"A guy looked at my airplane the other day and said I wonder how many people I could have fed for the price of that airplane...
I replied I am not sure, it fed a lot of families at the Dassault factory where it was built. I’m sure it fed a bunch of families that rolled the aluminum at the Alcoa factory. It surely fed a lot of people at the Honeywell factory where the experts built the turbines. It fed a whole company for a few weeks when I had them build me a new interior. It feeds the families of the linemen that fuel it.
That’s the difference between capitalism and a welfare mentality. When you buy something, you put money in people's pockets, and give them dignity for their skills.
When you give someone something for nothing, you rob them of their dignity and self worth.
Capitalism is freely giving your money in exchange for something of value.
Socialism is taking your money against your will and shoving something down your throat that you never asked for."
Senator Jon Ossoff’s surprisingly bitter and personal attack on GOP senatorial nominee Mike Collins teaches us several things. First, for all the money he has raised from California and other radical Democrats Ossoff is afraid of Collins. Second, that Ossoff knows he cannot win a campaign on the issues and so his only hope is to make vicious, dishonest personal attacks on Mike Collins. Third, that Ossoff will wage an endlessly negative campaign trying to smear Collins out of the race. Let me give a couple examples of how anti-Georgia and how vulnerable Ossoff’s record is. According to America’s New Majority Project (available at its website) 75%, three out of every four, want to limit women’s athletics to people born as females. Ossoff voted against the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act. 81% favor having only US citizens vote. Ossoff opposes the Save Act. 88% believe every American should have the right to choose the kind of vehicle they wanted. Ossoff voted against repealing the extremely restrictive restrictive California electric vehicle mandate. Some 82% believe parents have a right to see the school curriculum for their children. Ossoff opposes these policies.73% favor expanding domestic oil and gas production to bring down the cost of fuel. Ossoff favors phasing our fossil fuels. Finally, 79% favor middle class tax relief but Ossoff voted against every tax cut and in favor of a giant tax increase in 2025. With a radical anti-Geiorgia record like this you can understand why Ossoff is turning to viscous dishonest personal attacks to smear Mike Collins instead of debating the issues.
Hello Senator....
This November it will be 50 years since you were first elected to Congress, so we want to be the first to say .
"Happy 50th Anniversary of drawing a taxpayer funded salary."
That is quite an achievement.
In fact - you are 2nd longest-still serving member in Congress.
It has been a long time since you held a private sector job.
AND yes 50 years ago - in 1976 (it was America's Bicentennial that year) - people still punched clocks back then. The world has changed a lot.
During your 50 years in Congress - you watched as the creators and inventors and producers changed the world, creating trillions in new wealth, millions of new jobs and dramatically raising living standards for everyone rich and poor alike.
And for 50 years you have voted to raise taxes and regulate and oversee every move of the private sector.
You have never created or invented or produced. Just taxed and regulated and outraged.
But thank you for using the platform the "TRILLIONAIRE class" has provided to the entire world for free to tell us all how disgusted you are.
We would never know otherwise.
18 years is a long time. Both Jeff Dantzler & David Johnston went through every season of that wilderness. Two men who have given their souls to Georgia athletics, who called thousands of pitches when the stands weren’t full, are back home in Omaha. @jeffdantzlertv@djohnstonuga
Never forget:
Because of Brian Kemp, Brad Raffensperger, and the RINOs running Georgia, we have two radical Democrats in the U.S. Senate right now.
Georgia is a red state and we have ZERO representation in the Senate.
And now on runoff day, June 16th, they’re trying to crown their next batch of insiders: Rick Jackson for Governor and Derek Dooley for Senate.
Don’t let them do it again, Georgia.
Vote @burtjonesforga and @MikeCollinsGA
Barbara Walters once wrote that many Americans have forgotten — and many others were never taught — how Jane Fonda’s actions during the Vietnam War were viewed by countless POWs and veterans.
One of the most widely repeated accounts comes from Air Force pilot Jerry Driscoll, a POW held in the “Hanoi Hilton.” According to the story, he was cleaned up and forced to appear before Jane Fonda during her visit to North Vietnam. When ordered to praise his captors’ “humane treatment,” he instead spat at her. He was reportedly beaten severely afterward, suffering injuries that permanently affected his vision and ended his flying career.
Another former POW, Colonel Larry Carrigan, described how prisoners secretly passed Jane Fonda slips of paper containing their Social Security numbers in hopes of proving to the world they were alive. The story claims she later handed those papers over to North Vietnamese officers, resulting in brutal beatings for the men involved. Carrigan survived. Others allegedly did not.
Former civilian adviser Michael Benge, who was imprisoned for more than five years, also spoke publicly about his experience. He said he agreed to meet with Fonda because he wanted to tell her the truth about the treatment POWs endured — not the “humane and lenient” image being presented for propaganda purposes. According to Benge, he was severely punished before any meeting could happen.
For many veterans and military families, Jane Fonda’s 1972 trip to Hanoi became a symbol of betrayal during a painful chapter in American history. While supporters viewed her as an antiwar activist protesting U.S. policy, critics believed her actions crossed the line into giving aid and comfort to America’s enemy during wartime.
Decades later, the anger and controversy surrounding “Hanoi Jane” still remain powerful for many who served, suffered, or lost loved ones during the Vietnam War. Whatever one’s political views may be, the experiences of POWs and veterans deserve to be remembered and treated with respect.
