The Mercury’s Sound Off for Friday, Oct. 18

The Mercury’s Sound Off for Friday, Oct. 18

Those on fixed incomes will be disheartened to learn that the increase in Social Security for 2025 will be only 2.5%. With elections a few weeks away, voters should be reminded that local Democrat officeholders applauded compensation increases of 5.66% in the Spring-Ford School District. That’s 5.66% in each of five consecutive years.


Zelenskyy comes for another $8 billion for Ukraine, now over $300 billion for a war started by Biden! Biden gave Russia the OK for a small invasion, remember! That would pay for all eleven new Ford-class aircraft carriers and RCOHs, refueling complex overhaul, for the Nimitz carriers! In Norfolk, sailors sleep in cars and have committed suicide over horrific living conditions! Enough with Ukraine!

Just the facts!


Lefty and all those MAGA/Trump supporters, while Trump distances himself from Project 2025, remember all politicians lie! They will tell you anything to get elected, it’s up to you to decide who will do less damage to us and the world. As far as believing anything they tell you, you’re better off flipping a coin. To whomever said Trump wasn’t a felon because he wasn’t sentenced, he was convicted (guilty) awaiting sentencing.

The Moderate


Fascism is for losers who resort to lies because they can’t win enough votes in free and fair elections.

KC


Well, folks, Joe Ciresi did it to us again! He failed to protect our daughters on the athletic fields and locker rooms, failed to protect our children in the classroom and now he has really failed to protect us as homeowners from squatters by voting no to HB2237, the Homeowner Protection and Squatter Eviction Act. The act would have strengthened homeowners’ rights over squatters. Ciresi fails us every time! Vote no on Ciresi.


Kamala Harris’ interview with the CBS show 60 Minutes was widely criticized as a trainwreck, but it may have even been worse than it appeared. There is evidence that CBS deceptively edited at least one of Harris’ word-salad responses to make her answer sound more coherent. We will only know the full extent of CBS’ deception if they release the full, unedited transcript of the Harris interview.

MAGA Gal: Where’s your proof the military has been ordered not to defend themselves? That would be global, not just national news, and the talk of every military family. To all opposed to IRS expansion: Seen the commercials claiming “I owed the IRS $40,000, and they fixed it! Now I’m debt-free!”? You paid your taxes, they didn’t, but companies are making big money on that. Tax evasion is not just about billionaires.


It is inexplicable to me that the party that advocates so passionately for reparations for slavery is turning a blind eye to the sex trafficking slavery of women and children brought to us by the border invasion.

MAGA Gal


How do the Democrats get away with having Barack Obama on the campaign trail threatening and shaming Black people who won’t vote for Kamala Harris? Imagine the national outrage if George Bush went on the campaign trail telling white people they have to vote for Donald Trump because he’s “one of us.” Democrats are the lowest form of life walking the earth.

Ridly


The MAGA world has truly lost it. “They can control the weather”? Really? MTG claimed this recently, saying that the hurricane was concentrated over the Red states. Can someone get her the help she needs? Please? And while you’re at it, ask The Con to stop lying about FEMA. He’s putting us all in danger.

With a scratch of the head of all Democratic forecasting of the future days, if Trump was going to do something he would have done it when he was the President, he wasn’t waiting for his 2nd term. If Kamala was going to do all of this good that she promised, she also would have done it already, just like Senator Casey, Nothing!

I’m an Eagles fan and I like Andy Reed, But since Taylor Swift made her comment about her choice for President I believe any singer, actor and athlete who makes their money off all the people no matter their choices should keep their personal opinions to themselves. I find myself now hoping the KC Chiefs lose.


Don’t let Harris fool you. She is an extreme progressive socialist. She will ban fracking, ban gas-powered cars, she will eliminate private healthcare, will have the government take control of every aspect of your life. Think before you vote!


I was saddened to see Sunday’s article “What is the Electoral College?” The AP’s biased progressive slant of the article aside, this topic is something we all expect to have been covered in elementary school civics classes. So one must ask, was there really a need to educate American adults about “What is the Electoral College?” or was it just an opportunity for the liberal propaganda “news“ organization to push the left’s Popular Vote agenda?

KC, apparently you missed Biden’s statement on why he picked Harris. He said she was a Black female. DEI hire, indisputably!

Cato


The Democrat acolytes attempt to disparage President Trump supporters as MAGA cult members and frequently question their mental capabilities. Elon Musk joined President Trump in Butler, Pa., to give his full-throated endorsement of Trump. Elon Musk is today’s Edison. Kamala Harris has Taylor Swift, but Trump has Elon Musk.

Michael Stern


Hey sheeple libs, if Donald Trump was guilty of all the things they said he was guilty of regarding Jan. 6, why did they destroy all the evidence they compiled against him?


Biden/Harris got the agreement to end the potentially catastrophic port strike. Pete Buttigieg was specifically named by both sides announcing the end of the strike. This administration has quiet and effective leadership and competence.

Jay Miller


Americans do not read newspapers like the people before them, the news media has vanished, I, myself had 3 papers every day. Today I have The Mercury. Contents and cost made the difference.

Night Light


Actually, it’s pronounced “jasslight.” You’re been saying it wrong.

Bill Wilson


I’m all in favor of keeping dangerous items out of the hands of incompetent people. I’m not talking about pistols or assault weapons. I’m talking about “computer keyboards!”
