Ken Burns on the State of the Union

[Doctor CamNC4Me]

By all means, please share the coordinated liberal equivalent of Project 2025.


You mean where we are now, with a record stock market, increased manufacturing jobs, energy independence, record domestic oil production, the biggest yearly GDP increase since 1984, crime rates trending down, more border enforcement than the entirety of the Trump administration in a single year, reduced deficit spending every year since Trump's last budget? Those things? Or just the things based on feelings?

Your facts are misleading Steuss. You leave out the inflation caused by Biden's Build Back Better, and ironically Inflation reduction act, and Democrat driven worldwide scamdemic economic destruction. Feel fortunate that you don't have to refinance your house now. But at least you're talking about what this election should and is about rather than if Donald Trump slept with a whore 18 years ago.

The Wall Street Journal reported today that the dollar is the strongest its been since the 1980’s.

Out of curiosity, I checked the DXY under Trump and Biden, and it's yet another place where the performance has been better under Biden.

Using a monthly frequency (weekly requires a subscription, it appears) with Market Watch's data, the only time the DXY was over 100 during Trump was in February 2017 (thanks, Obama). Other than that, the highest it ever was, was 99.38 (September 2019).

During Biden, it has been over 100, consistently, for the past 2 years (since April 2022), with the highest being 112.12. It's currently at just over 104. Using quarterly data, it looks like we have to go back all the way to 2001 for the last time (other than during Biden) that it's been that high.

The hellscape of Bidenomics just keeps getting worse, and worse. It's a miracle none of us are eating our own babies yet.

This:



is a Mongolian torture box. Wrongdoers, such as that lady who was deemed an adulteress, would be thrown in a box and left to die. Literally not making that up.

These MAGA idiots would have you believe they have it just as bad because Gays can get married. They act like they’re being persecuted, thrown in the box as it were, but they’re just being asked to treat others with equality, and to give the downtrodden a hand up - like Christ would do.

Ajax. I want you to think about this woman next time you’re feeling put upon because we have to pay taxes for roads, and the such. Stop being such a little bitch, sack up, and accept the world is bigger than your little turd of an ideological bubble.

How many hours did you work last week Doc? How much of your money did you give away, as Jesus would do? How many volunteer hours did you put in? How much free time did you have? How old were you when you retired? When you see me, all you see is what looks like a big paycheck ripe for the taking. You don't see how much time and effort it cost me to obtain it, nor the responsibilities I have that will never end. And I probably should be giving more as a disciple of Jesus Christ, but unless I make that decision for myself it counts for nothing. There's no virtue in someone like yourself being generous with my time, labor, health, or money. If you really care about the downtrodden, then put your own shoulder to the wheel and make the money yourself rather than constantly seeking how to take more from other people. If you believe in government programs so much, then overpay your own taxes and give up your comfortable retirement check to people who need it more than you do.

Your assumptions about my motives and contributions are misplaced. Service isn’t just about a paycheck; it’s about sacrifice, duty, and dedication to something greater than oneself. I once told a co-worker is I’d serve for “a bowl of rice and a cot”, because what we were doing felt important to me at the time.

I've already given much, and I continue to give in other ways - my generosity and responsibility are personal choices, not imposed demands by, say, a cult based in Utah. As a republic, we focus on collectively supporting those who defend our political apparatus, and reward them with a more or less small pension along with healthcare.

I continue to work for the Intelligence Community as a contractor, but that’s all I’ll say about it.

The fact that you’re a retarded donkey doesn’t change the fact, that because of our military and intelligence communities, someone like yourself can raise a family in relative peace, and you don’t have to worry about being ‘stuffed into a box and left to die’ by a greater polity. Your abject entitlement and unearned hubris is not only disgraceful, but sad. Sad, sad, sad.
