“We’re gonna be issuing dividends later on, somewhere prior to — the middle of next year, a little bit later than that,” he said, noting it would include “Thousands of dollars, for individuals of moderate income.” [Scott] Bessent also floated a rough income limit of $100,000 that would disqualify higher income families from receiving the dividend.

9/11 didn’t destroy New York City. 11/04 will. The largest city in America has fallen. The world’s financial capital will henceforth be run by a communist. What could go wrong? What has always gone wrong, throughout history—with no exception—when Marxists/Communists run a city, state, or nation. That’s what could go wrong. The incentivization of sloth and dependency, the degradation of production and commerce, the collapse of the economy, the resulting lack of goods and services, the utter destruction of the middle class, the diminution of liberty, and the evisceration of moral character. For starters. I have long warned Republicans and...

With the complete and overwhelming election results for the radical and progressive left, are we now actually seeing the “end times?” Candidates that espoused murdering their opponents, that cheated while in a military academy, a communist with absolutely no experience given control of the largest city in the United States with over 300,000 employees along with initiatives all over the country that allow them to move the entire country to the left. There may not be any coming back from this.

William Wolfe 🇺🇸 @William_E_Wolfe It’s incredibly important to understand that Mamdani was not actually elected mayor of the historic American city that we know as “New York City” because that city doesn’t exist anymore. Due to intentional mass replacement immigration, New York City is now a third world metropolis wearing the Big Apple as a skin suit. Americans didn’t elect Mamdani, foreigners did. And his election is not the beginning of the end for NYC—it’s a death certificate. Finally, it’s a reminder that everything right now inescapably comes back to immigration. If we don’t stop mass migration and accelerate deportations,...

Republicans have tried more than 70 times over the past 15 years to weaken or kill Obamacare. But their campaign keeps backfiring. The sweeping tax and spending bill President Donald Trump signed this summer got his party closer to that goal than ever before. Though never marketed as a repeal, it unraveled much of the law and is expected to eventually push millions of people who gained insurance since the Affordable Care Act’s passage off the rolls. Even that legislative achievement is proving politically fraught. As the partial government shutdown stretches into its second week, the White House and a...

Migrants living rough near the port of Calais in France have turned down free food hand-outs, claiming the food on offer was not spicy enough for their tastes in an incident branded “very disappointing” by charity workers. A small group of the migrants prevented others from taking the food, leading to the food on offer having to be scrapped, the Local has reported. The food was being handed out by aid charity ‘Salam’. Jean-Claude Lenoir, a worker with the charity described the scene: “The leaders staged a small coup, and prevented the others from coming to eat.” The food was...

Are you pleased with the outcome of the health care ruling by the Supreme Court? Yes, completely. Somewhat pleased. Not at all. Not sure / no opinion

WIll ObamaCare add to the national deficit? Not sure, but I think we need to know for sure before the entire law kicks in. Yes. When taken in its entirety, it's a good law that will save billions of dollars. No. Even the Congressional Budget Office estimated last year that the law would increase the deficit.
