You may have seen this before, but it's worth viewing again. This was recorded in 1969...it was reality then, but now the socialist/communist movement has moved so far down the road we are on the verge of losing our Democracy. How prescient was that speaker, 52 years ago!!!

Subject: Fwd: SADDER WORDS COULDN'T BE WRITTEN We were born and survived through the greatest of times. We paid our dues and endured through a little bit of rain. Now we're old and basking in the sunshine. God has been good to us!. It's sad for the generations who will follow. God Bless America! SADDER WORDS COULDN'T BE WRITTEN!!! The person who wrote this is unknown, but there is much food for thought. This is all very disturbing. Please read the whole essay. ———————————— It appears everything in Washington is crooked and on the take. Not just Congress, but the...

Taking the long view is it more important to America at this time that the President get re elected or that Amy Barrett is confirmed for the USSC?

The media has delighted in hawking the numbers comparison between the Dem and Rep Conventions. Nielsen has a chart showing the numbers of viewers for the Conventions going all the way back to 1960.

I don't think you've seen ALL of this. In 1987, when @JoeBiden ran for President, he didn't get caught in 1 lie, he got caught in at least 9 wildly different lies and acts of plagiarism. It engulfed his campaign and he resigned in disgrace.

Has anyone seen estimates of crowd sizes for what was promoted as a million man march in DC?

The Federal Reserve, saying “the coronavirus outbreak has harmed communities and disrupted economic activity in many countries, including the United States,” cut interest rates to zero on Sunday and launched a massive $700 billion quantitative easing program to shelter the economy from the effects of the virus. Facing highly disrupted financial markets, the Fed also slashed the rate of emergency lending at the discount window for banks by 125 bps to 0.25%, and lengthened the term of loans to 90 days. The Fed also cut reserve requirement ratios for thousands of banks to zero. In addition, in a global coordinated...

Trump as a “racist” Adriana Cohen is a Boston-based writer and critic of media bias. This is long but well written. _____________________ COHEN: If actions speak louder than words, President Trump is no racist. If he were truly one, he'd be oppressing minorities, not uplifting and empowering them with policies he's implemented that improve their lives. Take criminal justice reform. President Trump led the charge and passed the First Step Act — working with leaders of the black community and lawmakers including Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J. Thanks to President Trump's leadership, his administration has succeeded in freeing thousands of inmates,...

BREAKING NOW!! PA COURT BLOCKS RECOUNT!! https://twitter.com/AP?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor

A bit confused about the MI recount. I read the recount was deemed to be "illegal" based on requirements necessary for one to be conducted. This appeared to have shut down the process and hand final victory in MI to DJT. However it seems Stein has appealed to the MI Supreme Court and my question is when will this appeal be heard and does this impact in any way the reporting of the EV for this State on 12/13?

After being tied for past 2 days Donald trump has pulled ahead by 3 in the latest tracking poll by Rasmussen.
