If climate change and the use of fossil fuels is such a big issue, why are Biden, Harris and the other politicians flying all over the country and the world in their massive jets contributing to the problem? Does the word hypocrisy come to mind here?

I saw a sign that said’ not seperating your food scrapes from regular garbage scraps causes global warming.So keeping the food scraps in one pile wont do that too?What about a compost heap,or when you rack a grass into a pile and it’s steaming.Wil they outlaw composts?What about taking a #2 out in the woods?%30 of all methane gas in the atmosphere is from cows.They are actually trying to outlaw cows from farting outdoors.They want it done indoors with filters.

Not just that Twitter helped – their top executives colluded specifically to come up with a narrative to prevent the public from learning about the documents from the laptop indicating Joe Biden was seeking deals from China and Ukraine based on his past role as VP and his then-current position as the top Dem candidate for president. Huge ethical consideration. New York Post’s links to its stories revealing these docs were then blocked as “unsafe.” According to the reporter who helped release the info today, Trump’s associates also requested and had tweets removed (though apparently unrelated to the laptop). Neither political party or its leaders should be interfering with the public’s right to free speech. And this proves Twitter was acting as a publisher and not merely a platform – leaving no reason not to amend tech’s complete immunity under Section 230. Stop censoring speech at the behest of political power – the dialogue is important.

Musk really took a dump in their lunchbox, but they had to know it was coming. It’s certainly a cautionary tale as to what happens when CEO by absence is a management style. This sure makes Dorsey look like a real chump. Further, it’s hard to imagine a multi-billion dollar company being run so irresponsibly. Perhaps it’s a good thing Musk bought it as it would have likely failed eventually with such yahoos running the day to day operations.

The real lesson here is what happens when people in positions of power start to believe their own B.S. These people somehow went way past The Peter Principal. Ironically that’s what we are also experiencing in the current administration. Hopefully we can put a stop to this tend.

If you have faith in our federal government maybe you should know 100 billion dollars has been stolen from the covid relief program. Three IRS agents are responsible for a mear missing 50 billion dollars in 2022. Then we have the millions or billions from California’s unemployment department. To the point where they don’t know who to send money to anymore. Everytime the government gets the bug to hand out money they can’t get it right. Who knows where the money is we sent to the Ukraine? I just sent the IRS $126 and change for something I did wrong last year. May as well have thrown the cash in a dumpster. Not to mention Mini Madoff and his lost billions. Ever get the feeling you are just a dumb pawn?

Don’t see a Local Politics link so posting here. Be aware that the main source of funding Seeno wants to use to start placing infrastructure at the CNWS is our property taxes. This is infrastructure that must be put in before anything can be built on the property so it needs millions of dollars of start up funding. City staff is pushing the idea that no money will come from the general fund. Which is good – but the statement masks the fact that the property taxes Seeno wants to use would never have been tracked by the general fund anyway; those taxes will go straight to Seeno, bypassing anything you would see on city accounting docs. They will use CFDs or IFDs; one requires voter approval but the other does not. Seeno has still not provided info on how much of its own funds it is willing to put up to start the project.

The California Reparations Task Force says that under the initiative, qualifying Black residents in the state could qualify for $223,200 per person.

The task force drew its ballpark number by examining gaps in housing and speculating the approximate amount of wealth lost between 1933 and 1977. The state panel says that Black Californians lost $5,074 per year under previous housing policies.

Speculating!

Fox News is spreading this story with lies again saying, “California COULD pay over $200,000 per person.” But the actual report does not say anything like that. No broad reparations are in the report. It does allow for specific reparations after a claim is reviewed. One example was the beach front property taken from a family in the 1920’s that was returned last year.

DOH: I have not seen anything on Fox about it, but you might want to look at page 451 of the full report your link has. It claims a wealth gap of over $200K is due to discrimination for some based only on race, and this whole report is about reparations to compensate for racial injustice.

Further, tax paying California citizens should not have to finance this. Perhaps our Governor will chip in.

“Madam Speaker, the American People Have Spoken – They Fired You” – US House Representative Lauren Boebert to Corrupt Nancy Pelosi’s Face –

US House member Lauren Boebert told creepy and corrupt old Nancy Pelosi that she was fired by the American people.

No Congressman has done more to destroy this country than Nancy Pelosi. She pushed through spending bills that will never be repaid. She lied every time she opened her mouth and thereby destroyed the image of the House. She said terrible lies about President Trump and then set up and arrested his followers for made-up crimes. She is evil personified!
At the end of her term her husband, who’s benefited tremendously from insider stock tips from Pelosi, got caught with a man in his house and claimed the man had broken into the house and made it to his bedroom without any of the multiple individuals and services knowing.
Americans have had enough of that horrible, hateful, creepy old Nancy Pelosi and her crooked switch-hitting husband Paul.

Lauren Boebert let Pelosi know that she is fired;
“Madam Speaker, the American people have spoken. They fired you and have chosen to end the Democrats’ one-party rule throughout our government.”

“The days of this chamber being treated as Pelosi’s house instead of the people’s house are over,” she said. “The American people will once again be allowed into this chamber to see their representatives at work.”

We shall happily sing the last song from The Wizard of Oz. Someone please bring the water bucket!

JWB’s pants are on fore AGAIN –
While the term “impeachment” typically is associated with the Commander in Chief, the Constitution clearly states who can be impeached: “The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States.”

Per the Constitution, any civil federal officer may be impeached for “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” This means representatives, cabinet members, and even Supreme Court justices may be impeached. The term “civil officer” has been interpreted to include all U.S. officers holding their appointments under the federal government, including executive and judicial officers, members of the House and Senate, and those in all levels of government.

I think that makes you the authoritative liar, JWB.

.
“The Constitution’s structure and historical practice also indicate that impeachment likely does not apply to Members of Congress.17 First, Article II, Section 3 provides that officers of the United States are commissioned by the President;18 Members of Congress receive no such commission. Second, Members may be removed from office by other means explicitly provided in the Constitution.19 Third, the Ineligibility Clause bars any person holding any office under the United States from serving in any house of Congress, indicating the Members of Congress are not considered officers of the United States.20
.
Finally, congressional practice indicates that Members of Congress are not officers of the United States.21 In 1797, the House of Representatives voted to impeach Senator William Blount, the first impeachment in the history of the young Republic.22 Two years later, the Senate concluded that Senator Blount was not a civil officer subject to impeachment and voted to dismiss the articles because that body lacked jurisdiction over the matter.23 This determination has been accepted ever since by the House and the Senate, and since then, the House has never again voted to impeach a Member of Congress.24”

Democrats virtually suspended the Constitution when Obama took office with his Executive Orders that defied everything holy about our Constitution. Then, when Trump took office, Democrats doubled down on the directives from the Department of Justice to find ways to make Trump look bad, even if it was a lie, freely invading his privacy and violating his Constitutional rights. And, let us not forget Biden’s blathering addresses to the nation wherein he basically said to do as he said whether it was constitutional or not.

We have had a wealth of Constitutional violations under Democrat leadership and they appear to have gotten away with it, but it is now time to pay the piper.

Trump only talked about going outside the Constitution, while the Democrats actually did it in multiple cases as in the use of Constitutional impeachment not for actual crimes but as a tool to defeat his agenda and using the FBI and DOJ for political purposes. Also, the Second amendment is very clear about infringement, and the Democrats decided those words mean what they want them to mean. I could go on. Actually, I will. Having 2 to 5 million illegals coming over the border is an invasion and the Constitution is clear that the federal government is responsible for stopping invasions. This could turn into a long essay, so I will shorten it by looking more generally. Everything Trump does or says ends up with a negative spin from the Leftist media. I encourage him to say outrageous things just to jerk them around and have them chase their tails. If everything you say is lied about in the media, why should you even try? If I were him I would disclose the Federal Reserve is run by space aliens out of Area 51.

TDL so you really think the two impeachments for Trump were unconstitutional? Let’s see for example Mitt Romney voted twice for removal, he must be having absolute no regard for the Constitution. I guess that’s why he was the Republican nominee for President in 2012?
.
And let’s see since 2021 the Republicans introduced how many times articles of impeachment in congress?
.
It’s a staggering 14 times “Biden has been the target of nine, with two aimed at Attorney General Merrick Garland and one each against Vice President Kamala Harris, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas.”

JWB: You ask me questions you already know the answer to. Yes, both were ethically and legally unconstitutional. The first was based on the debunked Russia collusion story. The issue is not only that it was fake, but that given the close incestuous relationships between the top Democrats, its rather obvious they knew it was fake. Initially Pelosi wanted nothing to do with it until she discovered the power of the using the old prosecutor’s obstruction of justice charge as a tactic when the actual crime didn’t happen. It was spectacularly successful in hamstringing Trump’s agenda for a while as well as smearing him in the Leftist press forever. The second impeachment was only to knock him out as a future candidate as is glaringly obvious since it was not to remove him from power as the constitution intended for such a procedure.

It’s strange you would bring up Mayorkas as he highlights how sick all of this was. While the Russia collusion was known as fake, Mayorkas watched 2 to 5 million illegals enter the country under his watch, quite in contrast to the Constitution’s assignment that the federal government is responsible to protect the states from foreign invasion.

It says a lot if you proudly claim the impeachment of President Trump was unconstitutional and in the very same sentence express your view that it was based on “Russia collusion” which by the way has never been debunked. But at any rate the impeachment was for “abusing power by soliciting Ukrainian interference in the 2020 presidential election and then obstructing the House’s impeachment investigation.”

Hanne – just where in h3ll did Sam say you were a “threat to democracy?” You can claim your “middle of the road” all you want…but your ongoing posts make a liar out of you. If you have an issue here, you might want to check out Denmark….

Jwb – your starting off with “ha, ha, ha” leads one to believe that the rest of your comment is nothing but a joke and continue to not be taken seriously.

Democrats/liberals – while I don’t like trump (and never did),I like slow joe (who “doesn’t work for you”), Harris the ho (who got where she is on her back and by checking the boxes), and the rest of the administration $hit show even less. Those current “inhabitants “ of the WH are the real threat to this republic.

Let’s look at the thief working for the DOE (?) that stole the suitcases. Nothing more than another “check the box” moron. Just like the rest of the appointees.

I think she is also trying to use the Leftist tactic of claiming victim status being a little old lady in retail. In contrast, she calls others Trumpsters and defends and denies Denmark’s Nazi past. No one here cared about Denmark. She is the one who continuously and unrelentingly brought it up and kept making an issue about it. It’s clear there is a lot of guilt there. Again, no one cared. She demanded we discuss it so she could put herself in a place to defend it.

To do list. Denmark does not have a Nazi past, we had Nazi sympatizers as did most countries, but as a whole the Nazi’s was despised by most, we had a very active underground, and those who collaborated with the Nazi’s was dealt harsly with after the war. Perhaps you are thinking of Norway, who had a member of parliement welcoming the occupation, his name was Quisling, which now is often used to describe a traitor to his country. Even so Norway too had their underground. Sweden was neutral.

Internal email documents at Twitter reveal Arizona Governor-elect and Secretary of State Katie Hobbs allegedly colluded with former Twitter officials last year by flagging accounts related to so-called election misinformation.

“Both parties had access to these tools. For instance, in 2020, requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign were received and honored. ”
So if you believe that the Arizona Secretary of State (note that you alleged collusion was on January 7, 2021 well before Katie Hobbs ever became Governor-elect) was collusion then why don’t you point out that the Trump White House colluded with Twitter in 2020?

We are occasionally re-reminded in the news about our whistling by the graveyard on our possible upcoming currency crisis. The US had $9 trillion in federal debt as of the housing crisis back in 2008. Now the debt has ballooned to $31 trillion. Rising interest rates are requiring the government to sell even more debt just to pay the interest. One does not need to wonder why major foreign owners of US Treasury bonds such as China and Japan are reducing their holdings. US household debt including mortgages and credit card debt has grown to over $16 trillion, encouraged by the federal reserve by keeping interest rates low for years.

Some apologists of this craziness say government debt is only 120 or so percent of GDP and some other countries are worse. However, the government does not own the economy so looking at the percent debt is of GDP makes little sense. Will this all come crashing down? It has in other countries. Remember, most of your wealth is just in databases owned and controlled by banks, mortgage companies, the government and others. In a financial crisis all bets are off, and the government may just decide to change the numbers on these databases to fix their debt and perhaps reallocate wealth to address equity. The only thing between you and bankruptcy are some entries on databases you don’t control.

I was talking with a liberal acquaintance the other day, and they just weren’t comprehending my point. Idealism and ignorance seem to go together. So I said, “Look, don’t take my word for it. I know you don’t have any investments or a 401K, but perhaps one of your centrist friends does. Ask to see their 11-30-2020 statements and their 11-30-2022 statements. Then ask them if their life or future has improved. Then get back to me on it.” I don’t expect to hear from them.

Let’s see the S&P500 closed at 3,621.63 on 11/30/2020 and closed at 4,080.11 which is a gain of about 12.65%. And of course if you look at the index during the Trump administration it was as low as 2,404.92 on03/20/2020.
.
So what is your point?

not sure why it scrambled up but it should say the S&P500 index increased by about 12.65% between 11/30/2020 and 11/30/2022.

Perhaps I have been too subtle here.
Historically, going back to 1928, the S & P has averaged over 11% annually. Therefore, 12% in 24 months is poor, by any portfolio manager’s definition. Further it’s all large-cap, the slowest moving. So you can count on more Biden damage shortly that hasn’t been priced yet. Very good mid and small-cap stocks have been decimated by the crappy policies of the Biden administration. And the bond market is really hurting retirees or anyone in target funds, a large part of the 401K business. So again, review a statement and it’s clear the Biden administration policies have injured investing Americans.

@TFS
First of all nobody will dispute that particularly the current year has been very challenging
in the financial markets. However your very own statement that for example the historical average of the S&P500 gains over a long period (from 1928 though today) has been about 11%. You may have missed the meaning of the term “average” but it implies that there have been periods of lower growth as well as periods of larger growth. You can probably find such periods in pretty much any administration.
.
It is general knowledge that politicians of either party take too much credit in periods
of growth but equally get too much blame in more challenging periods. As a matter of fact politicians probably have not that much influence in global markets that are often driven by events outside of their control.
.
Clearly your post indicates that you do not share that sentiment, so let’s dive a little bit further into your arguments. Obviously the current administration could not enact any policies prior to 1/20/2021. The S&P500 opened on that day at 3,816.20 and one year later on 1/20/2022 closed at 4,477.95. This represents an annual growth of 17.34% and in your words a significant gain over the historical annual growth rate of 11% So using your arguments the Biden administration policies during that year greatly helped investing Americans.
.
On the flip side, during the Trump administration the S&P500 closed at 2,784.49 on 2/28/2019 and on 2/28/2020 closed at 2,954.22. Meaning, during this particular 12 month period the S&P500 gained 5.74%. Since “12% in 24 months is poor, by any portfolio manager’s definition” you will certainly agree that less than 6% in 12 months is poor by any definition and shows how the Trump administration policies have injured investing Americans.

JWB: Your analysis falls as flat as a pizza and is just as deep, taking one set of cherry picked numbers to peddle your point. The economy, when Trump took office was weakening and way overdue for a recession according to NABE, the National Association of Business Economists. So right at the start, Trump’s story is of a recession that did not happen because he changed the course of the economy. Additionally, the Covid lockdown forced on us by Fauci and his ilk was like weathering a minor version of the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs. Your pizza depth analysis ignores the context.

Let’s look at Biden. The economy was growing nicely toward the end of Trump’s administration, but Biden ignored all economic theory and dumped trillions of unneeded money on the economy leading to inflation and the mess we are in now. Vanguard Investments today announced hardship 401K withdrawals are now the highest on record. Finally, you conveniently ignored inflation that entirely wiped out any and all S&P500 returns during Biden’s mess of a presidency. It gets worse. He has forced on us a $31 trillion dollar debt, many times larger than anything the world has ever seen, and possibly larger than any experience intergalactically.

Perhaps I have been too subtle.
There are years where a 6% return while poor, is not especially injurious. However rampant inflation over 8% puts a large hole in every investor’s bucket. This drives people to invest in hard assets which further pushes down market performance. Mutual Fund managers are then forced to sell assets they like in order to cover redemption’s. So on non-qualified investments investors receive poor performance and unreasonable capital gains expenses.
This would all be completely avoidable if this administration chose to be fiscally responsible which they have not.

Your talking points are just a big fail. You simply keep trying to change goal posts. My example for the S&P500 for the first year of the current administration enacting policies was 2021 and the index gain was 17%. The inflation in the US in 2021 was 4.6% and not over 8%.
.
Please stop wasting my time with your talking points.

Back to my original post: compare actual statements 11-30-2020 and 11-30-2022, not indices, you can’t spend an index. It’s quite clear Biden fiscal policy is killing performance. Biden inflation compounds the problem.

For the last time don’t waste my time. Wouldn’t it be easier for you to simply say “Trump good” “Biden bad”? So why do you keep trying to dress it up in some insane BS?
.
You realize one cannot spend statements either? I simply used the index as a proxy. It’s virtually impossible to compare statements for two years considering that there were about 130K in contribution over that time period.
.
You’re completely silent on 2021 which was actually a fairly good year for the markets and it was under Biden’s fiscal policies.
.
Nobody is arguing that 2022 is not challenging and yes inflation is too high. However inflation is high in many other markets outside the US as well. And there are many factors which influence inflation.
.
I’m certainly not trying to defend the current inflation rate but here is an inflation calculator. Note it is not useful for 2022 because it’s only updated to April 2022. But to the argument that since Biden took office that because of inflation 1$ is now only worth 88 cents. You may want to see how 1$ fared from 2017 through 2021 (the previous administration) and you will see that it declined to about 91 cents.

“Wrongfully detained?” She violated the f***ing law. And he trades her for a convicted international arms dealer.

CNN sure did not disappoint. There is a Joseph Goebbels quality propaganda piece on their website today that sounds like a love letter to the arms dealer. Two additional and important points made are that the deal is good for the planet because it shows how superpowers can work together even during conflict. Second, it shows how weak Putin is. No, this is not satire. It really says both of those things. I am going to print and keep this as a nice reference to the twisted and sick beliefs of the cancerous Leftist media.
