To fix the insane inflation created by Carters economic inflation levels over 10% https://www.thebalancemoney.com/u-s-inflation-rate-history-by-year-and-forecast-3306093 it's about to get ugly, Fed knows it. its why they know they will be cutting rates so much. its just interesting how they are marketing it as "soon stuff will get cheaper".

ugh. chauvinistic much. Ironic she has Fredrick Douglas on the wall in the picture. Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one's thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down. They know its power. Thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers, founded in injustice and wrong, are sure to tremble, if men are allowed to reason... Equally clear is the right to hear. To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker. Frederick Douglass Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe. Frederick Douglass A man's rights rest in three boxes: the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box. Frederick Douglass Then was also friends with twain who had great quotes on democracy. If voting made any difference they wouldn't let us do it. Mark Twain But in this country we have one great privilege which they don't have in other countries. When a thing gets to be absolutely unbearable the people can rise up and throw it off. That's the finest asset we've got - the ballot box. Mark Twain

Even CNN ran an article explaining how this crap is only making trump more popular and hurting the optics of the ones claiming to care about democracy as they use every angle possible to make sure the dude that got 75 million American votes, isn't on the ballot. IF the dems policies, economy is so good, You should win on your actions. your platform. the results of said policies. https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/21/opinions/colorado-removes-trump-from-ballot-linker/index.html The Colorado Supreme Court’s decision Tuesday disqualifying former President Donald Trump from appearing on the state’s presidential ballot is breathtakingly foolish. Damon Linker Brenda Carpenter "I say that as someone who considers Trump an aspiring authoritarian who poses a serious threat to democracy in America. Unfortunately, many people who agree with me in this judgment — including the lawyers who supported the gambit of arguing that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment bars Trump from running and the Colorado judges who were persuaded by it — believe the former president can be neutralized by appealing to a clause of the Constitution written to exclude members of an armed rebellion against the United States (who had surrendered after defeat in the Civil War) from holding office. But this is an illusion. Trump fundamentally represents a political problem, which means he can only be beaten in the political arena. Efforts to take him down by other means will only make him stronger." One needn’t be a populist to recognize what’s happening here: A solid majority of the Republican electorate wants Trump to be its nominee, but those who really wield power in our system have decided they will not permit it. So far this has only happened in Colorado. But now that a state has acted, courts in other states are sure to follow. I can’t think of a series of events more likely than this to shred the legitimacy of the judicial branch of government among Republican voters — and for good reason. And that's only focusing on the redub voters. Not the huge amount of people that distrust the cops/judges as seen with the defund police/BLM/Eff 12 riots.

Especially now with so many fleeing that state. While on the topic of California. Eff. 70M dollar deficit. crime spiking in cities. Taxpayers, small businesses fleeing. But they got the big issues handled. Made a law that mug shots have to use the pro nouns the person states they are. this could get interesting. With respect to an individual who has been arrested for any crime, this bill would require a police department or sheriff’s office, upon posting a booking photo on social media, to use the name and pronouns given by the individual arrested. The bill would authorize a police department or sheriff’s office to use other legal names or known aliases of an individual in limited specified circumstances. Bill Text - AB-994 Law enforcement: social media. (ca.gov)

That had merit prior to 9/11. Since it's been two pigs at the same bucket for everyone to see

Sorry if this was already posted. If a set up, so wrong to use kids. If organic. It's meme material.
