Treasury Dept says Top 1% avoid paying $163b in taxes every year
Wednesday Sep 08, 2021
Wednesday Sep 08, 2021
If you include the top 1% as well as other wealthy Americans the amount of tax avoidance is around $600b a year which is amazing. You can't run any business if you don't collect your revenue and the Gov't is no different. Republicans have purposefully avoided letting the IRS enforce collecting what is owed to the point that the IRS doesn't even have the staff necessary to decipher complicated returns that the wealthy and corporations are filing. It doesn't make sense to complain about deficits and not empower the IRS to simply collect what is owed by ensuring the wealthy are paying their fair share in taxes..

Howard Stern has an excellent point in that we can't get back to normal and enjoy OUR freedoms while you have these people wandering around who don't choose to take the vaccine..

Wrong again: Franklin Graham ”Democrats incentivize people not to work”
Monday Sep 06, 2021
Monday Sep 06, 2021
Franklin Graham is trying to mix politics and religion again in trying to claim that Democrats incentivize people not to work and it doesn't end well.. in reality, and according to the WAPO, "The 20 states that reduced benefits in June had the same pace of hiring as the mostly Democrat-led states that kept the extra $300-a-week unemployment payments in place".. the data speaks for itself..
You can't expect Republicans, like Franklin Graham, to be able to provide a solution that makes sense if they can't even see what's really going on in this economy right now.. what Republicans propose is more of a continuation of the trickle-down economic experiment that simply has not worked for the past 50 years, since Ronald Reagan.. and we know that because we're living it!

The Covid anti-science strategy is a failure that endangers schools
Saturday Sep 04, 2021
Saturday Sep 04, 2021
At the risk of sounding like Captain Obvious here folks, schools are starting to re-open and many parents continue to fight mask mandates. The point is that if schools can't operate without Covid, they won't be in operation at all.. I blame leaders like Governor Ron Desantis for empowering people to make a big deal out of mask mandates as if it's a major curtailment of their liberties and freedom.. it's not.
When you look at all of the resistance there is against vaccinations, when you look at all of their crazy strategies of ignoring Doctors' advice, taking crazy cures-- that "strategy" if you can even call it that isn't working and we know that because 90% of the people in hospitals are the unvaccinated..

Roe v. Wade has been subjugated by the Supreme Court. What can we do?

As we know, Texas just passed one of the most restrictive abortion laws in the United States.. by denying women an abortion after six weeks of pregnancy. By way of illustration, here is how big a fetus is after six weeks. Many women may not even know that they are pregnant!
The Texas law also has a provision that allows anyone in Texas sue anyone "aiding and abetting" abortions after the six week mark..
But what can we do?.....

Trump surrendered to the Taliban when he signed the ‘2020 Peace Agreement‘
Thursday Sep 02, 2021
Thursday Sep 02, 2021
When Donald Trump and Mike Pompeo constructed the Doha Peace Agreement back in 2020 without the Afghanistan Government at the negotiating table, wherein Trump demanded that the Afghanistan Government release 5000 'prisoners' and then told Afghan to keep on fighting and then subsequently drew down American troops to just 2500 troops- that's when Afghanistan was lost. Who negotiates with the Taliban, the enemy of Afghanistan, to have Afghanistan release 5000 Taliban prisoners and then turns around and tells the Afghans to keep fighting the Taliban? Donald Trump did, the 'great' negotiator.. that's when we lost Afghanistan folks, when that so-called 'Doha Peace Agreement' was signed. That's when the Afghan army crumbled, that's when they were demoralized and the damage of that agreement spread like a disease into the timeframe of 7/23/2021 when Joe Biden had his last call with then president Ghani of Afghanistan. Reuters has leaked audio from that call and we'll discuss what Trump did and how Ghani made a cry for help in that call -- but it was far too late, the damage had already been done by Trump when he signed the Doha surrender back in 2/2020.

The USA has just been 'gamed’ by Russia in Afghanistan
Tuesday Aug 17, 2021
Tuesday Aug 17, 2021
Remember the story where "a Russian embassy employee" was a witness to Ex- Afghan president Ghani fled the country in a helicopter loaded with so much cash he couldn't fit it all in? Well, that's right out of the Russian playbook folks.. Let's look at how much Russia wanted the US out of Afghanistan and quite possibly what they did to make that a reality..

So today Joe Biden gave a speech on Afghanistan, it was much of the same where Joe Biden said that if we were there one year, 5 or ten more years that it would not have mattered. He mentioned we achieved the goal of removing Osama Bin Laden and that we accomplished that mission.. but think about this though.. with 2500 troops and the Afghan army (as it is) we controlled the whole country. There was limited ability for the Taliban to effectuate their terrorist agenda with just 2500 troops. But in any case, this next story lends character to the whole situation and is not something that Joe Biden can opine about.
Then we heard that up to 30k Afghani refugees will be resettled in the USA and guess who is concerned that this will 'move the needle' on our American 'whiteness'? Why Charlie Kirk, the white supremacist, of course..

DeSantis creates chaos amplifying anti-mask populism for political gain
Wednesday Aug 11, 2021
Wednesday Aug 11, 2021
Do you really think people like Ron DeSantis in Florida or Governor Abbott in Texas along with all the other usual suspects like Rand Paul really understand how much chaos they are creating and how much harder they are making things for schools around the country that are trying to open safely for kids? And by safely, I mean basis what Covid-19 is doing in their own back yards.. Take a look at what's going on in Franklin TN where medical professionals are being targeted by an angry mob ahead of testifying at school board meeting..
DeSantis always likes to brag that he did better that Newsom in CA but look at this, it's really not true..
DeSantis is so out-of-touch with what's going on in Florida with respect to Covis-19 that he didn't know that the State Dep't of Health requested ventilators from the Federal Gov't! and, by the way, why WOULD the State Health Dep't involve DeSantis? They're not crazy, he wouldn't be any help and they really need the ventilators..
