Musk has revealed that the DOGE will not make any cuts to Social Security or Medicare, two programs whose recipients have been paying into all their working lives.

Senior citizens who have paid into their pensions all their working lives deserve to get what they were promised. Migrants who are parasites and moochers don't deserve a darn thing from the taxpayers. They should be totally cut off from taxpayer paid benefits here and in Europe. That would stop a lot of them from even coming.

This congressional report had the China-dominated World Health Organization pegged correctly. President Trump needs to cut off US contributions and get us out of that WHO mousetrap.

What is maddening is Biden doling out money like a drunken sailor on his way out the door. He just promised a billion to Africa for natural disaster relief when his FEMA leadership has been missing in action on hurricane relief at home. Congress did not approve that Africa money. Shortly before that he promised $5 BIllion to prop up a failing EV company that instead should have been put out of everyone's misery in bankruptcy. He pledged more billions at the recent UN climate conference, and all of this without asking Congress. Biden is also doling out billions to climate alarmist organizations. I hope Trump is able to get all that money back.

Dale Folwell has been a great State Treasurer and would have made a great governor. That Briner is anti-Folwell tells you everything you need to know about him. He is as phony as a three dollar bill and is nothing but a Democrat in false Republican clothing.

Here is what the IRS whistleblowers had to say:
“President Biden has the power to put his thumb on the scales of justice for his son, but at least he had to do it with a pardon explicitly for all the world to see rather than his political appointees doing it secretly behind the scenes. Either way it is a sad day for law abiding taxpayers to witness this special privilege for the powerful.”

The corrupt Biden / Garland DOJ tried to make this case go away completely. First, they deliberately let the statute of limitations run out on the tax charges for the time Hunter was operating in Ukraine, which would have implicated Joe. Then they tried to do a sweatheart plea deal to slap Hunter on the wrist with no jail time for a minor charge and dismiss everything else, but fortunately a federal judge refused to go along with that miscarriage of justice.

The Hunter Biden charade illustrates why it is essential for President Trump to appint strong people to clean up the cesspool of Biden / Democrat political hacks at DOJ, FBI, and other agencies.

The utter corruption of Big Tech censorship is illustrated by the way they colluded with the MSM to throw the 2020 presidential election by actively suppressing the true story on the Hunter Biden laptop. This was done entirely for political purposes and according to polling data changed the outcome of the election. This should never be allowed to happen again. Our country has suffered a lot of misery as a result. Those who censor information like that need to go to prison for a long, long, long time, Censorship is un-American and it should be severely punished.

Benjamin Franklin wrote that "politicians, like diapers, should be changed often, and for the same reason". These totalitarian German politicianss would probably jail him for that, but it is clear that they are very full diapers and badly need changing.

Hurricanes can take out electric power temporarily by taking out the electric transmission lines, but those can be restored reasonably quickly. Conventional power is much more robust. Coal, oil, gas, and nuclear power plants do not go down and are there to supply power when the lines get put back up. The left is trying to make our electric grid much more vulnerable to hurricanes by switchin to power sources, wind and solar, that are extremely vulnernable to the powers of a hurricane. Thousands of solar panels and dozens of wind turbines were damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Helene. They take a lot longer to replace, many months, than the power lines. The more dependant our electric grid gets on wind and solar, the more vulnerable we are to long term, months long, blackouts from hurricanes.

"Climate change" or "global warming" is another red herring of the globalists.

The CEO of Blackrock, Larry Fink, really lives up to his last name. He is a total globalist, a regular at the WEF confabs at Davos, and uses the money entrusted to his firm to do their bidding, advancing their agenda. The anti-coal crusade is costing electric ratepayers a bundle, and hopefully this lawsuits by the states will make Blackrock and these other sleazy firms pay up and reimburse electric ratepayers for our excessive bills.

George Washington freed all of his slaves in his will, a process called manumission. It was fairly common, usually focused on slaves who has earned particular favor, but sometimes as with Washington, applied to all slaves owned at death. That is a large part of the reason why there were more free blacks in the South than in the north at the time of the War Between the States.

No, Bobbie, what Will presents is actual science, unlike the self serving science fiction of the climate alarmists.

I see that the Third World is trying to shake down western countries for $300 Billon at the UN climate conference. Argentina's Libertarian president Millei bailed out of that conference and he is expected to soon bail out of the Paris Climate Accords, too. Good for him. Trump needs to do the same with US involvment in these scams.

It seems to me that it would be efficient and cost effective for the school board to maintain a list of the email addresses of those who want to receive notices and full agendas, and then someone at the central office could hit a button, say a week before the meeting, to send notices to those people.

You have it ass backwards on who is buying the "science" on the climate debate, LIttle Bobbie. It is those who push the climate alarmist mantra for their own political purposes who have put their money into pushing this "science".

It began with the publication of that article on this old and discredited theory in the British magazine "The New Scientist". Some of Margaret Thatcher's team recognized the political usefulness of this theory to her battles with the arab oil sheiks and the militant coal miners union, so they dumped a wad of government money into "research" to promote the global warming through CO2 theory, the first government or any entity to do so. The scientists who first jumped on this money were not the big reputable institutions like Oxford or Cambridge, but instead money hungry minor univerisities like the obscure University of East Anglia. That is why the UK's main climate research center today is still at the University of East Anglia instead of Oxford or Cambridge. The Thatcher government's promotion of this obscure and discredited theory was entirely for political purposes.

Then came the globalists in the form of the UN. They saw the potential to expand the UN's power and influence by promoting this theory and they jumped into it big time.

What has corrupted climate science is government money spent with political objectives in mind, first by Thatcher and more recently by the globalists.

The past president and former prime minister of the Czech Republic, Dr. Vaclav Klaus hit the nail on the head when he called climate alarmism "a budding totalitarian ideology that is the greatest threat to freedom, democracy, and prosperity in the world today."

The parade of prominent scientists who debunk the global warming / climate change narrative in the British TV documentary "The Great Global Warming Swindle" which was broadcast nationally in the UK on Channel 4 explain clearly why "fossil fuel emissions" have nothing to do with climate.

The facts are here: www.youtube.com

Following junk science, or should we say politicized science is what make YOU an idiot, Bolshevik Bob. The CO2 climate narrative does not fit the Earth's known climate history, so what idiot who does not have something to gain would rationally think it would fit with our climate future? The CO2 climate theory was concocted in the 1890s by a Swedish physicist but was discredited and forgotten until a British magazine did an article about 1970 mentioning the old theory and it caught the eye of two groups who decided the theory would be useful to them politically so they promoted it.

As to cults, Bobbie, you are a member of the biggest doomsday cult in history, climate alarmisn, also known as Climate Scientology.

As to clean records, the DOJ found nothing on Gaetz they could pursue although they have loved to have found something. Ditto, the police as to the claim against Hegseth, although they were not the political hatchet types like the DOJ. Both men have been exonerated by law enforcement which did not find anything to charge either with.

Now Biden Secretary of State, Tony Blinken was outed as the organizer of one of the biggest scams in recent political history, the coverup of the Hunter Biden laptop story. Did Biden make him resign when he was found out? Heck no. That political chicanery stole an election and there were no consequences to him.

Appointees should also be vetted on ability to do the job, which both Gaetz and Hegseth have been. Biden's appointee as Chairman of the Council of Economics, however, was woefully unqualified, having no training in economics, his degrees being in music and sociology. We saw what happened to our economy following his advice.

Maybe some in the leftwing media have wised up. MSNBC's legal analyst called the Bondi nomination "a dangerous and effective choice" - dangerous to the left, of course.

CNN's legal analyst was even more explicit:
"Pam Bondi is, without a question, qualified to be Attorney General. She's been a prosecutor for 20 years in Florida. For 8 of those, she was the Attorney General of the state. That's a very big, very complicated job‚ and that level of experience is on par with, or better than most United States Attorneys General that we've seen over the past 50 years or so."

McConnell has regularly kneecapped Republican efforts to stop Democrat big spending bills. He is a willing and frequent accessory to Democrat Big Spending. He was also an accessory in passing Obamacare. Expelling him from the Republican caucus would be a good move.

Illegal aliens are welfare deadbeats and a drain on the economy. They are costing our taxpayers many billions of dollars, and it will be a huge economic benefit when they are gone. I have never seen it tallied by percentage in the US, probably because each state runs its own welfare department, but we are not likely different from Germany where 62% of welfare recipients are illegal aliens.

Illegal aliens presence also runs up the costs of lots of other things like medical care, rents, and auto insurance for American citizens.

Wind and solar are not only weather dependant as to whether they even produce any electricity, but they are also very vulnerable to destruction by bad weather. The recent hurricanes destroyed thousands of solar panels and damaged dozens of wind turbines. A hail storm destroyed one of the largest solar farms in the country earlier this year.

This is not a reliable way to make electricity.

Tillis, along with McConnell, gave their votes to allow Biden to pass his phony "infrastructure" bill without having to use their "reconciliation" slot which avoids cloture rules. That was what allowed Biden to keep that reconciliation slot to use to ram through his "Inflation Reduction Act" which was really a big chunk of the Green New Deal, and increased rather than reduced inflation. Tillis is an absolute scoundrel and a traitor. He needs to be primaried and defeeated in 2026.

It would appear that Josef Goebbels and Lord Haw Haw, as well as the faceless propagandists at Pravda of the Stalin era are the role models for America's corporate media, AKA the alphabet media. MSM should stand for Marxist Socialist Media. I think these phonies lost the last ounce of credibility and trust that anyone had in them this election. They should NEVER be allowed to run presidential debates ever again.

Solar is just as bad. It stops producing every night with reducing production in late afternoon and early morning. Other weatehr conditions like rain, clouds, snow, frost, fog, etc. also reduce or eliminate power production from solar. Wind and solar are indeed expensive and unreliable.

Power prices in wind and solar obsessed Germany are the highest in the world and that is causing an upsurge in bankruptcies of German companies, as well as German companies moving abroad. Wind and solar are a sure way to kill an economy.

This is even more attrocious than what is done in the US. Many US weather stations that were once at least semi-rural are in areas that have been urbanized with lots of concrete and asphalt around them. Those are the ones that show increases, not the ones in areas that are still rural. It is a chnnge in their surroundings, not in the climate, that sends terperature recordings higher. But it does not surprise me that they have been caught just making it up.

Commented on Election Results

I expect Trump will move quickly to take us out of those ridiculous Paris Climate Accords. This time, I hope he does it by submitting it to the Senate as a treaty, and when it fails to get two thirds, that would keep any future Democrat from just rejoining the scheme.

"One of ours" because the nut who wants to shoot a Republican legislator also says he doesn't think a woman should be president? BS, Little Bobbie! You call anybody you don't like "MAGA". That would be like me calling you and all of your kind "commie". You try to paint both traditional conservatives and populist conservatives with a broad brush. Our two factions may disagree on some things, but we are united that Donald Trump is light years better than the cackling clown Harris for president. In fact, our country is probably not able to be saved with another four years of the cackling clown.

You, Little Bobbie, are the one who makes broad statements here without backing them up.

That is a good ad comparing Trump and Harris on the economy. Anyone who has been to a grocery store or gas station knows that the Democrats have really screwed up the ecomony, and price controls!!!! Kamala's plan there is absolute nuts. Every country that has tried that with food has ended up with rationing and bread lines. Grocery store profit margins are less than 2%. That is NOT price gouging. It is the Bide-Harris globalist energy policies that have driven up food prices and a lot else.

It is telling that even Bill Clinton, while out campaigning for Harris, admitted that the economy was better under Trump.
