Which is it, Village Idiot?

Are corporations price gouging, and is that why we're at record stock market numbers?

So, you're rooting for the price gouging you bitch about, so you can gloat the markets are up?

Fvuckkng Idiot.
Blaming me. Blaming Biden. Old man shouting at clouds.
If the companies charge more than people can afford, then they won't buy the products. Supply/Demand works in America.
If you want Biden to control prices, then you are a communist...not a free market capitalist.
If you want to be mad at me for supporting free market capitalism and a President that believes in the peaceful transfer of power then have at it.
You can vote for the dude that incites attacks against his own Capitol, threatens to hang generals, did nothing to stop attempted attacks against his VP, and who is sitting in court hearing about how a porn star spanked him on the ass with a rolled up magazine while his wife was pregnant...
That's on you.
 
They aren't. Who was talking about communism?

Waste Report Wrap Up

Every Wednesday, I highlight an area of government waste uncovered by my team and me. This past week, I shined a light on the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) which spent $6 million to promote tourism in Egypt.

You can read more about USAID’s Egyptian tourism and other waste that your government spent your hard earned tax dollars on HERE.


$6mm isnt much... but the question has to be asked: "WHY?" Who is benefitting?

From Massie's newsletter:

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has introduced a resolution to remove Mike Johnson from his position as Speaker of the House. I am a cosponsor of the legislation.

We recently held a press conference to discuss the need for Speaker Johnson's removal. I have embedded the video of this event above and I encourage you to watch it.

As Speaker, Mike Johnson has continually enlisted a majority of House Democrats to override House Republicans. He did this to:

1) Pass an omnibus spending bill that spends more money than Pelosi did

2) Reauthorize warrantless spying on Americans; further, he cast the deciding vote to defeat the warrant requirement sought by House conservatives

3) Send $60 billion to Ukraine

Together, Speaker Johnson and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries have revealed the existence of the Uniparty that currently governs Washington, D.C. With this poor record, it comes as no surprise that House Democratic Leadership recently endorsed Speaker Johnson in writing.

Why does Hakeem Jeffries want Mike Johnson as Speaker? Because the Democrats want:

  • No action taken on the border
  • No conservative policy victories
  • More money for Ukraine
  • A Democratic House majority
  • An expanded Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation
  • No budget cuts
  • President Trump to lose in November
They know that the uninspiring Mike Johnson can deliver all of these things if he remains as Speaker.

So sick of excusing blatant betrayal as "uninspiring" or "stupid" or "ignorant." We need people in office that will call it what it is. Johnson has sold out conservatives AND constitutional moderates. Someone bought this guy and did so well before they put him in the position.

I tend to think he is being blackmailed, but either way, the guy has no spine and is simply another parasite in the DC swamp.

I think that's the whole point of this weekly report he puts out. All of those little wasteful expenditures for nonsense that benefits noone eventually add up to a crapton of wasteful nonsense.

Does that $6 mil fund vacations to Egypt for average Americans? if not, then it's a waste.
 
Great idea, but now we'll need a new America First candidate. Too many people inside and outside of this country making money off of what the cartels are doing. Govt and non-govt. It's something you just DO, as a president. It's not something you say. His mouth has definitely cost him this time
Yeah, not smart to point that out. it could have been stated more diplomatically, such as "I will assemble a task force (i.e. Seal team six) to tackle the problems of drug Cartels pushing dangerous drugs across our Borders" (i.e. clandestine missions to kill Cartel Leaders)
 
I'm really torn with him. I think he is trolling. Being outrageous. I say that because we are all clearly intelligent or we wouldn't be posting in this forum....but some of the shit he posts is just The View level ignorant and more than just spin. He cannot be that dumb...can he?

Afraid he is. Look at his boasting about his job as a glorified babysitter.

i’ve heard more than one conservative speak out against mtg and her efforts to oust the speaker. admittedly it comes at a bad time when the pubs should be focused on getting trump elected, but should johnson be given free reign to continue to bend a knee to the democrats?
i get the feeling that there are very few true hard line republicans in our governing body. i wish republicans had the resolve to stick together like the dems.
 
Don't care. I'm not cheating on my taxes. The only ones worried are the tax cheats. Are you worried?
Sambo I’ve had to read thru some of your posts about taxes. Sambo I’ve asked you nicely a few times to sit this one out but you refuse to in other posts. When it comes to taxes and especially litigation via vs IRS this is something we do everyday and it’s a damn nightmare for most, I would estimate 99%. Your understanding in tax litigation goes way beyond just going to federal court and then it’s over, it’s not. This lingers for years, it’s like a slow death for businesses and personal tax records individuals so I’ll ask again sit this one out 🍺

What worries me (and really it should not since Jeffries claim they run the house) is the democrats will gain majority with GOP retirements and such. That's their end game is to control all three branches, then look out if that happens.

Not saying you are wrong...but please enlighten me as to why someone who has followed the law and filed their taxes properly ends up in federal court years after the IRS audits them.
Was it your mistake as the tax preparer or lawyer? Did they lie or cheat on their taxes?
Did they make an honest mistake that can't be corrected?
I had a friend get audited and it just required a simple resubmission of better records/ forms and an amended tax form.
Really not being a smart azz. Just not seeing why it takes years to resolve an issue on your taxes if you are filing properly with proper documentation.
 
I thought Johnson would do much better, hence the much-earned definition of Johnson is a dick!
MTG is an idiot and the tiny minority of 11 Republicans in the House that sided with her sound a lot like some of the radicals on this site.

The characteristics include older than typical age, part-time attendance, being independent of parents, working full time while enrolled, having dependents, being a single parent, and being a recipient of a GED

I can't knock GED; I became a teenage father @ seventeen, got a cheap ass job only to see it was going nowhere. Got a GED, hired into one of the best manufactory companies in Louisville at the time at age 18. Went to tech school and from the eighties until I retired in 2006 at the age of fifty, I earned an average every year in the mid five to low six figures. So, it can be done and I'm living proof coming from a family of nothing to quickly being the black sheep because I was succeeding. Worked my ass off getting there but I did it. BTW, still married to the same sweetheart I fell in love with, very proud of that. 50 plus years
