MUST SEE: Elon Drops Powerful Video of Reagan That Is True Now More Than Ever

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy being in charge of the incoming Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is perhaps one of the most exciting ideas from President-elect Donald Trump. - Nick Arama
  • Through it, you could have a true change in government. 
  • That's likely one of the reasons that the powers that be are fighting to separate Musk and Trump, and back him out of the equation. 
  • They're afraid of free media and they're afraid of the change this could bring to government.
Javier Milei has shown what can be done. He's turned a deficit into a surplus for the first time in more than 100 years in their country, and in such a short time in office.
  • It may take a little longer for us, but how do you do it? 
  • With commitment, will and afuera!
Musk cited remarks from Ronald Reagan from 1975, before he was president. But it's all kinds of sense when it comes to tax policy as he explains that even then the government was taking about half of what Americans earn. Reagan spoke out against taxes on businesses that the left pushes but then end up landing on the people.
  • "We oughta have tax reform, and we oughta start by making it so simple you don't have to hire a lawyer to figure out how much you owe every year," Reagan said.
  • "We live in the only country in the world where it takes more brains to figure out your income tax than it does to earn the income," he quipped.
  • "There's very little that government can do as efficiently and economically that people can't do themselves. And If government would shut the doors and sneak away for three weeks, we'd never miss 'em."...

Remember when they called it "global WARMING!". And promised that giving money to politicians would stop any climate change??!!

 

Ironic: Journalist Manipulates Data in Order to Portray Media Distrust As a Republican Problem

Kevin Drum, former writer for Mother Jones... one of way too many journalists whose mission seems to be to persuade by any means necessary rather than inform. - Gordon K
Pretty clear picture of how Republicans, as opposed to Americans (weird framing, but whatever) are actually the ones who mistrust mass media.
What can we conclude? Easy, right-wingers are unique in their false belief that media is untrustworthy. Case closed, right? 
Not so fast. As a few people who pay attention to data noted, there's something missing.
Ah yes, independent voters...

'60 Minutes' helps Mexico blame US for gun violence but unwittingly make case against gun laws | Blaze Media

'60 Minutes' helps Mexico blame US for gun violence but unwittingly make case against gun laws | Blaze Media

In an episode that aired Sunday, "60 Minutes" advanced the Mexican government's preferred line regarding its failure to clamp down on gang violence, smearing Americans as "the bad actors in this dynamic" — an allegation that the foreign nation has raised against U.S. gunmakers in a case that will be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court in February.

In the process of pinning Mexico's ills on America's Second Amendment, CBS News unwittingly helped make the argument that gun-control laws are ineffective in stopping violent crime.

It's time to get real help for the seriously mentally ill

Bronx Rep. Ritchie Torres got it 100% right this month when he slammed progressives for their “perversion of compassion” in allowing vagrants to haunt our transit hubs and streets. - Post Editorial Board 
  • Particularly those who are mentally ill and in need of help.
  • They make life miserable — and dangerous — for everyone. Including themselves.
Progressives think they’re being kind, considerate, compassionate to these troubled people...
Many of them truly believe they’re doing the moral thing by letting these people fester.
They’re horribly wrong...

Ford Donates Eye-Watering Amount of Cash for Trump's Inauguration Along with Vehicle Fleet

Ford Donates Eye-Watering Amount of Cash for Trump's Inauguration Along with Vehicle Fleet

In politics — as in other aspects of life — hefty financial contributions usually come with strings and expectations of quid pro quos.

“While inaugural donations from companies are not new, the flood of cash — coupled with meetings with Trump at his Florida residence — signal a shift among companies looking to curry favor with the president as he prepares to take office,” Politico reported.

'Dogfaced' Furry Aide Helps Democrat Billy Jones Explore House Race

‘Creepshow’ Chief of Staff Who Enjoys Furry Drag Helps Democrat Billy Jones Explore House Bid to Replace Stefanik
A self-described “dogfaced boy/a werewolf” could be the next “creepshow” to trot the halls of Congress.
Update: Since our query about Connie Mandeville’s public conduct, Mandeville’s social media accounts on Meta have disappeared or been set to “private.”
  • Connie Mandeville, chief of staff for New York Assemblyman Billy Jones (D), is a self-described “creepshow” who publicly boasts about dressing in drag as a “dogfaced boy” furry, an often described sexual fetish.
  • Mandeville’s kinky preferences arise as Assemblyman Jones weighs a potential campaign to capture New York congressional district 21, House Conference Chair Elise Stafanik’s (R-NY) district she will likely vacate upon confirmation as President-elect Donald Trump’s ambassador to the United Nations...


Mark Calabria on Mortgages, Interest Rates, and Debt

Critics argue they serve mostly to make the financial system riskier and more statist. - Christian Britschgi 
  • Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac distort the housing market, explains Mike Pence's former chief economist.
One such critic is Mark Calabria, the former head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency that has acted as conservator of the GSEs since 2008. In an interview with Reason's Christian Britschgi, he argues that Fannie and Freddie do little to expand homeownership.
What Fannie and Freddie provide is not a homeownership subsidy but a home debt subsidy. And we have seen this repeatedly, whether it's the mortgage introduction, whether it's mortgage credit subsidies—these things work through the demand channel, not the supply channel. To the extent that it is increasing the mortgage market, it's increasing mortgage demand, which if you're not doing anything about supply is only going to run up prices...

'Do something appropriate': Video resurfaces explaining how decision was made by astronauts to read Bible from space * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

A video has resurfaced at this Christmas season revealing the story behind one of the most memorable events of America's space exploration: The Christmas Eve 1968 reading of the first part of the Book of Genesis from space.

A report at CBN News explains that on that Christmas Eve, three astronauts, Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders, were on NASA's first manned mission to the moon.

CBN reports, "No one, not even the astronauts aboard, was certain that they'd be able to return safely. Their journey, the most hazardous and dangerous ever embarked upon, took them to the boundaries of another world…"

Ah, communism!-----The government describes it as "shameful" that Cuba has to import sugar

Production has fallen, impacting the domestic market and exports. A pound of sugar costs 600 pesos 
Despite efforts to revive the sugar industry, the sector continues to face serious challenges, including failures in the last harvest...
  • He emphasized that the crisis in the sector is such that the country has also stopped exporting sugar, which was a key component of the economy...
  • The situation reflects an alarming regression of an industry that, in its golden age, positioned Cuba among the leading exporters of sugar worldwide. With only 15 sugar mills operating in the current harvest, the sugar industry faces an uncertain outlook, and citizens continue to bear the consequences of the crisis...

Blaze News original: 12 times leftists have sought to twist, hijack, and stomp on Christmas | Blaze Media

'The default to "Merry Christmas" as a normal greeting is also white supremacy culture at work.'
The Freedom from Religion Foundation recently set up its annual "Winter Solstice" exhibit at the Wisconsin Capitol in opposition to religious displays, which is accompanied by a sign that reads, "At this season of the Winter Solstice, may reason prevail. There are no gods, no devils, no angels, no heaven or hell. There is only our natural world. Religion is but a myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds."

The Catholic League responded to the display with a billboard in the vicinity of the FFRF's headquarters in Madison that reads, "ATHEISTS STRIKE OUT AT CHRISTMAS. Celebrating Winter Solstice is a Child's Game. This Is Our Season — Not Theirs. Celebrate the Birth of Christ. Merry Christmas."

Hmmm. Interesting thought.

 

If you are not one of the 65M on Medicare or the 92M on Medicaid consider the question: Why Are Americans Paying So Much More for Healthcare Than They Used To?

The answer is Government regulation and distortion of the market. - Will Larson 
  • And as one of the people who actually pay for Healthcare insurance you might have noticed your premiums up again this year.
Also consider, you are only paying about 20% of the premium and your employer is paying 80%!
Now go back and read the top line again and ask why you are paying so much...

  • Artificial intelligence (AI) devours electricity. A ChatGPT search requires about 10 times more watt-hours than a traditional Google search. Training GPT-3, a large language model that uses AI to generate text, requires about 1,300 megawatt-hours (MWh)—the same as the annual energy consumption of 130 households.
  • Our grids will need an additional capacity of at least 18 gigawatts (GWs) to service AI's data centers by 2030. New York City's grid is about 6 GW annually, so the grid needs about three Big Apples' worth of capacity to satiate AI's energy needs.
