Good morning my Glibs and Gliberinas! It’s that wonderful time again to sit down, sip that coffee, bitch about traffic to your coworker and enjoy another amazing day and the links!
Tucker Carlson dropped his J6 bombs as promised.
Newly Released Footage Shows Unedited Version Of Hawley Leaving Capitol
SPLC lawyer arrested, charged with domestic terrorism amid Atlanta ‘Cop City’ attack
Jeff Zucker called Covid lab leak theory ‘Trump talking point’, demanded CNN not report on it
Cut Deficit in Half and Debt Will ‘Stabilize’ in 10 Years: CBO Chief

TEXIT Bill Proposes Vote on Texas Seceding From the US Ahead of 2024
Iowa taxpayers will pay out over $2 million in IU football racial discrimination settlement
That’s all I got for today. I’ll leave you with a song and move along with my day.
“Tucker Carlson dropped his J6 bombs as promised.”
Propaganda! He is not sticking to the narrative…
The last desperate cry of the Narrative as it faces oblivion.
Given that this is appearing on cnn.com, the author has to be trolling everyone with that line.
I saw the clips. There was no shit burning down in the background, and the damage caused was not close to or over $2 billion like it was during the summer of love, so this was not mostly peaceful!
IN-SUH-REK-SHION!
Curiously CBS has near identical headline and copy
They turned full propaganda instantly.
But I also noticed that they burried the article. Their only coverage is a talking points debunk that you have to look for.
So the machine has a strategy. Ignore. Ridicule. Preempt with counternarrative.
So, the usual.
“So the machine has a strategy. Ignore. Ridicule. Preempt with counternarrative.”
Worked quite well to minimize the impact of the Twitter file revelations, didn’t it?
This is the frustrating part.
You get hard evidence, which is summarily ignored, except when it’s ridiculed and labeled propaganda, and then nothing else happens.
We have evidence of some serious malfeasance, and nada, because it’s buried under condescension and counter narrative, and not a single person will be held responsible for real harm.
“SPLC lawyer arrested, charged with domestic terrorism amid Atlanta ‘Cop City’ attack”
Over and under that the SPLC finally gets labeled as an anti-American terror entity like the FBI, DOJ, CIA, NSA, DHS, ATF, and the churches Biden, Pelosi, and so on supposedly attend?
ACAB
Is that some sort of hooker union?
No, it’s a an badly spelled Genesis song.
“Jeff Zucker called Covid lab leak theory ‘Trump talking point’, demanded CNN not report on it”
I am not buying this attempt to redirect opinions. This is clever way they can get people off the reality that these supposed news agencies actively told lies for the deep state by implying it was just stupidity.
Think about that. We live in a time where our ruling cabal’s go-to to cover its ass is to claim ineptitude & stupidity so you do not see they are evil.
That was my immediate reaction to that quote as well.
Who told Zucker what to tell them?
The press is pretending that the Twitter files never happened. It makes for some pretty bizarre disconnects.
whaddup doh’
Cut Deficit in Half and Debt Will ‘Stabilize’ in 10 Years: CBO Chief
Roll back federal spending to Before COVID an the deficit would disappear.
I’d rather roll back to 2007, but I’ll take 2019 in a pinch, yeah.
Texas leaving the union seems more likely. So does an alien invasion. Although, monkeys flying out of my butt sounds anatomically impossible, unless scientist invent some sort of Ass Nanomonkeys.
Nanomonkeys is a technology man is not ready for.
Rule 34 implies Planet of the Ass Nanomonkeys is already out there somewhere….

“Cut Deficit in Half and Debt Will ‘Stabilize’ in 10 Years: CBO Chief”
These people must think we are fucking idiots. Their solution to overspending causing economic havoc is to halve the overspending?
How about you stop spending more than you get and we shrink that government monstrosity?
And then we all get on a unicorn and fly over the rainbow like one big happy family
sounds good to me.
Better pick your unicorn damn carefully.
The idea is that growth will overtake spending. In theory it works in practice the government can’t restrain itself.
TEXIT Bill Proposes Vote on Texas Seceding From the US Ahead of 2024 – When Texas is independent do you think the tourist visa will cost more or less than the US one?
Cartels would be a big problem if Texas did secede. All spare money would go to law enforcement.
Can we get 48 other states to join TX?
I thought all Texans would be armed to the teeth and handle cartels themselves with little help from the Rangers
That story about cartels buying Arizona elections seems to have disappeared.
They got a refund?
The basketball / football leagues would be pretty boring with 2/3 teams though
MLB and NHL include teams from Canada.
And NBA and NFL for some Buffalo games.
yes but the vengeance of the US would not allow that
At least the Cowboys would have to stop calling themselves “America’s Team”
Americas’ Team.
Texas’s’s’sss’s Team
At the rate Joe is going, he will dispense with title ‘America’ as soon as possible. It’s horribly colonial. As we all know from important studies, America was discovered by bisexual indians who named it ‘Poo Poo Tonka.’ Post break up Biden will ratify that name,
We let 2-3 Canada teams in already.
Will Kapernick be able to play for the Texans then? Because he wouldn’t have to kneel during the Republic of Texas’ national anthem?
Texas was a slave state, bro. Kneel forever!
“GOP to Use ‘Power of the Purse’ Against FBI: Rep. Jim Jordan”
So will they assassinate him (or farm the job out to one of the other US 3 letter intel corruptocracies) to make a point to people fighting them, or will he die from an accident? Did anyone ask Schumer for commentary?
They’d only bother with that if he were an actual threat.
Iowa taxpayers will pay out over $2 million in IU football racial discrimination settlement
How many titles did IU football win in the last 10-15 years do you know?>
The more important question is what their cheerleaders look like. How many dudes dressed like chicks are in that group?
That is just reality Alex. Iowegian women really, really look like farmboys who are wearing skirts.
Although I have heard they really make you feel all right.
You have heard?….

So, Tucker released his first episode about the Jan 6 tapes. Saw a few clips on the internet, didn’t see show.
But wanted to see the response.
So… CNN…
Already had their debunk locked and loaded. But they burried it halfway down the page. “What you need to know about Tucker Carlson and the January 6 video”.
First, it is super shady that he is allowed to violate national security. Second, he is using it to support Donald Trump, who is despicable. Third, he claims that capital police showed Q-Anon Shaman around and opened doors for him. This is a lie. They asked him to leave and he didn’t. They were concerned about violence, so they continued asking him to leave. Plus. He is in jail because he plead guilty. So..yeah.
And Carlson is despicable because he lies about Officer Brian Sicknic, hero of Jan 6. His reporting is dishonest because it contradicts every fact we know. I mean. How are we to even verify that this is even him on the video. Plus, his whole family totally condemns besmirching his name and bringing him up…. It is too painful. (No, really).
…he is allowed to violate national security
Ambrose Bierce, where are you when we need you?
Third, he claims that capital police showed Q-Anon Shaman around and opened doors for him. This is a lie. They asked him to leave and he didn’t. They were concerned about violence, so they continued asking him to leave. Plus. He is in jail because he plead guilty. So..yeah.
That’s one of the videos I did see. Cops are clearly just letting him wander around, and then the Shaman PRAYS FOR THE COPS when he is on the senate floor.
Audio to accompany video would be useful.
It’s clear they’re not at all threatened by him, but I do find it a bit odd that there are 2 cops following like that.
You could almost get away with the line about them following Shaman Guy around asking him to leave, until he gets to that spot where there are 10 cops blocking the hallway and a cop leading Shaman Guy gets them all to clear a path for him. That is the point where you know they were escorting him to the middle of the Capitol Building.
Also, wouldn’t they arrest him if he was breaking the law?
Of course not! If they had arrested him there might have been violence!
And there were only 10 cops to deal with a half-dressed dude armed with horns!
Have you SEEN the damage a gore attack can do?
A gore attack? You mean like making you watch An Inconvenient Truth Clockwork Orange style?
No your holiness. Like Al busting into your thanks giving family event and jumping on the table to gorge on all the food before giving you a lecture about your CO2 footprint. He then drives off in his convoy of SUVs that get 7 mpg to hop on his private jet to go repeat that shit elsewhere.
Why would ypu arrest him some you can escort him and get him on every camera in the building
Sicknic’s family can eat my ass. They sold out and probably got a nice payout for their troubles.
I sort of remember them pushing back hard at the very beginning of all of this. My memory might be bad and I’m not going to enact any labor looking it up, but I remember them talking to Fox to debunk this shit.
Maybe the Sicknick family and the family of the truck driver Joe always blames for killing his wife while drunk get together for really depressing support sessions?
You aren’t mis-remembering. But then the parades, medals and praise started to roll in
Those clips of Brian Sicknic calmly directing people out of the building as the whole thing was winding down were pretty clear.

Such systemic racism. I heard that dog whistle you just did.
“Kidnap victim” => Kidnappy headed victim
My bet is that they are all filling a hole in the desert. Kidnapping Americans who are not in the drug trade is too dangerous to further cartel biz interests.
I think most (all?) of us here would love to see that… but put up, or shut up there Jim. Congressional GOP has been talking a good game since GWB left office and pretty much hasn’t done shit. Stop jawing about it and get it through committee. Make your case, make the left defend their enforcers on the record.
Of course, even if they do — the Senate will almost certainly strip it out in “reconciliation” and PPP will angrily veto anything that tries to rein in the Executive… but damned well do your best. Get it out in the open.
Jordan, like every other Republican leader only speaks to the media for the benefit of misleading the voters.
I feel the same way. It’s just some words. He will do nothing.
Confident prediction: The Repubs will go back to the time-tested “we can’t do nuffin without the House, the Senate, and the President”.
Yup… the farce that was “Repeal Obamacare repeatedly when it won’t pass, balk when we could actually do it” lept to mind writing that.
If’n I remember right, with the exception of (spits) John McCain going back on his promise to repeal, they had enough votes, and indeed voted to get rid of it. But that POS McStain turned traitor.
I hate to disappoint you all – but there was no real repeal. Just some window dressing.
The fucks were never going to really roll back a chunk of the govt. And you’re nothing but a dupe if you believe they were (are, or ever will).
Shit like that is why trump happened…
Americans are tired of the uniparty.
The Republicans always seems to talk to the Democrats as if they were a teenager who just finished a fight where they came out second. Talk a big game, but sidle away when it’s time to put your ass on the line.
So you mean they aren’t really going to repeal Obamacare?
That was 100% Cuntbag McCain’s fault.
👆👆👆
This’n.
Nah, he volunteered to be the deciding vote to give the others cover. But repeal was never going to happen.
Didn’t they just fund a new FBI building that will be bigger than the Pentagon?
Never mind that NSA facility in Utah.

“Footage shows Capitol cop Brian Sicknick uninjured on Jan. 6”
https://nypost.com/2023/03/06/footage-shows-capitol-cop-brian-sicknick-uninjured-on-jan-6/
Meanwhile, last I heard The Guardian was reporting nine people died. Although that’s only a tiny fraction of the millions killed by climate change.
“The New York Times initially reported that Sicknick had been beaten to death with a fire extinguisher”
The NYT reported that while he was still alive, then pulled it, then reported it again.
LOL really?
Classy.
On Jan 7, the Capitol Police put out a statement about Sicknick NOT being murdered. It has since been scrubbed. But it’s still possible (if difficult) to find a Reuters piece referencing it.
Stil no ID on NYT’s “sources” for the murder lie. You’d think that would be important so that other people wouldn’t rely on them.

It just keeps on coming. I read the Iowa story but didn’t learn what the racism consisted of, ’cause it might be too offensive for my delicate ears.
Lessons learned: Avoid Mexico for a tummy tuck.
And I thought the government was here to help me – terms and conditions may apply, void where prohibited
OMG what a fucking grift. Imagine my surprise that the article does not mention the nature of the “racial discrimination”, at all.
“Democratic lawmakers such as Rep. Jamie Raskin have warned that Carlson poses a “serious security risk” and have accused the Fox News host of being a “pro-Putin, pro-Orban, pro-autocrat propagandist.”
“There’s thousands of hours of footage that are out there already,” Raskin told MSNBC. “But the reason all of it wasn’t released is precisely because it lays out floor design, it lays out evacuation routes, it lays out where the vice president went, it lays out where the senior members of Congress were evacuated, and so on.””
All of that is public knowledge of a public building generally open to the public.
Not to mention that Tucker said he cleared showing the clips with the Capitol police.
*womp womp*
Raskin is a real piece of work.
I rooting for cancer with him.

RCTs did not show a clear reduction in respiratory viral infection with the use of medical/surgical masks.
There were no clear differences between the use of medical/surgical masks compared with N95/P2 respirators in healthcare workers,
when used in routine care to reduce respiratory viral infection.
Wearing masks in the community probably makes little or no difference to the outcome of influenza‐like illness
wearing a mask may make little to no difference in how many people caught a flu-like illness/COVID-like illness

Residents in central London could be able to report their rich neighbours for leaving homes vacant for six months of the year, under new plans.
Under the proposals, those living in the borough of Westminster will be able to call a hotline.
Homeowners will also be encouraged to make empty space available for rent and discouraged from buying holiday homes.
Council leader Adam Hug said: “These measures are an important first step in tackling the issue of empty houses.”
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-64864916
yes that is the issue for Britain…
Now that’s how you equity the right way…
Humanity is heading for hell in a handbasket and most lemmings think this is fine because of jealousy & envy of what others might have that they don’t.
The vast majority of modern political doctrine is based in envy. It’s fucking sick.

Do they actually own any property in Westminster or is it all crown estates (government ownership)?

In 1607, a physician named Dr Wootton, of Exeter, was convicted for libelling one of his fellow medics. He had sent a letter that began ‘Mr Docturdo & Fartardo’, and went on to contain ‘2 sides of paper full of wild matter, ribaldry, & defamation’.

Fair share! Fair share!
U.S. President Joe Biden will seek to raise the Medicare tax on high earners and push for more drug price negotiations to help keep the federal health insurance program solvent through at least 2050 as part of his budget proposal this week, the White House said.
The tax increase from 3.8 percent to 5 percent on earned and unearned income above $400,000 is part of a package of proposals aimed at extending the solvency of Medicare’s Hospital Insurance (HI) Trust Fund by at least 25 years, the White House said in a statement on Tuesday.
“Let’s ask the wealthiest to pay just a little bit more of their fair share, to strengthen Medicare for everyone over the long term,” Biden wrote separately in a New York Times guest essay.
Biden has sought to link Republicans to the idea of cutting funding for the insurance program for seniors and the disabled as part of negotiations over increasing the United States’ $31.4 trillion debt limit. The Democratic president has pledged to offer his vision for funding Medicare and challenged Republicans to offer their own.
Salvation is at hand.
I want to receive my fair share for once. I mean, it’s quite obvious that I contribute more to the human race than anyone else, but I am not being fairly compensated. It’s well past time that the unpaid labor of the Firsters was given the proper financial rewards it deserves from society.
“unearned”. “ask”.
How to manipulate language.
My vision for funding Medicare, SocSec, Medicaid, all the transfer programs is this:
They are funded solely from a fund that includes no general revenue or debt financing. That fund is spent down every year, and is funded solely by payroll taxes collected that year. Every year, Congress must set both the level of spending, and the level of taxes needed to fund that spending.
Watch the conversation change when people see generous benefits directly reducing their paychecks.

In more anti-freedom news from down under, the new Labour government wants to tax/confiscate some superannuation accounts. Brief primer: superannuation is kind of like social security. It’s mandatory, employers are required to pay into it for each employee, the government sets the amount paid in as a percentage of salary, employees are encouraged to pay extra into out of their salary, an act described as a “salary sacrifice arrangement.”
Now the government is horrified/disgusted that some people have accumulated too much in their super funds (again, mandatory funds with the amount paid in set by the state). So Labour has channeled FDR in their talking points:
1. some people have too much saved
2. the new tax will only apply to the very, very top of the super accounts (I think the PM is saying less than 100 people)
3. the vast majority of Australians polled on the issue agree with the tax/confiscation
4. some members of parliament are declaring that “even some of those who would be affected by the new tax support it”
There really is no evil to which humanity will not stoop once they’ve decided that the state has a claim to all property.
. the vast majority of Australians polled on the issue agree with the tax/confiscation – DEMOCRACY

Government is the only entity allowed to pick winners & losers. In that society, people that do the right things could be used as examples to encourage others to also see government is too bloated, can’t be tolerated.
Why are they robbing these people? Cause just like banks, these criminals know that’s where the money is.
I will not be surprised that someone proposes our corrupt US fedgov also look at raiding people’s 401Ks soon. It’s unfair that some people lived well below their means in order to save for retirement. If they can peddle this racket where people that couldn’t afford to take on a college loan and wisely avoided that debacle, or those that actually paid off or are paying off their loans because they studied in fields that allowed them to make a decent living, are being robbed to pay for the morons that couldn’t afford the loans but still took them out or studied shit that left them unable to make a living at a premium, they can certainly make up excuses to raid the savings of those that did the right thing in order to “help” those that didn’t.
The belief in equality, taken to the reductio ad absurdum end is Harrison Bergeron.

That is their second delusion.

There’s a reason greed and envy are four of the ten commandments.
Say wut? You mean the 7 deadly sins, I hope..
Coveting thy neighbor’s ass probably counts as envy.
No, four of the prohibitions deal with greed and envy.
Biden called the rate increase “modest,” adding in the Times: “When Medicare was passed, the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans didn’t have more than five times the wealth of the bottom 50 percent combined, and it only makes sense that some adjustments be made to reflect that reality today.”
Hoarders! We must confiscate their ill gotten loot and redistribute it to poor deserving federal employees and elected representatives.
Not to impugn Mr. “A 9mm bullet blows the lungs clean out of the body”‘s honesty, but is this actually true? There was a shtitton of really poor people back then.
He could just come out and state “I don’t understand how generational wealth works, and it makes me mad.”
And the wealthiest already use medicare the most.

Well, that part’s probably true.
It could be from numerous propaganda sources.

I would take out a bunch of stuff… the beans, the mushrooms on the bottom, and whatever is at the top of the plate
Hot sauce and coffee
Maybe coffee is on the trivet upper-right?
I would think tea with milk for a proper breakfast
Beer or cider is better — helps cut through the grease.
I like a good beer for breakfast on a weekend morning and an irish pub is one of the few places in Bucharest where you are not the only one drinking beer at 9 AM which makes one seem like less of a drunk
If you ever go to Harry Potterland in Florida, there is one stall where you can get Cornish pasties and cider for breakfast — best breakfast in the park by far.
I do not like cider. I would never set foot in someplace called Harry Potterland or Florida
There’s no steak, no pork shops and no waffle/french toast. Need a sweet to counterbalance the bitterness of coffee and the acid of the tomatoes.
In Europe butcher shops have all kinds of meat I never saw one just for pork.
Need a sweet – No.
Then where does the Romanian mafia hang out during the day?

I’m Brooksing this shit:
This is really something I’d like to see thrown into the faces of the diversitgy, equity and inclusion people’s faces more often. Every time I hear a white person say they’re an ally and support taking away white people’s jobs or slots in prestigious schools (when they have better resumes for the positions), I want to demand they put their money where their mouth is. Every corporate CEO who talks about how important diversity is can step aside and name an indigenous POC birthing person to take their place.
That’s been my argument with academia for years. You want POC on faculty and upper-level admin? Simple, let’s see a well-known prof at Harvard, Yale, Berkeley, wherever stand up and say, “I don’t think we have enough diversity in our ranks. For that reason, I intend to resign at the end of this academic year and I demand my institution make a diversity hire to replace me.” Instead they sit in their nice comfortable, tenured positions and demand that this stuff be enforced on people looking for jobs.
Here’s a perfect example. Liam Nelson asked about taking a pay cut to close the gender pay gap in Hollywood.

This story is untrue. I have never changed a word in a Goosebumps book.

Looks like Scholastic made the changes without Stine’s input.
He wrote too many books. He’d never have time to go back and change any.
I read all of the original Goosebumps books to my kids (I read most of them as a kid myself, but stopped midway through). He was really phoning them in by the end.
25 years later, he is still phoning it in and making money doing so.
I’m excited for all those lefties out there to explain to me today how all that footage of the buffalo guy being escorted by cops is “misleading” and “one sided.”
More than anything else, 1/6 is their Defining Moment.

Their bluff has been called, let’s see if they bring the army across the Rubicon.
They’ll stand on the far shore saying “you’re lucky it’s too high to ford, and that my army can’t swim, or we’d show you”.
Looks like he did get ratioed with this dumb take.
Because Bernie believes that equality of opportunity is the right standard?
Imma need a citation on that.
Hell, I’d grant you Bernie, but not the rest of the morons.
equity is everywhere
also all leftists will equate equality of opportunity to equality of outcome because if parents outcome is not identical then kids cannot have equality of opportunity as the left defines it
Subtle shift there with saying its a small left wing issue but the entirety of the right wing believe in it.
Motte meet bailey.
Equity is real. They had it in a lot of the governments he favors. Most people were quite equitable in Cambodia in 1975.
In the end, everyone has equity as they line up against the wall.

Climate change is already having a major economic and financial impact on the United States and may trigger asset value losses in coming years that could cascade through the U.S. financial system, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen will warn on Tuesday.
Yellen will tell a new advisory board of academics, private sector experts and non-profits there has been a five-fold increase in the annual number of billion-dollar disasters over the past five years, compared to the 1980s, even after taking into account inflation.
“As climate change intensifies, natural disasters and warming temperatures can lead to declines in asset values that could cascade through the financial system. And a delayed and disorderly transition to a net-zero economy can lead to shocks to the financial system as well,” she said in remarks prepared for delivery at the advisory board’s first meeting.
——-
Yellen said the new Climate-related Financial Risk Advisory Committee, set up last October by the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), would boost U.S. efforts to mitigate the risks that climate change poses to financial stability.
If there is a possibility that natural disasters might tank the economy, we should just go ahead and wreck it now.
Quick, let’s impose some stupid new regulations and make certain there can be no innovative response or rational analysis, just a bunch of hysterical pearl-clutching.
That’s official inflation.
“Climate change is already having a major economic and financial impact on the United States”
As with the pandemic, we are conflating “climate change” with “the state climate change cult”.
Government corruption driven programs and agendas in the name of fighting the climate change, a major racket, is really what is causing all the economic upheaval. Trillions were pissed away fighting the war on poverty. Trillions more will be pissed away on this racket.
I read that as “yes, there are leftists who are pushing “equity”, and the entire right wing is correct in believing this is the case.”
Yellen said climate-related events had already prompted insurers to raise rates or stop providing insurance in high-risk areas, which could have devastating consequences for homeowners and their property values. That in turn could spill over to other parts of the financial system, she said.
The last thing in the world she wants to see is legitimate risk analysis.
Lies, damned lies, and statistics…
I have heard this trope about insurance companies raising their rates because there is more loss, meaning there is more climate trouble. What is left out is that these places even if you only go back 30 or 20 years or so, had 60-80%, or lower, number of properties (and then also of far cheaper construction) on them. Correct for that issue, and the actual damage/payout is less.
Not the bee.

TV Doctor Bruce Hensel Sentenced to 2 Years Probation for Asking 9-Year-Old for Nude Photos
“Dr. Bruce, you crossed the line and violated the vow of your profession, which is to cause no harm,” the 9-year-old’s father reportedly told Bruce Hensel during his court hearing

So: to much or to little punishment?
I see the problem
“The victim’s mother introduced Hensel and the child. The former doctor and the woman had been talking about paying for a movie in which the 9-year-old would appear, per The L.A. Times.”
Stop pimping out your god damn children.
Welcome to LA
Angry father should have put a bullet in him.
“Hensel then embraced the child’s father, who told the doctor that he’s forgiven.”
While I know my Christian values say its proper to forgive, eff that. Only reason I’d embrace that scumbag is so I could plant the knife in his back.
I’m not going to knock the guy’s approach. His faith, his conscience and his relationship with God. However, I am with you Cowboy, I am not sure what my reaction would be but an embrace isn’t one of them.
Technically, a chokehold is an embrace.

It is unarguable that the U.S. has a debt problem. Even as a staunch liberal, I recognize the cold hard truth that interest payments alone on the more than $31.5 trillion we owe now approach $400 billion a year. This is simply not sustainable, and it will only get worse if our annual deficits average out to the $2 trillion a year the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is currently projecting. Republicans are currently calling attention to this issue by refusing to increase the nation’s debt ceiling without a major curb to government spending. Even when putting aside the folly of this tactic and the hypocrisy of preaching fiscal discipline only when a Democrat is in the White House, their plan is nevertheless nonsensical. The reality is that the best way to tame both the debt and our current problem with inflation is to raise taxes.
——-
However, Republicans have vowed that cuts to Social Security and Medicare are off the table despite the fact that many of their members have, on numerous occasions, called to curtail these programs. That Republicans would even mention Social Security when addressing the nation’s debt problems is evidence that they aren’t really aiming to debate about the debt in good faith given that it cannot, by law, add to the deficit. The real reason Republicans bring it up in times like these is they are afraid that if they don’t frame it as a hallmark of government overspending, we’ll eventually raise taxes on those they try hardest to protect—the rich.
We’ll take from the rich and give to the poor. Works every time.
Hmm, $2 trillion. That happens to be the amount of “emergency” spending the Democrats pushed through. An amount that is less than they wanted and want to make permanent.
Neither Slate nor Salon mentions the Carlson video dump. So apparently, it didn’t actually happen.
That seems to be the tactic with any information that undermines the narrative these days…
I expected headlines ranting about the lies, but they are just silent.
Top Big 3 ran those headlines, Slate and Salon will come in after
talking points have not yet been agreed upon and shared?
This was something that they finally learned by the end of the Trump years, that it is a better strategy to mostly ignore anything counter to The Narrative, while providing a few token fact checks with the same talking points just in case a true believer encounters a wrong thinker.
From the guy that supposedly won the WH by hiding in his basement and avoiding the news?
Mutually reinforcing I’d say. You really saw it in how the media dealt with Trump’s announcement of his 24 run. And we will definitely see a similar tactic if it’s Harris. She will be largely hidden except for highly scripted events and crafted interviews. If it is Michelle, we will see something quite different. I’d still say it’s at least a fair chance we will see an Obama 3 Presidency.
These people are inept an no longer even bother fixing things. Their priority is Kabuki theatre to convince idiots to keep them in power (and give them more power). And they spend 100% of their efforts on the theatre shit.
What’s the point of power if not to fix things?
Point of power is to give the illusion of fixing things, not actually doing it. Otherwise you could fix yourself right out of power.
Power is for rewarding your friends and punishing your enemies. Fixing things is just a side effect.
You people are deranged, off to the Gulag with you.
Problems solved are no longer useful problems.
There are always new problems. Keeping the old ones around is wasteful nostalgia.

This means the only place to find what we could call bloat is in the remainder of the discretionary budget. Which, you could eliminate all non-defense discretionary spending and those $2 trillion annual deficits projected by the CBO would not even be cut in half. We could hollow out the modern state and still be on a trajectory to fiscal ruin. Even if waste were present, this is clear and incontrovertible evidence that the problem isn’t springing from overspending, but from lack of revenue.
I think this qualifies as a legitimate case of begging the question. “Non-discretionary” is presumed to be necessary and immune to re-examination or reduction.
Nothing to cut. We just have to turn those moneybags robber barons upside down and give them a good hard shake.
As usual, ignoring history. Not even at the peak of World FUCKING War II did taxes top 20% of GDP, but this numbnuts thinks we can defy that.

In studying our tax rate, the problem comes into sharp focus when we look abroad and see that the U.S. is 32nd out of 38 in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)’s revenue statistics report. If the U.S. were to go from our current tax-to-GDP ratio of 26.6 percent to the OECD average of 34 percent, we would generate over $1.8 trillion in new government revenue, almost exactly enough to entirely wipe out the deficits the CBO warned are coming.
Inflation remains high and tax increases are a great way to fight it. Inflation is currently being driven by an increase in aggregate demand—we see too many dollars chasing too few goods. A tax increase would soak up more dollars from the market, dampening demand, and easing inflation almost immediately.
Assume a can opener.
I say you need an European style Federal level 24% VAT on all purchases
I guess they’re hoping to shut down more small businesses.
The tax hikes are coming. I don’t see how they avoid that.
They’re certainly not willing to gut Leviathan.
Never mind that the US has never reliably achieved a collection rate over 22% of GDP.

Yes, nothing dampens inflation like the cost of extra taxes being passed on to the consumer.

Tut tut!
Imean, I get it. The sights and sounds of this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) are eminently mockable. There was Steve Bannon accusing Fox News of stealing the election from Donald Trump. And Marjorie Taylor Greene lying that Ukraine President Zelensky demanded American “sons and daughters to go die in Ukraine.” And nearly 90 percent of attendees saying they would never again take a COVID vaccine. And Kari Lake calling Bannon a “modern-day George Washington” before she was picked the top choice to be vice president of the United States. And Lauren Boebert strutting and yelling on stage. And Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro claiming his election was stolen. And MyPillow’s Mike Lindell . . . well, speaking at all.
So yeah, I get it. CPAC was, once again, a boiling cauldron of batshit-crazy stew. But we can’t let the laughter and the richly deserved mockery lead us to not take these people seriously, to dismiss them. To do so would be a mistake—the sort of mistake that put Donald Trump in the White House in 2016 and almost kept him there in 2020.
A reminder: We have two major political parties in America. We’re stuck with them for the foreseeable future. And if it wasn’t clear long before CPAC this past weekend, it ought to be clear now—the voting base of one of our two major political parties is completely radicalized.
A tisket, a tasket, a deplorable-filled crazy train basket.
Why won’t people listen to us reasonable grownups? We know what’s best.
The voting base of the Republican Party is consultants and politicians?
Oddly, it’s the same group of consultants who work for the Democrats as well.
Curiouser and curiouser.
Give us back control of the ship or we’ll pout.
“And Marjorie Taylor Greene lying that Ukraine President Zelensky demanded American “sons and daughters to go die in Ukraine.”
Did he not say this, in so many words?
To be fair, the other option was dumping a ton more money in his lap.
Supposedly (I haven’t seen the full excerpt), he said if the Russians weren’t stopped in Ukraine, they would keep rolling into NATO countries, where Americans would have to fight and die.
We always could treat the Europeans like our other useful idiots (Hmong, Kurds, etc).
Impoverish our way to ending inflation!
Big Nanny giveth, Big Nanny taketh away.
With that in mind, here are two CPAC takeaways. First, the people who attended CPAC are not some loony far-right fringe of the party. They’re not—as so many “wise” conservative thinkers at the outlets that once defined the conservative mainstream have opined and prayed and hoped for—a temporary populist spasm that will go away. CPAC attendees represent the base of the Republican party. They are the party. They represent GOP party activists, the most committed, involved and engaged Republican voters. There was nothing “fringe” about CPAC this past weekend. This was mainstream GOP. The stolen election lies, the vaccine paranoia, the fearmongering about a “deep state,” the obsession with Hunter Biden, the cruelty toward transgender people, the bowing down to Putin, the demand that Anthony Fauci be behind bars, the authoritarian impulse to punish private individuals and companies deemed too “woke”—this is all quite literally the agenda of the current Republican-controlled House of Representatives. If you call CPAC attendees fringe, then you must call the House Republican Conference fringe.
It’s like when people still try to tell me that Marjorie Taylor Greene is GOP fringe. She’s not GOP fringe. She represents GOP base voters. She represents all the activists gathered at CPAC this past weekend. And she is arguably the most powerful Republican in Washington. Kevin McCarthy is speaker because of her, and Tucker Carlson received all that January 6th surveillance footage because of her. A “fringe” character would not have anything like that kind of power within the party.
It’s a MADHOUSE!

Oh, his warboner can be bluepilled, if that’s it takes to get him support. Mittens is one of those people who have principles. And if you don’t like them, he has others.

“Jeremy Boreing Sitting In Warehouse Full Of Tires Waiting For Goodyear To Say Something Stupid”
https://babylonbee.com/news/jeremy-boreing-sitting-in-warehouse-full-of-tires-just-waiting-for-goodyear-to-say-something-stupid
<a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2023/03/06/never-trumpers-rally-dc-00085758". Wise men (and women) in exile
Donald Trump used his primetime stage at the CPAC conference this Saturday to taunt the Bush Republicans, globalists and neocons.
A dozen miles away, at a lower-profile gathering in downtown D.C. the remnants of that bygone GOP era gathered in a hotel ballroom, attempting once more to plot their way out of the obscurity into which the former president relegated them.
——-
The two-day confab at the luxury Conrad Hotel, billed as the Principles First Summit, was implicitly constructed as a counterweight to the MAGA-fied Conservative Political Action Conference. But the programming also served to underscore the often-bleak, occasionally hopeless, existence that comes with being a modern day anti-Trump Republican.
The former Bush speechwriter turned columnist David Frum compared their effort to reform the party to blazing a landing strip in the middle of the jungle and simply waiting for planes to land. Former congressional candidate Clint Smith, who switched his party affiliation from Republican to Independent to challenge Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), described his state’s GOP as a forest of trees killed by an invasive species of beetle that crawls under bark to poison from the inside. Panels for the event included “Looking to 2024: Hope and Despair — but Mostly Despair” and “Can the GOP survive?”
If it all felt a bit dark at times, it was a reflection of the mood of some headliners.
“Trump is a cancer that’s now metastasized,” said former Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-Va.), shortly after wrapping the latter panel. “So it’s going to kill the party more.”
Waiting just outside the campfires’ glow for their chance to regain command of the troops and seize the reins of the out-of-control party. Any day, now, the call will come.
I believe the cancer comparison is backwards. The cancer of the neocons is about to be excised, hopefully for at least a generation.

The summit itself is just three years old. A decade ago, many of the speakers at this year’s gathering were some of the party’s rising stars and top thinkers. Adam Kinzinger. Bill Kristol. John Kasich. But those who held office have hit political dead ends (Comstock notably lost by 12 points in a 2018 Trump-charged suburban revolt) and the anti-Trump talking heads found their usual confines less inviting. Of the few current elected officials who spoke at the Principles First Summit, two of them were Democrats: Maryland Gov. Wes Moore and Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes.
——-
“It turns out that once you let the toothpaste out of the tube, so to speak, demagoguery and bigotry and all that, some people like it. It’s hard to get it back.” Kristol said. “You can’t just give them a lecture.”
“We need to defeat the Trump Republicans. And if that means being with the Democrats for a while, that’s fine,” he added, suggesting a presidential ticket of Democrats Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Rep. Abigail Spanberger of Virginia. “That’s fine with me.”
A political juggernaut, sweeping all before it aside.
*outright prolonged laughter*
rising stars and top thinkers. Adam Kinzinger. Bill Kristol. John Kasich.
One-hit-wonder, never-was and has-been. That is seriously funny in a complete own-goal way.
