CELEBRATION
The deplorables and garbage people won again. Can you believe it?
I've been contacted by the Trump transition team to hold some sort of position within the USDA and have accepted one of the six "Advisor to the Secretary" spots. My favorite congressman, Thomas Massie from Kentucky, has agreed to go in as Secretary of Agriculture.
He's been the sponsor of the PRIME ACT, which, if pushed through, would be the biggest shot across the bow of the entrenched industrial meat processing system we've seen in a century. Let liberty ring. Wouldn't that be a change of fortune for Big Ag?
If RFK Jr. goes in as Sec. of Health and Human Services, everything will be inverted. Talk about the coolest turn about. He'd be the boss of the Faucis and Francis Collins--the whole covid anti-science crowd. Wouldn't that be a change of fortune for Big Pharma?
And if Elon Musk goes in as a Government Waste Czar, do you think he could possibly find something?
Here's an interesting tidbit. All the income taxes in the U.S. are $2 trillion a year. Government spending and borrowing are so out of control that if we eliminated $2 trillion from the budget, it would only set us back to 2020. Does anyone think returning to government spending in 2020 would destroy things? Of course not. So all we have to do is cut federal spending to 2020 levels and we can eliminate income tax. Period. Done. How would that make you feel?
Most people don't know enough history to know that the federal government was to be financed entirely from tariffs and excise taxes. In fact, as a nation we operated just fine for nearly 150 years without an income tax. The only president who eliminated the national debt was Andrew Jackson, and he did it by eliminating the second bank of the U.S. Nearly 100 years later we got the third bank, known as the Federal Reserve, plus the income tax.
During that time, tariffs averaged 40-50 percent. After the income tax, tariffs dropped to an average of about 7 percent, where they remain today. If we went back to 40 percent, like we had for nearly 150 years, we would bring production home and free our citizens from impoverishing taxes.
Dear folks, this is a watershed moment to take a creative and serious look at the sacred cows in our nation and fry some serious burgers. We don't know history. We don't know liberty. We don't know earthworms or aquifers or immune systems. I'm hoping this election is an opening to discovery. Perhaps we could even figure out how to put negative occurrences like jails, pollution, and cancer on the nation's balance sheet, as a liability rather than an asset (Gross Domestic Product--more jails? wonderful, pour more concrete and make more jobs).
Perhaps we'll eliminate federal involvement in education, from kindergarten to college. Make every teacher accountable to performance. Eliminate ALL federal intervention in the food system, in farming, in energy. The Constitution (read it) doesn't allow for any of this and it's time to examine all of it. Shut down foreign military bases; bring them all home. Stop ALL foreign aid, from USAID to military aid. Sell stuff is fine; giving it isn't.
I think whatever taxes we pay should be able to be designated to certain departments. That way we the people could support or defund departments directly. The reason we have K street is because all our freedoms are for sale. Eliminate government manipulation and the lobbyists all go home. These are simple things. Let's do it.

Do the MAGAs here object to giving food to poor people ?
and so it begins
Hmmmm...
Who was it that said "elections have consequences "?
I can think of better consequences. When a Christian publication says you're racist you're probably racist.
What makes the publication an expert on racism?
Do you really need to be an expert?
Seems that way since so many call people racist, Nazi, fascist and lots of other things incorrectly
So you’re an expert then?
Did he say he was? He asked a simple question, if the publication is an expert.
Did I say he said he was? No, but his comments indicate he may think he is. So, I asked for clarification.
He has declared that people are called “racist, Nazi, fascist and lots of other things incorrectly.” He also says there is perhaps a need for expertise.
So, expertise is asked for, and yet judgment is also made - by the same person. Ergo, he may consider himself to be an expert.
So did I. Still waiting for an answer. For some reason, you think that’s ok for him, but not for me. Maybe instead of white-knighting, you’d like to opine on the necessity of expertise when accusing someone of racism. That is the topic, after all.
Are you suggesting the use of those names in the last several months have been used correctly?
I made no such assessment either way. But you did. Then you suggested one should maybe be an expert to make such a judgment. So I ask again. Are you an expert?
Gee that is not what Kennedy said on an interview today.
I suggest that people start flossing and brushing their teeth 5 times a day, when they get up and wash, after breakfast, after lunch, after dinner and before going to bed, because dentistry may become the most lucrative profession, even beating personal injury lawyers. And be careful not to slip and fall on the freshly washed floors of the hospital when you visit your grandson who's in an iron lung, and your granddaughter, who was born with no arms.
Nicholas Fuentes can go fuck himself. There! That's a choice he can make with his own body. Not mine
