When you cut taxes but don't cut spending then you just create debt...and for what reason...because Trump didn't have the stones to cut spending?

And while we are on the subject, remember the world's greatest economy created by Herr Trump. You should, he boasted about it constantly, only when you use debt and continued government spending a central part of your growth equation the paltry amount of growth Trump achieved (bearly above Obama and you clowns called him the worst of all time) was done with smoke and mirrors [Donalds continual lies] and unnecessary debt.

Now, I have no problem with any of what you mention above but one of the first regulations that Trump cut was to allow Coal companies to start dumping their slag [loaded with mercury and other heavy metals] into streams and rivers where we get our drinking water and use for recreation. And Trump did so purely for political reasons, to score points with the dead and dying coal industry. As for illegals, is there a line of Americans wanting to work in the fields or roof a house when it's 100 plus outside because of global warming? What about maids or childcare or landscapers or any of the hundreds of jobs that "Americans" have turned their backs on? And you're a conservative, who every time there is an attempt to increase wages you're there to push them back! You're seriously going to tell me that you're worried about low wages? What an absolute joke!

As for tyrant: look at the 2020 election and the lies that Trump spread leading up to and past voting. Isn't that tyranny to try to disenfranchise 81 million people simply because you lack the stones to admit that you lost? And if January 6th wasn't the act of a tyrant then sadly you people don't know what a tyrant is...

I want to try to clarify something that you leftists have absolutely no understanding of. The president can make his spending priorities known, but he cannot spend any money. Trump proposed tax cuts that benefit almost everyone across all tax brackets. After the Trump tax cut, revenue to the treasury increased. Meaning the government received more money after the tax cut than before it, unfortunately, Congress spent even more money than they took in. On a personal level, if you receive an increase of $100 a week but you spend an additional $200 a week, you don't have an income problem. You have a spending problem.

I wish everyone would stop asking how stupid Biden can be or how badly he can screw up the country. He takes that as a challenge.

Republican legislatures are the majority


Republican legislatures are not the majority in every state. Brain dead leftists see only a problem if it appears to be Republican. The Democrats have been doing the same thing for decades but are totally blind to it if it looks like it may favor republicans. I look at 2 situations. Would I trust my side (party is irrelevant) doing whatever? If no, then don't let them do it. If yes, ask would you trust the other side? If yes, then it is most likely a good policy. If no, that means it should not be done because at some point the other side will be in power and it will be used against you. Grow up, take responsibility for your decisions. Biden won (successfully stole) the election. Quit blaming Trump for Biden's f***ups. Figure out how to fix the problem instead of trying to assign blame to anyone and everything other than the actions/inactions of the current administration.

Yes, I hear so much love here on OPP for democrat Americans. /s

You might remember me bemoaning the fact that a few concerned citizens where taking over school boards in red states.

Now laws and maps were being created to make sure a democrat could not win.

That is one party control.

What about the cases where the Democrats have control and draw up maps that favor Democrats in 60-70% of districts? Would you be calling that one party control or does that only occur if Republicans are in control? Look how they have drawn up maps in New York, California, Massachusetts other Democrat controlled state. No matter how hard you try to draw districts fairly, there will be someone who will complain.

It does work both ways. The majority of state legislatures are republican controlled.


That is true in the current cycle of politics. The Democrats had the majority in the past and will again in the future. As long as it doesn't swing too extreme in either direction, it will always correct over time.

It will either force them to produce correct records instead of altered records to begin conformity or just let it fall through not wanting to disclose their sleaze operations more..


Elon may not have to pay anything because Twitter has lied, refused to release the data necessary for the deal, given incomplete data, etc. Because Twitter failed to disclose the information, they are the ones that breached the agreement. Elon was only liable if he broke the agreement.

I reckon the bucket must be to milk that cow into, before she castrated her?

He was demoted to the backup quarterback because he couldn't get the job done. With a giant ego, he can't get it through his thick skull (chronic head injuries?) that maybe he is not getting signed because his skill set and level does not match the needs of teams in the NFL. It happens to all athletes, sooner or later their skills can no longer keep up with the game.

I had to pay my student loan, why can't they??


I worked my way through school. Never took a loan and was told I didn't meet the right criteria to get a grant. My family wasn't rich. I knew people who's families were very well off that still got grants and some took out loans. I've tried to live without going into debt. Unfortunately, medical bills add up but I pay them off as fast as possible. I saved up to buy my house (it's small, but all that I need) my vehicles are used and paid for with cash at the time of purchase.

A radical and baseless legal theory could upend the country’s most essential democratic process.
By Thomas Wolf and Ethan Herenstein

Members of the supreme court’s conservative supermajority just last week took the next step in a little-noticed, but extremely dangerous, project: attempting to jam into law a radical misinterpretation of the Constitution’s elections and electors clauses, which, if successful, would create electoral chaos across the country. Before next summer, and well in advance of the 2024 presidential election, the Court could strip state courts and state constitutions of their ability to check and balance state legislators when they make laws for federal elections, giving partisan majorities near-total control over how voters cast ballots and how those ballots are counted. And it would make the current Court—which already has a horrible track record on voting rights—the ultimate judge of whether the legislatures’ actions are legal.

The notion at the core of their project—the so-called independent-state-legislature theory—is on the fringes of American jurisprudence, so far out there that its few proponents have struggled to dredge up even the barest scraps of case law and history to substantiate it. But its supporters on the Court seem to believe they’ve found a shortcut around all of that with a case named Moore v. Harper, which they’ve just added to the Court’s docket for its term starting this fall.

The appeal traces back to this February, when the North Carolina Supreme Court undid an extreme partisan gerrymander of the state’s congressional map that would have given Republicans a large advantage in races for House seats. Several Republican state legislators asked the Supreme Court to restore the biased map for this spring’s primary elections. Their emergency filings claimed that the North Carolina state supreme court didn’t have the power to even review the legislatively drawn congressional map, despite the fact that the map violated several guarantees in the state’s constitution, because, in their view, neither state courts nor state constitutions should have a say in how federal elections are run.

If the legislators’ theory sounds radical, that’s because it is. It’s based on a stark misreading of the constitutional provisions that assign responsibility for regulating federal elections. Those clauses give that power to the “legislature” of each state (while reserving to Congress the ultimate power to set the rules). Fixating on the term legislature, proponents of the theory insist that the clauses grant exclusive and nearly unlimited power to those legislatures to run federal elections. The ordinary checks and balances of democracy—such as executive officers vetoing laws and courts reviewing and striking down the legislature’s acts—fall by the wayside. The theory would create a vacuum of lawlessness in the most dangerous of places: elections.

It is all a matter of perspective. If my side is drawing up the maps, we are doing everything fair and square. The problem is when the other side gets to draw the maps. That's when we learn all about gerrymandering and being unfair. Notice I do not identify which side is republican or democrat. It works both ways. The term gerrymandering comes from the early 1800s Massachusetts and Democrat governor Eldridge Gerry, who drew district maps to ensure his party stayed in power. It doesn't mean he was the first. It just means he upset enough people that the derisively named the practice for him.

I was better off financially, there were no problems purchasing the goods and services that I both wanted and needed. The country was not perfect, and never will be, but we were improving and America was something to be proud of in the most part. I didn't care for Trump's tweets (although some were occasionally funny), but today I am embarrassed by the idiotic things being said on a regular basis by our president, vice-president, the various cabinet secretaries, taxes and prices rising faster than wages, store shelves empty, our foreign adversaries disrespecting us. People in other countries may have questioned Trump's erratic behavior, but they still respected us. Today, the rest of the world looks at our leadership and our country as the punchline of a bad joke. That is not progress.

We only have reliable records for a very short period of time (geologically speaking). These records are only available in relatively small geographic areas. The Earth has been warming and cooling for millennia without humans (or other entities) driving SUVs and burning fossil fuels. Thinking that humans are the cause of global warming (or cooling) is akin to believing the Earth is the center of the universe or that the Earth is flat. That is an extremely ego-centric view and may indicate that a talk with a professional may be in order. Also, either voluntarily turn in your guns or just admit you have them so the red flag laws can be applied to you. The rest of us understand the cyclical nature of climate and we don't panic.

Your boy Biden has done wonders in 18 months. Inflation is at a 40+ year high, the first 6 months of 2022 is the worst for the stock market since 1962, we went from energy independent in 2020 to energy shortages and food shortages.
