My wife and I were talking last night about groceries.
I went back into my Walmart app and pulled up an order from January 2020.
30 items. $70.20.
I added every single one back to the cart today.
$165.42.
Same 30 items. Same store. Same cart.
$95 more, In six years.
They told us inflation was temporary. They told us it was under control. They told us the economy was recovering.
My grocery bill didn’t get the memo.
135% increase in six years and nobody in Washington has missed a single meal.
So you’re telling me there’s some nefarious stuff surrounding the supposed assassination attempt of Trump?
You mean the one where the cops admitted to seeing him THREE TIMES in a restricted area with a scope & a backpack & yet never did anything?
The one where a bunch of people in the crowd saw the shooter on the roof but no cops or secret service officers or sheriff’s deputies or State troopers saw him?!?
The same “assassination attempt” that Trump had no interest in investigating & even shut down the investigation?
You mean that one?

🚨 BREAKING: Children were among the victims after an Israeli airstrike hit a tent sheltering displaced families west of Gaza City.
At least 6 civilians were killed and dozens more injured, including many children, in the strike on the displacement camp.
‼️🛑I honestly hate to say it, but Thomas Massie is literally putting his life on the line. And I actually believe he knows this quite well.
It makes his stance even more heroic.
His decision to commemorate the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty on its 59th Anniversary, after having been defeated by Jewish money in Congress, is the single most courageous move I have ever seen a sitting American politician make during my lifetime.
It's a stuck up middle finger against 'Israel' and all it stands for, for the following reasons:
💥 the deliberate murder of American servicemen in plain sight by the Israeli air force is solidly proven, which means that the Ziønist influencers have zero arguments to present to counter it;
💥 he is doing it without this being in any way 'necessary', or 'called for', as 58 anniversaries have already passed unnoticed and unmentioned;
💥 he will have actual survivors from the attack present, which is a feature one can thing bring nothing up against;
💥 the effect of this act of insurgency is bound to create powerful ripples on social media, even if mass media try to ignore or downplay it.
Many liberals on the Democrat side will remain silent. Most of those are on the 'has the right to exist and defend itself' boat anyway. Which, I should take another opportunity to say, is utterly fucked up anyway.
Some of them will nevertheless get a powerful wake-up call, and realize that standing up against oppression takes precedence and priority over ideological differences in this time frame.
The main effect however, will take place on the Republican side. For most Republicans, the army is sacrosanct. Many of them have never heard of the USS Liberty tragedy. Many will truly be shaken to the core.
All I can do is pray for Thomas Massie.
And here is what I would say to him if I could see him face to face: "Massie, this is the courageous act of a real man, a true patriot, and a genuine revolutionary. You are a Lion among men. May God be with you."

Jimmy Dore tells Tucker Carlson that Thomas Massie's primary loss in Kentucky is proof the United States is not a democracy but an oligarchy run by international billionaires who sit above the government.
Dore points to the 2015 Princeton study showing the wishes of 90% of Americans are never reflected in legislation, only the top 10% are.
JIMMY DORE: “How dare we preach democracy around the world and tell people that the people in China are oppressed when we obviously don't have democracy here.”
JIMMY DORE: “In China, the government sits above capital, and so the economy works for the people. But in the United States, capital is above the government, and so the economy doesn't work for the people. It works for a handful of international globalist billionaires.”
JIMMY DORE: “Which is why we have homelessness everywhere. We have the biggest prison population in the world. We still go bankrupt just to get educated. You get bankrupt when you get sick. And we live in a surveillance state.”
JIMMY DORE: “We're like China, except we have more street crime and slower trains. And we get lectured constantly in the most self-righteous way by the worst people.”
Massie was the last man in Congress voting the Constitution as written. @jimmy_dore is right to say it out loud.
“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...
The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”

This is a clip that is so on point it may be very uncomfortable for some to watch. However, the Chinese man featured in the clip is saying out loud what I have written about at length and many academics have articulated.
You’ll have to excuse the captions which struggles with his Chinese accent, but that doesn’t detract from the message.

Remember this:
On May 25, Terrorist Israel bombed a tent injured one-month-old Mohammad al-Khatib in his family tent in Gaza, killing his mother and severing his leg.
On June 5, Terrorist Israel opened fire on car, shot seven-month-old Sam Abu Haikal in the jaw, killing him and injuring his parents.
Remember this.
كُنت حامل في شهري التاسع وأشعر بتحاسيس الولادة وقلت لزوجي وأهله أشعر بمغص فقمت بتحضير حقيبه الولادة
ونمت
وفي الساعه العاشره وربع مساءً بلحظة غدر تم قصف البيت واستشهد زوجي وتوأمه وأمه وابنتي ذات العامين
لم أتذكر سوى خيالات أشلائهم وفقدت وعيي
استيقظت وجدت نفسي في العناية المركزة مصابة بعد ٤٨ ساعه غيبوبه تم بتر رجلي ولم يستطيع الأطباء إنقاذ ابني وتم دفنهم جميعهم دون وداعهم
رحمهم اللّٰه
وبقيت وحدي
