Same old story: The Freedom Conservatives are godless, pro-immigration, free-trade libertarians

Discussed here by John Fonte:

Unlike in both the Sharon Statement and the National Conservatism Statement of Principles, “transcendent values” and “God” are nowhere to be found in the Freedom Conservatism Statement . . ..

It is no accident that Grover Norquist, Jeb Bush, and mass immigration enthusiasts associated with Koch-funded organizations such as the Niskanen Center and The Bulwark readily signed on to the FreeCon statement. ...

Overall, the share of American imports covered by trade restrictions increased under Reagan from 8 percent in 1975 to 21 percent by 1984.

Ha ha ha, kinda like Trump's taxes, see . . . except Hunter Biden had a history of filing late in 2002, 2004, and 2005, didn't report his Burisma income in 2014, and didn't file at all in 2016, 2017, and 2018

Not to mention the falsely claimed deductions, like no-show employees, a hooker, and a sex club membership fee.

Hunter Biden's Lawyer: His Overseas Business Is "Too Complicated To Try To Explain"

The money men have the best Fed and the best Fed chair that money can buy

The 10-year US Treasury note has averaged BELOW average inflation for three consecutive years, and is set to make it four.

This is unprecedented, and shows that the authorities have not been serious about fighting inflation. Inflation is actually what they want when the country is $32 trillion in debt, aka a devaluation of the liability.

Notice that they actually tried this for a couple of years in the mid-1970s, after which all hell broke loose with the highest inflation on record and the people revolted. We got Ronald Reagan as a result.

Inflation is the same thing in the world of money as immigration is in the world of labor. Inflation devalues what you owe, and immigration devalues what you make.

You are just collateral damage.

Powell, a Republican, was elevated to the Fed by Obama, appointed to the Fed chair by Trump, and reappointed by Biden.

LOL, the brains behind Trump's fake electoral scheme wasn't Eastman, it was liberal Democrat Ken Chesebro according to none other than Laurence Tribe

Trump is the biggest fool who ever hit the big time, and liberal Democrats have played him like a fiddle.

WaPo, here:

VEGA ALTA, Puerto Rico — The blinds were drawn at a handsome villa in an oceanfront gated community on the northern coast of this Caribbean island. Inside, a woman’s voice could be heard calling out “Ken” — but no one answered the door.

Records show this is the tropical refuge of Kenneth J. Chesebro, a lawyer who allegedly marshaled supporters of President Donald Trump to pose as electors in states won by Joe Biden in 2020, creating a pretext for Vice President Mike Pence to delay counting or disregard valid electoral college votes on Jan. 6, 2021. ...

The successful appellate lawyer studied at Harvard University under Laurence Tribe, the preeminent legal scholar who advised congressional Democrats on both of Trump’s impeachments. Chesebro continued working with Tribe for about 20 years, on wide-ranging litigation involving class-action claims and punitive damages. ...

Tribe called Chesebro “the brains” behind the fake electoral scheme. “If the pressure campaign on Pence had worked,” Tribe said, Chesebro and Eastman “would have generated a successful coup.”
