute the black vote. My comment to the city councilman was his and everyone’s wasn’t dilution, it was voting period.
English
@mynbc15 No, I would support cutting funding across the board 10% and then 1% annually until deficit was reduced and debt lowered.

TELL US: Would you support cutting Social Security benefits to reduce the national deficit? bit.ly/3Q0b3f8

@daltonorwig If most those in Congress weren’t well off to begin with it might mean something. Cut congressional staff pay may make an impact.

U.S. Sen. Katie Britt wants to make sure that members of Congress don’t get paid during any time of federal government shutdown.
“I can promise you that if the staff in this building, if the men and women in this building, if members of Congress, House or Senate, weren’t getting a paycheck right now, they’d be much more eager to come to the table and to have a conversation and to figure out a pathway forward,” Britt said on the Floor of the Senate Friday.

@ALReporter When you’re a millionaire this isn’t a real issue.
English
Senator Katie Britt urged the passage of a bill Friday that would prevent members of Congress from receiving paychecks during a government shutdown.

@Mavperez22 The problem continues, no one wants to take ownership but are more than willing to place blame instead of working to serve the people as you say frequently.

@cspanwj while I’ve never agreed much with DJT I support this action due to Iran past history of funding terrorist groups. You win wars by one of two ways 1; capitulation or 2; attrition. I’m Vietnam era vet.

@Grayson270 So did he really lose? Seems to me that he was mentioned in the Oscar nominations made him relevant. Considering the legislature keeps kicking the prison can down the road, he may have won a point or two.
English
The "rule of law" is when you can import 10 million illegals overnight but need a lengthy court hearing to deport each individual one of them. No thanks, actually.
David French@DavidAFrench
He had a worse record at SCOTUS during his first term than any modern president. This term, he's not just lost on tariffs, he's lost on deploying the National Guard and on trying to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport people to a torture prison without due process. The judiciary is a functioning, independent branch of government.
English
@mynbc15 I like Chip he’s a good guy but giving the peoples vote to the governor ain’t right.
English
A bill filed by Rep. Chip Brown would change how members of the Alabama Public Service Commission are selected, from statewide election to appointment by other elected officials. bit.ly/4qkubBi

@JohnSharp99 Great piece on straight ticket voting , the dumbing down of the voters. I would like to see Rep Lands bill HB-14 (Do it Yourself Legislation) make through but both parties will oppose that.
English
@JohnSharp99 Race to the finish and the portal closes for 4 years.
English
Tomorrow's filing deadline should be interesting.

@TimBrando You guys (the media) do a good job overall in keeping interest and sharing opinions. I view you as neither god or evil just opinionated.
English
This is beautiful and while much of what he spews I take issue with, it’s impossible to dislike or stay mad at Stephen A. He’s a content creating workaholic so I get his value to the worldwide leader. That said, I gotta say this young lady should make everyone in the Sip’ PROUD!

See you soon, @stephenasmith Oxford is ready 🔥

@AlafrigginBama Definitely not, his play calling wasn’t the issue without a rushing attack he did well for a team that could only throw.
English
Interested in your thoughts on Ryan Grubb Tide fans.
Is it time to move on?
English
@TimBrando Being objective is never in most fans repertoire but deep inside they know what the team needs to do. That Bama never could build a rushing attack during the season or had that stud to do it with is something I hope the staff rectifies in the off season. Roll Tide.
English
I could do without the “…t” quote 🤦♂️guess we can call it the McAfee effect, but Saban’s accurate here. It’s a seminal moment that’s ahead today in CFB. However, there’s no getting around it Nick couldn’t summon the courage to objectively pick against the Tide. Only BRANDS need apply. 🤷♂️👇Fans and media will have to change their tune after action concludes today!

Nick Saban on Alabama-Indiana: "The amazing thing about this is how much respect we have for Indiana internally. But I go play with my golfing buddies in Alabama, and they're all on the first tee saying, 'we should kick the shit out of Indiana.'"
