[A continuing miss to Fox and other conservative outlets for not bringing up and highlighting daily ‘the border is secure’ lies of the anti-American Biden administration and presidency.  No president in our history has purposely or otherwise done so much damage to our republic as has this functional idiot in the White House.  gjr]

    The lack of a secure border is barely scratching the surface of concern in the U.S. It’s shown up in M. Vineyard, NY City, Cali, Chicago, DC, Denver, El Paso. But there is always Fed money to cover up the problems.
    And the free-loaders (who are anything but free to taxpayers) aren’t stealing enough electric cars to be noticeable yet.

    Paul – ” It came out today that Trumps taxes never were being audited.”
    Paul once again shows he has a poor understanding of English. They stated only that Trump had not been audited for the first 2 years of his presidency This would have been a time period at least a year after he had made that statement. And the article admitted that he would probably be advised not to release his taxes in that event. Since Trump is not a tax lawyer, he wouldn’t necessarily know what the law is re releasing his taxes during an audit.
    I realize that Paul has a need to manufacture a new Trump-hate factoid every day, but the reality is that the senile, lying, pervert crook he bragged about voting for is wrecking our nation.

    More on the jobs with a different take: lies, lies, and lies. It is not healthy for our country America when we the people have lost trust in the media, lost trust in our hellhole education system, and lost trust in our institutions. A bad omen.
    SORRY ABOUT THOSE JOBS
    “In the second quarter of this year, we created more jobs than in any quarter under any of my predecessors in the nearly 40 years before the pandemic,” Mr. Biden said on July 8.
    “One of the problems with perverting the federal bureaucracy, as the Democrats have done, is that pretty much everyone loses faith in the integrity of government. At this point, there is no reason to assume that government numbers are accurate and unfudged. We have been lied to, too many times.
    It is sad, but that is where we find ourselves. Trust has been destroyed.”

    “So what if the FBI violated the First Amendment rights of ordinary Americans? So what if the bureau was part of a conspiracy with intelligence officials to label the Biden laptop disinformation when it knew otherwise?
    Generations of fair journalists, seeing themselves as patriots first, would have grabbed this huge, complicated story with both hands. Today, the evidence of FBI interference in an election is met with a media shrug because a shared objective was achieved: removing Trump.
    Finally, consider this possibility. Because it has had the laptop and who knows what other sources and information, the FBI has known all along that Joe Biden is a corrupt president who is compromised in his dealings with China and America’s other adversaries.
    If true, there are two implications.
    We have in Biden, as John Dean famously said about Nixon, “a cancer on the presidency.”
    We also have an FBI that has returned to the ethos of J. Edgar Hoover. He kept his job for nearly five decades by keeping files of dirt on presidents, senators, members of Congress, the media and many prominent private citizens, such as Martin Luther King Jr.”

    Here’s a chorus of Trump lies on his taxes:
    “If I decide to run for office, I’ll produce my tax returns, absolutely. And I would love to do that,” said Trump in one clip.
    “I would certainly show tax returns if it was necessary,” he said in another.
    “I’m very honest in my tax returns,” he said in yet another.
    “I have very big returns as you know. And I have everything all approved and very beautiful and we’ll be working on it,” he said in still another.
    “My returns are extremely complex, and I’ll make a determination at the right time. I have a very complex system of taxes,” he said in a fifth clip.
    “I’m under audit. When you’re under audit, you don’t do it. But I’m under audit,” said Trump in one clip.
    “I would love to give them, but I’m not going to do it while I’m under audit. It’s very simple,” he said in another.
    “I’m under a routine audit, and it will be released,” he echoed in another.
    “As soon as the audit is finished, it will be released,” he said in yet another.
    “I’m not really releasing tax returns because, as you know, they’re under audit,” said Trump in a fifth clip.
    “Actually, I paid tax. You’ll see that as soon as my tax returns. It’s under audit. They’ve been under audit for a long time. The IRS does not treat me well,”
