2.

7.Biden EO: Stop construction of border wall that was designed to support American sovereignty.





The Declaration of Independence refers to sovereignty in its first sentence: “…necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station…” thus assuming that nations, like individuals, have rights. Having an inviolate border, and determining who may cross it, is the reason for said wall.

Trump kills 16 regulations for every new one, crushing 2-for-1 goal

Most regulations are, in terms of what they are alleged to do, are actually there to be bribed away by the industries that they inhibit.
The pols write them, the corporations pay lobbyists to bribe the pols to insert loopholes....
....hence poor men come to Washington to do good, and leave as millionaires, having made good.
Trump is a threat to the sort of bribery that make Biden rich.



It is the major reason Trump’s economy was so successful but restricted the opportunity for politicians to demand bribes for writing ‘helpful’ regulations. So Biden, the textbook example for bribery, must eliminate the Trump policy.

"Dozens of Dems join GOP to rein in Biden’s ‘far-left,’ inflationary executive orders​

59 Democrats voted with Republicans to rein in Biden's executive orders​

Dozens of House Democrats joined with their Republican colleagues on Wednesday in a vote to require the White House to assess the inflationary effect of President Biden’s executive orders before they are issued.

The bill is the latest effort by Republicans to pump the brakes on Biden administration policies that they say are causing the highest inflation levels seen in decades. But the bill was also supported by 59 Democrats, and easily passed in a 272-148 vote.

Under the bill, any executive order that has an annual budgetary effect of $1 billion or more would have to first be studied by the administration for its possible inflationary effects on the economy, which Republicans say would make Biden think twice about imposing costly new rules on the public."

Dozens of Dems join GOP to rein in Biden's 'far-left,' inflationary executive orders

The House voted Wednesday to require President Biden to assess how major executive orders will affect inflation, in the hopes that those orders would no longer be issued.

It's nearly impossible to stop a presidential war, but this shows signs of promise. But the key is to keep the obvious purpose below the radar so the American people won't be so motivated by the flags of war waving, that they will stop the bill.

It helps a lot! He realizes that people have paid into it their whole lives and deserve to retire. This is a huge advantage to Trump!

What will it take for you to realize that your anti-American posts are just useless. First off, under Donald Trump, the cities were erupting in demonstrations against police violence. That's not happening under Biden. The hospitals are not full to overflowing, and the nation has gone back to work.

You're really big telling us how terrible life is for leftists in "socialist" countries, but I live in one of those socialist countries and we have more money, more freedom, and better infrastructure than the USA. Instead of your usual lies about leftists, why don't you give us examples of well run, safe, large cities which are being run by Republicans. Oh wait - there aren't ANY.

1. I must say that while my heart is in this post, my mind isn't. My experience on this board and in reading the news for years has made me a pessimist about America's future. But still.....the events in Chicago are heartening. the article quoted puts things in perspective for all of us.

2. "Considering 83% of Chicago voters chose someone other than the incumbent, yes, it appears there is a shift happening. I will do further analysis and discuss this in-depth in a future episode of my show. In the meantime, here are the bullet points that explain why Lightfoot’s massive loss offers hope for America’s future.

• Identity Politics Failed: Lori Lightfoot is the epitome of intersectionality. She is a homosexual woman of color. There aren’t a whole lot of other checkboxes she’d have to click to be more of a darling to Democrats. She used her status throughout her term as Mayor and leaned into it further during her campaign. It didn’t work. Are Americans getting sick of electing people based on their status rather than their merits?
• Crime Made the News: Rising violent crime is not something to celebrate, but seeing corporate media acknowledge it from time to time even when it’s not politically expedient for Democrats is fresh. Since the Obama era, corporate media has downplayed crime in major cities because invariably it rises in Democrat-run metros. But the people have been demanding more accurate coverage and local news channels in big cities have been obliging. Is this what it will take to make urban areas more aware of just how bad Democrat policies are?
• It’s the Economic, Stupid: Nearly every city in America is in a worse economic state than they were in the Trump years. This falls mostly on the Biden-Harris regime’s shoulders, but it’s impossible to ignore horrible decisions made by state and local politicians when many red states are fairing much better than their blue counterparts. As bad as things are across the whole country, Chicago has outpaced just about every other city in fiscal ineptitude. If things don’t get much better soon, will this bring more bad news for incumbents in 2024?"

The good news Mayor Lightweight is bye bye. Bad news the demrats are still in charge but maybe the new Mayor won't be as bad. Time will tell.

• Under Trump Iran was kept in a box….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump America had an airbase near both China and Iran….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump our President wasn’t on China’s payroll….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump cartels weren’t free to operate….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump government didn’t favor racism, CRT, gender mutilation….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump we didn’t have confiscatory tax policy….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump we didn’t have a government working with big tech to end free speech….but you voted against that.

A clear and evident lie. But....you do the best with your lack of mentality.


The mob characteristic most gustily exhibited by liberals is the tendency to worship and idolize their political leaders. Le Bon explained that mobs can only grasp the “very simple and very exaggerated.” Their chosen images must be absolute and uncompromising… As Le Bon says, the “primitive” black-and-white emotions of a crowd slip easily into “infatuation for an individual.” Liberals worship so many political deities that they must refer to them by initials, just to save time- FDR, JFK, RFK, MLK, LBJ, and O.J. Ever hear a conservative get weepy about “RWR” or refer to something as hokey as “Camelot”? Passionate adoration are the primitive emotions of a mob, sentiments generally associated with women, children, and savages, according to Le Bon.

No one believes that Trump wasn't worshipped with the cultish praise of a religious leader. Brad Parscale, his campaign manager, called him a “savior” called into service by God. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told Christian Broadcasting Network viewers in 2019 that God “wanted Donald Trump to become president.” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, not normally a supernatural theorist, speculated that Trump had been sent to save Israel from Iran. Trump took to the testimonials with the enthusiasm of a convert. During a 2019 scrum with reporters, he looked to the skies and stated, “I am the chosen one.” Two months later, Secretary of Energy Rick Perry confided that he had informed Trump he was the “chosen one” designated to lead the country. In 2020, Sen. David Perdue of Georgia referred to Trump by calling him “providential.”

Almost every one of your Obama examples you stretched with epic yoga expertise.. "walk on water" coverage? "before and after Obama".... come on. That isn't religious idolatry... The quotes I put up there meant exactly what they said... Donald Trump was somehow a divine incarnation. "God wanted".... "I am the chosen one".... "chosen"... "chosen", over and over.

Youre nuts.
