This is fairly stupid. Government is not a charity, and government wastes a significant percentage of what it steals from other people and the assets of the unborn.

Yes, but did Fauci vaccinate the elves? No word on whether Santa had to lock down his work shops, and at last word, dollhouses were in short supply.

Just a reminder: political whores do not CREATE jobs: they destroy them by high-costing regulation, and "progressives" have stood in the way of nuclear energy and fracking (with cleaner-burning natural gas).

Political whores resent real competition from the private sector, which, unlike government at gunpoint, cannot compel consumers to buy their goods and services. The private sector has a tiny sliver of the market. And government is responsible for prison growth with bad policy. https://t.co/yAu4CuyPM3

"Criminals"? No, members have reporting requirements and are complying. I've seen no evidence of "hot stock tips" from Congressional hearings.

When Trump squeals like a stuck pig, you know that John Bolton has struck a nerve. Bolton did not invent the kerfuffle that Trump, who is still in a state of denial over his loss and has used every tool at his disposal to reverse the result, discussed martial law.

When Trump lashes out to the revelation that he discussed martial law as "fake news", it's just that he got caught with his fingers in the cookie jar. You have to be beyond gullible and ignorant to believe his manipulative crap. Remember his protest federal police?

I likely won't qualify for the stimulus, but the reason I oppose it is out of principle: it's not paid for, and the federal government shouldn't be enabling bad public policy at the state and local level.

My maternal grandfather used to live in the eastern part of the city. Two-story house (he rented upstairs for a nominal fee), his brother and spouse lived in the bungalow in the back. My Mom and uncle sold around the turn of the 80's for about $32k: high taxes.

You're a liar. Public spending is what adds to the deficit, not taxes. Reductions in tax rates do not imply reductions in tax revenues. The cost of government adds to the cost of doing business and lowers the money available to invest and consume in the economy.

Lame Duck Trump, who has added a third to the national debt since Obama's doubling it, is undermining his conservative base with pseudo-populist pandering on unpaid-for bigger government giveaways. He is as much a political whore as Pelosi.

The Congress should not be on the hook because states and municipalities, in their desperate, economically and scientifically illiterate lockdown policies, caused irreparable harm to the economy. Apparently Trump is reverting to his RINO debtor roots.

The only bad thing about the election is that both Biden and Trump didn't lose. No doubt, as in the case of George W. Bush left office with even lower numbers than Trump, his ratings will rise over time as Americans deal with the disastrous Biden Presidency.
