Back from the dead...and really not happy about what is happening today.

As I once incorrectly said “History Doesn't Repeat Itself, but It Often Rhymes”.

Nope. We have seen this before...
The primary reason for the price difference is that the meal packages are not identical. The 2025 basket contains fewer items (15 products vs. 29 in 2024), includes more store-brand items instead of name brands, and is missing some typical Thanksgiving items like pecan pie filling or sweet potatoes.

I have had this theory, for a while now, that the only reason Trump has escaped prosecution and had all the evidence covered up in the Epstein matter is that he is guilty, knew he was going to get caught, and turned informer to save his ass.

Thoughts? I believe the circumstantial evidence agrees

Using data from CBP, tariffs have generated about $117 billion of collections for the Treasury.

A $2,000 for low and middle income Americans (under 100k/year) would cost $300 billion, more if you include children.

The math don't math. Another Trump bribe to the American people is all this is

An email from Epstein to Maxwell in April 2011 reads: "I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump.. [Victim] spent hours at my house with him"

Actually 2016, but the two-week promise dates to 2017.

A buyer choosing between 30-year and 50-year loans with an interest rate of 6.25% would hypothetically save $250 a month at most. But instead of paying about $438,000 in interest over the life of the 30-year loan, they would pay $816,000 in interest over 50 years — about 86% more.

President Trump has said that he would use the "Take It Down" law to censor his critics.

"I’m going to use that bill for myself too if you don’t mind, because nobody gets treated worse than I do online, nobody."

THIS IS THE FASCISM WE WARNED YOU ABOUT

It's bad enough he is raising prices for Americans through tariffs - he is also scaring away BILLIONS of tourist dollars

Are we winning yet?

Remember, Hitler did not assume power over the police all at once - it happened step by step.

And Epstein. Just another distraction from Epstein

Intentionally targeting journalists in an armed conflict is considered a war crime under international law

Israel has killed over 180 journalists and blocks new ones from coming in to report on their other war crimes

Israel doesn't even hide their crimes anymore

The UN must intervene

It won't.
