Business/Finance See other Business/Finance Articles Title: Two-Punch The statement that Joe Biden wasnt involved in Hunter Bidens business, is absurd in its face. Joe Biden was Hunter Bidens business. Margot Cleveland Understand: no amount of political blustering will bring this gaslit nation into daylight when there is no more money and no more credit and no feasible way to feed the blob that ate our government. The equation is simple. Our country cant handle normal interest rates; and the value of the dollar cant withstand more ultra-low interest rates. Someone, please, ask Congress to stop screwing that pooch over there! Oh, and that can weve been kicking down the road turns out to be a rusty old 50-gallon drum. Somebody has stuffed America into it and is fixing to drop us overboard beyond the continental shelf off the Jersey Shore. Can that be stopped, too? So, here at weeks end we see these two rather momentous issues juxtaposed: the battle over how to finance that blob-infested monster in DC; and the battle to expose the crimes of a real-life Manchurian Candidate president. Neither battle is going all that well for the minority of citizens who want to live in a pro-reality society. If we follow the fiscal trend, all the tax revenue we can grudge up will barely cover the annual interest on our $30+trillion debt. If we cant boot out the brain-dead cats paw in the White House, then say goodbye to the rule of law and liberty with it. The people we elect to Congress dont want to be accountable for specifically authorizing spending on the blobs multitudinous pet projects. So, they depend on multi-thousand-page omnibus bills nobody can ever scrutinize, and continuing resolution dodges to postpone any necessarily painful action on a budget. Therefore, a dissenting coterie in the House proposes to play hard-ball over de-funding the blob, that is, a government shutdown of unknown duration, until gaslight is replaced by sunlight. The blob itself sends out a frantic S.O.S. Dont let these white supremacist, far-right MAGA nut-jobs drag us out of the comfortable warm, moist darkness we thrive in perfect conditions for continued blob growth! After all, these Congresspersons have their lobbyist-donors to answer to, and theyd better come up with the right answer or else their chance of eventually retiring as multi-millionaires, like Nancy Pelosi did, might slip away. Of course, the joke would be on them (and the rest of us) if it eventually costs a million dollars for a slice of pizza when they try to cash-out. Or is there some dirty secret involved here for instance, that the blob has also taken over whatever remained of the US economy, too. So that defunding the blob also blows a hole in that putative economy? Or maybe not. Maybe the regular economy can breathe a little again with the blobs boot off its neck. Lets go ahead and shut off the flow for a week or two, see what happens. I imagine some of you took in the opening of House Oversights impeachment inquiry, or at least enjoyed a few choice tidbits on Web video. Chairman Comer (R-KY) tried to proceed gingerly, so as to not appear vicious, and called onstage three witnesses to establish an upright basis for the exercise. Alas, they were led by the earnest but equivocating GWU law professor Jonathan Turley, straining so hard to be above reproach that he seemed to levitate out of his seat. The Democrat minority were allowed to invite their own shill, one Michael J. Gerhardt, a law prof from North Carolina, who was there to make the gaslight flicker, and shonuff did. Ranking (minority) Member Jamie Raskin immediately tried to distract the proceeding with a call to subpoena Rudy Giuliani supposedly to impugn the process. The majority briskly tabled Raskins motion. The old trouper has been worked over pretty severely by a lawless DOJ the past three years, had his client correspondence stolen by the FBI, his law license suspended by a malign New York Bar Association
but dont forget he is an experienced and resourceful federal prosecutor himself. He spent many months beating the thickets of corruption in Ukraine for then-President Trump, and certainly knows more about what went on in that grubby money laundry than practically anyone. Bring him on. Id like to see ol Rudy joust with the likes of Cori Bush (D-CA) , AOC (D- NY), and Kweisi Mfume (D-MD). The New York Times pushed the leitmotif of their narrative this morning: theres no evidence that Joe Biden committed any impeachable offenses. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
