America's Worst-Made Plans Come Home to Roost
By P.J. O'Rourke
The Biden administration has a lot of plans...

In his first 100 days in office, President Joe Biden has already proposed "The American Rescue Plan" ($1.9 trillion), "The American Jobs Plan" ($2.3 trillion), and "The American Families Plan" ($1.8 trillion). That's $6 trillion so far.

These plans... Do they mean families need to be rescued from jobs or your job needs to be rescued from you or you need to be rescued from your family? I can't quite tell...

The Biden administration has a lot of explaining to do – as the planning continues and the $6 trillion of your money gets spent.

Six trillion dollars is about $18,000 for every person in the U.S. Hope you weren't planning to do anything with that 18 grand...

I was planning on buying a used pickup truck and a new roof for the chicken coop.

But as the poet Robert Burns said...

The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft a-gley.

("Gang aft a-gley" being Scots' dialect meaning "after taxes and inflation.")

Certainly one of the best-laid schemes of men (mice really didn't come into it, though I've got some in the chicken coop) was the U.S. Constitution.

And a notable feature of the Constitution is that it contains no plans.

The Constitution guarantees our freedom, but – on purpose – it doesn't tell us what to do with that freedom. We wouldn't be free if it did.

A leaky chicken coop and no pickup in which to haul away the old shingles aren't making me feel more free than I felt before Biden was elected. (And I have a flock of wet hens who are also pretty mad at the Biden administration.)

The Constitution contains no plans, but it does have a design. The document is painstakingly organized to create a form of government that keeps certain parts of the nation from exerting undue power over other parts of the nation.

In 1788, when the Constitution was ratified, this was a matter of balancing the interests of big states with small states, northern states with southern states, and the original eastern 13 states with the nascent western states of the future.

Thus, South Carolina wasn't allowed to plan New York's Erie Canal so that it began in Albany but went to Charleston instead of Buffalo.

Today, when states themselves are of somewhat less importance, it's a matter of balancing indignant urban self-righteousness with hinterland righteous indignation.

Thus the residents of Portland, Oregon, aren't allowed to draw up the plans for my chicken coop... Which, if they had it their way, would be solar-powered, constructed from sustainable organic materials such as recycled cardboard bong packaging, cover six acres in order to meet minimum free-range poultry-raising requirements, and contain no chickens due to vegan concerns for the ethical treatment of animals.

There's another, even more important aspect of the Constitution's design. This is to keep certain parts of the government from exerting undue power over... the government.

The executive branch is supposed to saddle the legislative branch, which is supposed to keep a tight rein on the judicial branch... which is supposed to halter the executive branch, which is supposed to tie the legislative branch to the hitching post and so on.

This "separation of powers" political horse-wrangling was an attempt to prevent the federal government from stampeding.

As I mentioned, my chicken coop is rickety and a wild Biden/Harris/Pelosi herd galloping through my barnyard could trample it.

Amendments IX and X in the Bill of Rights are clear on the subject of "hold your horses:"

IX.
The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

X.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

In other words, we can make our own damn plans. We don't need the Biden administration to do it for us.

Indeed, it's dubious on what grounds the Biden administration has the authority to take $6 trillion of our money and plan to do wh**ever it wants with it.

In my opinion, this violates the 4th Amendment clause ensuring "The right of the people to be secure in their persons [and chickens], houses [and coops], papers [including pickup truck title and registration], and effects [eggs] from unreasonable searches and seizures."

Not to mention the 5th Amendment clause stating, "nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation."

Eighteen thousand dollars of my private property is being taken for public use in The American Rescue Plan, The American Jobs Plan, and The American Families Plan. I'd say just compensation for that would be... $18,000 (plus, of course, another $18,000 for my wife and $54,000 for our three kids).

But you may be thinking, "They're going to get that $6 trillion by taxing corporations, soaking the rich, and borrowing money from sucker countries like China. The $18,000 isn't coming out of my wallet." Take a look in your wallet. See that dollar bill? What does it say in small print up above George Washington's right ear?

THIS NOTE IS LEGAL TENDER FOR
ALL DEBTS, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE

What happens when sucker countries like China quit borrowing? Or wise up and start charging the kind of interest rates that ought to be charged for a $6 trillion loan to a bunch of worthless nags bucking and rearing and busting out of their corral? Your legal tender is going to get tenderized and wind up about as valuable as a horsemeat sandwich.

And rich corporations? Where do they get the money to pay for a hike in taxes? By hiking the prices they charge you.

And those soaked rich? Think they'll be hiring you to towel them off?

Maybe you're under the impression that $6 trillion in government spending means you're going to get $18,000. But as Abraham Lincoln pointed out in the Gettysburg Address, our government is "of the people, by the people, for the people."

You are these people... The Biden administration's plans are $6 trillion of your money, spent by you, for which you'll have to pay.

When the Biden administration comes knocking on the door looking to get that $18,000 from each and every one of us, I hope you'll join me while I take a seat on the egg crates dodging raindrops and saying, "Nobody in here but us chickens."

Jen Psaki claims 'a number of officers' died the day of the Capitol r**t
More than 120 retired generals and admirals posted an open letter questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 e******n results and President Joe Biden’s mental and physical health.
"Without fair and honest e******ns that accurately reflect the 'will of the people' our Constitutional Republic is lost," stated the letter, which was released Monday by "F**g Officers 4 America" and signed by 124 former admirals and generals.
“E******n integrity demands insuring there is one legal v**e cast and counted per citizen. Legal v**es are identified by State Legislature’s approved controls using government IDs, verified signatures, etc. Today, many are calling such commonsense controls ‘r****t’ in an attempt to avoid having fair and honest e******ns,” it continued.
The letter added that the FBI and Supreme Court “must act swiftly when e******n irregularities are surfaced and not ignore them as was done in 2020.”
F**g Officers 4 America says on its website that it is a group of “retired military leaders who pledged to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” The website adds that retired military members are “bound by that oath to do what we can, in our capacity today, to protect our nation from the threats to her freedom.”
The letter, which also warned of the harms of socialism, Marxism, and “progressivism,” went on to question Biden’s health and fitness for the job.
"The mental and physical condition of the Commander in Chief cannot be ignored. He must be able to quickly make accurate national security decisions involving life and limb anywhere, day or night," the letter said.
The remarks come as former President Donald Trump has continued to argue that the e******n was “stolen” from him, which has been met with repeated criticisms of being a conspiracy theory.
“The Fraudulent P**********l E******n of 2020 will be, from this day forth, known as THE BIG LIE!” Trump said in a statement on May 3.
Open Letter from Retired Generals and Admirals Our Nation is in deep peril. We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776. The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty. During the 2020 e******n an “Open Letter from Senior Military Leaders” was signed by 317 retired Generals and Admirals and, it said the 2020 e******n could be the most important e******n since our country was founded. “With the Democrat Party welcoming Socialists and Marxists, our historic way of life is at stake.” Unfortunately, that statement’s t***h was quickly revealed, beginning with the e******n process itself. Without fair and honest e******ns that accurately reflect the “will of the people” our Constitutional Republic is lost. E******n integrity demands insuring there is one legal v**e cast and counted per citizen. Legal v**es are identified by State Legislature’s approved controls using government IDs, verified signatures, etc. Today, many are calling such commonsense controls “r****t” in an attempt to avoid having fair and honest e******ns. Using racial terms to suppress proof of eligibility is itself a tyrannical intimidation tactic. Additionally, the “Rule of Law” must be enforced in our e******n processes to ensure integrity. The FBI and Supreme Court must act swiftly when e******n irregularities are surfaced and not ignore them as was done in 2020. Finally, H.R.1 & S.1, (if passed), would destroy e******n fairness and allow Democrats to forever remain in power violating our Constitution and ending our Representative Republic. Aside from the e******n, the Current Administration has launched a full-blown assault on our Constitutional rights in a dictatorial manner, bypassing the Congress, with more than 50 Executive Orders quickly signed, many reversing the previous Administration’s effective policies and regulations. Moreover, population control actions such as excessive lockdowns, school and business closures, and most alarming, censorship of written and verbal expression are all direct assaults on our fundamental Rights. We must support and hold accountable politicians who will act to counter Socialism, Marxism and Progressivism, support our Constitutional Republic, and insist on fiscally responsible governing while focusing on all Americans, especially the middle class, not special interest or extremist groups which are used to divide us into warring factions. Additional National Security Issues and Actions: •
Open borders jeopardize national security by increasing human trafficking, drug cartels, terrorists entry, health/CV19 dangers, and humanitarian crises. I******s are flooding our Country bringing high economic costs, crime, lowering wages, and illegal v****g in some states. We must reestablish border controls and continue building the wall while supporting our dedicated border control personnel. Sovereign nations must have controlled borders. •
China is the greatest external threat to America. Establishing cooperative relations with the Chinese C*******t Party emboldens them to continue progress toward world domination, militarily, economically, politically and technologically. We must impose more sanctions and restrictions to impede their world domination goal and protect America’s interests. •
The free flow of information is critical to the security of our Republic, as illustrated by freedom of speech and the press being in the 1st Amendment of our Constitution. Censoring speech and expression, distorting speech, spreading disinformation by government officials, private entities, and the media is a method to suppress the free flow of information, a tyrannical technique used in closed societies. We must counter this on all fronts beginning with removing Section 230 protection from big tech. •
Re-engaging in the flawed Iran Nuclear Deal would result in Iran acquiring nuclear weapons along with the means to deliver them, thereby upsetting Mideast peace initiatives and aiding a terrorist nation whose slogans and goals include “death to America” and “death to Israel” . We must resist the new China/Iran agreement and not support the Iran Nuclear Deal. In addition, continue with the Mideast peace initiatives, the “Abraham Accords,” and support for Israel. •
Stopping the Keystone Pipeline eliminates our recently established energy independence and causes us to be energy dependent on nations not friendly to us, while eliminating valuable US jobs. We must open the Keystone Pipeline and regain our energy independence for national security and economic reasons. •
Using the U.S. military as political pawns with thousands of troops deployed around the U.S. Capitol Building, patrolling fences guarding against a non-existent threat, along with forcing Politically Correct policies like the d******e critical race theory into the military at the expense of the War Fighting Mission, seriously degrades readiness to fight and win our Nation’s wars, creating a major national security issue. We must support our Military and Vets; focus on war fighting, eliminate the corrosive infusion of Political Correctness into our military which damages morale and war fighting cohesion. •
The “Rule of Law” is fundamental to our Republic and security. Anarchy as seen in certain cities cannot be tolerated. We must support our law enforcement personnel and insist that DAs, our courts, and the DOJ enforce the law equally, fairly, and consistently toward all. •
The mental and physical condition of the Commander in Chief cannot be ignored. He must be able to quickly make accurate national security decisions involving life and limb anywhere, day or night. Recent Democrat leadership’s inquiries about nuclear code procedures sends a dangerous national security signal to nuclear armed adversaries, raising the question about who is in charge. We must always have an unquestionable chain of command. Under a Democrat Congress and the Current Administration, our Country has taken a hard left turn toward Socialism and a Marxist form of tyrannical government which must be countered now by electing congressional and p**********l candidates who will always act to defend our Constitutional Republic. The survival of our Nation and its cherished freedoms, liberty, and historic values are at stake. We urge all citizens to get involved now at the local, state and/or national level to elect political representatives who will act to Save America, our Constitutional Republic, and hold those currently in office accountable. The “will of the people” must be heard and followed.

Now it is clear that the B*M's are mostly part of this mayhem. Sullivan has been praised by CNN and MSNBC who sold his tapes to these media to report. But while Sullivan was taping he was also ordering the burning and destructions of the Capitol building. He even did it himself to participate.

Now, this B***H Pelosi is accusing the INNOCENT president Trump thru a J** 6th Commission , What a waste of taxpayers money. She pretended to hire 5000 national Guards, all planned out to frame out issues against the innocent president. It cost $billion of dollars to keep and secure the orchestrated plots of Pelosi to destroy the innocent president and so she could continue her greed of power till 2022.

She should be the one investigated cause SHE refused protecting the Capitol, even she was told that violence was planned. Only few C*****l p****e were plugged in. I think she wanted violence to happen that way to blame the innocent president Trump.

DOJ Seizes $90,000, Charges Black L***s M****r Supporter Who Allegedly ‘Stormed Capitol,’ Sold Footage to News Outlets.

BY JACK PHILLIPS May 23, 2021 Updated: May 24, 2021
The Department of Justice (DOJ) seized $90,000 from a Utah man who sold footage of Ashli Babbitt being shot during the J*** 6 Capitol breach, according to court filings filed by federal prosecutors.

John Earle Sullivan, a political activist who reportedly attended Black L***s M****r protests last year and who allegedly agitated r****rs inside the Capitol, was also charged with new weapons charges, according to the documents unsealed last week.

So far, more than 400 people have been charged in connection to the breach, which occurred as members of Congress were v****g to certify the 2020 p**********l e******n.

According to the court documents, Sullivan portrayed himself as an independent journalist who was reporting on the chaos, but he actually encouraged other participants to “burn” the building and engage in violence.

Sullivan is accused of having a conversation with others who breached the building and allegedly told them: “We gotta get this [expletive] burned,” according to court documents in his case.

“There are so many people. Let’s go. This [expletive] is ours! [Expletive] yeah,” he allegedly cheered after he and protesters entered the Capitol, the DOJ documents said. “We accomplished this [expletive]. We did this together. [Expletive] yeah! We are all a part of this history,” and “let’s burn this [expletive] down.” The documents accused him of calling on others to burn the Capitol down multiple times.

At one point, he’s also heard saying, “I am ready bro. I’ve been to too many r**ts. I’ve been in so many r**ts,” the documents said. “It would be fire if someone had revolutionary music and [expletive],” prosecutors said Sullivan told others on J*** 6.

Prosecutors furthermore alleged that Sullivan apparently broke a window inside and said, “I broke it. My bad, my apologies. Well, they already broke a window, so, you know, I didn’t know I hit it that hard. No one got that on camera.”

After leaving the Capitol later on J*** 6, Sullivan was seen, according to prosecutors, telling another individual that he “brought my megaphone to instigate [expletives]” and wanted to “make these Trump supporters [expletive] all this [expletive] up.”

Sullivan recorded a video of the confrontation between r****rs and police near the House chamber that included the shooting of Air Force veteran Babbitt and, according to court filings, bragged to a witness that “my footage is worth like a million of dollars, millions of dollars.”

Sullivan sold that footage to several news outlets for a total of $90,000, according to a seizure warrant. The news outlets were redacted from the warrant.

After the breach in January, Sullivan appeared on several corporate media outlets including CNN and MSNBC.

During his CNN appearance in January, Sullivan said that he was “not on the Trump side” or the “MAGA side” and alleged he was just there to document the incident.

Sullivan in July 2020 was arrested in Utah for alleged r**ting, making a threat of violence, and criminal mischief because he engaged in a r**t that resulted in the shooting of a motorist amid nationwide Black L***s M****r demonstrations last year. He was named as an organizer in a police affidavit.

“As a protest organizer, John Sullivan is heard talking about seeing the shooting, looking at the gun, and seeing smoke coming from it. John did not condemn the attempted murder nor attempt to stop it nor aide in its investigation by police,” the police affidavit said, according to the Utah-based Deseret News.

Later, on Dec. 28, Sullivan also wrote on Twitter that he supported an “armed revolution,” saying that it “is the only way to bring about change effectively.” His account was later suspended.

Using the nickname “Jayden X” online, Sullivan tweeted just days before the Capitol breach that the system should be burned to the ground while adding A****a, anti-capitalist, anti-Trump, and Black L***s M****r hashtags.

And on Jan. 2, just days before the breach, Sullivan’s account wrote: “[Expletive] The System – Time To Burn It All Down. #b*m #a****a #burn #[expletive]thesystem #abolishcapitalism #abolishthepolice #acab #[expletive]trump.”

Sullivan’s lawyer had no comment on the case when he was contacted on Sunday.

Nope.
You had me going right up to
“The rationale of thievery “

Millionaires change the laws or reduce regulations and suddenly they’re Billionaires.
What can you do to change your status from middle class to Ultra rich.
Nothing, you’re still waiting for Reagan’s crumbs to hit your floor.
None of the millionaires is working any harder than they ever did.
But now they’re Billionaires.
Go ahead and try to convince me they deserve every penny.
On top of me paying their taxes .
Go ahead.
It’s out of your hands too.
Besides you’ve been working for them and helping them for years.

In early January 2020, Bob Lonsberry, a Rochester talk radio personality on WHAM 1180 AM, said this in response to Biden’s Income ine******y speech:

Two Americas

The Democrats are right, there are two Americas.

The America that works, and the America that doesn’t.

The America that contributes, and the America that doesn’t.

It’s not the haves and the have nots, it’s the dos and the don’ts.

Some people do their duty as Americans, obey the law, support themselves, contribute to society, and others don’t. That’s the divide in America.

It’s not about income ine******y, it’s about civic irresponsibility.

It’s about a political party that preaches hatred, greed, and victimization in order to win elective office.

It’s about a political party that loves power more than it loves its country. That’s not invective, that’s t***h, and it’s about time someone said it.

The politics of envy was on proud display a couple of weeks ago when President Biden pledged the rest of his term to fighting “income ine******y.” He noted that some people make more than other people, that some people have higher incomes than others, and he says that’s not just.

That is the rationale of thievery. The other guy has it, you want it, Biden will take it for you. V**e Democrat.

That is the philosophy that produced Detroit. It is the e*******l philosophy that is destroying America.

It conceals a fundamental deviation from American values and common sense because it ends up not benefiting the people who support it, but a betrayal.

The Democrats have not empowered their followers; they have ens***ed them in a culture of dependence and entitlement, of victimhood and anger instead of ability and hope.

The president’s premise – that you reduce income ine******y by debasing the successful – seeks to deny the successful the consequences of their choices, and spare the unsuccessful the consequences of their choices. Because, by and large, income variations in society are a result of different choices leading to different consequences. Those who choose wisely and responsibly have a far greater likelihood of success, while those who choose foolishly and irresponsibly have a far greater likelihood of failure. Success and failure usually manifest themselves in personal and family income.

You choose to drop out of high school or to skip college – and you are apt to have a different outcome than someone who gets a diploma and pushes on with purposeful education and/or employment.

You have your children out of wedlock and life is apt to take one course; you have them within a marriage and life is apt to take another course.

Most often in life, our destination is determined by the course we take.

My doctor, for example, makes far more than I do. There is significant income ine******y between us. Our lives have had an ine******y of outcome, but, our lives also have had an ine******y of effort. While my doctor went to college and then dev**ed his young adulthood to medical school and residency, I chose another avenue.

He made a choice, I made a choice, and our choices led us to different outcomes. His outcome pays a lot better than mine. Does that mean he c***ted and Joe Biden needs to take away his wealth? No, it means we are both free men in a free society where free choices lead to different outcomes.

It is not ine******y Joe Biden intends to take away, it is freedom. The freedom to succeed and the freedom to fail. There is no true option for success if there is no true option for failure. The pursuit of happiness means a whole lot less when you face the punitive hand of government if your pursuit brings you more happiness than the other guy. Even if the other guy sat on his arse and did nothing. Even if the other guy made a lifetime’s worth of asinine and shortsighted decisions.

President Biden and the Democrats preach e******y of outcome as a right, while completely ignoring ine******y of effort. The simple Law of the Harvest – as ye sow, so shall ye reap – is sometimes applied as, “The harder you work, the more you get.” Biden would turn that upside down. Those who achieve are to be punished as enemies of society and those who fail are to be rewarded as wards of society.

Entitlement will replace effort as the key to upward mobility in American society if President Biden Barack gets his way. He seeks a lowest common denominator society in which the government besieges the successful and productive to foster e******y through mediocrity. He and his party speak of two Americas, and their grip on power is based on using the v**es of one to sap the productivity of the other. America is not divided by the differences in our outcomes, it is divided by the differences in our efforts. It is a false philosophy to say one man’s success comes about unavoidably as the result of another man’s victimization.

What Biden offered was not a solution, but separatism. He fomented division and strife, pitted one set of Americans against another for his own political benefit. That’s what socialists offer. Marxist class warfare wrapped up with a bow.

Two Americas, coming closer each day to proving the t***h to Lincoln’s maxim that a house divided against itself cannot stand.
