Jeff Bezos, the owner of The Washington Post, recently said: “Something we are doing is clearly not working … Most people believe the media is biased. Anyone who doesn’t see this is paying scant attention to reality, and those who fight reality lose.” I guess the bottom line is providing Mr. Bezos with a good dose of reality.

War and pharmaceuticals are the biggest money makers. Democrats love money. So be careful when voting so that we don’t get into more wars and have more vaccines forced upon us. Remember, it was Biden and Harris who fired thousands of servicemen because they wouldn’t take the shot while letting millions of unvaccinated illegals into our country.

To Anonymous challenging the Cloward/Piven Strategy — you are confusing the original strategy and long-term objective. They played the long game. A couple of decades to soften us up about “fairness” in the welfare system; a couple of decades to expand the welfare universe and then, at warp speed, extend the largesse to millions and millions of illegal immigrants. Our economy cannot sustain this, nor can our culture.

George Orwell called them “thought police.” Big Tech and MSM call them “fact checkers.”

All of the areas that were burned during the 2020 riots, what happened to them? Why don’t we know? Why don’t we know more about who supported the protesters? Why were Antifa and BLM not investigated for all of the damage they caused? Who financially supported the protesters? After spending so much money and time on the January 6th riot and trying to find Trump guilty of something, why nothing with the 2020 riots?

Unemployment has now been under 4% for 2 years for the first time since 1960. Thanks, Joe! Great work!

After forcing him out with threats of invoking the 25th Amendment, the Democrat “elites” and megadonors tried to convince us that President Biden was the most effective president of our lifetime because he passed trillions of dollars of new spending. Most of Biden’s spending was extremely wasteful, so I can’t call him effective, but maybe we can find common ground and agree that Biden was the most prolific spender in our lifetime.

Section B, page 5 of Sunday Mercury depicts a picture with Nikkole Terney smiling and talking about the babies they terminated at Allegheny Reproductive Health. The abortion industry has managed to sanitize what is occurring to that of a common cold! And as another election cycle passes, the Catholic Church is silent again! Attend Mass and pretend you care!
Just the facts!
Christine Flowers, Mercury opinion, Oct. 16: “Respect Italian heritage, not indigenous people!” Italy gave us Columbus (funding from Spain). He never set foot on the continent of America; committed murder and slavery in pursuit of fame and riches. Italy, besides accordions and Lanza, gave us organized fascism and Mussolini, an ally of Hitler. Biggest lie? “Indigenous Peoples’ Day is imaginary … there were others who preceded them.” Who? From where? Revisionist history at its best.
Can everyone please just stop talking about abortion in the context of it being an issue of “women’s health” or “women’s reproductive rights?” In a civilized society, nobody is allowed to just kill an innocent person.

The whole world is telling Netanyahu to continue with the death and destruction of the Palestinian Hamas terrorists. Thankfully he’s listening because he knows he’s on the side of morality and righteousness. When evil raises its ugly head, the world has come together to violently strike it down like Netanyahu is justifiably doing. The longer he goes on like this, the better the entire world will be.

Star Light, local police are allowed to enforce the speed limit but are not, for no discernible reason, allowed to use radar.

Please understand that “Rules for Radicals” is the Democrat’s fundamental playbook that presents a profound threat to the American people, our freedom, and our democracy. We don’t need “rules,” we need a Constitutional Republic that works for all. So I encourage everyone to become familiar with “Rules for Radicals“ as we approach November 5. “Rules for Radicals” presents a grim outlook for American families and our fundamental values and freedoms that exist today.

I laughed when I heard Joe Biden call all Trump supporters “garbage.” I guess he hasn’t looked at his family portrait showing his tax-evading crackhead son smiling like the protected privileged trust fund child he is.
Taxes always go up and never down. We pay for other people’s wars with taxes. Our wars are paid for by taxes. Congress makes us pay the bills for their stupid actions, How come they invest their money in the stock market and get richer? Wake up America, vote the criminals out.

Jay Miller’s posts sound like he’s sending them from the mental institution he’s been locked up in since Donald Trump announced his first bid for the presidency in 2015.
I need to give props to Info Depot for bringing to our attention that the US healthcare system ranks last among 10 advanced countries thanks to ObamaCare.

Read this on the internet, “Out of curiosity, how many countries tax the crap out of their citizens so they can send money to the United States?” So true. Can’t make this stuff up.

Republicans will change their views if facts contradict their beliefs. Democrats lack that ability because they’ve been indoctrinated to dismiss facts that contradict their beliefs.

It is funny, I have heard the term shoot out in NASCAR. Shoot through the defensive line in football. Shoot through the next turn in Bobsled runs. The term former President Donald Trump used. The one about Cheney and the one about Mainstream Media. Is understandable slang. Unless you are a person full of hate for Donald Trump. God bless and help our great country.
Elon Musk and Donald Trump — two men with 17 children by six different women — are preaching about family values. Imagine if a female did that.
