[This reissues a call for anyone to point out only ONE THING that Biden has done to benefit America and/or Americans.  Everything that Team Biden touches has turned into shit.  As a sample of the latest Bidenomics offal, consider his new forest plan that will restrict logging on tens of millions of acres of national forests to fight climate change.  Implementing this plan will increase CO2 emissions, eliminate thousands of jobs, increase the number of catastrophic wildfires, and increase the cost of all wood products from houses to kitchen implements (more here).  That guy and the evil idiots who manage him are an ongoing disaster for the country. gjr]

    “…served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) from 1984 to 2022, and the chief medical advisor to the president from 2021 to 2022.”
    He was around a long time before Trump was sworn in as POTUS. Had Trump been aware of what a lying snake Fauci was, he would have fired his ass ASAP.
    Blaming Fauci on Trump is childish nonsense.

    “Central bank’s deficit of $114.3 billion last year resulted from its efforts to stimulate economy and then stamp out inflation”
    The only proper and lasting way to “stimulate” the economy (by the govt) is to enable an increased production of goods of actual value that are wanted by a free market.
    Manipulation of interest rates to that end is just juicing the financial body with meth.
    Then, of course, you have to deal with the crash.
    And they get away with it by claiming “good intentions”.

    In the meantime, many of its “employees” are underlings who run personal errands or are domestic staff for the Oscar-winning singer and actress, the paper said.
    Barbra Streisand is reportedly worth up to $430 million, according to Forbes magazine.

    Oh, are we at war? Could have sworn that was what Trump was supposed to get us into. Looks like Biden is the war hawk. Paul will be proud. He always said he likes presidents who get the US into wars. Right?
    further:
    “That’s because conflicts in the Middle East and a parched Panama Canal risk creating supply shocks that stoke inflation.”
    Uh, no. Those 2 reasons may be valid for increased prices, but that’s not “inflation”.
    Keeping the interest rates high will increase the cost of running the fed govt and that might cause the good folks that operate our fed budget to spend a crap-load of money we don’t have, and THAT will increase inflation, but please lets not blame outside forces.

    Listen up, folks – ‘inflation’ is the name we give to the reduced actual value of the dollar.
    It usually causes increased prices for the same goods and services, but it is not the same as increased prices of a commodity such as coffee because of a failed coffee bean crop. I always like to say that my wallet doesn’t care what the cause is, but that applies to kitchen table politics. People who run our nation should know the difference but sadly I doubt many of them do.

    Oh, good Lord – if anyone out there wants to know the essence of Sam Harris, I would recommend this pod cast. The host bends over backwards to throw bones to him, but he keeps contradicting himself in his own words. He claims that “conversation’ is the hope and salvation of mankind, but he won’t debate people on certain topics because of reasons that he invents.
    He won’t debate the govt’s covid response because it’s a “moving target”. He admits the CDC “shaded” the truth but claims he has the moral high ground because – wait for it – “what if”. Yes – he openly invents a reality and then claims the invented reality justifies his refusal to discus an immensely important topic of reality. Remember that Sam Harris is regarded as an important intellectual figure and yet he is just a huge fraud.
    I can not imagine W F Buckley refusing to debate any important topic for any reason. Agree with him or not, he would stand and deliver. Deliver us from those who will not stand up in public and give rational reason for their side of the argument.

    “Moms for Liberty, the organization birthed by MAGA political operatives, bankrolled by far-right funders, and designed to coerce American families into the war on freedom and equality, is reeling after allegations of sexual assault were lodged against its architects.
    Christian Ziegler, Florida GOP Chair and husband to Moms For Liberty co-founder Bridget, faces accusations that he assaulted the couple’s sexual partner, plunging the pair and their organizations into chaos. The allegations are currently being investigated by law enforcement.
    As the two face increasing calls for their resignation, the nation has been given a look into the values driving a Moms For Liberty operation that has hijacked school boards, decimated academic freedom, and terrorized families: hypocrisy, lies, and a relentless thirst for power no matter who they hurt in the process.”
