Former President Donald Trump pledged he will never cut Social Security if elected again to the White House in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News here earlier in December. “We’re not cutting Social Security,” Trump said. “It’s very simple. It’s a simple answer. We’re not cutting Social Security.” *** “We have to protect it. It’s a contract with the people,” Trump said of Social Security. “They go in. They work and they do. They put their blood, sweat, and tears into Social Security and then you have a guy like a Paul Ryan or others that want to destroy it....

This summer, the House GOP Study Committee unveiled a budget plan that would raise eligibility age for Social Security and talked about reducing payments for the well-off. Folks, those are cuts - so it allowed Dems to run ads that GOP threatens Social Security I know seniors who vote on this issue because they’re not rich and they don’t have comfortable government or congressional pensions. The GOP doesnt talk about cutting foreign aid or military bases, only “entitlements” for middle class Americans Trump told them to stop that, but they didn’t listen In the modern , post - FDR America,...

To everyone that thinks the world can be returned to some sort of “normalcy”, here is a pic of a streamer on Twitch, licking an attachment on her microphone that looks like an ear. She appears to have several followers who are “paying” to do this while they watch. This world is OFF THE HOOK.

Anyone who disagrees with this fact is anti-white, anti-American, anti-Western and doesn’t believe in law and order or a solid work ethic. If anything, Trump is sympathetic since he saluted a Commie General once.

So I've been watching Tucker Carlson's tonight about the riot at Minneapolis as well as the news article about the death of George Floyd. I read that George Floyd was an African American male apparently was "killed" by a white police officer during the arrest with bystanders witnessing the supposed killing. Regardless, Floyd was pronounced dead at the hospital. Societies erupted with anger about Floyd's death. They protest and riotas hard as they could, even if other businesses have to suffer when those businesses are already suffering from the lockdown (whether it still exist or not). Now if the race...

Toxic ideologies often start around family dinner tables. It's not just an uncle saying a racist joke, or a grandmother determining her xenophobic ideas as “a part of her time.” These comments seep into how we make decisions in voting booths, how judges rule in their chambers, how teachers guide students in school classrooms, how employment decisions are made, and how police react in high-stakes situations. After a year of relentless atrocities that don’t always make for easy conversation at the dinner table, it's important to make Thanksgiving preparations beyond the tablescape and the menu. This year, I want you...

To pay off the ~$21 trillion dollar federal debt, which amounts to about $60,000 per American, it is probably necessary to have annual federal wealth taxation. It is best to introduce the federal wealth tax when asset values are high, so a smaller percentage of rich people's assets have to get taxed to pay off the national debt. The tax might be levied upon the total of net personal property financial holdings and the equity in real property. The rates might be: 1% on the equity in real property habitually resided in by the filer(s), 2% on the equity in...

Captain America has called Donald Trump a "puppet" following a summit between the US leader and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Well, the actor who plays him has anyway. Chris Evans was reacting to Mr Trump's decision to defend Russia over allegations it interfered in the US election that made Donald Trump president - contradicting what his own intelligence agencies say. The Avenger called it a "disgrace". "Politics aside", the Democrat said on Twitter, "This is 100% un-American".

The parent of a child killed in the Parkland shooting massacre ripped New Jersey state Senate President Stephen Sweeney on social media for not publicly supporting Gov. Phil Murphy's push to increase fees for buying and selling firearms in the state. The move, which Murphy has pressed for months, was part of the budget proposal the Democratic governor sent to legislative leaders from his own party in June. But it was not included in the budget passed by the state Senate and Assembly last week, leading to outcry from gun control advocates. Fred Guttenberg, whose daughter Jaime was killed in...

Could a soda machine stop a large-caliber bullet and save your life? Another question to ponder with us plinkers that have nothing to do. I'm sure most of us normal people don’t think of this but if there were a hail of bullets coming their way. They probably would not think twice to get behind it for some cover. Which brings us back to the question. Again, Youtuber Edwin Sarikissian tries out some different calibers on a vending machine just to see if it is bulletproof. The results were very impressive. This metal box stood up to .500 Magnum and...

Over the past couple of days the subject of athlete activism, always present to some degree in American sports, but recently revived by Colin Kaepernick and a few other football players in the form of silent protests during the National Anthem, exploded into a headline dominating news story. Lighting the fuse: President Trump directly inserting himself into the controversy. He did so during a speech on Friday night and during a series of tweets Saturday and continuing into this morning in which he urged NFL owners to “fire” or suspend players who do not stand for the national anthem. He...

Lookee, lookee, The famed, long term small bookstore, Kramerbooks, located in the Dupont Circle District of Washington, DC, opened its doors for business at 12:01 AM, Tuesday morning expecting an onslaught of excited customers with money in hand to get the "hot sell", James Comey book. Opps.....no one showed...not one customer. Nothing more needs to be said!!!

Republican political strategist Rick Wilson has become one of the avatars of the “Never Trump” movement on cable news telecasts. And on August 21, via the Simon and Schuster Free Press imprint, Wilson will have a book to plug during his frequent TV hits. “Everything Trump Touches Dies is my take on the damage Donald Trump has done to our nation, our politics, and our sanity. I pull no punches, take no prisoners, and show how Donald Trump has led Republicans off a political cliff, broken our institutions, and shattered the lives and reputations of everyone around him,” Wilson wrote...

Republican strategist Steve Schmidt tore into Donald Trump while appearing on MSNBC today — calling the president an “imbecile” for his trade wars and adding that he has “no idea what he’s talking about.” As news circulated this morning that the stock market dropped dramatically after China responded to Trump’s tariffs with trade restrictions of their own, the president denied that there is a “trade war” happening, despite all evidence pointing to the opposite being true. Schmidt noted this while discussing the issue with a fired-up Stephanie Ruhle this morning:

More cultural enrichment from Somali imports

I buy almost all my food at the farmer's market and I am fortunate that I live near several different weekend markets. One reason I do this is that I like to support small businesses like farms. Another is that I care about where my food comes from and how, in the case of meat, it is treated and fed. Factory farming is a nightmare. My farmer's markets also accept WIC so anyone can come by and purchase fresh vegetables, herbs, fruit or more importantly: bacon. I gave out bacon from my pig farmer to my friends for Christmas because...

If you read the New York Times and Washington Post, or watch MSNBC and CNN, you would think President-elect Trump brought segregation-era George Wallace back from the dead and appointed him to be the nation’s chief law enforcement officer. (In reality, Sessions campaigned against Wallace as a college Republican, but that’s a story for another time.) read at http://resistancefeed.com/2016/11/21/sessions-broke-back-kkk-alabama-media-think-hes-racist/

If you buy into the notion that carbon dioxide, the food for plants that feed us and the animals we use for meat, is poison, then this notion from hysterical “climate researchers” in the United Kingdom might make sense.

If you think about, there are not many who can give up football because of the recent protest. America has few real patriots anymore. Yes I am talking to you. To take a stand about anything that happens in this crazy backwards world is only for the few and faithful. The rest of you are just all talk. and that is how we got here today.....

Bernie Sanders offers a real solution that the current condidates wont have. Bernie Sanders would first of all return tax levels to the way they were in the 1950s, tax the rich 90% and use the massive massive massive surplus from that tax to create jobs for the unemployed. One trillion should be paid for rebuilding infrastructure and bridges and creating jobs. Another trillion will be used to create new healthcare opertunety for workers to earn doctors degrees and to heal the sick and poor. Bernie sanders will also create government funded industries and factories that will create paying jobs...
