Trump's DOJ could regain a ton of credibility by simply charging Fauci. If they fail to do so the entire system might as well collapse. Fauci funded the creation of a bioweapon, lied about it under oath and killed millions of people
Do it now or just admit you're the swamp
Senator Rand Paul@SenRandPaul
6 days from now, on May 11th, the statute of limitations expires on the possibility of indicting Anthony Fauci for denying under oath that he funded gain-of-function research involving bat coronaviruses in Wuhan, the origin city of the pandemic.

“I’m open to lifting a tax as long as we put another tax in its place to negate any positive effects for consumers.”
This is why California is so cooked.

NBC: "California has the highest tax on gasoline...would you call on Governor Gavin Newsom to suspend the gas tax?" SCHIFF: "I'd be open to that as long as we place that windfall profits tax on oil companies."

Inflation is “the most regressive tax that anyone in Washington could come up with,” Kevin Warsh has said.
“If you were trying to do the most harm to the least well off among us, inflation would be the way to do it."

The so-called “Billionaire Tax” gives politicians power to expand the tax to your home equity, savings and even retirement accounts. It’s not a billionaire tax. It’s an everyone tax.

Donald Trump named Candace Owens the most vile person of the year.
Not someone from the Epstein Files.
Not someone starting unnecessary wars killing innocent people.
Not someone who rapes and kills.
Just someone who questions the narrative they push.
Makes you wonder.

Jerome Powell held 63 press conference as Fed chairman and over that time there wasn't a single question about the 40% money supply spike in 2020-21 or $18 trillion increase in the national debt during his tenure as the root causes of inflation.
That's either unbelievable incompetence on the part of the most renowned financial journalists in the business or questioning/dissent is not allowed.
Which is it?
Charlie Bilello@charliebilello
The Fed expanded the money supply by nearly $9 trillion under Powell. Inflation has averaged >4% per year over the past 6 years. Powell's explanation? It was nearly all due to rolling “supply shocks" over which the Fed has no control. The truth: this inflation was made in Washington as it always is - from too much government borrowing/spending and too much government creation of money.

Just imagine how dark and satanic those files must be that they had to start an actual war just to distract people to bury them.

Anticapitalists have absolutely no fucking right to say the words “we need new revenue”
REVENUE FROM WHAT????? From where???? You push all the value generators out with your commie scum policies and over-regulation. Who the fuck is going to generate this “new revenue”
FUCK. I fucking hate people who don’t understand HOW LITERALLY ANYTHING WORKS

Mamdani declares a “budget crisis” after four months in office as New York City’s Mayor: “We cannot close this deficit with savings alone. We need new revenue, and we need a structural reset in our relationship with the state.”

This government is a fucking joke. And if you’re still delusional to think it’s one party vs the other, so are you. They are all on the same team!
This is a fucking class war, and “we the people” are getting our fucking asses kicked.
Losing more and more rights by the day, enriching the 1% more and more, and allowing every big corporation with a lobby, every foreign country with a hand out, and every scumbag politician that’s figured out there’s no consequences, to rob us fucking blind.

FISA 702 just passed the House. This bill lets the government search Americans’ private communications without a warrant—in direct violation of the Fourth Amendment. But don’t blame the GOP alone. Forty-two Democrats betrayed the American people to help Mike Johnson pass it.

The California Tax Strategy:
1. Tax the rich.
2. Rely on the top 5% to fund 60%+ of government.
3. Mock them, punish them, and make them feel unwelcome.
4. They leave your state
Pure financial suicide.
