After this week of ugly and terrible news, this ought to put a smile on your face. My colleague Rusty Weiss already shared this gem from Democrat protesters who were stalking Vice President JD Vance when he gave a speech in LaCrosse, Wisconsin. This one is worth keeping on repeat.

Read It Here: Watch: Vance Hilariously Infuriates Protesters, Dupes Them by Driving Wrong Way Down One-Way Street
It must be something in the water. On Thursday, a Republican Women of Madison County, Alabama group hosted Rep. Dale Strong (R-AL) as their keynote speaker to discuss his journey from Madison County Commissioner to U.S. Congressman, as well as his work in Congress moving the Trump agenda forward and how the One Big Beautiful Law greatly benefits Alabama and the nation.

On July 16, the Republican Women's group announced on their Facebook Page that Strong would be speaking . Right on cue, the Soros-fueled groups Indivisible, 50501, and Madison County Democrats were activated and preparing to protest.
While peaceful protest is a part of free speech, shouting down politicians and refusing to let them speak or share information is not. One such incident occurred in Enterprise, Alabama, at a Wednesday town hall event with Republican Rep. Barry Moore, when Indivisible Baldwin County decided to heckle and harass Moore as he tried to answer questions.
Moore, a proud Trump conservative from Enterprise and member of the House Freedom Caucus, faced a rowdy group of protesters at Daphne City Hall. The crowd — many connected to progressive groups like Indivisible Baldwin County and local Democrats — booed and heckled as Moore defended President Donald Trump’s America First agenda and his own conservative record.
Despite the disruptions, Moore stood firm. He spoke to AL.com after the event:
“My constituents asked me to do town halls, so I did four across my district while Congress was out of session. We showed up, listened, and answered questions directly. Alabamians deserve leaders who are willing to have tough conversations. I’ll always answer to the folks I serve. That’s what accountability looks like," said Rep. Moore.
However, the Republican Women of Madison County event was not a town hall. Although group president Sheila Banister had originally announced the event was open to the public, because of the goings on at the Barry Moore town hall, she changed course. Banister explained to the members and registered guests later that night:
After seeing what happened with Barry Moore recently, after much discussion and prayer, we decided to close the event to only our members, local Republican members in the area, and their guests. And so that's what we decided to do. It was very last minute, but going back to our mission, our first mission is to educate our own group, and it's important that we're able to have a good, open dialogue with Congressman Strong.
The Republican Women of Madison County is a private group, and Movement Church, where the event was sponsored, is a private venue. While it may have disenfranchised a few honest citizens who simply came out to hear Strong, it did the work of derailing the Madison County Democrats and other astroturf protestors who thought they were going to make some noise and get primo news coverage that they could spin to their advantage.
When a Madison Police officer came out and announced to the waiting crowd that they would not gain entry, the looks on their faces were priceless.
Banister is my new hero. All the Democrat group could do was hold up their signs and screech, "Shame!" and "Dale NOT Strong!" It was rather laughable. Any news media that did not RSVP were also not allowed on the premises, and one local news station showed up with their camera. So, these protectors of democracy were able to tell their tales of woe to the local reporter and claim that Dale Strong was hiding behind women's skirts and shredding the Constitution. How, exactly?
My favorite part of all: The Madison Police officer tasked with manning the door schooled this brain trust on how free speech and property rights actually work, while throwing in a dose of civics to boot. If this officer decides to give up law enforcement, he should definitely run for elected office.
Only six minutes, and it's pure hilarity. Another one to put on repeat.
