Voting Republican this term may end up changing the US Constitution to help the Far Right ideas

When we see inflation continue to fall when spending on the $1.2 Trillion Infrastructure Bill providing New Roads, Electric School Buses And More is just getting started will you admit you are wrong?

When pigs are routinely seen flying, will you admit that they have wings?

Doofus, spending doesn't cause inflation to fall. What a maroon.

tl/dr

Opposition to abortion rights is absolutely and fundamentally based on white Christian nationalism and has absolutely nothing to do with DNA science or any science as a matter of fact.

Inflation is falling right now and the big infrastructure spending is just getting started. That’s just a reality.

Why in hell does it matter if it didn’t ever happen before in the context of this discussion if there are indications that MAGA Trump Republicans are threatening to extort concessions out of Biden by threatening not to raise the debt ceiling.

The US will not default, you and your emotional BS is just pure emotion based on fear. Thanks.

Young Americans are not afraid of black and Gay Americans like Trump’s MAGA Republicans are.

Who is afraid of blacks and gays? Got any backup for that bullshit?

Tim Scott, Clarence Thomas, John James, Burgess Owens, Ben Carson, and Herman Cain are/were Democrats?

Democrats have failed to elect any blacks to the presidency as Obama was mixed race and if Brandon gets sidelined, Kamala is also.

I know plenty of Buddhists who are against abortion.

And Muslims who are against abortion.

You must be one of those LYING leftards regurgitating the bullshit from the DNC.

Trump No it is not it.

NFBW: Yes it is. Inflation had peaked - “personal income and expenditures both outpaced inflation in September, gaining 0.4% and 0.6%, respectively, which lends credence to the belief that inflation has peaked.”

MANHATTAN (CN) — Investors rallied late in the week, capping a fourth consecutive week of gains, erasing much of the summer’s losses and nearly reaching the highs from May.​

​

GDP and inflation data stave off recession talk, boosting Wall Street’s rebound

The last two weeks have marked a surprising turnaround, despite poor outings by tech companies recently, allowing investors to recoup most losses from the past few months.

www.courthousenews.com

​

The gains are likely due to a pair of positive economic releases on inflation and growth that suggest the United States was never in a recession earlier this year and that prices are likely to come down soon.​

​

Investors were cheered on Friday by data from showing that personal income and expenditures both outpaced inflation in September, gaining 0.4% and 0.6%, respectively, which lends credence to the belief that inflation has peaked.​

​

This marks the second consecutive month that real consumer spending has increased — though the savings rate fell from August — with analysts guessing consumers are tapping into savings and credit to buy their goods and services. While the price of goods still outpace income from a year ago, prices have fallen for the third month in a row.​

​

On the heels of the reports, markets continued their move in a positive direction, the Dow Jones Industrial Average met the closing bell 1,779 points up since last Friday, and the S&P 500 gained 149 points over that same time frame. The Nasdaq, which has been plagued by earnings woes among its tech-heavy listings, gained 243 points since last Friday.​

​

The PCE release wasn’t the only one that helped motivate the bulls this week. On Thursday, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that gross domestic product gained 0.6% in the third quarter for 2.6% annualized, reversing the negative trend from the prior two quarters and dissipating talk of a recession. The better-than-expected gains were driven mostly by a resilient consumer sector, experts say, as did the narrowing trade deficit.​

Not all Republicans are white Christian nationalists.

That's just stupid leftard propaganda.

Go ask Mayra Flores if she supports abortion. She's not white, and not a nationalist.

Go ask Clarence Thomas if he supports abortion. He's not white, and I don't know if he's a Christian but I hope he's a nationalist

Much of the income is dark money, with the origins hidden. CMD has managed to identify some key donors – among them the Mercer Family Foundation set up by reclusive hedge fund manager Robert Mercer, and a couple of groups run by Leonard Leo, the mastermind behind the rightwing land grab in the federal courts.

More than $1m (£880,265) has also been donated in the form of Bitcoin.

The attraction to these groups and donors of pursuing a states route to rewriting the US constitution is easily explained. Over the past 12 years, since the eruption of the Tea Party in 2010, Republican activists have deployed extreme partisan gerrymandering to pull off an extraordinary takeover of state legislatures.

Bannon is not finished: his ‘precinct strategy’ could alter US elections for years

In 2010, Republicans controlled both chambers of just 14 state legislatures. Today, that number stands at 31.

“Republicans are near the high watermark in terms of their political control in the states, and that’s why the pro-Trump rightwing of the party is increasingly embracing the constitutional convention strategy,” said Arn Pearson, CMD’s executive director.

Should a convention be achieved, the plan would be to give states one vote each. There is no legal or historical basis for such an arrangement but its appeal is self-evident.

By taking over state legislatures, Republicans hope to pass conservative amendments that cannot be electorally challenged

-----------------------
This is serious. The Far Right are basically religious extremists and others with extremists views to change the politics of the US to the way they want it, keeping all other Parties from possibly ever achieving the passing of Human and Civil Rights or the Presidency again.

Voting for the Republicans thinking they will improve people's economy, etc, is only giving them the tools to achieve all of their goals.


Voting in 2022, and possibly in 2024, for economic reasons only, is not the way the voters will hopefully go.


Without our Human and Civil Rights in place by law, the economic costs do become higher to most people who cannot afford paying certain health issues, etc. Discriminations of all kinds, Racism, Homophobia, and many other forms only grow.
----------------------------------------------
Since Trump took office in January 2017, his administration has worked aggressively to turn back the clock on our nation’s civil and human rights progress. Here’s how.

------------------------------------------------

Do the proper research. There is still time before November 8.

Please, do not vote only based on economy, inflation and crime, which Republicans are allegedly said to be good at. Think about where voting Republican could possibly lead this country into in a few years.

There are a lot of Billionaires and others who want the Republicans in power, so that they will continue to do what they are used to doing, which is not care about the population, about climate change, people's health, voting rights, etc.

Republicans want an end to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid. Can anyone afford to not have any of those if they need it, as the first two they receive them by right after a certain age?

Republicans, the PARTY which TAKES, and TAKES AWAY from the population. And give mostly to those who already have a lot of everything.

Think, before voting. Thank you.

How many false theories ya GOT in that one Opost? First of all -- ANY kind of Constitutional convention needs approval of the people. All the DARK BITCOIN in the world doesnt change that.
AND -- maybe a COUPLE THOUSAND "right-wingers" even KNOW about efforts to convene a convention. Looks to me -- IF THE STORY IS REAL -- that a lot of money is being WASTED HERE.

And in REALITY -- The DEMS are FAR FURTHER down the road of creating "One Party" government. The upcoming elections might slow them a BIT -- but whole West Coast and parts of NorthEast are ALREADY damn purified ONE PARTY RULE.

Neither corrupt, inept, dishonest party is gonna pull that off NATIONALLY -- anytime in our lives.

Catholic Hispanics are also opposed to abortion.

NFBW: I am opposed to abortion in my personal beliefs but I agree with 56% of Catholic women who are pro choice according to PEW

Catholic women are a bit more likely than Catholic men to say abortion should be legal in all or most cases (60% vs. 53%), and they are also more likely to say the decision about whether to have an abortion should belong solely to the pregnant woman. More than half of Catholic women (56%) say this view describes them extremely well or very well, compared with 41% of Catholic men.​

​

Like Americans overall, Catholics vary in their abortion views, with regular Mass attenders most opposed

About three-quarters of U.S. Catholics (76%) say abortion should be illegal in some cases but legal in others.

www.pewresearch.org

And there is this;

The Vatican has warned U.S. bishops not to deny President Joe Biden communion for his support for abortion, and a new poll shows most Catholics favor the president being given communion despite his support of abortion rights.​

​

A majority of Catholics told the Pew Research Center poll in March that Biden should be permitted to receive communion at Mass — a topic that is resurfacing this week as Biden is set to meet with Pope Francis this week on his trip to Europe.​

​

The Pew Research Center issued a fact sheet Wednesday on Catholics, the pope and Biden before the trip.​

​

https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/pew-research-center-catholics/2021/10/27/id/1042274/​

​

It showed a political divide on the issue of communion. While just 29% of Catholics polled said Biden should not receive communion for his policies and support for abortion, a majority of Catholics who are Republican (55%) say Biden's abortion stance should disqualify him from receiving communion.​

​

Just 11% of Catholic Democrats said the same, while an overwhelming majority of 87% said Biden should be given communion, according to the poll.​

​

Regardless of public opinion, the political debate on who can receive communion has raged on, even if the Vatican has cleared Biden from being blocked from communion by restrictive bishops.​

​

The Pew Research Center polled 12,055 U.S. adults March 1-7.​

Women's rights? What rights should women have?

What GOOD are "women's rights" if most WOKE Leftist Democrats CANT DEFINE what a women IS ????

Biden just put a woman on the SUpreme Court that COULD NOT ANSWER that simple question in her nomination hearing. You're spewing UNFOUNDED generalities here and COMPLETELY MISSING the "in your face" attempts to REDEFINE everything in society/culture/language/politics/law/justice from the left.

THERE's your "Threat to Democracy". All that is gonna change in about 2 weeks. Repub party hasn't change much in 50 years, but long-time Dems cant even RECOGNIZE their party anymore.

Get a clue. Define a woman. WITHOUT getting cancelled by the nutcase mob.

Trump The DEMS are FAR FURTHER down the road of creating "One Party" government.

NFBW: The Dems have a majority of voters but concede elections when they lose. Not so Republicans who continue to spew Trump’s one term loser’s Big Lie that he won a second term? Trump attempted on Jan6 to enact the unconstitutional Eastman coup memo? But when that failed and the vicious Confederate assault on the Capitol began, he did nothing to stop his supporters that he lured on the BIG LIE hook to come to DC enmasse to “stop the steal” or else watch AMERICA BE DESTROYED by liberals,

What do you think Confederates are going to do when a sore loser outgoing president tells his cult that they are going to lose their country unless they stop the thief from being inaugurated on JAN6 - the last chance.

Repub party hasn't change much in 50 years,

NFBW: It went from conservative to white Christian nationalistic authoritarianism under Trump. Read Mashmont ‘s Christian Nation posts. The change is humongous for the worse. Just ask Liz Cheney of the now defunct conservative foundation of the Republican Party. Or hear Mitch McConnell tell it like it is but not have the balls to do something when he had the chance.

MITCH nails it about 16 paragraphs down when he says “this was different”. Never would a Senate Majority Leader be forced to say what Mitch had to say about Trump, There is no precedence and no justification for what Trump did after losing a fair and honest election, Trump changed the Republican Party to a Party of shame.

Read his remarks below provided by McConnell's office, as prepared for delivery:​

​

https://www.weny.com/story/43345631...n-the-senate-floor-following-trumps-acquittal​

​

"January 6th was a disgrace.​

​

"American citizens attacked their own government. They used terrorism to try to stop a specific piece of democratic business they did not like​

​

"Fellow Americans beat and bloodied our own police. They stormed the Senate floor. They tried to hunt down the Speaker of the House. They built a gallows and chanted about murdering the Vice President.​

​

"They did this because they had been fed wild falsehoods by the most powerful man on Earth — because he was angry he'd lost an election.​

​

"Former President Trump's actions preceding the riot were a disgraceful dereliction of duty.​

​

"The House accused the former President of, quote, 'incitement.' That is a specific term from the criminal law.​

​

"Let me put that to the side for one moment and reiterate something I said weeks ago: There is no question that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of that day.​

​

"The people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their President.​

​

"And their having that belief was a foreseeable consequence of the growing crescendo of false statements, conspiracy theories, and reckless hyperbole which the defeated President kept shouting into the largest megaphone on planet Earth.​

​

"The issue is not only the President's intemperate language on January 6th.​

​

"It is not just his endorsement of remarks in which an associate urged 'trial by combat.'​

​

"It was also the entire manufactured atmosphere of looming catastrophe; the increasingly wild myths about a reverse landslide election that was being stolen in some secret coup by our now-President.​

​

"I defended the President's right to bring any complaints to our legal system. The legal system spoke. The Electoral College spoke. As I stood up and said clearly at the time, the election was settled.​

​

"But that reality just opened a new chapter of even wilder and more unfounded claims.​

​

"The leader of the free world cannot spend weeks thundering that shadowy forces are stealing our country and then feign surprise when people believe him and do reckless things.​

​

"Sadly, many politicians sometimes make overheated comments or use metaphors that unhinged listeners might take literally.​

​

"This was different.​

"This was an intensifying crescendo of conspiracy theories, orchestrated by an outgoing president who seemed determined to either overturn the voters' decision or else torch our institutions on the way out.​

​

"The unconscionable behavior did not end when the violence began.​

​

"Whatever our ex-President claims he thought might happen that day... whatever reaction he says he meant to produce... by that afternoon, he was watching the same live television as the rest of the world.​

​

"A mob was assaulting the Capitol in his name. These criminals were carrying his banners, hanging his flags, and screaming their loyalty to him.​

​

"It was obvious that only President Trump could end this.​

​

"Former aides publicly begged him to do so. Loyal allies frantically called the Administration.​

​

"But the President did not act swiftly. He did not do his job. He didn't take steps so federal law could be faithfully executed, and order restored.​

​

"Instead, according to public reports, he watched television happily as the chaos unfolded. He kept pressing his scheme to overturn the election!​

​

"Even after it was clear to any reasonable observer that Vice President Pence was in danger... even as the mob carrying Trump banners was beating cops and breaching perimeters... the President sent a further tweet attacking his Vice President.​

​

"Predictably and foreseeably under the circumstances, members of the mob seemed to interpret this as further inspiration to lawlessness and violence.​

​

"Later, even when the President did halfheartedly begin calling for peace, he did not call right away for the riot to end. He did not tell the mob to depart until even later.​

​

"And even then, with police officers bleeding and broken glass covering Capitol floors, he kept repeating election lies and praising the criminals.​

​

"In recent weeks, our ex-President's associates have tried to use the 74 million Americans who voted to re-elect him as a kind of human shield against criticism.​

​

"Anyone who decries his awful behavior is accused of insulting millions of voters.​

​

"That is an absurd deflection.​

​

"74 million Americans did not invade the Capitol. Several hundred rioters did.​

​

"And 74 million Americans did not engineer the campaign of disinformation and rage that provoked it.​

​

"One person did.​

​

"I have made my view of this episode very plain.​

Now tell me nothing changed when
Trump took over more as a cult leader and mob boss.

Republican Congress will help bring it down faster

NFBW: You have no way to forecast that.

Private investment in housing is way down - Supply is low and demand is high - home buying inflation has nothing to do with the trillions Dems are spending on infrastructure that is just now starting to be absorbed into the economy. This combination of economic factors and pressures have never existed before - you do not have the history to back up such a claim. You are speculating and may lose which may cause more harm than good for working class folks. Do you not count black working class voters who want a bigger Dem Senate in order to protect voting rights from BIG LIE Republicans who want to make it more difficult for black folks to vote - or just cancel their votes like Trump wanted Pence to do.

And you have no way to forecast that it won’t I have a historical track record of Clinton and Obama and the Republican Congress controlling spending. I’m not just worried about inflation, I am worried about spending, we keep going further into debt and there is no sanity.

Historically, you know what has been proven in the past when the President and Congress are the same, debt increases faster than if we have a President of one party and a Congress is another. Democrats wanted over $6 trillion in spending last December at a time when it would have hurt the economy. If the President was a Republican, I want a Congress that is ran by the Democrats. Nothing you have said or shown will change my mind, all you have is fear tactics and emotional BS.

I believe in our Constitution and it is strong enough that it will with stand the test of time. I believe the check and balances in the Constitution will prevail.

Going further into debt will be much worse for working Americans than anything else, we need to raise taxes and cut spending drastically and neither party is wanting to do that, so have both parties in power, that should help offset the madness
