Whenever I think of Calvin "Mr. Personality" Coolidge I'm reminded of this picture of him. I saw it in my US History class in HS, and it stuck with me. It's hilarious, if you know anything about Coolidge. Let's just say, he wasn't the "life of the party" LOL

the CREEPIEST thing about the Wilson presidency was his wife, propping his half vegitated body up in the bed, refusing to let anyone see him, and instead of doing the right thing, pretty much lied to the country and acted as semi-de facto POTUS, in spite of the fact that she was, by all accounts, kind of a dim bulb.
 
Family and I just boarded a plane from Evansville to Charlotte. Driving down to Charleston SC for one night then going to Myrtle Beach area for one-week vacation. This is my first time flying since pre-pandemic.

Very nice that masks are not required while flying. A few people are wearing them and that’s ok if that makes them comfortable.

I was pleasantly surprised that the airport water fountains were working. We brought masks just in case I’m hoping / thinking we won’t be needing them.

Safe travels. If there is any WFIE news you need to know I will keep you updated...

^^^ That would be what the woke crowd would deem “cultural appropriation”.

Sounds like Biden’s campaign.

Ditto on the safe travels...and have a good vacation.
The Mrs is coming home from Seattle today. She's flown a few times since the mask mandate was dropped. Says it's much, much better. Duh?
 
No... you aren't listening. There were states that allowed votes contrary to the laws their states had set up. They did it on emergency authority which isn't constitutional for elections.
But they’ve audited all of them! And the count is the same every time! It was a fair election!

Lol.

China is slowed, but nowhere near shut down. Also, China's semi-command economy will continue cranking out the widgets because that's what they do. There will be continuing shortages here and there, but demand will be slowing greatly as well to get supply and demand back to some semblance of equilibrium.
It is estimated that over 200 million people are locked in their homes with no way to get out of them without jail time.

the container ship problem we had off loading, has moved to china, but they can't load them. There are hundreds of cargo ships just parked out in the ocean waiting to even get a spot at a dock.
 
The scariest thing is that we could recover from Carter because we had a sound currency and didn’t have overwhelming debt.

How, exactly, do we recover from this disaster without crippling interest hikes to slow inflation, and tax increases to pay for debt?

Yea. He'll never admit an audit isn't the same thing as an investigation. Just recounting ballots does nothing if the votes should of never been counted and chain of custody was lost or signatures don't match or if they voted in other states.... all things that have been proven.
 
The courts upheld the challenges to that. Judges decide constitutionality, not you. Ergo, constitutional even if F-ed Up. You & Trump need to get over it - seriously - or it will hurt all of you. But do get some new judges - constitutionally.

If Roe v. Wade is overturned, who decides that? You?
The constitution says state legislatures set rules for presidential elections. If a governor changed the rules without the legislature voting on it.... Is it constitutional?

And I agree we aren't going to change it but pretending it didn't happen is a sure fire way to get the same thing or worse going forward.

Reagan raised interest rates to around 18% to stop the inflation. This current fed is doing 1/4 point hikes every few months... They aren't serious about stopping inflation because they are Keynesian economist and don't believe inflation is bad.
 
Do you ever look at GDPNow? Think I posted it a month or so ago. Used to be affiliated with the Atlanta Fed, but now independent. Was surprised to see this morning that they have it...as of now....at 2.4%.
I've followed them for years, and they are pretty accurate.

I havent looked at it but thanks for the tip.

SHOCKING that its at a positive number...
 
God damn republican pedos infesting DC. they are also investigating him for using his campaign funds to pay for his little girls.

Gaetz—the Trump-loving, Fox News-grinning, 38-year-old Florida Republican—has a less-than-sterling reputation among his congressional colleagues. More than a half-dozen lawmakers have spoken to these reporters about his love of alcohol and illegal drugs, as well as his proclivity for younger women. It’s well-known among Republican lawmakers that Gaetz was dating a college student—one over the age of consent—in 2018. She came to Washington as an intern.

In response to these allegations and a question about whether he had ever had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old while in Congress, Gaetz told The Daily Beast late Wednesday night:

“The last time I had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old, I was 17. As for the Hill, I know I have many enemies and few friends. My support generally lies outside of Washington, D.C., and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

As for his few friends in Washington, The Daily Beast found that to be true. One former GOP staffer said Wednesday that their office had an informal rule to not allow their member to appear next to Gaetz during TV hits, fearful of the inevitable scandal that would come out one day.

My poor, deluded Trump hating friends and family insist that this inflation is on Trump.

Inflation, almost non-existent during the entirety of his 4 year term, and then "poof!" magically it kicks in after he's out of office. There is no reasoning with these people.
Lol..it all started when Democrats passed a covid relief (in name only) bill and didn't bother figuring out how to pay for it.

Amd of its Trumps fault then why did democrats and the media go through this whole cycle of inflation isn't real, then it's transitory, then it's actually good, etc
 
Sad the US has to have the military fly formula in bc of a govt agencies nonsense then an adnin that ignored it for months... @jameslee32 claims it's Trumps fault tho, bc Canada has it instead of focusing on why our domestic production is gone.

They were John mccain conservative. The pm was actually labor for years. He is conservative as long as the media and labor party don't get too mad at him then he just rolls over and gives them what they want.
