1. Capitalism vs Socialism
Now that you put it that way,
-- Capitalism sounds so greedy and crass
-- Socialism sounds so good and noble
In practice, Capitalism leads to the greatest good for the largest number of people, Socialism leads to tyranny and untold misery for most.

@realDonaldTrump
So senator, is it your considered opinion that doing DNA tests on little kids (to ensure they are re-united with a real parent and not some child-trafficker) is a bad thing? Are you going to get any better or is this it?
@SenMarkey
A sitting Democratic senator is threatening a private citizen in broad daylight with using the power of the federal government for personal vendetta because he doesn’t like the way the owner of a private company is managing his business. If this isn’t fascism, what is?

1. The Road To Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions -- Philadelphia Edition!
Nearly two years ago, Philadelphia passed a "soda tax" -- a hefty 1.5 cents per ounce or $1 tax on a typical two-liter bottle -- as a "sin tax" in the national war on obesity. Now the verdict is in.

Hey Joe Walsh, none of this is a lie. Which part of it do you think is inaccurate?
If you have facts on your side, please cite them along with reference sources. You are making an assertion you cannot back up, and thus you are the one lying here.

1. Covid Mysteries
In India — where the Delta variant was first identified and caused a huge outbreak — cases have plunged over the past two months. A similar drop may now be underway in Britain. There is no clear explanation for these declines.
@RBReich
This is the system you and your cronies in government created. And this is all a deceptive statistical quirk that means absolutely nothing. Regardless of the deceptive framing, top 10% of earners pay 70% of the federal income tax. Stop gaslighting people with class warfare crap.
1. The Biggest Real Problem with Our Voting System
Whether by design or happenstance, the U.S. has ended up in almost all the States (with rare but relatively small exceptions) with a system that rigorously defies fraud detection and correction for absentee ballots.

This wretched 'newspaper' has always been on the side of oppression and mayhem for over a century (see next tweet). It's a national disgrace.
The Other 'Insurrection'
It was just 2 years ago when a mob of Biden voters tried to storm the White House. They torched a church across the street. They attacked Secret Service officers. A mob called for the POTUS to be lynched. Trump had to be moved to safety.

I have been wondering when "white supremacy" will make an appearance in defense of Claudine Gay. There it is. It only means she has no legs to stand on,
Enough is enough.
@Harvard
President Claudine Gay is a distinguished scholar and professor with decades of service in higher education. The recent attacks on her leadership are nothing more than political theatrics advancing a white supremacist agenda.

How many legs does a dog have if you call his tail a leg? Four. Saying that a tail is a leg doesn't make it a leg.
Not hearing the phrase "fake news" doesn't make fake news real news. Only reporting real news makes it real news. Do you understand that?
@KamalaHarris
So far as I know the last white supremacist in the highest levels of our federal govt was this Democratic erstwhile KKK grand wizard of sorts whom Democrats worshipped all the way till he died during Obama's first term. He was at the time the longest serving Senator of all time.

@ScottAdamsSays
This reminds me of what you said about telltale signs one can glean from the words people use. 'Survival' is on Joe Biden's mind. Something is amiss. And the blind man vibe of this video is not a good look for him either.
After making a surprise stop at one of his Des Moines field offices today,
@JoeBiden
told reporters his campaign is “going to survive all the way through the whole thing” even if he doesn’t win the Iowa caucuses tonight.
@ForAmerica
Here is what eludes these indoctrinated ignoramuses:
Looting in any area raises business insurance premiums so high (because of increased risk of payouts), no businesses can afford to open/re-open profitably there. Businesses flee. Employment dries up. Decay & destitution ensue.
@jaketapper
Jake, a sincere question: When did you see this picture first and did you comment on it ever during the last 15 years? [Hint: the picture is from 2005]
By the way, I don't give a damn about Fox channel. Just trying to establish your credibility as a journalist, Jake.
Warren Buffett famously quipped, “I try to invest in businesses that are so wonderful that an idiot can run them. Because sooner or later, one will.”
I feel the same way about America — a country blessed with such a wonderful system that even a Biden can run it.
@ScottAdamsSays
@AOC
I have, personally. And you couldn't be more wrong. Probably the worst poverty most Americans experienced was during the Great Depression, and the crime during that period was not even a fraction of what happens daily today in many inner cities during good economic times and bad.

Has she ever shown empathy and compassion for people mowed down every week in Chicago? She may have, in which case I would be wrong. Do you know any such video she has made for the victims of MS-13? If she has, I would be wrong.
The President of the United States is telling the world that the one thing that has been destabilizing the world is the Supreme Court of the United States telling Congress and State Legislatures that it is their job to make laws, not the Supreme Court's.

Biden: "[T]he one thing that has been destabilizing [the world] is the outrageous behavior of the Supreme Court of the United States in overruling not only Roe v. Wade, but essentially challenging the right to privacy."

Hey

2. Philadelphians didn’t cut calories as a result of the tax on sweetened drinks, nor did they shift towards drinking anything healthier. Instead, most of them just drove outside the city to buy the same old sodas from stores where they didn’t have to pay the tax.
@AOC
Where do you think 'public investment' comes from? If you hadn't screwed up the Amazon HQ deal, it would have generated plenty of tax revenue for NY to invest in infrastructure. Act in haste, regret at leisure. Socialism works great in your head, not so great in the real world.
Bernie's opening speaker claims she only keeps $40,000 of her govt salary and donates the rest. Nice charitable deduction she gets by donating to two organizations:
a) Socialist Alternative (she founded it)
b) 15 Now (her husband owns it)
Both organizations pay her.
Socialism!

Kshama Sawant, a Marxist who wants 1 million socialists to march at the Dem convention, and a "powerful socialist movement to end all capitalist oppression & exploitation!"

Newsom Takes a Page From BLM
When the entire nation was united for police reform upon seeing the George Floyd tape, BLM joined Antifa in rioting.
When the entire nation is ready to help California, Newsom takes this opportunity to campaign for Greta Thunberg.

CA Gov. Gavin Newsom: "What we're experiencing right here is coming to communities all across the USA unless we get our act together on climate change, we disabuse ourselves of all the BS that is being spewed."

True. Nor should the United States of America have violent anarchists, violent communists, unlawful statue topplers, unlawful occupiers, arsonists, looters, violent mobs, and incendiary crime apologists. There is so much we need to fix.

What will you say to the children of those who you let die so brutally in Benghazi in order to preserve your prospects for higher office, and then shamelessly told their families that it happened because of an internet video?
@CNN
So what Michelle is saying is that women were quite empowered in 2008, but something happened during the eight years of the Obama presidency to make them dis-empowered again by the time 2016 election came around. What a sad commentary on Obama's presidency.
@jonfavs
The man you’re being all so weepy about is over 50 years old and the president’s son who was receiving millions for being Vice President’s son.
But ultimately the story of the “laptop from hell” is not about Hunter Biden, it is about the corrupt Big Guy in the White House.
Translation: We found two typos in a hundred page legal document that is chockfull of testimony and evidence of massive irregularities and vulnerabilities in the 2020 election process. We want you to ignore all that evidence (we won't even link the document), because ... typos!
In light of what Trump is doing with Saudi Arabia, I repeat what I said 9 days ago. He is protecting American interests while allowing every critic to assert his/her moral superiority over him on the cheap. This takes a kind of courage unfamiliar to his critics.

I Honor Trump's Sacrifice
Trump is who he is, warts and all. I am increasingly convinced:

@realDonaldTrump
To recap, that vote count is precisely what's being disputed as fraudulent, and Democrats and the Media, especially
@CNN
, are desperately trying to scuttle any conversation about investigating the election fraud. Wonder why is that?
AND THAT IS THE TRUTH!
Teachers Unions work in cahoots with Democratic politicians to scuttle school choice, which is the single most pernicious factor keeping black kids locked into bad inner city public schools, thereby making it most difficult for them to advance.
10. Apparently, none of this was accurately forecast using economic models. A tax designed to improve health of the poor does no such thing, but instead just ends up enriching the city coffers by further impoverishing the very poor it was allegedly intended to help.
The End
An unbelievable demonstration of the fact that what we perceive as reality is anything but. External stimuli impinge on our sensory receptors and get transformed by our own mind to fit a recognizable pattern based on past experiences as they are delivered to our consciousness.
@POTUS
It is a ginormous travesty when the President of the United States doesn't understand the difference between money spent by Congress (constitutional) and money spent by the president without Congressional approval (unconstitutional), and blabbers on as if it is all his money.

So basically Gov. Cuomo is saying HE should not be prosecuted, b/c there's probably no other single individual who is more responsible for NH deaths than Gov. Cuomo whose March 25 directive mandating COVID+ patients be admitted to NHs was effectively a death sentence for 1,000s.
@PeteButtigieg
I'm old enough to remember how Democrats and their servile stooges in MSM were all having orgasms over the Electoral College all the way up to 8:00pm on election night in 2016. They called it Hillary's 'Blue Wall' that Trump could not penetrate. Now Dems feel butt-hurt by EC. Aw!

With a score like yours (i.e. the WORST mortality rate anywhere in the entire world), I think we can call it a MONUMENTAL LOSS even now, regardless of what the future brings. For shame!

“We’ve ascribed far too much human authority over the virus,” he said.

If there’s one takeaway, it’s this: What matters most in platform governance is how decisions get made. You can armchair quarterback specific choices and mistakes all day. But the real work is to ensure people like Yoel Roth never ever moderate content.

2. Most Stunning Finding
Among those who believe traditional news outlets report false news, most think they do so intentionally. This is not some right-wing survey either. That's why this survey is sending shock waves behind closed doors among the MSM honchos.
President Biden promised 500 million free coronavirus tests, but help is weeks away — if not longer. The administration hasn't yet signed a contract to buy the tests nor has it said how quickly they'll be shipped once they begin to be available next month.

This is dangerously slick. Comey is misrepresenting Barr. Barr didn't say there was no obstruction because Trump wasn't convicted. He said there was no obstruction because there was no underlying criminal proceeding that could be obstructed. Conviction isn't key, charges are.

Don't fool yourself into thinking that your reputation is taking a hit because Trump is badgering you. It's the other way around. Trump is badgering you because your reputation was already in tatters. He will have no resonance if that weren't the case.

Let me first say what it's not. It's not the Democrats and it is not the Republicans. It's not the liberals and it's not the conservatives. It's not the unhinged socialists/communists and it's not the unhinged capitalists.
Then why don't you take it to court instead of preening in front of TV cameras?

This survey tells you a lot about how Democrats think. They are terribly concerned about "Gun violence" but not so much about "Violent crime." Do you still believe the media doesn't brainwash people and impair their thinking ability?
Scott Adams made a terrific observation today. He said infighting may have broken out inside CNN and MSNBC over SCOTUS AA ruling. MSNBC may have turned into Russia today, with Joy Reid looking for traitors (people who don't seem sad about the decision, because they have kids).😂
@JoeBiden
Who is ‘us’? Who is ‘we’? You are supposed to be the President of the United States — of all Americans —- and yet you speak like a partisan hack all the time.
SCOTUS didn’t take away any right. It said it was wrong for it to have invented one, and returned the issue to States.
Make no mistake. This guy is a media trained professional activist. Every single thing he said is a total lie if you watch the extended video (not snippets shown by
