25% unrealized cap gains tax

Biden's proposal is nothing but theft of private property. You must sell your property in order to pay taxes. The taxes are on unsold property. That is what unrealized gains means.

This. is. nuts.

Only complete fools could propose this. Only complete fools would support it. Even a traitor should know better than to tip their hand this obviously. This doesn't do any good for anybody except those who want to cause pain and disruption. Maybe sadistic bastards would like it.

There is some hope for sanity.

Maybe it's real. Let's hope so.

"Trump doesn't need absolute immunity". Listen for that, as it comes up quickly.

There was an analysis of the arguments before the court, which gave me a quick sense of dread about some disastrous outcome that could occur. That outcome would be to allow the trial to go forward. Anyway, that analysis took Trump's defense team to task for its argument for absolute immunity. But this guy says absolute immunity isn't necessary for Trump to prevail.

Anyway, his take seems reassuring that this isn't likely. The Democrats should received a spanking, not more encouragement and support for really bad behavior. Ideally, the Democrats should have a lot of egg on their faces for all this. Anything less just won't do.

Trump is on trial for something similar, doncha think?

This is nuts

According to a ZeroHedge article, the West is losing the battle to keep sea lanes open in the Red Sea area. While keeping that in mind, what are we talking about today? We are talking about what is essentially a sex-based scandal involving Stormy Daniels.

If you turn back the clock to the Clinton Presidency, all you had with that guy was sex-based scandals. The Clintons and the media waved it all off due to its supposed triviality. The President must be allowed to do his job!, they said.

But we've got a President that is FAILING his job, and this trial means NOTHING except to keep the same failing President ( BIDEN ) , in office.

The country was prospering in that Clinton Era. Maybe the idea was to have a little leeway with regards to Clinton's escapades. Now it is struggling, and somehow the GOP is at risk of coming out on the losing end here as well! If this was a fight, the GOP is definitely getting outpunched.

How do you keep losing fights like this?! You lose at holding Clinton accountable for perjury, but you punish Trump for doing what exactly?

Indeed, if Clinton had paid off all his accusers, he wouldn't have had an impeachment trial. It has always seemed to me to be the smart thing to do was to make these stories go away. There's nothing illegal about doing that. Hell, the media runs interference for the Democrats ALL THE DAMNED TIME. But who prevented Bill Clinton from making the Paul Jones scandal go away? Paula Jones sued Bill Clinton. She could have been paid off since that what she wanted, apparently. But Hillary forbad it!

This trial is ridiculous. Not only that, it is hypocritical. The same people accusing Trump of impropriety also waved off Clinton's same impropriety. In the one case in which Clinton could have escaped without even a scratch, he erred badly. But it didn't matter. He wasn't going to held accountable no matter what. Yet, somehow Trump is different. The trial seems to be about who can win. Well, I won't argue that. The GOP can't win regardless of the merit or lack of same. The opposite if true of the Democrats. They win no matter what.

But ask yourself, what does that get US? Does anybody really give a shit about Stormy Daniels and a Playboy model?

Once again, it all doesn't add up. But the country is taking it on the chin, and we have the risk of a failing President being continued in office when a competent president is being punished over a trivial sexual allegation. What kind of crazy country is this now?

How far does immunity go for official acts?

Can prosecutors be held liable for their official acts? That's my question. The question arises as to the assertions of the Trump prosecutors here. It's "We can do no wrong". Ok, but if Trump can do wrong, why can't YOU? He's saying that they wouldn't. Or in other words "Trust us".

Pardon me as I say "bullshit". Also, the bar for indictments from Grand Juries is a lot less than what it is for Petit Juries. You don't need to prove the case to get an indictment. Or even an unanimous decision to indict. Therefore, you can get a rabidly partisan place with Washington DC, and get an indictment without much trouble. But just try to get indictments against one of THEIRS. People in Washington DC vote for Democrats by over 90%. A prosecutor who wants to use DC as a venue has a very friendly venue. Likewise, a defense counsel has a very friendly venue to defend his client if the client is a Democrat.


Democrats! Be careful what you wish for. If the script flips, you could be compelled to fall on your own swords.

The Dreeben Rule: trust the self-restraint of Deep State and Soros prosecutors!

JACK POSOBIEC: After they indict all the conservatives, the moderates are next

Human Events

Yep. It's a Marxist Paradigm. Anybody who isn't a Marxist is "extreme", or a "fascist".

One thing though. One has to wonder who is actually supporting Biden now. Many of the traditional Democrat client groups are leaving. That is, they are leaving if the reports are correct. At least some of them are leaving because there's definite people being shown. At the very least, Democrats are losing SOME people. Maybe a LOT of people.

Which is to say that Marxists are great at propaganda. They can sell snowballs to Eskimos. They can convince you that down is up and vice versa. Be wary of these people. They are committed and determined LIARS. That's why I am posting about LIARS lately.

How can this be?

The polls say it is even. But Trump is stuck in NEW YORK, getting cheered by union workers, and serenaded by kids. He is cheered in HARLEM, of all places. The previous post shows downright HOSTILITY, on the part of a union organizer, to Biden in NEW YORK. How is that possible in a DEEP BLUE STATE?

Something doesn't add up.

I've never seen anything like this before.

AI is a higher order of intelligence?

Someone characterized AI somewhere in this video.

Something about that kind of thinking is worrisome. One would be in awe of a higher order of intelligence. Why then would people want it?

But people want things for reasons that are baffling. Humans cannot control their own behavior. Why turn it over to a machine, and still expect to control the machine?

These are my thoughts. Watching this video is not reassuring. Perhaps AI should be banned, but there's no way that's going to happen. Somebody somewhere is going to develop it, and then if anything bad results from it, it cannot be stopped. Humanity will be screwed.

A result like that could happen with people too ( completely outside of AI). The problem seems to be with people. AI may figure it that way too, and decide to wipe us all out. (Terminator scenario)

What You Never Realized About Dances With Wolves

Golden Rewind YouTube Channel

Hmm. You might not realize some of these things... that is, as opposed to "never realized".

I can be a fanatic about language usage. But highly qualified language can said to have its counterpart in making movies that become blockbusters. This video about that movie taken as a pair can be used an example of that so as to make a point. For if the movie was made too much in the way the critics wanted, the movie might not have sold to the public. The same point can be said to be true of another movie I can think of, which has some parallels with this movie. "The Alamo" was not historically accurate, but if it was, would it have been as successful at the box office? In completion of the pair of examples, with my criticism of the title to this video, the use of such imprecise language may actually help with getting more pageviews.

If movie critics could write great cinema, they'd be a lot richer. Perhaps if I wrote better, I could be a movie critic. Ha, ha.

Tom Emmer agrees with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu

Me too. Jewish folks vote Democrat, so this isn't a partisan thing for me. I don't know why it should be for ANY American. This is pretty fundamental here in our history as Americans. According to the First Amendment to the US Constitution, you have the freedom to believe as you wish as long as it doesn't interfere with others' rights.



Besides, I don't think it was Jewish terrorists who hijacked planes and rammed them into buildings on 911. Islamic Jihadists did that.



It's a fair thing to say. In the Koran, it is permissible, or even encouraged, to kill those who don't believe as they do. This belief is utterly incompatible with the letter and spirit of our law. This pernicious belief cannot be allowed to establish roots in our own country. Not ever.



It is also fair to say that not all who believe in what is called Islam also believe in the ways of certain Jihadists like the ones who attacked the USA on 911. Therefore, it is possible to accomodate so called Muslims. But there's a bright red line that must never be crossed. Otherwise, we have lost the fundamental character of our nation. This isn't just a Jewish point of view. It should and must be an AMERICAN point of view.

I agree with Prime Minister @netanyahu: Enough is enough.

There is NO place for antisemitism on our college campuses.

Meanwhile, at Columbia U.: Faculty members form blockade to keep journalists out of the encampment

Looks like these university employees are hiding something. Cannot be said that they are protecting someone because these are journalists, not an angry mob. Indeed, they are protecting what appears to be an angry mob-- these faculty members aren't interested in protecting the public FROM this angry mob.



Don't these faculty members get paid with public funds? Does the public have the right to know who these people are, and what they want? It seems fair to allow journalists to ask some questions. Or has our government become like Theranos. Or shall I say, Nazi Germany. Or ANY totalitarian government that suppresses freedom of the press. These are Brownshirt tactics.

How to Spot A Cult Sarah Edmonds, Ted Talk

Nobody is immune to a cult. I'd buy that. Not even for a dollar.

There are plenty of red flags, and she goes over them in this video.

Question: What if a society falls into cultish behavior? It's happened before.

They'll say maybe this: can't happen to me, and can't happen here in the USA. Maybe you'd be wise to look very carefully at what's going on and ask if you really signed up for the shit that's going down.

I'll bring it up even if people leave here in droves. Polls have said for years that the USA is on the wrong track. How come we cannot get it together?
