We now live in a country where our leaders say you can't open your business to feed your family... but you need to keep paying their salaries so they can feed their families.
We cannot indefinitely prop up our economy with exorbitant government spending. The nation is nearly $30 trillion in debt, and inflation is becoming an increasing risk. Eventually the entire house of cards collapses.
It wasn’t the pandemic that crushed productivity, destroyed supply chains, and decimated small businesses… It was the response by power-hungry politicians and bureaucrats, who used the pandemic as an excuse to significantly grow the size and scope of government.
Apparently any critique of a liberal woman is sexist. The suggestion that women are incapable of handling the same level of criticism as men is infantilizing--but we all know this is about politics. Democrats realize Kamala lost the debate + now all they can do is shout "Sexism!"
Apparently CNN is gearing up to sue the White House for suspending Jim Acosta's press pass. LOL. Acosta should've been banned a long time ago. He uses these pressers to make himself famous, taking valuable time away from what should be informational mtgs.
The wealthy parents involved in the college cheating scandal not only robbed their own kids of the opportunity to succeed fairly, but also of the opportunity to FAIL! I've learned much more from my personal failures than from any of my successes.
Given that
#TurnTexasBlue
is trending, here's a piece I wrote on the topic... Over the coming months, Trump + his surrogates will be forced to spend more time campaigning in Texas, which will diminish time + resources for other crucial swing states.
Those in power are attempting to use a pandemic to put in place a police state. This has been happening incrementally throughout the last year, so that people will accept (or even embrace) rising authoritarianism put in place under the guise of "safety."
And as the federal government moves to squash individual landlords, BlackRock is buying up entire US neighborhoods far above market value. Working families are being priced out of the market and into rentals.
The Great Reset…
The new 60-day CDC eviction moratorium carries steep criminal penalties for individual landlords who break the law:
- Potential $100k fine and 1 year in jail if eviction doesn't result in death
- Up to $250k fine and 1 year in jail if evicted person dies

... The media treats the Southern Poverty Law Center as an authoritative civil rights organization. But in reality the SPLC is a partisan scam that labels anyone who doesn't fall in line with its left-wing ideology an “extremist” or “hate group.”
Progressive urbanites are deserting expensive liberal meccas like New York + San Francisco, and flocking to red states like AZ, NH, + TX. My new book reveals the stunning consequences of the great flight from blue cities to red towns. GET YOUR COPY TODAY:
Leftists are justifying what would be the largest tax hike in a generation by saying we need the money to fund infrastructure.... but a $2-4 TRILLION infrastructure bill will likely just be a trojan horse for expensive initiatives like a radical climate agenda. Don't be fooled...
The Dems are no longer champions for the working-class. A new left-wing proposal would reinstate SALT deductions, which would overwhelmingly benefit high-income households. SALT also forces low tax states like TX to subsidizes the tax + spend schemes of places like NYC, LA, & SF.
What a disgrace. There’s no evidence that opening schools poses a risk to students, staff members, or the broader community. But we DO know that long term virtual learning has been destructive to the physical and mental health of students, and widened the achievement gap.
New York City has reached the 3% testing positivity 7-day average threshold. Unfortunately, this means public school buildings will be closed as of tomorrow, Thursday Nov. 19, out an abundance of caution.
We must fight back the second wave of COVID-19.
“Canceling” student debt forces blue collar workers to subsidize overpriced liberal arts degrees for upper-income kids. Insanely unfair to those who chose not to go to college because they couldn’t afford it, & to those who responsibly paid off their debt fast

Ana Navarro is a pathetic actress on CNN, not a serious analyst. It's ridiculous that they even call her a "Republican Strategist"; I can't remember the last time she said anything positive about Republicans or conservatism.
DeSantis > Trump
Dems are desperate for Trump to be the 2024 nominee, so they can make the entire election about "threats to democracy" and Jan 6. DeSantis would be a much better choice for the GOP.
The best “relief” the federal government could give working Americans is to stop taking so much of our hard-earned money in the first place. How absurd and insulting that we’re supposed to be excited about a one-time $1,400 check.
If public schools will not reopen for in-person learning ALL YEAR, they should be defunded and parents should be given the $ to arrange for their children's education privately. This is ridiculous, and utterly unfair to kids from poor families that cannot afford private school.

Democrats remained silent during eight years, while the Obama Administration launched its drone war--563 authorized strikes killed up to 800 civilians. It's time to finally end pointless, costly wars and BRING OUR TROOPS HOME! Right now we need de-escalation and diplomacy.
The centrist Democratic Party of JFK and Bill Clinton is dead. The Democratic Party of today stands for high taxes, increased regulation, and flagrant socialism.
Watched the town hall with "Crazy Bernie." He came off mean + cantankerous (even while interacting with his own supporters). Say what you will about Trump, he's fantastic in front of a crowd + I suspect he would destroy Bernie--at least when it comes to style--in a debate.
New York has been losing people in droves--last year, the state was the nation's biggest loser in terms of overall population loss. As a result, Albany suffered an unexpected $2.3 billion dip in tax revenue. NY politicians' big solution? MORE TAXES!
Peaceful protests are growing in
#Cuba
as the Cuban people exercise their right to peaceful assembly to express concern about rising COVID cases/deaths & medicine shortages. We commend the numerous efforts of the Cuban people mobilizing donations to help neighbors in need.
It's not the government's job to protect our health--it's the government's job to protect our RIGHTS. When you trade liberty for safety, you end up losing both.
Shocked to see so many "conservatives" supporting federally-mandated paid family leave. The government should not have the power to coerce employers--with already-tight profit margins--to pay someone for work they are not doing.
The recent attacks on gun owners and

Google employees are protesting sexual harassment at high levels of the company.
But this may be the least of Google's woes. The company is actively losing trust from users due to the politicization of its search engine, which suppresses conservative news...
"Medicare for all" would cost at LEAST $32.6 trillion. Liz Warren says she would pay for her big govt plans with a (likely unconstitutional) wealth tax... but such a tax would only bring in about $2.75 over a decade, which would cover just 8% of the cost of Medicare for All.
Our nation has become addicted to victimhood. Instead of teaching young people to take responsibility for their own actions, we teach them to blame others when things go wrong. Life isn't a fairy tale. Bad things happen everyday--it's how we respond to those things that matters.
Income taxes make up less than HALF your tax burden. Find out all the other ways you're being taxed every day--and how to keep more of your $--in my new book from St. Martin's Press, "How Do I Tax Thee?":
Incredible how so many on Twitter who were medical experts during the height of COVID, then legal experts during the impeachment trials, are now finance experts. Wow!

, this clip felt relevant. Taxpayer-funded students loans allow colleges hike tuition each year with impunity. Today, the feds fund over 70% of all student aid!
@AftertheBell
In one example, a Texas police department sent a SWAT team with guns drawn and military-style vehicles to arrest 8 people for reopening a bar. There's a role for police to keep the peace, but there's a difference between a police response and a military response.
The pandemic has been used as an excuse to empower police departments to an alarming extent. In recent weeks Americans have been handcuffed for being in public parks with their children, or for operating their small businesses in order to put food on the table for their families.
I have many small business owners in my family. They don’t want more government loans or PPP funding... they just want the ability to fully reopen their businesses, and get back to work!

Median income in 2019 was $35,977.
With a 5% rate of inflation, the value of the $1,400 stimulus has already been wiped out through inflation. Inflation is the ultimate hidden tax.
(5% of $35,977 is approximately $1800)

Joe Biden's approval ratings with 18-30 year olds has dropped 25 percentage points since January 2021, per Gallup. This is the biggest drop of any age group - and an age group that helped Dems win the House in 2018 and 2020.
Biden needs to cancel student debt ASAP.

In Arlington, VA, tens of millions in handouts to Amazon will be funded by a hike in hotel taxes. To be clear, Arlington is raising taxes to "pay" Amazon. This is exactly how crony capitalism works!!
