And all that stuff taliBaptist preachers should have learned in seminary.

Like "pray in a dark closet" rather than make a big scene in public about faith, helping the poor in their communities, etc etc

Walking the walk. Talking is about all the taliBaptists do. If Christ came back to Earth, he'd be "turning over tables" in their churches and angrily chewing them out as utter hypocrites.

Well said. That's it in a nutshell.

The top divide us with social issues and whatnot. It's the top who finance finance and fan the divides vs the rest of us.

The red line is "All Non-Healthcare Jobs"

If a healthcare strike explains a large chunk of the payroll decline, how exactly is that a "Trump recession"?

#11 | Posted by BillJohnson

Healthcare was the ONLY category with positive employment. Every other sector has been shedding jobs.

I knew the morons would lie and pretend like inflation wasn't a disaster during the Biden Presidency.

COVID caused the inflation during Biden's term.

Current inflation is entirely self-inflicted by Trump via tariffs and now this war.

Whoever thought a U.S. president would disband the National Security Council like Trump did.

As a result, Trump's just going by his "gut feelings." Even the joint chiefs were opposed to war with Iran.

The BLS also revised December's number down, sending it into negative territory and showing that the economy has lost jobs in five of the last nine months.

Putin's laughing all the way to the bank.

Oil's over $92 a gallon today, up another 14%.

Release from the strategic reserve.

Not advocating for that. Strategic reserves are currently at a historically low level, so it would probably actually be a bad idea. Just listing options.

A number of countries only have 2 weeks to a month of gas and natural gas for autos, airliners, and electricity generation.

Bill. You're in the 20% of Americans who blindly support Trump.

You have zero ability to be objective.

The man has done nothing but rob and destroy America.

20% blindly support Trump. 80% do not.

Trump would call you a loser, Bill

Comments on FB say they're proud to pay more for gas to help free the Iranians. You can't make this stuff up!

I wonder who told them that? Probably started by some MAGA incel in Bumf**k, Nebraska, posting in his underwear.

Under what authority does Pres Trump think he has any manner of ability to determine the next leader of Iran?

I just pictured him making his choice via a groveling competition ...

One by one, candidates compete to bow the lowest, trying to best even the most religious prayer time positions.

Retired Air Force Colonel and NC Dem House candidate Moe Davis had this to say about Noem and Mullin:

"Firing Kristi Noem and replacing her with Markwayne Mullin is like -------- your pants and running home to change your shirt."

It just occurred to that me Noem is the real life Cruella de Ville

Talarico pointing to the billionaire class who "own the media .... own the politicians ..." as the reason people are struggling resonates with a lot of voters of all stripes.

The economy's the #1 issue. Focusing on the WHY and more importantly the "WHO" is responsible for their fiscal downturn resonates on both sides of the aisle. According to Tuesday's primary, he got a considerable number of Republican votes. Heck, he won a +17 Trump district. Republicans who aren't Trump-MAGA true believers are and growing more and more uncomfortable with him. Everyone's feeling the hits from Trump's tariffs and now this war right in the pocketbook.

Talking about WHO are responsible for Americans getting hosed seems like a good message for Dems to focus on in the midterms. A majority of Americans see Trump spiraling and everything he's touching turning FUBAR. However, now even hicks can feel it in their own lives as costs grow and paychecks don't keep up, while corporations and the top reap rig the system to get even richer at everyone else's expense.

One thing really stood out to me about Talarico's victory speech last night after talking about how billionaires control the media, social media, and so many aspects of our lives, but don't care about the rest of us and our day to day well being.

Paraphrasing:

"This isn't about how we pray ...... or a battle between right vs left. It's the top vs the bottom" (economically speaking)

Also how his grandfather, a Baptist preacher, pointed out Jesus left us two commandments: Love God and love our neighbors.

It'll continue to fall as American pocketbooks continue being hurt by tariff and now Iranian War costs.

A majority of Iranians are 30 or younger. They like America and despise the regime.

This war could turn them against us as they suffer from lack of water, food, shelter, and constant bombs going off, killing friends and relatives.

Gas station near me was $4.79 at 1:30pm, an hour later it was $4.99

I'm recovering from surgery to replace a big toe joint (large jar fell out of the fridge on it), so my wife has been running errands and such.

The other day while she was gassing up one of our vehicles (I hoped ahead of increases) she watched the price go up $.50 a gallon on the street display AS she was pumping gas.

Price increases on top of price increases because of tariffs will PO even MAGAts, who'll have no Dems to blame.

China's Xi could very well be licking his chops in meetings with the military, saying "wait .... wait .... almost" to invading Taiwan.

"He may as well have written "Christianity is a Racket."

I've often joked with my wife that when my hair turns white I could start a church and get rich. Having grown up in it, and seeing TV preachers scam their adherents, I got the whole "hanky in one hand, Bible in the other" hushed voice, forehead-wiping thing down LOL

Zelenzsky should negotiate more U.S. aid from the U.S., Patriot systems, and an end to Trump's bromance with Putin.
