    Six questions for Congress about their duties related to the federal judiciary. 1. What is Congress doing to ensure that proper standards for good behavior are being enforced for Judges on both of the supreme and inferior Courts of the United States of America? 2.

What laws shall Congress make to direct the Places that Trials take place for Crimes not committed within any State? 4. What is Congress doing...

    Swamp Creatures on Capitol Hill ^ | Speaker Mike Johnson
    You almost got a 1547 page present from the Grinches who were going to Steal Christmas by continuing the terrible garbage that DC has been spewing out for years. Johnson never should have ever allowed this Bill to get this far. He should NOT be afraid of Shutdowns. He should be VERY afraid to let Pork and Poison happen. Without further comment - please download your own copy of this 1547 page document that ought to be the death sentence to Mike Johnson's career if he hasn't made a huge 180 degree turn today in getting his priorities straight. I...

  • Electoral College Faithful "Faithless" Electors as Insurance Policy

    11/06/2024 7:32:20 PM PST · by Degaston · 15 replies
    So, it looks like Trump is going to get over 300 EVs. However, there are going to be Dem's who will stop at nothing still to try to deny him the Presidency on January 6th. We cannot overlook this risk. And there is a solution for this. Have 2-3 Electors, with the blessing of the winners, switch their President/VP votes to have JD as President and Trump as Vice President. And here's hwo it could end up on January 6th: President: Trump 309, Harris 226, Vance 3 Vice President: Vance 309, Harris 226, Trump 3 Trump/Vance announced as winners. But...
  • Deficit Spending on hold in the US House of Representatives

    01/03/2023 2:01:25 PM PST · by Degaston · 10 replies
    The US Congress has a habit of regularly increasing its spending, borrowing money, and increasing taxes. Their pace of increases is regularly sucking away so much freedom and hope away from the American people. However, their agenda of sucking away to enrich themselves is on hold right now. The House still haven't elected a Speaker. How long will this hold last? If it lasts very long then the American people may have some breathing room to actually have freedom and hope in their lives.
  • Is the Federal Reserve really over 1 trillion in the hole?

    11/27/2022 3:34:20 AM PST · by Degaston · 44 replies
    I did some analysis on the Federal Reserve and it looks like a Fair Value on their Net Worth is now considerably less than NEGATIVE 1 trillion US dollars. This means that if there was a "run on the bank" with them like happened to Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, FTX, and many other entities throughout history then they'd come up over 1 trillion short in meeting their obligations. If my math is off then please provide your numbers along with justifications so it can be fairly scrutinized.
  • 4 Senate Races to decide control of Senate

    10/08/2022 6:08:28 AM PDT · by Degaston · 32 replies
    For the 2022 midterm elections the control of the US Senate is the biggest battle between the Republicans and Democrats with the race centered on 4 Senate races where the Democrats need to win 3 of them and the Republicans need to win 2 of them to have control. These races are Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Nevada. Not counting these 4 seats or any surprise upsets (i.e. someone whose odds are at least 3x as much as the other party's odds) the breakdown of the other 96 seats is 45 Dem, 2 Ind (both caucus with Dems), 49 Rep. Details/links...
  • How is Putin doing on ESG principles with his invasion of Ukraine?

    03/08/2022 10:34:10 PM PST · by Degaston · 9 replies
    I am curious to know what the environmentalists are saying about how Putin's regime is doing on Environmental, Social, and Governance matters in their "Special Military Operation" to win the hearts and minds of their Ukrainian brothers who they love so tenderly.
  • Putin getting a Puppet installed in Ukraine would be a hard sell

    02/27/2022 8:22:04 PM PST · by Degaston · 19 replies
    Well it looks like Putin wants to have President Zelenksky of Ukraine assassinated and replaced with a Puppet. I'm thinking that if he succeeds then it'll be a difficult sell for the Ukrainians. Could you imagine if Justin Trudeau were to send in armies of Tanks to major USA cities to kill hundreds and blow up lots of things and then replace Biden with a Trudeau puppet who then says "hi, I'm a Trudeau puppet and I'm now POTUS. Everyone sing 'Hail to the Chief'"? This could cause some eye-rolling to happen and not go over too well in the...
  • Look at the 2016 Forecasts by the Media to measure their 2018 Forecasts

    10/18/2018 9:40:37 AM PDT · by Degaston · 6 replies
    I think its important, as we get closer to the Election, to evaluate the Media on what they forecast, through the lense of how they've done in the past. I hypothesize that the MSM was purposely inflating their forecasts in a certain direction in order to try to rally a certain wing of the voters to be more energized while depressing the other wing of voters to be discouraged. I also hypothesize that they are going to be doing the same in the next 19 days regarding battleground races, especially those for US representatives. Here I provide an example of...
  • Will a 4th Kavanaugh Accuser comes forward?

    09/25/2018 2:03:48 PM PDT · by Degaston · 24 replies
    Will a 4th Kavanaugh Accuser comes forward? Well it might as well be me who comes forward. To the best of my knowledge I've never met Kavanaugh or had any communications with him. Oh and I've never had one gay thought in my entire life either as I'm a straight male. However just the fact that I'm coming forward is obviously credible enough for NYT, WaPO, CNN, and many other news sources that don't fact check things and like to throw up Straw Man arguments. And like the first 3 who came forward I'm not going to make any statement...

  • Debt Ceiling - Line in the Sand

    08/04/2017 8:29:35 AM PDT · by Degaston · 12 replies
    Its obvious that what Trump needs to do is veto any and all legislation to raise the Debt Ceiling until Congress gets ObamaCare repealed. The members of Congress need to remember that they were elected to repeal ObamaCare and not to raise the Debt Ceiling. Why is it so important to repeal ObamaCare? Because its not solving the problem but instead forcing the problem down the throats of middle America to destroy the country.
  • Chris Christie - epitome of sleazy politicians

    07/05/2017 5:28:05 AM PDT · by Degaston · 30 replies
    I used to like Chris Christie. But the very idea of him abusing the system like he did this past weekend is disgraceful. He certainly had to know that the beaches were closed to all the people due to the State shutdown. But His Majesty went ahead and allowed his royal family to have their own private beach party. Such behaviors by leaders is not acceptable in the 21st century. He should've told his family that the beach was closed and that any of them going out to the beach could not expect him to vouch for them with any...
