“Nikki Haley's strong showing in Pennsylvania's recent Republican primary may give Donald Trump something to think about, even if vice presidential...”

Does the outcome of the 2024 Presidential election hinge upon who Donald Trump picks for Vice President?  Will the Republican Party allow Donald Trump the choice? Let's face it, the electorate ain't overly enthused about a second Biden term.  Kamala Harris has a natural talent for undermining...

Biden's worst-case economic scenario is unfolding at the worst possible time

Via: Nerm_L  •  News Viners  •  2 Comments  •  6 Likes  •  7 months ago

“The economic growth that the administration hoped would at least outstrip inflation's increase — and reverse some of that cumulative effect — is not.”

Biden's Build Back Better was an alliterative flop.  Bidenomics became just another iteration of 'Let's Go, Brandon!'  Ordinary people on Main Street have heard these promises before.  And they can see what's over the horizon.  When tech workers are being laid off in droves then who will save the...

Sen. Whitehouse: Climate change could crash the financial system

Via: Nerm_L  •  News Viners  •  2 Comments  •  3 Likes  •  7 months ago

“Climate change’s impact on insurance companies is putting the U.S. in danger of a financial meltdown, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I) told The Hill.”

Right on cue.  There's talk of more stringent 'Basel III' regulation of bank financing for climate mitigation projects and a Democrat threatens to drown the puppies.  Sen. Whitehouse likes to cite Florida and the Gulf Coast as examples of the risk of property values collapsing.  As usual, that...

'Basel III' bank rules could pose unexpected threat to Biden's green energy plans

“Renewable energy groups and congressional Democrats are raising alarms about potential harm to clean energy goals from a proposed banking regulation.”

First I've heard of this.  But the news isn't surprising.  Banks have been subsidized and bailed out by taxpayers since Bill Clinton approved the repeal of Glass-Steagall.  (That's supposedly one of Joe Biden's biggest regrets.  Hey, Joe, that vote is gonna bite you on the ass.)  

Biden says US to begin sending military equipment to Ukraine within 'hours'

Via: Nerm_L  •  News Viners  •  12 Comments  •  3 Likes  •  7 months ago

“Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Wednesday "the key now is speed."”

Joe Biden openly brags that he has been lying to the American people all along.  The war materiel has been pre-positioned in Poland.  Biden could have released the stuff months ago.  Biden only wanted Congress to cover his backside.  And Biden's brag is delivered against the backdrop of...

Opinion | How Ukraine can make best use of the U.S. aid package

Via: Nerm_L  •  News Viners  •  1 Comments  •  3 Likes  •  7 months ago

“The infusion of arms won't end the war. But it averts the worst possible outcomes.”

The Ukrainian aid story falls off the news cycle today after Biden signs the legislation.  Biden has gotten all the bounce he's gonna get from spending this money. Did you know the unspoken purpose of the aid package was to obtain Congressional approval for escalating the war?  As Ignatius...

Democrats help advance Ukraine, Israel aid in rare rules move

“The House Rules Committee late Thursday night advanced a package of foreign aid bills — but only with help from Democrats”

Now it's official; Biden's wars belong to Democrats.  Hard-line Republicans (and Trump) have provided 'I told ya so' cover for Republicans.  The only way out of the impasse was for Democrats to assume full responsibility for Biden's quagmires. Joe Biden has been making dire predictions for...

Trump leads Biden in latest national poll

Via: Nerm_L  •  News Viners  •  18 Comments  •  4 Likes  •  7 months ago

“Former President Trump is leading President Biden among potential voters in the upcoming presidential election”

Yup, the polls are flopping around like fish on a red tide beach.  We know that either Biden or Trump will squeak out a margin-of-error win in November in spite of public desire for better candidates.  The country is going to be stuck with a President that a majority of people do not want. Do we...

Ukraine will be outgunned by Russia 10 to 1 in weeks without US help, top Europe general says

“The top general for U.S. forces in Europe has told Congress that Ukraine will be outgunned 10 to one by Russia within a matter of weeks if Congress...”

The eight-star military brasswipes have confirmed that NATO cannot defend Europe.  These brasswipes are telling us that the largest, most powerful military organization on the planet cannot even deploy troops without a $60 billion supplemental spending authorization.  What has Biden gotten us...

Opinion | We built 7 EV chargers in 2 years. That’s actually not the problem.

“The charger program makes a ton of sense. The problem lies in the way the Democrats habitually mislead the public on the near-term impact of public...”

Gee, Democrats habitually lie to the public about Big Government to justify spending boatloads of taxpayer money?  And the unbiased liberal cheerleaders in the press actually think the public is too darned stupid to understand what's going on.  Maybe these unbiased (and well paid) opinionators...
