We know how serious Democrats are about government spending by how much they fought DOGE.

Neither party will address this.

Barney was just being frank.

Giggity

So its national Snoofy Day

Republicans are part of the problem. They are more of the problem than Democrats are going back three decades. What everyone (that is YOU, Danforth) refuse to answer is what are Democrats proposing NOW that will in any way meaningfully address this going forward.

Rand Paul has proposed the 6 cents rule. What are Democrats proposing? Paul Ryan seriously talked about our debt and spending trajectory and was subject to ads off him pushing wheelchair bound grannies over a cliff by Democrats as a response.

I'm going with LICE.

But then again, death threats coming from the left you'all have no problem with - interesting, is that not?

This guy is a Nazi. No wonder Dems are throwing their full support behind him. They love Nazi's.

Exactly what the globalists wanted.

Interesting. People believe China cares not at all about workers. This would indicate otherwise.

On the flip side, what would the Chinese government do with a billion unemployed people?

#192 Perhaps.

#189 Oh? The majority of voters did just that, Clown.

Or are you one of those people who believes in election integrity only when you win?

#185 Correction, Clown: The Democratic Party - with only progressives - is nothing

You actually have to appeal to a majority of the voters in order to win an election.

Purity never has anything to do with it.

Stupidfuckdan has a gaping man-pussy.

Segregating people by race is so on point for Democrats.

Propagandized people think China doesn't care about its workers.

FIFY.

There's always been a workers contract. But we run into the same issues as France. Its already difficult to get a fulltime job, this will just make it more so. 100s Millions are on "flexible employment", similar to gig work.

You can see the case where China produces the robots that put Americans out of work. But also where Chinese businesses choose a robot first before hiring a human. Lots of tension all around.

Interesting. People believe China cares not at all about workers. This would indicate otherwise.

John Fetterman (D-Israel), Andrew "Judas Icariot" Cuomo, Greg Abbott, Alan Dershowitz, Felon Musk, Chuck Schumer (D-Israel), George Santos, Bruce Blakeman (R-Israel) Peter Thiel, Mike Johnson (R-Israel), Larry and David Ellison, Gregory Bovino, Jonathan Turley, Dan Bongino, ad nauseum should all make themselves readily available to the public today.

#74 Left Hind Turds says, "...to follow the conversation."

100% oops:

Thanks, Republicans.

When Bill Clinton left office we had $5 trillion in debt and surpluses. He left a plan to completely pay it off in just a few years.

Instead, George W Bush and Republicans, with unitary control of government, more than doubled the budget and our national debt and slashed taxes TWICE, further adding to the debt and leaving America with systemic deficits.

Obama got annual deficits back under $500b after being left with a $1.4 TRILLION annual deficit. Trump and Republicans blew deficits back up over $1 trillion a year.

For all the TALK about "fiscal responsibility," Republicans don't care about it ... until a Dem is in the WH.

Deficits are not a problem until democrats gain power and try to find the money to try and help Americans with healthcare and child care and education and housing and food costs.

But when it comes to War and Ballrooms and 250 foot Arches there is always enough money in the budget for republicans.

Apparently.

NAFTA?

The brainchild of wealthy capitalists?

Thats your excuse to ignore republicans giving the wealthiest Americans tax cuts after tax cuts while increasing spending?

Donald Trump is personally responsible for over 25% of our national debt.

DONALD TRUMP IS PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR OVER 25% OF THE NATION DEBT.

But you can't hold Trump accountable for anything.

So blame NAFTA. I guess.

California's economy remains the largest in the U.S., with a nominal GDP that reached approximately $4.1 trillion in 2025, making it the 4th or 5th largest economy in the world.

Our deficit this year was about $21 billion. We call it the "Trump Slump".

I'll do the math for you. The resulting difference is approximately
.512%

This means that a $21 billion deficit represents slightly more than half of one percent of California's $4.1 trillion GDP.

We could only wish hope and dream that someday America will have such a closely balanced budget.

"Neither party will address this."

Why didn't YOU, when the idea of borrowing TRILLIONS more to extend expiring tax cuts was floated?

You were dead silent back then. But now you're clutching your pearls?!? What's next...the vapors???

Why not take pride in the debt you enabled all these years?

The party that did this will not address this.

Trump is doing to America what he did a half a dozen times with Casinos:

"Casino Management (1980s"2009)

Bankruptcies: Trump's casino companies filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy six times (Taj Mahal, Plaza, Castle) between 1991 and 2009, failing to manage massive debts, yet he avoided personal bankruptcy.

Personal Profit: Even while his businesses did poorly, Trump collected millions in salaries, bonuses, and fees, while investors and bondholders lost over $1.5 billion.

Operational Failures: Critics and analysts found his casinos were "the worst" among their peers regarding jobs, shedding 7,400 positions between 1997 and 2010.

Contractor Losses: Contractors and small businesses were often left with unpaid bills when his companies filed for bankruptcy.

;;

"Presidential Policy (2017-2021 & 2025-2026)

National Debt: Similar to loading his casinos with debt, analysts note the Trump administration's policies have driven up the national debt, with an estimated $8.4 trillion added over his initial term.

Stiffing "Contractors": Critics suggest that tariffs and trade policies, rather than bringing back widespread manufacturing, have disrupted supply chains and increased costs for American households, which they equate to the "small businesses" that took losses in Atlantic City.

Profit Conflicts: Critics argue that, like his casino days, Trump has operated in a way that allows him to profit personally from public service, with his businesses receiving millions from foreign governments and domestic special interests during his time in office.

Workforce Impact: Reports allege that, as in the casino bankruptcies where employees lost retirement savings, federal policy under Trump has pursued deregulation that weakens labor protections, lowers wages for tipped workers, and restricts worker organizing."

"Please show me what Democrats are proposing that even remotely addresses this problem."

Pick up a history book, FFS.

And ANSWER THE DIRECT QUESTION: How many Dem votes for the LAST FOUR REPUBLICAN TAX CODES?

Why didn't DOGE put a stop to this colossal waste?

If she isn't under oath what is the point?

There have to be consequences for lying.

I don't expect anything to come of this but tap dancing sounds and non answers to questions.

Take the 5th, you know you want to.

The word is "interview".

Not subpoena or testimony under oath.

She won't allow that because she knows she is going to lie her lying ass off.

Although I am not very well-versed in these types of politics, I do believe that Barney Frank has a thinly veiled concern for the end of American political support for Israel. I believe that is the main reason why he supports Janet Mills over Platner.

Truly, for Frank (who is Jewish and has a history of deep support by pro-Israelis) and many other senior members of the political spectrum, refusing to support Israel and to be openly critical of its current actions and behaviors after nearly 50 years of overwhelming support is "embracing an agenda that goes beyond what's politically acceptable."

Start with the obvious: The felony indictment of former FBI Director James Comey for supposed threats to murder the president"based on nothing but a photo of seashells spelling the phrase "86 47," which he posted to Instagram last year " is a naked act of political prosecution and a grotesque abuse of the powers of the Justice Department, and everyone involved knows it."

"I've been saying it for years."

You never made A PEEP about the trillions of renewed tax cuts. And you've NEVER blamed the authors or the architects of the tax codes.

"FICA should be increased a half point on both sides."

FICA isn't the problem. The problem is only one progressive tax, and it's not progressive enough.

"I've also been screaming for spending cuts."

MATH 101: Renewing expiring tax cuts while running deficit budgets represents NEW SPENDING VIA 100% NEW BORROWING.

If you're against spending, but silent on tax giveaways, you shouldn't be allowed to sit at the adults' table.

I agree with you we need to get some positive ideas in play, and it doesn't matter where they come from. It's not real complicated. Maximize tax income, billionaires be damned. Identify necessary spending and look for cheaper, more efficient ways to do it. And cut the unnecessary spending, which is where the real fights begin. As with any debt reduction plan, the first step to getting out of the hole is to stop digging, which means this Congress has to grow a collective pair and pump the brakes on this out-of-control President.

#11 | Posted by BellRinger

Here are a few examples of recent Democrat proposals and bills attempting to curb Trump and GOP excess. Of course, reining in GOP looting of America is impossible with a GOP-controlled Congress allowing Trump to rule by fiat and largesse, backed by a heavily GOP Supreme Court.

And he wants another "down payment" 1.5 trillion for more no bid contracts and more fraudulent funding of "Board of peace" or whatever he called it.

"It will be assumed that nobody who is a self-described liberal or a registered democrat could possibly levy a death threat."

LOL.

When Paul Pelosi was attacked and bludgeoned with a hammer, it was immediately treated like a giant joke by the right including the Orange Chomo and his crotch fruit.

The Orange Chomo loved re-trothing photos on the back of a pickup truck of Biden kidnapped.

The Orange Chomo, when Melissa Hortman was actually assassinated by a far right nutjob said he wasn't going to call her family or attend the funeral.

When Fivehead Gates, Pete Kegbreath and others on the violent right all posted "8646" that was okay.

So you can ---- off with your delicate concerns.

MAGAocracy.
Happy 250th.

More: "Never in recorded history has a nation's military been so quickly and effectively neutralized," Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth claimed on March 26. The next day, Iran launched a drone and missile attack on an American base in Saudi Arabia that wounded more than a dozen service members, destroyed a radar surveillance plane and damaged at least two refueling tankers.

The immediate debunking of Mr. Hegseth's bombast points to the reform agenda that America's military needs. There are four main priorities.

First, the United States needs to invest in counter-drone technologies, like those that Ukraine has developed in its war against Russia. The lack of such defenses is one reason that the vaunted U.S. Navy has been unable to prevent the closure of a vital waterway, the Strait of Hormuz.

Second, the United States needs more of its own cheap, disposable weapons like one-way attack drones and unmanned ships. Although much of the war in Ukraine has been fought by mass-produced drones, the Pentagon is pouring money into much more complex equipment, including pilotless "wingmen" that can fly alongside a piloted plane.

Third, the country needs larger and more flexible industrial capacity. Until recently, a single factory made all of America's Tomahawk cruise missiles, and there is a constant shortage of Patriot missile interceptors. Congress should pass laws that help the private sector build up its manufacturing capacity. The Pentagon, for its part, needs to stop buying so many of its weapons from just five big weapons makers and start betting on dynamic tech companies that can quickly adapt.

Lastly, the United States needs to collaborate with other industrialized democracies. Mr. Trump's pleas for help in reopening the Strait of Hormuz from the very allies he spurned at the start of the war is just the latest proof that America can't go it alone. In the years ahead, keeping pace with China's economic and military expansion will require collaborating with like-minded democracies.

All of these steps are not merely about winning the next war. They also can help prevent it " by making our enemies believe they would lose any war they start.

Instead, the war in Iran has provided a road map for any country that wants to resist the United States in the future, including Russia and North Korea. For China, the country with the greatest potential to challenge American military might, the war validates its focus on new forms of warfare such as drones and cyber and space power.

But then again, death threats coming from the left you'all have no problem with - interesting, is that not?
