Well Biden is the one who is trying pin it on his predecessor, so why not? It's like how he tries to take credit for creating the jobs that people went back to after the end of the covid lockdown. The man is a serial liar and should be held accountable.

Slinging blame is easy. The hard part is finding someone who will take responsibility. I look at it as a change of command it’s now this administration's responsibility.

[Rockstar]

So it looks like June 27th is the day for the 1st big debate. Both ought to submit to a drug test beforehand. Bet they’d be disqualified.

[em2nought]

Of course Sleepy Joe is responsible for inflation. Green new raw deal for the USA. Biden and his Davos buddies. Nothing that dude does is designed to benefit the average citizen in the USA. He doesn't even seem to care about voters so what might that tell you?

You do know, Joey and the rest of the country club, Have denied RFK secret service protection. In his run for President.

Today, Trump's defense has rested, and the big strong man will once again chicken out and not testify.

And on another note, Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. has released their SEC Form 10Q showing earnings of $700,000.00 and loss of $327,000,000.00. I wonder how this will look in three months when the lock is lifted, and Trump dumps all his shares for cash and runs away.

Plus, the "anywhere, anytime, anyplace" man is already having his media groupies walk back on the statement and complaining like the nest of Karen snowflakes they all are.

Here's the 10Q form.

And why should he? Defendants only testify when it looks like they might lose and that doesn't seem to be the case with such a weak and flawed prosecution as your side has put on here.

It's just like your boy old Joe finally agreeing to have a debate Trump (with many conditions). We both know he wouldn't dare leave his basement if his campaign wasn't in major trouble.

How are you going to deal with it when Trump gets back in the oval office again?

So The US State Department sent its condolences to the Islamic regime of Iran after the death of Ebrahim Raisi, otherwise known as "The Butcher of Tehran."

Wow, Joe Biden is really worried about losing Michigan kisses Irans arse for personal political gain


If the Biden administration is looking to offer sincere condolences I suggest they start with the families of US service members killed by Iranian terrorists, their surrogates, and equipment provided.

They can also offer their condolences to the Iranian people mourning the execution, imprisonment, torture, rape and abuse of family members who suffered under Raisi’s tenure.

Now compare the above Biden Build Back Better BS to to a time when we stood for something. Before some weak senile old man democrat got into office. Below is how we used to view murderous governments

WILLIAM J. CLINTON

42nd President of the United States: 1993 ‐ 2001
Statement on the Death of Pol Pot

April 16, 1998
The death of Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot has again brought to international attention one of the most tragic chapters of inhumanity in the twentieth century. Between 1975 and 1979, Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge followers transformed Cambodia into the killing fields, causing the death of an estimated 2 million of their countrymen in a brutal attempt to transform Cambodian society.

Although the opportunity to hold Pol Pot accountable for his monstrous crimes appears to have passed, senior Khmer Rouge, who exercised leadership from 1975 to 1979, are still at large and share responsibility for the monstrous human rights abuses committed during this period. We must not permit the death of the most notorious of the Khmer Rouge leaders to deter us from the equally important task of bringing these others to justice. And equally, we must renew our determination to prevent such atrocities from occurring in the future.

Now is a time to remember the victims of Pol Pot's murderous reign of terror and to underscore our determination to help the Cambodian people achieve a lasting peace based on respect for basic human rights and democratic principles.

Never vote for anyone who desires to hold political office. If you insist on voting, which in my opinion invokes 2 John 1:11, use your write-in vote and vote for someone who has no interest in becoming involved in politics.

Filling public offices should be done by conscription lottery, like the draft.

"You're looking glum today, what's the matter?"

"I got a notice from the draft board. I have to be president for the next four years!"

Personally, I'd go AWOL. I'd desert so fast it would make their heads spin. When it comes to things like that, I'm with Hazel from John Steinbeck's "Cannery Row".

All political parties look at the voting populace and think to themselves, "Never give a sucker an even break."

He can get a prison verdict-This does not prevent him from being elected as your next President.

In this ongoing trial I think he will get a fine nothing more.

A fine sure beats selling out for votes by mourning the lose of a murderer like the Butcher of Tehran.

At least Brandon has a low down dirty reason for sending condolences to Iran over "The Butcher of Tehran", Brandon's buddies at the UN and NATO are taking a moment of silence, and sending their condolences because it's how they genuinely feel about the guy apparently.

The US government debt brake is not holding. Congress has already adjusted the borrowing limit 78 times since 1960. 49 times under Republican presidents and 29 times under Democratic presidents. No matter who is in power: Enough is never enough, which is why the American state as a whole had to raise one trillion dollars for interest payments for the first time in 2023.

Citizens are no better than their state. Savings reached an all-time low in 2023 and credit card debt reached an all-time high. The upturn in the economy - driven by government and private borrowing - is the best upturn money can buy.
