Original Article

The Biden administration has issued a warning that the pending federal debt crisis could trigger an economic recession that would impact economic growth and trigger job losses across the United States. “Hitting the debt ceiling could cause a recession. Economic growth would falter, unemployment would rise, and the labor market could lose millions of jobs,” the White House said in a letter (pdf) to state and local governments(snip) Arguing that Congress needs to raise or suspend the U.S. debt ceiling, the administration said the debt crisis could impact the country’s recovery after the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic. In July, Congress missed its deadline to suspend or raise the debt limit,

“Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?” Biden Time is just too much fun. :-(

In other words, "If you object to our destroying the Republic with another $3.5 trillion in spending, we and our friends in the press will blame you."

Drinking a quart of vodka every day could trigger alcoholism. So what is the point? Answer is to stop spending money we don't have. You want more economic health, put people to work and lower taxes.

Democrats control the House and Senate thus they have the votes to pass an increase in the debt ceiling all by themselves and Biden has the authority to sign it. If they do so they will be entirely accountable for the consequences. Are Biden and Congressional Democrats willing to forsake their prolifigate spending to avoid the dire consequences claimed in the Biden administration's warning to state and local governments about drastic cuts to Medicaid, food stamps, disaster relief and other federal programs? They must establish their priorities and make a choice. Is Biden afraid that the constituents of Democrats in Congress will vote them out of office if they push through a bill increasing the debt limit? Does Biden not trust Congressional Democrats to do his bidding?

We were told this BS back in 2008 about causting a new Great Depression if we didn't spend more $$$$ No nation in the history of the EARTH has ever become prosperous going into further debt. All it does is ruin the worth of a dollar, and create economic collape by breaking the institutions and infrastructure to the point of a government take over by a FEW individuals a la the Russian Revolution. The fact of the matter is that only a VERy SMALL group of people took over the ENTIRE COUNTRY by taking the seat of power-- This is just one more bag of goodies for liberal causes and state at the expense of the people-- As Mark Levin describes it... American Marxism.

The 26-page indictment of former cybersecurity attorney and Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann by special counsel John Durham is as detailed as it is damning on the alleged effort to push a false Russia collusion claim before the 2016 presidential campaign. One line, however, seems to reverberate for those of us who have followed this scandal for years now: “You do realize that we will have to expose every trick we have in our bag.” That warning from an unnamed “university researcher” captures the most fascinating aspect of the indictment in describing a type of Nixonian dirty tricks operation run by — or at least billed to — the Clinton

The news was heartbreaking and what everyone feared. On Sunday, a body believed to be that of a missing woman, Gabby Petito, was found a camping area in Wyoming's Bridger-Teton National Forest, near Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. Her boyfriend, Brian Laundrie, who was traveling with her, has meanwhile vanished. He is now the subject of an intensive search in Florida where the couple lived. Whether law enforcement is officially calling him a suspect in Petito’s death is immaterial and nothing more than the parsing of legally-loaded vocabulary. Police and the FBI are certainly treating him as a suspect. And for good reason.

Petito's family are aware of the clip and have said they "believe this is the van for multiple reasons." Police are yet to verify whether or not the van shown is the white Ford Transit used by the couple, investigators confirmed to Newsweek.

The scientific method used to govern much of popular American thinking. In empirical fashion, scientists advised us to examine evidence and data, and then by induction come to rational hypotheses. The enemies of “science” were politics, superstition, bias, and deduction. Yet we are now returning to our version of medieval alchemy and astrology in rejecting a millennium of the scientific method. Take the superstitions that now surround COVID-19. We now know from data that a prior case of COVID-19 offers immunity as robust as vaccination. Why, then, are Joe Biden’s proposed vaccination mandates ignoring that scientific fact? Dr. Anthony Fauci, when asked, seemed at a loss for words.

They were a gruesome twosome. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were both in on withdrawing from Afghanistan. They apparently both ignored the various memos and reports from the State Department and elsewhere that painted a much more dismal picture of what things were like on the ground. I take that back; Joe did know. That’s why he phoned now-ex-Afghan President Ashraf Ghani prior to his government’s collapse to essentially lie about the state of his country. Biden wanted Ghani to be ‘Baghdad Bob,’ but Ghani was more concerned about modernizing Afghanistan’s economy than the deteriorating security situation.

A Hillary Clinton lawyer has been indicted for lying to the FBI in the Clinton campaign’s 2016 smear of Donald Trump. The lawyer fed bogus information to the FBI to fuel the false allegation that Trump was colluding with Russia. The lawyer lied to the FBI by stating that he was acting purely as a private citizen, while his own firm’s billing records prove he was actually working for Hillary’s campaign.
