Former President Donald Trump waded into the debt ceiling impasse on Friday, urging Republicans to protect hardworking Americans and seniors by not cutting money from entitlement programs. 'Under no circumstances should Republicans vote to cut a single penny from Medicare or Social Security to pay for Joe Biden's reckless spending spree,' Trump said in a video message.  It comes as House Republicans flex their muscles, warning Democrats that they will only help head off a crisis and raise the debt ceiling if it comes with sweeping cuts to spending programs.

Sound advice. His advice on abortion is sound too. Assuming you want to win elections. It’s political advice.

I wish they'd stop calling it "debt". It's really just the national low-risk savings pool. People that have more cash than they need and want to get risk-free income buy Treasuries. Very rich people don't want to take the principal risk of stocks and like getting guaranteed checks from the Treasury instead. The Treasury is happy to pay this Universal Basic Income, although most of it goes to pension funds and about 40% goes to foreign investors.

Stop sending money to Ukraine. Stop buying Putin’s oil. Use our own. Earth makes oil everyday. Oil is not made from dead dinosaurs. Easy fix. If the Dems cared about this country they would! But. They won’t.

This is why boosting the economy through private investment is just as important as spending cuts.

The NeverTrumping RINOs might have no intention to avoid cutting Medicare or Social Security, or they may not have the option. It's possible that this is PDJT virtue signaling to resist being drawn back into the mainstream-GOP blob.

Why is there an emergency. Why doo we have to cut out what is meant for Americans. Just cut all funding going to foreign nations including Ukraine until we have money to spare. There is no excuse for continuing debt. This happens every year. You would think people would have caught on by now.

An interesting fact from Trump's tax returns is that he does not take Social Security payments. The media has conveniently ignored this, preferring instead to report, falsely, that did not donate his Presidential salary. How many other wealthy people who do not need Social Security decline to take it? Certainly not Biden.

Redistribution of American wealth away from the citizens who earned it requires a large number corrupt politicians to make it happen. I would hate to see Republicans jump on Biden's America Last bandwagon. His invasion invitation has dumped 5 million unvetted non-citizens into American communities, and dumped responsibility for them on the American people, who had NO VOICE. Biden simply dictated to the American people how it was going to be, and so far he has gotten away with it. His invaders are living it up in luxury hotels, and showing their "appreciation" by trashing their rooms, partying and drinking, and throwing away foods American citizens are now reduced to buying on credit thanks to Joe's incompetence. I agree with Donald Trump that cutting benefits to Americans is not appropriate under these circumstances. Biden opened the border. The longer he stays in office, the poorer Americans become, and the more at risk they are from drugs, disease and crime Biden invited into our country. Worst. President. Ever.

Even President Trump misses the point on the climate change scam. He should ask the scsmmers to produce the data which irrefutably proves their theory. The data not only DOESN'T exist - - in fact - - it's IMPOSSIBLE for it TO exist. When are the Pubbies going to wake up - - and demand to see the (nonexistent) data?

First, McCarthy and company need to frame this as previous Democrat controlled Congress irresponsibly spending money they didn't have without ensuring they had sufficient debt room Second, McCarthy has already stated he won't touch Medicare or Social Security in any circumstance. Third, make the Joe Biden wear this budget scheme by signing the Omnibus bill all the while KNOWING there wasn't actual funding to pay for it. Lastly, today the Press Secretary stated they won't negotiate, as if to force the new Congress to resolve a budget problem that never needed to be happen.

Biden Admin Shatters All-Time Record For
Number Of Illegal Alien Encounters On Southern Border

Posted by Imright 1/21/2023 8:57:23 PM Post Reply
President Joe Biden’s administration broke the all-time record for the number of illegal aliens encountered on the U.S.-Mexico border last month, according to newly released numbers. The administration released the numbers late Friday evening likely in hopes that the news of more than a quarter of a million encounters would get little coverage in the news media. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) had 251,487 encounters with illegal aliens last month, the highest number ever recorded in U.S. history. Last month’s numbers, combined with the first two months of fiscal year 2023 — October and November — put the U.S. on track to have more than 2.87 million illegal alien encounters

The majority of Americans blame President Joe Biden for ongoing record-breaking illegal immigration levels at the United States-Mexico border, a new poll reveals. A Yahoo/YouGov poll released on Friday shows that 54 percent of American adults blame Biden either “a great deal” or “some” for record-breaking illegal immigration levels. Only about 33 percent of Americans said Biden is not to blame. Most significantly, swing voters by a 58 percent majority said Biden is responsible for illegal immigration over the last two years while fewer than 3-in-10 say otherwise. A majority of white Americans, 61 percent, and a plurality of Hispanic Americans, 46 percent, said Biden is to blame.

A professor at the University of Pennsylvania once pointedly urged Hunter Biden’s daughter to attend a lavish all-expenses paid conference in China, advising that her family name would open doors for her in the country, according to messages found on Hunter’s abandoned laptop. The university is under scrutiny after classified documents were discovered at the school’s Penn Biden Center in Washington D.C. shortly before the midterm elections. The discovery was concealed by the Biden White House for months afterwards. Some of the documents related to countries Hunter Biden did business in — like Ukraine.

Classified documents connected with Biden were first found in his private office at the Penn Biden Center, a think tank in Washington, D.C., on November 2, less than a week before the 2022 midterm elections. Since then, Biden’s attorneys have located more classified documents at Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, on three separate occasions: an unspecified number found in the garage on December 20, one document found in Biden’s study on January 11,

So Joe Biden is finally, officially in trouble for something. While many in the media are eager to point out that Biden’s classified document scandal isn’t as bad in some ways as Trump’s classified document scandal, some realists have admitted that they’re similar enough that there’s probably not a lot to be gained here. And one reason that’s true is that while Biden’s people did quickly call the National Archives to, in effect, turn themselves in once the documents were found, they sat on the findings as far as the public was concerned.

That comes after the White House had asserted that the search had been completed. Biden’s lawyers immediately tried to get out in front of the revelation, releasing a statement claiming cooperation with the DOJ. But while the administration continues to talk about transparency, one bombshell detail from the search has left the president’s lies fully exposed. Namely, the fact that documents were found that were taken during Biden’s years in the Senate.
