Sen. Jim "Buford T." Justice Goes Rogue - Then Retreats
Timothy Birdnow
A Republican Senator from West Virginia, the honorable Buford T., er, Jim Justice, went on a rant about ICE and has been forced to backtrack, claiming now he's all on-board with Trump's repatriation policy.
So which of Justice's faces are we to believe?
Two Face told Politico that:
"Before you know it, you get people that get carried away in their job and whatever it may be, and all of a sudden, then you’re dragging people away that have lived on your street corner for 15 years, and I don’t know that we need to be doing that stuff,” he said in an interview.
"To get better, the first thing you got to do is admit you’re doing something wrong,” he went on, "and in this situation, with all that’s going on and all the stuff, we probably got to step back from it and say, ‘Maybe we’re doing something wrong here or there,’ and then adjust to that.”
Well, when people are trying to ram you with their car or are screaming in your face what are you supposed to do? Give them a stern look?
Buford, er, Jim then went on to retract his statement:
"Let me be crystal clear: I support President Trump’s immigration strategy, full stop. It’s not surprising that some are twisting my words to score political points, but there should be no confusion about where I stand,” Justice said in a press release, calling the administration’s crackdown on illegal border crossings a "tremendous achievement.”"Our brave ICE officers are doing an incredible job protecting our communities, and they must continue to focus on criminals who are here illegally and putting Americans in danger. Violent criminals, drug traffickers, gang members and others who threaten our communities should be identified, arrested and removed,” he added.
"West Virginians expect us to enforce the law, protect our communities, and keep dangerous criminals off our streets. That is exactly what I support.”
Jim Justice is up for re-election in '28 and is considering a run for Governor. He was probably trying to win the support of some of the big businesses that use illegal labor in the state. But he angered the MAGA crowd.
Meanwhile...
President Trump has slashed Muslim immigration to America by 90%. It needs to be by a hundred, and we need to deport as many as possible, but it's a start.
Wonder what Jim Justice thinks about THAT?
Neighboring Virginia ranks eighth in total Muslim population by state. I couldn't find a ranking that gave us a total per capital population but there are 17,960 Muslims in the state and while that is a small number it's a fair proportion of the population. Neighboring Virginia has 169 thousand and likely at least some of them work in West Virginia. West Virginia's population is 1.77 million.
So the good Senator probably wanted to triangulate, keeping the Immigration people including the Muzzie lovers and the Muslims themselves happy while trying not to anger the MAGA folks. Remember, West Virginia is the state that gave us KKK Byrd after all. It's purple.
Senator Justice has actually been a pretty good Senator but he apparently doesn't like the job much and wants to return as W. Virginia Governor, a post he held before running for the Senate. Success in Washington and success in the state are two different things.
I tire of the political weaklings who run for cover whenever there is any sort of flak. We see it all the time; Trump's first administration was riddled with such cowards. If the Democrats win Congress (which is what Justice is waiting to find out before making his decision to quit) then the tables will turn and a guy like Justice doesn't want the nasty fight that will come. So he's now trying to suck up to both sides.
That is the mark of a double-minded man.
And why did he give this interview to Politico anyway? When are out people going to learn that they will never do anything that will help us. Rush Limbaugh understood that, which is why he rarely gave interviews, even to Fox News. He said on his show that he learned early ont hey would take one statement out of context and that would be it. There is no fairness in "journalism". Our people still don't understand that.
That is why Trump campaigned outside the system this last time, using podcasts and other social media far more than the old legacy corporate media. And it worked - beautifully. Granted he was going up against a woman who would lose to a potted plant, but still...
Immigration is going to destroy us in years to come, as surely as it did the Roman Empire. We need to understand that. Hopefully Buford T. learned his lesson.
