Then again it's hardly worthy of headlines and daily coverage, and is still a big nothing burger whataboutism in these debates. No conspiracy theories trying to implicate Joe have yet to pan out. We are individuals and no court holds us responsible for the actions of our offspring. Even if so he'd still be a choir boy compared to Trump.

Posts: 714Welcome to the 70's part duh.
The numbers just came out this morning: 2nd quarter in a row negative growth GDP.
That makes it 2 quarters in a row that the US economy shrank.
While at the same time the year over year rate of inflation is officially pegged at around 9%. Actually, it is much higher when food and groceries are included in calculation. Pols too that vital component out years ago.
So, what have got? A shrinking economy and rising prices. In other words stagflation! Baby.
Way to go Uncle Joe and radical woke Democrats.
And what do you suppose is their solution to this horrible problem? 1. Propaganda IE change the definition of inflation. That will work. 2. Print more money and raise corporate taxes. 2 of the 3 shit ball ideas that the Dems enacted when Biden came into office that got us into this mess in the first place. Boy oh Boy, this is going to hurt and last a long time.

Posts: 1680Hannity Caught Lying Again
The sleazebag is constantly lying but this one he harped on and on about on air on the sidelines, playing the victim whining about four well earned WP Pinocchios rather than showing the Jan 6th hearings. No, Trump DID NOT give any order prior to Jan 6th to deploy the military to protect the Capital. That's in spite of Trump's yes man and acting Defense Sec Christopher Miller's claim on the Sean Hannity Show. His contradictory statement under oath before the Jan 6th committee confirms this. Kash Patel is also a liar. So lying on Fox is routine for wingnuts and carries no consequences. Lying under oath however does so that's when we are likely to get the truth, assuming they don't no show, take the 5th, or do the "I don't recall" 1000 times.

And it's also very useful in these hearings which aren't a criminal trial, especially in the case of Hutchinson who was around the inner circle and offers direct testimony of the words and mindset of Rump's right hand man Mark Meadows as she was his assistant.

The big question here, is why don't you take advantage of some of the opportunities in our country to get an education? That is if you are from the US. Lying every day in a monger forum doesn't get you far. And that way you can learn how to do some research and stop being a stooge of Fox News and the con men of their nightly fiction hours, Hannity and Tucker, and a constantly lying tyrant like Trump and become a useful citizen. I mean we know you can talk, but what good is that if you don't know what the fuck you are talking about? You just look like a fool, like those traitorous goons that tore up the Capital, and that Rump never pardoned. Suckers.

Posts: 1138Hunter Biden
Hunter Biden had a high-end income and lavish lifestyle. But he struggled with tax issues for years - CNN, July 27th 2022
https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/27/polit...nvs/index.html
I am confused! Why is CNN talking about Hunter Biden's issues?

Bus and rail lines in the United States exist already and easily carry the folks who choose that over alternates, like their own vehicles.
Show me where regularly scheduled busses or trains depart fully occupied where dozens of other eager riders are left at the station?

Things no doubt have changed a litttle.
But for US people to feel less pain, why doesn't the govt invest in public transport. Buses, trains etc. Oh I forgot, that would take competence and a commitment to helping the US public instead of themselves.

The DoE's official implied gasoline demand data shows the weakest demand since the COVID lockdowns (on a seasonal basis) and weakest overall since 2013.
And this is good?

Meanwhile they are still obsessed with Trump and Russia. Russia is is a minor issue, they real problem is China.
