Here's a list of President Biden's accomplishments.https://bluevirginia.us/2022/11/115-of-president-bidens-and-the-democrats-top-accomplishments-in-just-two-years


So what is the result of all the money being spent. Spending money is not the same thing as accomplishing the goal.

Improving America's infrastructure is a great accomplishment. Biden is getting it done.


What infrastructure accomplishments? That lots of money has been spent under the umbrella term "infrastructure" is not an accomplishment unless or until infrastructure has actually been built.

So Biden accomplished spending money earmarked for infrastructure while Trump's infrastructure policies included ensuring U.S. energy independence, safeguarding the cybersecurity of the national power grid and other critical infrastructure, locking China out of the U.S. fifth-generation Internet market, and rolling back regulations to ease the process of planning and construction. While there were no major infrastructure spending packages, some individual policies and projects were advanced piecemeal, especially in rural areas.

Compared to Biden's accomplishments. Often the money spent is counted as an accomplishment in and of itself. And in some cases the so called accomplishment was the opposit of what it was supposed to acheive. A good example is to combat inflation caused by too much spending he spent trillions more. The following list of accomplishments counts spending money and the intended result as the accomplishment. What the actual result was is left out.

Border Security gets a large portion of the spending bill. Isn't "border security" the topic Republicans keep shouting about being their top priority?


Many on the left seem to think if you spend more money you are accomplishing more. How and where will that money be spent? How much for retrining woke agendas? How much for green policies? How much for hand-outs to illegals? Just because more money is being spent does not mean the border will be more secure.

I believe the right to food is a basic human right. I applaud the Biden Administration's commitment to spur urgent action to end hunger and malnutrition and build more sustainable, equitable, and resilient food systems at home and abroad. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/09/23/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-commit-to-end-hunger-and-malnutrition-and-build-sustainable-resilient-food-systems/


And how has the government been infringing on people's "right" to eat? A right is something you have inately. Our constitution forbids our government from infringing on our rights. Taxpayers don't pay for people to exercise their rights. So if there is a inate right to food, our government must take a hands off approach and not restrict people exercise that right as they choose.

Yup....and after the CDC published that little 6% error (!!!), the actual number of deaths that resulted from Covid ONLY - with no other co-morbidities that could have been the true cause of death - was drastically reduced to around 70,000 deaths (meaning they lied, about approximately a million deaths that they called covid, but weren't actually covid!)

CDC's VAERS tried reporting vaccine deaths, but even with their own disclaimer, the reporting of vaccine deaths is skewed all over the place because first of all, the vaccine doesn't outright kill a person....it targets weaknesses in a person, such as heart, kidney and liver diseases or blood disorders, respiratory sickness and blood clots, and it is those reasons that are put on the death certificates - instead of the vaccine, which was the real cause of the deaths in most cases. Currently, VAERS is reporting 33,223 vaccine deaths and 61,430 permanent disabilities (people who need assistance to live) from the vaccine. But those numbers cannot be relied upon because of all the variables (such as hospitals not filling out VAERS forms or not filling them out correctly; Deaths where it is not clear what caused the death and autopsies were not performed to clarify the cause; and deaths that occurred in nursing homes that were attributed to old age and not the vaccine, etc.)

When I see a young 24-year-old kid collapse on a football field from cardiac arrest (different from a heart attack - and usually more fatal) when he had no health problems at all, or when I hear of a famous actress (Kirstie Alley) suddenly (within a few weeks) diagnosed with fatal "cancer" that she only had for a few weeks, and dies suddenly, and when I see all those people dropping dead in the news all over the world, I have to believe that non-famous people who are just living their lives but dying all of a sudden "for no reason at all", do NOT have the real reason for their deaths recorded anywhere. And the strange, long rubbery "clots" they are finding in autopsied bodies of people - and ONLY people who have been vaccinated - from embalmers and coroners ALL OVER THE WORLD, it's impossible not to see that something is killing people on a large scale!! (An interesting factoid: At Sen. Johnson's conference, Dr. Ryan Cole said he was told by hospital administrators to stop ordering autopsies for people who clearly are dying from the vaccine. And he said other doctors are telling him they have also had similar orders "from above").

AND THEY'RE STILL PUSHING THESE DRUGS ON PEOPLE!!! The Biden's "Christmas Message" was for everyone to get the Covid 19 vaccine!!! YUP....The president and first lady are telling Americans to STILL get EXPERIMENTAL drugs injected into their bodies for a virus that no longer exists. Viruses mutate every 10 or so hours. By now - two years later - the original Covid-19 virus has mutated into at least three other strains - all much weaker than the original strain....and they are STILL telling people to get what I can only call the ""kill shot". They have NOT changed the ingredients to meet the needs of the newer strains of this virus, they are just using the same old recipe that they started using in 2019.

And now, at the December 7, 2022 conference, that is now ON CONGRESSIONAL RECORD because it was a meeting held by Senator Ron Johnson, doctors are saying that THIS YEAR'S FLU SHOT IS NO DIFFERENT THAN THE COVID-19 VACCINATION SHOT.....

.....So if you get a flu shot this year, you are getting none other than the Covid "vaccine" shot!!!!

Here is the video of the Congressional hearing that Senator Ron Johnson held on December 7, 2022. He called it a "round table discussion", but it is actually recorded and included in the Congressional Records. It is three hours long, but I think if you start watching this, you won't be able to stop. There is a LOT of information from many experienced researchers, doctors, scientists and victims in this video and because it is on the record, which means that anyone who wants to bring suit against the government for crimes against humanity, there is already documentation and testimony available in Congress.

Thanks for the info.

As for the blood clots, there have always been two types of blood clots. One is made of platelets and broken blood vessels and the other is of fibrin. But these weird clots are made of spike proteins. The only people whose bodies' make spike proteins are those who got the mRNS which orders the body to make spike proteins. The idea was too force your immune system to make spike proteins so your immune system could learn to recognize them as an invasive threat. Whether your body would recognize something it created as an invader or not, there is no mechanism to STOP making spike proteins. Each time you get another shot you add more mRNA forcing your body to make more spike proteins. The stronger your immune system is, the more efficient it is in making the spike proteins.

Apparently Trump did not give his salary away in 2020, as it did not appear in his taxes. This according to The Wall St Journal and The Washington Post. Did Trump get $400,000 dollars for being president for 20 days?


His first two quarters he gave his full salary after taxes and the additional money it would take to bring the total to $100,000. (~$22,000 each quarter) The last two quarters are undocumented.

Do you fall in the under 80 IQ category?
https://news.yahoo.com/trump-tax-returns-dispute-white-231747455.html

In another report, Trump's 2020 tax return shows an Adjusted Gross Income of $4.8 Million. Billionaire Trump paid ZERO in taxes in 2020. For a Billionaire to brag about making a contribution of $400,000 each year while he was president, (except his final year 2020 when he paid ZERO in contributions) is pretty embarrassing. I wonder if slippery Trump included his presidential salary of $400,000 as part of his AGI in 2020.
Do you fall in the under 80 IQ category? br http... (show quote)


He didn't pay in some years because he pays alternative minimum tax. For example since 2005 he paid 70.8 million over 3 different alternative minimum tax payments. Instead of taking a refund in money, he asks the IRS to keep the overpay as a credit to use to cover his taxes in subsequent years. The exception was In 2008 due to business losses he sought a $70 million refund out of what he had previously paid which the IRS granted. What he owes in taxes on the myriad companies, many which are international and pay taxes in multiple countries, are so complex it could be easy for even expert accountants to mistake what is owed if paying in the year it is owed. Alternative minimum tax is a safer way to ensure meeting the tax requirements.

The IRS has audited him for years and has never found any tax fraud. If you know better than the IRS auditors, present the evidence to the IRS or FBI.

As for his salary donations, he donated his entire salary after taxes were taken out and added from his own money to bring the donation to the pre-taxed amount. So each quarter $22,000 were taken out in taxes but he gave $100,000. This means that if you count what he gave beyond his salary up until his last known donation in July 2020, was more than $300,000. This is greater than his salary in the last 2 quarters. But even if he had not given beyond his salary, there was no law or even tradition saying he must donate any of his salaries. Only 2 other presidents donated any of their salaries. You act like he did something felonious by possibly donating his last 2 quarters. Actually we don't know if he made donations or not in his last 2 quarters. The media is basing this claim on the fact that no agency has made a public announcement that they received such a donation. What if an agency received the donation but didn't make a public announcement?

Trump salary donations:

In 2017
Q1: $78,333 to the Department of Interior’s National Park Service (NPS) for maintenance backlog at historic battlefields. An anonymous donor sent $22,000 to bring the total to $100,000.

Q2: $100,000 to the Department of Education to host a free, two-week space camp for 30 low-income, middle school girls. Trump himself added the additionl amount to bring the total to his pretaxed amount of salary which he did for each subsequent donation.

Q3: $100,000 to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Q4: $100,000 to the Department of Transportation to support its programs to “rebuild and modernize our crumbling infrastructure.”

2018
Q1: $100,000 to the Veteran’s Administration for “caregiver support in the form of mental health and peer support programs, financial aid, education training, and research.”

Q2: $100,000 to the Small Business Administration earmarked for a seven-month training program tailored for veteran entrepreneurs.

Q3: $100,000 to the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.

Q4: $100,000 to the Department of Homeland Security.

2019
Q1: $100,000 to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Q2: $100,000 to the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of the Surgeon General.

Q3: $100,000 to the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health. [opioid crisis]

Q4: $100,000 to HHS, Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health to “confront, contain, and combat #Coronavirus[.]”

2020
Q1: $100,000 to HHS to “develop new therapies for treating and preventing COVID-19

Q2: $100,000 to the NPS in July 2020 to help pay for repairs on national monuments damaged in riots.

Supposing it's "98.7%" recovery: A 98.7% recovery rate is not good enough. Imagine if only 98.7% of people who contracted a flu recovered. That would be awful; during my lifetime my experience was that nearly everyone gets a flu sooner or later, and this would mean that 1 out of every hundred (1%, or {100% - 98.7%} = 1.3% to be more exact) of the people who got the flu "wouldn't recover". That's _if_ the recovery rate for the flu were around 98.7% or 99%.

According to https://www.goodrx.com/conditions/covid-19/flu-vs-coronavirus-mortality-and-death-rates-by-year,
"Going strictly by the numbers, COVID-19 is still claiming around 400 lives per day in the U.S., which is roughly 3 times as many as the flu."

Lately it seems that most people _have_ contracted Covid, and that's just in the last 3 years! I think at least half the people I know have contracted it by now (a few have died or gotten a troublesome case of "long covid"), and I expect to eventually get it myself even though I take precautions. By the time I get it, either the (attenuated) variant that I catch or the latest vaccine I'll have had will probably make it a relatively very mild case.

I've lived almost 70 years and have had the flu only a few times: maybe 4 times, which is about once every 17 years average.

But the number of people listed as COVID deaths include everyone who dies who had a positive COVID test. Including those who died in accidents, murders, or who had terminal illnesses and were already dying. According to a CDC study which has since been censored, only 6% of COVID deaths did not have any other fatal or potentially fatal components. Flu deaths are not recorded in the same way. If someone is dying of cancer and beforee death contracts the flu, that death is recordedd as a cancer death with flu complications, not a flu death. Because of how the records are documented, we really don't know how the death rate of SARS CoV2 compares. The closest way to tell with the available info would be to take 6% of the official COVID death numbers as the actual COVID deaths. I'm not great with math but I think that comes to 0.078% actual COVID deaths.

I'd also like to see the CDC provide records of those who die of COVID vaccines.

How did he FORCE pharma companies to rush the vaccine? He didn't even offer incentives like tax breaks. He did ask the FDA to consider speeding up approval. But the FDA is not a pharma company nor did he force them to fast track approval.

Unfortunately Trump listened to the experts like Fauci too much.

You either don't understand what fascism is or are intentionally being obtuse. Fascism is about strong central authority (whether of a single leader or group of elites) which impose conformity and eventually dictate more and more aspects of the lives of the people who live under their system.

Some signs of fascism include political correctness. Media which support and promotes the authority and dictates of the leader/s. The acceptance that the government knows best. Government gift of free medical care. Redistribution of wealth as well as basic neccesities. Violent thugs getting not only a free pass but rewarded while those who disagree with the government are treated as criminals or traitors. Under a fascist government the government controls the economy, the media, education, medical, religion, entertainment, youth activities, and reproduction. Encouraging the breakup of the family unit. Encouraging people to inform on each other for politically incorrect actions or attitudes. Criminalzation of ideas promoting independence and decriminalization of moral issues such as abortion.

Free medical. But medicine is rationed or even denied to those deemed undesirable. Medical providers must inform on their patients. Sterilization and abortions are encouraged or even dictated to those who are less desirable to the state.

Free education. But censorship of books, censorship of other materials, and censorship ideas prevail and the state dictates what is to be taught.

Free housing which has been redistributed away from previous owners and given to those who the government approves.

Businessses must buy from approved sellers, sell to approved buyers, hire approved employees, produce the approved amount, and can have any portion of their product or business confiscated at any time for no reason.

Merit gleans little to no rewards but rewards are meted out on the basis of ideology and political correctness.

This is a red flag for fraud, claiming losses against a business that doesn't generate a dime of income.

The way this works is a corporation is set up for the sole purpose of losing money, different expenses or costs of supposedly "running" these businesses are claimed on their itemized expenses sheet...for instance in trump's case he could lease an office suite to the corporation at any price they want to assign to it, and the business would maintain overheads while never generating a dime. The other way it is used is for another corporation to fund several hundred thousand or millions of dollars as a capital expenditure to start up the company, then it is paid out as costs of "doing business".

Corporations set up to lose money are fraud, and if IRS has the resources to properly flag and audit these zero profit corporations they could easily put an end to much of it.

I personally think that the IRS needs to be expanded however much is necessary to catch large scale fraud, it's a huge money maker.
