Taxation of earnings from labor is on a par with forced labor. Seizing the results of someone’s labor is equivalent to seizing hours from him and directing him to carry on various activities.

It’s sort of hilarious, but it’s also sort of sad. Democrats were all about how President Trump is in the Epstein files, then the files were finally released at President Trump’s repeated orders. All of a sudden, as the famous and influential Democrats were “exposed,” they suddenly started demanding that people ignore the Epstein files because being in them didn’t really mean anything. 😆
Yeah, these Democrats really should have considered the backblast – or is it fallout at this point? – of making a big deal about millions of unredacted, unsubstantiated, and uncontextualized documents, many originating from “anonymous,” unvetted sources.
NOTE: At this point in time, I’m largely withholding any personal judgment upon the vast majority of people listed in the Epstein files, including Whoopi Goldberg. Epstein was a serious power player, and he was “involved” with a large percentage of the wealthy, powerful, and/or influential people around the globe in a variety of ways, many of which don’t seem to have a link to his sex slavery enterprise.

It’s rather ironic that our domestic enemies, the bloc who vote for Democrats, so love to decry Americans as conspiracy theorizing extremists when we point out the bias of the media as Fake News, when they’ve been accusing any and all source of news that contradict their masters’ narratives as being by Russian bots or operatives.
What’s horrific instead of ironic is that some Democrat-controlled areas are instituting “media literacy” curricula to indoctrinate children to always believe the Lamestream Media and the Democrat party narrative and to reject any other, conflicting data as “misinformation.”
Of course, even this horror contains its own irony. While our domestic enemies call dissenters Russian bots or some such, they actually implement measures straight out of Lenin’s playbook. 🙄

It’s an interesting truth that America is so great that even those who hate it won’t leave, and even more that hate America voluntarily come here… whether we want them or not.
It’s also, however, and ironic truth that most of our domestic enemies can’t really leave America. The immigration policies of almost every nation that they’d be willing to emigrate to make it nearly impossible for them to do so.

Creepy Uncle Joe has ranted time and time again that there was no way he’d ever expand our nation’s southern border’s wall to decrease the ungodly amount of illegal aliens invading our country. But he just did exactly that. On Wednesday, October 7th, 2023, the Biden administration announced it would build an approximately 20-mile section of border wall in high-traffic crossing areas in Texas, This announcement that stood in stark contrast to then-candidate Joe Biden’s 2020 declaration that he would not build “another foot of wall” as POTUS.
Now, Biden himself claims that he had to do this whether he wants to or not, which he claims he didn’t, and that it will serve not purpose to do it, but that he has no choice in the matter.
The money was appropriated for the border wall. I tried to get them to reappropriate, to redirect that money. They didn’t. They wouldn’t. In the meantime, there’s nothing under the law other than they have to use the money for what it was appropriated for. I can’t stop that.
But there’s two glaring problems with the dodderer’s demurrals: one, he had to waive – i.e., legally violate through fiat powers – 26 federal environmental laws to start the project; and, two, his administrations, even his Homeland Security Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, who’s always been staunchly on the side of the Hispanic invaders, defended the Biden administration’s wall building as being absolutely necessary to address an “acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the vicinity of the border of the United States in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States.”
So no, he didn’t have to build more walls. He could have just not used the appropriated tax monies, shielding his administration if legally necessary. After all, Democrats launched multiple federal lawsuits again President Trump in a failed attempt to use those very laws to prevent him from building the wall.
What has really happened is that Biden’s handlers, nannies, and nurses have been forced to realize – mostly from the screaming, desperate complaints from politicians and the citizenry in Deep Blue areas, e.g., New York and Massachusetts – that President Trump was right. But, of course, they can’t ever, ever, ever admit that.

“Make Tea, Not War,” is definitely a hot cuppa irony since tea and the love of- and addiction to it has been the cause of war, e.g., the misnomered Opium Wars. Also, the Tea Act and its results was one of the sparks for the American Revolution. So, making tea is hardly a choice vs. making war.
