What If?
Timothy Birdnow
I guess the author doesn't know they just filed articles of impeachment against Trump - again.
He goes through the different scenarios of the upcoming elections and none of them are good. At best we'll keep the same majorities we've had and the same lawfare and RINO tail-dragging will continue. The Senate will remain a do-nothing body to prevent Trump from making real, needed reforms.
Mike McDaniel does a pretty good job of analyzing the possible outcomes. I think he may be a bit too negative but then I fear when SCOTUS stopped Trump on birthright citizenship they guaranteed the Dems will pick up seats that they have no right to and this will keep the balance of power in place - at the expense of America, which needs a strong Republican majority to move legislation so the Donkeys can't roll it back. America's very survival is at stake.

Foul Mouthed Thom Tillis, Later Alligator!
Timothy Birdnow
We are well shed of Thom Tillis.
FTA:
Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) privately tore into President Donald Trump this summer in a pair of extraordinary text messages published on Friday, telling the president he does not take "bullsh*t” from anyone and saying he would have told the president to "f*ck yourself” had Trump personally threatened him with a primary challenge.
Interesting; he quit the day after saying he would tell Mr. Trump to go copulate with himself. And he said he didn't take bull from anyone when Trump called him a quitter.
Man, we are lucky to be getting this guy out of there.

The Karens of Housing
Timothy Birdnow
Yep.
Between zoning laws, environmental laws, labor unions, and a host of other, easily avoidable things, housing prices have gone up through the roof. Every extra layer adds to the cost.
And millions of illegal aliens who need to be housed do likewise.
From the article:
After tentative steps by local governments early in the century, the Court’s decision in Euclid v. Ambler Realty Co. unleashed state and local governments to manage people’s use of their own property for whatever states considered to be the public good. Zoning subsequently expanded into an enormous thicket of laws and regulations specifying what people can and cannot build on their property.
The consequences have been momentous. Zoning has raised the cost of housing significantly, especially by discouraging the construction of starter homes, leading to a housing supply gap of more than 4 million homes in 2025, according to Realtor.com.
Zoning and other regulatory requirements are the major limitation on housing construction, a new paper from the American Enterprise Institute concluded. "In many markets policy-induced costs and local feasibility barriers act as the primary constraint on new housing production and are more binding than capital availability alone,” the paper said.
A study by the Cato Institute found that "rising land-use regulation is associated with rising real average home prices in 44 states and that rising zoning regulation is associated with rising real average home prices in 36 states. In general, the states that have increased the amount of rules and restrictions on land use the most have higher housing prices.”
Land-use regulations directed toward "focusing density and redevelopment” in urban areas, to prevent expansion of cities into surrounding regions — also known as "urban sprawl” — represent perhaps the most ambitious form of zoning.
The regulations drive up housing prices far beyond their costs in less-regulated places, greatly suppress economic development, and increase urban poverty, noted demographer Wendell Cox.
I worked in real estate for twenty years and can testify to this. EVERYTHING is regulated, or forbidden. You can't make a move without government breathing down your necks. And you have to pay every step of the way. That cost is passed along - part of doing business.
There are special building courts whose sole reason for existing is to adjudicate code violations. I know; I've sat in them enough over the years. (Usually they are not unpleasant; the judge is usually polite to us because it's just business after all. And even when the judge was angry at an owner he usually didn't take it out on the realtors, although one time the judge locked up one of my co-workers in a fit of pique because the owner didn't do what he was ordered to do. My boss had to come with two hundred dollars to bail him out!)
The problem is private property was never enumerated in the Constitution because the framers thought that unnecessary; it is the cornerstone of all our other rights. And the Constitution specifically states in the Ninth Amendment that the enumerated rights were not the only rights reserved to the People; any power not EXPRESSLY granted by the Constitution was reserved to the People.
I wrote this back in 2005 explaining the sacred nature of property.
But the Progressive era saw the rise in the nanny state and courts simply usurped powers for government that were never intended to belong to them.
A while back a man who had bought a very old house in Florissant's Old Town District went to jail Florissant is a suburb of St. Louis, and for a while was the fourth largest city in the state. This man bought the house and wanted to paint it a tasteful color, which he did. The city came down on him like a ton of bricks, ordering him to repaint the house because the color he chose violated the building code for the district. (He painted it a pastel blue, if I remember, which was apparently a mortal sin.) They actually put this guy in jail for refusing to comply with the order. Then these communities wonder why people leave and they eventually have a bunch of abandoned buildings.
We don't have a housing crisis; we have a government overreach crisis. There are all sorts of abandoned buildings around (especially in St. Louis) that could be rehabbed if there wasn't so much strangulating red tape.
But we are told there is a housing crisis. I seem to remember Barney Frank (Democrat) pushing legislation for "affordable housing" (say it with spittle shooting from your mouth as did the Hon. Frank) and yet here we are, decades after he and his buddies "fixed" the problem, struggling with the same issue.
That's because governments don't fix problems, people do. Government needs to get out of the way and let the People fix the problem themselves.
I get basic safety standards; that is reasonable. But so much of what you have with so many of the building codes (and worse, overzealous inspectors) is simply ridiculous. It's happened on many occasions where the inspectors did not apply the code but actually a higher standard, one they thought better despite what the law said. And the inspector is a god inside a building; his will be done! It is very, very hard to get one overruled and it will cost you.
So affordable housing is a victim of nanny regulations and Karen approval.

Last Days?
Timothy Birdnow
Coming to a city near you!
From End of the American Dream:
A nuclear war is not going to start because everyone agrees that they want one to happen. Rather, a nuclear war will start because someone decides that the next escalation will still be manageable. At this moment leaders all over the world are engaged in a very foolish game of brinksmanship. They are all calculating how close to the edge they can go without falling over. In such an environment, it will only take one very stupid mistake to set off a chain of events that nobody will be able to control. We are now closer to nuclear war than we have ever been in our entire history, and that is a very dangerous place to be.
Most Americans do not realize that a military conflict between Russia and our allies in Europe could literally erupt at any time, and recently there have been some very alarming incidents…
He's right; we are closer than we've ever been, closer than the Cuban Missile Crisis, in fact. And hardly anybody understands that.
I am no expert on a lot of things, but I know the Russian mind, the Russian character. I studied Russian history in college, as well as the Russian language. I have a certificate in Russia scientific translation and fell just one class short of majoring in Russian and Eastern Area Studies (the prof went on a year sabbatical for the class I needed, the Philosophy of Marxism/Leninism). I was going to work in national security but the Cold War unkindly ended just after I got out of college and that was that.
And I know the Russians are terrified of being encircled. It's deep in their psyche; they have to have a buffer between them and a potential enemy, particularly Germany as the Germans have invaded them on a number of occasions going all the way back to the Battle on the Ice in 1242 where Prince Alexander defeated the invading Teutonic Knights on the frozen Neva river (the Russians had called to Europe for help and the Germans sent troops in not to aid the Russians but to pluck her clean). Nato has systematically expanded into their buffer zone, and Russia is encircled by enemies now. The attempt to pull the Ukraine into the Western orbit was a bridge too far for the average Russian (yes, Putin wants to rebuild the old empire, but the average guy sees this as necessary to defend their homeland). And now Germany is talking about sending in troops, and Poland has gone on alert. What are the Russians supposed to think? They still have the largest and newest nuclear arsenal in the world, And since their manpower is being exhausted by this war they can't defend the rest of the country. But they have the great equalizer.
The Europeans are children playing with fire. Juvenilized by three quarters of a century of American supervision they now are trying to assert themselves but have absolutely no idea of how to go about it. They are wild cards who could push this thing spiraling out of control.
Putin, who will not go down without a fight, warned:
"We must understand that the moment when nothing can be changed can come very quickly and unexpectedly for everyone. The logic of escalation and increasingly harsh retaliatory measures is leading to a fatal point of no return,”
That could well come. Drunk on the success of post-Cold War Europe, the Europeans do not understand the nature of what they are trying to unleash. This could lead to the Big One, Doomsday, Ragnarök.
I for one don't want to die because Europeans are too juvenile and stupid to not understand Russia isn't any Third World country they can kick around. It no loner has the military force to fight an extended war, meaning it will have to unleash nuclear weapons.
Putin would do it too. I've studied him for years and am certain he will do whatever it takes.
Putin specifically mentioned Kaliningrad. What is interesting about that is there has been some talk of taking or isolating Kaliningrad and Putin is warning that if NATO does that it will be considered an act of war and Russia will retaliate. Since Russia can't beat NATO with conventional weapons...
Kaliningrad is on the Baltic sea between Lithuania and Poland. It is Russia's port on the Baltic and home to the Russia Baltic fleet. It could easily be cut off by NATO members Poland and Lithuania. I suspect if they try it Warsaw and Vilnius will wind up smoking ruins.
And if that happens NATO nuclear powers will be forced to retaliate. Then all the birds could fly.
We are in great peril right now. Most of the population in the West have forgotten the danger and are dancing as the Titanic is sinking.

Repubs Trying to Throw the Election
Timothy Birdnow
The Empire Strikes Back:
That is exactly what is happening and why John Thune refused to move legislation. He wants Trump neutered but didn't want to openly oppose him, so he slow-walked legislation knowing the public would tire of a do-nothing Congress.

Burning America
Increasingly America looks like it did between 1854-60. Remember Burning Kansas? John Brown? Jayhawks and Bushwhackers? We are reliving it now.

The Cornell "Rape"
Timothy Birdnow
Here is the true story of what happened in the "Cornell rape". This is utterly shocking; the woman was an entire whore and nobody ever forced her. She had an orgy with multiple men and even took drugs off a man's penis. She simply made these accusations TWO YEARS LATER.
This is really shocking. And even the President of Cornell University knew it was B.S.
That said these guys in the frat are some sick, twisted dudes and this is what you get when you gangbang a college girl, no matter how whorish she may be.
The problem is and remains that women DO lie about this stuff, and often. I thought we'd moved past this sexual terrorism by feminists. But nothing ever goes away in the halls of liberalism or academia and apparently they are trying to revive the old policy of "J'Accuse!" where the men are always guilty, even if they prove their innocence. They carry a blood debt just for having a Y chromosome.
Guess we'll have to fight this battle all over.
Anyway those boys had best get checked out for venereal diseases. Who knows what this skank was carrying. Or the other boys passed along.

Orgies aren't Forever
Timothy Birdnow
Encouraging news!
FTA:
While the report only highlights a cross-section of issues the CDC considers statistically significant, San Diego State University psychology professor Jean Twenge reviewed the full data available through the CDC’s data system and found that "younger teens are now much less likely to say they are lesbian, gay, or bisexual.”
Sixteen percent of 17-18 year olds identified as "LGB” (lesbian, gay, or bisexual), which was the highest amount for any subset of teens but a two-point drop from 2023. All younger groups were smaller and showed a bigger drop, with the most significant being 14-15 year olds, 17 percent of whom identified as LGBT in 2023 down to 11 percent in 2025.
So, despite an endless drumbeat of propaganda, being on the light-in-the-loafers spectrum is less appealing to the younger kids. It was painted as "cool" to be gay/bi/trans to kids but fads are fads and they eventually burn out. The young no longer find they get all sorts of positive attention from claiming to be in this category. That is why we saw such a big increase in the first place; not because those who were afraid were finally coming out but rather because it became the hip thing to do and kids who did found they were celebrated. Now not so much; it's old hat.
I suspect that this will drop off even more in the years to come. It was rebellious and culturally approved but now it's just what old people do. The real rebellion is to be straight, sensible, and even chaste.
Oh, I have a niece in her thirties now who calls herself pansexual even though she has no interest in anything but men. Why does she call herself that? Because it was the cool thing to do. It gave her status.
Orgies aren't forever. Neither are any of these other sexual fads.

I am Legend
Timothy Birdnow
I agree.
Stephen Hawking was very smart, of that there is no question. And his disability helped him; he admitted as much, saying he got dragged about to parties and dinners and since he couldn't so much as move his head he had nothing to do but think, so he usually was working when he was out and about.
Hawking was a great promoter of science and his books were to make the general public understand some very complicated issues in science. It was that that made his fame, not his research, which was never that important to the field of Cosmology. Hawking DID divine what is now known as "Hawking Radiation" emitted by black holes which eventually whittled down the enormous vacuum cleaners. But it wasn't enough to earn him a Nobel, and most people in his field thought of him as a competent but rather plodding scientist.
It was his story that made him such a cultural phenomenon. Stuck in a chair with a monotone computer voice (which he generated by blowing in a tube to move a curser on his computer) Hawking had a mysterious quality that is reminiscent of something out of a Greek myth. He was the Old Man on the Mountain, speaking mysterious things with a mysterious voice. This appealed to the public by touching on ancient impulses. He was like the Oracle of Delphi, giving answers that were indecipherable. Hawking had an unworldly feel about him, being trapped inside of his own body as he was, as if he could see a higher reality.
He was a legend. A good legend, certainly, but a legend.
That's not to take anything away from him. I couldn't do anything he did, nor would I have had the strength to face life that way. I'd have given up. It's an inspiring story, no question.
The author also mentions Helen Keller as someone whose legend is bigger than their lives and he's right. I would add Mother Theresa of Calcutta to that list. Mother Theresa is a saint in the Catholic Church (meaning she is known to be in Heaven and not in Purgatory or that other place) and she was indeed a holy and pius and good woman. No question. But there were other nuns, or priests, or even lay people who did as much as did she and were just as holy but for whatever reason Mother Theresa got the good press. She ran with it because it brought in money to help her in her hospice ministry, but she probably didn't care much for the fame. Still, she was feted for the wrong reasons, frankly. She was to many a trendy symbol, a kind of virtue signaling for liberals. She should have been applauded for her deep love of God and faith in God, which is not what we saw. It was her accomplishments that got her all the fame.
This is a common human attribute. Look at the legends surrounding Daniel Boone, or Davey Crocket, or the Old West folks like Wyatt Earp or Wild Bill Hickock or Jesse James (why did Jesse get all the good press when his brother Frank probably was the brains and he had the Youngers as partners? It was because Jesse was a kid and had been forced to spend his whole life as a raider since the Union army refused to accept his surrender.) Washington and Lincoln are both myths and not just men now. Kennedy too. So is Teddy Roosevelt and FDR. Human beings need myths and legends and when they don't have any they make them. In the South during the Civil War Robert E. Lee attained godlike status among most Southerners, even though he never sought that and in fact had his own flaws.
Humans are mythmakers because we want to believe in a higher power but so few want to believe in God the Father or Jesus Christ. So we are always making heroes, and often gods, out of people, be they ordinary or extraordinary (as was Stephen Hawking).
And we expect wisdom from our heroes, whether they are wise or not (many are smart but few on Earth are actually wise - there is a difference). Hawking was smart, but you could not call him wise. He rejected God before he died, for example, and THAT is most unwise indeed. I can understand the temptation; God had done something very hard to accept to him. But when you know you are leaving this world wisdom would suggest you hedge your bets. Hawking didn't and he died not long after coming out as an atheist.
I suspect that's why he lived so long in that state in the first place; he had to make up his mind but couldn't. When he finally did he was gone.
At any rate I agree with this essay. Hawking was a man and the adulation he received in his life says more about us as a people than about him or his accomplishments. I would also add that this is the thing that turns an ordinary man like Caesar into a demigod. It's a dangerous impulse, even if it is a very natural one and beneficial to a degree. We transmit our culture through our legends and heroes. But when we deify our leaders there is real danger. Look at Obama, who used Greek columns and put reverb in his speech to make him look godlike. His people were trying to make him into a Legend. Thank God THAT failed!
BTW being a legend isn't all it's cracked up to be. Yes, you get acclaim and applause, but it's not YOU they are cheering but a fictional character with your name and appearance. Even when you die it's not you who is being celebrated but this other fellow, one you never knew. Better to be beloved for you and what you did yourself and not what some people say about you.

The All Amazon Death Squad
Timothy Birdnow
Never send a woman to do a man's job...
Betsy from Pike is the first woman to be executed in Tennessee in ages and they give her an all-female team to carry out sentence. Given how it's always women who are protesting executions, and marrying serial killers and the like, one has to wonder if the Rasputin-like Pike, who survived not one but TWO lethal injections, wasn't saved by her own execution squad.
Certainly this smells to high heaven.
Pike was convicted and placed on death row for the torture and brutal slaying of a romantic rival, a girl whom Pike suspected of pursuing her boyfriend. She was sentenced to death, lost all her appeals, and sent for lethal injection. Somebody screwed it up. She's still alive after two doses of the euthanizing agent.
This chick squad needs to be brought in and grilled, and the needles inspected (I'm sure they could find enough left of the drug to see what was in those needles; I suspect someone purposely watered them down.)
Anyway Tennessee has death by firing squad and that is a more sure way to do this. Bullets can't be watered down. If all the firing squad misses then we have a problem.
Let's hope they have some men who know how to use those guns on the line.
BTW the Angel of Death, who passed over the Israelites in Egypt, was named Azrael. He was a rather fearsome angel, who was known to do his job with zero pity. Human executioners are not so good at their job as Azrael, but men will at least do it. Women are nurturers by nature and don't want to take a life. It's ridiculous we put women in this role.

State Election Board Asks Trump for Help against Dominion Voting Machines
Timothy Birdnow
Raffensasperger is trying to steal the state of Georgia for the Democrats again.
The GOP needs to kick this Raffensperger creep out of the party. He has done nothing as Secretary of State but sabotage Republicans since he apparently hates Donald Trump.
We need to take action now against anything that may tamper with the vote, and we now know the Dominion machines did just that.
The Democrats are always talking about democracy yet they are fine with vote theft

Biden Judge Nullifies Federal Immigration Law
Timothy Birdnow
WTF!
Yes, judge David Leibowitz of Florida ruled that the prosecution of a Jamaican illegal immigrant for voting is illegal because voting is generally reserved to the states so, apparently, the Feds have no say, even though the woman is not a legal resident of the United States, much less a citizen, and has no right to either vote or even be here.
The Jamaican, Chelsea Cox, came her on a tourist visa and never left. She didn't bother applying for a green card.
The Biden judge declared the law under which she was prosecuted unconstitutional.
She voted in the 2012 and 2020 elections by using her Florida driver's license which she obtained by getting a fraudulent Virgin Islands birth certificate.
The whole reason she was prosecuted under the Federal statute and not a state statute is because the Feds have long demanded the states not implement their own illegal alien laws but rely on Federal statutes and Federal enforcement. Obama sued Arizona for making Federal immigration laws state laws, for instance. and he won.
So this creep comes along a nd rules federal law unconstitutional knowing full well states cannot do this themselves. Cute trick.
We have GOT to find a way to rein in these jerks, punish them when they overstep their authority (which this guy just did). I think we need to build an army of lawyers and private investigators and start digging into guys like this. They would do it to our guys.
This judge seems to think he's John C. Calhoun and can nullify any laws he doesn't like.

Groovy Economic News
Timothy Birdnow
Groovy news; There are more Americans working now than at any time since 1969!
Yes, since the time of the moon landing, Woodstock, the birth of the internet aka ARPANET, and apparently the first and only time singer Bryan Adams got laid (well, what do you expect; he's Canadian after all).
Dig this. From the far out article:
Unemployment claims in the U.S. remain at historic lows, with numbers last seen in 1969, when the country’s population was over 140 million less.
The news is just the latest proof that President Donald Trump and the Republicans have the country on the right economic course, and Americans should reject the Democrats’ big-government proposals at the ballot box in November.
The Department of Labor reported Thursday that initial claims came in at 197,000 for the week ending Sept. 26, a decrease of 1,000 from the previous week. The four-week average fell to 200,000, down from 202,500.
Now it comes down to a matter of perception. We've seen this show before, where the media convinces the public that times are hard when in fact they are quite good. They did this to George H.W. Bush, predicting a recession when the economy was riding high, artificially manufacturing one by simply insisting it was coming, then ignoring the fact it ended until after the election and Bill Clinton took office. They gave Clinton all the credit.
The media can make people think it's "brother can you spare a dime" time; the public thinks "I'm doing o.k. but apparently nobody else is". This makes them think the economy ain't truckin'
Yes, costs are too high and that hurts but the public needs to remember who drove them up in the first place - it wasn't the GOP. Current gas prices are up because of the war, but they are still substantially lower than when Biden was in office and there was no reason for them to be high except that Biden wanted to drive gas-powered vehicles off the market so they could implement the electric vehicle scheme to meet with the Paris Accord agreements.
But all the public remembers is that the prices were lower and have risen and they blame the President and the GOP in Congress. That is something the media stokes, even though the economy is truckin'. It's a gas, even if we are a bit short on bread for our gas.
So we need to keep pushing the good news like some on-fire Mormon on his missionary pilgrimage. Every time a Republican speaks he should talk about this.
Maybe we should bring bell-bottoms and afros back as a reminder of this? Peace out!

Guess Who Clancey's Lawer is Blaming
Timothy Birdnow
Lindsay Clancey's attorney Kevin Reddington puts the blame squarely where it belongs - on Donald Trump!
Yes, he blamed other Republicans too, such as Ted Cruz and Nancy Mace. I mean, why wouldn't he blame the GOP for this? It's obvious Trump snuck into Clancey's home while she was in the bathroom and murdered her three children, then framed her for it.
That may as well be his argument.
Reddington melted down in court about Trump and the GOP, because they dared express opinions about this case (gee; I kinda thought we had free speech in America) and he argued the prosecution hadn't proven their case. But in the trial Reddington never disputed that Clancey did it, but rather argued she was insane at the time. He did that because in Massachusetts the prosecution has the burden of proof to show the defendant was sane at the time of the crime. By meticulously examining the timeline and actions of Clancey they did just that.
Reddington of course outed the lone holdout juror and then asked the court to investigate the man. He was trying to send a message to future jurors; if you buck me you will pay dearly. It's jury tampering.
The juror's lawyer has filed a complaint with the bar. Reddington needs to be disbarred, and probably prosecuted. That was a criminal act.
Then the nutso lawyer went on his tirade about Trump and the GOP in an effort to gin up the unhinged white women who already were protesting Clancey's innocence (while completely ignoring her murdered children). It's an attempt to start trouble.
The article rightly compares this to the O.J. trial where all sorts of idiots showed up to protest the "Juice's" innocence against all the evidence and reason.
I wonder about Reddington; he is taking this far too personally. What exactly has been going on in the prep room with the comely Mrs. Clancey?
Anyhoo this story is a soap opera and has become as ridiculous as any soap, with a little pro rasslin' thrown in the mix.

How SCOTUS May Have Saved Christmas (and the GOP)
It's a good thing and almost makes up for the Court refusing to rule in favor of Trump over birthright citizenship. Almost.
Timothy Birdnow
Jim Hoft chronicles how the Supreme Court ruling that allowed the DOJ access to voter roles in all fifty states and to produce lists of registered voters to give to the individual states is going to have a profound impact on the vote and prevent a lot of Democrat cheating.
It's fairly long; read it yourself.

Dems Win Mullah Vote
Timothy Birdnow
Looks like the Democrats won the Mullah vote this election.
They wrote a ridiculous letter saying their nukes were entirely peaceful (why do they need nukes with all their oil?) and that the U.S. economy is about to collapse because of Trump.
It's really funny, much like Saddam Hussein's information officer saying the Americans were driven out of Iraq as you can hear the sound of gunfire. But it's important to remember that if the Iranians want the Democrats to win we don't want them. Iran has been shouting "Death to America" for generations now. Yeah; we should take advice from them!

U.S. Army Weaponized Ebola
Timothy Birdnow
DEAR GOD! This is insane!
Damn right it should never have been done!
Ebola is a terrifying disease with a kill rate that makes Smallpox seem like a winter cold. You die a horrible death with blood pouring out of every cavity of your body. It eats men's testicles like a gourmet dish. Nobody in their right mind would aerosolize it. The only reason to try that would be to make it into a biological weapon.
ebola has a mortality rate (depending on the strain and the level of medical care) between 25% and 90%, unless it's Ebola Reston which is benign in humans. It's the most lethal pathogen on Earth.
I'm pleasantly surprised Fauci realized the monstrous stupidity of doing this.
USAAMRID, the Army's biological research center, has long studied Ebola and it's cousin Marburg.
Actually, Fauci wasn't upset about the research (which showed vaccinated individuals were more prone to get sic from it than the unvaccinated) so much as about it being made public; he feared it would keep people from getting vaccinated for things and would hamper research.
That said, Fauci did say this should never have been done. Fauci is right on that.
We've been conducting research on bioweapons for decades now despite an executive order from Richard Nixon closing these programs. It is illegal to do them in the United States. But that was the loophole; the U.S. has largely been doing them in foreign countries. There were dozens in the Ukraine, for instance, which leads me to believe that was part of why Russia invaded them. Imagine if Canada or Mexico had hundreds of bioweapons research labs sitting next to the border; we'd attack for sure.
Weaponizing Ebola is insane; it's way, way too dangerous. You couldn't stop the outbreak once you started it.
The people involved in this need to be brought to account.

Dems Want High Electricity Prices
Timothy Birdnow
How anyone could vote Democrat is beyond me.
All they care about is wrecking everything so they can take political advantage. And the news media won't report this to give them cover. It's disgraceful.
Of course they want high electric bills and have for some time to promote solar panels and windmills and other ineffectual technology.

The Invermectin of the Bureaucracy
Timothy Birdnow
More winning.
The U.S. created a lot of jobs this quarter. The only ones losing jobs were the public sector. That is a huge win for America. The public sector produces nothing but instead takes and restrains those who do produce. The are parasites. You don't feed parasites - you remove them. Trump is the Invermectin of politics.
