Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah is sounding the alarm about the massive interest on the nation's debt.
"We're so screwed. And glued. Also tattooed. Interest will top $1.1 trillion this year. That's what decades of reckless, hegemonic rule by The Uniparty™️ does," Lee tweeted.

That’s not to mention the daily 40,000 gallons of horse urine. In other words, cities reeked.
As Morris says, the “stench was omnipresent.”
Here are some fun bits from his article:
Urban streets were minefields that needed to be navigated with the greatest care. “Crossing sweepers” stood on street corners; for a fee they would clear a path through the mire for pedestrians. Wet weather turned the streets into swamps and rivers of muck...
Stonewall Jackson rides again.
On Thursday, the Shenandoah County School Board, which had wiped away the names of Confederate generals from its schools in a 2020 vote, restored the names of Jackson and two other Virginia-based Confederate generals to its schools, according to WHSV-TV.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to guess who the interviewee is.
Interviewee: “The US government can’t go bankrupt because we can print our own money.”
Dim interviewer: “Like you say, they print the dollar, so why does the government even borrow?”
Interviewee:“Well, um, the – er – so the – I mean – again, some of the stuff gets – some of the language that the – erm – some of the language and concepts are just confusing. I mean, the government definitely prints money, and it definitely lends that money, which is why – erm, er – the government definitely prints money, and then it lends that money by – er – by selling bonds – er – is that what they do? They, they – erm – they – yeah, they, they – erm – they sell bonds – yeah, they sell bonds, right, so as they sell bonds and people buy bonds and lend them the money – yup – so a lot of times, a lot of times – at least to my ear – with MMT the language and the concepts can be kind of unnecessarily confusing, but there is no question that the government prints money and then it uses that money to – um, er, uh – er – so – um – yeah, I – I – I guess I’m just – I don’t – I can’t really talk – eh, I don’t – I don’t get it – I don’t know what they’re talking about, like, ’cos – it’s like – the government clearly prints money, it does it all the time, and it clearly borrows, otherwise we wouldn’t be having this that ’n’ defic – conversation, so I don’t think there’s anything confusing there.”...
The undue influences on the 2020 presidential election already are well known: The $400 million plus that Mark Zuckerberg handed out to elections officials who largely used it to recruit voters in Democrat districts as well as the FBI's stunning, and wrong, description of details from the Hunter Biden laptop as Russian disinformation.
Now it's suspected the Biden administration itself is working to interfere in the coming vote.
"...More than 10 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age men – have crossed the US border since Joe Biden took office in January 2021. The US has completely lost control over the US-Mexico border because of Joe Biden.
The Mexican cartel is in charge.
“We do not control the border. The cartel controls the border,” the whistleblower said. “Everything we do is a reaction to things that they have planned. Usually, we’re chasing around pawns while the kings and queens are doing whatever they want.”...

On Wednesday, El Paso County Judge Ruben Morales dismissed riot participation charges against 211 illegal aliens who were caught on video rushing the southern border and shoving Texas National Guardsmen, the New York Post reported.
According to Morales, he was forced to drop the charges because the state failed to provide a transfer order to move the cases from district to county court. He said that because of that, his "hands [are] tied."
House Democrats voted unanimously to continue including foreign nationals, illegal aliens among them, when apportioning congressional districts in states.
Late on Wednesday, the House voted along party lines, 206-202, for Rep. Chuck Edwards’ (R-NC) Equal Representation Act, with all Republicans supporting the bill and all Democrats opposing...
This penetrating scrutiny appears to have struck a nerve with Willis, who told local news, "Isn't it interesting when we got a bunch of African American DAs, now we need a daddy to tell us what to do?"
"This is really messing up my business," continued Willis. "They can look all they want."
