  3671. Biden is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic. He’s attempting to undo American accountability in elections through his support of HR1. He’s attempting to undo our economic foundations with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. He’s attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. He’s attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccine mandates, and threaten job loss for noncompliance. He supports any attempt to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. He’s attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. He wants the police weakened. He is pledging to take guns away from law abiding owners. And he wants to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the Constitution becomes unrecognizable. Friday was his latest strategic ploy. By signing what seems as though might be his 500th executive order, he officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Shockingly President* Biden’s former boss had left hundreds of vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else.

  3908.  @Same1689hfrh  I feel of you need an education. Please allow me provide you with factual information, that will hopefully suppress the toxic hatred you appear to possess. This is factual information about the legislation that President Donald Trump passed into law that improved the lives if ALL American citizens, not just his people as you have ignorantly proclaimed: -PresidentTrump signed three bills to benefit Native people. One of them gives compensation to the Spokane tribe for loss of their lands in the mid-1900s, one funds Native language programs, and the third gives federal recognition to the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Montana. -President Trump finalized the creation of Space Force as our 6th Military branch. -PresidentTrump signed a law to make cruelty to animals a federal felony so that animal abusers face tougher consequences. -Violent crime has fallen every year he’s been in office after rising dramatically during the two years before he was elected. - PresidentTrump signed a bill making CBD and Hemp legal. - PresidentTrump’s EPA gave $100 million to fix the water infrastructure problem in Flint, Michigan. - Under President Trump’s leadership, in 2018 the U.S. surpassed Russia and Saudi Arabia to become the world’s largest producer of crude oil. -President Trump signed a law ending the gag orders on pharmacists that prevented them from sharing money-saving information. - PresidentTrump signed the “Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act” (FOSTA), which includes the “Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act” (SESTA) which both give law enforcement and victims new tools to fight sex trafficking. -PresidentTrump signed a bill to require airports to provide spaces for breastfeeding moms. - Under President Trump the 25% lowest-paid Americans enjoyed a 4.5% income boost in November 2019, which outpaces a 2.9% gain in earnings for the country’s highest-paid workers.

Under Trump, drug prices have seen year-over-year declines in nine of the last ten months, with a 1.1% drop as of the most recent month. -President Trump created a White House VA Hotline to help veterans and principally staffed it with veterans and direct family members of veterans. - Thanks to legislation President Trump introduced VA employees are being held accountable for poor performance, with more than 4,000 VA employees removed, demoted, and suspended so far. - President Trump issued an executive order requiring the Secretaries of Defense, Homeland Security, and Veterans Affairs to submit a joint plan to provide veterans access to access to mental health treatment as they transition to civilian life. - Because of a bill signed and championed by Trump, in 2020, most federal employees will see their pay increase by an average of 3.1% — the largest raise in more than 10 years. - PresidentTrump signed into a law up to 12 weeks of paid parental leave for millions of federal workers. - PresidentTrump administration will provide HIV prevention drugs for free to 200,000 uninsured patients per year for 11 years. -All-time record sales during the 2019 holidays were bolstered by the economy that resulted from the actions of President Trump. - PresidentTrump signed an order allowing small businesses to group together when buying insurance to get a better price. -President Trump signed the Preventing Maternal Deaths Act that provides funding for states to develop maternal mortality reviews to better understand maternal complications and identify solutions & largely focuses on reducing the higher mortality rates for Black Americans. -In 2018, President Trump signed the groundbreaking First Step Act, a criminal justice bill which enacted reforms that make our justice system fairer and help former inmates successfully return to society. The First Step Act’s reforms addressed inequities in sentencing laws that disproportionately harmed Black Americans and reformed mandatory minimums that created unfair outcomes.

  4263. If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” — Thomas Jefferson, letter to Charles Yancey, 1816.  I fully acknowledge that to many this post will smack of elitism, but the facts of the matter stand irrefutable. Ignorant, uninformed and irrational voters constitutes the single greatest threat to the success of modern democratic institutions. In a 1947 speech to the House of Commons, Winston Churchill is said to have quipped, “…democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried…” (Langworth 2009). What is it about democracy that renders it so imperfect? While numerous arguments against democracy have sprung up from time to time, nearly all criticisms have noted one great flaw in particular. As John F. Kennedy put it, “the ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.” Winston Churchill based his skepticism of democracy on the very same thing stating, “the best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” Indeed, the very founding thinkers of the democratic institution feared the ignorance of voters. Aristotle proclaimed, “it… is dangerous for men of this sort to share in the highest offices, as injustice may lead them into wrongdoing, and thoughtlessness into error." The simple fact of the matter is that “almost every democratic theorist or democratic political actor sees an informed electorate as essential to good democratic practice.” (Hochschild 2010). Yet the DNC seems to view an educated electorate as a threat to their very existence.

  4698. The Uneducated masses are the Dumb As Crap party. Here's proof- A 40 year career "Swamp Dweller, who never accomplished a thing in 40 years of politics, with an I.Q. of a hockey puck is in the WH. He wants America to mirror Minneapolis, Seattle or Chicago? Who voted for racist Identity Politics? Marxist fueled anarchy? Who voted for a DNC enabled War on America, the party who looted the U.S. Treasury like rioters? Who voted for a party that said the pandemic offered a "Great Opportunity" to advance "Progressive Ideas" and ways of governing? "We the People" need to stand up for the Nation your forefathers fought and died to bless us with. Who would have thought we'd live to see the Party of Truman and JFK morph into the Party of Marx and Engels? Time to VOTE for anyone other than a corrupt, totalitarian, America burning, cop defunding, thought policing, freedom killing, rights revoking, censorship loving, virus conning, gun grabbing, pretentious, elitist, sanctimonious, virtue signaling, culture canceling, poisonously politically correct, ideologically WOKE, student indoctrinating, White Privilege and White Supremacy hyping, safe space seeking, crying towel using, excellence and ambition murdering, America bashing, excrement slinging, hate spewing, propaganda pushing, "Fake News" generating, division sowing, society fragmenting, Balkanizing, "Victim Class" creating, Identity Politics conning, Affirmative Action promoting, race card playing, race baiting, Social Justice flim flaming, morally bankrupting, degeneracy embracing, gender inventing, male dress wearing, drug use advocating, radical feminizing, man hating, toxic masculinity smearing, female "Empowering", phony #metoo defrauding, traditional family destroying, single motherhood encouraging, baby butchering, income confiscating, wealth redistributing, tax and spending, Welfare State building, over regulating, job decimating, collectivist enslaving, Income Inequality swindling, free market detesting, Capitalism loathing, private ownership damning, private healthcare banning, Sanctuary Policy enacting, open borders enabling, criminal alien harboring, Police demonizing, Rule of Law" degrading, convict pampering, prison emptying, knee taking, Anthem besmirching, flag burning, "RESTST"-ing, Antifa and Black Lives Matter glorifying, riot inciting, private property destroying, business looting, history expunging, monument demolishing, Christian mocking, God denying, terrorist pampering, traitor pardoning, Electoral College slamming, Trump railroading, Impeachment obsessing, Deep State defending, Swamp Dwelling , Climate Change hoaxing, New World Order seeking, Socialist/Communist/Globalist or Marxist/Leftist cur out to "Fundamentally Transform" our once free Republic into a Venezuela 2.0. The only things ever created by Socialist/Communists are envy, jealousy, self entitlement, poverty deprivation, disillusionment, despair, mediocrity, servitude to the State and genocide. I refuse to VOTE FOR ANYONE out to enslave the working class to the collective or to those who would centralize wealth and power with corrupt Marxist bureaucrats salivating over the chance to run every aspect of our lives or to wrest power from the people. I refuse to VOTE for the despotic. Rational, educated people around the world look at the DNC in disfavor and in disapproval. If you can somehow feel good about supporting the lying, cheating, scum that floats to the top of the DNC cesspool. You better figure out how to help yourself, because even God can't help embiciles like you.

  4826.  @benjaminroberts2605  The Biden administration is very transparent. We can see right through their BS. The intent of my post is as follows. "When you become entitled to exercise the right of voting for public officers, let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers, “just men who will rule in the fear of God.” The preservation of government depends on the faithful discharge of this duty;  if the citizens neglect their duty and place unprincipled men in office, the government will soon be corrupted;  laws will be made, not for the public good so much as for selfish or local purposes;  corrupt or incompetent men will be appointed to execute the laws;  the public revenues will be squandered on unworthy men; and the rights of the citizens will be violated or disregarded. If a republican government fails to secure public prosperity and happiness, it must be because the citizens neglect the divine commands, and elect bad men to make and administer the laws. Noah Webster,  – 1758-1843,  If you are inclined to believe the leftist majority, puts the prosperity of Americans above their selfish endeavours for money and power, your ignorance consumed your ability to be fair, just, and make decisions that benefit the citizens of this nation. Men do not hate women, and whites do not hate blacks. The left implores you to believe that they do, for them to gain power and wealth. You obligingly lock step through your lack of morals, and education. More crimes are committed in defense of the left's racists actions (BLM riots), than by those the left labels as racists.

  5553. When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. - The Declaration of Independence.

  5598. "If I were the Devil . . . I mean, if I were the Prince of Darkness, I would of course, want to engulf the whole earth in darkness. I would have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree, so I should set about however necessary to take over the United States. I would begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: “Do as you please.” “Do as you please.” To the young, I would whisper, “The Bible is a myth.” I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what is bad is good, and what is good is “square”. In the ears of the young marrieds, I would whisper that work is debasing, that cocktail parties are good for you. I would caution them not to be extreme in religion, in patriotism, in moral conduct. And the old, I would teach to pray. I would teach them to say after me: “Our Father, which art in Washington” . . .If I were the devil, I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting so that anything else would appear dull an uninteresting. I’d threaten T.V. with dirtier movies and vice versa. And then, if I were the devil, I’d get organized. I’d infiltrate unions and urge more loafing and less work, because idle hands usually work for me. I’d peddle narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. And I’d tranquilize the rest with pills. If I were the devil, I would encourage schools to refine yound intellects but neglect to discipline emotions . . . let those run wild. I would designate an athiest to front for me before the highest courts in the land and I would get preachers to say “she’s right.” With flattery and promises of power, I could get the courts to rule what I construe as against God and in favor of pornography, and thus, I would evict God from the courthouse, and then from the school house, and then from the houses of Congress and then, in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and I would deify science because that way men would become smart enough to create super weapons but not wise enough to control them. If I were Satan, I’d make the symbol of Easter an egg, and the symbol of Christmas, a bottle. If I were the devil, I would take from those who have and I would give to those who wanted, until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And then, my police state would force everybody back to work. Then, I could separate families, putting children in uniform, women in coal mines, and objectors in slave camps. In other words, if I were Satan, I’d just keep on doing what he’s doing. -Paul Harvey, April 3, 1965

  5795. @ Kair Idon 1. Multiple violations of the emoluments clause, also called the foreign emoluments clause, is a provision of the U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 9, Paragraph 8) that generally prohibits federal officeholders from receiving any gift, payment, or other thing of value from a foreign state or its rulers, officers, or representatives. The clause provides that: No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State. 2. Evidence obtained by Committee Republicans reveals Joe Biden lied to the American people about his involvement in his family’s business schemes. The Biden family business model is built on Joe Biden’s political career and connections with Joe Biden as the ‘chairman of the board.’ Biden family members sold access for profit around the world to the detriment of American interests. If President Biden is compromised by deals with foreign adversaries and they are impacting his decision making, this is a threat to national security. The American people deserve transparency and accountability about the Biden family’s influence peddling. With the new Republican majority, Oversight Committee Republicans will continue pressing for answers to inform legislative solutions to prevent this abuse of power. -CHAIRMAN JAMES COMER 3.The existence of over 250 SAR's connected to bank accounts of the Biden family.

  5904. Everyone can sign the Convention of States Petition. Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and businesses is a recipe for disaster. What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the U.S. Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention for proposing needed amendments to the Constitution. This process does not require the consent of the federal government in Washington, DC. Support the Convention of States Project; a national effort to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress. So the process is simple, Either Congress proposes amendments or the states request that Congress call a convention for proposing amendments, but any proposed amendments would only become part of the Constitution if three-fourths of the states ratify it. Why did the framers give us two methods of proposing amendments? Because, if you remember, the Constitution is a compact between the states. If only Congress had the authority to propose amendments to the Constituiton, then the parties to the compact would be unable to rein in an out of control federal government. Does anyone really think that Congress will ever propose a balanced budget or other amendment that restricts their powers? Don't you want your state to be one of the necessary 34 states to pass a resolution calling for this kind of Article V Convention. SIGN, GET EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO SIGN!

  6301.  @moeball740  The reality is that, in the real estate world, property owners give their valuations — and then the bank, if one is seeking financing, or the insurance company, if one is seeking insurance, makes its own evaluation.  Any American who has bought a home knows that this is true.  No bank or insurance company would ever hand out money or coverage based on someone's own estimation.  In other words, no one was harmed, which explains why no bank or insurance company has sued or is joining the suit.  If, as seems likely, James cannot prove injuries, she has no case. Kurt Schlichter, a brilliant litigator and legal commentator, spelled out the problems with James's case: Heck, the case is so bad that even Bill Barr, who's become Trump's mortal enemy when it comes to disputing the American president's plenary power to declassify anything he wants, has gone on record saying that the case is a "political hit job" that constituted "gross overreach," that will end up "backfiring," because it will increase sympathy for Trump.  The suit, he concluded, is nothing more than a manifestation of Trump Derangement Syndrome.   No president in American history has paid such a high price for daring to buck the establishment.  Trump may be gone from office, but the leftists holding power across America have vowed to do everything they can to hunt him down and destroy him.  Is it appropriate for me, at this point, to remind them again that Ahab went down with the ship? You shouldn't call others stupid when your own post proves you, yourself are no Einstein. You Also need to widen your choices of news sources, and search engines. This is the information age. You will be amazed at how ignorant you are if you rely on Google, CNN, MSNBC, ABC,......

  6910. "If I were the devil … If I were the Prince of Darkness, I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness. And I’d have a third of it’s real estate, and four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn’t be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — Thee. So I’d set about however necessary to take over the United States. I’d subvert the churches first — I’d begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: ‘Do as you please.’ “To the young, I would whisper that ‘The Bible is a myth.’ I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what’s bad is good, and what’s good is ‘square.’ And the old, I would teach to pray, after me, ‘Our Father, which art in Washington…’ “And then I’d get organized. I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting, so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting. I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa. I’d pedal narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I’d tranquilize the rest with pills. “If I were the devil I’d soon have families that war with themselves, churches at war with themselves, and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was consumed. And with promises of higher ratings I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames. If I were the devil I would encourage schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions — just let those run wild, until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door. “Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing, I’d have judges promoting pornography — soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress. And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls, and church money. If I were the devil I’d make the symbols of Easter an egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle. “If I were the devil I’d take from those who have, and give to those who wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And what do you bet? I couldn’t get whole states to promote gambling as thee way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work, in Patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on TV is the way to be. And thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. In other words, if I were the devil I’d just keep right on doing on what he’s doing. Paul Harvey, good day.”

  7313. Joe And Jill Biden Raked In $13.3M Just In One Year – But They Used Tax Loopholes To Claim less than $750,000 as income. By Ben Dutka|September 29, 2020 After the New York Times story broke about President Donald Trump’s apparent tax issues, Democrats have taken advantage. They’re calling out the Commander-in-Chief for only paying a small amount in personal income tax in recent years. However, Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden might face a similar issue. According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, the Bidens found a way to keep most of the $13.3 million they earned between 2018 and 2019. The report claims the Bidens used a tax loophole, “S Corporations,” to keep their income taxes low. From Western Journal, citing the WSJ article: Joe and his wife Jill Biden funneled millions in income through a pair of S corporations they set up in Delaware as a way to circumnavigate paying Social Security and Medicare taxes. As it turns out, Joe and Jill earned about $13.3 million due largely to book royalties and speaking fees. But they reportedly only claimed $750,000 of that $13.3 million as actual income. The other 94 percent of the money went through the S corporations, which stopped it from being subject to the 15.3 percent combined Social Security and Medicare tax rate (per CNBC). Evidently, this is a common way to avoid paying a lot of taxes if you pull in a ton of money. One could argue that the book royalties and speaking fees the Bidens received should’ve been counted as a form of income. On the flip side, the Bidens aren’t the only wealthy individuals who have used S corporations to keep a hefty portion of their cash. Even so, if this story makes the rounds, Joe Biden might have to explain this situation. Both candidates will be under the microscope during debate season, after all — and now it looks like taxes will be a topic for both. Key Takeaways: Democrats go after Trump for his income taxes. But the Bidens may be guilty of something similar. The couple brought in $11 million in 2017, but only claimed $750,000 as income. The Bidens funneled the money through S Corporations to shield themselves from the Social Security and Medicare tax rate. -Ben Dutka

  7425. Aaron Lewis says it best! Am I the only one here tonight Shakin' my head and thinkin' somethin' ain't right Is it just me? Am I losin' my mind? Am I standin' on the edge of the end of time? Am I the only one? Tell me I'm not Who thinks they're takin' all the good we got And turnin' it bad, hell, I'll be damned I think I'm turnin' into my old man … Am I the only one, willin' to bleed Or take a bullet for bein' free Screamin', "What the fuck" at my TV For tellin' me, yeah, are you tellin' me? That I'm the only one, willin' to fight For my love of the red and white And the blue, burnin' on the ground Another statue comin' down in a town near you Watchin' the threads of Old Glory come undone … Am I the only one not brainwashed? Makin' my way through the land of the lost Who still gives a shit and worries 'bout his kids As they try to undo all the things he did? … Am I the only one who can't take no more Screamin', "If you don't like it, there's the fuckin' door" This ain't the freedom we've been fightin' for It was somethin' more, yeah, it was somethin' more Am I the only one, willin' to fight For my love of the red and white And the blue, burnin' on the ground Another statue comin' down in a town near you Watchin' the threads of Old Glory come undone … I'm not the only one I can't be the only one … Am I the only one who quits singin' along Every time they play a Springsteen song? … Am I the only one sittin' here Still holdin' on, holdin' back my tears For the ones who paid with the lives they gave God bless the U.S.A I'm not the only one, willin' to fight For my love of the red and white And the blue, burnin' on the ground Another statue comin' down in a town near you Watchin' the threads of Old Glory come undone … I'm not the only one I can't be the only one With help from fellow Patriots, We can win against the totalitarian leftists Nazis in our midst.

  8237. The Uneducated masses are the Dumb As Crap party. Here's proof- A 40 year career "Swamp Dweller" is in OUR WH. Who voted for a guy who never accomplished anything good in 40 years of politics, a quack with an I.Q. of a hockey puck? Who wants America to mirror Minneapolis, Seattle, LA, NY, or Chicago? Not Me! Who voted for racist Identity Politics, Marxist fueled anarchy? Who voted to allow anarchy, ignore laws, defund police, and allow criminal felons to walk our streets without punishment? Who voted for a Party who loots the U.S. Treasury like rioters? Who voted for a Party that said the pandemic offered a "Great Opportunity" to advance "Progressive Ideas" and ways of governing? To reimagine governing as it relates to Capitalism? "We the People" NEED to stand up for the Nation your forefathers fought and died to bless us with. Who would have thought we'd live to see the Party of Truman and JFK morph into the Party of Marx and Engels? Time to VOTE for anyone other than a corrupt, totalitarian, America burning, cop defunding, thought policing, freedom killing, rights revoking, censorship loving, virus conning, gun grabbing, pretentious, elitist, sanctimonious, virtue signaling, culture canceling, poisonously politically correct, ideologically WOKE, student indoctrinating, White Privilege and White Supremacy hyping, safe space seeking, crying towel using, excellence and ambition murdering, America bashing, Kavanaugh trashing, conservative demonizing, excrement slinging, hate spewing, propaganda pushing, "Fake News" generating, division sowing, society fragmenting, Balkanizing, "Victim Class" creating, Identity Politics conning, Affirmative Action promoting, race card playing, reparations fleecing, race baiting, Social Justice flim flaming, morally bankrupting, degeneracy embracing, gender inventing, male dress wearing, drug use advocating, radical feminizing, man hating, toxic masculinity smearing, female "Empowering", phony #metoo defrauding, traditional family destroying, single motherhood encouraging, baby butchering, income confiscating, wealth redistributing, tax and spending, Welfare State building, over regulating, job decimating, collectivist enslaving, Income Inequality swindling, free market detesting, Capitalism loathing, private ownership damning, private healthcare banning, Sanctuary Policy enacting, open borders enabling, criminal alien harboring, Police demonizing, Rule of Law" degrading, convict pampering, prison emptying, knee taking, Anthem besmirching, flag burning, "RESTST"-ing, Antifa and Black Lives Matter glorifying, riot inciting, private property destroying, business looting, history expunging, monument demolishing, Christian mocking, God denying, terrorist pampering, Electoral College slamming, Russia Collusion manufacturing, Ukraine duping, Deep State defending, Swamp Dwelling , pay for playing, Climate Change hoaxing, New World Order seeking, Socialist/Communist/Globalist or Marxist/Leftist cur out to "Fundamentally Transform" our once free Republic in the former U.S.S.R.. The only things ever created by Socialist/Communists are envy, jealousy, self entitlement, poverty deprivation, disillusionment, despair, mediocrity, servitude to the State and genocide. I refuse to VOTE FOR ANYONE out to enslave the working class to the collective or to those who would centralize wealth and power with corrupt Marxist bureaucrats salivating over the chance to run every aspect of our lives or to wrest power from the people. I refuse to VOTE for the despotic. Rational, educated people around the world look at the DNC in disfavor and in disapproval. If you can somehow feel good about supporting the lying, cheating, scum that floats to the top of the DNC cesspool. You better figure out how to help yourself, because even God can't help embiciles like you.

  8345.  @youllfloat2pennywise344  I object to the view that I should be judged by the color of my skin. I cannot tolerate a political party that not only judges me by the color of my skin, but encourages and instructs their followers, to prejudge others by theirs. By viewing every aspect of history, and every facet of society through the lens of skin color and race, we are desecrating the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and utterly violating the movement for which such civil rights leaders believed, fought, and died.  I object to the charge of systemic racism in this country. Systemic racism, properly understood, is segregated schools and separate lunch counters. It is the interning of Japanese and the exterminating of Jews. Systemic racism is unequivocally not a small number of isolated incidences over a period of decades. We have not had systemic racism against Blacks in this country since the civil rights reforms of the 1960s, a period of more than 50 years. To state otherwise is a flat-out misrepresentation of our country’s history and adds no understanding to any of today’s societal issues. If anything, longstanding and widespread policies such as affirmative action, point in precisely the opposite direction. People make poor choices. Blaming racism, and systematic racism for these poor choices, is an excuse to for not accepting responsibility for their own actions. Did the Caucasians, force the majority of blacks into poor performance in education? Or drug use and addictions? Or the choice of too many young black men to carry out criminal actions, which led them to prison? How about welfare fraud, did caucasians force blacks to commit welfare fraud? Or perhaps you believe the caucasians forced so many blacks into single parenthood? Every individuals life is shaped and guided by the choices they make. Want a better life? Make better choices!

  8497.  @Extracted74  Really? Truthfully? Nah, stop lying! Here are some of the most telling failures of socialism. One, socialism has never succeeded anywhere, including the Marxism-Leninism of the Soviet Union, the National Socialism of Nazi Germany, the Maoism of Communist China, the Chavez-Maduro socialism of Venezuela. It has never come close anywhere to Marx’s ideal of a classless society. Two, Karl Marx has been wrong about nearly everything he predicted. The nation-state has not withered away. Capitalism didn’t break down as a result of the Industrial Revolution. Workers haven’t become revolutionaries but capitalists. The middle class hasn’t disappeared; indeed, it has expanded exponentially around the world (see the above about the sharp decline in global poverty). Marx’s attempt to use Hegel to create a “scientific socialism” has been an abject failure. Three, socialism denies the existence of an essential human trait – human nature. Marx borrowed from the Enlightenment to declare that human nature was malleable, not constant. Christian theology with its idea of a fixed God-given nature infuriated Marx. The socialist state established by Lenin tried for seven decades to create an entirely new human being – Soviet Man. In December 1991, Mikhail Gorbachev gave up trying and dissolved the world’s most spectacular failure in human engineering. Four, socialism depends not upon the will of the people but on the dictatorship of the Party to remain in power. In “The God That Failed,” six famous Western intellectuals describe their journey into socialism and their exit when they encountered the gigantic gap between their vision of a socialist utopia and the totalitarian reality of the socialist state. After visiting the Soviet Union, the French Nobel Laureate writer Andre Gide said: “I doubt where in any country in the world – not even in Hitler’s Germany – have the mind and spirit ever been less free, more bent, more terrorized and indeed vassalized than in the Soviet Union.”

  8500. If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” — Thomas Jefferson, letter to Charles Yancey, 1816.  I fully acknowledge that to many this post will smack of elitism, but the facts of the matter stand irrefutable. Ignorant, uninformed and irrational voters constitutes the single greatest threat to the success of modern democratic institutions. In a 1947 speech to the House of Commons, Winston Churchill is said to have quipped, “…democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried…” (Langworth 2009). What is it about democracy that renders it so imperfect? While numerous arguments against democracy have sprung up from time to time, nearly all criticisms have noted one great flaw in particular. As John F. Kennedy put it, “the ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.” Winston Churchill based his skepticism of democracy on the very same thing stating, “the best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” Indeed, the very founding thinkers of the democratic institution feared the ignorance of voters. Aristotle proclaimed, “it… is dangerous for men of this sort to share in the highest offices, as injustice may lead them into wrongdoing, and thoughtlessness into error." The simple fact of the matter is that “almost every democratic theorist or democratic political actor sees an informed electorate as essential to good democratic practice. Except the DNC, they view an informed electorate as a threat to their existence, and rightly so.

  8521. Income data published by the IRS clearly show that on average all income brackets benefited substantially from the TCJA tax reform law, with the biggest beneficiaries being working and middle-income filers, not the top 1 percent, as so many Democrats have argued. A careful analysis of the IRS tax data, one that includes the effects of tax credits and other reforms to the tax code, shows that filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $15,000 to $50,000 enjoyed an average tax cut of 16 percent to 26 percent in 2018, the first year Republicans’ Tax Cuts and Jobs Act went into effect and the most recent year for which data is available. Filers who earned $50,000 to $100,000 received a tax break of about 15 percent to 17 percent, and those earning $100,000 to $500,000 in adjusted gross income saw their personal income taxes cut by around 11 percent to 13 percent. By comparison, no income group with an AGI of at least $500,000 received an average tax cut exceeding 9 percent, and the average tax cut for brackets starting at $1 million was less than 6 percent. That means most middle-income and working-class earners enjoyed a tax cut that was at least double the size of tax cuts received by households earning $1 million or more. What’s more, IRS data shows earners in higher income brackets contributed a bigger slice of the total income tax revenue pie following the passage of the tax reform law than they had in the previous year. In fact, every income bracket with filers earning $200,000 or more increased its tax burden in 2018 compared to 2017, and every income bracket with a top limit lower than $200,000 paid a smaller proportion of the total personal tax revenue collected. That means that Republicans’ tax reform law resulted in the tax code becoming slightly more progressive — the exact opposite of what Democrats have claimed over the past four years. The IRS data further shows that the tax reform law — which included a variety of business tax cuts, including a large reduction in the corporate income tax rate — spurred economic mobility. Every income bracket with a top level lower than $25,000 experienced a reduction in its number of filers, and every income bracket above $25,000 increased in size, with the biggest gains occurring in the brackets with a floor of at least $100,000. The fact is, Republicans’ 2017 tax reform law did exactly what was promised: It lowered taxes for all income groups, provided the greatest benefits for middle-income households, and spurred economic growth that helped reduce poverty and improve prosperity. It would be a grave mistake for Democrats to eliminate key parts of this important legislation.- The Hill.

  8636. During his high school years, he led both his football and track teams to state championships while also graduating top of his class at Johnson County High School. Herschel Walker is considered by many to be the greatest college football player of all time. As a freshman at the University of Georgia, Walker helped the Bulldogs win the 1980 national championship. He earned consensus All-American honors three consecutive years in both football and track & field, set 10 NCAA and 15 SEC records, and capped a sensational college career by winning the 1982 Heisman Trophy. In 1999, he was voted into the College Football Hall of Fame and was selected as the greatest player in college football in the last half-century. After three spectacular years at UGA, Walker gave up his final year of collegiate eligibility to play professional football. During his 15-year pro-football career in the USFL and NFL, Walker played for the New Jersey Generals, Dallas Cowboys, Minnesota Vikings, Philadelphia Eagles, and New York Giants, setting the current single-season pro-football rushing record of 2,411 yards, leading the NFL in rushing, gaining more total yards than anyone in professional football history, and receiving numerous All-Pro and Pro-Bowl honors. Additionally, Walker broke a world record in the 60-yard dash, represented the United States in the 1992 Winter Olympics in bobsledding, earned a fifth-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, and went undefeated as a Mixed Martial Arts fighter. Herschel has also won the Celebrity Cook-Off on the Food Network To encourage a healthy lifestyle for all Americans, Herschel visited Capitol Hill multiple times to meet with members of Congress and discuss the importance of fitness and nutrition. Walker’s unmatched work ethic extends far beyond athletics. He is also the successful owner and CEO of two businesses in the food and service industry, H. Walker Enterprises, LLC and Renaissance Man Food Services, LLC. In true Herschel fashion, his brands have become successful food service lines to major hotel chains, the United States military, schools, concessions, and retail chains.

  9039. When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. - The Declaration of Independence

  9896. Biden and the Left, is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative Republic. By attempting to undo American accountability in elections through their support of HR1. They are attempting to undo our economic foundations, with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. They are attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. By attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccination mandates, and job loss for noncompliance. By supporting any attempt to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. They are attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. The left wants the police weakened, and are pledging to take guns away from law abiding owners. Biden wants to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the Constitution becomes unrecognizable and ineffective. Biden's latest strategic ploy- signing an executive order, he officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Shockingly President* Biden’s former boss had left hundreds of vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else. Except a portion of our citizenry willing to support, defend, and throw away their Constitutional Rights to appease an oppressive tyrant, and oppressive political party. Our Founding Fathers weep....

  9974. 25th Amendment, Section 4 - Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President. Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

  10767.  @eriklapidus5868  AOC, Rashida Tlaib leap to defense of Ilhan Omar after her ‘some people did something’ 9/11 remarks. (Fox News, April 11, 2019) “Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., have both jumped to the defense of their under fire fellow freshman Democrat Ilhan Omar, saying Thursday her comment in reference to 9/11 has been wildly taken out of context. “Omar, D-Minn., is facing backlash after a speech at a Muslim rights group’s event in which she described the September 11, 2001, terror attacks as “some people did something”. “Tlaib, when asked by MSNBC if Omar should have rethought her words, said that she had been taken out of context. “They do that all the time, especially women of color, they take our words out of context because they’re afraid because we speak truth, we speak truth to power,” Tlaib said. Ocasio-Cortez said later Thursday: “To elicit such an image for such a transparently and politically motivated attack on Ilhan… we are getting to the level where this is an incitement of violence against progressive women of color, and if they can’t figure out how to get it back to policy, we need to call it out for what it is because this is not normal. And, this is not a normal level of political debate or rhetoric, as wild as it can get sometimes. This is something beyond what is normal.” ‘Rep. Rashida Tlaib “FEARS” Americans She Was Elected To Serve’ (Canada Free Press, April 27,2019) “It is not Americans who should be feared but rather how radical, pro-Hezbollah, anti-Israel activists like Rashida Tlaib ever got elected to the Congress of the United States of America.” Meanwhile, Obama’s ‘Fundamental Transformation of America’ lives on in the Deep State, represented by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib in a never-ending waking nightmare. https://canadafreepress.com/article/omar-tlaib-and-aoc-carrying-on-obamas-poisonous-hate-america-legacy

  11146.  @johnnyisrael5586  The Republican Party, was founded in 1848 with the abolition of slavery as its core mission. Almost immediately after its second presidential candidate, Abraham Lincoln, won the 1860 election, Democrat-controlled southern states seceded on the assumption that Lincoln would destroy their slave-based economies. Once the Civil War ended, the newly freed slaves as expected flocked to the Republican Party, but Democrat control of the South from Reconstruction until the Civil Rights Era was near total.  In 1960, Democrats held EVERY Senate seat south of the Mason Dixon line.  Meaning, ALL of the Senate seats in the 13 states that made up the Confederacy a century earlier. Democrats also held a staggering 117-8 advantage in the House of Representatives.  The Democratic Party was so strong in the south that those 117 House members made up a full 41% of Democrats' 283-153 advantage in the Chamber. Likewise, throughout the late 1950s and early 1960s, Democratic governors and overwhelmingly Democratic State Legislatures controlled the South, which steadfastly opposed the push for civil rights. In contrast, Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower, openly praised school desegregation in the Brown v. Board of Education decision and sent federalized Arkansas National Guard troops to Little Rock to protect nine black students after Democratic Governor Orval Faubus threatened to keep them out of a previously all-white high school. The ignorance you encompass, is extreme to believe the DNC has your best interest at heart. In fact, they only care about your allegiance, not you, not your family, not your ability to succeed. Ignorance is the DumbAzzCraps foot hold on America. It is also the DNC boot on your neck, holding you down. OMG, read, learn, shake off the ignorance, not for me, but for yourself.

  11403.  @johnsnow5955  How Rich, John. Your party is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic, and the US economy. Through egregious spending, massive tax hikes, out of control inflation, they are bankrupting this nation, with the lowest earners being hurt most egregiously. They are attempting to undo our economic foundations, with massive printing(read that devaluing) of our currency. By attempting to undo American accountability in elections through their support of HR1. They are attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. He’s attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccine mandates, and noncompliance job losses. They support any attempt to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. They are attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. They want the police weakened. They pledge to take guns away from law abiding owners. They want to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the Constitution becomes diluted and unrecognizable. Their latest strategic ploy. By signing what seems as though might be Biden's 500th executive order, he officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Obama had left hundreds of vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else. Other than moronic sheep who are so ignorant they are unable to comprehend the gravity of the current situation, and the impending doom that will follow if they are allowed to continue.

  11792.  @heckenprunzer  Joe Biden, having already presided on the worst economic recovery since World War II as Barack Obama’s vice president, could oversee one even worse. But unlike the fundamentally crippled economy Obama inherited, Biden came into office with every economic feature in his favor. Thanks to Operation Warp Speed, his White House inherited the most remarkable vaccine production process in history. Because the coronavirus recession was created by preventive lockdowns and demand shocks, not underlying failures of the economy, the country seemed keen to roar back to our pre-pandemic prosperity of unusually tight labor markets and steady natural wage growth of early 2020. Love President Trump, or hate him, there is no denying that he oversaw the obliteration of our concept of what constituted FULL employment. And yet, Biden seems to be blowing the lead. After nearly a year of the economy regaining more than half of the job losses accrued during the April 2020 apex of the coronavirus recession, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported just a quarter-million new jobs created in contrast to the 1 million jobs anticipated by experts, rendering it the single worst jobs report in the nation’s history. The unemployment rate actually increased for the first time since last year, from 6% in March to 6.1%. Even worse, inflation seems on the rise in a way it hasn’t been in decades at the same time plateauing labor force participation might kill our economic output. For starters, an unprecedented amount of cash has been injected into an economy already shouldering nearly $30 trillion in national debt. For this, Biden hardly bears all the blame. Although Trump’s coronavirus spending package was necessitated by the lockdowns. Biden passed another $1.9 trillion grab bag of left-wing goodies under the guise of pandemic relief, and now he’s pushing for a further $4 trillion financed solely by the Federal Reserve, risking it all on a full-year commitment to keep interest rates near zero. Biden, even before the election, elevated proponents of Modern Monetary Theory like Stephanie Kelton to key positions on his economic policy task force. When sound voices in the room like Biden’s Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warn about the Fed’s dangerous dovishness, she has been quickly browbeaten into publicly reversing course. So we have an explosion of cash into circulation, nonexistent interest rates disincentivizing spending, and closures of schools and businesses shrinking the labor force. On top of that, we have Biden’s signature policy failure: the federal government’s expanded unemployment benefits incentivizing people from returning to work. Despite the White House and its media agents insisting that businesses are to blame for the employment shortage, even Biden has admitted that a change has to be made. "We're going to make it clear that anyone collecting unemployment, who was offered a suitable job, must take the job or lose their unemployment benefits,” Biden said of his hopes to fix the extended Unemployment Insurance benefits during Monday remarks. But Congress has already authorized the extra unemployment spending through September, and despite a lifesaving vaccination campaign rendering a return to normalcy safe, the damage is already done. Workers may refuse to return behind the bar or to the driver's seats of Ubers because they’ll make more in UI, but the demand for service won’t dissipate until autumn. Instead, big businesses such as McDonald’s and Amazon will continue to automate future jobs out of existence and small businesses will be crushed. Twelve years ago, Obama could rightly claim he inherited a mess. Biden needs to admit he's made one.

  11826.  @fredataylor8936  Rational Americans, all agree with President Trump's border policy, and economic successes. "Unchecked, illegal immigrants are entering our country at record rates. Joe Biden’s do-nothing policies give millions of aliens a free pass to break our laws, traffic drugs into our communities, contribute to rising crime and take jobs away from hardworking Americans. Biden’s policies have created a crisis out of thin air, after four years of President Trump’s successful efforts to get our border under control. As Ohio’s next senator, I will oppose every attempt by the Democrats to grant amnesty, so that our communities are safe places to live and work and raise a family. I’ll also work to finish construction of a border wall, and double the number of border agents in our country. Border security is not rocket science—we simply need the political will and the resources to do it. We also must reform our legal immigration system. In no other developed country do we allow migration primarily based on family relations rather than skills. Millions of people want to come here, and we should only allow them if they contribute something meaningful to our country. Importantly, our ability to assimilate immigrants successfully—something our country should be proud of—is contingent on American leadership that loves this country. Forty years ago, new American immigrants came to a country where bipartisan leaders delivered a simple message: this great country is now your own, and you have a duty to help build it. Today, those same leaders deliver a different message: this is an evil and racist country, and you owe nothing to it. Because of this, our capacity to assimilate the next generation of immigrants is limited, and our legal immigration system should account for this fact by changing who we let in and reducing the total numbers." -JD Vance

  12054. The DNC has no desire to make it easier for people to vote. They want to usurp states rights, therefore they can control state and federal elections. This is unhealthy, and is against the design our Founding fathers put in place to guarantee free and fair elections. Socialism is an economic system in which the factors of production are valued in relation to their usefulness to people. Socialists take into account both individual needs and greater social needs. They allocate resources using central planning, as in a command economy. Examples of greater social needs include transportation, defense, education, health care, and the preservation of natural resources. Some also define the common good as caring for those who can't directly contribute to production. Examples include the elderly, children, and their caretakers.  In a socialist society, everyone receives a share of the production based on how much each has contributed. This system motivates them to work long hours if they want to receive more. Workers receive their share of production after a percentage has been deducted for the common good. How Socialism Works In theory and in practice, the actual workings of a socialist system can come in any number of forms. Fundamentally, the core question comes down to whether the levers of production are controlled by a central authority like the government, the markets, or some combination of the two. Ownership should still be in the hands of the people, but the practical outworking of this will vary depending on what apparatus is driving production. Socialism is an economic system which has at least 8 types or degrees of freedom usurpations, and oppression is always present. Every type, and degree of Socialism has failed in every country, where it has been implemented.

Section 4, - Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President. Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

  12287.  @benjaminroberts2605  I my self would never commit a home invasion. I could not hold a gun to a pregnant woman's head, then her belly, threatening to kill her and the child she is carrying. I am a decent person. I believe all people have the right to safety in their own home. I also believe that everyone should be have the same rights. That being said, Geo. Floyd did hold a gun to a pregnant woman's head and belly, threatening to kill her and the child she is carrying, after violently breaking into her home, during a home invasion, beating her savagely. George Floyd was not a decent person. I do not think I am better than other races. I do however feel I am a better person than criminals, and drug addicts, that violently attack innocent victims, to get drugs or money to by drugs. BTW, George Floyd was not murdered by strangulation as the prosecution claims. George Floyds blood oxygen saturation was 98% at the time of his death. Geo. Floyd died of heart failure because his heart was enlarged and surrounded by water (cardiac edema).That in itself proves that his death was not murder. He was a very unhealthy, unhinged individual, who used too many drugs, and he really did more self inflicted damage to his own body, than the arresting officers did. Burning down a city, by violent angry protesters will not fix anything. Accepting the verdict, regardless of whichever the jury decides, is how rational, respectful, educated people would react. So, your assumptions about me are wrong. I am not a racist. I am not a sexist. I do not feel, or act, superior to anyone, except those who engage willingly in crimes against humanity. I just wish you could rationally reread my posts, because you are BMW about things that do not appear in the text of my posts. I would also like to point out that you are the first poster on this thread that somehow equated statehood for DC as a racial issue. You were the first to go there, and like a dog whistle others followed suit. Aren't you forgetting what party the southern racists politicians, you refer to are from? They were Democrats. Republicans throughout the history of this nation, have fought for, and voted in favor of abolishing slavery. The Republicans have always fought for, and voted in favor of, equal rights, civil rights, equal employment opportunity, fair housing, equal education opportunity, prison reforms, allocating money to help ex convicts, succeed and lessen recidivism and have fought to end racism each and every time it has reared it's ugly head. Projection by the liberals is a pathetic attempt to fool the less educated to vote in favor of cognitively impaired clown, who is passing legislation at record speed to promoted socialism, and shackle all Americans in the chains of high taxes. Socialism ALWAYS results in high poverty, oppression, starvation, and death. I suggest you invest in your education.

  12617. @Abe Miyamoto Obama created massive losses of jobs, more than doubled welfare dependency, and lowered education standards. Obama is more to blame than any other US President.There’s no denying the U.S. workforce contracted significantly under Obama, and that is not okay. Dips in the headline unemployment rate, leaving the number of Americans out of the workforce at an eye-popping 95 million, while vast numbers of Americans departed the labor force for good and dropped off the government’s reports, were a staple of the Obama era. Most “improvements” in the unemployment rate during his re-election campaign were a result of people giving up on looking for work, which made them invisible to the Bureau of Labor Statistics within a few months.Poverty: Poverty unquestionably grew worse under Barack Obama, leaving his apologists to hilariously claim that the poverty rate doesn’t look so bad after you throw in the skyrocketing value of the welfare benefits that grew explosively under his administration. How can anyone wave off a 37 million increase in the number of food stamp recipients, at a cost to taxpayers exceeding $16 billion, at a time when employment was supposedly getting better? Race Relations: One of the outgoing President’s most surreal claims is that race relations improvemed. Polls show most Americans think race relations had worsened— in fact, the percentage that finds them poor today is almost equal to the percentage that found them in good shape when Obama took office. Some of this is due to factors beyond the President’s control, but every time Obama got involved directly, he had a knack for ratcheting up tensions and resentments. It is, to put it mildly, a tremendous disappointment that racial tensions grew worse under the President who was supposed to be a historic healer, and that black Americans seem so widely disappointed with their situation as 2017 dawns. (And that’s not just a matter of opinion — there are hard numbers on black employment, median income, home ownership, and welfare dependency to back up their sense of dismay.) Government Debt:  He leaves office with a national debt of $19.7 trillion, coming just shy of doubling the debt all by himself; and all we got for it was a mediocre economy, dwindling workforce, and sky-high welfare dependency. And the annual deficit got much worse in his last year, hitting $587 billion in the fiscal year 2016, nuking Obama’s laughable claim to be a deficit-fighter. Education: No one seems to want to talk about this, but the performance of our school system ranged from stalled-out to getting worse throughout Obama’s presidency, even as he enjoyed generous support from the teachers’ unions. We’re constantly told the “skills gap” drives chronic high unemployment, both in general and for specific groups, and better education is the answer. We’re always told we must import more skilled, and more determined, workers to do the jobs Americans can’t or won’t do. This is a damning indictment of our education system, which no stack of carefully-worded government reports from the Department of Education can paper over.

  12689. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  12807.  @vincentdemidio7902  President Trump is not anthropic. In fact he worked extremely hard to make life better for everyone, in the 🌎, DumbAzzCraps included, and loves to engage with people. President Trump loves people, and accomplished more than the five prior administrations, to legislate peace 🌎 wide. You question the religious beliefs of everyone on this thread? Yet, your party eliminated God from schools, courthouses, and are offended by public prayer. Your party advocates for abortion. Proverbs 6: 16-18 explain God's views on abortion. 16- There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: 17- haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood ( the very definition of abortion ). Furthermore, Poverbs 6: 18 & 19 states God views on detesting the basis of the liberal MSM, and the Majority party beliefs and actions in Congress; -a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community ( this explains your contempt of, and why your cult villianized President Trump). The DNC indoctrinated cult embraces, all that is evil, and are extreme hypocrites, in both your words and actions. Freedom is the right not to be enslaved by a party that despises anyone who's views are different than what you are told to think, feel, and see, by the DNC cult. Freedom is not bolstered by diluting The United States Constitution, and Bill of Rights, for which the DNC cult is on record for the advocation of ( DNC's cult attacking 2nd Amendment Rights, to disarm US citizens to weaken their defense against this tyrannical administration). Liberty- "But a constitution of government once changed from freedom can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.”—John Adams, again your hypocrisy is quite evident. Albeit, you are blind to the evilness your party embraces. I am saddened by the ignorance, stupidity, and hypocrisy your cult blindly embraces, and your desired ruination of the greatest nation on 🌎.

  12914. @Finch Kraft Connecting a political view to increased levels of mental illness, and increased criminal behavior: 1. Urban areas are vastly democrat strongholds. 2. Urban settings can affect people in two key ways: increasing stimuli, and stripping away of protective factors. 3. People who live in the city experience an increased stimulus level: density, crowding, noise, smells, sights, disarray, pollution and intensity of other inputs. Every part of the urban environment is deliberately designed to assert meanings and messages. These stimuli trigger action and thought on a latent level of awareness, and become more potent as an inability to ‘cope’ sets in. This can have the effect of overload, increasing the body's baseline levels of arousal, stress, and preparedness, but also driving people to seek relief: quiet, private spaces; over time this urge may evolve into social isolation associated with depression and anxiety, and also forms the basis of the ECOLOGICAL hypothesis of schizophrenia. 4. Erosion of protective factors: People who live in the city may find that they have less access to the factors that are protective for good mental health than those in rural areas. For example, they may have diminished access to nature, fewer opportunities to integrate exercise as part of their daily routines, and reduced leisure time as increased time is spent at work and commuting around the city. People may find themselves feeling unsafe, having less privacy, and even less sleep, due to factors like crowding, light, noise and stress. Rural to urban migration often sees people leaving behind their strong social networks of friends and family, and it takes time to develop similarly supportive social capital in the city. This may particularly be the case as urban dwellers may be reluctant to engage in social interactions, to avoid overstimulation, due to safety concerns, or because of the reduced likelihood of future relationships with each individual they encounter.  As these protective factors erode, people become more vulnerable to developing mental health problems. These facts support my previous honest, factual statements. Your refusal to accept facts BC they hurt your "feelings" is also a trait encompassed by leftists.

  13221.  @JohnDoe-rk9bx  Logan's Run was released in the 1970's. I my Dad and Mom were born in 1976, and 1977 respectfully. I wasn't born until 1999. Grandma loves that movie for some reason. Too much irrational, idiocy for my liking, though. IMO, Hollyweird is a pit of ultra rich liberals who use their fame to sway public opinions irrationally left of center. So I am not a fan, of that type of idiocy. Freedom cities, will not be domed havens of social hierarchy. Imagine cities with tough on crime policies from day one of their inception. Older cities are past the point of salvation. Crime is out of control. Racism, though mostly dreamed up by thin skinned individuals, with a hatred of police, is not nearly as bad as the media and democrats portray it to be. As a black man, I can honestly say racism has not affected me, or my life significantly. I am not your average black man though. I am educated. I never received government assistance, of any sort in my life. I am a business owner, and life is good. I wish you and your family all the best, in all your endeavors. Trust more in God, than in politics, and you will be better for it. I believe WWIII can be avoided, as can social collapse, if FJB and his party are removed from power. President Trump is the best President in my lifetime. His policies worked. He kept the peace here and across the globe for four years. Please don't believe the media and Democrat idiocy and untruths about him. He only wants what will benefit this nation. He has the intelligence, fortitude, and strength to deliver on his promises. He has already done this once, while Democrats put him through hell, and he still delivered amazing results.

  13246.  @sharonsmelser2491  As I have suffered through, reading your highly opinionated, yet unfactual postings, I would like to remind you that you do not have the right to ask me, nor I the inclination to be silenced, merely because of your inability to see both sides of a debate. The mention of parties by name is required to pinpoint the fallacy of your statements, that is why I use them. Ma'am, I am not creating a straw man, you are. The myth of Nixon's Southern Strategy has been debunked multiple times. There is no factual support, to lend any substance to this myth. Merely, the Democrats(progressives) whitewashing (no pun intended) their racist history. Pretending their ugly racism, sexism, and hate is owned by the Conservative Republican party today. Never happened, you can believe in fairy tales if you so choose. Facts are stubborn, and disprove this outright lie. For instance, how many racist Dixiecrats did Nixon win for the GOP? Turns out, virtually none. Among the racist Dixiecrats, Strom Thurmond of South Carolina was the sole senator to defect to the Republicans — and he did this long before Nixon’s time. Only one Dixiecrat congressman, Albert Watson of SC, switched to the GOP. The rest, more than 200 Dixiecrat senators, congressmen, governors and high elected officials, all stayed in the Democratic Party, keeping their racism, sexism, and bias intact. So.... You can take your BS off the table. BC, I am tired of your untruths, half truths, and out right lies. I will not be silenced, especially when the truth needs spoken, and heard. If that offends you, mute me.

  13260. Joe Biden, presided on the worst economic recovery since World War II, as VP. could oversee one even worse. Biden came into office with every economic feature in his favor. Thanks to Operation Warp Speed, his White House inherited the most remarkable vaccine production process in history. Because the coronavirus recession was created by preventive lockdowns and demand shocks, not underlying failures of the economy, the country seemed keen to roar back to our pre-pandemic prosperity of unusually tight labor markets and steady natural wage growth of early 2020. Love President Trump, or hate him, there is no denying that he oversaw the obliteration of our previous conception of what constituted full employment. Biden seems to be blowing the lead. After, a year of the economy regaining more than half of the job losses accrued during the April 2020 apex of the coronavirus recession, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported just a quarter-million new jobs created in contrast to the 1 million jobs anticipated by experts. Rendering it the single worst jobs report in the nation’s history. The unemployment rate actually increased for the first time since last year, from 6% in March to 6.1%. Even worse, inflation seems on the rise in a way it hasn’t been in decades at the same time plateauing work force participation is killing our economic output. For starters, an unprecedented amount of cash has been injected into an economy already shouldering nearly $30 trillion in national debt. For this, Biden hardly bears all the blame. Although Trump’s initial coronavirus spending package was necessitated by the lockdowns, Trump inexplicably demanded an extra $2.3 trillion in his last days. Then, Biden passed another $1.9 trillion grab bag of left-wing goodies under the guise of pandemic relief, and now he’s pushing for a further $4 trillion financed solely by the Federal Reserve, risking it all on a full-year commitment to keep interest rates near zero. Biden, even before the election, elevated proponents of Modern Monetary Theory like Stephanie Kelton to positions on his economic policy task force. When sound voices in the room like Biden’s Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warn about the Fed’s dangerous dovishness, she has been quickly browbeaten into publicly reversing course.

  13425.  @Mike-lv6vs  As part of the COVID-19 relief bill passed in March, Congress approved a one-year increase in the child tax credit from $2,000 per child annually to $3,600 per child under the age of 6 and $3,000 for those ages 6 to 17—delivered as monthly payments of $300 per child under age 6 and $250 for older kids. In the reconciliation bill, Democrats are proposing to maintain the expanded tax credit through 2025. Why 2025? Because the tax credit—which isn't really a tax credit at all, but rather a direct subsidy since it is paid out even if recipients have no income and owe no federal taxes—is expensive. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates that the child tax credit will cost about $110 billion annually, and extending the tax credit through 2025 will cost $450 Billion. Making it permanent would cost $1.1 Trillion over the next 10 years. Those amounts could make a big difference in the ultimate fate of Biden's plan. Democrats need to use the reconciliation process to bypass the filibuster in the Senate, but the rules governing the reconciliation process forbid legislation that expands the federal budget deficit over the next decade. That means every dollar of new spending has to be offset somehow.  And $1.1 trillion is a lot more than $450 billion. Most Democrats would probably love to extend the expand the child tax credit permanently. But by setting the expanded tax credit to expire four years from now, Democrats are able to ignore roughly $700 billion in future costs that have to be offset in order to use the reconciliation process.

  13542.  @PubliusUSA  Agree wholeheartedly! Federalist Paper #10 thoroughly explains the political turmoil the US is currently facing. By a faction, I understand a number of citizens, whether amounting to a majority or a minority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adversed to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community. There are two methods of curing the mischiefs of faction: the one, by removing its causes; the other, by controlling its effects. There are again two methods of removing the causes of faction: the one, by destroying the liberty which is essential to its existence; the other, by giving to every citizen the same opinions, the same passions, and the same interests. It could never be more truly said than of the first remedy, that it was worse than the disease. Liberty is to faction what air is to fire, an aliment without which it instantly expires. But it could not be less folly to abolish liberty, which is essential to political life, because it nourishes faction, than it would be to wish the annihilation of air, which is essential to animal life, because it imparts to fire its destructive agency. The second expedient is as impracticable as the first would be unwise. As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed. As long as the connection subsists between his reason and his self-love, his opinions and his passions will have a reciprocal influence on each other; and the former will be objects to which the latter will attach themselves. The diversity in the faculties of men, from which the rights of property originate, is not less an insuperable obstacle to a uniformity of interests. The protection of these faculties is the first object of government. From the protection of different and unequal faculties of acquiring property, the possession of different degrees and kinds of property immediately results; and from the influence of these on the sentiments and views of the respective proprietors, ensues a division of the society into different interests and parties. The latent causes of faction are thus sown in the nature of man; and we see them everywhere brought into different degrees of activity, according to the different circumstances of civil society. A zeal for different opinions concerning religion, concerning government, and many other points, as well of speculation as of practice; an attachment to different leaders ambitiously contending for pre-eminence and power; or to persons of other descriptions whose fortunes have been interesting to the human passions, have, in turn, divided mankind into parties, inflamed them with mutual animosity, and rendered them much more disposed to vex and oppress each other than to co-operate for their common good. So strong is this propensity of mankind to fall into mutual animosities, that where no substantial occasion presents itself, the most frivolous and fanciful distinctions have been sufficient to kindle their unfriendly passions and excite their most violent conflicts. But the most common and durable source of factions has been the various and unequal distribution of property. Those who hold and those who are without property have ever formed distinct interests in society. Those who are creditors, and those who are debtors, fall under a like discrimination. A landed interest, a manufacturing interest, a mercantile interest, a moneyed interest, with many lesser interests, grow up of necessity in civilized nations, and divide them into different classes, actuated by different sentiments and views. The regulation of these various and interfering interests forms the principal task of modern legislation, and involves the spirit of party and faction in the necessary and ordinary operations of the government. No man is allowed to be a judge in his own cause, because his interest would certainly bias his judgment, and, not improbably, corrupt his integrity. With equal, nay with greater reason, a body of men are unfit to be both judges and parties at the same time; yet what are many of the most important acts of legislation, but so many judicial determinations, not indeed concerning the rights of single persons, but concerning the rights of large bodies of citizens? And what are the different classes of legislators but advocates and parties to the causes which they determine? Is a law proposed concerning private debts? It is a question to which the creditors are parties on one side and the debtors on the other. Justice ought to hold the balance between them. Yet the parties are, and must be, themselves the judges; and the most numerous party, or, in other words, the most powerful faction must be expected to prevail. Shall domestic manufactures be encouraged, and in what degree, by restrictions on foreign manufactures? are questions which would be differently decided by the landed and the manufacturing classes, and probably by neither with a sole regard to justice and the public good. The apportionment of taxes on the various descriptions of property is an act which seems to require the most exact impartiality; yet there is, perhaps, no legislative act in which greater opportunity and temptation are given to a predominant party to trample on the rules of justice. Every shilling with which they overburden the inferior number, is a shilling saved to their own pockets.

  13661. If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” — Thomas Jefferson, letter to Charles Yancey, 1816.  I fully acknowledge that to many this post will smack of elitism, but the facts of the matter stand irrefutable. Ignorant, uninformed and irrational voters constitutes the single greatest threat to the success of modern democratic institutions. In a 1947 speech to the House of Commons, Winston Churchill is said to have quipped, “…democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried…” (Langworth 2009). What is it about democracy that renders it so imperfect? While numerous arguments against democracy have sprung up from time to time, nearly all criticisms have noted one great flaw in particular. As John F. Kennedy put it, “the ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.” Winston Churchill based his skepticism of democracy on the very same thing stating, “the best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” Indeed, the very founding thinkers of the democratic institution feared the ignorance of voters. Aristotle proclaimed, “it… is dangerous for men of this sort to share in the highest offices, as injustice may lead them into wrongdoing, and thoughtlessness into error." The simple fact of the matter is that “almost every democratic theorist or democratic political actor sees an informed electorate as essential to good democratic practice.” However, the DNC views an informed electorate a threat to their very existence, and rightly so.

  13925. When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

  13961. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  14361.  @woodlandgangsta3931  According to data from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service comparing outcomes from 2017 to 2018—the first year the tax reform law went into effect—the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced average effective income tax rates for filers in every one of the IRS’s income brackets, with the largest benefits going to lower- and middle-income households. For example, after accounting for all tax deductions and credits, filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $40,000 to $50,000 received an average tax cut of 18.2 percent. The IRS data further show that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act appeared to have a strong upward effect on economic mobility. The number of filers with an adjusted gross income of $1 to $25,000 decreased by more than 2 million in just one year, while the number of households reporting incomes higher than $25,000 increased in every income bracket. The most significant increase occurred in the $100,000 to $200,000 bracket, which included more than 1 million additional filers in 2018 than it did in 2017. The IRS data also revealed that higher-income earners paid an even larger share of the total tax burden in 2018 than they did in 2017, indicating that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act may have made the tax code slightly more progressive. This finding contradicts the countless statements made by Democrats over the past four years criticizing TCJA as legislation that favored wealthier filers. In 2017, filers earning $500,000 or more paid 38.9 percent of all personal income tax revenues. In 2018, the same income bracket paid 41.5 percent of total income tax revenues. The available evidence is clear: Based on tax data from 2017 and 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced taxes for the vast majority of filers, led to substantial improvements in upward economic mobility, and disproportionately benefited working- and middle-class households, many of which experienced tax cuts topping 18 percent to 20 percent. It appears Nancy Pelosi’s claims of “snake oil” peddling were completely unfounded. It also appears you, Woodland Gangsta, are obsessed with telling lies, just like your messiah, Joe By Lyin'.

  14383.  @robertirvine7938  How ironic and hypocritical your comments are. You begin with, Buh, Buh, but Trump blah, blah blah....... You finish by accusing me of Buh, but Biden. Everything I stated about Biden is factual. Also your hero has failed miserably with his handling of the Covid pandemic. Operation Warp Speed gifted effective Covid vaccines for your hero. Yet, since February, all Covid deaths under Biden have exceeded the number of deaths while President Trump was in office. FAIL! This was exacerbated by your hero's stupid decision to openly invite millions of unvaccinated migrants/terrorists across our southern border. He even promised to gift them $400k each for criminally invading our homeland. Also, Biden's Afghan withdrawl would have been executed better by a 3rd grader. Gifting the Afghan Taliban with $400 Billion in US weaponry was absolutely insane. FAIL! Inflation is rampant. FAIL! Energy cost have skyrocketed, under his leadership. The percentage of those receiving some sort of welfare benefits reached record level/ unprecedented proportions under your hero. FAIL. We are countrymen. This is our Homeland. I think we can both agree we need intelligent, capable, reasonable leadership to steer our country in times of crisis. We do not need leadership that takes pride in creating crisis, after crisis, to wreak havoc on our nation, penalized our citizenry, devastate our economy, and endanger the future of our nation. I am an Independent. I have always voted for who will be the best stewards for this nation, not by party. Currently, the DNC is very regressive. Their refusal to work together with Conseratives is childish, and harms our nation. Thankfully, midterms will steer this nation away from the regressive, tyrannical, socialism pushing leftist ideology. We need to silence the radical left, by putting rational, even handed leadership back in DC. The freak show is appalling to 100's of millions of our citizenry.

  14385. In the Kansas territory, “border ruffians,” led by Missouri’s Democratic senator, David Atchison, moved in and out of Kansas with impunity—stuffing ballot boxes, visiting violence on free state settlers and attempting to tilt the scales in favor of slavery. “You know how to protect your own interests,” Atchison declared. “Your rifles will free you from such neighbors. … You will go there, if necessary, with the bayonet and with blood.” “If we win,” he promised, “we can carry slavery to the Pacific Ocean.” Although antislavery voters probably made up a healthy majority of the population, the slave forces stole a series of territorial elections, leading the Free Soilers to establish a shadow government in Lawrence, Kansas. Tensions had already started to boil over when Atchison’s ruffians “sacked” and pillaged the free-state capital city, destroying the local Free-Soil newspaper office and laying ruin to the Free State Hotel, which housed the shadow legislature. Days later, on May 19, 1856, Charles Sumner rose on the Senate floor to denounce the “crime against Kansas.” The day after his speech, as Sumner attended to routine paperwork on the Senate floor, Congressman Preston Brooks entered the chamber and set upon him with a metal-tipped cane. The senators’ desks were bolted to the floor, making it impossible for Sumner to escape from his seat. Writhing in pain, he wrenched the desk up with his knees and collapsed on the bloodstained carpet. His injuries nearly killed him, and it would be four years before he could return to normal duties in the Capitol. As for Brooks: He enjoyed the full-throated support of Southern Democrats and the quiet approval—or at least non-disapproval—of his Northern party brethren who remained faithful to their party. The incident soon became known as “Bleeding Sumner,” and it created a political firestorm. The symbolic importance of the crime was arresting. Southern Democrats and their fellow travelers up North were no longer content to employ violence and terrorism in Kansas. Now they had brought their war of aggression into the halls of Congress. “The South has taken the oligarchic ground that Slavery ought to exist, irrespective of color,” the New-York Tribune intoned, “that Democracy is an illusion and a lie.”

  14534. It clearly appears, that the same advantage which a republic has over a democracy, in controlling the effects of faction, is enjoyed by a large over a small republic,--is enjoyed by the Union over the States composing it. Does the advantage consist in the substitution of representatives whose enlightened views and virtuous sentiments render them superior to local prejudices and schemes of injustice? It will not be denied that the representation of the Union will be most likely to possess these requisite endowments. Does it consist in the greater security afforded by a greater variety of parties, against the event of any one party being able to outnumber and oppress the rest? In an equal degree does the increased variety of parties comprised within the Union, increase this security. Does it, in fine, consist in the greater obstacles opposed to the concert and accomplishment of the secret wishes of an unjust and interested majority? Here, again, the extent of the Union gives it the most palpable advantage. The influence of factious leaders may kindle a flame within their particular States, but will be unable to spread a general conflagration through the other States. A religious sect may degenerate into a political faction in a part of the Confederacy; but the variety of sects dispersed over the entire face of it must secure the national councils against any danger from that source. A rage for paper money, for an abolition of debts, for an equal division of property, or for any other improper or wicked project, will be less apt to pervade the whole body of the Union than a particular member of it; in the same proportion as such a malady is more likely to taint a particular county or district, than an entire State. In the extent and proper structure of the Union, therefore, we behold a republican remedy for the diseases most incident to republican government. And according to the degree of pleasure and pride we feel in being republicans, ought to be our zeal in cherishing the spirit and supporting the character of Federalists. -Thomas Jefferson.

  14598. The timeline is ten years. Here are some of the goals: Ban affordable energy. GND calls for the elimination of all fossil fuel energy production, the lifeblood of American industry and life, which includes not only all oil but also natural gas — one of the cheapest sources of American energy, and one of the reasons the United States has been able to lead the world in carbon-emissions reduction. Eliminate nuclear energy. The GND also calls for eliminating all nuclear power, one of the only productive and somewhat affordable “clean” energy sources available to us, in 11 years. This move would purge around 20 percent of American energy generation so you can rely on intermittent wind for your energy needs. Eliminate 99 percent of cars. To be fair, under the GND, everyone will need to retrofit their cars with Flintstones-style foot holes or pedals for cycling. The authors state that the GND would like to replace every “combustion-engine vehicle” — trucks, airplanes, boats, and 99 percent of cars — within ten years. Charging stations for electric vehicles will be built “everywhere,” though how power plants will provide the energy needed to charge them is a mystery. Gut and rebuild every building in America. Markey and Cortez want to “retrofit every building in America” with “state of the art energy efficiency.” I repeat, “every building in America.” That includes every home, factory, and apartment building, which will all need, for starters, to have their entire working heating and cooling systems ripped out and replaced with…well, with whatever technology Democrats are going invent in their committee hearings, I guess. Eliminate air travel. GND calls for building out “highspeed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary.” Good luck Hawaii! California’s high-speed boondoggle is already in $100 billion dollars of debt, and looks to be one of the state’s biggest fiscal disasters ever. Amtrak runs billions of dollars in the red (though, as we’ll see, trains that run on fossil fuels will also be phased out). Imagine growing that business model out to every state in America? A government-guaranteed job. The bill promises the United States government will provide every single American with a job that includes a “family-sustaining wage, family and medical leave, vacations, and a pension.” You can imagine that those left in the private sector would be funding these through some unspecified “massive” taxation. On the bright side, when you’re foraging for food, your savings will be worthless. Free education for life. GND promises free college or trade schools for every American. A salubrious diet. The GND promises the government will provide “healthy food” to every American (because there are no beans or lettuce in your local supermarket, I guess). A house. The GND promises that the government will provide, “safe, affordable, adequate housing” for every American citizen. I call dibs on an affordable Adams Morgan townhouse. Thank you, Ocasio-Cortez. Free money. The GND aims to provide, and I am not making this up, “economic security” for all who are “unable or unwilling” to work. Just to reiterate: if you’re unwilling to work, the rest of us will have your back. Bonus insanity: Ban meat. Ocasio-Cortez admits that we can’t get zero emissions in 10 years “because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.” The only way to get rid of farting cows is to get rid of beef.

  14750. Biden is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic. Those who aren’t paying attention moronically defend his blasphemous destruction of America, the American dream, our capitalist economy, America's borders, the US Constitution and America's sovereignty. Biden's hope of undoing American accountability in elections through his support of HR1. He’s attempting to undo our economic foundations with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. He’s attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. He’s attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccination mandates, and job loss for non-compliance. He supports any attempt to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. He’s attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. He wants the police weakened, and is emboldening the criminal leftist mindset. He is pledging to take guns away from law abiding owners. Biden wants to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the. US Constitution becomes so diluted, it becomes weak, useless and unrecognizable. Biden's latest strategic ploy- signing what seems as though might be his 500th executive order, he officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. President Trump's most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. This is why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else. Except perhaps, moronic individuals, who are willing to worship and defend the actions of, until their dying breath, an oppressive tyrant like Biden. Ignoramuses, such as Belinda Tapp, who have been taught, only, what to think, instead of how to think for themselves, objectively. Individuals like this, laughably, spew hate and childish, uneducated insults, at those of us who are capable of comprehending the devastation, the Leftist mindset will reign down upon the greatest nation on earth. I challenge Belinda Tapp to an intelligence sparring match. In so far as, all they have contrived are falsehoods and childish insults.

  14926. I have no respect for ANY able bodied individual, who refuses to work! The left is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic. The left id attempting to undo American accountability in elections through their support of HR1. The Left is attempting to undo our economic foundations with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. The Left is attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. Biden and the Left are attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccine mandates, and job loss for noncompliance.

One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Obama had left hundreds of judicial vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else. Except.... a large segment of the American citizenry, who have been taught only what to think, they are incapable of rational, educated, coherent, and factual based independent thought processes. This portion of society gleefully surrender their rights, to appease an oppressive tyrant, and political party. My, how far America has fallen since our Founding Fathers fought and bled for this nation's independence.

Feds funded study proving Thanos couldn't snap his fingers while wearing Infinity Gauntlet The U.S. federal government funded a study that determined the Marvel supervillain "Thanos" would not have been able to snap his fingers in the movie Avengers: Infinity War, a new report from Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., revealed last week. The study, spearheaded by researchers at Georgia Tech, focused on the speed at which humans can snap their fingers, ultimately reporting a finger snap "produces the highest rotational accelerations observed in humans, even faster than the arm of a professional baseball pitcher." For the past few years, I’ve been fascinated with how we can snap our fingers,” Saad Bhamla, one of the researchers involved in the study, said in a press release. “It’s really an extraordinary physics puzzle right at our fingertips that hasn’t been investigated closely.” Prior to conducting the study, Bhamla and his fellow researchers developed a "framework" to explain "ultrafast motions" in living beings. Seeing Thanos snap his fingers while wearing the Infinity Gauntlet in Avengers: Infinity War inspired the researchers to apply their framework to the massively popular cinematic franchise. Despite deriving inspiration from Thanos, the study focused more broadly on the human finger snap, raising questions about why humans snap their fingers in the first place and whether other primates have the ability to do so. Regardless, the press release announcing the study's findings placed a noticeable emphasis on Thanos and his cataclysmic finger snap. Our results suggest that Thanos could not have snapped because of his metal armored fingers,” Raghav Acharya, one of the authors of the study, said in the release. "So, it’s probably the Hollywood special effects, rather than actual physics, at play! Sorry for the spoiler." Senator Rand Paul highlighted the $118,971 grant awarded to the researchers in his annual "Festivus" report, which outlines examples of wasteful spending by the federal government. The report dubbed "national debt" as "the real infinity war" in an apparent spoof of the Marvel movie. Other examples of allegedly wasteful spending featured in the report include a nearly $200,000 grant "to verify that the relationship between pets and children is beneficial to mental health," as well as a $50 million investment to encourage tourism in the African nation of Tunisia.

  15031.  @sandler800  The First Amendment gives everyone residing in the United States the right to hear all sides of every issue and to make their own judgments about those issues without government interference or limitations. The First Amendment allows individuals to speak, publish, read and view what they wish, worship (or not worship) as they wish, associate with whomever they choose, and gather together to ask the government to make changes in the law or to correct the wrongs in society. The right to speak and the right to publish under the First Amendment has been interpreted widely to protect individuals and society from government attempts to suppress ideas and information, and to forbid government censorship of books, magazines, and newspapers as well as art, film, music and materials on the internet. The Supreme Court and other courts have held conclusively that there is a First Amendment right to receive information as a corollary to the right to speak. Justice William Brennan elaborated on this point in 1965: “The protection of the Bill of Rights goes beyond the specific guarantees to protect from Congressional abridgment those equally fundamental personal rights necessary to make the express guarantees fully meaningful.I think the right to receive publications is such a fundamental right.The dissemination of ideas can accomplish nothing if otherwise willing addressees are not free to receive and consider them. It would be a barren marketplace of ideas that had only sellers and no buyers.” Lamont v. Postmaster General, 381 U.S. 301 (1965). The Supreme Court reaffirmed that the right to receive information is a fundamental right protected under the U.S. Constitution when it considered whether a local school board violated the Constitution by removing books from a school library. In that decision, the Supreme Court held that “the right to receive ideas is a necessary predicate to the recipient’s meaningful exercise of his own rights of speech, press, and political freedom.” Board of Education v. Pico, 457 U.S. 853 (1982) Public schools and public libraries, as public institutions, have been the setting for legal battles about student access to books, the removal or retention of “offensive” material, regulation of patron behavior, and limitations on public access to the internet. Restrictions and censorship of materials in public institutions are most commonly prompted by public complaints about those materials and implemented by government officials mindful of the importance some of their constituents may place on religious values, moral sensibilities, and the desire to protect children from materials they deem to be offensive or inappropriate. Directly or indirectly, ordinary individuals are the driving force behind the challenges to the freedom to access information and ideas in the library. The First Amendment prevents public institutions from compromising individuals' First Amendment freedoms by establishing a framework that defines critical rights and responsibilities regarding free expression and the freedom of belief. The First Amendment protects the right to exercise those freedoms, and it advocates respect for the right of others to do the same. Rather than engaging in censorship and repression to advance one's values and beliefs, Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis counsels persons living in the United States to resolve their differences in values and belief by resort to "more speech, not enforced silence." By virtue of the Fourteenth Amendment, the First Amendment's constitutional right of free speech and intellectual freedom also applies to state and local governments. Government agencies and government officials are forbidden from regulating or restricting speech or other expression based on its content or viewpoint. Criticism of the government, political dissatisfaction, and advocacy of unpopular ideas that people may find distasteful or against public policy are nearly always protected by the First Amendment. Only that expression that is shown to belong to a few narrow categories of speech is not protected by the First Amendment. The categories of unprotected speech include obscenity, child pornography, defamatory speech, false advertising, true threats, and fighting words. Deciding what is and is not protected speech is reserved to courts of law.

  15034.  @sandler800  You must have very poor reading comprehension skills. In my last post you will find I cited 3 Supreme Court rulings that are very pertinent to the issue of free speech, in print, on tv, on radio, and on the internet. Also, you will learn why religion is protected. Therefore, if you want to air Muslim prayer services, you can. By either paying a network to air them or creating your own network. You seem confused, and or dense. NewsMax is the 4th highest rated news network in the US, and is being threatened with huge fees by AT&T or being deplatformed. CNN is rated 63rd and MSNBC is rated 56th in veiwership, AT&T waives their fees to keep CNN, MSNBC, and 20 other left wing propaganda news outlets in their lineup. To put this in terms even a simpleton, like can understand AT&T makes money by having NewsMax in their lineup. AT&T loses money by having CNN and MSNBC in their lineup These facts disprove your earlier statement about the facts of this issue. Also, another very important fact that you are choosing to ignore is, AT&T receives huge amounts of government funding which is paid by our tax money. Tax money that is paid by Republicans, and Democrats. These puts AT&T in a position to lose government funding, if they continue this blatant discrimination. Which proves this has nothing whatsoever to do with veiwership, and everything to do with pushing left wing ideologies, and promoting propaganda networks over higher viewership channels. Dude, educate yourself..... Don't do it for me. Do it for yourself.

  15036.  @sandler800  Your reading comprehension is very poor. Nothing I said could even remotely be construed, into your interpretation of it. Did AT&T use a credible business reason for this as opposed to an arbitrary political reason for cutting off Newsmax? Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy is a very intelligent businessman. If there was a deal to be had with DirecTV, it would have been reached. AT&T's DirecTV cut Newsmax's signal at midnight Tuesday, stopping its more than 13 million customers on the satellite service, DirecTV Stream, and U-Verse from accessing the network. DirecTV said it was taking the step as a "cost-cutting" measure and would not meet Newsmax's calls for the provider to pay the network a cable license fee.The fact is that AT&T makes huge profits having Newsmax on their platform, flies in the face of their lies. AT&T is lying to the public. They're lying to their customers, and that raises legal issues. They can't lie to the customers so they can and will be charged state and federal crimes. That could also trigger investigations from the FCC. If it can be proven DirecTV is lying to Newsmax, and their customers, AT&T will lose its ability to maintain FCC approval. If that happens AT&T will not remain licenced to act as a network in the USA, without keeping Newsmax available. You seem quite arrogant, and also egregiously ignorant. I have tried to educate you. Sadly, you are unable to learn anything, prolly bc you think you know it all. What you know might fill a thimble. What you don't know would fill the universe.

  15058. Ten year goals of GND ;Ban affordable energy. GND calls for the elimination of all fossil fuel energy production, the lifeblood of American industry and life, which includes not only all oil but also natural gas — one of the cheapest sources of American energy, and one of the reasons the United States has been able to lead the world in carbon-emissions reduction. Eliminate nuclear energy. The GND also calls for eliminating all nuclear power, one of the only productive and somewhat affordable “clean” energy sources available to us, in 11 years. This move would purge around 20 percent of American energy generation so you can rely on intermittent wind for your energy needs. Eliminate 99 percent of cars. To be fair, under the GND, everyone will need to retrofit their cars with Flintstones-style foot holes or pedals for cycling. The authors state that the GND would like to replace every “combustion-engine vehicle” — trucks, airplanes, boats, and 99 percent of cars — within ten years. Charging stations for electric vehicles will be built “everywhere,” though how power plants will provide the energy needed to charge them is a mystery. Gut and rebuild every building in America. Markey and Cortez want to “retrofit every building in America” with “state of the art energy efficiency.” I repeat, “every building in America.” That includes every home, factory, and apartment building, which will all need, for starters, to have their entire working heating and cooling systems ripped out and replaced with…well, with whatever technology Democrats are going invent in their committee hearings, I guess. Eliminate air travel. GND calls for building out “highspeed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary.” Good luck Hawaii! California’s high-speed boondoggle is already in $100 billion dollars of debt, and looks to be one of the state’s biggest fiscal disasters ever. Amtrak runs billions of dollars in the red (though, as we’ll see, trains that run on fossil fuels will also be phased out). Imagine growing that business model out to every state in America? A government-guaranteed job. The bill promises the United States government will provide every single American with a job that includes a “family-sustaining wage, family and medical leave, vacations, and a pension.” You can imagine that those left in the private sector would be funding these through some unspecified “massive” taxation. On the bright side, when you’re foraging for food, your savings will be worthless. Free education for life. GND promises free college or trade schools for every American. A salubrious diet. The GND promises the government will provide “healthy food” to every American (because there are no beans or lettuce in your local supermarket, I guess). A house. The GND promises that the government will provide, “safe, affordable, adequate housing” for every American citizen. I call dibs on an affordable Adams Morgan townhouse. Thank you, Ocasio-Cortez. Free money. The GND aims to provide, and I am not making this up, “economic security” for all who are “unable or unwilling” to work. Just to reiterate: if you’re unwilling to work, the rest of us will have your back. Bonus insanity: Ban meat. Ocasio-Cortez admits that we can’t get zero emissions in 10 years “because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.” The only way to get rid of farting cows is to get rid of beef.

  15103. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  15508. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  15586.  wademitchell3817  Income data published by the IRS clearly show that on average all income brackets benefited substantially from the Republicans’ tax reform law, with the biggest beneficiaries being working and middle-income filers, not the top 1 percent, as so many Democrats have argued. A careful analysis of the IRS tax data, one that includes the effects of tax credits and other reforms to the tax code, shows that filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $15,000 to $50,000 enjoyed an average tax cut of 16 percent to 26 percent in 2018, the first year Republicans’ Tax Cuts and Jobs Act went into effect and the most recent year for which data is available. Filers who earned $50,000 to $100,000 received a tax break of about 15 percent to 17 percent, and those earning $100,000 to $500,000 in adjusted gross income saw their personal income taxes cut by around 11 percent to 13 percent. By comparison, no income group with an AGI of at least $500,000 received an average tax cut exceeding 9 percent, and the average tax cut for brackets starting at $1 million was less than 6 percent. (For more detailed data, see my table published here.) That means most middle-income and working-class earners enjoyed a tax cut that was at least double the size of tax cuts received by households earning $1 million or more. What’s more, IRS data shows earners in higher income brackets contributed a bigger slice of the total income tax revenue pie following the passage of the tax reform law than they had in the previous year. In fact, every income bracket with filers earning $200,000 or more increased its tax burden in 2018 compared to 2017, and every income bracket with a top limit lower than $200,000 paid a smaller proportion of the total personal tax revenue collected. That means that Republicans’ tax reform law resulted in the tax code becoming slightly more progressive — the exact opposite of what Democrats have claimed over the past four years. The IRS data further shows that the tax reform law — which included a variety of business tax cuts, including a large reduction in the corporate income tax rate — spurred economic mobility. Every income bracket with a top level lower than $25,000 experienced a reduction in its number of filers, and every income bracket above $25,000 increased in size, with the biggest gains occurring in the brackets with a floor of at least $100,000. The fact is, Republicans’ 2017 tax reform law did exactly what was promised: It lowered taxes for all income groups, provided the greatest benefits for middle-income households, and spurred economic growth that helped reduce poverty and improve prosperity. It would be a grave mistake for Democrats to eliminate key parts of this important legislation.

  15665.  @p4our587  Nearly everything you posted about the TCJA is a lie, according to data from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service comparing outcomes from 2017 to 2018—the first year the tax reform law went into effect—the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced average effective income tax rates for filers in every one of the IRS’s income brackets, with the largest benefits going to lower- and middle-income households. For example, after accounting for all tax deductions and credits, filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $40,000 to $50,000 received an average tax cut of 18.2 percent.[4] The IRS data further show that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act appeared to have a strong upward effect on economic mobility. The number of filers with an adjusted gross income of $1 to $25,000 decreased by more than 2 million in just one year, while the number of households reporting incomes higher than $25,000 increased in every income bracket.[5] The most significant increase occurred in the $100,000 to $200,000 bracket, which included more than 1 million additional filers in 2018 than it did in 2017.[6] The IRS data also revealed that higher-income earners paid an even larger share of the total tax burden in 2018 than they did in 2017, indicating that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act may have made the tax code slightly more progressive. This finding contradicts the countless statements made by Democrats over the past four years criticizing TCJA as legislation that favored wealthier filers. In 2017, filers earning $500,000 or more paid 38.9 percent of all personal income tax revenues. In 2018, the same income bracket paid 41.5 percent of total income tax revenues.[7] The available evidence is clear: Based on tax data from 2017 and 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced taxes for the vast majority of filers, led to substantial improvements in upward economic mobility, and disproportionately benefited working- and middle-class households, many of which experienced tax cuts topping 18 percent to 20 percent. This is FACTUAL information taken directly from the IRS website. It appears Nancy Pelosi’s claims of “snake oil” peddling were completely unfounded.

  15682.  @SuperToughnut  Also the Southern Strategy BS you posted earlier has been proven false. The Republican Party, was founded in 1848 with the abolition of slavery as its core mission. Almost immediately after its second presidential candidate, Abraham Lincoln, won the 1860 election, Democrat-controlled southern states seceded on the assumption that Lincoln would destroy their slave-based economies. Once the Civil War ended, the newly freed slaves as expected flocked to the Republican Party, but Democrat control of the South from Reconstruction until the Civil Rights Era was near total.  In 1960, Democrats held every Senate seat south of the Mason Dixon line. In the 13 states that made up the Confederacy a century earlier, Democrats held a staggering 117-8 advantage in the House of Representatives.  The Democratic Party was so strong in the south that those 117 House members made up a full 41% of Democrats' 283-153 advantage in the Chamber. Likewise, throughout the late 1950s and early 1960s, Democratic governors and overwhelmingly Democratic State Legislatures controlled the South, which steadfastly opposed the push for civil rights. In contrast, Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower, openly praised school desegregation in the Brown v. Board of Education decision and sent federalized Arkansas National Guard troops to Little Rock to protect nine black students after Democratic Governor Orval Faubus threatened to keep them out of a previously all-white high school. You truly need an education in history. Or you can continue lying to yourself, and others, proudly sharing your profound and deep rooted ignorance and lies.

  15793. Biden is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic. He’s attempting to undo American accountability in elections through his support of HR1. He’s attempting to undo our economic foundations with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. He’s attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. He’s attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccine mandates, and noncompliance job loss. He supports any attempt to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. He’s attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. He wants the police weakened. He is pledging to take guns away from law abiding owners. And he wants to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the Constitution becomes unrecognizable. His latest strategic ploy? Signing what seems as though might be his 500th executive order, he officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Shockingly President* Biden’s former boss had left hundreds of vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else.

  15864. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  15974.  @KingTemplarDragon  TaliBiden quote, “My administration strongly supports the diplomatic process to bring an end to this war that is closing out 20 years. We remain committed to ensuring that Afghanistan never again provides a base for terrorist attacks against the United States and our partners and our interests.” TaliBiden says he “inherited a diplomatic agreement” between the U.S. and the Taliban that all U.S. forces would be out by May 1. “It is perhaps not what I would have negotiated myself, but it was an agreement made by the United States government, and that means something,” Biden says, adding that final troop withdrawal would begin on May 1. “We will not conduct a hasty rush to the exit,” Biden says. “We’ll do it responsibly, deliberately, and safely.” Biden assures Americans that the U.S. has “trained and equipped a standing force of over 300,000 Afghan personnel” and that “they’ll continue to fight valiantly, on behalf of the Afghans, at great cost.” April 15 — In response to Biden’s decision to delay full withdrawal until Sept. 11, the Taliban releases a statement that says failure to complete the withdrawal by May 1 “opens the way for [the Taliban] to take every necessary countermeasure, hence the American side will be held responsible for all future consequences.” April 18 — In a released statement, Trump criticizes Biden’s Sept. 11 withdrawal deadline saying, “we can and should get out earlier.” He concludes, “Getting out of Afghanistan is a wonderful and positive thing to do. I planned to withdraw on May 1st, and we should keep as close to that schedule as possible.” May 18 — The Defense Department releases a report for the first three months of 2021 that says the Taliban had increased its attacks against Afghanistan government forces during this period and appears to be preparing with al-Qaeda for “large-scale offensives.” “The Taliban initiated 37 percent more attacks this quarter than during the same period in 2020,” the report said. “According to the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Taliban maintained close ties with al-Qaeda and was very likely preparing for large-scale offensives against population centers and Afghan government installations.” TaliBiden continues to lie, continues to not make good on his promises, and continues to blame President Trump for his massive failure to ensure an orderly, well planned Afghan withdrawal. TaliBiden lies, and fails to provide a safe, well planned Afghan withdrawal, even after extending the deadline from May 1, to August 31. TaliBiden fails. TaliBiden leaves Americans, and allies behind, including an Afghan translator who saved TaliBiden's azz back in 2008. TaliBiden also left weapons of war to be used by the Taliban and Al-Qaeda. The Taliban and Al-Qaeda are now the most well armed terrorist organizations in the world. This is entirely the fault of Biden's failures.

  16264.  @turnerfamilyinozi  In late 2013 and into 2014, mass protests erupted in Kyiv, Ukraine, demanding integration into western economies and an end to systemic corruption that had plagued the country. At least 82 people were killed during the protests, which culminated on Feb. 21 when Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych abdicated by fleeing the country. Less than two months later, over the span of only 28 days, significant events involving the Bidens unfolded. On April 16, 2014, Vice President Biden met with his son’s business partner, Devon Archer, at the White House. Five days later, Vice President Biden visited Ukraine, and he soon after was described in the press as the “public face of the administration’s handling of Ukraine.” The day after his visit, on April 22, Archer joined the board of Burisma. Six days later, on April 28, British officials seized $23 million from the London bank accounts of Burisma’s owner, Mykola Zlochevsky. Fourteen days later, on May 12, Hunter Biden joined the board of Burisma, and over the course of the next several years, Hunter Biden and Devon Archer were paid millions of dollars from a corrupt Ukrainian oligarch for their participation on the board. The 2014 protests in Kyiv came to be known as the Revolution of Dignity — a revolution against corruption in Ukraine. Following that revolution, Ukrainian political figures were desperate for U.S. support. Zlochevsky would have made sure relevant Ukrainian officials were well aware of Hunter’s appointment to Burisma’s board as leverage. Hunter Biden’s position on the board created an immediate potential conflict of interest that would prove to be problematic for both U.S. and Ukrainian officials and would affect the implementation of Ukraine policy. The Chairmen’s investigation into potential conflicts of interest began in August 2019, with Chairman Grassley’s letter to the Department of Treasury regarding potential conflicts of interest with respect to Obama administration policy relating to the Henniges transaction. During the Obama administration, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) approved a transaction that gave control over Henniges, an American maker of anti- vibration technologies with military applications, to a Chinese government-owned aviation company and a China-based investment firm with established ties to the Chinese government. One of the companies involved in the Henniges transaction was a billion-dollar private investment fund called Bohai Harvest RST (BHR). BHR was formed in November 2013 by a merger between the Chinese-government-linked firm Bohai Capital and a company named Rosemont Seneca Partners. Rosemont Seneca was formed in 2009 by Hunter Biden, the son of then-Vice President Joe Biden, by Chris Heinz, the stepson of former Secretary of State John Kerry, and others.

  16426.  @skylark1250  Wrong. It is the Convention OF States, not "if" States. Your lack of knowledge is reflected in your inability to spell. Secession? No. Nothing I posted, implies states secede. Typical, ignorant liberals like yourself, know enough to fill a thimble. What you don't know would fill the universe, and yet, you absurdly exhibit an arrogant, charlatan like demeanor. Allow me to educate you on something you clearly, are ignorant of. Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and businesses is a recipe for disaster. What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the U.S. Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention for proposing needed amendments to the Constitution. This process does not require the consent of the federal government in Washington, DC. Quite simply it allows a 2/3 majority of states to pass amendments to the US Constitution. Why would you not support the Convention of States Project? It is merely a national effort to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress, ect.... You can easily find a copy of the model resolution and the Article V Pocket Guide.

  16689.  @dwaynejoyce1357  FYI, the last decent Democrat President, owned his mistake, and his approval rating soared. JOHN F KENNEDY’S ADDRESS ON THE BAY OF PIGS (1961) - The President of a great democracy such as ours, and the editors of great newspapers such as yours, owe a common obligation to the people: an obligation to present the facts, to present them with candour, and to present them in perspective. It is with that obligation in mind that I have decided in the last 24 hours to discuss briefly at this time the recent events in Cuba. On that unhappy island, as in so many other areas of the contest for freedom, the news has grown worse instead of better. I have emphasised before that this was a struggle of Cuban patriots against a Cuban dictator. While we could not be expected to lend our sympathies, we made it repeatedly clear that the armed forces of this country would not intervene in any way. It is not the first time that Communist tanks have rolled over gallant men and women fighting to redeem the independence of their homeland. Nor is it by any means the final episode in the eternal struggle of liberty against tyranny, anywhere on the face of the globe, including Cuba itself. Mr Castro has said that these were mercenaries. According to press reports, the final message to be relayed from the refugee forces on the beach came from the rebel commander when asked if he wished to be evacuated. His answer was: “I will never leave this country. “That is not the reply of a mercenary… Meanwhile we will not accept Mr. Castro’s attempts to blame this nation for the hatred with which his onetime supporters now regard his repression. But there are from this sobering episode useful lessons for all to learn. Some may be still obscure and await further information. Some are clear today. First, it is clear that the forces of communism are not to be underestimated, in Cuba or anywhere else in the world. The advantages of a police state – its use of mass terror and arrests to prevent the spread of free dissent – cannot be overlooked by those who expect the fall of every fanatic tyrant. Secondly, it is clear that this nation, in concert with all the free nations of this hemisphere, must take an even closer and more realistic look at the menace of external Communist intervention and domination in Cuba. The American people are not complacent about Iron Curtain tanks and planes less than 90 miles from our shores. The evidence is clear, and the hour is late. We and our Latin friends will have to face the fact that we cannot postpone any longer the real issue of the survival of freedom in this hemisphere. Third and finally, it is clearer than ever that we face a relentless struggle in every corner of the globe that goes far beyond the clash of armies or even nuclear armaments. The armies are there and in large number. The nuclear armaments are there. But they serve primarily as the shield behind which subversion, infiltration, and a host of other tactics steadily advance, picking off vulnerable areas one by one in situations which do not permit our own armed intervention. Power is the hallmark of this offensive – power and discipline and deceit. The legitimate discontent of yearning peoples is exploited. The legitimate trappings of self-determination are employed. But once in power, all talk of discontent is repressed; all self-determination disappears; and the promise of a revolution of hope is betrayed, as in Cuba, into a reign of terror… The message of Cuba, of Laos, of the rising din of Communist voices in Asia and Latin America – these messages are all the same. The complacent, the self-indulgent, the soft societies are about to be swept away with the debris of history. Only the strong, only the industrious, only the determined, only the courageous, only the visionary who determine the real nature of our struggle can possibly survive.”

  16729. If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” — Thomas Jefferson, letter to Charles Yancey, 1816.  I fully acknowledge that to many this post will smack of elitism, but the facts of the matter stand irrefutable. Ignorant, uninformed and irrational voters constitutes the single greatest threat to the success of modern democratic institutions. In a 1947 speech to the House of Commons, Winston Churchill is said to have quipped, “…democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried…” (Langworth 2009). What is it about democracy that renders it so imperfect? While numerous arguments against democracy have sprung up from time to time, nearly all criticisms have noted one great flaw in particular. As John F. Kennedy put it, “the ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.” Winston Churchill based his skepticism of democracy on the very same thing stating, “the best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” Indeed, the very founding thinkers of the democratic institution feared the ignorance of voters. Aristotle proclaimed, “it… is dangerous for men of this sort to share in the highest offices, as injustice may lead them into wrongdoing, and thoughtlessness into error." The simple fact of the matter is that “almost every democratic theorist or democratic political actor sees an informed electorate as essential to good democratic practice” (Hochschild 2010). Yet the DNC views an informed electorate as a threat to their very existence.

  16758.  @denisecase807  Biden's goals have not changed one bit. You are foolish to think he won't continue to gut social programs, as he has championed for for over 40 years. On two previous occasions, Biden has offered suggestions to strengthen SS, which ultimately reduce benefits. While most lawmakers have shied away from directly calling for Social Security benefits to be cut, President Joe Biden has previously done so on two separate occasions. Joe Biden was a presidential candidate for the 2008 ticket. In September 2007, Biden released a plan that was, among other things, designed to shore up Social Security. Keep in mind that Although this plan called for an increase to the maximum taxable earnings cap on high earners, Biden was also open to discussing bipartisan options, such as raising the full retirement age. The full retirement age is the age at which a beneficiary becomes eligible to receive 100% of their retired worker benefit. For roughly six decades after the first Social Security check went out in 1940, the full retirement age stood pat at 65. But following two rounds of gradual increases, everyone born in 1960 and later has a full retirement age of 67. The second time President Biden called for Social Security benefit cuts happened more recently. In May 2018, nearly a full year before declaring his candidacy for president, Biden advocated for benefits means-testing while speaking at a Brookings Institution event. Said Biden:  Paul Ryan [the former Republican speaker of the house] was correct when he did the tax code. What's the first thing he decided we had to go after? Social Security and Medicare. Now, we need to do something about Social Security and Medicare. That's the only way you can find room to pay for it. Now, I don't know a whole lot of people in the top one-tenth of 1% or top 1% [who] are relying on Social Security when they retire. Please educate yourself. Your desperation is grossly apparent. Good Riddance, to bad rubbish.

  16915. Biden and Dems are racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic. They are attempting to undo American accountability in elections through support of HR1. They are attempting to undo our economic foundations with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. They are attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. They are attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed vaccine mandates, and job loss for noncompliance. They support attempts to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. They are attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. They want the police weakened. Pledging to take guns away from law abiding owners. They want to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the Constitution becomes ineffective and unrecognizable. Their latest strategic ploy. By signing what seems as though might be his 500th executive order, Biden officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Shockingly President* Biden’s former boss had left hundreds of vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else.

  17211.  @warbunny85  PAUL HARVEY’S ‘IF I WERE THE DEVIL’ TRANSCRIPT If I were the devil … If I were the Prince of Darkness, I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness. And I’d have a third of it’s real estate, and four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn’t be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — Thee. So I’d set about however necessary to take over the United States. I’d subvert the churches first — I’d begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: ‘Do as you please.’ “To the young, I would whisper that ‘The Bible is a myth.’ I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what’s bad is good, and what’s good is ‘square.’ And the old, I would teach to pray, after me, ‘Our Father, which art in Washington…’ “And then I’d get organized. I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting, so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting. I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa. I’d pedal narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I’d tranquilize the rest with pills. “If I were the devil I’d soon have families that war with themselves, churches at war with themselves, and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was consumed. And with promises of higher ratings I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames. If I were the devil I would encourage schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions — just let those run wild, until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door. “Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing, I’d have judges promoting pornography — soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress. And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls, and church money. If I were the devil I’d make the symbols of Easter an egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle. “If I were the devil I’d take from those who have, and give to those who wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And what do you bet? I couldn’t get whole states to promote gambling as thee way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work, in Patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on TV is the way to be. And thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. In other words, if I were the devil I’d just keep right on doing on what he’s doing. Paul Harvey, good day.”

  17269. @BlackCloudStudio A troll joins online discussion, posts comments designed to upset, disrupt, and derail conversations. They lie, exaggerate, defame and vituperate, to create a response and derail a thread. Canadian researchers studied what type of person would do this and why. Their study, published in the September 2014 issue of Personality and Individual Differences, found that trolling is an Internet manifestation of sadism. They conducted two online studies of 1,200 people. They gave personality tests to each one and surveyed their Internet commenting behavior. They found evidence of what is termed the “Dark Tetrad” of personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy and sadism. Dark Tetrad scores were highest among people who said trolling was their favorite activity. Dark Tetrad scores were off the charts for Internet trolls and “… the associations between sadism and GAIT (Global Assessment of Internet Trolling) scores were so strong that it might be said that online trolls are prototypical everyday sadists.” This does not apply to all trolls. Some are government or nongovernment agency disinformation agents. Intelligence services, corporations, governments and politicians have all been outed as having disinformation trolls roaming Internet sites. But it’s just as likely the annoying troll on your favorite site is simply MENTALLY ILL. When you respond, you’re just feeding his psychopathy. The best advice is, if you see one, don’t feed him.

  17289.  @ldjman9817  You seem confused. Both of my replies are in response to the word salads you posted here. Keep up! Your last post is an outright lie. Seems you are as economical with the truth as Biden is. Why do liberals lie all the time, like Biden does? Why do you fear the truth? FYI - Joe Biden Confused While Recalling Campaign Train Event in Ohio- President Joe Biden on Tuesday struggled to correctly remember the exact date and location of an event in Ohio during his presidential campaign. The president tried to recall the details of the event while speaking virtually at the White House with a child care worker in Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday. “When are you going to see us in Columbus?” the woman asked. “Well I’m going to be back in Columbus,” Biden replied. “I was in Columbus, actually now it’s about literally 35 days or so ago, I came through on a whistle-stop on a train.” The actual whistle-stop event in Ohio, however, was 146 days ago on September 30, and it was in Cleveland, Ohio, not Columbus. Biden’s campaign whistle-stop tour began in Cleveland and stopped in Alliance, Ohio, but never stopped in Columbus, Ohio, according to the schedule. From Alliance, the train tour went on to Pittsburgh and other Pennsylvania cities. Biden did campaign Columbus on March 10, 2020, but not as part of his whistle-stop train tour. “I like Columbus,” Biden continued, adding that even though he was a Democrat, he liked Republican Gov. Mike Dewine’s efforts to slow the spread of the coronavirus in the United States. “I don’t think there’s anything political about this. Some folks are just stepping up and he stepped up in my impression.” He said he hoped that he could visit Columbus again soon. Seems Biden had many, many, campaign events that you lied and said he had none. Hmmm....

  17322.  @littlemissaugie3966  OMG... Try to throttle back your arrogance, hate, and abundant ignorance. The Convention of States is not a partisan issue, in any way, shape, or form. The hate you ooze freely is energy you could spend on worthwhile causes. Such as educating yourself, about our nation, it's history, and the US Constitution, especially Article 5. Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and businesses is a recipe for disaster. What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the U.S. Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention for proposing needed amendments to the Constitution. This process does not require the consent of the federal government in Washington, DC. Why would you not support the Convention of States? Perhaps because you hate much more than you seem to comprehend about our government? This will benefit ALL Americans, regardless of whether you register as an D, a R, or an I. By supporting the Convention of States Project; a national effort to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress. Don't you want your state to be one of the necessary 34 states to pass a resolution calling for this kind of Article V Convention. Nineteen states have already passed legislation to join the Conventionof States. Six more states have passed legislation to join the COS in one house, pending passage in the second house. Additionally, 18 more states have petitions gathering signatures, while you stew in irrational hatred. Now don't you feel silly? For sure, you appear stupid.

  17431.  @kevinanderson1801  Speaking of clowns, isn't it clownish for a majority of the black race to willing allow themselves to be enslaved, by their original oppressors, the democrat party? This was easily accomplished via the democratic plantations located in urban jungles in every large urban area across this nation. Some of your race, merely, replaced their shackles with free rent, free food, and free medical. Your race was freed from slavery by Republicans. You can continue to believe whatever you choose, ranting hysterically, about oppression, while embracing your oppressors, through the effects of the Stockholm syndrome, you are suffering from. You can also belittle anyone who disagrees with your opinions. Facts do not care about your opinions or emotions. The fact remains the Republican party has done more to help blacks gain equal rights, equal treatment under the law,and equal employment opportunities. Meanwhile, some blacks willing allow their enslavers, the DNC, to control every aspect of their lives. I must also point out your hypocrisy. By threatening to enslave the white race, you yourself, do not feel slavery is unjust, wrong, or a crime against humanity. You simply want to subject others to what you clearly claim to be a victim of. So, by your own words, you feel slavery is OK. The real issue is victimhood, and your ability to BMW about mistreatment, real and/or imaginary, yet you state victimization of others is acceptable. The ability to reason with irrational people, such as yourself, is diminished by their inability to recognize their own hypocrisy.

  17527. Federalist Papers No. 10 AMONG the numerous advantages promised by a wellconstructed Union, none deserves to be more accurately developed than its tendency to break and control the violence of faction. The friend of popular governments never finds himself so much alarmed for their character and fate, as when he contemplates their propensity to this dangerous vice. He will not fail, therefore, to set a due value on any plan which, without violating the principles to which he is attached, provides a proper cure for it. The instability, injustice, and confusion introduced into the public councils, have, in truth, been the mortal diseases under which popular governments have everywhere perished; as they continue to be the favorite and fruitful topics from which the adversaries to liberty derive their most specious declamations. The valuable improvements made by the American constitutions on the popular models, both ancient and modern, cannot certainly be too much admired; but it would be an unwarrantable partiality, to contend that they have as effectually obviated the danger on this side, as was wished and expected. Complaints are everywhere heard from our most considerate and virtuous citizens, equally the friends of public and private faith, and of public and personal liberty, that our governments are too unstable, that the public good is disregarded in the conflicts of rival parties, and that measures are too often decided, not according to the rules of justice and the rights of the minor party, but by the superior force of an interested and overbearing majority. However anxiously we may wish that these complaints had no foundation, the evidence, of known facts will not permit us to deny that they are in some degree true. It will be found, indeed, on a candid review of our situation, that some of the distresses under which we labor have been erroneously charged on the operation of our governments; but it will be found, at the same time, that other causes will not alone account for many of our heaviest misfortunes; and, particularly, for that prevailing and increasing distrust of public engagements, and alarm for private rights, which are echoed from one end of the continent to the other. These must be chiefly, if not wholly, effects of the unsteadiness and injustice with which a factious spirit has tainted our public administrations.

  17528. By a faction, I understand a number of citizens, whether amounting to a majority or a minority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adversed to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community. There are two methods of curing the mischiefs of faction: the one, by removing its causes; the other, by controlling its effects. There are again two methods of removing the causes of faction: the one, by destroying the liberty which is essential to its existence; the other, by giving to every citizen the same opinions, the same passions, and the same interests. It could never be more truly said than of the first remedy, that it was worse than the disease. Liberty is to faction what air is to fire, an aliment without which it instantly expires. But it could not be less folly to abolish liberty, which is essential to political life, because it nourishes faction, than it would be to wish the annihilation of air, which is essential to animal life, because it imparts to fire its destructive agency. The second expedient is as impracticable as the first would be unwise. As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed. As long as the connection subsists between his reason and his self-love, his opinions and his passions will have a reciprocal influence on each other; and the former will be objects to which the latter will attach themselves. The diversity in the faculties of men, from which the rights of property originate, is not less an insuperable obstacle to a uniformity of interests. The protection of these faculties is the first object of government. From the protection of different and unequal faculties of acquiring property, the possession of different degrees and kinds of property immediately results; and from the influence of these on the sentiments and views of the respective proprietors, ensues a division of the society into different interests and parties.

  17679.  @rtquest22  The Trump Tax Plan increased the total US tax revenue. Which in turn lessened the amount of borrowing done to elevate the financial hardships faced by many Americans due to Covid, and the policies that were put in place during the pandemic. TBH, Biden and Co(Dems) and a few RINOs have aggrevated the acceleration of inflation, through overspending without regard to the financial health of the American economy, by enacting policies through legislation and EO that will add more than $4.8 Trillion to the deficit over the next 10 years. The Biden Administration and Congress have also added $4.8 Trillion in NEW Debt, in just the past 2 years! President Trump added $6.3 Trillion in debt over 4 years, and added $3 Trillion to our deficit. President Trumps 4 annual budget proposals reduced budget deficits by $2.4 Trillion over the subsequent ten years. According to data from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service comparing outcomes from 2017 to 2018—the first year the tax reform law went into effect—the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced average effective income tax rates for filers in every one of the IRS’s income brackets, with the largest benefits going to lower and middle-income households. (See Table 1 by clicking “Download the PDF” at the top of this page.) For example, after accounting for all tax deductions and credits, filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $40,000 to $50,000 received an average tax cut of 18.2 percent.[4] The IRS data further show that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act appeared to have a strong upward effect on economic mobility. The number of filers with an adjusted gross income of $1 to $25,000 decreased by more than 2 million in just one year, while the number of households reporting incomes higher than $25,000 increased in every income bracket.[5] The most significant increase occurred in the $100,000 to $200,000 bracket, which included more than 1 million additional filers in 2018 than it did in 2017.[6] The IRS data also revealed that higher-income earners paid an even larger share of the total tax burden in 2018 than they did in 2017, indicating that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act may have made the tax code slightly more progressive. This finding contradicts the countless statements made by Democrats over the past four years criticizing TCJA as legislation that favored wealthier filers. In 2017, filers earning $500,000 or more paid 38.9 percent of all personal income tax revenues. In 2018, the same income bracket paid 41.5 percent of total income tax revenues.[7] The available evidence is clear: Based on tax data from 2017 and 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduced taxes for the vast majority of filers, led to substantial improvements in upward economic mobility, and disproportionately benefited working- and middle-class households, many of which experienced tax cuts topping 18 percent to 20 percent. It appears Nancy Pelosi’s claims of “snake oil” peddling were completely unfounded. That's merely a polite way of saying she lied, to you, for her and her party's political gain, and to push forward their green energy platform which will financially hurt the average person, and will benefit only those who are heavily invested in wind, solar, EV, and rare earth mining companies, as she is.

  17692. By a faction, I understand a number of citizens, whether amounting to a majority or a minority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adversed to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community. There are two methods of curing the mischiefs of faction: the one, by removing its causes; the other, by controlling its effects. There are again two methods of removing the causes of faction: the one, by destroying the liberty which is essential to its existence; the other, by giving to every citizen the same opinions, the same passions, and the same interests. It could never be more truly said than of the first remedy, that it was worse than the disease. Liberty is to faction what air is to fire, an aliment without which it instantly expires. But it could not be less folly to abolish liberty, which is essential to political life, because it nourishes faction, than it would be to wish the annihilation of air, which is essential to animal life, because it imparts to fire its destructive agency. The second expedient is as impracticable as the first would be unwise. As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed. As long as the connection subsists between his reason and his self-love, his opinions and his passions will have a reciprocal influence on each other; and the former will be objects to which the latter will attach themselves. The diversity in the faculties of men, from which the rights of property originate, is not less an insuperable obstacle to a uniformity of interests. The protection of these faculties is the first object of government. From the protection of different and unequal faculties of acquiring property, the possession of different degrees and kinds of property immediately results; and from the influence of these on the sentiments and views of the respective proprietors, ensues a division of the society into different interests and parties. The latent causes of faction are thus sown in the nature of man; and we see them everywhere brought into different degrees of activity, according to the different circumstances of civil society. A zeal for different opinions concerning religion, concerning government, and many other points, as well of speculation as of practice; an attachment to different leaders ambitiously contending for pre-eminence and power; or to persons of other descriptions whose fortunes have been interesting to the human passions, have, in turn, divided mankind into parties, inflamed them with mutual animosity, and rendered them much more disposed to vex and oppress each other than to co-operate for their common good. So strong is this propensity of mankind to fall into mutual animosities, that where no substantial occasion presents itself, the most frivolous and fanciful distinctions have been sufficient to kindle their unfriendly passions and excite their most violent conflicts. But the most common and durable source of factions has been the various and unequal distribution of property. Those who hold and those who are without property have ever formed distinct interests in society. Those who are creditors, and those who are debtors, fall under a like discrimination. A landed interest, a manufacturing interest, a mercantile interest, a moneyed interest, with many lesser interests, grow up of necessity in civilized nations, and divide them into different classes, actuated by different sentiments and views. The regulation of these various and interfering interests forms the principal task of modern legislation, and involves the spirit of party and faction in the necessary and ordinary operations of the government. No man is allowed to be a judge in his own cause, because his interest would certainly bias his judgment, and, not improbably, corrupt his integrity. With equal, nay with greater reason, a body of men are unfit to be both judges and parties at the same time; yet what are many of the most important acts of legislation, but so many judicial determinations, not indeed concerning the rights of single persons, but concerning the rights of large bodies of citizens? And what are the different classes of legislators but advocates and parties to the causes which they determine? Is a law proposed concerning private debts? It is a question to which the creditors are parties on one side and the debtors on the other. Justice ought to hold the balance between them. Yet the parties are, and must be, themselves the judges; and the most numerous party, or, in other words, the most powerful faction must be expected to prevail. Shall domestic manufactures be encouraged, and in what degree, by restrictions on foreign manufactures? are questions which would be differently decided by the landed and the manufacturing classes, and probably by neither with a sole regard to justice and the public good. The apportionment of taxes on the various descriptions of property is an act which seems to require the most exact impartiality; yet there is, perhaps, no legislative act in which greater opportunity and temptation are given to a predominant party to trample on the rules of justice. Every shilling with which they overburden the inferior number, is a shilling saved to their own pockets. FEDERALIST PAPER #

  17820. The Green New Deal would drive a stake through the heart of our nation’s economy. The cost is staggering,  if fully implemented, the proposal would cost up to $93 trillion over the next decade. That’s more than 90 percent of the combined wealth of all American households. It would cost every American family as much as $65,000 per year — more than the average household makes in a year. One of the key tenets of this proposal is a mandate to move to 100 percent renewable energy. Doing so would eliminate abundant, affordable and reliable energy that currently powers three out of five U.S. homes. Even if it were possible — and it isn’t — the massive costs would be passed directly to consumers in the form of higher electricity and heating bills. One estimate concludes that households could see their energy bills spike by as much as $3,800 a year. Eliminating American production of coal, natural gas and oil would be a big mistake. We’d still need these sources of energy, meaning we would become dependent on the rest of the world. Solar and wind power provide 8 % of our electricity. We should continue to increase use of renewables, but there are times the wind doesn’t blow and the sun doesn’t shome. The Green New Deal would be a gift to Russian President Vladimir Putin, weakening our economy and making us dependent on foreign energy. Instead, we should support more American innovation. The earth’s climate is changing and it requires a global solution. In 2017, America generated just 13 % of global emissions. China and India produced 34 percent. We must continue to develop and deploy innovative and reliable clean energy solutions around the world. In the past year, Congress passed laws to support advanced nuclear power and carbon-capture technologies. Clean, reliable nuclear power currently provides 63% of American emission free energy. Carbon capture is a cutting-edge technology that can even remove carbon directly from the air, while developing construction and medical uses for it. American innovation holds the key to reducing emissions, not unworkable and unaffordable proposals like the Green New Deal. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2019/03/04/green-new-deal-unworkable-unaffordable-john-barrasso-editorials-debates/3060139002/

  17869.  @johnbeechy  Your trite and poorly written/ punctuated statement does not add anything worthwhile to the conversation. Taxes are not equivalent to banning the ownership of firearms by the populace. Which, BTW, the right to bear arms is guaranteed by our 2nd Amendment rights. Care to try to discredit these quotes as well, in your 3rd grade level, or below, writings? In which you fail to use proper punctuation, spelling, and capitalization? Patrick Henry- “Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined.” George Mason -To disarm the people…[i]s the most effectual way to enslave them.” James Madison -“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country.” -“The ultimate authority, wherever the derivative may be found, resides in the people alone.” Noah Webster -"Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States.” Samuel Adams -"The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms.” Richard Henry Lee -"A militia when properly formed are in fact the people themselves…and include, according to the past and general usuage of the states, all men capable of bearing arms…  “To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them.” Thomas Jefferson -“I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.” “What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms.” -“The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes…. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” -"The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.”

  18070. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  18306. Biden is racing at blinding speed to destroy every vestige of our representative republic. He’s attempting to undo American accountability in elections through his support of HR1. He’s attempting to undo our economic foundations with massive printing (read that: devaluing) of our currency. He’s attempting to destroy free enterprise and job growth with coming massive tax increases. He’s attempting to take away individual liberties with proposed mask mandates, and desired lockdowns. He supports any attempt to end the Senate filibuster—in order to push through horrific laws by the thinnest margins ever attempted. He’s attempting to overwhelm our security at our borders by encouraging 100’s of 1000’s of unverifiable persons of unknown origins to cross our borders without scrutiny nor penalty. He wants the police weakened. He is pledging to take guns away from law abiding owners. And he wants to pervert the justice system so dramatically that the Constitution becomes diluted and unrecognizable. His latest strategic ploy- Biden officially commenced a process to attempt to “reform the Supreme Court.” His basis for why? Because the judicial system is “out of whack.” Which I can only presume is very technical language for, “my executive orders appear to be headed for trouble once they are challenged.” This is a legitimate worry to someone who is illegitimately writing laws as a dictator and expecting the plebs to kneel in obedience. One of his predecessor’s most pronounced accomplishments was placing hundreds of originalist jurists at every level of the federal courts. Biden’s former boss left hundreds of vacancies open, and President Trump plugged the holes in a little over three years. The left witnessed how quickly the progressive agenda can be stopped in a healthy constitutional republic. It’s why they exploited the CoVid19 crisis to change election standards by any means necessary in swing states. And it’s why they are calling every election reform attempting to bring transparency and integrity back to the process as “racist.” They literally have nothing else.

  18688.  @hm3drake35  Achieved a record-setting economic comeback by rejecting blanket lockdowns. An October 2020 Gallup survey found 56 percent of Americans said they were better off during a pandemic than four years prior. During the third quarter of 2020, the economy grew at a rate of 33.1 percent – the most rapid GDP growth ever recorded. Since coronavirus lockdowns ended, the economy has added back over 12 million jobs, more than half the jobs lost. Jobs have been recovered 23 times faster than the previous administration’s recovery. Unemployment fell to 6.7 percent in December, from a pandemic peak of 14.7 percent in April – beating expectations of well over 10 percent unemployment through the end of 2020. Under the previous administration, it took 49 months for the unemployment rate to fall from 10 percent to under 7 percent compared to just 3 months for the Trump Administration. Since April, the Hispanic unemployment rate has fallen by 9.6 percent, Asian-American unemployment by 8.6 percent, and Black American unemployment by 6.8 percent. 80 percent of small businesses are now open, up from just 53 percent in April. Small business confidence hit a new high. Homebuilder confidence reached an all-time high, and home sales hit their highest reading since December 2006. Manufacturing optimism nearly doubled. Household net worth rose $7.4 trillion in Q2 2020 to $112 trillion, an all-time high. Home prices hit an all-time record high. The United States rejected crippling lockdowns that crush the economy and inflict countless public health harms and instead safely reopened its economy. Business confidence is higher in America than in any other G7 or European Union country.

  18999.  @williamkurzenberger6414  Biden may have had a few TMI's ( mild strokes ). From a medical point of view, I believe he is suffering from the long term effects of two previous brain anyuerisms, and two brain anyuerism surgeries. The first surgery involved locating the anyuerism, removing part of his skull, cutting tissue to remove the anyuerism, removing the anyuerism, then replacing the removed skull, and stitching everything back together, to the best of the surgeons ability. His second surgery was an anyuerism clipping, which is much less invasive, yet still is capable of producing undesirable, long term, side effects. The first surgery is known to result in many long lasting, irreversible, cognitive issues, which only worsen with age progression. Such as : Persistent difficulties with focus, memory, or cognition (such as: language processing, organizational skills, concentration, decision making, and higher-level thinking skills) can be a challenge. Survivors should seek out assessment from a neuropsychologist or a speech-language pathologist to determine their level of cognitive functioning, life skills, and related issues during activities of everyday life. Sometimes, family members who see them daily will be the first to notice any subtle changes or slight deficits that may not be obvious to them or others. Often, some deficits become apparent only after they return to a more demanding lifestyle. Some — but not all — survivors may experience the following: -Physical and mental fatigue. -Chronic headache or head pain (mainly ruptured aneurysms) -Concentration headaches. -Vision deficits: partial or complete blindness, or peripheral vision deficits -Cognitive problems (such as short-term memory difficulties, decreased  concentration, perception problems) -Articulation and speech-delivery problems -Behavioral changes such as increased anger and willingness to challenge others to argue or physically fight. -Loss of balance and coordination -Arm or leg weakness. Biden, without any doubt is showing many tendencies of most of the aforementioned side effects of his anyuerism surgeries. The clock is ticking, and these side effects will only worsen as he ages.

  19082.  @Bhubnipz  Apparently you have poor reading comprehension. Try reading it again. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration has blocked a new Advanced Placement course on African American studies from being taught in high schools, saying it violates state law and is historically inaccurate. The state education department rejected the program in a letter last week to the College Board, which oversees AP classes. Florida education officials did not specify exactly what content the state found objectionable but said, “As presented, the content of this course is inexplicably contrary to Florida law and significantly lacks educational value.” "In the future, should College Board be willing to come back to the table with lawful, historically accurate content, (the education department) will always be willing to reopen the discussion," the letter continued. In a statement, the College Board said, “Like all new AP courses, AP African American Studies is undergoing a rigorous, multi-year pilot phase, collecting feedback from teachers, students, scholars and policymakers.” “The process of piloting and revising course frameworks is a standard part of any new AP course, and frameworks often change significantly as a result,” the statement read. 1. This class violates Florida state law.. 2. This class significantly lacks educational value. 3. In the future, should the college board be willing to come back to the table with lawful, historically accurate content, (the Florida Education department will always be willing to reopen the discussion. 4. Read how the College board explains how this is a pilot course. As per usual, will be revised according to feed back received. 5.They have received feed back and are unwilling to make any changes at this time.

  19371.  @willybones3890  Socialism is a mere stepping stone into Communism. Q & A 1. What is the difference between Democratic Socialism and Socialism? A. Socialism= when the government takes over the means of production and distribution of goods and redistributes the wealth, by giving away free stuff. Democratic Socialism= when the government takes over the people's profits through taxes and redistributes the wealth, by giving away free stuff. These are the same. The only difference being, in Democratic Socialism people choose Democratic Socialism instead of being forced into it. Similar to the difference between suicide and murder. 2. Where has Socialism ever worked? A. Nowhere. Every where it has been tried, Socialism has brought Oppression, Starvation, and death. 3. Who pays for the free stuff? A. First they tax the Rich. Next they tax the kind of Rich. Then they tax the middle class. Then we are all equal, equally poor and the government is in control of all your money. 4. What will stop Democratic Socialism from turning into full blown Socialism? A. NOTHING. There is no identifiable line or mark on the continuum of Socialism, from moving from one end of the spectrum to the other. Once you give government the power; to take your money and give it to someone else, the power to tell you what to do, the power to tell us what our fair share is, it is just a matter of time until it is full blown Socialism. 5. Why would we want that here, in these United States? A. In the last 100 years, 100 million people have been killed by Socialistic regimes and governments. Socialism is the deadliest ideology the world has ever known. Biden/Harris and the democrat majority in Congress are selling America into Socialism. They must be stopped, before the daily damage they are inflicting is too massive to recover from.

  19456. @Duane W You see, despite successfully making payouts to retired workers for 80 years and counting, Social Security is in some pretty big trouble. According to the 2019 report from the Social Security Board of Trustees, the program is facing an estimated $13.9 trillion cash shortfall between 2035 and 2093. If lawmakers on Capitol Hill don't resolve this cash deficit, benefit cuts of up to 23% could soon be passed along to retired workers. Biden has threatened to cut Social Security throughout his tenure in Congress. Biden's previous actions suggest Social Security cuts aren't completely off the table Though I believe it's fair to consider that Biden's views on a number of topics have evolved over time, including Social Security, he's also had a number of instances where he's been implicated with direct or indirect cuts to the Social Security program. For example, in 1995, while speaking to members of Congress, then-Senator Biden suggested the idea of freezing Social Security's outlays (this is the clip being played in Sanders' tweet). Here's the full citation of what Biden had to say on the Senate floor: "For example, I'm going to go on record. I'm up for re-election this year, and I'm going to remind everybody what I did at home, which is going to cost me politically. When I argued that we should freeze federal spending, I meant Social Security, as well. I meant Medicare and Medicaid. I meant veterans benefits. I meant every single solitary thing in the government. And I not only tried it once -- I tried it twice, I tried it a third time, and I tried it a fourth time. Somebody has to tell me in here how we're going to do this hard work without dealing with any of those sacred cows, some deserving more protection than others." Biden now denies making this speech. Furthermore, according to a report from NBC News in 2007, then-presidential candidate Joe Biden was willing to consider a bipartisan solution to resolve Social Security's imminent cash shortfall. This meant being open to the idea of gradually raising the full retirement age, or the age at which a retiree becomes eligible to receive their full monthly payout from Social Security. Biden also played an instrumental role in the payroll-tax holiday that was passed along toward the beginning of the previous decade. As the lead negotiator between Democrats and Republicans at the congressional level, Biden helped orchestrate a two-year holiday in payroll tax collection that saved taxpayers $112 billion. However, in the process, he also cost the Social Security program the same amount of much-needed revenue, despite ongoing warnings from the trustees' report about insufficient revenue over the long run (75 years).

  19836.  @charlesvandenburgh7754  President Trump's agreement was 2020, not 2018. You have proven honesty and facts are not important to you, by this statement. Here are the facts. The Trump administration in February 2020 negotiated a withdrawal agreement with the Taliban that excluded the Afghan government, freed 5,000 imprisoned Taliban soldiers and set a date certain of May 1, 2021, for the final withdrawal. And the Trump administration kept to the pact, reducing U.S. troop levels from about 13,000 to 2,500. Zabihullah Mujahid, the Taliban spokesman for nearly two decades, appears at a press conference in Kabul, Afghanistan, Aug. 17. (Marcus Yam/Los Angeles Times) Biden delayed the May 1 withdrawal date that he inherited. But ultimately his administration pushed ahead with a plan to withdraw by Aug. 31, despite obvious signs that the Taliban wasn’t complying with the agreement and had a stated goal to create an “Islamic government” in Afghanistan after the U.S. left, even if it meant it had to “continue our war to achieve our goal.” Biden assured Americans, that a Taliban takeover of Afghanistan was “not inevitable,” and denied that U.S. intelligence assessed that the Afghan government would likely collapse. But it did — and quickly! The massive failure, and loss of life caused by TaliBiden's failed withdrawal, is on Biden's hands. He, DID NOT, follow the advice of General's, or US Intelligence agencies. The blood is on TaliBiden's hands alone. President Trump had been a civilian for eight months, at this time. Your talking points are lies, and you are too stupid to comprehend the fallacy of your statements. GTFOOH

  19866. GNF timeline ten years to destroy America. GND goals: Ban affordable energy. GND calls for the elimination of all fossil fuel energy production, the lifeblood of American industry and life, which includes not only all oil but also natural gas — one of the cheapest sources of American energy, and one of the reasons the United States has been able to lead the world in carbon-emissions reduction. Eliminate nuclear energy. The GND also calls for eliminating all nuclear power, one of the only productive and somewhat affordable “clean” energy sources available to us, in 11 years. This move would purge around 20 percent of American energy generation so you can rely on intermittent wind for your energy needs. Eliminate 99 percent of cars. To be fair, under the GND, everyone will need to retrofit their cars with Flintstones-style foot holes or pedals for cycling. The authors state that the GND would like to replace every “combustion-engine vehicle” — trucks, airplanes, boats, and 99 percent of cars — within ten years. Charging stations for electric vehicles will be built “everywhere,” though how power plants will provide the energy needed to charge them is a mystery. Gut and rebuild every building in America. Markey and Cortez want to “retrofit every building in America” with “state of the art energy efficiency.” I repeat, “every building in America.” That includes every home, factory, and apartment building, which will all need, for starters, to have their entire working heating and cooling systems ripped out and replaced with…well, with whatever technology Democrats are going invent in their committee hearings, I guess. Eliminate air travel. GND calls for building out “highspeed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary.” Good luck Hawaii! California’s high-speed boondoggle is already in $100 billion dollars of debt, and looks to be one of the state’s biggest fiscal disasters ever. Amtrak runs billions of dollars in the red (though, as we’ll see, trains that run on fossil fuels will also be phased out). Imagine growing that business model out to every state in America? A government-guaranteed job. The bill promises the United States government will provide every single American with a job that includes a “family-sustaining wage, family and medical leave, vacations, and a pension.” You can imagine that those left in the private sector would be funding these through some unspecified “massive” taxation. On the bright side, when you’re foraging for food, your savings will be worthless. Free education for life. GND promises free college or trade schools for every American. A salubrious diet. The GND promises the government will provide “healthy food” to every American (because there are no beans or lettuce in your local supermarket, I guess). A house. The GND promises that the government will provide, “safe, affordable, adequate housing” for every American citizen. I call dibs on an affordable Adams Morgan townhouse. Thank you, Ocasio-Cortez. Free money. The GND aims to provide, and I am not making this up, “economic security” for all who are “unable or unwilling” to work. Just to reiterate: if you’re unwilling to work, the rest of us will have your back. Bonus insanity: Ban meat. Ocasio-Cortez admits that we can’t get zero emissions in 10 years “because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.” The only way to get rid of farting cows is to get rid of beef.

  20279.  @1133saginaw  Higher costs of energy, equates to higher cost of everything across the board, was the original posting. This statement is factual. You seem bent on dragging non related issues into a conversation. That's what the left does, bc facts don't support their opinions. In clear and concise terms explain why families earning $125k -$400k yearly need a 45% reimbursement of their child care cost? This issue caused the Republicans, to ask for it to be removed from the CCTC bill. Democrats declined to accommodated this logical request. This is why Biden's bill was not supported by Republicans in Congress. In Biden's plan, which is set to cost $1.8 trillion over the course of 5 years, Biden proposes creating a partnership with states to provide “free, high-quality, accessible and inclusive preschool” to all 3- and 4-year-olds, according to a statement from the White House. The administration is calling on Congress to spend about $200 billion to implement the program, but estimates that universal preschool will benefit 5 million children and save the average family $13,000 in lifetime costs. Biden’s plan also proposes allocating $225 billion to help families with children up to age 13 pay for child care. Under the plan, families earning less than 1.5 times their state median income levels would not pay for child care and those earning above that threshold would pay no more than 7% of earnings. Biden is calling for a permanent expansion of the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit (CDCTC), which allows households to receive a tax credit for up to $4,000 for one child or $8,000 for two or more children children under age 13. Families making less than $125,000 a year would be eligible to receive a tax credit for as much as 50% of their spending on child care, while families making between $125,000 and $400,000 would receive 45% of their spending on child care.

  20329. @Bob Anon Again, you were not paying attention. A vote on Garland was not held using what became known as the Biden Rule. So you can blame Joke Biden for a vote not being held on M. Garland. A federal lawsuit was filed to compel McConnell to hold a vote on Garland. It was thrown out because a judge said the plaintiff, as an ordinary voter, had no standing to sue. For his part, McConnell argued that the Democrats had at least contemplated a similar tactic back in 1992, when Obama's vice president, Joe Biden, was chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and mused about urging President George H.W. Bush to withhold any nominees to the high court until the end of the "political season." At the time, the Senate had just been through a bruising battle over the 1991 confirmation of Justice Clarence Thomas. As it happened, no vacancy occurred in 1992. But McConnell and others referred to the "BIDEN RULE" nonetheless in justifying the blockade of Garland. With or without such justification, McConnell's blockade was doubly effective just as a power move. First, it prevented the seating of a Democratic president's choice. Had he been considered, Garland might have pulled a few majority-party members across the aisle. Supreme Court nominees nearly always win at least some votes from the party opposing the president, and Garland had a strong law-and-order history. Had he performed well on TV, voting against him might have been harder — especially for Republicans seeking re-election in competitive states. Second, and more important, the vacancy became a powerful motivator for conservative voters in the fall. Many saw a vote for Trump as a means to keep Scalia's seat away from the liberals and give the appointment to someone who promised to name anti-abortion justices supportive of Second Amendment gun rights.

  20330. @Bob Anon Why do you have an issue with using the "BIDEN RULE," you three day old, newborn troll? I have already answered this question. And, again you were NOT paying attention, or are simply unable to comprehend. I could continue to educate you, but without your participation my efforts are futile. La la Land will be hit just as hard by Democrats policy, as the real 🌎. Imbeciles will not escape unscathed. It also has been argued that the Democrats caved to McConnell's pressure tactics in the Garland case. They should have found a way to force a vote or "shut down the Senate" to light a spark. So it was safer, in the judgments of spring and summer 2016, to let the Republicans look intransigent and unfair and hope somebody noticed. Perhaps the injustice to Garland would help Democrats win seats in supposedly blue states such as Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, and even red ones such as Missouri and North Carolina. Instead, the country moved on. There were highly contentious primaries in both parties and plenty of other news to preoccupy everyone. Besides, and lest we forget, the Senate Democrats and most everyone else thought they had an insurance policy on the Scalia vacancy. The assumption was that Hillary Clinton would be elected. Clinton, who did, after all, win the popular vote by several million votes, might even have helped carry in a Democratic Senate. And then she could have renominated Garland, or someone younger and more liberal. As it sorted out, the Democrats were cautious, overconfident and misinformed about the mood of the country. They lost in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Missouri and North Carolina, winding up still in the minority. That left them powerless to stop McConnell from eliminating the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees in 2017, paving the way to confirmation of Trump's first choice and probably his second.

  20418. If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” — Thomas Jefferson, letter to Charles Yancey, 1816.  I fully acknowledge that to many this post will smack of elitism, but the facts of the matter stand irrefutable. Ignorant, uninformed and irrational voters constitutes the single greatest threat to the success of modern democratic institutions. In a 1947 speech to the House of Commons, Winston Churchill is said to have quipped, “…democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried…” (Langworth 2009). What is it about democracy that renders it so imperfect? While numerous arguments against democracy have sprung up from time to time, nearly all criticisms have noted one great flaw in particular. As John F. Kennedy put it, “the ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.” Winston Churchill based his skepticism of democracy on the very same thing stating, “the best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” Indeed, the very founding thinkers of the democratic institution feared the ignorance of voters. Aristotle proclaimed, “it… is dangerous for men of this sort to share in the highest offices, as injustice may lead them into wrongdoing, and thoughtlessness into error” (Aristotle 1946). The simple fact of the matter is that “almost every democratic theorist or democratic political actor sees an informed electorate as essential to good democratic practice” (Hochschild 2010).

  20434.  @quickrelaxation535  The Declaration of Independence hands us the only viable solution to Biden's failures- When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

  20896. Biden's articles of impeachment include: ARTICLE 1: ABUSE OF POWER: BRIBERY, HOBBS ACT EXTORTION, & HONEST SERVICES FRAUD Robert Hunter Biden (Hunter Biden) and James Biden sold access to then Vice President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. (Joe Biden) while he was in office from 2009 to 2017 and sold promised access to a future Biden Presidential Administration while he was out of office from 2017 to 2021. Hunter and James appear to have promised official actions by Joe Biden in return for payments and business opportunities from foreign and domestic business partners. Joe Biden assisted by making appearances, phone calls, meeting with the “business partners,” and knowingly allowing his family members to promise access to him and actions by him in furtherance of these schemes. Hunter Biden threatened business partners that official actions could be taken against them if they did not meet terms or make payments. In at least one instance, Hunter implied that Joe Biden was aware of these threats and willing to assist in enforcing the threats, potentially through official actions. Hunter Biden attempted to enrich himself and the Biden family by threatening official actions from his father, who he claims was willing to assist in the scheme.  These acts are abuses of power as well as the following federal crimes or conspiracy to commit the following federal crimes: Bribery of Public Officials, 18 USC § 201; Hobbs Act Extortion “Under Color of Official Right,” 18 USC § 1951; Honest Services Fraud relating to use of official position, 18 USC § 1346.

  21404. Ian Sams, spokesperson for the White House impeachment war room, wrote a letter to be sent to news organizations such as The New York Times, Fox News, the Associated Press, CBS News and others, CNN first reported. "It's time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies," Sams wrote, according to the letter. In the letter, Sams said an impeachment inquiry with no supporting evidence should "set off alarm bells for news networks." "This is not OK," journalist Matthew Keys tweeted. "The White House should not be encouraging, influencing or interfering in the editorial strategies of America's newsrooms, including CNN and the New York Times." "Now, any time the media DOES try to hold Republican lawmakers to account, those lawmakers can simply counter by questioning whether it's actual journalism or something encouraged by the Biden administration," Keys wrote. "All this demonstrates is that the Biden administration has lost confidence in the news media – which I guess mirrors public sentiment over the last few years, too." "The problem is they're trying to influence coverage. The government should never do that. It is inappropriate," Keys wrote. McCarthy on Tuesday said the House Oversight Committee's investigation found a "culture of corruption" around the Biden family as Republicans probe the business dealings of Biden's son, Hunter Biden, from before the Democrat took office. "These are allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption, and they warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives," McCarthy said. "That's why today I am directing our House committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden."

  21607.  @plandemicnineteen2059  Your problem is, your lack of ability to read and comprehend the meaning of the words you have read. I will reiterate my post, adding more from the D of I. Try understanding how incomprehensive of it's meaning, your statement is..... OMG dude.... We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world

  21761. U.S. inflation is now higher than abroad One way to illustrate what has happened with U.S. inflation is to compare it with the average rate of inflation across a group of OECD economies: Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. We rely on core inflation measures, which remove the more volatile food and energy prices. To align with what is available in all the countries in our study, we use consumer price index (CPI) inflation instead of the personal consumption expenditures price index, the preferred measure of inflation used by the Federal Reserve. The blue line in Figure 1 displays the year-over-year percent changes in U.S. core CPI inflation. The figure also shows the median (red line) and the range between the 25% and 75% largest values (also known as the interquartile range and shown by the shaded area) of inflation for our OECD sample. A tighter range indicates that most OECD countries in our sample experienced inflation rates similar to each other. The figure shows that, before the pandemic, U.S. core CPI inflation remained, on average, about 1 percentage point above the OECD sample average. The small difference between U.S. and OECD inflation during this period is well known as many of the OECD countries struggled to get inflation up to target following the Global Financial Crisis and subsequent euro-area sovereign debt crisis. By early 2021, however, U.S. inflation increasingly diverged from the other countries. U.S. core CPI grew from below 2% to above 4% and stayed elevated throughout 2021. In contrast, our OECD sample average increased at a more gradual rate from around 1% to 2.5% by the end of 2021. These differences in inflation readings cannot be explained by measurement issues.

  22500.  @nzfreeski  Well, the facts prove you are totally wrong, and are using sophistry to make an invalid point. Congressional Democrats have argued, and according to many on the left, the wealthy have benefited disproportionately and unfairly from the 2017 Tax Reform Law passed by Republicans and signed by former President Trump. The latest data, however, proves that claim is pure MYTHOLOGY. Income data published by the IRS clearly show that on average all income brackets benefited substantially from the Republicans’ tax reform law, with the biggest beneficiaries being working and middle-income filers, not the top 1 percent, as so many Democrats have argued. A careful analysis of the IRS tax data, one that includes the effects of tax credits and other reforms to the 2017 Tax Reform Law/ tax code, shows that filers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $15,000 to $50,000 enjoyed an average tax cut of 16 percent to 26 percent in 2018, the first year Republicans’ Tax Cuts and Jobs Act went into effect and the most recent year for which data is available. Filers who earned $50,000 to $100,000 received a tax break of about 15 percent to 17 percent, and those earning $100,000 to $500,000 in adjusted gross income saw their personal income taxes cut by around 11 percent to 13 percent. By comparison, no income group with an AGI of at least $500,000 received an average tax cut exceeding 9 percent, and the average tax cut for brackets starting at $1 million was less than 6 percent. (For more detailed data, see my table published here.) That means most middle-income and working-class earners enjoyed a tax cut that was at least double the size of tax cuts received by households earning $1 million or more.

  22728. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration has blocked a new Advanced Placement course on African American studies from being taught in high schools, saying it violates state law and is historically inaccurate. The state education department rejected the program in a letter last week to the College Board, which oversees AP classes. Florida education officials did not specify exactly what content the state found objectionable but said, “As presented, the content of this course is inexplicably contrary to Florida law and significantly lacks educational value.” “In the future, should College Board be willing to come back to the table with lawful, historically accurate content, (the education department) will always be willing to reopen the discussion," the letter continued.

In a statement, the College Board said, “Like all new AP courses, AP African American Studies is undergoing a rigorous, multi-year pilot phase, collecting feedback from teachers, students, scholars and policymakers.” “The process of piloting and revising course frameworks is a standard part of any new AP course, and frameworks often change significantly as a result,” the statement read.

  22993.  @rob3539  *In regards to the recent USSC ruling in Trump vs Vance, again the USSC upheld the Constitution, and are not doing Trump's bidding as you erroneously suggest. The US Supreme Court Held: Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclu- sive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts. (a) This case is the first criminal prosecution in our Nation’s history of a former President for actions taken during his Presidency. Deter- mining whether and under what circumstances such a prosecution may proceed requires careful assessment of the scope of Presidential power under the Constitution. The nature of that power requires that a former President have some immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts during his tenure in office. At least with respect to the President’s exercise of his core constitutional powers, this immunity must be absolute. As for his remaining official actions, he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity. (1) Article II of the Constitution vests “executive Power” in “a President of the United States of America.” §1, cl. 1. The President has duties of “unrivaled gravity and breadth.” Trump v. Vance, 591 U. S. 786, 800. His authority to act necessarily “stem[s] either from an act of Congress or from the Constitution itself.” Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 343 U. S. 579, 585. In the latter case, the Presi- dent’s authority is sometimes “conclusive and preclusive.” Id., at 638 (Jackson, J., concurring). When the President exercises such author- ity, Congress cannot act on, and courts cannot examine, the Presi- dent’s actions. It follows that an Act of Congress—either a specific one targeted at the President or a generally applicable one—may not crim- inalize the President’s actions within his exclusive constitutional power. Neither may the courts adjudicate a criminal prosecution that examines such Presidential actions. The Court thus concludes that the President is absolutely immune from criminal prosecution for con- duct within his exclusive sphere of constitutional authority. Pp. 6–9. (2) Not all of the President’s official acts fall within his “conclusive and preclusive” authority. The reasons that justify the President’s ab- solute immunity from criminal prosecution for acts within the scope of his exclusive constitutional authority do not extend to conduct in areas where his authority is shared with Congress. To determine the Presi- dent’s immunity in this context, the Court looks primarily to the Fram- ers’ design of the Presidency within the separation of powers, precedent on Presidential immunity.*

  23032. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  23044.  @MikeW165  Press ReleasePublished: Mar 30, 2023 Wrap-Up: President Biden’s Unprecedented Assault on American Energy Increased Costs on American Consumers and Businesses WASHINGTON—The Subcommittee on Economic Growth, Energy Policy, and Regulatory Affairs held a hearing yesterday titled “Fueling Unaffordability: How the Biden Administration’s Policies Catalyzed Global Energy Scarcity and Compounded Inflation.” At the hearing, subcommittee members identified how the Biden Administration’s war on domestic energy production suppressed U.S. production and drove increased fuel costs and inflation. Key Takeaways: President Biden has conducted an unprecedented assault on our nation’s ability to produce energy by shutting down the Keystone XL pipeline, implementing a moratorium on oil and gas production on federal lands, draining U.S. oil reserves, and enacting energy policies that increased costs for Americans and killed thousands of high-paying American jobs. In his opening testimony, Dr. Oliver McPherson-Smith, Director for Energy, Trade, and Environmental Policy at the American Consumer Institute Center for Citizen Research said, “Since January 2021, the Federal Executive Branch of government has sought to inhibit and disincentivize the domestic production and refining of fossil fuels.” Americans with low, middle, and fixed incomes suffer the most under high inflation and the Administration’s war on domestic energy production. “Since January 2021, President Biden and Democrats in Congress have taken over 125 actions aimed at shutting out the use and development of the very energy resources we need more of, not less. Suppressing domestic supply and setting America on a path towards energy scarcity has exacerbated inflation and made costs skyrocket,” testified Mandy Gunasekara, Director at the Center for Energy & Conservation at the Independent Women’s Forum in her opening statement. “Low-income Americans are the hardest hit by high energy prices. They’re being forced to choose between heating their homes and putting food on the table.” By suppressing U.S. energy production, the Biden Administration left American energy prices vulnerable to a global energy shortage. “The absence of [Strategic Petroleum Reserve] oil left the American economy and American families vulnerable to international oil market fluctuations,” said Dr. McPherson-Smith.

  23691.  @Hypocrisywatch1  The 2020 election was not stolen, but a plan to disqualify Trump from running would ensure that the 2024 contest would be.  The best way to keep President Donald Trump from office isn't to use questionable legal moves, but to defeat them at the polls. Frustration with the political process can lead many otherwise rational people to look for a magic solution to important problems. We saw this earlier this year in the “one weird trick” to raise the debt ceiling — a fanciful proposal in some circles to mint a trillion-dollar coin and spend all our problems away. Now we are seeing it again in the suggestion by serious legal scholars that states “use the 14th Amendment” to remove Donald Trump from the ballot in 2024 because of his role in encouraging the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riots. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment says that anyone who “shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion” or “given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof” is prohibited from holding public office again. What this meant when it was written in 1866 is not hard to guess: If you were a state or federal official who supported the Confederacy in any meaningful way, you were barred from office. The reasoning is understandable — people who had just broken their oaths to the Constitution should not have been put right back in charge of the government. However, Congress also allowed for that restriction to be removed by a two-thirds vote of each house. With an eye toward sectional reconciliation, legislators did exactly that in the Amnesty Act of 1872, which allowed all but the highest-ranking rebels to have their rights restored. Last month, former federal judge J. Michael Luttig and law professor Laurence H. Tribe argued in an essay in the Atlantic that this provision applies to Trump every bit as much as it applied to Jefferson Davis. They cite as evidence a much longer treatment of the question by professors William Baude and Michael Stokes Paulsen in a forthcoming law review article. It’s true that the amendment’s authors did not only exclude rebels from the war that ended a year earlier; they wrote generic language that covered any “insurrection or rebellion” against the United States. If a new civil war or revolution were to start tomorrow, this text would apply. So, case closed? Not really. As with every idea, execution is key, and here’s where the Section 3 gang runs into trouble. Rioters loyal to President Donald Trump at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in Washington. Liberal groups are trying to end Trump's attempt to return to the White House by arguing that he is no longer eligible to be president after trying to overturn the 2020 election results. In 1866, everyone knew who had fought for the Confederacy (they had uniforms and everything). Ex-rebels did not deny what they had done. Their culpability was not disputed. Today, who counts as a “rebel” is less obvious. Should any candidate be removed from a ballot in any state because some voter accuses him of being a rebel or insurrectionist? That is essentially what Luttig and Tribe suggest, with all the inevitable court challenges that would follow. When some state official “disqualifies Trump from appearing on a ballot or declares him eligible, that determination will assuredly be challenged in court,” they write. And “such a case will inevitably land before the Supreme Court, where it will in turn test the judiciary’s ability to disentangle constitutional interpretation from political temptation.” Does that sound like a reasonable way to run an election? I hesitate to say that there is a potential for abuse. It would be more accurate to say I guarantee this process would be abused. Some voters would challenge Trump in every state — but some other voters would challenge Biden in all 50, too. Every candidate would face a passel of mostly frivolous lawsuits. Even if you think Trump is an insurrectionist, the flaws of this process should be obvious. Fortunately, Congress in 1866 told us who would write the rules to enforce the 14th Amendment: itself. Section 5 of that same amendment is very clear: “The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.” If Congress wants to create a procedure to preclear all candidates’ loyalty credentials, it can do so — but it never has. (Congress invoked it once on an ad hoc basis in 1919, to deny a House seat to a socialist

  24039.  @The00Dude  Furthermore, President Trump achieved a record-setting economic comeback by rejecting blanket lockdowns. An October 2020 Gallup survey found 56 percent of Americans said they were better off during a pandemic than four years prior. During the third quarter of 2020, the economy grew at a rate of 33.1 percent – the most rapid GDP growth ever recorded. Since coronavirus lockdowns ended, the economy has added back over 12 million jobs, more than half the jobs lost. Jobs have been recovered 23 times faster than the previous administration’s recovery. Unemployment fell to 6.7 percent in December, from a pandemic peak of 14.7 percent in April – beating expectations of well over 10 percent unemployment through the end of 2020. Under the previous administration, it took 49 months for the unemployment rate to fall from 10 percent to under 7 percent compared to just 3 months for the Trump Administration. Since April, the Hispanic unemployment rate has fallen by 9.6 percent, Asian-American unemployment by 8.6 percent, and Black American unemployment by 6.8 percent. 80 percent of small businesses are now open, up from just 53 percent in April. Small business confidence hit a new high. Homebuilder confidence reached an all-time high, and home sales hit their highest reading since December 2006. Manufacturing optimism nearly doubled. Household net worth rose $7.4 trillion in Q2 2020 to $112 trillion, an all-time high. Home prices hit an all-time record high. The United States rejected crippling lockdowns that crush the economy and inflict countless public health harms and instead safely reopened its economy. Business confidence is higher in America than in any other G7 or European Union country.

  24077. When it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness – keeping his promises – Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office Trump has done exactly what he promised he would do. Trump kept his promise to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. He promised to impose a travel ban on countries that he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through – not once but twice. Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump also pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 – more than any recent president at this point in his administration. Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms, and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.  During the campaign, he told African American voters, “What do you have to lose? … I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back.” On his watch, African American unemployment reached the lowest level ever recorded, and his tax reform included a little-noticed provision creating “Opportunity Zones” to try to revitalize struggling towns and inner-city communities.  Trump promised to cancel President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate accord, approve the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, and open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration. He fulfilled all of those pledges. On trade, he kept his promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and impose tariffs on steel and aluminum. He also committed to renegotiating NAFTA and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement – and recently signed new deals with Mexico, Canada and South Korea. He committed to imposing tariffs on China to force it to open its markets and stop its theft of intellectual property - and is following through on that pledge. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s trade policies, he is doing exactly what he said. The president pledged historic increases in defense spending, and delivered. He pledged to bring back manufacturing jobs, and manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in more than two decades. He pledged to sign “Right to Try” legislation to give dying Americans access to experimental treatments, and did. He pledged to take on the opioid epidemic, and will soon sign a sweeping bipartisan opioids package into law.  Where Trump has failed to keep promises, such as building the wall or repealing Obamacare, it has not been for a lack of trying.

  24981.  N A  Congressman Jodey Arrington (TX-19) introduced a resolution affirming Article I Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution, which recognizes states’ sovereign power to defend themselves against invasion. In response to President Biden’s open-border policies, the federal government’s failure to respond, and the subsequent opportunism by the cartels, Rep. Arrington implores southern border states to use their constitutional power to defend themselves against the cartel-facilitated invasions and protect their citizens. “The Constitution is clear: Section IV Article 4 says the federal government “shall protect each of [the states] against Invasion,” said Rep. Arrington. “When the federal government fails to fulfill this constitutional duty, Article 1 Section 10 expressly guarantees states the sovereign power to repel an invasion and defend their citizenry from overwhelming and “imminent danger.” This resolution affirms that states don’t have to be passive victims of this Administration’s border security failures; rather, they should exercise their sovereign, constitutional right to defend themselves and their citizens.” “No ifs, ands or buts—the Biden Administration is failing to secure our southern border,” said Rep. Brian Babin (TX-36). “The Constitution says clearly that states have the power and right to step in and defend themselves when the federal government won’t do so. I’m proud to support Rep. Arrington’s resolution that will finally take power away from the deadly cartels and put it back into the hands of American citizens as we fight in the war for our safety and sovereignty.” “The Biden administration abandoned its duty to the rule of law, our national boundaries and Americans’ security,” said Rep. Jim Banks, Republican Study Committee Ranking Member. “It’s negligence, and states have a duty to protect their residents if the White House won’t." “Drug cartels’ vicious attacks and trafficking at our southern border continue to undermine the stability of Texas and, most importantly, the safety of our citizens,” said Texas State Senator Charles Perry. “I’ve drafted a resolution encouraging state agencies to use their resources to repel the drug cartel invasion, including those of the Texas Military Department as allowed by the U.S. Constitution. I want to thank Congressman Arrington for his efforts to address this very important issue at the federal level."

  25309. According to a report from Moody's Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi. The current CPI is 9.1 percent, the highest in over 40 years. Zandi and his coauthors say the Inflation Reduction Act will only "nudge the economy and inflation in the right direction." And that conclusion strains the definition of "nudge." Americans will see no change in inflation due to the bill, the report states, until the third quarter of 2023—a .01 percent decrease. Zandi's analysis is often shared by the White House or the president himself. During a February 2021 speech, Biden cited Zandi's work twice while pitching his economic agenda. In July of last year, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) called on lawmakers to read Zandi's favorable report on the bipartisan infrastructure bill. But Zandi's latest findings have not deterred the White House. Both Chief of Staff Ron Klain and Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates retweeted a CNN reporter's untruthful tweet that quotes the report as saying the bill will "meaningfully address climate change and [reduce] the government's budget deficits." The White House's celebration of the report signals how desperate they are to pass a budget reconciliation package before the midterm elections. Initially named "Build Back Better," the bill has seen a number of rebranding attempts as voters increasingly sour on Biden's presidency over their economic concerns. Zandi and his coauthors conclude that the inflation reduction bill lowers consumer costs for some medications, something the White House highlighted, although they decline to specify the total savings. Moreover, the deflationary benefits from lower health costs, the authors write, do not kick in until "mid-decade." "Moreover, large corporations will attempt to pass through some of their higher tax bill to consumers in higher prices for their wares," the authors write, although they add that this may be difficult "in competitive markets." The immediate impact of the bill may also slow growth as well, the authors find. Starting in late 2023 for over a year, according to data in the report, the bill will slightly shave off expected GDP growth. Despite those data, the authors say the Inflation Reduction Act will add "an estimated 0.2 percent" to GDP by the end of 2031. The Inflation Reduction Act contains $433 billion in spending and purports to raise $750 billion in revenue from higher taxes and lower Medicare prescription drug costs. A report from the nonpartisan Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation found that, despite White House claims, Americans making below $400,000 a year would see much higher taxes.

  25856. Ian Sams, spokesperson for the White House impeachment war room, wrote a letter to be sent to news organizations such as The New York Times, Fox News, the Associated Press, CBS News and others, CNN first reported. "It's time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies," Sams wrote, according to the letter. In the letter, Sams said an impeachment inquiry with no supporting evidence should "set off alarm bells for news networks. "This is not OK," journalist Matthew Keys tweeted. "The White House should not be encouraging, influencing or interfering in the editorial strategies of America's newsrooms, including CNN and the New York Times." "Now, any time the media DOES try to hold Republican lawmakers to account, those lawmakers can simply counter by questioning whether it's actual journalism or something encouraged by the Biden administration," Keys wrote. "All this demonstrates is that the Biden administration has lost confidence in the news media – which I guess mirrors public sentiment over the last few years, too." "The problem is they're trying to influence coverage. The government should never do that. It is inappropriate," Keys wrote. McCarthy on Tuesday said the House Oversight Committee's investigation found a "culture of corruption" around the Biden family as Republicans probe the business dealings of Biden's son, Hunter Biden, from before the Democrat took office. "These are allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption, and they warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives," McCarthy said. "That's why today I am directing our House committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden."

  26201. According to a report from Moody's Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi. The current CPI is 9.1 percent, the highest in over 40 years. Zandi and his coauthors say the Inflation Reduction Act will only "nudge the economy and inflation in the right direction." And that conclusion strains the definition of "nudge." Americans will see no change in inflation due to the bill, the report states, until the third quarter of 2023—a .01 percent decrease. Zandi's analysis is often shared by the White House or the president himself. During a February 2021 speech, Biden cited Zandi's work twice while pitching his economic agenda. In July of last year, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) called on lawmakers to read Zandi's favorable report on the bipartisan infrastructure bill. But Zandi's latest findings have not deterred the White House. Both Chief of Staff Ron Klain and Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates retweeted a CNN reporter's tweet that quotes the report as saying the bill will "meaningfully address climate change and [reduce] the government's budget deficits." The White House's celebration of the report signals how desperate they are to pass a budget reconciliation package before the midterm elections. Initially named "Build Back Better," the bill has seen a number of rebranding attempts as voters increasingly sour on Biden's presidency in response to their economic concerns Zandi and his coauthors conclude that the inflation reduction bill lowers consumer costs for some medications, something the White House highlighted, although they decline to specify the total savings. Moreover, the deflationary benefits from lower health costs, the authors write, do not kick in until "mid-decade." "Moreover, large corporations will attempt to pass through some of their higher tax bill to consumers in higher prices for their wares," the authors write, although they add that this may be difficult "in competitive markets." The immediate impact of the bill may also slow growth as well, the authors find. Starting in late 2023 for over a year, according to data in the report, the bill will slightly shave off expected GDP growth. Despite those data, the authors say the Inflation Reduction Act will add "an estimated 0.2 percent" to GDP by the end of 2031. The Inflation Reduction Act contains $433 billion in spending and purports to raise $750 billion in revenue from higher taxes and lower Medicare prescription drug costs. A report from the nonpartisan Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation found that, despite White House claims, Americans making below $400,000 a year would see much higher taxes.

  26608. CASE PREVIEW Supreme Court to decide whether insurrection provision keeps Trump off ballot By Amy Howe The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Thursday in what is shaping up to be the biggest election case since its ruling nearly 25 years ago in Bush v. Gore. At issue is whether former President Donald Trump, who is once again the front runner for the Republican nomination for president, can be excluded from the ballot because of his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attacks on the U.S. Capitol. Although the question comes to the court in a case from Colorado, the impact of the court’s ruling could be much more far-reaching. Maine’s secretary of state ruled in December that Trump should be taken off the primary ballot there, and challenges to Trump’s eligibility are currently pending in 11 other states. Trump warns that the efforts to keep him off the ballot “threaten to disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans.” History behind the case The dispute hinges on the interpretation of a relatively obscure provision of the Constitution: Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which (as relevant in this case) provides that no one “shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State,” if that person had previously sworn, “as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States” to support the U.S. Constitution but then “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” against the federal government. Enacted in the wake of the Civil War, Section 3 was intended to disqualify individuals who had served in the federal (or state) government before the Civil War and had sworn to uphold the Constitution but then supported the Confederacy. The bar on service can only be overcome by a two-thirds vote of both the House of Representatives and the Senate. Although Section 3 lay dormant for much of its history, there was renewed interest in it after the Jan. 6 attacks on the Capitol. Efforts to rely on Section 3 to disqualify officials for their role in the attacks have been met with varying degrees of success. In 2022, Georgia officials rebuffed a challenge to U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s eligibility. A state administrative law judge agreed that Greene’s “heated rhetoric may well have contributed to the environment that ultimately led to” the attack on the Capitol, but he concluded that she had not engaged in an insurrection. Earlier efforts to keep Trump off the ballot fell short. In Nov. 2023, for example, the Minnesota Supreme Court threw out an attempt to remove Trump from that state’s ballot. It left the door open, however, for the challengers to try to have Trump excluded from the general election ballot after the primaries. And on Dec. 27, the Michigan Supreme Court declined to review a lower-court decision that allowed Trump to appear on the state’s primary ballot. As in Minnesota, the lower court’s ruling does not foreclose a new challenge to Trump’s appearance on the general election ballot. The case now before the Supreme Court was the first one to hold that Trump was disqualified from appearing on the ballot in 2024. It was filed in early September 2023 by six Colorado residents eligible to vote in that state’s Republican primary. After a five-day trial, a Colorado trial court agreed that Trump engaged in insurrection but concluded that Section 3 does not apply to the president. Specifically, it concluded, the presidency is not an “office … under the United States,” and the president is not an “officer of the United States.” In a ruling on Dec. 19, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Trump is ineligible to be president under Section 3, and it barred the Colorado secretary of state, Jena Griswold, from listing him on the primary ballot. But the state supreme court put its ruling on hold to give the Supreme Court time to weigh in, leaving Trump on the ballot for now. Both Trump and the Colorado Republican Party came to the Supreme Court, asking the justices to review the state supreme court’s ruling. The U.S. Supreme Court granted Trump’s petition for review on Jan. 5 and scheduled oral argument for Feb. 8 – a time when the justices would otherwise be in the middle of their winter recess. Trump's lawyer advances a barrage of different challenges, several of them based on the text of Section 3, to the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling. Trump will remain on the ballot if the Supreme Court agrees with any of these arguments. The voters urge the justices to uphold the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision . “Officer of the United States” Trump’s first, and main, argument is that Section 3 does not apply to him because the president is not an “officer of the United States.” In other provisions of the Constitution where the phrase “officer of the United States” appears, Trump notes, it does not apply to the president – for example, the clause that requires the president to “Commission all the Officers of the United States” and the impeachment clause, which lists the president and vice president separately from “civil Officers of the United States.” Moreover, Trump adds, the Supreme Court in 2010 indicated that the phrase applies only to federal officials who are appointed; it does not extend to elected officials like the president. The voters dismiss this argument, countering that the president has been called the “chief executive officer of the United States” since long before the 14th Amendment was drafted. As with the phrase “office under the United States,” they say, Section 3 simply uses the phrase “of the United States” to distinguish between federal offices, such as the presidency, and state officers. The voters also discount Trump’s reliance on other provisions of the Constitution. They note that although the appointments clause requires the president to appoint some “officers of the United States,” it also indicates that the Constitution provides for the appointment of other “officers of the United States” – including the president and vice president – by the electoral college. And the impeachment clause, they reason, provides for the impeachment of the president and vice president separately from “all civil Officers of the United States” because (unlike other officials) the president and vice president play both civil and military roles. Section 3 also does not apply to him, Trump continues, because when he is sworn in the president pledges to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution” – rather than “support” it, as Section 3 requires. The voters contend, however, that “Section 3 is about violation of a sworn duty, not about pedantic wordplay.” The oath that the president takes to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution is an oath to support the Constitution, they insist. The voters add that an interpretation of Section 3 that excludes the president, while still applying to all other officials – including “postmaster or county sheriff” – who took an oath to support the Constitution and then engaged in insurrection would be at odds with the purpose of the provision. Moreover, they suggest, it would be an exception that would apply only to Trump, because “every other President (except, of course, George Washington) had previously sworn a constitutional oath in some other federal or state capacity.” Trump pushes back against any suggestion that it would be inconsistent with the purpose of Section 3 to hold that the president falls outside its scope. When the 14th Amendment was ratified, he contends, there weren’t any former presidents who had supported the Confederacy, so the drafters would not have had any reason to exclude the president from serving again. Whether Trump “engaged in insurrection” Although Trump had contended in an earlier brief that Jan. 6 was not an “insurrection,” he now argues only that Section 3 does not apply to him because he himself did not “engage in” insurrection. Trump never told his supporters to enter the Capitol on Jan. 6, he says, nor did he lead or encourage any of the violence that occurred there that day. To the contrary, he emphasizes, in his remarks at the Ellipse on Jan. 6, he told the crowd to “peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard” and “support our Capitol Police and Law Enforcement.” Trump adds that even if he didn’t respond when rioters entered the Capitol, that is not, by itself, “engaging” in insurrection. Moreover, he notes, although he has been the subject of several investigations since 2021, he has never been charged with insurrection.

  26649.  @sharonsmelser2491  Ma'am I have been taught to respect my elders. Yet, your self righteous, know it all, rigid, condescending mentality, make that extremely hard. Your consistent wrongful assumptions or inability to comprehend the content, facts, and truthfulness of statements that disagree with your opinions is glaring proof of your own Dunning Kruger effect affliction. I never accused you of age related dysfunction, proof positive of your wrongful assumptions, and victim mentality. Another wrongful assumption you continue to embrace, is your opinion that the factual history I cited, to disprove your untruthful statements, is alternative history. You also fail to comprehend the Democrat vs. Republican debate, you say I created, and say you never initiated is also untruthful. Again, the Dem vs Rep references were required to offset your untruthful, and highly opinioned statements, only. It would be a good idea for you to review the conversations in this thread. BC your perception of them are severely skewed, and biased. Your insistence that I insulted you, and that I have difficulty recognizing my flawed behavior is also highly questionable. I have shown you much more respect than you deserve, for the cringe worthy manner of your own conduct. Also, I told you to mute me if you found me offensive. You did not. You merely continue to criticize, falsely claiming to be insulted. Ma'am you have mistaken me for someone who has mistreated you. I have not. I believe you enjoy insulting others and hold anyone with a differing opinion in contempt. Also, your inability to stay on topic, is frustrating.

  26892. *PA Lawmakers: Numbers Don’t Add Up, Certification of Presidential Results Premature and In Error Dec. 28, 2020 HARRISBURG – A group of state lawmakers performing extensive analysis of election data today revealed troubling discrepancies between the numbers of total votes counted and total number of voters who voted in the 2020 General Election, and as a result are questioning how the results of the presidential election could possibly have been certified by Secretary of the Commonwealth Kathy Boockvar and Governor Tom Wolf. These findings are in addition to prior concerns regarding actions by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, the Secretary, and others impacting the conduct of the election. A comparison of official county election results to the total number of voters who voted on November 3, 2020 as recorded by the Department of State shows that 6,962,607 total ballots were reported as being cast, while DoS/SURE system records indicate that only 6,760,230 total voters actually voted. Among the 6,962,607 total ballots cast, 6,931,060 total votes were counted in the presidential race, including all three candidates on the ballot and write-in candidates. The difference of 202,377 more votes cast than voters voting, together with the 31,547 over- and under-votes in the presidential race, adds up to an alarming discrepancy of 170,830 votes, which is more than twice the reported statewide difference between the two major candidates for President of the United States. On November 24, 2020, Boockvar certified election results, and Wolf issued a certificate of ascertainment of presidential electors, stating that Vice President Joe Biden received 80,555 more votes than President Donald Trump.*

  26995.  @Mayonnaisetdy  Under Pennsylvania’s constitution, only those qualified to vote may cast ballots, and voting must occur either (1) in person at a polling place or (2) by absentee ballot. Pennsylvania’s constitution permits only four categories of qualified voters to cast absentee ballots. The first is those who: ¯ “may, on the occurrence of any election, be absent from the municipality of their residence, because their duties, occupation or business require them to be elsewhere.” The second, third, and fourth are those “who, on the occurrence of any election”: ¯ “are unable to attend at their proper polling places because of illness or physical disability”; ¯ “will not attend a polling place because of the observance of a religious holiday”; and ¯ “cannot vote because of election day duties, in the case of a county employee.” In other words, under Pennsylvania’s constitution, qualified voters who want to cast ballots and fall under none of these four categories may vote only — yes, only — by showing up at a polling place and voting in person. Any other form of voting runs afoul of Pennsylvania’s constitution. Nevertheless, in 2019 the Pennsylvania General Assembly passed, and the governor signed, a bill allowing all — yes, all – qualified Pennsylvania voters to cast ballots without showing up at a polling place and voting in person. This law – called “Act 77” — reaches beyond what Pennsylvania’s constitution permits. But a state-constitutional violation doesn’t usually suffice for the U.S. Supreme Court to take a case. What may suffice is a violation of the U.S. Constitution. The challengers explain why one has occurred. Please remember from last week’s column that Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution is what empowers state legislators to appoint presidential electors. As the U.S. Supreme Court held in Bush v. Palm Beach County Canvassing Board in 2000, “in the case of a law enacted by a state legislature applicable not only to elections to state offices, but also to the selection of Presidential electors, the legislature is not acting solely under the authority given it by the people of the State, but by virtue of a direct grant of authority made under (Article II, Section 1, Clause 2) of the United States Constitution.” The challengers explain that when “a state legislature violates its state constitution, purportedly in furtherance of its plenary authority to regulate federal elections and appoint electors, it also violates the U.S. Constitution.” The challengers further recall part of a concurring opinion by Chief Justice William Rehnquist, joined by Justice Antonin Scalia and Justice Clarence Thomas, in Bush v. Gore in 2000: “A significant departure from the legislative scheme for appointing Presidential electors presents a federal constitutional question.” This is only the first 2020 presidential-election challenge to reach the high court since Election Day.

  27006.  @dylaanowen  You must never have studied economics, or failed all of your economic classes, if you did, Dylan. Under President Trump's policies prosperity is increasing, and the less well-off are benefiting the most. Four large secrets that most of the American media are afraid to utter are that the American economy grew in a way that is directly helpful to the most vulnerable segments of society under President Trump. President Trump's administration’s trade policy was clearly working; that the flow of illegal immigrants was sharply diminishing; and that for the first time in 65 years, the United States has practically ceased to be a net oil importer and the US became Energy independent for the first time in history. These were all promises of the Trump candidacy, and the first three were areas where previous administrations had promised action but failed to deliver. Even now, the Democratic party, still prattle compulsively about “tax cuts for the rich” while embarking on the ride of the Valkyries to stratospheric taxes, open borders, socialized medicine, the Green Terror, and the dreaded “national conversation” on trillion-dollar block-vote buying through racial reparations. The census report revealed workers’ earnings increasing at 3.4 percent annually under President Trump's leadership, a rate not seen since the best of the Reagan years, and the poverty rate has declined to 11.8 percent, the best figure that has been recorded since the end of the Clinton administration and still resolutely proceeding in the right direction. Unemployment is at its lowest percentage since the Lyndon Johnson administration more than 50 years ago (and the numbers then were helped by having 545,000 conscripts in Vietnam). Minority groups are the principal beneficiaries of the Trump economy; this isn’t trickle-down, it’s surge-up. Average income for female-led single-parent households jumped 7.6 percent last year, well ahead of gains in higher income groups. The poverty rate among female-led households fell 2.7 percent for African Americans, and 4 percent for Hispanics. Industries largely populated by women (and, historically, exploited women), especially hospitality and, to a lesser extent, health care, showed strong earnings gains, even as unemployment rates for African-American and Hispanic women fell to under 4.5 percent. Another partisan Democratic falsehood that is exposed by the census is the myth that the middle class is shrinking. The percentage of total families at the lowest economic levels has fallen by over 1 whole percent and the brackets from $50,000 to $150,000 and above $200,000 have both increased by almost 1 whole percent (several million people in each case). There were sharp increases in the incomes of younger families (up to age 34). Most growth has been in the lower and middle levels, and the downward effects of reduced benefit and welfare payments, which dampen the income-growth number slightly, are themselves a positive indicator of reduced need for assistance. The plain message from the census figures and accompanying current statistics from the Labor Department show that the administration that puts economic growth (Trump) ahead of direct tax-and-spend transfers to combat inequality (Obama) achieves more for both economic growth and reduction of inequality. There is no sign that the Democrats are assimilating the lessons of this. They endlessly repeat their false mantra that the rich (i.e. the knee-jerk limousine liberals of Hollywood, Silicon Valley, and Wall Street, almost all of them effulgent Democrats) are the only winners from the Trump economy. The biggest relative winners are the most needy, which they will presumably remember on Election Day.

  27530.  @chrisc9611  I believe it can be considered a democracy. And here is why -American constitutional design can best be understood as an effort to establish a sober form of democracy. It did so by embracing representation, the separation of powers, checks and balances, and the protection of individual rights—all concepts that were unknown in the ancient world where democracy had earned its poor reputation. In “Federalist No. 10” and “Federalist No. 51,” the seminal papers, Madison argued that a large republic with a diversity of interests capped by the separation of powers and checks and balances would help provide the solution to the ills of popular government. In a large and diverse society, populist passions are likely to dissipate, as no single group can easily dominate. If such intemperate passions come from a minority of the population, the “Republican principlere,” by which Madison meant majority rule, will allow the defeat of “sinister views by regular votes.” More problematic are passionate groups that come together as a majority. The large republic with a diversity of interests makes this unlikely, particularly when its separation of powers works to filter and tame such passions by incentivizing the development of complex Democratic majorities: “In the extended republic of the United States, and among the great variety of interests, parties, and sects which it embraces, a coalition of a majority of the whole society could seldom take place on any other principles than those of justice and the general good.” Madison had previewed this argument at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 using the term democracy, arguing that a diversity of interests was “the only defense against the inconveniences of democracy consistent with the democratic form of government.”

  27742.  @chuck2502  ?? I didn't make fun of Biden in my post on this thread. You are just one more delusional Democrat, in a very long line of them. Herschel Walker is a wonderful candidate. He has earned the respect of millions of Americans, because of his decision to reach out to mental health experts in his time of need . Herschel Walker told a crowd of Veterans and VA employees that he initially thought you were less of a person if you sought help for mental illness. Sharing how he changed this perception with the help of a great doctor, after he signed himself in to a hospital. How he realized his life was on a bad course, and he needed help. “If you’re struggling, you’re not alone,” Walker said. “If you’re hurting, don’t be ashamed. I’m not ashamed.” Walker said he felt a kindred spirit with Veterans and service members having had military aspirations when he was younger. He has shared his experience with Veterans and active-duty personal at more than 160 military and VA installations. “Life is not easy, but if you keep looking up, I can promise you that you will get through,” he said. “You will get knocked down, but you must get back up. Batman, Superman and the Hulk don’t exist, but you do. You put it on the line. You’re the real heroes.” For general information about the mental health services provided by VA, visit your local VA medical center or Vet Center. Mental illness affects 1 in 6 people across this nation. Herschel has worked hard to increase, awareness about the need for mental health care to be easier to access for those who need this type of help. He has destigmatized this issue.

  27980.  @jonnybaze7449  I would like to share an article that was broadcast in 1963 that concisely explains the actions of the DNC perhaps you are familiar with it, Paul Harvey's "If I Were The Devil.PAUL HARVEY’S ‘IF I WERE THE DEVIL’ TRANSCRIPT If I were the devil … If I were the Prince of Darkness, I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness. And I’d have a third of it’s real estate, and four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn’t be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — Thee. So I’d set about however necessary to take over the United States. I’d subvert the churches first — I’d begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: ‘Do as you please.’ “To the young, I would whisper that ‘The Bible is a myth.’ I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what’s bad is good, and what’s good is ‘square.’ And the old, I would teach to pray, after me, ‘Our Father, which art in Washington…’ “And then I’d get organized. I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting, so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting. I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa. I’d pedal narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I’d tranquilize the rest with pills. “If I were the devil I’d soon have families that war with themselves, churches at war with themselves, and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was consumed. And with promises of higher ratings I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames. If I were the devil I would encourage schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions — just let those run wild, until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door. “Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing, I’d have judges promoting pornography — soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress. And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls, and church money. If I were the devil I’d make the symbols of Easter an egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle. “If I were the devil I’d take from those who have, and give to those who wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And what do you bet? I couldn’t get whole states to promote gambling as thee way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work, in Patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on TV is the way to be. And thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. In other words, if I were the devil I’d just keep right on doing on what he’s doing. Paul Harvey, good day.” "
