After reading the article on Cyber Charter schools, you can see who doesn’t want students to be the Best Educated. 100% Democrats for cutting Charter Schools, Republicans for the best available education that eliminates the unions from controlling education. If Charter schools are so bad, why do the students come out with higher test scores?
So, Democrat apologist John Crisp of the Tribune News Service wouldn’t call Joe Biden’s cognitive impairment prior to and during his four years as president a “cover-up”…? This, despite Jake Tapper’s ‘tell-all’ book and other liberals admitting as much. Instead, Crisp wants to mince words and shift the attention away from this presidential scandal and onto Trump. How convenient! Sorry, but Americans need to know who was running the country during this time.

Trump is threatening to cut Elon Musk’s contracts with SpaceX. That might mean the mission to Mars is off the table. Oh well, I didn’t want to go to Mars anyway.

The bad news for the Democrats continues to pour in. Now CNBC is on it. CNBC’s Rick Santelli: “The income numbers, really, for the first four months of the year — they’re stellar … This administration is criticized for just about everything under the sun … Why don’t we give credit where credit is due? Income really shooting up.” MAGA is winning.

Costs. The Fall River Reporter provided a snapshot of one burden borne by the taxpayers of Massachusetts in the city of Taunton. Over the course of a year, transportation services to and from the Clarion Hotel, occupied entirely by illegal aliens, cost $8,000,000, averaging $67,000 for each of the residing families. Progressives must be confronted with such profligate spending when they bemoan inadequate funding for food pantries, housing, and education.

It amazes me how many deny facts here without Googling first. An unnamed, uninformed contributor “laughed” when I said that illegal immigrants pay billions in taxes. Had he checked, he would have seen this.” In summary, numerous sources confirm that undocumented immigrants are significant contributors to the US tax system, paying billions of dollars annually at all levels of government.” 75 words can’t do it, but research will explain how.

How does that go — “Give me your tired, your poor…” We should have those words chiseled off the Statue of Liberty. Per Montco Taxpayer and Fact Jack, we don’t care about people looking for a better life. Call them illegal if you wish, but I prefer “undocumented.” Millions of people here and ICE is going after them. They should be able to stay. ICE should get the violent ones for deportation.

Rob Andrews, so did my Dad. He had more salad on his chest than Hegseth could ever amass. He was a prison guard, civil affairs officer, and a counterinsurgency trainer, never a front-line guy. Hegseth obviously doesn’t understand the term “secure communications,” or maybe he was just drunk. Educated doesn’t mean smart.
The Moderate
In response to Mr Democracy, you are correct about the violence perpetrated by perceived democrats. You fail to mention, though the largest political violence ever, the attack on the Capitol by cult 45 members on January 6, 2001, incited by Taco Don aka The Lying Con. I guess it slipped your mind.

Saw this online, sums up MAGAt Sound Offers perfectly: Saying you’re anti-woke is a whole lot quicker than saying you’re a selfish and fearful human being who is terrified of diversity, hostile to progress, and wants no one else to have the rights, representation, love, or opportunity you have.

House minority leader Democrat Hakeem Jeffries is threatening to reveal the names and addresses of every ICE agent. Democrats like Hakeem Jeffries threaten the safety of these officers and their families. Very unfortunate that Democrats hate America.
Michael Stern
Shouldn’t we all wish good things for our country? Isn’t it right to hope that a president, even the one from the other party, can succeed to do good things for his country and good things for people?
True Moderate
At least 44 contracts terminated by Elon Musk’s DOGE have been resurrected by government agencies, reversing more than $220 million in supposed cost-cutting. On its “Wall of Receipts,” DOGE lists 43 of those contracts as terminated and includes them in its tally of $32 billion in supposed savings. More lies and false information from a corrupt administration.

My Democratic Party is an unethical organization that collectively bolstered a “coma” patient over other party contenders to advance their devious political ends. They feature a “Hall of Fame for Liars” headlined by Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who hates the American people, his constituents, and even Democratic voters. And the only thing worse than a liar is a liar that’s also a hypocrite. That’s Pencil Neck Schiff.

Whoever voted for a criminal and a liar needs to study history.

Do you like surprises? Like hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods that no one saw coming? Trump gutted NOAA and other agencies that are constantly monitoring these events. And he cut funding for cancer research. Can’t even imagine that, having lost family members to cancer. Our country will pay dearly for this stupidity. These are only two of the many other careless, reckless actions that he has taken. Strap yourself in, it’s going to be a rough ride.
Bravo to Rob Andrews. What an outstanding slam and put down of The Moderate. The Moderate deserved every syllable that you put in your post. I can’t stand phony people like him.
KC and his/her brainwashed comrades blatantly lie to the public about gas and grocery prices (and eggs): They refuse to accept industry analysts and reports that prices are coming down due to Trump’s economic policies. MAGA: Go Trump, Go! Donny says and Donny delivers! Look at those low gas and grocery prices. And it’s only been a few months!

Hillary Clinton must be livid knowing that Jill Biden was the first woman president, and she wasn’t.
The Snarky Conservative
A Secret Service whistle-blower has revealed that Joe Biden occasionally got lost in his White House closet. Inquiring minds like mine want to know: how long was Biden in the closet?
