Victor Davis Hanson: Democrats Say the Economy Is Sinking. The Numbers Say Otherwise
Republicans risk repeating George H.W. Bush’s 1992 mistake by allowing Democrats to define a strengthening economy as a crisis, particularly on affordability.
For months now, Democrats have been screaming to the heavens how unaffordable it is to live a comfortable life here in the United States.
But when you actually look at what's happened, it's not true.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta reports that in the third quarter, the economy will have grown by 5% GDP.
We just had 160,000 new jobs. New jobs were created in the month of August. The unemployment rate is only 4.2%.
@VDHanson
Senator Kelly is all talk.
He said the only way to stop insider trading is to ban members of Congress from trading stocks.
So yesterday, we gave him a chance to vote for that ban. He voted no.
FIGHT FOR CONTROL: Sen. Tommy Tuberville warned Americans about the stakes of the upcoming midterm election and urged voters to turn out for Republican candidates.
🚨 JUST IN: Marco Rubio just exposed in front of millions that BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA helped FUND Iran's terror regime and death of thousands
"Every dollar that Iran has, what they have done over the last 30 years is any time they get money — be it under Obama's sanction relief, be it under economic selling of oil and gas or whatever, they don't use that money to build hospitals."
"They use that money to do two things, build weapons for themselves and export the revolution!"
"They use the money to fund Hezbollah. They use the money to fund Hamas. They use the money to fund Shia militias in Iraq. That's what they use. They use the money to sponsor terrorism and assassination plots all over the world!"
"[We] are preventing them from getting access to money that they will use to try and kill Americans."
Obama sent Iran cash and sanctions relief, and the Ayatollahs turned it into missiles and terror
President Trump did the opposite and cut off the money, and today Iranian oil isn't getting out of the Strait of Hormuz 🔥
That's the difference.
NO MORE PALLETS OF CASH FOR SHIA CLERICS!
As I have said before, you are not voting for a person in November; you are voting for a movement—the traditional movement represented by the Republicans, against the Progressive ideology embraced by Democrats.
That’s a generalization, but it’s absolutely true. Defectors are scant in both parties. https://t.co/QeDl8OALZo
🚨BERNIE SANDERS IS HAVING A HARD TIME EXPLAINING WHY HE HAS $15 MILLION IN A CHINESE BANK ACCOUNT — THANK NICK SHIRLEY FOR DIGGING THAT ONE UP!
The socialist millionaire just got exposed again.
Bernie Sanders is scrambling to explain a $15 million Chinese bank account that citizen journalist Nick Shirley uncovered. The same guy who spent decades railing against the “billionaire class” and “corporate greed” somehow has a massive fortune sitting in a bank in communist China.
No coherent explanation. Just the usual deflection.
Nick Shirley has done more to uncover Democrat corruption in the past three months than most government officials managed in years. First the Medicaid fraud, now Bernie’s Chinese cash. The man is a one-person wrecking crew.
Socialists love other people’s money — until it’s their own secret accounts that get revealed.
Share this everywhere so every Bernie bro who still believes the “fight the oligarchy” act sees the truth!
🚨 WOW: DEMOCRATS' MIDTERM PITCH TO VOTERS: "GIVE US BACK THE KEYS" 🤦
The SAME PARTY that gave you CRIME, an OPEN BORDER, WOKE and $$$ GAS PRICES 📉
TRUMP already FIXED THREE of the four 🔥
So why hand POWER back in NOVEMBER to the ones who CREATED the mess? 💣
Sealing the border and deporting BAD HOMBRES isn't "extreme"… it's called DOING HIS JOB
🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent just confirmed over $17.5 BILLION in suspected US healthcare fraud has just been found, per a FinCEN investigation
Our debt is rife with FRAUD! Claw it all back!
BESSENT: "By identifying and reporting this suspicious activity, financial institutions have given law enforcement critical insight into the illicit actors who deliberately exploit U.S. health care benefits programs."
"Treasury will continue working alongside our law enforcement partners to disrupt fraud wherever it occurs, protect Americans, and safeguard the integrity of taxpayer-funded programs.” 🇺🇸
JUDGE JUDY SOUNDS OFF: Judge Judy Sheindlin defended capitalism and American entrepreneurship while delivering a blunt message to the country’s critics: “If you don’t like this country, go somewhere else.”
🚨 HOLY CRAP! President Trump is set to announce that Democratic Senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock of Georgia were ILLEGITIMATELY ELECTED due to massive fraud, following an FBI investigation into Fulton County 2020 — @DC_Reporter
The case has been built for MONTHS, and it's all coming out now! 🔥
Democrats are terrified.
Trump was right all along.
Tonight the Senate is back in session, and here’s my message: Congress needs to STEP UP and DELIVER FOR YOU.
This week, we have an opportunity to pass voter ID. Share this, and let's remind Washington politicians that Americans want us to GET THIS DONE and SECURE OUR ELECTIONS!
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump tells every American to VOTE RED AT ALL COSTS or Democrats will try to open the border and surge crime again
HE'S RIGHT.
"I’ll be out there spending money, and helping every one of them get elected. I won most of these places, often by a landslide. MAGA, pretend I am on the ballot. Don’t let them open your Borders, and allow crime to again flourish. KEEP AMERICA GREAT!!! President DJT"
Pretend he's on the ballot because if 2024 voters come out en masse and vote the same as they did two years ago, WE WIN and hold the trifecta
No Democrat will do anything we want. ZERO!
.@AGToddBlanche: President Trump "is sick and tired of certain media outlets just refusing to report accurate news... Being in the White House is a privilege; it's not a right."
🚨 JUST IN: Minnesota legislators have just filed to IMPEACH Tim Walz for the OVERWHELMING FRAUD he's allowed across the state
“Federal investigation and lawmakers have estimated up to $9 BILLION in fraud across multiple programs administered by the state.
This represents not a minor administrative lapse but a SYSTEMATIC BREAKDOWN in governance.”
Trump on the tarmac, asked if he needs rest after a marathon few days: not tonight, he has an Anthropic dinner on the calendar. Then he explains the real reason he is energized, a two day meeting with President Xi he calls a huge win for the country and for farmers.
DEBATE DODGE: Arizona GOP congressional candidate Jay Feely told NEWSMAX that Democrats are skipping debates because “it’s much easier to promise things” than to explain how they will pay for them.
