Like television evangelist…only with more melanin and more socialism…and supported and sensationalized by the Liberal Media.

I guess that when you have people (especially gullible white people) throwing money at you (or the organization that you get to use as your own personal piggy bank) then it must be tempting to spend that money (meant for helping Black Lives and improving the lot of Black people and reducing the incidences of police shooting and killing  struggling and fleeing black suspects) on some sort of huge mansion and other sorts of stuff to show off your new found wealth….

Black Lives Matter secretly used $6 million in donations to buy a luxurious 6,500-square foot mansion with seven bedrooms and parking for 20 cars in Southern California in 2020….Black Lives Matter brass secretly used $6 million in donation money to buy a 6,500-square foot mansion in Southern California, it has been revealed
Emails show the firm wanted to keep the purchase secret, despite filming a video on the home’s patio in May
The news comes as the foundation faces federal scrutiny for alleged misuse of donated funds – and comes on heels of criticism of co-founder Patrisse Cullors
Cullors, 38, came under fire last year for a slew of high-profile property purchases. She resigned after facing backlash from critics and supporters.

Once again, we have yet another example of the BLM people ripping off their supporters and those whom they purported to help. Like a televangelist only more racial.

OilPrice.com: Oil Prices Rebound Despite Biden’s Best Efforts

As of 8:00 am Central 4/5/2022, the price of oil was $105 (WTI) and $109 (Brent).

This is what happens when you let Liberal Academics set policy, rather than people who know what they are doing.

Is working…

Not like he announced, however.

The Price of Crude Oil went up by 4% on Monday.

Not what he told us to expect, izzit?

But, of course, he gets to cut the Strategic Petroleum Reserve levels by 1/3 or so in the next 6 months. Which will, of course, weaken the US should someone decide to make war on America.

Which might be the real plan…One might think that that is the plan, if one were to mistrust those  who are pulling Slow Joe’s strings. “Weaken the US” has been a DNC cornerstone, especially in the past few years as the DNC power people have become more ascendant.

Seems that now that things are no longer politicized re: Covid, the police in Victoria, Australia want to be friends with the populace again.

Sure, that’ll happen soon.

DoYa think that anyone will ever trust the police there again? They were Soldiers of the State, and just followed orders….never questioning as to their legality or the rightness of those orders…or the fact that some protests were acceptable (BLM protests) and some weren’t (“No Masks, No lockdown!”). One was a useless and idiotic protest, the other questioned and threatened the power of the State.

Sure, you can trust them….

The War in Ukraine seems to have put the entirety of Europe in a position where Covid has….Vanished.

No one is mentioning it anymore. Refugees are not asked about their vaccination status. No one really cares any more. Odd, innit?

Such a change from 3 months ago. Almost as it the whole thing was made up and isn’t needed as a Crisis anymore.

Over Lake Michigan.

Soutbound (195). Looking west into the setting sun.

So the Federal Election Commission fines the Clinton Campaign for their outright lies as to how they spent their money paying for the creation of the “Steele Dossier”….In other words, paying Fusion GPS to make up a bunch of lies about Trump.

The campaign chose to label the expenditures for the lies and the report as “legal advice and services” rather than “Make Up Dirt on our Opponent”. and got fined $113,000 for it…which is less than a rounding error in their finances and was, of course, really paid for by donors…No one in the Clinton campaign was in any way personally penalized for their lying…no individual person or persons went to jail or had to fork over their own personal cash for their malfeasance.

Will the Federal Government require them to pay for all the money spent investigating the claims in the fictional (but paid for by the DNC and Hillary campaign) Steele Report? How many millions of dollars were spent investigating a bunch of lies? Lies that the DNC and Hillary’s folks KNEW were lies, but allowed Mueller to investigate anyway….Shouldn’t the DNC folks pay for that cost?

The sad part is that lots of folks, (mostly rabid DNC supporters….. like some bloggers that used to be linked here),,, still believe the lies put forth by, and paid for by  the Clinton campaign and the DNC. Of course, many of these folks cannot tell the difference between News and Op-Ed, or even between News and Steven Colbert’s entertainment program (never forget that lots of them thought that Sarah Palin said “I can se Russia from my house!” as portrayed by Tina Fey on Saturday Night Live…they couldn’t tell the difference between comedy and real life)

The new “Billionaire Tax” that Biden wants to implement…

If he can figure out (and show) how taxing income that hasn’t happened yet is legal, and Constitutional. How exactly do you tax investments that are not yet sold and have not yet made the investor any money?

If he can show me (and I mean IRONCLAD Guarantee) that the Democrats (and, let’s face it, the current crop of RINOS) won’t simply spend it on some pet cause and leave us in the same ever increasing deficit mess we are currently in.

If he and his folks can explain how if that unrealized Capitol Gain that is taxed yearly will be refunded (with interest!) should that paper gain later become a paper LOSS if the stock that is taxed drops in value. (Nevermind any losses due to inflation).

His idea is poorly thought out, misnamed a “Billionaire” tax (’cause who doesn’t wanna see those super rich bastards get taxed more, amirite?) and if he would just stop using the term “Fair Share”. Fer chrissake, those people pay a far greater share of taxes per person than Joe or Jane Average.

Instead of raising taxes, perhaps stop spending money you don’t have.,,,, Reducing inflation would do more to help the average working stiff than all the taxes on the “Rich”.

And, remember, with the DNC types, the definition of “Rich” and “Wealthy” changes as they need more tax revenue. in a year or so, it will be down to those who make $200,000 a year….then $100K, the anyone who makes a wage that is grater than their ever moving poverty line.

“What’s the difference between a Ruble and a dollar?”

“About a dollar”.
