For New York Attorney General Letitia James, karma is a bitch! Her falsifying of two mortgages for better interest rates, lying about her main residence, the other about the number of units, (no one is above the law), her own words! On the second one, saying her father was her husband! She has engaged in fraud, she alleged in her ludicrous case against Trump! Democrats continue to show that corruption is how they become rich!
“MARINE FOREVER”
A Maryland congressman flies to El Salvador to smuggle an MS-13 gang leader back to America. Maine’s Democrat governor sues the Trump administration to allow men to compete in women’s sports. An activist Democrat judge issues a contempt order against the Trump administration for deporting criminal aliens. Bernie Sanders and AOC abandon their constituents so they can travel the country ginning up resistance against the Trump administration. What has happened to my Democrat Party?

I may take the advice of a previous Sound Off and grocery shop at Walmart. Once again, at the local Giant, there was a sale: buy 3 items for $9. Turns out I got 3 items for $12. That’s a 33% overcharge. I don’t understand why a correct total can’t be tallied. We landed on the moon in 1969, and Giant can’t get the price of Klondike bars correct? Proactively shoplifting to even things out would be a better use of my time to rectify the matter.

Wednesday morning, after a relatively mild windstorm, I am still without electricity. Our basic services are crumbling, but by golly gosh, we have money to house illegals, fund the Colebrookdale railroad, send money for a Muslim “Sesame Street,” pay for sex change operations, and waste on every stupid study Harvard and Penn can come up with.

All this hate by people toward a man trying to save the taxpayers money by stopping unnecessary spending is funny when I remember what another unelected man, Anthony Fauci, did to everyone and nobody said a word! Fauci did harm to us all by lies he invented and if you didn’t obey, they wanted to put you in camps. Now you tell me which one is more dangerous!

Food for thought. Every year, 10,000 homes in Pennsylvania are seized for failure to pay property taxes. Republicans have proposed an end to this tax, deemed the equivalent of paying rent for one’s own residence. What would replace this education funding source is an open question. Republicans hope to place the issue on November’s ballot and are expediting HB900, a de facto draft of a constitutional amendment.

For the radical Republican Sound Offers touting DOGE, here is what non-brain-washed Americans know: While DOGE claims to pursue government efficiency, its actions suggest a different agenda. The organization has: Terminated contracts based on keyword matches without understanding their purpose; Fired federal employees without evaluating their actual job functions; Made billions in erroneous claims about potential savings; Failed to provide evidence for any significant fraud or waste. You are being played, Magats …

Letitia James, the NY Attorney General who brought a very questionable civil suit against Donald and the Trump Organization for allegedly overvaluing some properties used as collateral for a loan, is herself under investigation for falsifying information on multiple mortgage applications. This may be another case where a Democrat waging legal warfare on Trump is the actual criminal. Stay tuned.

KC, normal people really want to know what century you think we’re living in, where business owners (or “billionaires” as you call them) don’t care about their workers? Amazon and Walmart are not paying a living wage. You’re either joking or more delusional than we all think.
Canada picked a guy with a PhD in economics from Oxford. Mexico chose a woman with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering. The U.S. handed the job to a carnival-barking senior citizen, with multiple felonies and six bankruptcies under his belt. Sad.

Over the past couple of weeks, the price of crude oil has dropped about $10/barrel. This should have resulted in a 30-cent/gallon reduction at the gas pumps, yet prices have remained unchanged — if anything, they’re gone up! Any guesses on what would have happened to gas prices if the price of crude oil had gone up $10/barrel?

Suggesting Musk and Trump are examples of ‘anyone willing to work being able to do well’ is ridiculous. Musk and Trump are both prime examples of starting out at third base instead of home plate and then cheating. Both are prolific liars telling fantasies of bootstrapping their own successes; they were both born into significant wealth. At least use Cuban or someone who really did bootstrap. Even Buffett’s father was a Congressman. Simple facts.

As federal government funding cuts begin to filter down to the local level, Democrat-run counties are being forced to question the millions of taxpayer dollars they’ve been wasting on stupid programs like DEI initiatives and foolish Green New Deal programs. Don’t blame Trump or Musk, blame the local Democrats you elected, who wouldn’t know how to spend wisely even if it were their own money. Do you hear us now, Montgomery County Democrats?

It is not that people over the age of 120 on Social Security are not receiving any benefits. It is that these deceased people are still in the database. It is not difficult to search the database for retirees who are over 120 years old and delete their records. This shows that the employees are either ignorant, incompetent, or lazy, and should never have any government job.

I guess Tom Hylton hasn’t experienced the epiphany that most Americans already have. The reason why newspapers have finally met their demise is due to Americans being sick and tired of the biased, far-left activist journalism like the type Mr. Hylton and his colleagues at the Associated Press have been peddling for decades.

The Trump administration awarded Elon Musk’s company SpaceX a contract for $5.92 billion. Let’s talk about Musk working without a salary. Let’s talk about government efficiency. They aren’t trying to hide the corruption.
Jay Miller
Cato, have you heard any political speech that truly has any significant content? They are just circles with nothing inside. Marine Forever, I remember Trump making fun of a disabled reporter. I guess that’s OK. Remember, there will be no pauses on tariffs. My poll numbers are dropping? 90-day pause on tariffs. What a liar! At least Biden had dementia.

Heaven’s Helping Us!, bless your heart! Jaguar and Land Rover are no longer UK-owned companies! Jaguar and Land Rover were sold to Tata Motors of India in 2008! Thought you would want to know! Again, bless your heart!
Just the facts!
Democrat politicians have been talking about reciprocal tariffs for decades. But they’ve never had the brains or cajones to implement them. It’s all been nothing more than hot air being blown up the skirts of their low intellect sheeple just to get their votes. Now that The Teflon Don has actually implemented reciprocal tariffs like he promised to do, leftist heads are exploding. But at least TDS is covered by Obamacare. Dems be tripp’n!

Through the Biden years, when illegal migrants were crossing the border and committing crimes, no activist judges were coming forward to take charge and rule against the migrants coming into our country. Now, Trump is actively trying to get rid of these folks, the judges don’t want to allow Trump to expel the convicts, and this is supported by the Democrats and the MSM. Though we elected Trump President, The Stink still permeates Washington, DC.

Lefty, KC, RealAmerica, JB, Moderate, Jay Miller, Patriot54, please tell us what you don’t like about Elon Musk. And try not to embarrass yourselves by saying he’s a billionaire, he’s a Nazi, he’s stealing our personal data, he’s making billions off of DOGE, he doesn’t pay any taxes, he hates middle class people, he’s a fascist, or he’s going to eliminate Social Security and Medicare, etc.

For the past four years, we were living in a country where a political party and its administration willfully ignored the order of judges and Congress’s rule of law because they were bent on amassing unchecked power and personal fortune. We now live in a true democracy!
