Interesting video that gives a rational look at what the Greta shit stirrer has been screaming about

Just for disclosure, her mother is an opera singer and a pretty radical left-wing activist. I wonder where she got her ideas from? Think of her as somewhat of a Swedish equivalent of Rosie O'Donnell and you are pretty close... Both the mother and the daughters also have several medical diagnoses. The sad thing is how adults, both the parents, but also other like media are exploiting this child.

Is that Hunter Biden on a coke filled night out...?

This is a very sad day in our country's history, and the next two years t's going to be very bumpy road.

No disrespect intended but I’m not worried about the next two years. I’m worried about the entire future of the country. I don’t believe for one second that the marxists are going to sit around twiddling their thumbs waiting for us to take back the Senate in 2022 let alone the the Presidency in 2024. They’ve got the game figured out. I don’t see is winning at the ballot again. I believe we are about to find out exactly how much we will take, in my opinion that is an awful lot. I hope I’m wrong. At least a unified government is a well defined enemy.

Dark & evil days ahead.

I'm not throwing in the hand yet. Sure, they'll pick the low hanging fruit but there are more than a few fence sitting Dems who will be sitting on eggs until the next mid terms.

Hmmm...that sort of depends on how they actually won these elections. If they cheated as badly as it appears they did, why would any dem now be afraid of losing their seat if they cast votes contrary to what their "constituents" want? To the contrary, if the cheating was as bad as appears, the way to keep one's seat is to vote with the party.

"That's a nice congressional/senate seat ya got there. Be a shame if something happened to it."

Here we go again, and we are allowing this sh*t to happen right under our noses. Inspectors were allowed, but from 10 ft away. Who can see what's going on from 10 ft away?

I'm sure that Kemp & Raffensperger got themselves a nice fat offshore account.

If Georgia was "stolen" it was because Stacey Abrams, her organization, and the democrats as a whole have created a new "ground game" to take advantage of the mail-in voting system. The Republicans continued to rely on the traditional voting day mass turn out effort. Trump, and the two senate candidates have proven decisively that will no longer work.

Moreover, the more we delude ourselves in this conspiracy nonsense, the more elections we are going to lose. There was no sinister force, international manipulation, rogue algorithm, or traitorous Republican at work - just a party organization unable or unwilling to halt or adapt to a new voting reality, and a bunch of Trump supporters who voted in November who didn't yesterday. I think that can be set squarely at the feet of the right wing internet "news" outlets who have succeeded in convincing people their vote really doesn't count. In several key Trump counties Republican voting totals were 5-10% below November 3d. Abrams' organization, on the other hand, was busy even identifying likely Democrats who turned 18 over the last 60 days to make sure they requested and received a ballot. We better quit fantasizing and get to work in this new reality, or we really will continue to lose elections.

Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany January 30, 1933. Following the "disruptions" instigated by his party a law was passed on March 24, 1933 that give him unilateral power. That's 53 days from a democratically controlled position to full dictator.

My guess is that it will take Ms Horrible a little longer because she will have to unload the Bidet as a preliminary step. But then, she does have BLM and Antifa fulfilling the duties performed by the SA and Google, and she has the FBI, CIA and others doing the job of the SS and Gestapo; so I won't be real surprised if it happens sooner than the previous benchmark.

Red Leg, in your opinion are there indeed more Republicans than Democrats in Georgia and did the losses stem from them not turning out to vote? In that case they bear a very heavy burden of blame.

brother, this isn't a new game the dems have recently discovered. How different would our history be if LBJ and the Dalys hadn't played their little games in 1960? We know with an absolute certainty the dems have been cheating longer than I've been alive.

there is no *legitimate* purpose served by mail-in ballots unless one accepts the absurdity of "safety" from the rona. absentee ballots, yes, but those aren't the same thing, not by a very wide margin.

I absolutely agree. However, the constitution wisely or foolishly left the execution of elections in the hands of state and local government. The republican party made no effort to stop the direct mail voting movement when it began (I think out of fear of negative Covid publicity), and apparently assumed (or prayed) its election day turnout effort would be sufficient to overcome the democrat mail-in wave. That, as a strategy, obviously has not worked out really well.

I think that leaves two choices. Some sort of Federal led effort to reform voting practices nation-wide (something our new Democrat "leaders" will be disinclined to entertain), or figure out how to beat them at the same game.

Ah yes, LBJ. The protege of FDR., quoted as saying when he signed the war of Poverty welfare act that he was securing the "negra" vote for the next hundred years. Webster should put a picture of LBJ as the definition of Racist.

The Biden administration will start with a National Debt of $27.7T. Blue states and cities with massive amounts of unsustainable public debt are about to be bailed out.

Student debt is probably going to receive some level of forgiveness.

A massive spending program is about to ensue over the next four years. (At least two)

The USD will continue to be debased. Interest rates will artificially be held down. We are probably setting on a bubble in all asset classes.

Questions each and every one of us needs to ask is, where can we put our money where it will hold value. How can we take advantage of the situation and make money.

Historically when this happens, two years later in the mid terms, things should change hands either House or Senate, perhaps both. With such narrow margins of control, getting a whole lot of really bad stuff done is unlikely.
Remember that the Bamster had full control for his first 2 years and really didnt accomplish much and then lost that control in the mid terms.
I know these times are different, and the dims have taken vote winning to new levels of corruption, but there is only so much one can do but continue to vote.

Not GOLD- commodities with use will be in demand, these are: Brass, Lead and Lead Styphnate. Most on here will recognize the uses for them.
