The knuckleheads who maneuvered us into a war with Russia over Ukraine are doubling down like compulsive gamblers. We're going to lose our shirts. asiatimes.com/2024/04/nato-s…

As Biden proposes unprecedented new taxes, it’s worth asking: what do we get for all this money?
Secure borders? No
Safe streets? No
Excellent schools? No
Paying down the debt? No
Just endless wars and money for client regimes which kick back some of it to politicians’ kids.

So what was the $61 billion for?

True. Not even a choice now.

Let’s say you build a business from scratch and qualify for Biden’s new 25% unrealized gains tax. So you have to sell 25% of your business to pay the tax. But now you have to pay 44.6% cap gains + 13.3% CA on that. So you actually have to sell ~37%. Is this right?

Let sleeping dogs lie.

While Congress was considering more aid to Ukraine Biden secretly shipped long range missiles there used to strike deep into Russian territory for the first time

This was kept secret so the dangers of more aid to Ukraine would not be made evident to the US public

One down. Three to go.

What will be the next website or app to be banned under the sweeping censorship powers created by the 'TikTok' bill? Obviously it doesn't end here.

Hodges actually makes a keen observation here: Biden says that the purpose of the funding is to 'keep Ukraine in the fight' not 'to help it win'. Why is this? Because Biden's team knows that any claims about winning would soon be refuted by facts on the ground.

When Biden declared a war on autocracy, who knew that he was talking about Australia and Brazil?

.Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s running mate is growing on me. Evidently she’s more America First than most Republicans.

If the Biden administration wants to ban TikTok, at least make sure it goes into effect before the election so the youth vote can take it into account. Republicans are too dumb to insist on this.

Which Democrat donor will benefit the most when TikTok is banned? Just wondering.

If you vote to send our money abroad while waving a foreign flag, you’ll be called an American patriot.

If you vote to keep our money at home to fund domestic priorities like the border, you’ll be called a foreign agent.

Bizarro world.

Based on some simple math, the new funding bill that’s being widely hailed as saving Ukraine will buy precisely half of a Summer Counteroffensive.
