I support Equality, Opportunity and Fairness.

Equity does not fall in those categories.

Is this the one where negro farmers get aid and White farmers don’t? Oh, just for the record no farmer should be getting government assistance.

“* Addresses emerging civil rights risks.” = Sends federal law enforcement after anyone trying to fight vote fraud, probably.

“Hey Joe” where you going with your equity checkbook in your hand? With my checkbook in hand. I caught you with my money running around with it in your hand. You gonna shoot down my balance because I am a conservative man. Gonna shoot down my balance cause I am a conservative man.

You know I you caught messing around my bank with a liberal man, with a liberal man.

“Hey Joe” you shot my bank account down, shot it down to the ground, shot it down to the ground.

My apologizes to Jim Hendrix and cribbing from his great “HEY JOE.” Oddly Jim Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and Janis Joplin in drug addled and drunken states were more cogniscent than “our Joe” the President!

Biden's executive order is based on stolen state powers imo. Banking, agriculture and the poor, are all state power issues.

But I'm not holding my breath for Trump's first generation of “MAGA” House RINOs to make an issue out of Biden stealing state powers and revenues to buy votes for Democrats.

“Rats buying votes.”

The Republican majority in the House has the power to end this type of spending in the 2024 budget by simply not including it in spending bills. Will they have the backbone to cut out the big pools of discretionary spending as well as zero out the money transfers to Democrat allied social justice groups?
