Jul 27, 2021 ~ Charles Cooke, 'We’re Not Going to Fix Our Spending Crisis' "We are told from time to time that we will eventually hit a crisis that will serve to wake us up. But, if anything, the opposite is likely true." Spending is so out of control. But no one will be allowed to stop it.

Oct 27, 2021 ~ John Stossel, 'Lessons from Venezuela' Everything the Democrats want to bring to the US has failed hugely in Venezuela. Hate speech laws, packing the Supreme Court, gun control, printing money leading to inflation and hyperinflation.
Oct 31, 2021 ~ Andrea Widberg, 'Empty Christmas stockings? Don't blame COVID; blame California' CA's excessive climate change regulations created "an inability of half the nation's truckers from picking up anything from the Port of LA or Port of Long Beach." And AB-5 prevents 'owner operator."

Nov 15, 2021 ~ Ryan Mills, "St. Paul Rent-Control Initiative Backfires, Unleashes ‘Chaos’ in Housing Market" All the predictable negative consequences of rent control are happening but Democrats seem surprised since they know no economics or history at all. New building halted, upgrades stopped
Nov 17, 2021 ~ "Inflation is a good thing. The border is not open. Trump colluded with the Russians. Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation. The US is systemically racist. Climate change is an existential threat. Trillion dollar programs cost 0. Voter ID is Jim Crow."-- The Democrats
Nov 26, 2021 ~ Washington Post, "Biden administration pushes to raise rates for oil and gas drilling on public lands and waters, citing climate change." Americans are hurting from high gas prices and Biden is doing everything he can to make it worse. Increase energy costs, reducing supply etc.

Dec 10, 2021 ~ Inflation skyrockets to 6.8%, the fastest rate in 40 years. The Biden Administration, having no idea what causes inflation, is doubling down on the very thing responsible. Spending more trillions of dollars we don't have, expanding the money supply making each dollar worth less.
Dec 19, 2021 ~ #BLM Indy, "When you really start to learn about white supremacy and capitalism and how it really harms black and brown people." "The thing is, not that like everyone doesn’t commit crime, everyone does commit crime. Crime is made up." And allegedly they just enforce against POC.
Dec 20, 2021 ~ Andrea Widburg, 'California’s government is wiping out its pot growers' Predictably, CA Dems have taxed and regulated its legal pot growers out of business driving 75% of sales back to the black market. "California killed the goose that could have laid those golden pot eggs."

Dec 21, 2021 ~ Bette Midler proves she's still a vile person, attacking 1.8M Virginians because Manchin won't vote for unaffordable spending given the inflation already caused by unaffordable spending. "He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out."
Dec 21, 2021 ~ David Harsanyi, 'Elizabeth Warren’s Big Whopper' Senator Karen claims grocery prices are not due to the inflation that is in EVERY sector, but rather because of "profits", "lavish bonuses" etc. This is dishonest and economically ignorant. Grocery profit margins are 2%, some less.
Dec 31, 2021 ~ Philip Klein, "In 2022, Retire the ‘Trust the Scientists’ Platitude" "The problem with 'trust the scientists' is twofold. One is that the so-called experts have often been wrong." The other is "A scientist merely interested in combating a virus" does not balance other concerns.

Feb 13, 2022 ~ Economists criticize Stephanie Kelton's Modern Monetary Theory as essentially junk science. MMT essentially says the government can run up as much debt as it wants and print as much money as it wants with no negative consequences. Those economists are predictably called "sexist."
Mar 6, 2022 ~ Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne are the latest high profile people to flee California. "We are leaving LA. We are a bit sad. But the tax is getting too much." Democrats never learn that by raising taxes super high, they net less money. Their tax base adjusts to avoid including leaving.

Mar 9, 2022 ~ Gas prices hit a record high. The price of gas, and prices in general have been rising for more than a year. The Biden Administration blames the war in Ukraine which started about a week ago. "The Putin spike" they call it. How did that war increase gas prices for 14 months?
Mar 19, 2022 ~ Biden and Europe made themselves dependent on foreign oil to uselessly climate change posture. Europe can't quit Russian energy because they foolishly cut their own supplies. Biden said no more Russian oil but then buys more from Venezuela and Iran. Maduro will buy from Russia.
Mar 20, 2022 ~ Bjorn Lomborg, "This singular obsession with climate change means that we are now going from wasting billions of dollars on ineffective policies to wasting trillions... We’re scaring kids and adults witless, which is not just factually wrong but morally reprehensible."
Mar 31, 2022 ~ John Stossel, 'Renewable Failure' "Countries that embraced renewables are so desperate for power that they eagerly import coal, the worst polluter of all!" Germany stupidly closed all its nuclear plants. Now they are desperate to buy power from Russia. Paying 3X what US pays.

Apr 18, 2022 ~ Fedex Founder Fred Smith, "Had we passed the Build Back Better bill that Biden wanted, my guess is that we would be Weimar Germany right now. We'd have 25% inflation rather 9% or 10%." There were only two sane Democrat Senators left to save the country.
May 8, 2022 ~ John Fund, 'Chicago’s Decline Accelerates as Boeing Abandons It' Under Lori Lightfoot's lack of leadership, Chicago's crime levels have soared and the city has become unlivable. Businesses can't make money or keep their employees safe. The Bears and United Airlines left too.

Jun 26, 2022 ~ Kevin Williamson, 'Here Comes Fiscal Armageddon' "Fiscal Armageddon is what will happen when the U.S. government’s debt load exceeds its ability to comfortably service that debt." Will be spending more to service debt than anything else. Gov't will choose easy option, inflation.
Jul 5, 2022 ~ The Biden Administration is switching from the lie that high gas prices are Putin's fault to blaming gas stations for the price! "Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you’re paying for the product. And do it now," he yells. Economically ignorant.
Jul 5, 2022 ~ Now they are back to blaming Putin for gas prices. When asked how long will this last, Biden said, "As long as it takes, so Russia cannot in fact defeat Ukraine." Biden Advisor Brian Deese added "This is about the future of the Liberal World Order and we have to stand firm."
Jul 5, 2022 ~ Howard Husock, "Does Affirmative Action in Mortgage Lending Really Help Black Americans?" Short answer: No it hurts them and this is how we got the 2008 financial crisis. Lowering all kinds of standards like credit score, down payment, income req's that existed to reduce risk.
Jul 16, 2022 ~ Sen. Manchin, one of 2 sane Democrat Senators, kills the climate change part of BBB bill. He understands it is unaffordable, will fuel inflation and most importantly would do nothing to make the climate any better. The rest of the Dems are apololyptic: “We’re all going to die”
Jul 16, 2022 ~ Stephen Moore, 'How Angela Merkel's Green Agenda Caused the Economic Collapse of Germany' Merkel used to be praised for shutting down nuclear and moving away from fossil fuels toward "green" energy. "Today, the German economy is in tatters." Begging Russia for energy. Rationing.

Jul 16, 2022 ~ Sri Lanka has fallen. Its President had to flee the country. Destroyed via Modern Monetary Theory. Bankrupted themselves with debt and 55% inflation. Got an ESG score of 98 by banning fertilizer and pesticides. Major food shortages. Democrats want to follow right off the cliff.
Jul 17, 2022 ~ Clarice Feldman, "Sri Lanka learned a sad lesson - mandated “organic farming” proved a horrible disaster. Ghana also face starvation and national collapse as a result of green policies... Farmers in the Netherlands are striking in protest of equally unworkable green mandates."
Jul 19, 2022 ~ Max Keating, 'California’s New Pro-Union Law Could Grind The Supply Chain To A Halt' "California truckers are protesting against AB 5, a new regulation that would reclassify them as employees rather than independent contractors." They are killing the independent truckers.
Jul 28, 2022 ~ The US is officially in a recession. 2 consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. The Democrats simply redefine the word 'recession' to avoid admitting it. The #FakeNews plays along. Even Wikipedia changes the definition for them! We live in an Orwellian dystopia at this point.
Jul 29, 2022 ~ David Harsanyi, "The Dems' New Proposal Does Nothing To Lower Inflation" "The bill also dumps another $369 billion into green boondoggles, which also acts as a slush fund for Democrats." Fighting inflation with big spending is like fighting a fire with a flame thrower.
Aug 3, 2022 ~ Victor Davis Hanson, 'Why We Lost Trust in the Expert Class' Good list of fake stories pushed on us by the so called experts. All the countries that destroyed their economy or energy and food security by buying into the Green narrative. Covid lies. Economists, generals, intel ops
