As a prosecutor, I saw this game play out in Los Angeles ---and I guess it's essentially the same game at the state and federal level: allocate huge, unmonitored sums to corrupt pals [for airport, harbor or blighted neighborhood "development"], block all attempts to question where the dollars went ... sit back and wait for your corrupt friends to funnel some of the money back to you in the form of campaign contributions. Kinda the Perfect Crime ---it's financed with taxpayer money.

Folks keep saying this all comes to an end in November. Not really ---at the very least Biden will pretty much declare war on American between the first week of November 2022 and the 3rd week of January 2023..... and, after that, I'm not so sure a majority of mainstream repubs give a shit about fixing this mess.

“I'm not so sure a majority of mainstream repubs give a shit about fixing this mess.”

I’m quite sure; the GOP are just as corrupt as their cocktail party friends across the aisle.

How do I know this? Their silence on all of these matters when they could otherwise be using this to take back both houses of Congress.

We’ve got the America First vs the Globalists. That’s it. May the America First party win.

They tend to attack the people who are trying to talk about these issues. We end up arguing over who’s more of a loon instead of focusing on the actual issue. Agreed. Both parties are corrupt and a lot of Republicans just keep wishing for a normal where the plebes aren’t looking behind the curtain. That’s so 2001. We aren’t going back.

Walks like, looks like, smells like, the same shit only pilled higher... there is no fixing this trajectory, it must be burned all the way to the ground. In politics there can be no righteous men. The USD as the World Currency is in it's death throws and there's just nothing pretty about any of this whatsoever... Know where your water, food, and community are and strap in for Mr. Toads Wild Ride because as Spoke told Jim.. There's no Intelligent Life down there... time to move on

Hey, as a prosecutor, you're a Human as well. Don't you see the evil perpetrated by the B.A.R. association?

The B.A.R. literally stole my murdered granddaughter from me, I haven't seen her grave, Paul Cambria did it with Chris Collins who was pardoned by President Trump.

Proving he does have flaws, but you can choose to help us now if you're brave? Corruption is everywhere, are you exposing it?

My grandparents escaped from Russia in 1905, but they couldn't excape the deep state proving we must ALL fight them where we are. Gen. Flynn told me this, did you hear him?

I agree. The legal profession is filled with assholes who see it as their sacred duty to transfer money from the pocket of one ding dong into the pocket of another ding dong. As for being "brave" [if that's what you wanna call it...and as much as I hate to toot my own horn...but "beep, beep!"], I took on my boss at the Los Angeles City Attorney's office to alert the voters to what I considered necessary fixes to a bad system--Google "Michael Guarino Los Angeles City Attorney Election." After that I pretty much worked gratis as the dean of a small law school, preparing hundreds of young lawyers to take a very different path than the one taken by the lawyers who allegedly injured you [and, btw, my very deepest sympathies ---sincerely].

So depressing. But, since it is from experience, there is a high probability it is too true.

Actually, i recently listened to a podcast by VDH in which he described the decline of the West and of America. Bottom line: it could be corrected, yes it could. However, it is highly unlikely the opposition Party has the attitude to make a correction. So, we live in the later years of the decline of America and of the West. It might be a little heartening to ponder that since cavemen formed somewhat social societies that evolved into civilizations, there have been many formed that died out only to be replaced by others. Our sun is approximately half-way through its life; we better get our act together if the species is to survive.

Who makes that call? I'm asking for the thousands told to evacuate for a week at great expense, and those who lost homes. Recall two bills in 2016: power line safety and forestry, both bipartisan, came to Gov Jerry Turd. Vetoed both. 2017, worst fire year in CA history. Made it rain with federal disaster billions.

This is by design. It’s going to be funneled back to the states to be used by the new brown shirts. Then the government will declare martial law over “military weapons” on American streets. The leadership in Ukraine is too connected to the US deep state.

As I see it we're in the fight of our lives against the DAVOS World Controllers who want to kill most of us for their warped population agenda, and enslave the rest by their own admission. I will take Russia for an ally any day in fighting that diabolic rot and its lying propagandists, the BBC, per my experience, being the most notorious! So keep it up, It's good vs evil, the ancient battle from the dawn of man with our morally bankrupt government headed by The THING in the White House and his handlers doing everything possible to destroy what's left of the good in the world.

$70 billion more to catch up with the weapons left behind in Afghanistan. I'm sure they're not going to end up in the hands of terrorists or anything. 10% for the big guy!

The Russian helicopters were probably acquired by the Russian arms dealer from the Taliban for scrap metal prices. We bought a sh*t-load of them from the Russians and gave them to the Afghani Army, instead of giving them American-made helicopters. We're probably buying the same helicopters all over again to give to the Ukrainians. Thanks Joe!

I can only say I Am Disgusted. What a waste of resources and human lives that we even went down this road at all. All for the Globalist wet dreams of taking down the west and realigning the world to their liking, then it apparently did not go as planned. So, now the great threats to the world are Russia and people who voted will vote for Trump.

All this to protect the American bio- weapon labs and American money laundering activities located there? Or maybe the child-trafficking? or maybe all three!!!!! Or maybe to start a world war? My belief and faith tell me, God will remove this dangerous, idiotic regime, very soon. He will return the rightful president to office. He will do what no man can! And this will happen before the end of this year!

Might sound naive, but doesn’t Congress have to approve this aid? If so, What’s wrong with them?

I know. Plenty. How much can 5hey keep laundering to fill their coffers? Enough is enough!

They do vote on it. But there’s simply not an anti war contingent now like there was during the Iraq war. most politicians agree on giving aid, so they don’t see a need for a wider debate. It just doesn’t occur to them that people may have issues with this. Watching this play out is just torture.

Joe doesn't bother a lot with that archaic means of procurement or spending.... i.e. going through Congress. There was no Congressional discussion or approval of his billion dollar college tuition bailout either. Doing things 'by the book' only applies to Trump. Biden pretty-much just does whatever he wants, and there aren't a lot of the Uniparty RINOs raising a stink about it.

So THAT'S why defense suppliers are slowing down and telling DOD that they are not going to be able to replenish supplies any time soon. The plan to disarm our military is working!

On a lighter note. Happy Constitution Day! 235 years later and we're still (mostly) here!

",,,since the beginning of Russia’s unprovoked and brutal invasion"

I would hardly say that this line is true. After all, Russia is being provocked by this global cabal using NATO as its proxy. This is extremely dangerous as Mr Global Baloney will not hesitate to attack per agenda and if cornered, meaning that this cabal is in a position of losing their bid for world domination, I believe that they would not hesitate in using nuclear weapons. I'm old enough to remember well, the JFK assassination, the Cold War with the USSR, Duck and Cover drills, the Dooms Day Clock, and especially, in the 50s, MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction). There will be NO winners...

“Unprovoked and brutal”? The US, France and Germany are to blame for this. Raheem, you should know this for heavens sake! The US gave France and Germany the responsibility to have a vote for the Donbas region to have an election as to where they want to belong with, Ukraine or Russia. This was in 2014, so what did they do, absolutely nothing! What did Ukraine do? They killed 16,000 people in Donbas with missiles into residential areas, schools and hospitals, they sent assassination Nazi squads into Donbas to kill as many as they could. Zelenzky is a freakin’ Nazi and the world knows it but the US is now supporting these monsters. I would have thought you would know about the Azov soldiers in the Ukrainian military. Sorry, this was NOT unprovoked. As far as brutal, yes, any war or special operation where innocent lives are taken is brutal. I am certainly glad Putin didn’t do what the US does, where they go scorched earth and destroy life sustaining facilities such as the power grids, communications and water supplies. Putin only wanted the vote, he isn’t trying to destroy Ukraine or it would have been over in a nuke or two. I’m no Putin fan, but he is the only one who wants to talk peace and you have Zelenzky wanting to fight to the last Ukrainian before he takes off with his hundreds of millions of stolen money to Florida in his 38 million dollar mansion. Raheem, please get “both” feet onto the right side of history, you’re better than that.
