  1. My point is, you have nothing.
  2. You devote nearly all your time attacking Israel in the context of January 6th.
  3. There is nothing in the public files that would be useful in a court of law against Trump. I challenge you to prove me wrong.
  4. It appears that you are more critical of Israel than Hamas concerning the events of January 6. It’s striking how some Europeans seem to still harbor resentment towards Jews over the Holocaust.
  5. Now, you stand as a desolate and melancholic island nation.
  6. Oh Lord, your mind is in complete disarray. Lay off the statins.
  7. Honestly, you come across as lacking in intellectual depth.
  8. It's not about the news. It's about being anti-Trump.
  9. The policies of the Democratic Party are detrimental to the working class. Anyone who examines the outcomes will reach this conclusion. 1) High inflation has stripped the working class of its purchasing power. 2) Their housing policies have driven up the cost of living. 3) All of the Democrat's policies undermine the job security of the working class.
  10. Clinton made significant mistakes. The party that claims to represent the working class has contributed to job losses for this group. Clinton and Obama were detrimental to the working class. Nobel Prize-winning economist Angus Deaton explained in 2016 that India, China, and other developing economies have disproportionately reaped the benefits of globalization, but middle-aged Americans “are the people in the U.S. who are bearing the brunt of [globalization] – these are the people who used to have good factory jobs with on-the-job training.”22 Between 2000 and 2020, five million U.S. manufacturing jobs were lost.23 Importantly, manufacturing productivity (per unit of labor) rose markedly, and the United States added approximately 20 million new jobs across the economy during this period.24 Nonetheless, the concentrated job loss that resulted from shifting manufacturing to China unraveled entire economic ecosystems. Sherry Linkon and John Russo, who founded The Center for Working-Class Studies at Youngstown State University, used the “deindustrialization” of Youngstown, Ohio to illustrate this phenomenon: https://www.baronpa.com/library/the-vote-that-changed-the-world
  11. The left's narrative about the cause of inflation is getting old. Biden did push inflation. Where Does the Research Point? Tight Labor Markets and Excessive Federal Spending The administration’s policies triggered tight labor markets and excessive government spending, which research shows can explain for most of the rise in core inflation. https://epicforamerica.org/the-economy/uncovering-the-true-causes-of-inflation-during-the-biden-harris-administration/
  12. https://www.vox.com/policy/385932/biden-inflation-record-worse-unpopular-mistakes Biden screwed up on inflation — badlyHe didn’t just get unlucky. He botched the response.
  13. I empathize with your frustration. Once, I was standing under the BTS line when a loud vehicle drove by, and the overhead BTS infrastructure amplified the noise. I dislike loud vehicles and wish action would be taken against them.
  14. This is more pronounced for the low-income workers. But while immigration improves living standards on average, the economic literature is divided about whether immigration reduces wages for certain groups of workers. In particular, some estimates suggest that immigration has reduced the wages of low-skilled workers and college graduates. This research, shown by the blue bars in the chart above, implies that the influx of immigrant workers from 1990 to 2006 reduced the wages of low-skilled workers by 4.7 percent and college graduates by 1.7 percent. However, other estimates that examine immigration within a different economic framework (the red bars in the chart) find that immigration raises the wages of all U.S. workers—regardless of the immigrants’ level of education. https://www.brookings.edu/articles/what-immigration-means-for-u-s-employment-and-wages/
  15. We shouldn't overlook the significant impact of the Biden administration, which has contributed to an additional 4 to 5 percent increase in inflation, bringing the total to 20 percent over four years. This was devastating to the middle and lower classes. To add insult to injury, the Democrats are trying to rebrand themselves as a party that wants to lower costs.
  16. A troll is someone who posts content to provoke others. This term has evolved to also mean I disagree with you.
  17. Let me address your question. Reducing immigration while the US has a housing shortage is helpful. For people at the lower end of the income distribution curve, not paying taxes on tips is helpful. Inflation is lower than in the Biden years, which is helpful.
  18. Since she is divorced from Jill Biden, I don't see this as newsworthy.
  19. Canada still has a king; it's like being stuck in the Dark Ages.
  20. What is your concern regarding the EC?
  21. Canada still has a king, which does not align with the no king movement.
  22. EC is short for the Electoral College.
