I can't agree with the quote you posted from JD Vance "As Senator JD Vance put it, why support a military alliance that isn’t going to be pro-free speech? Isn’t it time America used that same leverage to defend our most fundamental freedom?" Unless it's taken out of context, this statement implies we should be nation building. I disagree. Haven't we spent enough blood and treasure trying to make the rest of the world into the US? Canada, the UK, France, and most other countries in the world do not have free speech as depicted in the 1st Amendment. If those countries wanted it, they'd vote for it.

It's not our job to promote our style of government, economy, or anything else uniquely American elsewhere in the world.

Trump lost me with the Palantir thing, being Israel's lackey, furthering war in Ukraine, shilling for pharma, not making public the many long-buried files, and much more going against his campaign hype.

But, betraying Massie has gone way too far. If there is a good guy in DC, it is him. Votes straight Constitution. What's worse, is Trump smeared him, like he smears others that don't dance on the end of his string. Uses foul language, and immature schoolyard insults. Maybe he is better suited going back to his TV show.

One thing you could always count on from congress is that the name they give their bills will always be opposite of what is really in them. Never thought we'd end up getting the same from Trump, but the BBB is just that. Big Bohunkus Bomb.

Trump and RFK, Jr. have let us down hugely by their failure to shut down the mRNA poisons and failure to cancel the PREP Act (refer to Sasha Latypova, Debbie Lerman, Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Pierre Kory - a long list of experts). We should give credit where it’s due and thank Trump and RFK, Jr. for the good things they’ve done, but they need to explain why they have failed us on these two critical issues - it’s not a grey issue when you look at the deaths and injuries that are still going on around the world because of their inaction, it’s criminal madness.

Oh, grow up. Trump has been President for FIVE MONTHS. RFKJ was confirmed only MONTHS AGO.

You’re silly and childish impatience is so like a toddler laying in the floor in the toy section and screaming because he can’t have that toy, and his birthday is 2 days away.

It also makes you sound stupid.

I provided references that anyone can refer to and decide for themselves. You replied with a personal attack. That’s the kind of response I frequently got early in 2020 when I shared info warning about the injections and a larger global agenda.

One of the big controversies is the sickcare system and why we won't keep paying for this. The US has some of the worst outcomes and the lowest life expectancies on Planet Earth. Maybe, just maybe it has to do with diets, exercise, the pill-popping sickcare that passes for healthcare in the US? I've seen case after case of people who are kept drugged up, subject to invasive surgeries leaving them disabled, propped up to keep them alive until their dying breath with whopping costs to the US financial system. Here's an innovative thought--why not try alternative non-quack care and pay for it? I'm sure the screeches from Pharma will be overwhelming, but that's the unfortunate reality in 2025, with this despicable sickcare system creating miserable lives for individuals and their entire families! I have a friend with back and cardio issues who went to India for Ayurvedic clinic care and he felt worlds better afterwards. $3K a month for Ayurvedic with natural healing as the focus vs. in many cases thousands a month for miserable outcomes.

Massie is a big disappointment. Hypocrisy at its finest. Was he not part of accepting debt in the past with fake prom8ses? No he decides to plsy grandstanding hardball when we need to spend money to fix the mess the derp state put us in? Now is not the time to be non MAGA. The country will make up the debt much faster now with smart investments and stopping waste fraud and abuse in decades past. Its a temporary debt, unlike money laundering and filling the grifters pockets.

Nothing personal, my friend - I don't watch any TV news but I listen to the radio - back and forth between fox news and pbs, no less (ha!) while attempting to avoid the commercials.

My point is that they're both jaded - one way or the other and they both lie as easy as they breathe - wake up!

Donnie, is that you? The American Conservative Union has given Rand Paul a lifetime conservative rating of 96% and the Conservative Review gave him a 92% score. CPAC has Thomas Massie with at lifetime rating of 92%. I would say neither is a Demorat in sheep's clothing.

Cute how you use anonymous sources to trigger the goitards with Israel being behind the push when it's Trump and him and all of Kentucky are retarded between him and the appalling pauls

Anonymous sources say that one of the big signs of a failed Messiah is needing to return a second time to accomplish what wasn't accomplished the first and anonymous sources says that the reason it's called the crucifixion is if it was real it would be called the crucifact.

Anonymous sources say that Massey is a secret Muslim with a barn full of goats that he capitulates to as he copulates in the name of Islam.

Anonymous sources say that crucifixionist Marjorie Taylor green is an adulterous ho openly having a adulterous relationship while being married, some people say that's hypocrisy other people say it's typical crucifixionist, with their 30,000 variations on derangement it's nice that the divisive ones get elected on the Republican side to spoil things forever more and make normal folks think that all Republicans are freaky crucifixionist who hate others and live with hypocrisy and sanctimony. Dismal time for the anti-trump Republicans indeed, they'll be swept off as the winning keeps surpassing expectations for those who voted for Trump and his agenda which from day one included no nukes for Iran but the goitards of Kentucky and Colorado have conniptions due to their Jew derangement syndromes...

Anonymous sources say that both of them are going to join the squad and the Democrats

Remember when Tucker said we were going to lose thousands and be mired in a forever war?

We owe President Trump much. But that doesn't mean he cannot be wrong sometimes. IMHO, We need to cut the budget with a machete, not a butter knife! And certainly not raise it! If this was a Demorat President wanting to do this, we would be screaming bloody murder. My biggest problem is a Trillion dollars going to the Defense Dept. when they seem not to care if they ever pass an audit. Also, I don't see a real and immediate threat. People may say China is, but China's biggest threat by far is having a billion Chinese unemployed if we did go to war with them. By being such big consumers of Chinese goods, we protect ourselves with buying power vs any missiles or satellites.

As far as the Canadian Government backing down on the Big internet tech companies, as a Canadian I think it's a good thing Trump did that. The Canadian federal liberal government was using the revenue to prop up our Lying Biased Canadian Mainstream Media Propaganda machines who are going broke because nobody wants to listen to their Lies and Omission of the Truth except Losers who believe anything they are told to believe. Thumbs Up for Trump!👍

P = (M * V) / Y => Δ P = Δ M + Δ V - Δ Y, where P is Aggregate Price, M is Money Supply Level, V is Velocity of M (make note of this relationship!), and Y is Total Purchases (aka GNP), '=>' means 'implies' and Δ means 'change in'. ΔP is called Inflation!

Interest Rate is assumed within M and V. Lower Interest Rates should create more loans increasing Money Supply which also will increase Velocity as a dollar turns over more on deals and subsequent spending. As a money unit devalues Velocity usually increases materially because buyers don't want to hold a money unit that is devaluing. The best example is Germany's Weimer Republic in the 1920s when people were using wheel barrels to move devalued money and even used that money as fuel for the home fireplace.

Stagflation is when BigGov prints money but GDP/GNP stays flat or contracts. It was thought that printing money would always increase economic activity post Bretton Woods Gold Standard 1945 to 1971 (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bretton_Woods_system ) when America went into Stagflation. Milton Friedman won a noble prize in economics for his monetary work. One reason for the failure of money printing is that after awhile the new fiat money is mostly used to pay debt and bad debt (bailouts). Sounds like the USA today!

Tricky Dick Nixon yanked the $ off its Gold Peg August 1971 and ever since inflation has eaten away the $'s value. In fact, since The Fed was founded in 1913 that $ is worth about one cent today.

How about we let Putin keep those eastern areas.

THEN DIVIDE UP what's left of Ukraine, part to Poland, and part to other neighbors [Slovakia and Hungary] who are already in NATO [1999 and 2004 so not recent irritants to Putin]...

Then

---all former Ukrainians who wanted into NATO will have their wish

AND

--- all those NATO peoples are NOT GOVERNED by INSANE NEO NAZIS so wouldn't that satisfy the Russo-wanna-bes and PUTIN too..???

And we'd be done with Zelenskii, lol

TTYL.
