  • Trump’s Christmas Present to America

    Elon Musk, the man who seems to have more influence in government than some actual politicians, has managed to capture the attention of President Trump and the Republican party. Despite not holding an official government position, Musk has somehow convinced everyone that he can magically find $2 trillion in budget cuts without touching any of the sacred cows like Medicare, Social Security, or the military. It’s truly a mystery where he plans to find this money, but hey, who needs specifics when you have Elon Musk on your side, right?

    Well, isn’t Trump just a ray of sunshine? On Wednesday, he decided to throw a wrench in a perfectly good bipartisan budget deal, potentially leading to a government shutdown after midnight on Saturday. And then, as if that wasn’t enough, he proudly presented a deal with Republicans on Thursday that even Democratic lawmakers and President Joe Biden found utterly unacceptable. Surprise, surprise, it didn’t even come close to passing in the House. And let’s not forget about Trump’s brilliant idea to slap tariffs left and right, which the Congressional Budget Office warned would only end up hurting the economy instead of actually bringing in more revenue to cover his precious tax cuts. Oh, what a genius we have in the White House. Merry Christmas America.

    Trump Was Poised To Inherit A Strong Economy. Then Things Got Rocky And He Added To The Uncertainty

    Here’s what happens if the government shuts down right before the holidays

  • Tulsi Gabbard -will she really for us – the (US) ?

    The controversial 2017 meeting between former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard and Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, as well as her previous statements regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, have come under renewed scrutiny following President-elect Donald Trump’s selection of her to lead America’s intelligence agencies.

    If confirmed as the US Director of National Intelligence (DNI), Gabbard would be entrusted with safeguarding the nation’s most critical secrets, overseeing 18 US intelligence agencies, and serving as a key advisor to the President.

    Can we truly risk the security of America by entrusting it to someone with such a vague stance on their allegiance to our country? It is imperative that we have unwavering loyalty and commitment to America in order to protect and defend our nation. Let us not gamble with the safety and well-being of our citizens by allowing uncertainty to cloud our judgment. The stakes are too high to ignore the importance of absolute dedication to our country.

  • Pardons

    It is important to consider the implications of the incoming Trump administration’s statements regarding their intentions to target individuals in the media, the January 6 committee, and create an enemies list upon taking office.

    If we take them at their word, these pardons would protect individuals who have exercised their first amendment rights and acted in what they believed to be the best interest of America. These individuals may face scrutiny from the new administration, including a potentially biased FBI director, and be at risk of government overreach and prosecution.

    Therefore, pardons for individuals who have not been found guilty of any wrongdoing may be necessary to protect them from unjust persecution. Just as we immunize ourselves against the flu annually, these pardons would serve as a safeguard against the incoming administration’s potential efforts to unfairly target and prosecute individuals. It is crucial for Americans to be aware of these risks and take action to protect their rights.

    Bill Clinton backs president’s pardon of Hunter Biden

  • The Bigger picture – Biden Pardon

    Biden went out of his way to avoid interfering with this prosecution, even though it cost his family a pretty penny. He didn’t remove or alter the Trump-appointed prosecutor handling the case, even when that prosecutor’s investigation was upgraded to special counsel status last year. That was a questionable move in its-self and demanded by republicans!!

    Biden pointed out in his statement announcing the pardon, his son was unfairly targeted and prosecuted. The president rightly pointed out that people aren’t usually hauled into court on felony charges just for messing up a gun form, and those who pay their overdue taxes with interest and penalties due to serious addictions (like Hunter) typically get off with a slap on the wrist. But Hunter was treated differently to smear Biden and sabotage his election campaign, according to the president.

    He’s got a point – but don’t just take my word for it. Trey Gowdy, a former House member and federal prosecutor, said on Fox News that there probably weren’t even ten cases nationwide of addicts or drug users getting prosecuted for possessing firearms or lying on applications. Senator Lindsey Graham also chimed in, saying the average American wouldn’t have been charged for the gun incident. These charges are so minor they wouldn’t have made it to court if Hunter Biden wasn’t, well, Hunter Biden.

    To the republicans criticizing President Biden for this decision, take a step back and look at the bigger picture. A lot has changed since June when he said he wouldn’t pardon Hunter. Trump won the White House, not Biden or Kamala Harris, and the president-elect seems dead set on getting payback, with his nominations hinting at plans to weaponize the FBI and the Justice Department. He’s even talking about axing the current FBI director before his term ends and replacing him with Kash Patel, who’s vowed to “shake things up.” Oh, what a surprise!
