Rep. Huizenga to Newsmax: Union Members Flocking to Trump
By James Morley III | Saturday, 11 May 2024 10:22 AM EDT
Rep Bill Huizenga, R-Mich., told Newsmax on Saturday that President Joe Biden's inability to deliver a clear message has seen many of Michigan's union members "flocking to Donald Trump."
On Wednesday, Biden made a threat to withhold heavy artillery transfers to Israel if the country proceeded with a full assault on the city of Rafah, the last remaining stronghold of Hamas terrorists. Biden has faced criticism from members of both parties who view his stance on Israel as inconsistent. Huizenga said Biden's decisions are based on "politics not policy."
"He's losing [in Michigan] and there's a couple of very important affiliations here in Michigan on the Democrat side. You've obviously got the Arab American coalition, Jewish coalition, but also African American and union members," he said during an appearance on "Wake Up America Weekend."
In April, a Kaplan Strategies poll showed Trump with a commanding 51%-36% lead in the key battleground state.
"And we know what's happening with the union members. They're all flocking to Donald Trump. So they've got to make up these vote somewhere here in Michigan," Huizenga added.

Biden won’t let America supply the world with low-carbon gas. It’s green energy madness
David Blackmon
May 11, 2024
Granholm’s remarks received an icy reception from the audience, most of whom have learned from hard experience to distrust such statements specific to their business from this President and his appointees.
Many experts have questioned the wisdom of the Biden White House’s ordering a “pause” in permitting new export infrastructure for liquefied natural gas (LNG) since it was put in place in late January. Citing the strategic leverage in global affairs provided by America’s leading position in the LNG export market, critics contend that the pause – especially with its open-ended nature – will only serve to diminish confidence among US trading partners and allies in their ability to continue to rely on the US gas industry to fill their needs.
Those opposed to the policy also contend that the pause has opened the door for competing exporting nations, like Qatar, Australia, and even Russia to ramp up their own exports and permanently seize bigger shares of the global market. Such concerns have been confirmed in recent months with moves by both Qatar and Russia to raise their own export volumes and install new infrastructure as the Biden White House fiddles.
A new study conducted by Berkeley Research Group (BRG) serves to confirm another criticism of the Biden pause, which is that US LNG exports result in lower greenhouse emissions than natural gas supplied by competing countries, and much lower compared with coal, the major competing fuel source in both Europe and Asia. BRG employed full life cycle methodologies and included “the most recent publicly available methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) data” to create results for eight European and five Asian countries for the year 2022.
The top line finding from the BRG study concludes, “GHG emissions intensity of US LNG in 2022 was less than 50 per cent of coal in both Europe and Asia and lower than pipeline gas imported from Algeria, Russia, and Turkmenistan”. However the report did also find that US LNG emissions were higher than pipeline gas coming into central Europe from Azerbaijan and Norway.
It should come as no surprise that US LNG emissions are less than half those of coal. The fact that US gas emissions are so dramatically lower than much of the pipeline gas coming into the European countries included in the study should raise concerns given the ongoing heavy reliance on Russian gas in central and northern Europe.
One major bit of irony in all this is the fact that Biden officials justified their pause with a claimed need to fully study the scale of emissions being created by the rapidly growing US LNG industry. A similar specious rationale was in part used as justification for President Biden’s Day 1 executive order cancelling the Keystone XL Pipeline expansion.
The BRG report was commissioned by LNG Allies and the American Exploration & Production Council (AXPC), eliciting criticism from anti-oil and gas groups.
“The LNG industry continues to put forward this false dichotomy between gas versus coal, while completely ignoring renewable energy in the equation,” Cathy Collentine, director of the Sierra Club’s Beyond Dirty Fuels campaign, said in a statement. “To accurately assess the profound impacts of gas exports on the climate crisis, we must incorporate comparisons to rapidly increasing access to clean electricity.”
But that exercise in what about-ism ignores the continuing fact that, while deployment of wind and solar is accelerating, it still has not managed to satisfy even the pace of rising demand for energy. That reality leaves the countries included in the study little choice but to find ways to replace natural gas supplied by US LNG with the alternatives analyzed in BRG’s study. Nations also need reliable supplies of dispatchable energy to cover the absence of renewable energy during sunless, windless periods.
As quoted by E&E News, LNG Allies CEO Fred Hutchison defends the report against such attacks by pointing to facts on the ground.
“In 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine and the gas got cut off, it wasn’t more solar or wind used in those periods of time,” Hutchinson said. “If there were, they would’ve reduced the demand for US LNG. As it was, the world was desperate for LNG, and mostly Europe was desperate for LNG.”
At the CERAWeek conference held in Houston in March, Biden Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm assured attendees that the “pause” would be temporary, saying it “will be well in the rearview mirror” when the conference convenes in March, 2025. But the Houston Chronicle reported Granholm’s remarks received an icy reception from the audience, most of whom have learned from hard experience to distrust such statements specific to their business from this President and his appointees.
Policy certainty and consistency has long been one of the fundamental factors that has made the United States one of the most attractive places for major capital investment on earth. Arbitrary decisions so clearly motivated by political considerations like this permitting pause seem almost designed to rob the country of that strategic edge.

Supreme Court Justices Thomas and Alito Issue Warnings About State of America
https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/supreme-court-justices-thomas-and-alito-issue-warnings-about-state-of-america-5648293?utm_source=rtnewsnoe&src_src=rtnewsnoe&utm_campaign=rtbreaking-2024-05-12-1&src_cmp=rtbreaking-2024-05-12-1&utm_medium=email&utm_content=access0&est=AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZeMgIkRb6dvH5LxAvWpUFB4ARlJpfEWq9FYrFR9g5Q%3D%3D
‘Support for freedom of speech is declining dangerously,’ Justice Alito said, while Justice Thomas decried ‘nastiness and the lies’ in the Beltway.
In separate remarks at two different events on Friday, Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito issued warnings about the state of affairs in America today, including support for freedom of speech “declining dangerously” and the nation’s capital becoming a “hideous” place where cancel culture runs rampant.
Justice Thomas spoke at a conference of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit in Point Clear, Alabama, while Justice Alito delivered a commencement address at the Franciscan University of Steubenville, a Catholic college in Ohio, with both of the conservative-minded judges painting a dark picture—while encouraging action and offering hope.
At the Alabama event, Justice Thomas was asked to comment by the moderator—U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle—about what it’s like to work “in a world that seems meanspirited.”
“I think there’s challenges to that,” Justice Thomas said. “We’re in a world and we—certainly my wife and I the last two or three years it’s been—just the nastiness and the lies, it’s just incredible.”
Justice Thomas has faced heavy fire from Democrats who accuse him of skirting disclosure rules, of corruption in general, and of being too cozy with wealthy Republicans. They have not been able to point to any specific court cases in which the justice has misbehaved. Some activists have even pushed for Justice Thomas’s impeachment.
By contrast, over 100 former Supreme Court clerks signed an open letter last year defending Justice Thomas’s integrity, calling him a man of “unwavering principle” whose independence is “unshakable.” They called various critical stories that have targeted him as “malicious” and “perpetuating the ugly assumption that the Justice cannot think for himself.”
“They are part of a larger attack on the Court and its legitimacy as an institution,” the letter also stated. “The picture they paint of the Court and the man for whom we worked bears no resemblance to reality.”
Public opinion polls suggest public trust in the Supreme Court recently fell to new lows.
Addressing the criticism, Justice Thomas said at the Alabama conference that Washington had become a “hideous” place where “people pride themselves in being awful,” while characterizing America beyond the Beltway as a place where regular people “don’t pride themselves in doing harmful things.”
Justice Thomas also expressed concern that court writings have become inaccessible to the average person, engendering a sense of alienation.
“The regular people I think are being disenfranchised sometimes by the way that we talk about cases,” Justice Thomas said, while expressing hope that this could change.
‘It’s Rough Out There’
Justice Alito warned graduates at the Catholic college in Ohio that freedom of speech and religion were both being assailed in today’s America, while expressing hope that young people would take up the mantle and fight for positive change.
In his address, Justice Alito made a reference to pop culture, namely to a graduation speech delivered by the character Thornton Melon (played by Rodney Dangerfield) in the movie “Back to School.”
He jokingly cited Mr. Melon’s advice to graduates, which was not to go out into the world after graduating because “it’s rough out there” and instead move back in with their parents, let them pay all the bills, and “worry about it.”
“As Mr. Melon said, it is rough out there,” Justice Alito said. “It’s probably rougher out there now than it has been for quite some time. But that is precisely why your contributions will be so important.”
Justice Alito said that, outside the walls of the campus, “troubled waters are slamming against some of our most fundamental principles,” referring to freedom of speech.
“Support for freedom of speech is declining dangerously,” he continued, noting that this problem is especially acute on college campuses, which he said are places where the exchange of ideas should be most protected.
“Very few colleges live up to that ideal. This place is one of them … but things are not that way out there in the broader world,” Justice Alito said.
He also raised the issue of freedom of religion being “imperiled,” noting that graduates may find themselves in jobs or social settings where they will be pressured to renounce their beliefs or adopt ones they find morally objectionable.
“It will be up to you to stand firm,” he said.
Notably, Justice Alito authored the 2022 ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade and handed the matter of deciding on abortion rights to states.
Marilyn Mosby: finally, justice comes to Baltimore
By Mike McDaniel
Baltimore’s crime rate continues to skyrocket. Its police force, laboring under a federal consent decree, is badly undermanned and recruiting has proved virtually impossible. The DOJ is doing all it can to prosecute the officers that remain, most of whom keep their heads down and do as little as possible.
And of course, the primary victims of this woke largess are the very poor, inner city black residents of Baltimore who would much prefer the police were allowed to do their jobs.
Freddie Gray was a small-time petty criminal and drug dealer, who back in April of 2015 was arrested for possession of a knife illegal under Baltimore law.
Richly ironic was Gray was hanging out, likely making drug connections, in a Baltimore neighborhood notorious for that. Officers were there that day at DA Marilyn Mosby’s direction in response to community outrage at the lawlessness in the area. Officers made a lawful Terry stop on Gray who ran, was caught and searched, and the knife was found. On the way to jail, Gray was seated in the back of a transport van and was seen and heard to be bashing himself against the interior of the vehicle. Before he arrived at the jail, he managed to break his neck and died, but not immediately.
Rushing to judgment long before a competent investigation could be completed, Mosby charged six officers—three white, three black—with a ridiculous number of felonies. It was an egregious case of charge stacking. Some of them never so much as touched Gray. Mosby, also black, clearly saw political advantage in the charges, and quickly became the social justice hero of the moment. Gray never reached the holy social justice martyr status of George Floyd, whose martyrdom was years into the future.
Mosby, in the meantime, was enjoying her new-found celebrity. Photos of her and her husband Nick abounded, and magazines did tongue-bathing profiles of the newest young, black, female hero, a woman checking DEI boxes before checking DEI boxes became mandatory.
Graphic: ackbarsays, used with permission.
It quickly became obvious there was no criminal there there. The cases, before a black judge who had previously handled police misconduct cases for the federal DOJ, all ended badly for Mosby. The judge turned out to be an honest, non-racist jurist and his carefully considered decisions made clear there was never probable cause to arrest any of the officers, let alone proof beyond a reasonable doubt of any crime. Three of the officers were found not guilty of all charges, and because the remaining three would be tried on the same faulty and/or non-existent evidence, their charges were dismissed. An internal Baltimore Police investigation also eventually exonerated the officers of policy violations.
Throughout the debacle, Baltimore burned and then-Mayor Stephanie Rawlings Blake, also black, destroyed her political career by bizarrely proclaiming she gave the almost entirely black rioters “space to destroy,” by preventing the police from stopping riot, looting and arson. As is all too common for such people, Mosby, apparently thinking herself invulnerable, burned down her own career:
Disgraced former Baltimore District Attorney Marilyn Mosby sobbed in court Tuesday as she was convicted of mortgage fraud — a verdict that could carry decades in prison.
The Democrat served in office from 2015 until she lost her 2022 reelection bid after being indicted on perjury and mortgage fraud charges related to the withdrawal of funds from the city’s Deferred Compensation Plan. [skip]
Mosby, 44, was indicted on both the perjury and mortgage fraud charges in January 2022, and was found guilty of the perjury in November 2023.
Mosby is facing up to 40 years in prison, though as one might expect, Joe Biden is being pressured to pardon her.
Will Biden pardon Mosby? For the moment, that will depend on entirely political calculations. If his handlers think a pardon will help solidify his base, it’s likely. Unfortunately for her, Mosby isn’t Muslim, the identity group Biden’s handlers currently most want to appease. Thus far in the campaign, they’re taking the black vote for granted. If Biden loses the election, expect his handlers, through Biden’s shaky signature, to pardon all manner of miscreants, not the least his family and himself.
In the meantime, Baltimore’s crime rate continues to skyrocket. Its police force, laboring under a federal consent decree, is badly undermanned and recruiting has proved virtually impossible. The DOJ is doing all it can to prosecute the officers that remain, most of whom keep their heads down and do as little as possible.
And of course, the primary victims of this woke largess are the very poor, inner city black residents of Baltimore who would much prefer the police were allowed to do their jobs.
That’s the legacy of social justice martyr Freddie Gray, and Marilyn Mosby, the woman once lauded as the fresh face of young, female, black political success.

Biden/Obama Tied to Child Sex Trafficking; Children,
Bodies Rescued from US Bio-weapon Labs
Under Biden Ukraine Property
Apparently we have a much bigger problem with President Biden than his memory loss and embarrassing public mumblings.
It seems to have all started in 2005 when the then-Senator Barack Obama helped sign a Ukraine US Bio-weapon Lab
agreement where Obama was said to have received his share of the lucrative bio-lab pie.
Twelve years later by Feb. 20 2017 Julian Assange unveiled a bombshell on Fox News Hannity, alleging that Wikileaks
had hard proof that former President Barack Hussein Obama, along with his sidekick Joe Biden, operated and participated
in a pedophile ring based in the White House.
A leaked email released read, “A young boy the age of 5. He will make the perfect catamite for the president.
He will arrive from Romania on Tuesday. I’m sure the president will be pleased.”

he emperor has no clothes -- and the public doesn't like what it sees
By Marc E. Zimmerman
A recent interview of a Biden Administration official illustrates how deep a policy hole this Administration has dug for us in a critical area. A newly recorded dialogue on the U.S. monetary system focused on the nature of money, borrowing, and debt. What was not revealed during this discussion was an acknowledgement that Biden’s economic programs have resulted in a massive inflationary spike during his tenure, with a serious erosion of U.S dollar purchasing power which impacts everyone, every day, when folks shop for food or fill their gas tanks.
The brief narrative presented by Biden’s Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors Jared Bernstein became completely disjointed when he attempted to explain how the Administration, by borrowing, contends with the shortages in tax revenues amounting to trillions of dollars every year to cover federal spending costs.
However, while listening to Bernstein’s dumpster fire of incoherence, a moment of clarity emerged in the midst of his curious interpretations: the presidential appointee had no clue what he was talking about. To wit:
The US government can’t go bankrupt because we can print our own money… well, um… the… uh… so the… I mean… again, some of this stuff gets… some of the language that the MM… some of the language and concepts are just confusing. I mean, the government definitely prints money and it definitely lends that money. Which is why, uh… uh… the government definitely prints money and it lends that money by uh… by selling bonds
Is that what they do? They… they… um… they… yeah… they… they… um… they sell bonds. Yeah. They sell bonds, right? Since they sell bonds and people buy the bonds and lend them the money. Yeah. So, a lot of times, a lot of times, at least to my ear with MMT, the language and the concepts can be kind of unnecessarily confusing, but there is no question that the government prints money and then it uses that money to um… uh… eh… uh… so… um… yeah… I… I… I guess I'm just… I don't… I can't really ta- I don't… I don't get it.
I don't know what they're talking about, like… cause… it's like, the government clearly prints money. It does it all the time, and it clearly borrows. Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this… this conversation. I don't think there's anything confusing there, Bernstein concluded.
From an objective perspective, based on Bernstein’s inscrutable attempt at clarifying a major fiscal tactic employed by the U.S. Treasury, the critical underpinnings of financing the U.S. budget and their effects on the domestic economy appears to be a complete mystery to him. Thus, his position serving as a skilled policy professional is miscast.
Although his educational background consists of a B.A. in music as well as a Master of Social Work degree from Columbia University, it seems it is time for a metaphysical shepherd’s crook to usher him off the economics stage. This type of preparation does not make him qualified to advise the president or anyone, for that matter, on the fields of economics and national budgets. As evidenced by the miserable conditions after three years at the helm, he should no longer have any voice in this arena, as his comprehension of sound methods and outcomes of U.S. economic policies have run afoul of the lofty goals of promoting stable prices, maximum employment of the domestic workforce, and the dependability of the U.S. dollar.
Upon reflection, he might be better suited for a temporary slot at the U.S. Department of Transportation. There he could railroad his disjointed musings over underlings who would likely be unable to track his thoughts but would certainly be kept diverted until being bounced out of office after the upcoming election.

Solar panel manufacturers in the West close without government intervention—they just can’t compete with China’s slave labor and coal-fired energy
By Olivia Murray
If only the absolute necessity of slave labor and “dirty” energy to compete in the solar panel marketplace were enough to convince the progressive Democrats that this isn’t a viable or ethical industry! Wishful thinking, I know.
If you’ve noticed, there are a few topics I tend to gravitate toward, one of which is the “clean” and “renewable” energy scam, for several reasons: one, because of the nauseating waste of real dollars we either earn, or pay for through devaluation; two, because it’s a conspicuous bait-and-switch for global communism, which I utterly loathe; three, because of the severity of the environmental destruction these schemes cause; and four, because the uneducated and ignorant arguments from the advocates of such initiatives is such an insult to anyone with a brain, I just can’t stand to bite my tongue—you don’t get to be that stupid and feel that superior without someone reminding you every so often of your place at the bottom of the intellectual totem pole.
So here am I again, with a hat tip to my friend John for sending me this story via the Jo Nova blog: German solar panel manufacturers are dropping like flies because without government intervention (taxpayer dollars), they can’t compete against China:
About 90% of solar panels installed in Germany come from China, and earlier this year one of the last solar panel manufacturers closed in Germany. Last week, what was left of the industry begged for mercy (and subsidies) which they didn’t get. Now another German solar panel manufacturer has closed down.
So why can’t Germany compete against China? Well, it’s a communist regime unbound by asinine agreements to cripple their own economy—China saturated the solar panel supply because it uses slave labor and “dirty” energy to get its product to the market in the most cost-effective way possible, human casualties be darned:
For some cruel reason German factories which are close to their customers, can’t compete with distant foreign factories which have access to slave labor, fossil fueled shipping and cheap coal fired electricity?
…
China generates 60% of its electricity with coal, while Germany uses 32% coal, and 30% solar-and-wind power. What should Germany do, bring back coal, or get some slaves?
…
Solar panels are now in the ‘top five’ worst slave industries in the world, yet still barely any of the morality-police care. They’re apparently too busy atoning for slavery they didn’t cause that doesn’t exist anymore to worry about slaves that are alive today.
Well, outside of bringing back coal or rounding up some slaves, there is a third option….
Now, while the mockery has been fun (it always is), the joke’s really on we the people (basically always true too) because these German solar panel companies, with failed products and business models, aren’t actually closing for good—they’re just packing up and heading for warmer water, aka a more favorable political climate. Care to wager a guess where that might be?
Well where else but the good ol’ U. S. of A, where corporate welfare handouts enrich even the most worthless “business” schemes of which you’ve ever heard; from Reuters last month:
Losing hope of rescue, some European solar firms head to US
European governments due to move to support their solar power manufacturers this week will be too late to stop solar panel maker Meyer Burger packing up a German factory to send production to the United States.
The plant in Freiberg in eastern Germany closed in mid-March with the loss of 500 jobs, as the Swiss-listed firm joined a growing list of European renewable energy manufacturing factories shutting down or moving. In the past year, at least 10 have said they are in financial difficulties.
Thought that economic refugeeism only referred to people? Well brace yourself, because here comes the stampede of failing corporations too.

That's part of the process....trials & tribulations along the way. Like Jesus, Apostle Paul & many others talk about so much even though these are miniscule.
How to lose billions on EVs
By Mike McDaniel
Senator Sam Ervin said: “A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon you’re talking real money.” Our federal government has been talking trillions for some time now, but the Mummified Meat Puppet Administration’s (MMPA) push for electric vehicles has EV manufacturers talking, and losing, billions.
MMPA mouthpieces like Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm assure us EVs are the future and they’re pushing unconstitutional, unrealizable regulations to force that future down our throats. Unfortunately for them, economic reality is intruding, and Ford provides a disturbing example:
The recent figures are part of a trend of loss for Ford, with their Model e reporting a full-year EBIT loss of $4.7 billion on the sale of 116,000 units. This is an average loss of $40,525 per vehicle — and even that is just a third of the per-vehicle loss seen in the first three months of 2024.
Ford announced months ago it was cutting EV production in half. It took them well over a year, and a $4.7 billion dollar loss—I suspect it’s more—to finally, barely, acknowledge their fiscal responsibilities to their shareholders. What company can afford to sustain those kinds of losses, regardless of their fealty to the MMPA and it’s socialist/communist policies? It would now seem likely Ford is going to have to do more than halve their EV production:
Ford announced earlier this month [April] that the company will delay producing two new electric models, opting for hybrid vehicles instead.
The old aphorism “what can’t go on won’t go on” applies. Ford has possibly, belatedly, realized EVs aren’t going to be the future. As the average EV costs more than $60,000, they’re too expensive for most Americans. The wealthy who buy EVs as greenie street cred have already bought all they want, depleting the market, and the EV charging doom loop is eternal. Without a massive charging network across the country, widespread EV ownership is impossible. But without widespread EV ownership there’s no reason, financial or practical, to build chargers. Neither EVs nor chargers are profitable without huge government subsidies, in effect, forcing people who don’t want and can’t afford EVs to subsidize them for the virtue-signaling wealthy.
Driving the doom loop are wind and solar mandates, which include forcing the closure of reliable coal and natural gas electric generation plants, with no plans to replace them with anything reliable. We don’t have enough generation capacity now, and should the public be forced into EVs, that problem will dramatically, immediately worsen, forcing rolling blackouts across America.
Even better, there aren’t enough rare earths and other necessary materials anywhere on the planet, and most of those that do exist are controlled by China, or China dominates processing. And of course, the MMPA won’t let Americans mine or process those materials in America. They’re also preparing to allow China to flood the American market with cheap, Chinese government-subsidized EVs, the better to force Americans to buy them, and the better to eliminate the American automobile industry, which is finally recognizing economic reality and fiduciary responsibility.
The MMPA allocated billions for building EV chargers, but in a stunning display of federal government know how and efficiency, have, in a few years, built only a handful, and only on the East coast.
But let’s return to Ford and see how 2024 is shaping up:
Ford Motor Company reported a whopping $132,000 loss on each electric vehicle (EV) sold during the first three months of 2024, amassing a $1.3 billion loss.
That’s far more than the MSRP for those vehicles, and much, much more than Ford’s production costs.
The revenue for Ford’s EV car, the Model e, plunged by 84 percent to about $100 million, which the company blamed on EV price cuts across the auto industry.
“That resulted in the $1.3 billion loss before interest and taxes (EBIT), and the massive per-vehicle loss in the Model e unit,” the publication noted.?
Adding to the doom loop is customer’s realization that when Ford no longer produces any EV models, such as the electric Mustang or the electric F-150, parts supplies are going to dry up, and resale value will quickly drop into negative numbers. There will be no used EV market. Unfortunate EV owners will have to pay people to take their worthless EVs off their hands.
But other than all that, sure. EVs are the future—in some other, self-imagined elite constructed, reality.

Yup, I went to the monastery's dentist for a cavity and subsequently got an abcessed tooth, which I'm in the middle of treating down here in south Florida, with another dentist..
When I meet the Lord, I will thank him for a wonderful life and might ask why did he gave us car dealership repair experiences and bad dentists? But I guess I already know the answer. To draw closer to him through suffering :)
They are corrupt in everything! I never would have believed our Country would be this bad or look like this, EVER. Americans better start using their fear as we are all scared and fighting back by educating everyone they meet and getting involved in local elections if able or donating to candidates that can bring us back as able.

3. “Look at what he says he’s going to do if he gets elected. Says he’s going to do away with what I’ve done on Medicare, reducing the price of Medicare.”
4. “You know we have 1,000 billionaires in America. Know what their average federal tax is? 8.3%.”
5. “We’ve already turned it around [on the economy].”

7. “There’s corporate greed going out there. And it’s got to be dealt with.”
8. “[Inflation] was 9% when I came to office.”

14. “I travel around the world, other world leaders, know what they all say, 80% of them, ‘You gotta win. My democracy is at stake.’”

One of Alvin Bragg's paralegals admitted on the stand today in the Trump trial that his office deleted three pages worth of phone calls between Stormy Daniels' lawyer Keith Davidson and Michael Cohen.
Not only that but they submitted the call records into evidence but didn't mention to Trump's team that some of the files were deleted.
This trial becomes more insane by the day.

REPORT: It seems that Joe Rogan doesn’t think too highly of Chris Cuomo after revealing that he has a vaccine injury.
“That guy was pushing that sh*t on tv forever, and he said he got it with his first dose, and then he got it again with his second dose.”
What’s surprising is Cuomo recently admitted that “Joe Rogan was right” about ivermectin, the public was misled about it with “bad information,” and that “the entire clinical community knew that ivermectin couldn’t hurt you.”
It’s true. Ivermectin has an immaculate safety profile. It’s safer than Tylenol, very hard to overdose on (even at extreme doses), and it has been administered over 3.7 billion times to HUMANS.
Ivermectin got its nickname as a “miracle drug” for bringing river blindness to the brink of extinction. It’s also on the World Health Organization’s list of essential medications and now shows profound potential for treating cancer.
Chris Cuomo, who once said people should be “shamed” for promoting ivermectin, now takes the drug “regularly” for his “long COVID” diagnosis.
It’s funny how the truth reveals itself. It turns out that the “conspiracy theorists” were right all along.

“The Deep State Party will put up ‘Republican Candidates’ that ARE NOT MAGA PEOPLE, and we want MAGA, NOT Republicans so you can’t vote a straight Republican ticket. You are going to have to know which candidates are MAGA to make your vote count, it’s as simple as that.”
“So, know your candidates, right?”
“You have to know who you’re voting for, or should I say you have to know what you’re voting for: the Deep State or the Constitution (MAGA).”
