In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Whenever the possibility presents, throw sand into the machinery…

Isn’t that special?
Send your kids to school and Marxism 101 starts in kindergarten.
They have to get em early to make sure they fall in line with the agenda.
If they use the wrong pronouns they’ll be charged with sexual harassment, like in Wisconsin.
https://www.foxnews.com/us/middle-schoolers-sexual-harassment-gender-pronouns
Those people will win a lot of money from that school district.
What ought to happen is that a whole bunch of kids should go in to their teachers and announce the pronouns they have chosen for themselves. They should make it as complicated as possible. Say, “I wish sometimes to be he/ them, she/, it/zit, x/shem, etc.
Then, the first time a kid says the teacher or any school personnel messed up, his parents should make a huge stink.
This is the most insidious thing I have heard.
Better yet, maybe the parents should call for a total boycott of school by the kids
Most public schools get their money from the ADA (average daily attendance) . They don’t get the money if the absence is not an actual illness or medical necessity such as a doctor’s appointment.
By calling in and saying “My child is boycotting your indoctrination center,” the district cannot collect money for that day for that child, unless, of course, they lie.
Depending on who the judge is!
or get a few kids to say – my teacher taught me to masturbait today – then charge those people with Sex Crimes Against Children.
Good point. Wouldn’t these teachers be charged with sex crimes if they did this out on the street or at a store or a playground? I imagine if an adult came up to a kindetgartener at the store and said I’m going to teach you how to masturbate, the parent would immediately call the police.
Insanity.
I’ve seen similar stories since the 1990s and still 90% of parents send their kids to public school.
I pulled both of my kids out of the government school in our neighborhood in 1990.
The reason was because the government school started teaching in a turd world language.
My kids only spoke English.

Italy’s Salvini warns food shortages could cause 20 million African migrants to enter Europe.
zero hedge
Why would Europeans put up with scavengers coming to take their food? Why are we in the USA putting up with it? There soon will not be enough to go around. We are prepared in my household, but shelves are getting bare. Produce won’t last more than a few days (can’t wait to harvest my own from my garden later on). There’s no baby formula. Yet we will ALLOW millions of scavengers to suck us dry? Why? Repel all boarders!
All the tough, hardened and patriotic Brits, Germans, French and Italians were killed off in WWI and WW2. What’s left are mostly Woke Soy Boys!
Have said the same about America…..where have they all hidden? We used to have a lot of great people, now, not so many. Glad they got their jobs done before they hid themselves away….cause they got scared.
I don’t know many parents in the USA who will idly sit around and let foreigners steal the food from their American childrens’ mouths.
Then it must have been their ghosts serving with me in Bosnia….
Why do we put up with scavengers coming across our borders? I expect any day for the PTB to tell us that every American family must take in 2 or 3 ‘undocumented’ aliens because none of us selfish rich people need 3 bedrooms or 2 bathrooms. Until action is taken, none of this will stop.
You’re right. That’s what’s coming next. No more private ownership. They’re hoping to starve us to death before we revolt.
What would you do? I know what I would do. Those pigs have to sleep sometime.
Depopulate Africa to strip mine it for Electric Vehicles. Got it.
Freedom ring: That’s the goal.
guess who controls that gateway? Turkey.
Sounds like that’s the plan?
The Real Reason for Record Gas Prices
This is worse than garbage. This is pre-chewed, pre-digested, regurgitated, garbage.
It’s beyond time everyone who isn’t already on the left to stop taking ANYTHING the left says seriously. They are a joke and should be treated as such. It’s the fact that people are willing to compromise or meet any of them half way is the reason they have been able to make progress at all.
When I see idiots who depend on petroleum products protest them, you know they aren’t serious people. When these same people pretend to stand up for women and then set about destroying the interests of women in wide ranging ways and then refuse to DEFINE what a woman is at all? These are not serious people.
And they KNOW they don’t believe the garbage they claim. The left is about ONE thing and that’s power. They have shown themselves to be liars and betrayers at every turn. And the sooner people see it the better.

Fox News is covering UFO Hearing.
National Security, dontcha know,
SMH
The fox is way off the trail of matters that matter out here.
2000 Mules……OH LOOK over there! A spaceship!!
2000 Mules …… OH NO!!! Covid gonna get us ALL!
2000 Mules….. …. elections? what elections? what do you mean stolen elections??? Off with your mic. It’s a threat to national security.
SMH too.
Behold today’s federally funded and controlled press.
The breach of the Capitol was when these anti-Constitutional criminals stole our Right to Self-Government from the People.
Nothing will ever be right again until that is undone.
Mrs. Barnette’s peaceful march to petition Congress for Redress of Grievances is a Badge of Honor. You might even call it an authentic “Integrity Initiative”, instead of the Orwellian double-speak version.
The real question is, why weren’t they all there?
Yes !
Go Gipper!
Mrs Barnette supports BLM.
NOT a fan of BLM.
The Breach of the Capitol? You mean The People’s House, don’t you?
That statement is what has bothered me the most…..I grew up being told, and realizing that that WAS the People’s House…..but we are not allowed to be in said house. I mean, the People paid for the house, always has and always will, but we can not be in or even see inside it without getting permission from pissy?
Seems as if Oz has had the benefit of free political ads via Hannity and Co. Is this legal?
The other candidates have been on Bannon’s War room.
Babylon Bee Weak-ly News Update
YuckBoob? WHY? 🙁
Elon Musk slams Biden. Musk claims whoever is running the teleprompter has the path to power. He also says he is neither Republican or Democrat, but he speaks like a businessman about inflation and the state of the country. Fair enough. He also notes howCalifornia needs to be cleaned up. It was once a truly golden place to live.
Musk does not embrace Trump but does acknowledge that Trump’s Administration was effective at getting things done. I guess it is too difficult or people to listen to what you have to say if you are able to give President Trump credit for being a great President.
https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/elon-musk-biden-real-president-teleprompter
FNC is deep State now.
Who pays any attention to FNC any more? They are traitors to those who used to be faithful listeners….(watchers).
It really amazes me, the number of people in positions of actual or assumed authority over others, who are incapable of simple logic.
That’s why our Constitution was written, to protect us drom the wilfully stupid making our decisions for us.
That’s why it was wrong for President Trump to sign and the keep signing various emergency orders that had the effect of suspending our Constitution and conferring imagined 10th Amendment dictatorial powers on governors.
That’s why Amy Coney Barrett is as big a threat to the Republic as we knew it, as Ketanji Brown Jackson. That’s why she’s on the court.
It seems to me we could have put a stop to this madness at several points since the start, which was in March 2020, but we didn’t love freedom enough, or something.
It was never about a virus.
Defiance. Not compliance. I will not wear a submission diaper. I will not take the clotshot. End. Of. We don’t have to march with pitchforks and rifles. We just have to say and mean “NO!” By that, we become ungovernable without “rioting” or “parading” or “insurrection” or whatever label they want to slap on us.
I’d wear it to get closer to the enemy with a defined end goal. thats about it
Just put on your ghillie suit and ambush. No need to suffocate yourself.
haha.
I’ll go with that.
The repeal of the 17th amendment will change the politics of government forever, but it will NEVER happen.
mobs saying no is more effective than any Law on Earth.
Their last argument is “You may still get Covid but it will be mild.” Horsepucky! Our Vet was fully vaxed, got covid and said that it was the worst thing she ever went through. I’m 70, got it last Christmas, was tired lost taste and smell(that was the toughest part). Recovered fully after 2 weeks or so.
Dr. Robert Califf is on TV saying the President does not have to activate the Defense Production Act to fix the US Government inspired Baby Formula Crisis.
Just a little not on our great FDA director. Dr. Califf worked very closely with pharmaceutical companies at the Duke clinical trials center “convincing them to do large, expensive, and, for Duke, profitable clinical trials.” He was a paid consultant from 2009 to 2013. From that point he became Comrade Obama’s 2015-2017 and NOW Sock Puppet JoeBama’s 2020 to Present BIG PHARMA stooge as FDA Commissioner.
The most interesting stint was the focused 2016 to 2017 stint where trials and studies were run at Duke and North Carolina about the time Dr. Faucci took his poison to China Inc. for deployment.
Every single person in the current JoeBama administration who is a leader in anything US Government Health Related worked for Comrade Obama 2009-2017 and had a hand in developing COVID for China INC. as well as the shamdemic vaccines. That reported $350 million in NIH royalties was the top of the massive iceberg wrecking the US.
Here’s the text for the funding bill (HR 7691) for Ukraine that the Senate voted 81-11 for cloture yesterday:
*https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/7691/text (remove*)
Lots of pork for everyone–foreign and domestic!
37 Republicans voted for it, only 11 republicans voted against, 2 did not vote, All Democrats voted for it with 6 not voting
Always remember “the UniParty.” There is no functional difference between Republicrat and Demoblican. They have the power to vote money into their own pockets, and their personal greed for money consumes them … No matter how much money they now have, it is never enough. To get more “money,” they conjure it out of thin air.
How could I ever possibly forget when it is obvious on a daily basis!
“Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.” Epicurus.
A one-party country is in truth a no-party country. We are almost there.
The better to deal with inflation, you know. For them but not for us.
PS- I notice that the Senate won’t even bother being in session until after party caucus luncheons/meetings today. The Senate won’t convene until 2;30 pm. Guess there’s not really any important issues to address in America after a 5 hour Thursday, off Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and a 4 hour Monday with 8 Senators who didn’t even bother to show up.
I’d get fired. They keep Twitter code jockey hours.
Yeah man, but I’m going to do better soon, because I want a promotion. My standard of living is down because of inflation.
LOL!
They don’t report any of this sh*t at all they effectively only work 2 days a week. It doesn’t get reported enough or talked about enough.
It’s all just a big grift.
And when they are there, most of their time is spent hitting up donors.
Joe Blow can make all the recess appointments that his handlers want.
PDJT couldn’t make any recess appointments. All 100 senators voted to deny him that right.
I’ll never forget it.
President Trump joined President William Henry Harrison – who died after only one month in office – as the only US Presidents with ZERO recess appointments.
The entire Senate is suspect.
We keep hearing how RINO’s are soooo concerned about inflation… while they continue to vote for it.
This latest $40 billion of Ukrainian pork got Yay votes from Senators John Kennedy, Tim Scott, and Ron Johnson. We don’t have anyone in the Senate I trust.
Richard Burr and Pat Toomey sat it out because reasons… but we know where their hearts lie anyway.
I’m not entirely sure why the other ten Senators were allowed to join Rand Paul and vote against it… some kind of optics I guess. I’m not good at 4D chess.
https://legiscan.com/US/rollcall/HB7691/id/1204776
Teddy Cruz and John Corn are in on the scam too. I wonder how much a YES vote is worth.
Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott also voted for the 40 bil.
<The Senate won’t convene until 2;30 pm. Guess there’s not really any important issues to address in America…>
Possibly because Sen. Chris Van Hollen [D-Maryland] is still in hospital and they only have 49 votes?
Good observation.
Well, I see that Foam Boi and Skeletor, both (U) from FL voted for this. And the only choice we are given in Val Demings to replace Foam Boi. Lovely.
AG. We have a tough road to hoe here in FL. I see here in the Panhandle, that Capt. SK with True the Vote has us listed as #51 in Mule delivery fraud. I have been working with TTV in reviewing voter rolls. I have to start somewhere.
To have the blessing to move 7 years ago, to enjoy the beach and warmth in the latter years of my hard working life, I say this. With five children and 14 Grandchildren, I am silent no more. I am a simple man. I just wanted to be left alone. I will challenge any “untruth” said or written with factual truth, stating so with such determination there will be no hiding the end of the conversation. You cannot reason with the criminal insane.
100% agree. I’m involved in poll watching for the first time ever here in the Big Bend. You know, if we could get somebody from the RED part of the state some grassroots traction, we might take that Missouri carpetbagger Skeletor down when he comes up for election again. He was a crap governor (He sold our executive planes after the Legislature had already appropriated funds for their upkeep and pilots for the year–Scott said he didn’t need them because he had his own plane. And who can forget the fines HCA paid for Medicare fraud under his leadership? The guy is sketch as they come.)
Actually, we need to infiltrate the (D) with a DINO and run both the R and D tickets with MAGA candidates. The D do it to us all of the time. Turn about is fair play.
But who could stomach it?
Some one here posted we is WEF. I am sure to take fire for not having the link, maybe the intrepid original poster could help a brother out.
South Carolina: Graham (R-SC), Yea Scott (R-SC), Yea
Gee, I’m shocked.
I contacted both of their offices about voting no last week… got a form letter best summarized as “I heart Ukraine” from Graham… crickets from Tim Scott.
Same.

Slag says:
But I remember this quote from the great author, Arthur C. Clarke:
“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
He also thinks that whatever the army has planned it is too late for the enemy to stop or prevent what is coming
Ukraine update: Azovstal Nazis surrendered, less than two days after the rumored capture of retired Admiral Eric Thor Olson, along with a British officer, and others. Austin requested a ceasefire that Russia rejected. No one has seen Lt. Gen. Roger Cloutier or Canadian Trevor Cadieu in person in quite some time, suggesting that they too are in Russian hands. Now Italy and France suddenly want peace negotiations.
It’s almost as if the Russians got what or who they wanted out of the Azovstal siege, and now Russia holds the upper hand in some way.
If the Olson rumor is true, I find his career pathway of great interest. What might he know of the demise of Seal Team 6, for example?
Under international law, is Russia permitted to execute these people?
FOAD 1689.
NATO wanna be startin’ something… 🤨
https://www.infowars.com/posts/nato-starts-drills-near-russian-border/
The stupidity is strong with these cucks.
JoBama has been pushing for nuclear war with Russia for months now.
What’s that saying about “knocking on the devil’s door”?
“Don’t be surprised when someone answers”
Well, if we go up in radioactive dust, I hope that stupid, warmongering, pedo, grifter understands that his family will be wiped out, too, even the “smartest guy he knows”(TM).
Not if the smartest guy has been taken to a safe house in China.
Don’t you mean “WHEN” we go up in radioactive dust? The whole group seems to think it won’t be them, just “the others” that they don’t like…never them.
LEFT handed salute?
Figures.
He’s signaling to his handlers, military protocol be d@mned. The left handed path and leftpanzee politics. This guy is EVIL.
Evil or actually mentally impaired with Dementia, Parkinson’s, etc. where he’s incapable of stopping those who are pulling his marionette strings.
He’s past his best if used by date.
Evil. They really want this war to escalate.
A note about the NAME of the “Military Exercise”, Hedgehog.
It is actually a tactical-operational term coined in WWII, originally by the GERMANS in the Winter of 1942 when the invading GERMANS were counter attacked by the Russians (USSR) at the Gates of Moscow. The Germans were so ill prepared that they relied on Units sacrificing themselves in all-round defensive (isolated) “hedgehogs” across the Northern-Central Fronts to slow and/or stop advances by the Soviets. If Hitler felt a particular “hedgehog” was a key location, he honored those who were about to die by declaring them a “Fortress” position.
Look at picture of the animal and it will be apparent why the term hedgehog was adopted.
NATO is attempting to convey “the message” that massive tide of Russians is coming that will surround Eastern EU nations. This is a “defensive” exercise. The name of the Exercise has more meaning to the Russians and EU members than the actual exercise itself, other than more US $$$ being poured into their nations.
NYTimes, 1942:
LONDON, March 13 — Adolf Hitler has escaped — for this Winter — the fate of Napoleon in the snows of Russia. That is the frank, realistic view of the Winter war in Russia expressed by responsible military circles, which attribute Herr Hitler’s escape to a good supply system and an ingenious method of establishing defensive strong points known as “hedgehogs” or “porcupines.”
They’re openly celebrating the alliance of the NATO/NAZI Axis Powers.
Well, the fedgov of the UNSSRA (United NAZI and Soviet Socialist Republic of America) supports and arms actual NAZIs in Ukie-puke. So, I imagine we will start calling things by NAZI names and sieg heiling all over the place. When do our soldiers start goose-stepping? SPIT!
Here’s a portion of the Soviet anthem of 1944. I don’t think NATO or the Azov/Right Sektor will break Russia any time soon. Do you?
We fought for the future, destroyed the invaders,
And brought to our homeland the laurels of fame.
Our glory will live in the memory of nations
And all generations will honor her name.
Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people’s mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.
Thank you for the historical context. I learn so much from many here at the CTH.

NATO has to create the roadshow to justify the 40 billion grift.
Interesting that 14 countries are involved in these NATO exercises with 4 of those listed not in NATO.
So why are only 1/3 of NATO countries (10 of of 30) participating? So much for one for all and all for one, eh?
Another great MAGA issue but will have guaranteed GOP opposition:
Revise the libel laws so you no longer have to be a mind reader.
It isn’t enough to prove that a media person or company lied. You have to prove they lied with the intent to harm. Even if you show the media knew the truth and still lied, it isn’t enough.
Change the law so just the act by itself is enough. Punishment should include a retraction as prominently placed as the lie and including the guilty verdict. Financial penalties should cover all court costs including the plaintiff plus damages plus a fixed fine big enough to hurt.
When it happened, the photo looked bad but the footage was pretty clear that the guy was innocent. It took 5 min to realise what the truth was. And I agree, I hope he sues.
Look the composition of every single “appointed” and “professional” person staffing a LEADERSHIP role in anything Health Related within the US Government Today.
They were (are) ALL Comrade Obama staffers and they all had very important roles in BIG PHARMA or Academia during the development and/or deployment of COVID as well as related “vaccines”.
The US Senate has already endorsed the LEADERSHIP within the Executive Branch for the UN-WHO to use as Executives in the US. All that remains is ratification of the Treaty. The US Federal Court System is ready to rule in favor of the “Public Good” defense.
Sounds like Australia and other “ex-Western Style Democratic” nations are set to do the same.
A US Senate Ratified Treaty has the same force as a Legislated Federal Code related Act.
This is the reason to keep a watch out through ALL hyped media flak and chafe for the fate of the US Government’s appeal of the Florida Mask Mandate Case. That Case was NOT won on science or math but strictly on “lack of legislated law”. A ratified treaty undoes this issue.
Given the composition of the current Supreme Court and their belief in the “Public Good” defense, the outcome is a 50-50 at best.
I hear that argument but I think we are at the point of such distrust in our government where many states, localities, and citizens would choose to ignore.
Allowing a foreign bureaucrat to tell us we have to wear a mask would incite ridicule and civil disobedience in much of the country.
You must have missed or slept through the pre-mask removal 2-year period 2020-2022 (April). It was not the States that did the majority of the mandating but every form of business that acted in response to the mandates or be fined and closed. Follow the mandate or NO service from every form of service … medical services, shopping, to pumping gas.
There was NOT a single states that did not have a period of mandates of some form.
There is no such thing as “ignoring”.
Also Australia: “Premier Dan Andrews is passing a bill that prohibits people from growing their own food.
The Agricultural Legislation Amendment Bill 2022 has had its second reading in parliament. Biosecurity is stated as the reason for the changes.”

Given some of the freakazoids I used to see at Wally World, they couldn’t pay me enough to manage one. Blech. Glad I shop local now.
Just wish there were some “local” places to shop where I live, but not sorry that I live where I do. Lot less trouble than most places, so guess I’ll settle for the grocery stores here that sell as much stuff as they can.
This is why the prices of everything are doubling and more.
Not at all surprised in this day and age.

Pharmacist Opens J&J Vaccine Box Insert
May 16, 2022
https://rumble.com/v14y3vo-pharmacist-opens-vaccine-box-insert.html
Maybe the printer ran out of ink what with all the supply chain issues and shortages!!!
Look at the SIZE of the blank document of warnings and side effects. And noticing that they ran out of ink is a part of quality control.
I think I saw that last year.
I recall that this was done one year with the flu shots. The media claimed a shortage which did not exist to try to stimulate a demand.
More woke media whoppers about Covid vaccines
Politico says the US may face rationing of the miracle shots; in truth demand is near zero and 150 million shots are sitting in freezers. (Plus some good news about GoFundMe.)
Alex Berenson
I try not to spend too much time chasing lies from elite media outlets about the mRNA shots. Doing so would be a more than full-time job.
Plus they never correct anything anyway, much less apologize.
But Politico’s recent article claiming that the United States is about to face Covid vaccine rationing is just too absurd to ignore. The article is not just untrue, it is the opposite of true.
https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/more-woke-media-whoppers-about-covid?s=r
How close to 100% is it that “rationing” is their way of throwing in the towel/admitting defeat of any more folks getting jabbed?
This Big Lie also enables Three-Card Fauci and his Pfizer-Pfaker politicians to keep ordering more Kickback Vaxx by the $Billions, even though no one is taking it.
“Rationing” is a trigger word that will cause many people who’ve been undecided up to now about getting the jab, to decide to go ahead and get jabbed “before it becomes hard to get”. The folks who make the decision have not realized the depth and breadth of the lies behind the quackcine advocates, and as such those folks likely have little understanding of the mortal danger the deadly mRNA concoctions pose to normally healthy human immune systems.
wish they would claim a shortage…(an actual shortage)…I’m tired of all the ‘false claims’ they have put to commercials saying how all these doctors think the shot is the best thing that has happened, and everyone needs to get theirs. not
unfortunately that is not really a joke
Senate quietly advanced the $ Ukraine Aid-Bailout last night. 11 Senators now voted NO. Before it was only ONE Senator saying no. ( Newsweek lists those No vote senators )
@RandPaul , remarks on Thurs. and MASSIVE phone calls could turn the tide…..Keep Calling.

202-224-3121
I messaged both Rubio and Scott, but they both will do Mitch’s bidding. I will do what I did in 2016 and leave US Senate BLANK again in Nov. Rubio can KMA. Also, Rand Paul is not a strong NO vote, just wants “more control” over how the $ are spent.
The oversight was a poison pill , and you saw it annoyed Schumer , LOL.
Whatever works
I too wrote them and told them if they support Biden and the 40 billion give away I will not vote for the Senate or Congress slot and only vote for Governor Desantis in 2022. Do nothing John Rutherford is my rep and he is absolutely awful. What is the difference on the national level whether there is a Dem or a Rino. The Republican party has gone along with everything Biden has wanted.
So is my supposedly conservative republican Tom McClintock. He hasn’t said a word about our Patriots in the gulag which hasn’t been reported as much as it should. As a lot of people here have been observing is that NEWSMAX is starting to look a lot like FOX NEWS. They are starting to SUCK.
They have an interest in keeping the status quo.
Can’t rock the boat when it comes to money.$$$$$$$$$
How much trouble are we as a country in?
Walmart missed their earnings, per Zerohedge. WM, I’ve always thought, is a pretty accurate economic weathervane.
While none of us needs telling where we are, apparently Wall Street does. Let’s see if that cold slap knocks some sense into corporate America, one half of our fascist rulers.
Morning Betsy J.,
We are very small time “ players” but find “the game” stimulating.
Our small holdings in two Canadian “ giants” in the energy field have performed spectacularly.
Suncor ( Alberta Oil) and Enbridge ( Pipelines etc)
They are cyclical to sure, but were bought a few years back in large part because we are contrarians, and they were getting trashed by many of the” financial elite”
We hold them still because of the healthy dividends.
Who knows, if these energy plays will hold up, but all the Bitcoin, Tech Stocks, Etc.😏
Although exciting sure don’t heat homes, provide energy for Greenhouses, Diesel Trucks or Fly them planes.
Cheers to you!
Hey, D!! Yes, one has to choose and I’m glad your dividend are paying dividends😉
No speculating here. Especially with erratic Bitcoin etc. What goes up WILL go down.We have to protect our limited seed corn which is being eaten away with inflation. We are of that age.
Off this topic, Dekester, but had you seen in your Mother country deaths are increasing dramatically for newborns? So much so that it cannot be ignored by what passes for the news there. A lot of head scratching going on.
I thought of you and that new bairn. I hope he is thriving and a happy baby, much loved and cuddled. (oh…and please…Bet to my friends, which I’m so glad to count you as one.) Blessings to all, D!
When prices double in a week. or month people stop buying. I went to buy some paint 3 days ago the new price was 120% more than the last price I bought at a few months back.
Dadgum!!!!!
I’d love to see Walmart’s internal statistics for the past two years on inventory losses due to theft – both front door (shoplifting) and back door (employee theft).
IMO it has to be astronomical, considering their lax security and dearth of proactive theft prevention measures
.
What about how they recoup their ‘losses’?
Just ONE item shelf priced for $2.58 that rings up $2.78 on the register throughout every store in every state (say, it is a gallon of milk) that is bought multiple times throughout the day at multiple stores garners that corporation a volume based system that few people will complain about (i.e., $.20 each) . . .
Yours is a legitimate question. That’s why I’d be very interested to see their inventory losses as a percent of sales. Theft – whether internal or external – drives up “cost of goods sold” by adding the cost of goods stolen to the cost of goods that were actually sold. Obviously that drives up selling price to try to recover the lost profits from theft.
Theft has always been an issue for retailers – especially the large national chains. But I have a hunch that since 2020 it has skyrocketed because of “George Floyd” anti-white racist attitudes and because of covid putting large numbers of people out of work, despite being handed tax-free government money multiple times.
I would as well, GB. I reckon it’s A you say, especially in blue areas.
2 p.m. E.T. interview of Jerome Powell by WSJ reporter Nick Timiraos
Seems to be problems with the judge in the Sussman case. The jury pool contains Hillary donors and other conflicts as well.
The Durham case shouldn’t be held ANYWHERE near DC.
Tons of problems. Enough so that he should have recused from the get go. And now needs to be forced to recuse.
He offered to recuse, Durham said no. What side do you think Durham resides?
Wonder if Durham knew of his connections then?
Not gonna see that happen.
No…but a girl can dream.
As bad as the jury is, they may be less of a problem than the judge.
They’ve leaked the jury’s preliminary vote on his acquittal of the main charges , but they did convict him on minor charge of wearing the same suit to court too any days in a row , so Durham got something …,
What was other case , big time lawyer, former WH counsel? . Charge : violating foreign lobbyist law , like General Flynn sort of , they went through the motions and was acquitted of all charges by DC jury in like 15 minutes , business as usual for right defendant , so call me an optimist ( sarcasm)

Unfortunately, it is. When I was on active duty at Fort Bragg between 1983 and 1990, a time that included the Grenada and Panama operations, the greatest killer of paratroopers was the motorcycle.
Could be Highway Statistics …. the annual AVG is .00058 deaths per year.
There are 55,000+ Troops at Ft Bragg
XVIII Corps Troops
82nd Division Troops
Special OPS Command Troops
That is an Approx Annual AVG of 32, so your assertion would not be surprising. Given the way the Military Folks whom I knew (officers and enlisted) rode those bikes with wild abandon. Many I knew didn’t even consider anything under a 1,000 cc Bike as worthy of being riden.
They speed like crazy. They do regard life with wanton abandon.
Makes sense. If you recall Pelosi and Schumer doing the boogey dance after they left that meeting with Trump and they thought they goaded him into war with Iran. I’ll never forget that video.
They have to start the wars so they can send Billions over seas in their money lauder operations.
That and stock options.
Raytheon blows it up.
Haliburton rebuilds.
Own stock in the bullets and the bandages.
You can make money trading those stocks. LMT, NOC and RTX They have been making a good run lately. Trade it and make money.
I currently own DE and BA, BA is Boeing, it’s gone from a$450 stock to a low of 120 WOW what a big dump for America’s flagship aerospace achievement. I happen to own that POS stock from 325.00 and the CEO David Calhoun should be summarily FIRED!
Back to War: Biden reverses Trump withdrawal, sends ground troops into greater Middle East
First Ukraine, now Somalia.
Jordan Schachtel
It’s official: America is back at war in the greater Middle East. In addition to the ongoing defense industry enrichment project in Ukraine, Somalia has been added to the client list. America’s military industrial cartel is back in the saddle under President Biden.
https://dossier.substack.com/p/back-to-war-biden-reverses-trump?utm_source=%2Fprofile%2F10549335-jordan-schachtel&utm_medium=reader2&s=r
So 81 million Americans voted to send our troops back into Somalia to bleed and die some more since it’s an existential threat? Who knew? In reality it’s so we can create more “refugees” and bring more illiterate Somalis here to become citizens, vote for Democrats and run for Congress so they tell us how racist and f-uped our country is!!!
The big premise of the RINO is they are “electable”. However, that is based on the one way street where conservatives must back RINOs or they are traitors.
What happens to “electable” once that presumption finally ends? What happens when conservatives actually just say no and do what RINOs do (withhold support in the general)?

Kathy Barnette said she won’t support Oz if he wins the Senate primary today. Nor will 41% of Pennsylvania Republicans, because that’s how high his disapproval is.
Oz was booed at his own rally! And he voted in the last election in Turkey.
For all the Republican Establishment’s talk about electability, Oz is the one a plurality of Republicans dislike. For all the Republican Establishment’s talk about vetting, Oz is the one with the shady background and past liberal positions on issue after issue.

“All race politics is bad, no matter what flavor it is. It’s poison. It subsumes the individual into the group. It dehumanizes people. It elevates appearance over God-given qualities that make people unique yet morally equal to each other.”

Good Reasons to Help Ukraine
“The Significance of Ukraine”
By M. E. Boyd, 05/17/2022

Boyd does a good job of laying out the facts, including the Usurper’s initial willingness to let Putin have his way in Ukraine.
I will not comment further, Boyd does the job without help or expansion.

The Color revolution (coup)perpetrated by the US
The US installing a puppet regime to launder $$$
Allowing nazis to be in the Ukraine military
Ukraine is a democrat money laundry. Kickbacks, bribes, and threats are the norm there.
There’s no good reason to keep pouring our money into that corrupt dump on the other side of the world.
The US is broke and still inviting the rest of the world to come here illegally.
At this point, I couldn’t care less about Ukraine.
Uniparty money laundromat.
Russia invaded Ukraine.
Ukraine is the victim.
Putin is the bully.
Bullies hate it when victims fight back.
The FOPs (Friends of Putin) responded with some of Putin’s favorite bits of disinformation.
Zelensky replaced the Ukrainian regime that was actually involved with U.S. politicians. To say otherwise is like blaming Trump for the Obama administration’s international blunders.
I’m beginning to believe that anti-Ukrainian conservatives are knee-jerk against anything Liberals and RINOs support, aside, of course, from the actual Putin trolls.
There’s no cure for it once you’ve gulped the Libertarian isolationism that nearly let Western Civilization get flushed down the toilet in WWI and WWII.
There were no end of Hitler apologists and American Fascists before WWII.
Concur. Starting to wonder if it is Bots rather than genuine opinions. Tone has changed on CTH. Lots of new names. What say you Admin?
I am not a bot, are you one of those that drives around with the Ukranian flag or have it hanging on your house. The way I see it in my neck of the woods the only ones doing that have the Black lives matter signs or there is no hate has no place here only love. That’s ok if you do but I guess I will lump you in with those clowns, see how you can turn it around.

Congress would spend more on the border if they could get a kick back
They get a bigger kick back from leaving the border open
I would not be surprised if the drug cartels are giving them a sizeable kickback to keep it open. You think they only bribe Mexican officials?
We would need to outbid them.
Summary of US HB7691 | 2021-2022 | 117th Congress
Provides $40.1 billion in FY2022 emergency supplemental appropriations for activities to respond to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The bill provides appropriations to several federal departments and agencies, including the Department of Justice, the Department of Defense, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of State, the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Department of Agriculture, and the Department of the Treasury.
Among other things, the bill provides appropriations for defense equipment, migration and refugee assistance, regulatory and technical support regarding nuclear power issues, emergency food assistance, economic assistance, and seizures of property related to the invasion.

I never heard of this before “Fusion”
https://ballot-access.org/2022/05/13/south-carolina-bill-banning-fusion-passes-on-last-day-of-session/
On May 12, the South Carolina legislature passed SB 108, which bans fusion. “Fusion” means the ability of two parties to nominate the same candidate. BAN had earlier thought this idea had failed. But the ban on fusion had been transferred out of HB 4919 (a bill that did not pass) and into another bill, SB 108.
Assuming the Governor signs it, that will leave only two states with disaggregated fusion, New York and Connecticut. “Disaggregated fusion” means the candidate is listed twice on the ballot, once under each party label. That gives the voters the ability to decide which party label they prefer.
https://ballot-access.org/2022/05/17/south-carolina-governor-signs-bill-banning-fusion/
On May 13, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster signed SF 108, the bill that bans fusion. He signed it the next day it was sent to him.
I think some places have same candidate on say Democrat and Green. Republican and Conservative. I don’t think it can be same candidate on “opposite” parties.

This sounds like something Liz Cheney would like to do in WY . . .
They are commonly referred to as “Independents” to getting around any sticky regulations.
Once elected they “caucus” with a major party “to be heard”.
Uniparty Operatives say quietly: lets split the MAGA vote AND undermind PDJT’s credibility with his base by funding and pushing Barnette. Those dumbasses will let us get the vote close enough to push McCormick over the edge for a win.
regarding citizenship
Oz needs access to his mother to help her.
Would you leave your senile elderly mother in a third world nation run by an Islamofascist who thinks he’s the reincarnation of Suleiman the Magnificent? There’s something very off about that excuse to me. He could easily get her over here on humanitarian grounds if nothing else.
Is she senile? Perhaps the elderly mother refuses to leave her home and her homeland.
I understood that the lady is senile from something I read a few days ago. When their minds go, we have a duty to protect the elders. I know from experience that may mean making living arrangements for them that are safe, but perhaps not to their liking.
I hope I don’t get dementia, but if I do, I pray that my son cares enough to take the keys and bring me to live with him, whether or not I like it.
When McConnell was leader of the senate, he held up Gorsuch and prevented him from being on the supreme court. This has proven to be a good thing. If he becomes senate leader again, he has given up the ability to determine the next supreme court justice by, for the first time in history, confirming a justice before there was a vacancy. For this failure alone, he should not be allowed to ever again be the senate majority leader. The next republican senate leader needs to withdrawal the confirmation, if the dims complain, which they will, ram it through anyway, grow some DeSantis spine.

Psst . . .
(Gorsuch should be Garland.)
What time will FOX news call the election for ‘ their guy ‘ with 0 % of the vote counted ?
I voted in the NC primary this morning. We voted with paper ballots, black ink and the ballot was fed thru a vote tabulator. No internet connection. It was refreshing and I’m hopeful we are making progress on election integrity.
We voted with paper ballots, black ink and the ballot was fed thru a vote tabulator.

Was that black ink in a Sharpie . . .?
No. Regular ballpoint ink.
The last election, I voted on a touch screen and pulled a dang lever. Today was a distinct difference.

Right now, that is a link to empty air. Live show must be over.
I called the senate offices of Cruz and Cornyn. There is no way to leave a message because their voice mail is full.
Thank You , good to hear.
Try emailing. I did. Many times. Not even a courtesy reply “Thank you for contacting us.”
My comment to Cornyn would be, “On your visit to wartorn and dangerou$ Ukraine, I see neither you nor any of your travelling companion$ were wearing helmet$ or protective gear for your photo op$. Texans elected you to represent our interests, not a foreign country’$…or your$.
It’s time for you to remember thi$ and return your focu$ to your responsibilitie$ as a $enator from the $tate which put you in office. Whoever run$ against you in your next re-election campaign will have my vote and I’m betting million$ of other$. I hope you under$tand what me$$age I am conveying and will attend to your re$ponsibilitie$ as you $wore to do, Respectfully…”
I sent both of them emails
We can do only this.
I tore into Cruz pretty good, didn’t bother with Cornyn because I wrote him off about a year ago and I knew he would do as Mitch instructed. My question I always ask is How many of the people you supposedly represent would have voted the way you did. From there it got pretty angry. Usually I get a “Thanks for contacting Ted” today nothing.
I wanted to take a moment and thank Sundance, the mods, and all of my fellow Treepers. It seems as if I know many of you as friends and neighbors. This place is like our local coffee shop where we can meet for a chinwag.

Need to turn the “local coffee shop” into a crucible tavern more like Boston’s historic Green Dragon Tavern!!!! IMHO.

2 things I see that are pure nonsense …
1) that anyone talking about the election steal gets this line in any article about them “making unfounded claims about election fraud in 2020” … their claims may be “unproven” (i.e. no court has heard the evidence) but they are simply NOT unfounded claims … there is tons of evidence … its no different than every person charged by a prosecutor … until the trial is over they could be described as “unfounded claims of guilt” based on the way the media treat discussions of the 2020 elections…
2) alot of candidates are described by the powers that be as “unelectable” … I seem to remember EVERY SINGLE Tea Party candidate was labeled as “unelectable” by the GOP establishment …
Does the text of this article really match the headline? “Aside from Trump” and “leaving Trump aside” don’t really mean the same thing.
Elon Musk says ‘a lot of people’ in the Trump administration ‘were effective at getting things done’ – aside from Trump
“The Trump administration, Musk countered, struck him as more effective.
“The Trump administration, leaving Trump aside, there were a lot of people in the administration who were effective at getting things done,” Musk said.
The billionaire did not specify which Trump officials he thought were doing a particularly good job at the time.”

Just got off the phone with a “Republican” survey call that I’m inferring was for Black Rifle Coffee. I enlightened the nice Republican lady regarding what the CEO said about Kyle Rittenhouse supporters, as you may remember:
The Rittenhouse episode may have cost the company thousands of customers, but, Hafer believed, it also allowed Black Rifle to draw a line in the sand. “It’s such a repugnant group of people,” Hafer said. “It’s like the worst of American society, and I got to flush the toilet of some of those people that kind of hijacked portions of the brand.” Then again, what Hafer insisted was a “superclear delineation” was not too clear to everyone, as Munchel’s choice of headgear vividly demonstrated.
“The racism [expletive] really pisses me off,” Hafer said. “I hate racist, Proud Boy-ish people. Like, I’ll pay them to leave my customer base. I would gladly chop all of those people out of my [expletive] customer database and pay them to get the [expletive] out.” [NY Times]
She seemed unaware of this.
The survey was touting all the LEO, military and veteran support BRC was doing.
Besides responding to her that I never watch Faux news, I said I would never buy BRC.
I wasn’t impressed before they made the KR comments.
You can’t make this sh** up!
