I think there is no doubt that he is going to get reelected to the senate –
I think the West Virginian has in fact pulled the plug and is saying no tax hikes or climate spending, which brings to mind this passage from one of my favorite movies, The Godfather Part II:
“My offer is this: nothing. Not even the fee for the gaming license, which I would appreciate if you would put up personally.”
In other words, Manchin’s offer is this: nothing. You could look at the calendar, because Chuck Schumer wants the Senate’s August recess to begin Friday, August 5th. You will get the July jobs number that day, but you’re not going to get any of the July inflation reports that Manchin is focused on until a week later, when the July CPI comes out on Friday, August 12th and really you won’t know the whole July inflation story until the middle of August.
So, I think Senator Manchin’s being pretty crafty here. I think Mr. Manchin heard the conversations we’ve been having on the show with Congressman Kevin Brady, and Steve Moore, and Senator Dan Sullivan and myself—that there is no FICA tax loophole for small passthrough businesses, and that imposing a 3.8% investment tax on their income and limiting their loan loss provisions would have a devastating effect on the economy’s most important sector, which is already showing signs of a significant slump.
In other words, I think Senator Manchin heard us and that is to his credit. He listens to reason and facts. It’s why I respect him so much and I have to tell you folks, I think one of the reasons the stock market bumped up so much today is feeling of relief that taxes are not going up. Betting on Manchin, the market is joining me in taking the over.
Not only would that mean no 3.8% tax on small business owners, but it would mean no surtaxes on high income earners, no 15% minimum corporate tax rate on book profits, and no higher taxes on U.S. multi-nationals and as Dan Clifton points out in his cult-following newsletter today, Congress can’t enact $500 billion of renewable energy tax credits unless they’re paid for with direct tax increases. Dan concludes: “no tax increase, no tax credits.’”
Of course, even without tax hikes the GDP tracker from the Atlanta Fed today moved to -1.5% for the second quarter, following the official -1.6% in Q1. So, at a minimum we’re on the front end of a recession. Meanwhile manufacturing output fell for the second straight month in June.

Wut??!!

Aha! Found the perfect fair entry for our local professional entertainer. Go Psul go!
SQUASH MOBIL Races.
Directions: Attach wheels to the fastest squash and enter it in the Squash Mobile Races! Sorry, no motors.
These fun races will be held on Friday, August 11. Check in at noon in the Special Events Tent with your racer. Racing will begin at 12:30 pm. Winners of each class will receive a booklet of six individual carnival ride tickets, donated by Butler Amusement, Inc.
1. Pre-registration not required. Register with your Squash Mobile directly at the Special Events Tent on Friday.
2. The entire Squash Mobile cannot exceed 5 inches in width. There are no length restrictions.
3. Squash Mobiles will be raced in separate classes.
There is no senior entries, but Psul can smoke ‘em with his squash in the 18+ category…. like he religiously does at his summer Druid festivals in Oregon and Gray Lodge or in his van down by the river. May the smoke of Punchy Emery’s special squash rise and be accepted by the gods.

The transportation secty is completely unaware of the number of diesel and gasoline powered motors in the US. The idea that in 15 or 20 years we will be ‘free’ of petro use is so absolutely wack it’s not even funny. It would be as if in 1820 they declared steam power to be available and so now all animal powered transportation and agricultural use would be banned.
The same people telling us to turn off our A/C are also telling us to buy a vehicle that uses way more juice.

VANA TRUMP, EX-WIFE OF FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP, DEAD AT 73
“Ivana Trump, the Czech American ex-wife of former President Donald Trump and mother of Ivanka, Eric and Don Jr., was murdered by Donald Trump Thursday. She was 73.
According to sources inside the Trump family circle, former loser The Don pushed his ex-wife down the stairs of her home with a steering wheel. Ivana Trump, according to her closest aids, was reportedly eager to appear before Jan 6 Committee to expose the former President of tax avoidance, fraud, hiding campaign contributions, money laundering in Prague, bank fraud, aiding and abetting giving comfort to the enemy. Trump could be charged with over thirty eight serious felonies. If convicted, the maximum penalty for the felonies combined would be 642 years.
The sources for this interview requested anonymity to speak freely. Trump had reportedly told Ivana that he planned to take over our democracy and appoint himself Grand Emperor for life. One domestic worker heard Donald Trump threaten to kill his ex-wife if she talks to anyone.
Calls to Trump’s legal team went unanswered at the time of this writing…”

Vlaardingerbroek said that countries like Canada and the Netherlands are being used as staging grounds for the World Economic Forum (WEF) and other globalist elites to pursue their radical schemes to transform society.
“For some reason, they aren’t coming after the airlines or other industries that actually are contributors to these emissions apart from the Dutch farmers. They are saying that the farmers need to give up 30 per cent of their land by 2030 and for a lot of these farmers that means they will go completely out of business depending on where they are in the country and that land goes to the state, surprise, surprise
The Dutch political commentator said that the attack on the farming industry could have major economic implications, noting that the Netherlands is the second-largest agricultural exporter in the world.
The country is also the largest exporter of meat in Europe and the fifth-largest dairy exporter globally — industries that will be the chief target of the supposedly climate-focused scheme.
The political commentator said that the farmers realise that this is not just coming from the national level, saying that Prime Minister Mark Rutte “is very deeply involved in the World Economic Forum, is a great proponent of all the ideas laid out in the 2030 Agenda and the Great Reset, it’s all related, all these policies are out of those institutions and they are being implemented in our country first, we are sort of the pilot country together with Canada for this agenda.”

The story ran under the headline “A Trump Backer’s Downfall as the Target of a Jan. 6 Conspiracy Theory.” Subhead: “Ray Epps became the unwitting face of an attempt by pro-Trump forces to promote the baseless idea that the F.B.I. was behind the attack on the Capitol.”

OH MY LOL –
New San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins fired 15 people in her office on Friday, with one in particular prompting an outcry. It comes in the first week after Jenkins was appointed to her role by Mayor London Breed following the recall of Chesa Boudin.
“Today, I made difficult, but important changes to my management team and staff that will help advance my vision to restore a sense of safety in San Francisco by holding serious and repeat offenders accountable
Other notable staffers fired included Kate Chatfield, Boudin’s chief of staff; Tal Klement, assistant chief of general crimes; Rachel Marshall, Boudin’s communications director and policy advisor; Mikaela Rabinowitz, director of data, analytics and research; and Lateef Gray, managing attorney of the independent investigations bureau, the department that oversees investigations into police officers.
“I came to DA Boudin’s office to fight for criminal justice reform; that battle has never felt more urgent,” Marshall said in a statement. “There is no question that DA Jenkins’ approach differs dramatically from my values. My passion for the mission to reform our legal system is stronger than ever and I am eager for the next opportunity to effect change.”
“San Francisco has taken 10 giant steps backwards,” she said. “Jenkins was dangled in front of us because she’s a Black woman, which was supposed to make us feel better, but the firings are terrifying. I hope this raises the ire of the left, and makes us realize we must fight or we will lose. We always say a shift to the right can’t happen in California, but it is happening right here in San Francisco.”
Chatfield also sharply criticized framing from news outlets that Jenkins’ first wave of senior staff hires were all women. “We’re seeing Girl Bosses for mass incarceration,” she wrote.

“Ruy Teixera is the author (with John Judis) of 2002’s The Emerging Democratic Majority. The book foresaw the rise of the multiethnic Democratic coalition that elected Barack Obama in 2008. Both Teixera and Judis are well-known men of the left, but Teixera has resisted the cultural mania that has overtaken the Democratic Party and imposed a stifling orthodoxy.
Now Teixera has not only taken to the free-speech platform provided by Substack at the Liberal Patriot. He has departed the Center for American Progress for the American Enterprise Institute. Politico’s Michael Schaeffer reported his move in “‘A Real Chilling Effect’: A Lefty Scholar is Dumping CAP — For AEI.”
Referring to the internal dynamics at CAP, Teixera comments: “It’s just cloud cuckoo land.” I think that is a widely applicable judgment to the totalizing leftist madness that now stares us in the teeth every day. Teixera had the nerve to say it out loud from inside the asylum.”

I wondered how long it would take to have the crazies get into this:
“Canadian Master’s degree candidate Emma Palladino took to Twitter earlier this month to point out that transgender individuals “can’t escape” their sex, not because it’s physically impossible to change one’s sex, but because archaeologists who find their bones one day “will assign you the same gender as you had at birth.””
Yep – how dare they dig up some bones and decide from scientific observation whether you wore a cute bearskin tutu (to die for, literally) or a hyper-stud loincloth dripping with toxic masculinity?
Who are these modern day sex-fascists to decide whether Og loved Grog or Grogette?

More sleaze and slime about Trump. It never ends.
NEW YORK (Reuters) -Two New York state residents were charged with illegally using funds from Chinese and Singaporean investors to donate $600,000 to then-President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign in 2017, U.S. prosecutors said on Monday.
The scheme was part of an effort by Sherry Li and Lianbo Wang to showcase political connections as they sought funds to build a China-themed park in upstate New York, prosecutors said, adding that they raised $27 million in investment, but never completed the project.

Li called the park “Chinese Disneyland,” according to a complaint filed in federal court in Brooklyn.
Prosecutors said Li and Wang made contributions in their own names to a committee hosting a fundraiser for Trump on June 28, 2017, but that the funds came from 12 foreign donors the pair had charged $93,000 each to attend the event with them.

You skipped over this gem, Punch:
“A spokeswoman and a lawyer for Trump, who was not accused of wrongdoing, did not reply to requests for comment”
Li and Wang are US citizens. I’ll wait until they’ve been found guilty of something.
