Trump ran on that he wasn't as bad as Biden nor Cackles.

Nothing is stopping the GOP US House and the GOP US Senate from passing a balanced FY2026 Budget.  They don't do it because they don't want to.  They don't want to be the ones that tip over the gravy bowl at Thanksgiving Dinner.

It's GOP hogs feeding from the trough.

Fiscal conservatism went out of vogue in the GOP during Bush '43, when they created Medicare Part D, and when they socialized private financial losses during the 2008/2009 Financial Crisis.

Austerity will be forced upon the US Government when people stop buying US Debt.  As long as there is a market for US Debt, the fiscal insanity will continue.  If nobody buys debt, they may even create an artificial market for it so they can continue to let the good times (for themselves) roll.

The precious metals markets are sounding the warning alarms.

Imports were bound to become more expensive as the value of the dollar declines relative to precious metals and other currencies.  Except for imports from China; the Chinese Communist Party can afford to price things at a loss ... because they are communists.

Are the Russians gaining ground in Ukraine or not?

WTH does that have to do with anything?

Axios? Pffft.

So where's Bogino today?

I'm perfectly fine living within the American Empire, with European imperialist roots, founded by white male Protestant merchants and farmers.

You don't see the Chi-coms loosing sleep over their annexation of Tibet.

The Russians aren't drowning in tears for all the nations they've conquered and the peoples they've ethnically cleansed.

Are the British of Anglo-Saxon-Norman descent supposed to give England back to the Britons or the Bretons?

We are where we are because, at some time in the past, our ancestors conquered someone else's ancestors.

If the rich white limousine liberal guilt is too much to bear, give Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard back to the Native American tribes that conquered them from other Native American tribes.  Nobody is making you keep the fortunes that your great great great grandpappies made from colonization and the slave trade.

You did not have that legacy admission to Harvard because you were favored by God, you have it because your ancestors made a $h!tload via conquest, ethnic cleansing, and slavery; but, were nice enough to donate some to that institution in their own name, as a sign to others of God's favor for themselves.
