CNN needs to do real time fact checking. Just watched a Republican from Oklahoma claim that inflation was at 4.6% when Trump took office, blaming it on Biden. NONSENSE! It was 3% and trending down. CNN never questioned it. Bad media! Bad!

Happy Easter everyone. While I'm not prone to wearing religion on my sleve, this year I profess my faith in Jesus Christ and ask all others who do so to think really hard about what that means. Would Christ support the actions of our current leadership? HOW WOULD JESUS VOTE?

When used inappropriately, as I believe the president is doing with across-the-board import taxes on our allies and adversaries alike, tariffs lead to higher prices, fewer jobs, slower economic growth, and more contentious relationships with nations around the world.

Dismantling the Department of Education will hurt all public schools, but rural schools will be hit hard.

Bernie's the MAN! He's been fighting for workers rights, climate change, women's rights, black rights, taxing the rich, and free healthcare for decades. THIS MAN IS OLDER THAN BIDEN! But his ideas are more aligned with the younger generations. Even today, when Harris is MIA, Bernie and AOC are here!

Funny thing about Republicans. They like to wear their religion on their sleeves, but when it comes to social welfare issues, they are hard core Darwinists. The weak get eaten.
