Donald Trump, president of the working class

 

Stonks have really sucked for the last 21.5 years

Average per annum return of 4.77% has been 26% off the long term historical return from 1871 and over 61% off the immediately preceding 21.5 years beginning in February 1979. The Great Reagan Bull didn't even begin until 1982.

The secular bear continues.

 

Phony Russia lies to its people same as the West lies to its people: Demand for payment in rubles starting tomorrow is just face-saving for Putin at home

Meanwhile Russia continues to sell natural gas which Europe desperately requires, and Putin continues to rake in the dough he needs to continue the war and undergird his regime. 

The headline is purely for Russian public consumption.

Putin signs order demanding gas payments in roubles from Friday :

The decree Putin signed on Thursday authorises the state-controlled Gazprombank to open foreign currency and rouble accounts for gas purchases. European buyers would pay in foreign currency and then authorise Gazprombank to make the conversion into roubles, which would then be used to formally purchase the gas.

Fox News freak show hires man now known as Caitlyn Jenner to normalize perversion

The former Olympic gold medalist [Bruce Jenner] and reality TV star will provide commentary across Fox’s programming and platforms. Jenner will make her first appearance on Hannity on Thursday evening.

“Caitlyn’s story is an inspiration to us all,” Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott said in announcing the hire. “She is a trailblazer in the LGBTQ+ community and her illustrious career spans a variety of fields that will be a tremendous asset for our audience.”

More. 

 

He doesn't need the money.

This is simply more libertarianism normalizing perversion in order to co-opt conservatism.

Same as Glenn Beck, Matt Walsh, Dennis Prager, et alia normalizing "conservative" homo Dave Rubin or Pete Bootyjudge's "husband". Let's throw Stephen L. Miller in for good measure, even if he thinks it matters that he won't go as far as saying with the trans nuts that some men can get pregnant. Not one of us.

Phony western nations have excluded just one Russian bank from SWIFT, hard currency from energy sales continues to pour in, Ruble recovers to 84 on the Dollar

Despite Western sanctions, Russian ruble and banks are recovering

 

At the moment, only one of Russia's five largest banks, VTB, has been cut off from SWIFT and subjected to full blocking sanctions, said Fishman, who is now adjunct professor of international and public affairs at Columbia University.

 

The Oscar crowd applauded Will Smith like Democrats and the media, but I repeat myself, applauded the George Floyd riots

 What a coincidence.

Yes, yes they are, at Disney, at school, anywhere they can

 

You'll notice that for Drudge now it's NOT an echo of the eight-hour unknown whereabouts of Obama during the Benghazi attack

 

Obama Aide Pfeiffer: "Largely Irrelevant Fact" Where Obama Was During Benghazi Attack

Ailes on Benghazi: Where Was Our Commander-in-Chief?

 

President Obama didn’t make any phone calls the night of the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, the White House said in a letter to Congress released Thursday

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta testified this morning on Capitol Hill that President Barack Obama was absent the night four Americans were murdered in Benghazi on September 11, 2012

General on Benghazi: 'We Never Received a Request for Support from the State Department'

Live video from a drone flying over the U.S. Consulate during the Sept. 11 terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, was monitored at a Defense Department facility, but was not fed to the White House, senior officials say

 

 

Will Smith should have decked Chris Rock with his fist instead of slapping him like a sissy

 The Oscars have no standards anymore.

All NATO has is 100-150 B61 thermonuclear gravity bombs vs. thousands of Russian theatre nuclear weapons aimed at Europe

 

Russian hypersonic missiles armed with nuclear warheads could destroy these B61s in their bunkers in Western Europe before NATO even orders them deployed on aircraft.

I swear Joe Biden is going to get us all killed

 So far on this trip to Poland to rally NATO to the defense of Europe, Joe Biden has

1) threatened to respond "in kind" if Russia uses chemical or biological weapons;

2) told members of the 82nd Airborne they're about to deploy to Ukraine ("when you’re there, you’re going to see women, young people standing in the middle, in the front of a damn tank saying 'I’m not leaving.'");

3) specifically called for regime change in Russia (“For god’s sake, this man cannot remain in power.”).

 

 

 

 

We're not supposed even to possess chemical and biological weapons.

Russia has stated NATO intervention in Ukraine is a cause for war with NATO.

Making removal of Putin the NATO objective is the existential threat Putin also says is a cause for war.

At least in 1984 when Ronald Reagan quipped in a sound check, "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.", he was only joking.

The Reagan joke was deliberately leaked to embarrass him, which it did. But today's White House scrambles to correct all these Biden statements because none of them are jokes.

Joe Biden is the loose cannon on the ship of state. 

And they used to call this guy a dunce.

 

 

That right there is what you call a lady boner

 

Environmentalists sneered at Trump's promotion of natural gas, and Europe didn't want his Freedom Gas in 2019, now they're cutting deals for US LNG which Trump made the US the world's third top exporter of by 2019

EU strikes gas deal with the U.S. as it seeks to cut its reliance on Russia :

The White House said the EU said would work toward the goal of ensuring, until at least 2030, demand for approximately 50 billion cubic meters per year of extra U.S. LNG. This is “consistent with our shared net-zero goals,” it added.

 

U.S. liquefied natural gas export capacity will be world’s largest by end of 2022:

U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) export capacity has grown rapidly since the Lower 48 states first began exporting LNG in February 2016. In 2019, the United States became the world’s third-largest LNG exporter, behind Australia and Qatar. Once the new LNG liquefaction units, called trains, at Sabine Pass and Calcasieu Pass in Louisiana are placed in service by the end of 2022, the United States will have the world’s largest LNG export capacity. 

The environmentalist wacko Democrat Governor of Washington State Jay Inslee sneered at the idea of freedom gas:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Europe rebuffed Trump's LNG in 2019, preferring the cheaper Russian gas:

 

 

 

LOL Bob Woodward and Robert Costa for WaPo full of it again, can't produce one text showing Ginni Thomas "urged Meadows to overturn the 2020 election"

 Texts don't show.

 Urged White House chief to pursue unrelenting efforts to overturn election...

Madeleine Albright: "I was so completely stunned . . . it was appalling news . . . so horrendous"

 

Look who's talkin', lady

  Mocked Putin as 'small, pale and almost reptilian' in final scathing op-ed... 

 

Even in death Madeleine Albright, who later in her life had said she was shocked to learn that she was Jewish, remains half-bright. 

 

The word "spinach" does not occur in the article headlined by Drudge

 Broccoli, Spinach Wards Off?

Failure by US health authorities to count COVID-19 cases in March 2022 is causing the case fatality rate to soar

 Case fatality rates in the US

January 2022: 0.30% (relatively few deaths compared with enormous case counts over 20m yielded this)

February 2022: 1.59% (consistent with adequate case counting as in 2020 and 2021)

March 2022 to the 23rd: 3.00% (case counting goes in the toilet)

2021 average: 1.38%

2020 average: 1.73%

Stupid beyond a reasonable doubt

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seattle Times LOL on new DA Alvin Bragg who obviously developed reasonable doubt because his own prosecutors suddenly went for lesser charges:

weeks of escalating disagreement between the veteran prosecutors overseeing the case and the new district attorney ...

 

While Dunne and Pomerantz were confident that the office could demonstrate that the former president had intended to inflate the value of his golf clubs, hotels and office buildings, Bragg was not. ...

 

Initially, Pomerantz and Dunne had envisioned charging Trump with the crime of “scheme to defraud,” believing that he falsely inflated his assets on the statements of financial condition that had been used to obtain bank loans. But by the end of the year, they had changed course and planned to charge Trump with falsifying business records — a simpler case that essentially amounted to painting Trump as a liar rather than a thief.

This flashcard was missing from Judge Jackson's Senate hearing prep
